Eh, it might make some sense for superstar players with $100+million contracts that did something wrong that caused the breakup. Paying an ex a few million might be better than losing out on potential endorsements. There's absolutely no way it's standard practice for NFL players though. Wasn't Travis Henry up to 11 kids with 10 women? Imagine if he tried paying for 10 NDA's lol

Tyreek Hill is human filth, but I doubt he would lose this case. She was participating in sporting drills and suffered an injury. Injuries are a risk that everyone accepts when doing stuff like that. At least she'll gain a lot of followers out of this and get some $$$

For an article that's patting McD on the back for being great at self-evaluation.... there's a stunning lack of self-evaluation actually going on. He insisted he trusts his system because he has won more often than any coach in Bills history. All those wins might have more to do with Josh Allen than it does your system coach... “Had I not faked that punt, with what I knew going into that situation, it would have been a failure had I not tried,” McDermott said. “I would have gone home that night saying, ‘What would have happened had I faked that punt?’ Why aren't you saying "Maybe I should've left my franchise QB out there to go for it instead of a fake punt to a guy with 0 career touches" ? McDermott simply doesn’t see any competitive value in being chatty. And he’s still not going to disclose what happened in those 13 Seconds. He iterated he knows what happened, and it was addressed internally. McD knows what went wrong and 'fixed' it. He refuses to share with the class though...

I agree with the sentiment. Anywhere BUT the Chiefs though. Maybe we should go after Tommy Townsend. Revenge of the punters

Ralph is cheap He skipped out on the phone bill

The problem is what are you going to do with a top 15 QB that's going to get paid nearly as much a a top 5 guy ? His comparables are guys like Daniel Jones and Derek Carr. Maybe you can make the wildcard while paying a QB like that but you'll never go far

I'd say the Bills/Bengals game was a lot like the Chiefs/Bucs game. Bills and Chiefs both came out flat and got dominated at the LOS. The QB did what they could, but the rest of the team was atrocious (offense and defense). Chiefs allowed 31 points to the Texans in a playoff win. However, 7 of those points came on a blocked punt and another 7 came on a 6 yard drive after a muffed punt. You guys forced 4 turnover on downs, 1 fumble, and 3 punts. Despite the 31 points this was a significantly better DEF performance than the 27 points allowed by the Bills vs Bengals (or the most recent Chiefs game). Even the Chiefs D performance against the Eagles is better than any Bills loss. 2 forced punts and a turnover that the DEF returned for a TD.

Well now you just sound like a bitter Bills fan masquerading as a Chiefs fan lol. I don't think any Bills fan with 2 brain cells to rub together (admittedly a high bar) thinks we need an elite defense across the board. We just need one that doesn't get torched in the playoffs. Imagine if Mahomes had to deal with his defense playing like KC did against the Patriots in the AFCCG every single season. KC DEF forced 2 turnovers, a turnover on downs, and 2 punts against the Pats. That's arguably a BETTER defensive performance than any of the last 4 playoff losses by the Bills.

Did you even watch the Bucs in the playoffs for their superbowl run? Brady was mediocre and did not have to be clutch in any of the games.

Strongly disagree. With our defensive alignment I think there's 25+ QBs that could've pulled off the 13 second drive. I'll grant that maybe McD would've called different plays if it wasn't Mahomes back there, but that's impossible to know. It's part of what makes 13 seconds just that galling. It's one thing to lose to Mahomes when he pulls magic out of his butt. It's another to literally hand him free plays on a silver platter. I think the average TBD poster could've made the first throw to Tyreek.

Imagine getting fired after holding KC to 19 points in regulation (7 off a special teams turnover) while forcing 5 punts and 2 turnovers. That's light years better than any Bills DEF performance against the Chiefs in the playoffs.

Very few execution mistakes ? There were seven 3 and outs and 4 turnovers. Offensively the game was a complete slop-fest until the 4th Q/OT. I don't know that this superbowl showed much of anything other than it's possible to win even when your team didn't play well.

