    Ya I'm worried because I don't recall any top tier receivers in the games since white got injured.

     

    The next openents may really show what our secondary is made of.

    Tom Brady and company was the one instance and that became a struggle (although we adjusted well in the 2nd half).

     

    The Bills will need to be prepared to score 30 at minimum, but I think we have the horses to do it.

    I wouldn't put Lamar or Mayfield anywhere near the likes of Tua or Hurts.

     

    Totally different classes of QB, with Lamar the best of them all.  

     

    All have flaws though.

     

     

     

     

    I would include Mayfield in the Tua and Hurts group but not Jackson.

     

    Lamar, while having limitations of his own, is the only difference maker of the bunch

    KC win puts Bills in better spot

    Looking at the playoff scenarios I feel like a KC win tonight puts us in a better spot moving forward. If the Chiefs lose we host Cincy next weekend, and they lok like the better team at this point. Not to mention they just beat the Chiefs. If we can go to KC and win next weekend, I think we have a very real shot of hosting the championship game in Orchard Park, because the Bengals could knock off Tennessee. I don't see any way the Steelers go into Tennessee and win next weekend. 

    So let me get this straight...

     

    You would rather avoid the Bengals at home in the next round because they are somehow superior to the Chiefs, but are enthused about the possibility of hosting them in the AFC championship game? How is that better?

    Lol that was good! Nah I’m good I went into the game knowing a win was a long shot at best.. now that I am passed the Vance McMahon “Fire them all” on D anger phase.. I’ll just watch the rest of the playoffs relaxed….  Good luck next week Bills!

    I don't think you really believe what you're saying but I give you credit for facing the music. Sports championships and high level success are supposed to be a given for a New Englander

    most underrated move by Beane during his time here

    I’ll go with a topical one.

     

    How about NOT giving Shaq Lawson or Jordan Phillips huge deals after they had good seasons for the Bills?

     

    Shaq got a huge contract, then did nothing. Same with Phillips. Beane saw that coming when a lot of posters on this site were calling for his head for not re-signing those two.

    Very good points, but the disappointing flip side was replacing them with guys like Quinton Jefferson and Vernon Butler.

     

    Let's hope with the emergence of Oliver and Phillips plus our young edge rushers that the Dline is solidified.

    ...even though it is hard....

    Amazingly you can still access press conferences from Jauron on buffalobills.com (don't ask me why I know this lol).

     

    After we lost to the Saints in 09, a reporter asked Jauron why he punted on 4th and short from midfield when already down 2 scores with 10 minutes remaining. His response was that he didn't want to get down 3 scores quickly.

     

    Good guy, but man Jauron was such a loser

    I mean, he wasnt a terrible HC. Terrible GM and kind of an #######. 

     

    He also developed Watson and they have a young QB who needs some development 

    I really wouldn't give him too much credit for developing Watson. He was a pro ready qb from the moment he left Clemson. The only reason O'Brien won multiple division titles is the AFC South was straight trash during his tenure.

     

    He was never impressive at all, even as a HC. Game management, play calling, leadership...all mediocre

    2000 Bills Team Question

    My memory without fact checking anything:

    - The defense was insane. They had not just lost Cowart, but I believe it was four significant season ending injuries during the TB game.

    - I have a feeling I'm mixing this up with a different year, but Wade converted from 3-4 to 4-3 midweek and kept it completely under wraps until the start of the next game against the Colts. The defense still was dominant.

    - Special teams was, as others stated, an all time worst. 

    - Never heard that Ralph meddled to force DeHaven to be fired after the Music City Forward Lateral, Wade insisted that it was his plan all along to replace him with "his guy", incompetent coach / part time sex offender Ronnie Jones.

    - Ralph did insist Jones to be fired after the season. Wade wanted to switch him to a defensive coach and stated that Ralph was looking for an excuse to fire him, if he had complied he would have come up with new demands. We'll never know about this but personally, if Jones stayed anywhere near that team I think there would have been a total fan revolt. I remember seeing an interview with Christie sometime after that saying that Jones had no idea of setting up ST plays, what types of drills to run during practices, etc.

    Cowart was an absolute beast. When he went down it was a gut punch.

     

    I remember that TB game clearly and how it sent the Bills into a tailspin. Turning point of the season no doubt

    Rule #1 of being a GM in a salary cap league is don't spend capital on productivity that you already have in reserve.  Beane is a smart guy and knows that Gabe Davis on his rookie deal will be a 1,000 yard receiver next year.

    Right. WR is one of the least needy areas on this team and we have an up and coming guy already in place.

     

    Given Allen's contract, the presence of Diggs, the relative lack of cap space, and Ridley's uncertain situation, this has exactly 0% chance of occurring. We're not paying two #1's

    Yup I totally understand but McKenzie was a concern at the start of the season and has had trouble. I’m at the point I just want Hyde back there to fair catch them all. 

    This is where I'm at. Both McKenzie and Stevenson scare the living daylights out of me. 

     

    I believe we're a good enough team that having an explosive but gaffe prone returner is a gamble we don't need to take.
