    He got more money and left buffalo after great play for us on the field because we couldn't afford him. 

    yes, he went to poverty franchises... hope he learned a lesson -- money isn't everything. 

    What does this post do to prove your point though? Nadda..

     

    We could afford him... the year he left we picked up Diggs and extended Tre. 

    The post proves my point from 2 years ago saying that he wasnt worth it and sucks.

  2. LOL

    I can't believe the love-fest for this guy.

    Do any of you remember 2 years ago when it seemed like half this board thought that it'd be a great idea to give this guy 12M+ a year?

    Then he went to MIAMI AND THE JETS for 2 years!

    This guy is average at best. 

     

    I think half this board is confusing Shaq Lawson with Shaquille O'neal.

    Just because they have the same first name, doesn't mean they'll have the same results.

    The problem isn't the rotation. It is the talent. Ed Oliver apart the guys just are not that good. 

     

    Two has beens on the edge. Groot who had a nice rookie year but is still developing. Boogie also a rookie and AJE who is running out of chances. 

     

    Star who was a non-factor post covid, Harrison who is a nice story but a JAG and Vernon Butler who is a "never was". 

     

    I think they should leave Ed on the field more. But the rest of them it doesn't matter how much they rotate. The players themselves are not good enough. They have to hope Groot takes a step and Boogie takes an almighty leap. 

     

    This. 100%.

    Someone once said in regards to QB's and RB's, If you have 2, then you don't have 1. (This applies to us at RB also)

    Well, we have 8 D-Linemen. 

     

    Edmunds played 100% of the snaps for 11 games this year including the playoffs. His least being week 2 @ Miami at 61%

    Rousseau had 11 games this year with less than 50% of the snaps, with his highest being week 2 @ Miami at 66%

    You want him to be a sack machine and learn the game better? well give him 75%+ snaps and stop rotating everyone around 50%.

     

    Rotating the DL keeps them fresh for sure, but it'll also limit there growth.

    The more playing time they give Rousseau, Boogy, Oliver, AJ, and whoever else they decide to draft this year, the better they'll be.

    How stupid. There was no way this attack was going to hurt the United States long term. Sometimes people believe their own propaganda, America is weak because they let women have rights. 

     

    WTF is this?

     

    Sounds like you believe your own propaganda.

    Is there such a thing as responsible betting?

     

    what? Only if you win?

     

    Myself, I'm a responsible smoker....

     

    Dont ask me to splain it....

     

    And I've been known to bet once in a while but I refer to me and brother betting on the Bills as the car of idiots....when we do.... As in.... the car of idiots rides again!

     

    is that responsible betting?

     

    If I had to try to define a responsible gambler, I would say, as long as it's money your ok with losing.

    But personally, I don't gamble. I haven't put money on any sports game in almost 15 years. Even then, it was only like $10 or $20. And I haven't gone to a casino in 12 years.

    Billions of dollars have been bet, illegally, for many years prior. The same temptations to accept a bribe have always been there for players, coaches, refs, etc. 

     

    I get what you're saying but the criminal element that you're worried about has been operating for a very long time.

    Oh I know. A player 'faking' an injury, or a muffed kick is one thing. but a FOX replay camera (or 2) coincidentally not working is a different ball game. It almost seems to take the refs out of the equation....

    There has been gambling on the NFL for decades. What in your mind has changed with this news?

     

    Well, sports gambling like this wasn't even really possible 10-15 years ago. Now it's readily available to just about everyone.

    Gambling on sports using your local bookie, I'm cool with that. Betting on a game on FOX network, using FOX Bet as my 'bookie', no thanks. Seems WAY to easy for FOX to throw a game.

    So here the thing, traditionally your X was considered your #1 WR. Why? Because that’s the player who tended to run your deep routes and was your physical specimen. So he’d get the big yards, big TDS and a high yards per catch, and get the big attention.

     

    Your Z WR worked off the LOS, your best route runner, the dude you goto to pick up a first down, made life a nightmare for backers, free safeties and anyone between perimeter. 

     

    Going into the regular season I believe Davis is firmly established has trending towards very good X, while Diggs has established himself as the best Z in the league.

     

    I wouldn’t call Davis a #1 because I’m not sure it’s a relevant phrase. But you currently have a WR who do everything you want an NFL X to do 

     

    I'm gonna have to agree with this 100%.

     

    These are the terms that teams go by, X, Y, Z, TE. Or is Y the TE? I guess it depends on who's who, the scheme, and who the coach is.

    What about 3 WR or 4 WR sets? Wouldn't Davis be the #4 because he's 4th on the depth chart? But if he's putting up the 2nd/3rd best stats on the team, wouldn't he be #2 or #3 on the depth chart?

    But if Diggs is the best Z and Davis is the best X, why isn't Davis #1 and Diggs #2? But if Diggs is putting up the best numbers he's the clear X receiver right?  lol

     

    If X = #1  then Davis is #1

    If Z = #2 then Diggs is #2

    But Beasley and Sanders fit the Z mild pretty well too, so Beasly and Sanders are #2 also right? So, #1, #2, #2, #2 right?

    So, our depth chart should read #1 Davis, #2 Diggs, #3 Beasley, #4 Sanders. Right?

    Or is it #1, #2, #3, #4, based on stats?

     

    For the love of god.... Please no one answer any of these questions, they're all rhetorical.

     

    It's funny how a #1, 2, 3, 4 can mean something different to different people.

     

    I just think it's funny how Davis seems to fit the X receiver mold *cough* #1 *cough*, but yet some people might call him a #4 because he's 4th on the depth chart. lol

    It's owners wanting to protect their investment considering the amount of money that is paid. 

     

    The owners don't pay the players, the NFL does. Players aren't investments. If the owners and NFL REALLY wanted to protect players, they'd have the players wear actual pads.

  10. Part of being a good GM is spending money wisely. Not throwing money around unnecessarily. I'm sure McBeane, Allen and Diggs knew what the potential was when Diggs signed here. I'm sure McBeane used the 'potential' as a selling point for when Diggs signed. Diggs has the 7th largest salary for a WR in the NFL right now. He has a bigger contract than Julio Jones, Devonte Adams, Tyreek Hill, and Hopkins. He didn't earn his contract based on one year of performance. So he shouldn't expect a raise based on one year with his new team. You guys need to chill with this. The earliest it's gonna happen is a year or so before his contract expires, if ever. Who's to say the Bills don't use him as trade bait one year before his contract expires? Just throwing it out there... you never know.

  11. Every year their seems to be several players who people on this board like to bicker about. The good/bad, the who's better than who, why this player sucks/doesn't suck.  Edmunds, Epenesa, Ford, Addison, Butler, Klein, Knox, Star, Oliver, Phillips... the list goes on. Hell, people even bickered about Allen his first season.

    But I will say, the ONLY player I have yet to see or hear anyone talk crap about is Bass. I don't think one person on this board(or anywhere else) dislikes this kid.

  12. Moss by far.

     

    Moss IS the better pass blocker.

     https://www.pff.com/news/fantasy-football-should-zero-rb-faithful-buy-into-zack-moss

     

    "The pass protection point turned out to be spot on: Moss graded out as PFF’s sixth-highest-graded pass blocker among 47 qualified backs."

    PFF, I know... but go back and watch the games, it's not even close.

     

    Moss is the better pass catcher too. He's more physical and hits harder.
