    The Patriots or the Bills?

     

    Bc I think he's done in this town. It would look *pretty* dumb to have a "mutual parting of the ways", after he approached the team looking for more snaps - only to come back on the Practice Squad.

    Could simply be a case of him not finding somewhere else and coming back.

    Exactly. People get mad at players picked high and end up underwhelming or an outright bust. Not Aaron Maybin’s or Whitner’s or Elam’s or Keon Coleman’s or Mike Williams or JP Lossman’s or EJ Manuel’s or CJ Spiller’s or Sammy Watkin’s or Greg Rousseau’s or Shaq Lawson’s or John McCargo’s or Erik Flower’s fault that the Bill’s GMs don’t know how to evaluate first round talent. Those players were smart enough to secure life changing contracts without ever playing a down of professional football. 

    I largely agree with you. My only beef with the ones you listed is Keon. And that's because he chooses not to put in the effort. Now, I don't think if he did he would turn into Drake London 2.0. 

     

    And to a point I still can pin a lot of blame for the pick on Beane. Coleman just isn't a guy that loves football. I think he just loves what football can provide. That should have been something they noticed in the pre draft process.

    This is exactly why Moore must be "neutralized" before he goes to the Pats and reveals all the secrets of Brady's juggernaut offense!!

    All jokes aside, wouldn't shock me to see him on the practice squad next week

    Green Bay vs Detroit 

     

    KC vs Dallas


    Cincy vs Baltimore 

     

    great day of games. 

    I'm taking Green Bay, Dallas and Cincinnati today.

     

    Detroit has looked off this year to me. Maybe the new OC and DC are still learning. 

     

    Baltimore has been on a win streak but Lamar has been flat out bad since he can back from injury. I think Cincinnati gets a small Burrow Bump that carries them to a win.

     

    And Dallas's offense has been pretty good lately. Pickens and Lamb are a deadly duo. Today they feast.

     

     

    I'm actually looking forward to tomorrow's Bears-Eagles Black Friday game. Chicago has def been a surprise to me this year.

    The new giants head coach is gonna make Daboll look like an absolute clown I think haha I honestly think that roster is pretty good and he was absolutely dragging them down a ton..  it’s so interesting hearing how he’s talked about now on here I think he’s an absolutely godawful coach as someone watching a criminal amount of giants games 😂. Don’t think Brady is any good either but swapping Brady for Daboll is like going from sh*t to sh*t lol 

     

     

    Yea, I too watched way too many Giants games over the last few years. With former Bills employees running the show and the many ex Bills they brought in it was a natural watch for me. 

     

    It's amazing how poorly he did with Daniel Jones's "development". Even their playoff year he had something like 14 TD passes. 

     

    It's even more amazing that people forget just how frustrating he was as an OC while he was here. I'm far from a Brady fan, but going back to Daboll would be a horrible move.

    Spread moving bc we likely will be without both tackles...against a very good pass rush and still elite game wrecker in Watt.

     

    I personally dont see how we win this one with Vandemark and Lundt starting.  Gonna be alot of run, run, pass.

    Well, if we are missing both OTs perhaps our genius OC will be forced to play 6 OL more than 1 snap this game unlike against Houston. 

     

    TE will be staying in to help for sure.

    I like the idea of targeting the Rams organization.

    As for Slowik, he's at the very bottom of the list for me. 

    It turns out that he's a fraud, or at least he was, aa the Texans OC.

     

    Going into year 2, Chris Simms on his unbuttoned podcast, basically said that this guy's knowledge consisted of knowing a playbook, but not an actual offense. He further said, now that teams have a year of film, he was curious how he would do year 2. If you don't know the actual rules of an offense, how are you going to get answers. As we all know, he got fired about 1/2 way through year 2.

    Slowik was under Shanahan in SF, who is close friends with Simms. This to me says a lot, about how they feel about him as a coach. 

     

    Ironically enough, I'm starting to feel that way about Brady, running almost the same plays as last year's, and not having in game answers or counters for things.

    Fair point on Slowik. And possibly telling no one else picked him as an OC.

     

    It does seem that this year CJ Stroud regressed even more as did their offense. My biggest hope is that in the event Joe Brady isn't here next year is that the Bills look outside and not promote from within. Ronald Curry doesn't really spark hope.

    this years crop seems to be kingsbury or klint kubiak for the mainstream offensive names. 
     

    this articles a pretty good primer on a bunch of young candidates that’ll be in the cycle this and the next couple years -

     

    https://www.nfl.com/news/2026-nfl-head-coach-hiring-cycle-24-young-candidates-to-know

    That list starts with Joe Brady, so not sure how much I trust it lol

    It surprises me to see McDermott this high, given his resume. I was never part of the fire McDermott crowd and have been more critical of Beane's drafts picks.

