Yup. Pretty much.

You are old enough to remember the NYG offense under parcels. Have big players, Bleed the clock, play good D.
I am betting that is where we are headed.
I would too if I had Jeff hostetler as my qb. Also that nfl version is over. The league favors offense. The rules reflect it. And in the modern era teams pass a lot. To have a top three qb and have this philosophy is just plain ridiculous. Josh allen the one man offense is saving a lot of jobs at one bills drive.

I believe that. I don't think Mcdermott wants a "josh Allen". He is dead set on run the ball, play good D and maybe control the clock. It makes me wonder how much longer Allen is going to put up with it.
I concur. This damn complimentary football bs is getting real old. Been watching football over 50 years and I have heard this term being used over and over again now more than ever the past 5. Here is a novel idea score in bunches and stop worrying about scoring too fast or praying that your defense can hold on the last drive. It has been proven way too much over the past few years that this is a recipe for failure against good teams especially in the playoffs.

Which player has a higher likelihood of being successful? One taken early or one taken late?
That’s fair.

Give the kid a chance. There’s a reason he went #33 and Franklin didn’t go till RD4.
How many quarterbacks were drafted ahead of Tom Brady?
Chad Pennington.
Giovanni Carmazzi.
Chris Redman.
Tee Martin.
Marc Bulger.
Spergon Wynn.
it can work both ways though 😂

Everyone besides Coleman is solid.Agreed. But if he hits this could go down as one of beane’s finest draft classes.

Curtis Samuel did still sign here right?
It seems like a tough ask to expect Samuel’s and a kid with 5-100 yd games in four years to equal that production. But technically you are correct. I don’t feel encouraged by that. It appears the front office and many others are though. Hope you are correct.

Please be more depth on defense that can look great in the regular season, and then disappear in the playoffs. Keep McD happy, that's all that matters
It’s what we do best

Who says Beane is done, in terms of a vet at WR?You never know.
God I hope he does. Because getting only Keon Coleman in arguably one of the best wr draft in years and was our number one need in the off-season after letting go of our 1a and 1b starting receivers, feels like front office malfeasance. Coleman better be as good as they think he is.

He reminds me of a more powerful and slightly faster Devin Singletary

He definitely does seem very capable of making catches from any angle and plucking the ball out of the air.
That may be more valuable to the team than separation,
But I gotta tell ya - Allen’s best season came when Daboll was scheming guys into separation.
And this is exactly the reason why I preferred Ladd mckonky. Hopefully he pans out.

My 2 cents is this, watch the tape. I don't give a damn about the underwear olympics. The guy gets separation, is physical as hell, quick, catches with his hands and catches a ton that Davis dropped. Also as for as the 40 time, WATCH HIS TAPE. He has no problem with football speed.
Look Im gonna give this guy a chance, he works his ass off and is very coachable. Listen to how he was when Beane called him. He feels humbled and blessed for the opportunity. Lets give the kid a chance, I bet he works out ok.
I’m not saying you are wrong. What concerns me is that in 28 games over his college career he only eclipsed 100 yds 5 times. He may end up being a great pro. I just like to see some consistency. 5 games over 100 yards in a span of 4 years is not very encouraging. That comes to 1 game a year over 100 yds in a game. No where near the production I would expect from the number 33 pick in the draft. He sounds like a project to me. The kind you take a flyer on in the 5, 6, and 7 round. I really hope I am wrong and you are correct.

Yep. That is the way to see this pick. We have upgraded on Gabe Davis as WR2. But if you see Curtis Samuel therefore as the Diggs replacement we have significantly downgraded at that spot.
Who knows maybe beane has a trade in place for a dk metcalf type player. If that is the case I would feel so much better knowing that Coleman is our Gabe Davis replacement and not our number one.

Armchair GMs are the worst. People act like they know more than Beane and his staff. It’s laughable
And those who blindly anoint beane as the second coming of Jesus Christ are every bit of insufferable.

2020 we used a 1st rounder to get Diggs. That is using draft capital for offense.
Fair enough. However I am still underwhelmed with all of the free agents brought in along the defensive line and defensive ends the past 6 years. Maybe three have played up to the level of their contract. Our draft choices outside of ed Oliver on the line are pedestrian. This is a scoring league. The rules favor offense. Josh is a franchise qb. Get him studs across the board. And off to the races. Stop with this complimentary football nonsense and put up points. Our defense come playoff time, against better offenses can’t hold them anyways. The philosophy at one bills drive needs to change.

Out of last 5 years we've used 3 1st and 2 2nd rounders on offense.
2019-C. Ford #38
2020- No one
2021-No one
2022-James Cook #63
2023-Dalton Kincaid #25, O. Torrance #59
More like 1st rounder and three second rounders.

Nice cherry picking over multiple years. Point out BB and his wins along with misses. It is a weak hindsight perspective. If you give balance it makes the criticism you give very fair. Otherwise it’s just not valid.
At that point in time it wasn’t hindsight though was it. I guess my point is that you are correct that even the great ones get it wrong. Sometimes being so close to it can sometimes cloud judgement. And because of that people shouldn’t be so dismissive of individuals on this board. There are a lot of people on here who really know their stuff. This is not an endorsement of myself either. I’m truly amazed at how some people know and understand the x and o of the game. I learn new things every time I am on here. And I have been watching for almost 50 years.

I want to visit the alternate universe where the bills picked mahomes there and he never met Andy Reid…idk that he outperforms what josh has done
Oh 100 percent. I love josh. I wouldn’t trade him for anyone including mahomes.

Which QB did you want.
I wanted Patrick mahomes the year before when we traded it for t. White. Admittedly I wanted no part of josh allen initially.

I predict this thread is a gonna be fun read 3 years from now like the "wrong Josh" thread.
Yeah I know right. All of these “stupid” people on here who wanted:
dk metcalf>cody ford
creed Humphrey >boogie basham
brian orkapo >aaron maybin
holoti ngata> Donte whitner
And then my favorite the trade up for Sammy Watkins when some of us thought it was for Khalil Mack from ub.

Beane: "This team is in transition"
in The Stadium Wall
Posted
Don’t confuse crying with stating some uncomfortable truths. Sometimes the truth hurts.
“First they ignore you. Then they ridicule you. And then they attack you and want to burn you. And then they build monuments to you.”
― Nicholas Klein
They may not build monuments to people who question or criticize the front office. But give it another three years of this and more people will want beane and McDermott gone. People need to start being more objective when evaluating beane and McDermott. People forget that it was beane who got us into this rebuild phase in the first place.
