Nice game but Allen needs to pass
TFBillsfan replied to Niagara Dude's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I hope most realize with Allen’s running capabilities, this will open up the passing game. Teams are going to have to start spying on him, which opens up the passing lanes. Takeaway penalties on multiple successful passes and the kid had a helluva game. It’s his rookie year and I for one can’t wait for a whole offseason, training camp combined with an upgraded roster on offense. -
Agree. Need to invest in a stud OT in the draft. Maybe center in 3rd and sign a OG in FA if possible. They’ve invested on the DL side (Shaq, Harrison, Star, Hughes, Murphy and Gaines) They MUST invest in the OL this offseason!

Peterman might start against the Jets this week - McDermott
TFBillsfan replied to wppete's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Honestly does anyone truly care if it’s NP, Anderson or Barkley? At this point chalk up another L, let the Jets defense paid their stats and move a step closer to locking in a top 3 draft pick or better. During the bye week, get Allen ready for the last six games. Will most likely record the game rather than watch this pee wee level offense struggle to do basic things. Gotta love the process right now! -
Assuming we end up in the draft range of 3-5, I’d prefer we trade down. Get a plug and play OT and a reliable TE or WR that can be your go to for Allen with your two picks in the first round. 2nd round I add a WR or TE depending on what you did with your second pick in the first round. Third round draft a center. Address OG in FA. Add another WR thru FA. Address CB in FA as well. Draft a RB in the fourth round. Shoring up the OL would be a great foundation for JA and the running game. Adding a WR and TE in the draft along with another FA WR could instantly change the offense assuming you add three new pieces to the OL. I’d keep Clay and Croom as TE’s along with Zay. DiMarco, Benjamin, Ducasse, Logan and Mills can all go. In addition Crossman and Castillo need to be shown the door.

THE ROCKPILE REVIEW - Just Plain Bad
TFBillsfan replied to Shaw66's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Agree with what you wrote Shaw. I had a strong belief that McDermott was finally the right coach. However with each game my confidence is eroding more and more.You can talk process all you want but 25 games into his HC tenure what’s changed? Down 28 to 0 and you kick a FG? Players don’t line up properly and continue to make self inflicted penalties before the ball is even snapped. The number of blowouts is extremely alarming, you draft a rookie QB that you state you have a plan for but abandon that plan after half a game and throw him to the wolves. You’ve built one of the worst offenses in modern day NFL. But yet you want everyone to trust the process when the HC coach makes idiotic statements that he can win with NP. You cut OLeary but keep Logan Thomas and the list goes on and on. The GM is a ghost for the majority of the regular season. Been a fan of the Bills since 1988 but my desire to watch any more games this year has hit rock bottom. Can anyone really state they are confident any longer that McDermott and Beane know what the same hell they are doing? I’m not sure they truly know what a NFL is! -
The number of blowout losses under McBean is astounding
TFBillsfan replied to saundena's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
This article is spot on. I keep asking the same question....McDermott acts like we have a bunch of rookies and 2nd year players starting as each game he makes the statement we have a lot of young players. WHO exactly is he referencing? Allen, Jones and Dawkins on O, White, Milano and Edmunds on D? The majority of the starters are very experienced! How they are losing, the Qb plan for Josh and his comments postgame are very concerning! Is he not able to see what everyone else sees? -
Trade down and acquire more picks. Get your starting OT in the draft. Sign a FA OG. Draft WR and TE with next two picks. Sign two FA Wr’s. Add RB, OLB, CB with other picks. Fill in with FA where needed. Bills have Hughes, Lawson, Murphy, Harrison and Phillips plus Star. More talent there than anywhere else on the roster.
-
The “unofficial” tank is in full effect. When you assemble an offense this bad in today’s NFL, how do you expect to win! Only 9 more games to go with this mess. MCDermott and Beane better get it done in the offseason or their tenure will be short. What they have done at the QB and WR positions is an embarrassment. I’m in no hurry to rush Josh Allen back out into this dumpster fire!

