Bills forever spinning their wheels. Create holes just to have to fill the created holes.
There is never any progress
Now need another DT in offseason so instead on one you now need two.
Need a plethora of WRs
Still need OG likely two
A QB
RB is also a big need
DBs still a need
Toss some LBers in there.
Sounds like MOST NFL teams in the modern era.

Are we targeting a big free agent next year or something? Possibly Kirk Cousins?
This is exactly what I have been thinking they may be up to and then using the draft to build up around him (or Jimmy Garrapolo). With this strategy they have draft options. just odd....
-
Except thats how they've been for the last yeae and a half and have the 3rd best record in the NFL over that time span...quite a long mirage dont you think?
Wait... what does the previous season have to do with ANYTHING with the start of this season? I was comparing very bad 4 and 2 teams that the record is misleading based on "quality" and their manner of winning.

I can't help but picture Gugny smirking over this thread like a little child who farted in a crowded elevator. He truly must enjoy the life this thread took. He must have known what he did. The only baffling thing is how has this thread not been closed due to having enough of the Bolden threads already as well as the racial underpinnings.

I'm usually right with the Bills and other NFL matters.
Not just because I used to work in the scouting world either
I used to (and still do) work in the scouting world (Boy Scouts)... and I think you are misunderstanding stats or at least not taking them into consideration on the grand scheme of things! The Dolphins stink and have looked horrendous all year.
-
If Boldin is grass-fed, do you think we can get a 3rd round pick for him?
Well... Josh Gordon is a receiver who is "grass fed" and he can't find a job!
-
The Fins 4-2 felt like last year's Bills 4-2. It was nothing but a mirage.
-
Pats defense may be bad but they're still 5-2. If recall correctly, the Pats defense wasnt all that great the year [they beat] the Seahawks BEAT THEMSELVES in the superbowl
Fixed it for ya!
-
3 blown plays in the TB game. That also took the defense to 4th in points allowed.
Point is I hope it is not the beginning of a trend.
I gotcha... sorry I thought meant as of late in totality. I am still curious how we stack up on big plays. I still relish in the fact we are 4th best in scoring against in the league.

40s for everyone.
I was on a softball team named "schlitz and giggles".... we lost often but had a blast afterwards!

I think he got a small signing bonus and gave it back.
I thought so as well... but I could not find it.
-
I agree with most of that. But contracts are not guaranteed. The Bills could cut him at any hour, without notice, or reason for that matter, and he doesn't get that contract. And he can walk away, too, at any time and he doesn't get that contract. Which he did. I think he let the Bills down. But I'm trying to look at it from his perspective.
I agree. However, once again, he could have negotiated a signing bonus that buffers against what you said. I think the Bills are meeting him halfway - the are allowing him to look around and find his worth. Worst case scenario for Bolden is that no one wants anything to do with him IF it includes a commitment on their part (an asset to be sent to Buffalo). He is a 15 year veteran with TONS of accolades.... I can not sell him short with Anquan not understanding the business side of football. Also, what is Sammy Broke his leg 2nd preseason game and THEN he retired with the same sense that he thinks the Bills are hot garbage now. Does that change things for him or others? Still wasn't (speculatively) what he signed up for. It is just too much of a slippery slope- thus a contract that both parties sign free from coercion.
-
And he thought I no longer have two of the three or four things I signed up for.
I understand the greater point you are trying to make... the work conditions changed, perhaps, to his dissatisfaction. However, outside of that just being speculative, it was never something he demanded nor "signed up for" aka put i his contract which he indeed signed up for. IF he wanted those conditions that badly he could have had a funky "no trade clause" (concerning those two) in his contract. As far as we know he didnt. Therefore, he broke a valid contract. Most of us have signed up for something then perhaps have had buyer's remorse and had to stick it out - just is life.

Where did you see that word before you just typed it? It certainly was not in the original post. Stop making this into something it isn't.
Actually your original words of your opening post lead to it - "unchained" "oppressed" "unjust" and "property." Those words are what lead many to show you were referring (slavery) to the situation. You DO NOT have to use a word to describe it. It is akin to me saying "furry" "pet" "bark" and "man's best friend" and getting appalled someone THOUGHT I was referring to a dog.

My guess is he'd run the team like George Steinbrenner ran the Yankees.
Although I would HATE having either arsehat own the team... IF you told me Trump would run the Bills like Steinbrenner ran the Yankees - SIGN ME UP!! George Steinbrenner has won 7 World Series championships with the Yankees. I will take 7 Super Bowl wins!
-
Does Gugny = Al Sharpton? I mean really. I am not all PC and all but truly words like "oppressed" "property" and "unchain" sounds like you are looking for Civil War reparations at the worst or trolling at best.I feel that the Bills are treating Boldin as "their property," and it's unjust.
They should just unchain him and let him go to whichever team he chooses.
BTW... it is a contract signed by a "free man" so, in turn, he needs to honor it.
-
The only place he would play if I was GM would be Buffalo
I would consider Cleveland.
-
LOL so much for altruistic endeavors!

You realize that Buffalo's defensive snap count is at 410. If we use your number of 3 "big blown plays" it is less than 1% (.73%) of the time. IF you are using the NFL's manner of categorizing "big plays" (gains of 20-plus yards) as a percentage.... I couldn't tell you where we stand on that atm. I am at work. I am sure someone can chime in on that stat relative to the rest of the league. I personally don't recall "many".Upset? Naw, more like a bit disappointing.
3 big blown plays. I'm hoping it was an oddity and not the beginning of a trend.
-
Pro Bowl means nothing . The best players sit out every year......and obviously anyone playing in the Superbowl
This... since rooting for a small market team - even more of this.
-
Thinking Duff's and specifically the wings with death sauce... they smell good, the look good. Then you dive in (against your BETTER judgement) and they burn the crap out of your mouth and the NEXT day you were subtly reminded (when your arse is flaming sitting on the porcelain throne) that this ALWAYS happens - buyer's remorse.
-
What's your question to Kaepernick?
Cake or Pie?
-
If we see this defense let up 300+ yards passing and 20+ points for the 3rd straight game it's time to be very concerned.
Okay.... I see where you are coming from. However, you DO realize that 24 out of 32 teams so far this year give up 20 pts per game? Which is 75% of the league? The Bills are averaging 16.8 which is 4th in the league (Seattle and Jacksonville (15.7) and Pittsburgh (16.6)). I just don't want to sensationalize nor do I want to follow the group think of hyperbole that we are doomed. However, I do realize it is a football forum and would be boring without such claims.
-
I fully expect Oakland to come in OP and just beat this over rated defense down.
I disagree. I do not think this defense is over rated.... I think it is manned with a lack of solid depth. There is just too much of a drop off between most of the starters and the back ups.
Dareus traded to Jacksonville!

Hey JerseyBills... first off the context of my comment was perhaps that is what they are thinking. I was not supporting this. IMO, draft and mold a QB into the system. It was just a thought what they MAY be doing.
Secondly, I don't know if you realize this but your point being supported by 4 random fans of 4 teams with their very own crappy QBs does not make them experts on the position. IF anything, it weakens whatever argument your trying to make and it makes it look juvenile. Moreover, IF one compares it to various front offices that have devalued Taylor via contracts etc. you would see they have a drastically different opinion then 4 dudes on a barstool. I would hope to think front offices (GMs et al.) have a slightly higher "football IQ" than your random chosen fans.
