Excellent signing. Its the ability to see things like this - an under the radar player who has played with substandard qb play - and bring him in here with an opportunity for josh to elevate his game and become a household name. Well done, and lots to love on that tape. Hopefully it translates on the field here

If it's a Herschel Walker kind of deal, where we get 11 picks or something like that, and they throw in Parsons - you'd have to consider it.
It wldnt be lol

I dont really care abt OBJ one way or another. That said, judging him simply by YPT seems a little too simple

McD's seat is ice cold. He is going NOWHERE unless he has more than 1 losing season in a row.
These ludicrous takes as if McD is in danger of losing his job are some of the dumbest I have ever seen on this board and that says a lot.
You are in fantasy land if you think he is going anywhere.
1000% Correct
However, of all the fantasy land takes on here from the 'arm chair experts' who seem to think they know their way around the team better than the actual coach and actual GM - this is a take I don't mind.
The reasoning? its a great litmus test to assess if you are dealing with someone who can have an intelligent and coherent conversation about the state of affairs and this upcoming season.
If you cant see the forest through the trees in regard to one of the most common sense, easiest conclusions that's almost written in stone..... well then I just cant take a conversation about something not so cut and dry seriously.
Football has a large share of fans who turn on the TV every Sunday and yell at the TV to fire everyone, while not understanding the intricacies of what they are watching and thats totally fine. It sure does make having legitimate conversations difficult though. Especially when the last few years things have morphed into such a 'what have you done for me lately' type of league where people are judged by their last game rather than their season(s) and body of work as a whole.
Which, is all to say, comments like that make it easy to know who to take seriously and who to not.
I don't advocate becoming complacent and being scared of change when necessary, but its worrisome how quickly people forget how bad things were and what a crap show Rex and company were. Most of the time when someone is canned for not being able to get a club OVER the hump. the result is the next man in cant even get the TO the hump. Do I have day dreams of what an offensive HC could do for this club? sure. But they are only that - day dreams.
This club has a good things going and McD isnt going anywhere until things fall off a cliff and probably then is given a year to climb back up.
Those who think otherwise may want to reassess what they think they know, or at least keep it under their hats to avoid looking silly.

Some of the comments on here are just nuts. Just a slight bit of understanding as to what the contract situation actually is makes everything drama related in these 8 pages null and void. The fact is, to those wanting a return via trade or to those who think he's playing himself off the team with infighting among teammates, haven't done a lick of actually trying to understand the situation or reading what some of the quality posters have been saying. The team and player are married for the short term future at the very least and when they roll it back next year - Diggs will be out there are the #1. You want that, the team wants that, and id be amazed if HE didnt want that. But more importantly, the specifics make it so it cant be any other way

Go back outside.
Rethaw and try again.
It amazes me people find the time in their day to come on here and post stuff like this.
Like YOU have a mouth and access to fans of other teams and no one else does? This is just a weird look. Are you not really a Bills fan? Do you like trolling your own fans? Are you looking for attention? My god man... although I disagree, I at least understand the folks upset w McBeane. But to be upset with the man who brought you the entirety of your enjoyment of football over the last 4 years? Respectfully, find a new hobby. Football aint for you.

Of note, marketing materials had the standing buffalo and it was utilized in one of the sideline caps but not each version. It was very surprising they were not used as there isnt a rule stating there needs to be a break prior to switching. Its presence in official merch indicates that might not have been the plan from the get - but throwback week never came. Its the 1st instance since the blue throwbacks were introduced, that there hasnt been a sighting for at least 1 week. Obviously though it would have been white as the blue has been retired since its emergence. Its a sign something is coming as there is too much $$ left on the table with merch $$ to let that alt jersey slot go to waste. Id have guessed the all reds got the axe before the TB though. If the club had no history of it thatd be one thing, but everyone made too big a deal of Allen's trolling that it wouldn't have gone unnoticed. That being said, the wheels would have had to be in motion before this time last year. Maybe the troll job was testing the waters and putting out the feelers to ensure they are headed in the right direction.

How about we just fire you and call it a day?

Blue tops, white pants...... L to Dolphins, L to Vikings, maybe at Jets too?You are right. I was thinking white one blue as such a big deal was made about that earlier in the year

Weird that the Reds came iut this year- but we didnt see the throwbacks once. The logo was still used on ancillary merchandise but not on a sideline as it has been innyears past. There is no rule stating in order to have a new throwback, the old one must be phased out - but if you arent even going to wear it and take advantage of the merch $$ then you probably have something planned for the following year. That said, its good blue on blue gets a shake. The 90s teams had their blue on white so this iteration should own the monotones!

Both Cole and Smoke were desperation moves (smart desperation moves but moves made out of desperation) and given that both guys were off the scrap head I think they are just working both of them in slowly for a playoff run esp Cole who has more of a niche in the offense as there really is no true slot WR on the team.
This, and I'm not sure why it has to be something more. Why cant it happen organically?

