According to Cover 1, Coleman will be a healthy scratch
BuffaloBillyG replied to BillsFan619's topic in The Stadium Wall
Contrary to what we read here, the kid has some talent. He's capable of doing a passable job. That's what frustrates me. He just seems immature and lazy. He doesn't strike me as someone with a good work ethic and a drive to be the best player he can be. I really think that if he put the work in to be excellent at his craft he could be a poor man's Drake London. Instead, he's a rich man's Kelvin Benjamin. -
Who do we want, who do we need as our next OC/DC?
BuffaloBillyG replied to Sierra Foothills's topic in The Stadium Wall
Most likely anyone hired for the position is already on staff. That's just how they do it here. If McDermott looked outside the organization I still like Bobby Slowik. I think he kind of got scapegoated by Houston. But most likely I think we would be looking at either Aaron Kromer or Ronald Curry. Defense is the conundrum. I don't see anyone on staff qualified. I think the most likely outcome there is McDermott calls the def next year and Babich is DC in name only. I could also see McDermott bringing in a guy like Steve Wilks if he's available as Wilks has experience with this type defense. -
I agree with this. Palmer will likely stay. I have a hunch Coleman is traded. I don't think Gabe will be back. That leaves Shavers as I don't consider Moore or Samuel outside WRs. Shavers is the Mendoza Line. He's been in the system for a while and is well liked. He's the one that if he makes the team next year, Beane didn't do enough to improve the boundary. Hopefully, he does and Shavers is back to the PS The issue for next year is that the FA WR class is SLIM. There's George Pickens. And that's really it. Yeah, Mike Evans is expected to be a FA, but he will be 33, and guys always seem to re-sign with the Buccaneers for team friendly deals. Other than that....a bunch of JAGS. That's gonna mean if Beane wants to reset the room, he's gonna be forced to look to the draft or swing a big boy trade

For reference, McDermott spent weeks saying the exact same things about Dorsey for a month before he finally canned him. The wording was almost verbatim. Don't take it at face value. You can like it or not like it, but one thing McDermott will always do is give his coordinator a chance to figure things out. As fans, no we won't like it. But as a potential next coordinator will see, they will be given the chance to correct things and not be fired on a whim. That makes for attracting better coaches possible. They are bringing in new WRs tomorrow and shaking it up to see if that helps. This is just as much an evaluation of what Dorsey does with different players as it is on the players themselves. If the Bills lay an egg on offense tomorrow and Thursday, I would lay good money down Brady is gone by Friday morning.

Game week thread - Buccaneers at Bills
BuffaloBillyG replied to BillsFan619's topic in The Stadium Wall
Agree, which is really odd to me as that seemed to be something Coleman did very well last year. Doesn't seem like a skill someone would just forget, but what do I know -
You really didn't pay attention to his time with the Giants, did you?
-
Exactly this. It's also easy to talk without knowing of how things played out. Let's say for the sake of argument, Beane DID win a bidding war. He would have likely had to vastly overpay. Now he sunk all that money into Hollins and Hollins gets injured here. Now he's overpaid and sitting on IR. Pitchforks would still be out in full force that we overpaid a JAG that's sitting on IR.

Question About the Border on Game Days
BuffaloBillyG replied to CA OC Bills Fan's topic in The Stadium Wall
Pro tip: If you adamantly tell them they do not have your consent to look in your trunk or glove box they will know you are an experienced traveler who knows what's up and they will fast track you through. -
Of all the bad decisions and missed picks Beane has had, not re-signing Mack Hollins isn't going to be what costs him his job. From the sounds of it, they made Hollins an offer and it was Hollins's choice to head to New England. Maybe Hollins and his representative told the Bills the offer the Patriots made and Beane passed. Maybe Hollins got the offer and jumped on it. But no one can force a guy to stay if he wants to go.
