lets go get Warren Sapp while we're at it

that'd be my acid test... they dip into the ranch and the lunch is over

my favorite is the guy in Canada with the outdoor "billshelmetbar" .. check this handle out on insta. they use it in all weather

The rest of the AFC East was poorly run for 17 years.

yep. I'm a believer. 55-21 record just does not lie.

solid. McBeanes are killing it again Under the radar, just upgrading everywhere. slowly and quietly. O Line, RBs, WRs.

hopefully none beyond October

no one cares

well so much for that one pretty sure the WRs signed so far are upgrades

When you can't touch the QB, you can't touch the WRs, its impossible to stop a top, quick release QB and top WRs other than a few drives per game, I am not super interested or concerned about defense. Playing the top 5-7 teams, you simply need to outscore them, so put your focus on having the number 1 offense. Focus the D on getting 4-5 stops per game (punts/FGs) when you score TDs on all but 3 of your drives. I am exaggerating, but why go nuts sweating over and spending huge $$ on D when the rules don't allow them to play? I'm glad Edmunds walked.. he doesn't generate stops, he just forces offenses to take longer to score a TD. That model is interesting but doesn't work against top 5 teams. You need to score, score and score some more. Is it possible that the flag football game at the Pro Bowl was pretty entertaining because it looked a lot like the regular game?

Give me a 100% healthy Ike Boettger and Spencer Brown not coming off f ing back f ing surgery and I'll be happy. Then draft O Line #1 or #2 and I can rest. BTW, With D Harris pounding the rock the O Line will suddenly look so much better.... McBeanes have swapped out Zack Moss, Devin S and whoever for N Hines, J Cook and D Harris. Total upgrade across the board. They are killing it. Go Bills

Yes the issue with Phillips is can a 6'6' 350 lb guy manage to stay healthy. By the way JP is a quick, rush the passer, gap shooting 3 tech, which means he is a replacement for Oliver, not a guy who plays next to him. Phillips needs a run stuffer kind of 1 tech DT with him to hold up against the run. You rarely see Oliver and JP on the field at the same time. I know, its weird a guy at JP's size is a 3 tech but he is that freaky of an athlete... now can he be healthy? that is the question. They'll examine him and see where the shoulder is and go from there. I really think Beane intends to get a great season out of Oliver in his contract year, just like he did Edmunds, and hopefully he is a part of a SB run this coming season. Then you make him a contract offer you are comfortable with but in all likelihood he gets more from somewhere else... or not

Get max production out of Oliver in his contract year, especially with Jones next to him. Jones will be extended for sure and Settle is already extended I believe. So they'll have at lease Jones and Settle for 2024. If Jordan Phillips is fully recovered from his shoulder injury , I expect him to be signed to replace Oliver, who will leave after this season for sure. So they need another DT for 2024, they have several internal players to pick from, plus the upcoming draft.

He works for the owners, who are the members of the association (called the NFL) . Owners happy, he gets rewarded. Owners are happy. Pretty simple formula.

I like the way Beane refuses to tie his hands in the draft. He will pick the BPA, knowing he already has enough players in each of his rooms for this season. McBeanes are playing the long game. I like it.

If he has recovered fully from the arm ailments (maybe he has, right?) , the guy can play. He was injured. Guys can recover from injury. H-ll, niners got to the playoffs with the last pick in the draft. A lot is possible. If his arm is just dead, then thats another story. Plus the diva factor would be an issue for many teams.

It is Frank and Teressa Bellissimo , but hey you were close. https://anchorbar.com/history/ Spent a fair amount of time in there in the late 70's when it was just a one room dive bar . We were Bryant & Stratton (across Main St. on North) students and that was our afternoon beer spot. It is unrecognizable now with all the add on spaces .. not sure if the original barroom is even there any more. Thanks for the OP. That was a time back then.

not a year to draft a WR #1 it appears. Is what it is. OL seems a better path.

don't have the cap space

good player. We should bring him back. slander? nah, just Bills Mafia being a bunch of whining babies.

I'm ready to play it back with the guys we have now. Put Harty in the slot and off we go. Fix the O line

ask again in a couple weeks . pretty silly to ask right now

This work by Beane is totally in keeping with the McBeane's process. 1. Maintain/upgrade talent, 2. don't go after shiny, expensive, aged bad boy FAs, 3. pull 2-3 starters out of the draft every year. Maintain a great locker room / QB room culture (don't let any player feel like they are alone in WNY in December- make it a family) He is doing exactly that again. This team will be top 5 for years to come. Trust the Process. It ain't flashy, but it works.

So when he and Jordan Palmer do their "The Room" podcast, Kyle will actually be in an actual QB room! I can see Josh, Matt, Kyle and Jordan kicking it around on a Tuesday evening from OBD. Pretty cool.

that's me for sure