HOLY CRAP?!?!? WE SIGNED COLE BEASLEY BACK?!?!?! REJOICE, WE ARE SAVED!!!
Im not sure how, but I seemed to have missed the 27 other threads where this is being discussed. Luckily, I stumbled onto this one and am now caught up....

There was talk of Bills-Jets being flexed.
I'm guessing they decided against it, as I have not heard any news on the topic.

So totally worth the click....
On a side note, it would appear the one person in this world who isnt perfect has been found!

For sure, but as fans, you should be able to call out the bad without being crucified.I mean... i suppose? Allen isnt perfect, but its pretty evident whats good and whats not. When you do call out the bad, its then often to your detriment and peril bc it just comes off as being a bit of a tool. Im not saying that to you but generally its the person who just kinda half pays attention, doesn't know what they are talking about and ends up looking like a bit of a knob as a result. Granted, this dude hasnt brought home a championship yet and to some thats the end all be all but he's not some robot who is expected to be perfect all the time and has improved this team in spades just by stepping on the field wearing #17 in red white and blue. Its a game, and he's top 5 in the world at his profession. Maybe I'm in the minority but theres a difference in a well thought out constructive criticism and coming off like a jackash because from your recliner you think he should have 'thrown it better '....

I don’t think it’s a “turn against Allen”. He hasn’t played to the level he is capable of. There’s nothing wrong as fans to call that out. What’s more disturbing are the fans that believe Allen is never the problem.But w a qb like him you take the good w the bad. Like that last laser beam yesterday to diggs. It was a hell of a throw, on target and won the game. Everyone is happy. If it had have sailed, people would have been all over him for being too agressive blah blah blah. You take the good and the bad bc thats ur qb. We are used to way more good than bad now, but if dents and dings are prohibitive of that until we get a bit of a rest then we have to accept that too. He lost us the Jets game and arguably the Vikings game. But he wins so many others ya just have to deal and it is what it is. Im not sure why people seem to have such a hard time with this relatively simple concept...

Gotta say, that game was sloppy, Dorsey needs to be fired tonight, throw Josh into a Bacta tank, but the mental fortitude on those last 2 drives is why these guys play the game and we are posting on a message board.
If only posters could be fired. Aside from the rough 2 weeks, lack of practice, condensed time between games, injuries etc its an accomplishment they pulled through and won when they needed to. Similar to the Chiefs win last Sunday night - stay in it and win at the end of the game. They needed a few bounces, but this wasnt like the Jets game where they left a ton of points on the field. The Lions gave a depleted Bills team all they could handle, and there is nothing wrong w that. If this team was doing laps around the Lions and then just weren't finishing or pissed it away thats one thing. That didn't happen today. They gutted this out and won. All things equal, the Bills should have covered the spread. It was evident pretty early however that this would take everything left in the tank to pull it out and they did. The Jets game is a game where excuses were a bad look. This one was the reality of the situation. Try and be a better fan man. There are many take aways from this game but just saying axe the OC is a lazy and uninformed take. Bad look imo

I am starting to see roster that is poorly constructed and not enough quality depth at key positions. You watch KC who lost Hill and Mahomes still has numerous options at the WR position beyond just Kelce( they had two starters out and still did not miss a beat). We lost vets like Beasley and Sanders and assumed Davis would take another leap, they then proceeded to go with mediocre guys after that.
Davis cannot be trusted not to drop balls and McKENZIE looks like he cannot be trusted and accident waiting to happen. Even when Josh has time, teams are just doubling Diggs and others are not creating enough separation. How many times when teams played zone would we see Beasley find a sport in the zone for an easy pitch & catch in previous years. For a team that throws first, the WR has become a weakness beyond Diggs. On the other side of the ball the Bills are paying Matakevich 3.25 million for his special teams, anyone recall any Steve Tasker level plays for this guy. Or why is Taiwan Jones still on this team? Both guy are making more then our 3rd LB Tyrel Dodson who looks terrible playing for injured Edmunds. It's a reason why even when team are running in down our throats we still have only 2 LB'S in the game.
We have zero quality depth at the LB position right now and are lucky Milano is healthy and playing like an all pro. How you spend your money is so important and using 4.3 mllion in cap space for Jones and Matakevich is costing us from having better quality depth at regular positions. Yes I believe that money could have been used to have a more competent 3rd receiver ( maybe even Beasley) or a starting level LB who you play on special teams. Josh needs to be surrounded with better WR's just like Mahomes has and our defence needs more than two starting level LB'S when teams start to just run the ball
I also believe Bills need to stop playing EJ. Epensa over Shaq Lawson, this looks like Beane forcing Cody Ford on the field because he was a second rounder. Epensa looks like a second bust but continues to play because of his draft status. Lawson makes more big plays on far less opportunities
Blah blah blah. Bad take, bad attitude, bad fan. Totally bizarre

Bills sign Damien Harris

This, is why you have an 'RB Room' and not an RB. 2 others on the roster add what you lament. Crazy thing is..you can even have 2 out there at the same time if you'd like!
