This is the last time I'll say this for a while, after having said it a thousand times this offseason: I'm sick of no other difference makers stepping up for the Bills in big playoff moments. I'm sick of the Bills hitting singles and doubles in the draft, but never home runs.
I'm ready to swing for the fences and try to add a potential superstar to this team. I'm ready to see Rome Odunze catch a toe-tapping, game winning touchdown to beat the Chiefs and advance to the AFCCG, and I don't mind losing out on a safety and a couple backup d-linemen in order to make it happen.
I know I won't win any new converts to my way of thinking, but I'm not feeling at all risk averse this year. Bring on the risk. Bring on a blue chipper. Let's do this thing.From a macro perspective, this is just the worst year to take those risks and potentially leveraging future draft capital imho.
-Loaded draft.
-'Reset', more holes than usual
With that said, ill quickly get on board with whatever happens, go bills!

I do think a slight reframing is helpful:
instead of calling it dead money, the bills are accounting for $31m in previously paid dollars that they would need to account for whether they kept him or not.
they do however save $22m in future guarantees
Yeah, no. Its dead money.
-
Is there room for nuance? I think this move needed to happen. But I also think the dead money charge of $31.096 million next season (a record for a WR in any season) has to be a blemish on Beane's record. A minor one and one that needs to be taken in context of the totality of Diggs time here and the positives/production he brought.
That said, I have been a proponent of a reset and believe Beane had some pills to swallow on this one, but I believe it was the correct move.
-
reset almost complete. I'm good with this.

This is a Trent Sherfield level signing. I really hope this isn't the end of our WR free agent shopping.

Wise and patient relative to most other NFL teams, absolutely I stand by that.
I'm glad to hear that you believe you have "clear eyes."

Agree with CincyBIllsFan. The Bills under McBeane have demonstrated repeatedly their patience and wisdom in bringing players back slowly from injury.
I believe there are teams who would be dressing Terrell Bernard today but not the Bills.
Exactly correct. They don't want to see Tyler Matakevich playing LB in this game. Whether as a starter or a backup, Klein was gonna get the callup.
The bills being called wise when bringing back players with repeat concussions? Maybe with other injuries.
And maybe compared to other teams, the Bills are the most patient. But thats just saying they are slightly less evil than their counterparts. And wise? GTFOH.
At least see what the league AND THIS TEAM is with clear eyes.

Still don’t understand people saying this. Unless I’m wrong about the wind a 49 yard kick is pretty close to a chip shot in today’s NFL. If you can trust your kicker to hit that you need a new kicker.
FWIW, i think jay feely said on the broadcast that kickers in warmups struggled from that side at around 50 yards

McDermott’s decision to try a 49 yard fg at end of 2q was ill advised. Converting non 4th and 7 was a likelier outcome and if you want to be conservative, punt it to their 10. The game would have been a blowout otherwise I think
Its in that situation you need to know on 3rd down if we can run a non-negative yard play, we will go for it on 4th down. Too often we go deep and take a shot instead of trying to ground it out over 2 plays.
With the weather and distance, a better play call by the coaches and/or decision by Josh is what is needed on 3rd down there, in my opinion.
A minor gripe in a sea of positives, for sure. Go bills!!

Rudolph doesn't get to 27 attempts in this weather, right?!

Bills over Rams 30-27

It's gonna take a Super Bowl to get him on SNL right?

"I'm not sure anybody wants really to play the Bills right now because they're not sure what they're going to get. They are hoping to get the inconsistent. If they get hot Josh Allen, look out," (Peyton) Manning said.

I billieve there's at least a 51% chance that one of Pittsburgh or Jacksonville loses.
Either way we are winning.

I shudder to even think about what this team will look like if Allen is NOT on the field. Go Bills !!!
Again, I do not disagree. I wouldn't trade Josh for anything and think he is one of the best players in the league

Doesn’t matter, when the game is on the line you’re expected to make a play and Josh has done that. The expectations of Josh playing perfect football for 60 minutes week to week every game is ridiculous.
not disagreeing with those thoughts. All I was trying to say was he shouldn't be an MVP favorite.

So Josh has put this team ahead in the final 2 minutes 4 times this year in games the Bills lost, if the D held up would you believe he’s a MVP if our record was 15 and 2 right now?
In close games and ugly games wins are decided at the end. If the O puts you up and the D can’t make a stop a lot of blame gotta go to the D. If the D makes a stop and the O can’t get the points it’s on them. Despite the mistakes Josh has been pretty ***** clutch all season in these situations but they all get overlooked because the D couldn’t get the job done.
There's been too many games where I felt the defense actually did their part over the course of 4 quarters and the offense sputtered. I just don't think it's an MVP season by Josh. I still think he can win us a Super Bowl this year and yes, without him we would not be sniffing the playoffs.
I also would wager Josh wins a couple of MVP's before its all said and done. Just not this year unless narrative season gets extra crazy. If you were to ask me who I'd promote, McCaffrey has my vote*

Maybe a silly thing to do, but when I remove all numbers from the equation (i know they are integral to the debate), take two giant steps back and think about the season to-date, I don't think Josh Allen has had an MVP season.
To me it's a year in that someone like CMC or Tyreek Hill should win it. Their teams look very differently when they are not on the field.

I know nothing about him but with a sick name like that, refs will not/cannot call Pass Interference or any other penalties on him. For at least 1.5 seasons or so..