We finally have a great chance at the #1 overall pick
TFBillsfan replied to LFC24's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I don’t have as much confidence regarding Anderson as some do. Right now we are trending for a pick in the top 5. IMO, draft stud OT with your 1st pick, acquire OG in free agency. Draft WR or TE in the 2nd, sign another FA WR, draft in 3rd or 4th round OLB or CB or sign in FA. Resign Anderson as experienced QB, resign Phillip Gaines as DT. Keep Shady and sign some another RB as depth. IMO, DL is not a critical need based upon who we have and the results we are seeing. I also wonder what signing drama will come with Bosa? -
I actually disagree. Everyone was up in arms about his accuracy. Overall, his accuracy has been acceptable. Most fans say they have patience but most don’t. He’s not a turnover machine and when given time he has produced. He’s played against some tough defenses out of the gate and for the majority of the games they’ve been competitive. Yes, he can get better at reading defenses, staying in the pocket but compared to the other rookies this year, he’s right there with them and that’s with a junk offense and a rookie OC. It’s a learning year in which there are going to be highs and lows! He has all the qualities and athleticism to continue improving.
-
Imagine if any other player on the roster got torched for 10 Td’s in 4 games, fumbled 10 times in 4 games, they would be cut immediately, yet somehow NP gets to stay on the roster with his play. Lunacy is correct. It’s an embarrassment our head coach can’t see that NP has no business being on any NFL roster! Belichek would of released him at halftime in SD! Decisions like this make me untrust the process and SMH!
-
If the reports are accurate, it would make sense to bring him back after the bye week or wait another week and face the Dolphins. The next 5 games are going to be even worse. Not sure how McDermott and Beane keep the team tight as right now they odds are they may go winless while Allen sits. At this point it’s all about the future so no rush to throw him back into the dumpster fire on offense! If Peterman EVER starts another game for the Bills, McDermott and Beane should be fired immediately! The kid wouldn’t even make it on a team’s PS, let alone be a backup!

How much blame does Daboll deserve?
TFBillsfan replied to RosenNOTchosen1's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
IMO, he deserves just as much of the blame as anyone else. Players not lining up correctly, few rub routes, screens, short passes, reverse direction, motion, etc. Yes, talent is lacking but he continues to try to throw deep routes with WR’s who can’t separate, an OL that struggles to block and a QB who is still learning. The deep out he called with NP in the game was inexcusable and down right idiotic. Everyone knows NP can’t make that throw except NP, McDermott and Daboll! -
WGR just trying to stir the pot! Would be idiotic for the Bills to play Anderson or Peterman at any point this year unless Josh is injured! The kid is a rookie playing the most important position on the team with few players on offense to lean on. For all the moaning and groaning about his play against the Titans, he wasn’t asked to do a whole lot. He led them to three scores and a game winning drive. Plus a botched FG which would have been four scores against a team that was 3-1. Some of you need patience!

Derek Anderson to sign with Bills per Mort
TFBillsfan replied to billieve420's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
If they sign Anderson, I would think NP goes to the practice squad as no other team is going to pick him up. Waste of a roster spot otherwise. -
Was out of town this weekend, but recorded the game and watched it late last night. Josh is obviously still developing but overall he is growing. Complain about the playcalling and not throwing the ball all you want, but he’s still developing even with this gameplan. Anyone remember Big Ben’s first year? He rarely threw more than 10 passes a game. It’s providing Josh with more confidence, smaller sample size of his throws to assess in the film room and allowing him to mature reading defenses more effectively. I’d prefer the Bills to take this approach compared to getting sacked 5 times per game with a receiving core that is weak. Asking him to throw it 25+ per game with our current offensive talent is trying to fit a square peg in a round hole! Have some patience and enjoy this season for what it is. They are a major work in progress. Defense looks like it’s corrected itself. Never expected Josh to come in day one a lite it up but he is by far the most talented QB, we’ve had since Kelly. IMO, I look at Josh as a glass half full not half empty and overall like what I seem from him thus far. 2-2 as a starter with 5 TD’s. Expect with an upgraded OL and receiving core in his 2nd season and a year of experience plus another full offseason to grow, I’m excited about our future! BTW....love the Bills bringing in Anderson to help this young man develop and lean on a experienced vet!

Realistic trade option...Charles Clay?
TFBillsfan replied to Alphadawg7's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I don’t understand all the criticism regarding Clay. I get he’s not an all-pro TE but the last few years besides McCoy, he is one of our most reliable receivers. IMO, Clay is very low on the list of our offensive issues. RT, C, both OG’s, and the majority of our WR’s. Add in a struggling OC and it’s not much better than a collegiate offense! If you move Shady and Clay you might as well start Peterman the rest of the year and let Josh watch and learn! -
I know it’s common sense, but it is absolutely critical the Bills acquiring offensive difference makers on offense thru the draft and FA this offseason. They have no excuses. It’s an offense based scoring league. While the defense isn’t top five it should be sufficient. Add a OLB and CB and everything else should be offensive based! Screw it up and McDermott’s time as the HC will be short!
