I already said Lamar shouldn't get it. I gave my reasons for why Stroud should. My question why do so many dismiss INTs so much? While TDs and Yards matter, so should turnovers. If anything an argument can be made for Love for MVP. He was 2nd in passing TDs with 32 and only had 11 INTs.

Allen has way too many INTs to be in the conversation. While Dak had good games, he still struggled against winning teams. The reasons I pick Stroud he carried a team to a division win that many thought would be a bottom 5 team. Add in him leading in TD to INT ratio, only throwing an INT on 1% of his passes.

I will give them a pass for the KC loss this season due to the injuries. I will add to my earlier post is that one thing McDermott has been terrible at and hasn't gotten better is half time adjustments.

I never said he should win. My point was a playoff game has no bearing on the MVP vote. IMO the only 2 that should be up for it are McCaffrey and Stroud.

Playoffs don't matter when it comes to MVP voting. It's for the regular season.

Seeing those stats proves McDermott is a great regular season coach when you play more average teams than good. When the playoffs hit he struggles against the top tier teams.

Maybe. Next year is most likely going to be vastly different team. A lot of free agents and not a lot of cap space for major upgrades.

MVP is for regular season only. Nothing to do with playoffs. IMO Stroud should be the MVP

They are trying to market to the younger generation now. That's where the future is. It's all about the 20-40 year olds now. They are the future fans.

That's what the best teams do. They have a another level

Those are great additions. They have never addressed the biggest need and that is a WR that can get seperation. That comes down to coaching and those teams offenses. Those teams find ways to get guys open constantly and are able to make explosive plays more often.

I posted in another thread but it fits this one.

You're flat out wrong. In 8 of 17 regular season games Buffalo scored more than 24 points. Det did it 13 times Bal did it 11 times SF did it 12 times Dal did it 10 times Miami did it 8 times too but that game they beat Denver inflates their offensive stats. Besides points, you watch other offenses and see how wide open WRs get and the YAC they make.

I agree with the bad coaching part. IMO watching other teams, especially those with top offenses is how easy they move the ball. They also have a lot more explosive plays more often. All through that winning streak and the game against KC the offense struggled to score most games.

Some coach once said "It's hard to win in this league". IMO many here are so afraid the Bills go back to irrelevant again that they are afraid to change the coach. McDermott has taken this team as far as he can. His philosophy is too old school for what wins in this league now.

Yep. It's going to happen. Depending on what happens with the lawsuit between the NFL and DirectTV. From the what's being said if the NFL wins they could move local broadcasts to streaming only.

I agree with a lot of that. IMO the biggest issue the Sabres have and will always have is guys don't want to play here. Its why they end up with guys like Johnson and Clifton. They have to stick to the development process by default. It just going to take longer for this team to get better. As bad as they have been this season, I will take their situation over whats going on on Ottawa. Both teams were supposed to take the next step this season. At least with the Sabres they have shown glimpses of it, where as it's been a tire fire in Ottawa

A litt off topic. I have been fascinated with older fans like @Shaw66 and @oldmanfan in their love for the Bills but no love for the other team in town thats been around since the 70s. I know the Sabres haven't been good the last decade but from the 70s til early 2000s they had many good runs in the playoffs. I would have thought they would have had the same level of fandom. As far as the team goes, I think they have regressed since that 13 second game. The offense isn't as dynamic and explosive.

I think Fields would be a good fit. More mobile than Tua and has a better arm.

https://www.si.com/nfl/broncos/news/tua-tagovailoa-broncos-dolphins-trade-proposal-mock Broncos get: Tua Tagovailoa, No. 137 pick • Dolphins get: Justin Fields, No. 81 pick, Broncos 2025 second-round pick • Bears get: No. 182 pick, Dolphins 2025 third-round pick, Broncos 2025 sixth-round pick If that trade happens it's a good deal for all teams.

Disagree. He's done a good job getting them to be competitive and out of the drought years. IMO this is a far as he takes them. Complimentary football is an old school way of thinking. They need to get a coach that will focus on the offense.

If you read the article the streaming would be for in-market only. Locals would have to switch to streaming and out of market would only get the team local to them.

I know that post is a year old but it still applies today. IMO he's taken them as far as he can take them. I don't see them getting over the hump with him. Time to get an offensive minded coach.

With what money?

He's going to need a different coach first. Only 5 coaches in the Superbowl era have won after being with a team for more than 5 seasons.