What I find interesting is that 24 out of the 50 voters left Josh entirely off their ballot. In what world does he not deserve at least a top 5 vote for this season ?

If you're going to have a bad game, don't do it in a national primetime game like Josh did against the Jets. Do it in a game no one is watching. https://www.espn.com/nfl/game/_/gameId/401547460/ravens-steelers And make sure to throw the ball away or take a sack on 4th down rather than 'risk' a turnover. 4th & 2 at PIT 23 (0:13 - 2nd) (No Huddle, Shotgun) L.Jackson pass incomplete deep right to Z.Flowers [C.Holcomb]. 4th & 7 at BAL 28 (0:15 - 4th) (Shotgun) L.Jackson sacked at BLT 22 for -6 yards (T.Watt). PENALTY on PIT-T.Watt, Unsportsmanlike Conduct, 15 yards, enforced between downs.

2 playoff wins in his career. Who could forget the thrilling 20-13 victory over the Ryan Tannehill Titans in 2020?

He's good but not great. I think his stats this year were mostly a result of being healthy and playing on a good offense. 1) Drops. 4 easy TDs dropped this season 2) Fumbles 3) Unwillingly to lower his head for extra yards. He had a few plays this year where he made a 'business decision' to quit on plays rather than try to plow ahead for a 1st. Not a good look when your teams QB is looking for more contact than your RB1 Mildly disappointing for a 2nd rd RB pick, but he's fine for now. No need to look for an upgrade until his rookie contract is up

I'll guess 5 years 280 mil. The next guy that signs always gets the highest AAV The Fish will structure the contract for lower guarantees and have outs though. It'll be interesting to see if Allen re-negotiates before his contract is up. His AAV is 43mm and if he was signing a contract today it would be close to 60mm. Thankfully he seems to care more about winning a championship than maximizing personal earnings.

Maybe we should ask Frazier and Dorsey what it was like to work for McD

Can't say I'm surprised by the hire. McBeane are loyal guys and like to promote from within. Brady had Josh running the ball a lot more and the offense seemed like they were having more fun out there. Total yards and points are pretty comparable between the Brady games and Dorsey games. The Brady-offense was mediocre to bad in the wins against Chiefs, Chargers, Patriots, and Dolphins. I wonder how Brady would be viewed on here had Toney not lined up offside. Or if the DEF didn't force 4 turnovers vs the Pats. Or if the Dolphins had the punt return for a TD instead of us. Ironically enough the defense saw a bigger improvement after we fired Dorsey than the offense did.

The Ravens forced 6 punts from the Chiefs today. The Bills DEF has forced 4 punts from the Chiefs. In THREE playoff games COMBINED. The defense isn't just "next level awful" we're at historical levels of choking in the playoffs.

Has a top ranked regular season defense ever disappeared this many years in a row in the playoffs ?

I didn't mention it but I do agree McD is a good coach. I just think he's not good enough to win a SB. I don't like the idea of praising him for pulling the team out of the fire when he was the primary reason we were in the fire to begin with. The losses to the Patriots, Broncos, and Eagles were overwhelmingly due to poor defense and coaching.

During the preseason if I told you we'd have a healthy Josh Allen for the whole season and that we finished 11-6 with a home divisional round loss would you be happy with those results ? I know I wouldn't. What if I told you that a coaching blunder would directly cost us a game (Broncos) and that poor defense would cost us multiple games (Patriots, Eagles) ? That our defense would force only 1 punt in yet another playoff loss meltdown? We've hit the ceiling with McDivisional. It's time to move on

I hope he gets his bag and we get a 3rd round comp pick out of it. I don't want to re-sign him at any amount. Too many miscommunications with Allen this year and way to inconsistent overall.

What dropped interception? I remember McDuffie getting 1 hand on a throw, but he wasn't close to catching it
