Had that same exact thought today. Problem is they will still need more help at wideout. Id be more than happy to move Diggs for Hopkins.

How would it go over him if everytime he didnt get separation Josh decided to scream in his face? He is only focusing on the plays where Josh doesnt see him, he isnt keeping in mind the times he didn't keep up his end of the bargain. Said it yesterday, there were 52 guys on the roster yesterday who were hurt, and they all are competitive. The difference between those guys and Diggs is they dont think they are more important than the other 52 guys. How many guys in that building, including the coaches do you think like to lose? The team lost 4 of 18 games this year. Time to grow thicker skin and move on without pointing fingers. Every guy on that sideline could have done more to help win that football game, including #14.

Going to be very interesting if Diggs doesnt show up.

I mean they made it just as far as we did this year. So Id say we arent that different.

Losing Franchise? They are far from a losing franchise. Also, I'd say Diggs is a lot more stuck with the Bills than any fan is.

He's not Chris Jones because they play vastly different positions. DaQuan Jones is a space eating 1 technique and Chris Jones is a up field pass rusher who has played both 3 tech and Edge in the Chiefs defense.

But he doesnt. So in totality, which is what people remember, Mahomes is better than Allen. I still think Josh is the 2nd best QB in the league, but he isnt as good as Mahomes, sorry.

Bills can open up plenty of cap space by restructuring contracts. That said, they need to go get guards and wideouts. I am sick of paying defensive players.

What does this have to do with the John Wawrow rumors?

So drop everyone into coverage or bring the house but don't try exotic delayed blitzes that don't get there anyways.

Critiquing the draft is one of the more impossible things to do when it comes to analysis in football. So many different variables, first and foremost the hit rate is incredibly low. Then, where did the team pick, who was available, and how much opportunity has the player received from the coaching staff. I think if you really go back and look at what Beane has done since 2018, I wouldnt say the drafting is below average.

Agree with you here. Tackling has been putrid all season.

Linebackers, Punter, Defensive Tackle, Running Backs were a push,

I mean you have to win regular season games to get to the playoffs, and the more you win them the higher your seed is. So yes, I think it plays a large part in success. They've been in the final eight teams left 3 of the last 4 years. Everyone here vastly undersells how hard it is to get to and win a Super Bowl. The greatest player to ever play this game has been on the wrong side of that 16 of 23 years. If someone told you 30% success rate was elite at anything wouldn't you just look at them like they were missing a brain? Like it or not, this team has been successful in terms of what that word means in the NFL. I am not rushing to sign up for another drought, or changing for the sake of change.

Greg Cosell said it on OBL. The Bills offense is based in a state of chaos. There is no rhyme or reason to it. When the Bills were really cooking in 2020-2021 you saw an offense fully developed and a QB thriving in it. Right now, its snap the ball and hope Josh can do something with it after the play breaks down. They need some cohesion.

I think they'll still be a 12-13 win team next year. Have some things to work on but they will be back. Go Bills!

Thats what happens when you start the game down 14. They were chasing them all game.

You had me until you said Cincy's WR crew isnt any better and may be worse than Buffalo's. Chase is just as good as Diggs, Higgins is light years better than Davis, McKenzie shouldnt even be spoken about in the same conversation as Boyd and Hurst is just as good as Knox. Burrow is working with a hell of a lot more than Josh.

He didnt run nearly enough all post season. He is not a good enough timing passer to not run as well, thats what makes him a top level QB. Without the running he isnt in the same category of QB. He has shown the last two years that he isnt accurate enough to be elite without the running.

I disagree with anyone saying we need to fire the coaches. They do need to fix the lines on both sides of the ball. But more than anything they need to figure out how to outscore everyone, because defense is just to finicky to count on. I am fine with them not resigning Poyer, and Edmunds. I am fine with them moving on from Ed Oliver. As long as that means a better Oline and Deandre Hopkins.

He had 5 in 7 games with him and 3 in 5 games without him. So, he actually had a better rate without him. Still trying to figure out how 8 sacks in 14 games is elite. Including a whopping 3 tackles and no sacks in two playoff games. Thats just me though. Meanwhile the lone elite player that had on their defense this year, who just happens to be a linebacker had 3 sacks in 2 playoff games.

No we wouldnt have. The game would have been the exact same. The weather wasnt the issue. The Bills were shot. They had no fight in them once so ever.

They are more than just a Von Miller away on the defensive line alone. They cant get pressure up the middle, and they cant get pressure off the edge without him.

I felt the same. It highlights a big problem around the way the Bills are built, they cant overwhelm anyone physically. Neither line can control the line of scrimmage. The momentum has to come solely from 17 and that was off the table today. They have a lot of work to do going forward.

Yeah this is just stupid. They dont "have to go" because they arent going anywhere. They've made the playoffs in 5 of the 6 years, won a higher percentage of regular season games than any coach and GM combo in Bills history, and drafted a franchise QB. Pretty sure they arent going anywhere.
