Josh McDaniels had a meeting with frustrated leaders of the raiders namely Davante Adams, Josh Jacobs, and Maxx Crosby….if there was ever a defensive player who was meant to play in front of Bills fans it is Maxx Crosby.
He did just over a month ago.😉

Where is the DTs?
I'd trade Elam and Ford or Settle (maybe both) to Dallas for Mazi Smith. 😁

Would you throw a 5th to Green Bay for Rosul Douglas? Playing well and also has another year on his contract. Could help not going after another early CB in the draft. I've seen a couple of articles involving Dallas and a 5th.🤔

The turnovers have literally dropped off the earth to ZERO since Jones and Milano got injured.
Almost had 2 int Thursday night if they weren't dropped. Close to a fumble on a botched snap as well.

I just don't see any good trade options to improve our defense all that much. None of the DT ideas I've seen excite me at all. A true #1 caliber CB is unlikely to be traded. WLB is a non-premium position and can be papered over just fine. On defense the realistic path to substantial improvement is Rousseau, Miller, and Oliver recovering from their nagging injuries and becoming the best versions of themselves.
On offense on the other hand there is no realistic path to substantial improvement with the current personnel. Nobody is playing injured, we're kind of just stuck with the limitations we have on that side of the ball. Adding Hopkins or Henry creates an immediate and clear path to substantial improvement.
What about someone like Kendall Fuller from the Commanders? Or a Michael Pittman from the Colts? They were looking at possible trades before the draft. Both would be rentals at this point, but could possibly be re-signed.. Don't know what it would take for a trade though.🤔

Going to be interesting to see what if, anything, “one game” before the trade deadline influenced…Offense looked much better in 11 personnel.
Diggs/Gabe/Shakir looked like a legit 3-wide.
Is that the springboard for consistency of was it just one game? Do we believe Harty/Sherfield is adequate depth should we revert to more 11?
Poona Ford had his best game as a Bill. Looked like he finally had his sea legs under him. Only one game though.. and prior to that, he was a liability in replacing Jones at 1T.
Jackson/Benford look like a slightly above average outside CB duo in our system. If Elam is traded or so far gone that Norman is active over him.. we have no depth.
We don’t seem to have a 3 down LB outside of Bernard. They don’t trust Williams yet. Dodson is a liability against the pass. We’ve gone to Dime in passing downs. Is that sustainable? Do we need a true 3 down LB?
Still have Isabella on the bench. Also Ankou back. So we have a couple to pull for wr and dt.
Personally, being a Williams fan, I think he needs to get snaps. Not going to improve much without experience. Also have Klein and Matakevich if push comes to shove. Or stick with Dime if needed. Could be a lot worse.
I'm disappointed on the Elam side. I was very hopeful, but, if he can't get on the field, I understand moving on (very unfortunate). So I put CB as a priority at this point.
Not to jinx anything, but Edge and Saftey are also on my mind to look into.🤫

Before - Bills vs SF
Think - Bills vs Lions
Want - Bills vs Panthers...😁

Let's see if he plays this week. If King Henry/DHop are inactive this week, then there's smoke
I keep trying to picture him in the backfield, but I just can't get there.🤷🏻

With the way the O looked Thursday and Shakir, Davis and Dalton looking better, does it change your mind at all as to the trade deadline and position priority? Or if a trade is really needed?

Ahhh, let’s be serious. There is zero chance a guy wearing a Ridell helmet is hurt by some other dudes bare hand.
I don't thinks is so much as getting hurt, but if you're going to penalize someone for holding up a peace sign or for a headbutt, throwing a punch or swinging a helmet shouldn't they be one as well.🤔

Of the 39 players drafted after Elam and before Cook, 9 are playing teams only.
PFF ranks 13 2022 draft choices in the top 32 for their position.
Elam is ranked 5th from the bottom of his draft class of those 30 players that are ranked.
On a positive note, at least he is "Ranked"...😁

5 times he's been eliminated in the playoffs. 5 times Allen's years have been wasted
I wouldn't say we've wasted 5 years. He's gained a lot of experience over that time.
If you really thought the Bills were Superbowl contenders for his first 3 yrs, that was a big mistake!

