  1. 1984-1985 was rough. How could you have any interest in Joe Dufek and Vince Ferragamo? All this while Kelly was in Houston. Those were the two darkest years in franchise history.
  2. Outside of QB, Oline has to be the hardest to evaluate. The college game OL play is nothing like the NFL. Its all 2 point stances and spread offenses. Some physical traits are needed to play OT like wing span and foot movement. Outside of that its all player development.
  3. On paper. But their moves look good Yeah but he got much better as the season went along. First month he was really struggling. Hope he hits the ground proverbial running this year.
  4. Nobody woukd put Odunze and Jr in the same class as Coleman at this point. That may change. Like others have said, make Coleman go watch Anquan Boldin video. If Coleman is a low tier #1 WR that is plenty good enough for this offense. I still have hope for Kincaid but my favorite player besides Allen is Knox. I hope Knox still gets plenty of chances. Kelce is in decline. Cook is the best skill player on both those teams. By year's end Kincaid will probably produce more than Kelce. Shakir is probably a better #3 WR than the Chiefs but their 1,2,4, and 5 are probably better than the Bills.
  5. Uh oh Bill Barnwell just called the Bills WR group the worst in the NFL. Beane is going to have another explosion. https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/45679684/ranking-nfl-teams-wr-te-rb-groups-2025-season-best-players-playmakers-offense
  6. A bit?? Its crushing!! And its not revisionist history either. We were all screaming for him in real time during the draft. He's the second best player on the team in my opinion. Guys like Brown, Benford, Dawkins, Shakir and Rousseau are in that conversation as well.
  7. Thank you. Thurman could pass block but he was devastating as a receiver. Cook will learn to block but as you said let him release as a safety valve. Josh will find the open guy and beat the blitz far more often than not.
  8. Too high for Tua. He's no longer top 100 if he ever was. Seems a bit low for Cook. He's a top 4 RB in the league. I'd say somewhere in the 55-70 range would be more accurate. Brown is a top 3 RT. Dawkins played well last year as well. Will be interesting to see where they land. Benford is not a lock down man to man corner but he is very good. i think these ranking favor the guys who play in more man to man systems. Wil be interested to see if Taron Johnson makes it. At one point he was top 2 nickel in the league. I think his play has fallen off a bit the last two years, but still very good.
  9. Bills got younger on the DL. They should be better. They have major question marks in the defensive backfield at CB#2 and both safeties, but they have options there. WR group has a few question marks as well. This whole off-season may have had a different vibe if Andrews catches that 2 pt conversion. Same goes for if Kincaid doesn't drop that final pass.
  10. R u saying he acted out when with the Bills? There were no reports or even whispers about that. Of course we don't hear everything. But I think it is accurate he started on the bottom of the roster and was getting more and more reps.
  11. Im embarrassed to learn that Moulds was traded. I missed that entirely. I had no idea he was with Texans and then the Titans for final two years of career.
  12. Reed was great but I'd have to go with Slater. Slater is an all time great OT.
  13. So by your logic, OJ should not have been allowed to be sued by Ronald Goldman's parents?
  14. Nobody knows the facts but she came forward immediately after the attack which lends to her credibility. If she was assaulted and a star athlete was let off the hook it discourages more women to come forward. No one knows the facts here. Maybe the case was not good enough to prosecute. Maybe an attack did occur. If it did I hope she can get some form of justice even if monetary and can recover. If it was consensual then I hope this goes away soon and Hairston can move on with his career.
  15. Tasker McGee Moorman Christie Hopefully in time Bass will take his place on this list.
  16. 100% agree. They can go ultra heavy with Hawes on one side and Anderson on the other. D won't know what way they are going
  17. Harbaugh won a national championship and had San Francisco one play away from a SuperBowl title. You may not like the guy, but you can't dismiss his accomplishments. He's won everywhere he has been.
  18. Im not sure he is a top 10 coach. He builds a good culture. Not sure he is a top 10 game day coach. If we win the SB I will eat crow. Until then McDermott is a major question mark. To his defenders I repeatedly ask and never get an answer. How many years of failure is enough before trying something different???? For me it's was two years ago when Jim Harbaugh or Ben Johnson could have been hired.
  19. I was going to pick the same guy. If Bishop is a bust I could see Hancock making a push to start at Safety. At a minimum would love to see him outplay Cam Lewis and be the third safety. Good choice! Once the pads come on he is guaranteed to get in a fight with someone!
  20. I'm looking forward to Kincaid having a bounce back year and becoming the first Buffalo Bill TE in franchise history to get voted into the ProBowl.
  21. Shane Conlan had tiny stick legs and was drafted to play OLB before Biscuit arrived.
  22. YouTube must be pushing the same thing to all of us. It popped up on my suggestions yesterday too. I forgot the drive started with a Marino INT by Odomes. The Kelly dive for a TD, is still a top 10 franchise play in my list.
  23. They should have gotten rid of him for Jim Harbaugh two years ago. He's Dungy 2.0 with the best QB in franchise history history who can't win the big game. Ironically if Allens wins one SuperBowl, then McDermott probably makes the HOF. If Bills don't make the SuperBowl this year, he hopefully is fired. All we can hope for is a SuperBowl win or an embarrassing playoff loss to move on. We are stuck in purgatory right now. The games are fun to watch, but failing to win a championship with the best QB in the NFL is inexcusable. I know this has been argued ad nauseum but many of us only care about a SuperBowl Championship now. Playoff appearances just aren't good enough. People said the same thing about Reeves with Elway and Schottenhemier with his various superstar players and playoff failures. Reeves at least made it to the SuperBowl. They even said the same thing about Shula with Marino. All that said, let's just play the games and see what happens in January.