     

    However, McDermott seems to get the most out of secondary talent, but the opposite might be true for the dline.  Looking at both Poona, and Settle performing at a high level elsehwere, makes me think there's a big problem with his scheme. 

     

    However, there's no Ben Johnson this year, or Sean Payton.  

     

    For anyone wanting him fired, who do we replace him with, and is it a HC/GM package deal?

     

    I believe they are a package deal. If you get rid of one, may as well start fresh.

     

    As far as GMs go, I would do a deep dive of the Rams FO staff. They seem to have the drafting thing down and do well with bringing on impactful FAs. They also find decent UDFAs and know when to let a vet walk (like Rapp).

     

    Head Coaches, I know this will be unpopular, but I still like Bobby Slowik. And I know this is going to be super unpopular...but I give Matt Nagy a look. The guy made the playoffs TWICE with Trubisky as his starting QB. He's went back under Reid. I think he's a guy that could do well in a second try.

    I mean at some point, you have to think that he finally has to answer for the mess this team is. How he keeps getting let off the hook is beyond me, especially when it was his defense that was costing us games in the playoffs, not the offense. 

    It all comes down to Pegula. There are actually 2 areas he's gotten off easy on. Sure, his defense letting us down is more of an annual tradition than the Macy's Parade.

     

    But his first year here if reports are correct, and I believe they are, that Pegula wanted Mahomes and placed his trust in McDermott to make the choice. Now, win some lose some, sure, and we did end up with Josh Allen. But if I'm the owner and I keep watching the guy I wanted piledrive us out of the playoffs year after year...at some point I may question if the guy that didn't wanna take that QB actually knows what he's talking about

    Considering the Tackle situation Brady darn well better make this a game where Josh gets the ball out of his hands quickly.

    He's got to do something different. Be it a moving pocket and getting Josh rolling out, going more up tempo, something.

     

    Which means he will overdose on mesh concepts that take longer to pop open.

    Did anyone watch Josh's PC from today?

     

    Cooks is playing and I think he's going to be a decent part of our game plan.  Josh complemented him on his high football IQ and kinda smirked when he said he's already learned most of the playbook.  The playbook comment caught my attention because the way he said it he seemed pretty genuinely pleased by how much he knows already.  Others can comment on it, but it didn't seem like the standard throwaway comment he might make in a PC.

    I'm sure Cooks knows how to run Mesh/WR screens. He's a vet. That's all her really needs to know in this offense.

    600 bucks for two bleacher seats is shameless.  I get it that it is a business, but this level of greed is getting obnoxious.  

    I think a cool thing would be to gift them to long time season ticket holders. Let them keep their seats so to speak.

     

    Just wait til they rip it down and sell off golf ball size pieces of rubble for $350 each

    So apparently Diggs started sucking precisely when Brady took over even tho he tore up the NFL the 11 weeks prior?  The preponderance of the evidence has shown Brady has ZERO idea how to properly utilize WR's effectively.

    Exactly. Because it's kind of weird that Diggs bounced back to being a good WR again in his short time with the Texans and has been back to his normal self, even at his age and coming off the big injury, in New England.

    Not surprised based on his social media yesterday.  Feel for him.  I think he works hard and was poorly used by the staff

    Agree.

     

    After the 2nd round of the draft he is who I called for the Bills to bring in. I figured he could get a nice "Josh Allen Bump" and be productive. I didn't take into account the "Joe Brady drop" that would come from his usage in this offense.

    It's going to be Amari Cooper 2.0. Let's be realistic. 

    I don't thinks so.

     

    When Cooper came here there were way more expectations. He was brought in and everyone thought he would be the WR1 we needed 

     

    No sane person is laying those expectations on Cooks. Honestly if he gives us a few timely plays, maybe a dozen catches, around 200 yards and a TD or two, I think that's meeting what realistic expectations should be.

     

    Also Cooper cost us a day 2 pick, Cooks costs us nothing but a small portion of salary.

    I don’t believe we see Coleman again this year.

    Until this, I was figuring he would see the field again, be it due to injury or them giving him "one last chance". While Cooks is hardly a world beater at this stage of his career I think to me it's a loud and clear message that they are done with the Coleman experience.

  17. We now have a logjam of mediocre WRs. Between this signing, Gabe lurking on the PS, and the potential of Hardman returning at some point...it's making me think that either Hardman was hurt way more than we thought and won't be back OR they are doing whatever they can to make sure Coleman doesn't have to see the field again this year.