I think if you look under a microscope the d is performing good enough to win games.
but as a HC, McD is placing far too much trust in this battered defensive unit to get stops when it has proven time and again this season that it cannot get off the field. He needs to start being more aggressive on offensive and let that unit close games instead of trusting the defense.
in short, as a DC, McD is doing fine. As HC, I think he has done a pretty lousy job this year
As I said, I am one of the few. The way I see it is McD took on the DC role in addition to the HC role. That's a lot imo. I think It takes a little time to learn how to balance all that. I don't thinks he's the one holding the O back from being aggressive. I put that on Dorsey. If anything, I think McD is calling a defensive game the way he is to offset Dorsey’s shortcomings. Trying to give Dorsey time to get the O on track. It just hasn't been progressing the way it should. Last night way probably one of the better games, but I don't think it was Dorsey. The O started puttering again and McD did what he could with the tools he had to hold on for the win. If not for dumb penalties, they would have stopped them, what, twice on that last drive?
IMO, it's the OC, not McD.

The reason I include McDermott in this is because he is the leader of this team. As the head coach you are responsible for all of your subordinates. If you can’t get offense to change his philosophy then you are part of the problem. It’s a leadership issue.
True, but as a leader, you're only as good as the people underneath you. Make a change when you can at OC, and I think things get much better. It's sounds like Dorsey is still using old playbooks. Maybe he should call Daboll to get the translations correct. 😁

It’s crystal clear that there needs to be a significant overhaul of the coaching staff. We can’t continue to make boneheaded Junior Varsity level coaching decisions. McDermott and Dorsey are at the top of this list. The 3rd and 2 shotgun draw is absolute insanity.
I may be one of the few, but I like what McD is doing on D. A little more aggressive, but not over the top and considering who is out for injuries I think he is doing pretty darn good. Perfect, no, but pretty good. I think he is pretty hands off on O and let's Dorsey handle that side. That's where I think change needs to happen. Dorsey has his moments, but was the wrong choice for OC. Some of his play calls boggles the mind. I think they'll get a new DC this offseason to allow McD to get back to being a HC and I wouldn't be shocked (one could hope) if a change is made at OC.🙏

Nope! Still handing off in shotgun and calling stupid wr screens. Cook is ripping it and he puts in Murray. Did way better but no game ball. Should of been up by 30
I think Josh called some of the early plays when we were running uptempo. Could be wrong, but I'm sticking with it. People talk about McD riding Allen's coattails, but I think Dorsey was holding onto Josh's cape last night and started dragging him down in the 2nd half. Let the man FLY!! 😄

How about a little I formation w/Gilliam and Murray from inside the 5 or some jet sweeps? Jeepers, Gilliam is what 240? Why have a "FB" and not at least use him once in a while inside the 5? Try a couple jet sweeps throughout the game to at leat give them something to think about when we get there.🤷♂️

I'd give them Hines and a 5th.
Change that to Harty and I'm on board!😁

Isabella makes no sense? Are they sitting harty ?
should I get my dumpster and lighter now ….. or after the game?
I actually like Isabella being brought up. I'm hoping he gets some targets to see what we got. He's got some wheels and just a little bigger. Why not? Harty is/was a waste of money.

If they activated Josh Norman in place of Elam I don’t know if I’d laugh or cry.
Both!

Most likely or just a swap of late rounders - like 6th and Elam for a 5th. Pointless if you ask me, I would only do it for another player a team is looking to unload.
Trade with the Vikings. Lewis Cine for Elam. Straight up.😁

Haha, that seems weird. Let’s call the Eagles and ask about AJ Brown too! Why would a SB team trade one of their better players? How does that make sense?
and the guy they should ask around about is Jordan Hicks of Minnesota. Playing great and won’t take much.
I saw Hicks in a "Rumor" post about the Bills. If they are talking to the Vikings, I'd also be interested in Lewis Cine. Maybe a package deal.😁
