AJ Klein named AFC Defensive Player of the Week
Buffalo Junction replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
They will if it’s a one score win when most of the points come from field goals. Definitely not gonna get defensive player of the week when your team loses by two scores unless the defensive player out scores his offense. -
Would not “should”. McD and Beane like nepotism.... All of those guys in my post know each other, and most worked together for years. With that in mind, I’m sure they’ll go through all of any prospective OC’s calls and look at all the finite details. I’m sure McD will have a better idea after going through that tape about why Wentz has regressed than any of us. I mean, he knows that offensive system almost as well as he knows his own defense. Who knows though. McD has been around a long time, and could easily just promote Dorsey and bring in a guy like a Norv Turner to some specialist role as a go to for Dorsey to bounce ideas off of. I’m not gonna stress about it until it happens. Particularly with Pederson as Wentz’s regression will have more light shes on it after the season. For all we know he ignored practicing fundamentals all offseason and just spent time with his newborn. 🤷♂️

Other possibilities are guys that McD knows well like Mike Shula, Pederson (if fired), Matt Nagy (if fired), Mike Kafka, Chudzinski, etc. It’ll be someone with an Andy Reid or Carolina connection. Dorsey is the obvious choice, but if Pederson is available and willing to take that position I’m not sure McD passes up on that opportunity. Wishful thinking for sure. That said, it might mean that he’d pass on HC jobs with dysfunctional franchises like the Jets. No way he passes up a gig like the Eagles or Falcons though who have stable owners.

Jake Kumerow signed to 53
Buffalo Junction replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
He’s 6’4” 215 and surprisingly agile for that size. Doesn’t have a big vertical or great speed to go with that size, which is part of why he could never beat out other more physically talented WRs. Rodgers liked him because he’s a solid route runner that seems to work towards the QB or soft spots between zones when the QB is out of the pocket. Whether all that is innate or due to his relationship with Rodgers IDK. -
Sean McDermott Mic'd Up Chargers Game

I enjoyed how the Oline basically iced Bosa and ignored his explanations. -
Lions fire HC Matt Patricia and GM Bob Quinn

There’s a Tasha joke in there somewhere. -

That goes for front office execs as well as coaches? -

Top Drafting Teams in the NFL
Buffalo Junction replied to JGMcD2's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Which they might not have done if The Majik Man hadn’t been injured. Let’s not forget that they drafted the kid from Depew who would lead the league in passing yards in 1989. Damn shame, but rotator cup injuries back then were career tragedies for QBs. -
The Bills Aren't a Top-Tier Team Yet
Buffalo Junction replied to Shaw66's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
He isn’t, and that’s what has every Bills fan excited. One thing I’ve been wondering is.... What if he takes another step this year like he has during off time the previous two seasons? -
The Bills Aren't a Top-Tier Team Yet
Buffalo Junction replied to Shaw66's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Unfortunately that doesn’t take into account how effective he is in other aspects which now define QB play along with passing. Most notably it leaves 6 touchdowns out of his statistical ranking. He bumps up to 6th if you use QBR instead. Also, if you use total touchdowns he’s #5 instead of #8. He has room to grow for sure, but I’m inclined to put him closer to 5 than 10 right now. The reason for that is he’s Top 10 in every passing statistic, #6 in QB rushing yardage and #3 in QB rushing TDs. We’re also 3rd in the league in (offense) 3rd down conversion percentage. The last stat is a large part how this team is winning games with close statistical margins. -
It certainly happens. I just don’t think he has the athletic ceiling to put up Mack or Watt type of numbers, which is why he wasn’t a first rounder. That said, I wouldn’t be surprised to see him turn into one of those 7-10 sack type of guys. Coming out I was more impressed with his ability to disrupt than his pass rushing.

He’s surprisingly good at hand fighting. Seems that a big issue though is recognizing blocking angles and combo blocks quick enough to respond before they get into his body. He’s dedicated enough to get there and seems to be improving as he gains experience. I think a year of NFL 🏋️♂️ 🏃♂️ along with that drive will get him to a point where he’s a reliable starter. I don’t think he’ll truly be a top end DE though unless he somehow manages to get back up to 280ish without losing any explosiveness.

In hindsight the Janikowski pick wasn’t as bad many others. At the very least he solidified their kicker spot for almost two decades. That first year was brutal though. IIRC he only connected on around 70% of his kicks that year and the fans wanted Al Davis to stop making picks.
