Yobogoya!

I’d be leaning towards yes. He’ll have extra motivation 2x games a year, and if nothing else we might finally have someone in the building who will insist on getting speed at the offensive skill positions.

Playoff calculators are just like Christmas- the season is getting earlier and earlier every year. Pretty soon we'll be getting playoff predictors in Week 2.

Liberal media had to dig pretty deep to try and deflect from that hate-filled AG candidate, huh?

Is anyone tracking Pegula's jet..??

We should just start trading our day 1-2 draft picks for proven talent and let Beane draft solely on day 3 at this point.

Yeah you got to be process first and foremost to get a crack at this roster. Belichick commanded team-first obedience from the Patriots as well, but he was willing to give ANY player a chance on the roster regardless of why they were being cut, traded, etc. Chiefs have had that same mentality as well. Makes it a lot easier to stockpile talent.

If it ever comes to that I’d rather he go to the Rams. He would thrive under McVay, but Shanahan runs all of his QB’s into the dirt and much like the Bills- can’t beat KC in the postseason when it counts.

A lot of us have been saying that for years- we have no top shelf monsters that will scare and disrupt the opponent (on offense or defense, really). McBeane believes in a team being more than the sum of its parts, and I respect that philosophy but we’ve taken it to the extreme. SOME of those parts need to be high quality parts, or the team isn’t going to be a high quality team.

I’m not convinced we aren’t fielding 10 men on a lot of these downs.

Both sides of the ball have been figured out, the coaches have no schematic strengths and Josh has reverted to his old attempts to compensate — only he can’t even take matters into his own hands and play Superman with this supporting cast of “weapons”

Does this team even practice?? Between the end arounds, runnings into own blockers, receivers not on the same page with Allen… I mean what the hell. They look more like a comedy troupe than a football team.

Shame we can’t drum up pressure on third and long

That was really a great dive for the touchdown by Davis.

We’ve given a lot of money to “home grown” talent that isn’t very good, sadly..

We were a bad defense out the gate this year. Now we’re a bad defense with five weeks worth of tape 😣

McDermott has spent years convincing him he needs to pass and not run.

I wonder if he has help anywhere in this organization, honestly.

It’s an NFL defense- just not a championship one.

Lol discuss a non reviewable pre snap penalty?? Gimme a break.

I work in sales and this is literally me any time a customer comes in and tells me exactly what they're going to buy and immediately pays full retail sticker price without any haggling whatsoever. 😎

Yeah Allen can make magic happen when he goes off script, but he can't do it alone. If we could rely on Keon to be the player he was in the 4th quarter of the Ravens game - but all the time - then that would be a big help. As it stands we just can't punish defenses on command for manning up and daring us to beat them.

Yeah I think it's possible to win with this offensive group for sure. With Allen you get a lot of leeway, although obviously we would all love a more clear WR1 who can separate. But on defense there's no comparison. Belichick hasn't done his legacy any favors in recent years, but some of his championship defenses were truly special. I mean he held that Rams offense that was no.2 in yards and points to just 3 points in that super bowl. Three points. I don't think even McD's most ardent supporters think we've ever fielded a defense that could win us a championship in that fashion- not in any year he's been here.

I think it's an OK philosophy in the sense that the offense isn't being hamstrung by any one particular star player- the Patriots operated like that for most of their dynasty sans the Randy Moss years. Sure they had certain mainstays, like Gronk, Welker, Edelman, etc. But for the most part they rode whoever the "hot hand" was in a certain game. I think that's what the Bills are missing- Kincaid was carving the Pats up, so why not keep feeding him? If the guy whose finding the sweet spot is Shakir, then feed Shakir. If it's Cook, then feed Cook. Once you've unlocked the guy who's having success, you can stop trying to spread the ball around until they stop it. If their defense adjusts, THEN you spread the ball around again. Once McDaniels and Maye figured out that Diggs wasn't going to be stopped all game, they fed him to the tune of his biggest game in over two years. It's really that simple.

To be fair, it's worth observing that our o-line only started getting really good in 2022 when we brought Kromer back (and his previous stint also coincided with the last time we had strong o-line play before that). Plus our best lineman, Dawkins, was a Whaley pick. Don't get me wrong, it's nice that 8 years into the McBeane regime we have at least ONE position group of strength (could probably say two with the TE group this year). But when you say "he sucks at finding defensive talent and WR's", you do realize that's like... 60% of the 53 man roster, right? That's an awful lot of suckitude 😅

Chris Collinsworth was calling our plays before they happened. Chris. Collinsworth. If you can't disguise your intentions from that nose picker then I don't know who you're going to fool in this league.
