  1. Defenses know how to deal with the no huddle these days, and players are in much better shape. I think the pats do it the best. There are times you want to go fast and times you want to go slow. Change up the pace as necessary, but no reason to go no huddle the majority of the time.

     

    Also Chris Brown mentioned that Dabol is allowing Josh Allen to sometimes run those 2 minute drills and call plays himself on occasion. That is tremendous. Wonder if he'll let him do that in the regular season this year at all.

    If anyone says Brian Moorman they should be banned.

    Oh, and Brian Moorman too. Absolutely belongs. All pro, plus a pro bowler. He was truly elite at his position. Not sure why anyone trashes him just for being a punter. He was also a team leader and an excellent teammate. Plus he played in Buffalo for so many years. I'd put other guys in ahead of him, but I'd like to see him in eventually.

     

    2× Pro Bowl (2005, 2006)

    2× First-team All-Pro (2005, 2006)

    2× Longest Punt in NFL (2002, 2009)

    1× NFL Yards per Punt Leader (2005)

    Bills record for longest punt (84 yards, 2002)

    NFL 2000s All-Decade Team

    Buffalo Bills 50th Anniversary Team

  3. Eric Moulds would be sweet. In my opinion, he's the most talented receiver to ever play for the Bills.

     

    Kyle Williams will obviously get in. Reuben Brown should have awhile ago.

     

    I'm on the fence with Fred Jackson. Heart and soul of the team. Great leader. Best player on a bunch of crappy teams. Great story. But overall as a running back, he was just a little above average. Didn't have great production. Was never considered elite. Not sure he is deserving strictly from his play. Question is, do the intangibles, leadership, etc. bridge that gap?

    Terrence McGhee should be given consideration.  Was the best kick returner in team history.  And one of the best all time in the NFL.  Was also a very good CB.  And played and acted like a leader and a champion.

    Yes. Forgot about him. He's an excellent choice. 2x time all pro.

    I don't think it's wrong to be skeptical here.  I like that he's constantly pushing himself and the team to learn and grow (unlike most previous head coaches).  But until it really translates to game day aggressiveness and adjustments, I'm not overly excited. 

     

    Personally, I'll judge him this year by our results against the Patriots.  Win one of those games, and I'll say that McDermott might be getting there.  But if it's SSDD, he's just Jauron 2.0 to me

    So if they win 10 games and get into the playoffs, but lose to the Pats twice, you'll be disappointed?

     

    The Patriots are the Patriots. They've been dominating the entire league for years and years. They are not an accurate measuring stick to compare any team to, including the Bills.

     

    Now maybe their days of dominating are behind them. Who knows?

    i do not think that most of the players fight to hard on the rookie salary slots- the slots only hurt a handful of players each year and most guys probably resent a rookie who would be guaranteed 80 million without any production especially in a salary cap league. i would think they would fight hard for a bigger piece of pie overall and to limit Goddells power. 

    It's not the players. It's the NFLPA. Big difference. And the elite few dominate every aspect of life, not the majority. Sports is no different.

    I mean - what are the things they would want?  It feels like they barely practice as it is currently, so i'm not sure how much they can scale that back.

     

    More retirement benefits?

    Better insurance for life after football? 

    Better salary minimums?

     

    The cap is structured around the revenue splits - they have a salary floor (barely) so teams can't tank salaries for a year.  

     

    The only thing i can think is the franchise tag - but the owners like the tag.  Getting rid of that you have to give something back like UFA status after 4 years for example.  2nd/3rd rounders would then be RFAs for a year or something, or you would expand 5th year options to those players as well.  

    Umm... they want a bigger piece of the pie. It's all about money. Obviously. I'm assuming they also want to do away with the rookie wage scale, franchise tag, fifth year option on rookie deals, and anything else that limits a player's potential earnings. They probably also want to take away the commissioner's monopoly on player discipline.

     

    NFL players actually get a smaller percentage of revenue than players in many pro sports leagues.

     

    I personally don't care one bit about all that stuff, as long as they line up and play on Sundays. I have no dog in the fight.

    The inference here is that Lamar Jackson is stupid and or lazy. It has been pointed out that he scored 13 on the Wonderlic, by the way Jim Kelly scored 15. He must be dumb because his mother is his agent, I’m guessing his mother truly has his best interest at heart, agents at best are duplicitous. Furthermore his representation won’t become important for a few years. He is such a bad QB that a Super Bowl winning coach traded a Super Bowl winning QB.

    Because Flacco sucks. He's never been an elite QB. He's never been that good at all. He just comes on in the playoffs occasionally.
