    I ran across this on a BR article of "Free Agents the Bills should Avoid" so take this with a grain of salt. 

     

    He's coming off injury, but it was a pectoral muscle tear. He has some injury history, but he's played well when he's healthy. Last year the best he got was a one year deal for a $4 M cap hit for the Lions. In my mind that's the perfect short term pickup as we are phasing Poyer out and grooming a rookie.

     

    What say you all?

    What’s odds he lasts an entire season while grooming that rookie?

    lol.  You trippin or what?

     

    Michael Macorkle Jones is the prissiest, most privileged southern frat boy to ever put a helmet on.  Definitely not a good fit in Bills locker room. 

     

    And seriously overrated.  

    Yup, a snow flake if ever there was one, probably owns pearls…,

    A combo of Coaching, injuries and lack of consistent productivity.  All the picks on the DL, and not a true Alpha stud among them.  Oliver is very good, but the rest, including FA's haven't produced.  

    A fair bit of what you say is valid, one could say that we have not had all the needed pieces on offense present at the same time, while using to much of our resources on a defense that has annually failed in clutch moments during the regular and especially the post season. In a nutshell, more resources to the offensive side and a modification of defensive scheme,  so that opponents don’t get a constant free release off the line of scrimmage and can’t so easily march down the field and score the winning field goal or touchdown, I could go on but I think everyone gets the point, 😂

  4. Yes! Josh should be using the Vulcan mind meld on Mahomes at every opportunity…,

    You are 100% spot on. I pretty much have said this very same thing for months now about JA, in many different threads in this forum. And most of the time, most people would Roll Eyes, Red X, Laugh, Thumbs Down, or Puke at me.

     

    The reality is that a lot of Bills fans have blinders on, and think that JA can do no wrong, and anybody who dares question that narrative gets blasted.

    Yup, Allen is our biggest asset, and our biggest problem, 

  5. It’s really sad to look at this, McDermott and Beane really need to change things up, it’s been five years of our defense first thought process  failing in the clutch moments in the post season, let’s all email blast OBD every week up to the draft, thousands  of emails and billboards as well, let’s put some pressure on these guys, Go Bills Mafia, get a go fund me going, getter done  😂😁🤣 

     

    does anyone think either of those guys think about a different draft strategy?  I don’t think they ever do…,

     

    GO BILLS!!!

    The NFL doesn't want services "colluding" like this.  They want 50 different services bidding up 2-7 seed wildcard matchups.  

    All those services need to do is collude which will put the NFL over a barrel as the saying goes, it would be nice to see the league get knocked down a peg

    Bills fans are hard on McDermott, Davis, Bass, etc., because they live vicariously through the Bills and they hate feeling like the almost-winners or losers they feel like they (not the Bills, they) might be. 

    nail on the head there Finn, except that Davis does under perform frequently and McDermott is obsessed with his defense, which unfortunately always fails in the playoffs, we just have to live with this reality 😂🍸🚬

    100% and with more upside to tap into, it’s an exciting situation brewing.

     

    If I’m Bean I try to lock him into a relatively cheap deal by starting RT standards right now. The price tag goes up drastically if he continues to improve.

    True enough, if he were to be signed to an extension now it certainly will be cheaper than waiting. He does appear to have gotten over his injured back and improved his play noticeably. But we all know that there will be a cohort here that will start whimpering immediately upon the contract being signed…,

    It's right there in the title. The man we basically got in return for Patrick Mahomes has basically been nowhere for this team since 2021. He's due to make a ton of money in 2024 and judging by his "comeback" in 2022, it seems absolutely insane that they are gonna pay him all that money next season to fearfully rehab through November and then play like a 5th rate CB when he comes back.

     

    We also have two starting CB. Benford and Douglas.

     

    Cut Tre White's ass as soon as we can. Either that or he needs to accept a shitload less money, cuz otherwise we will just be showing that this team is not serious about winning a Super Bowl.

    Don’t hold back Jim, tell us how you really feel…

    I hope we all like watching grass grow and paint dry.

     

    When is it going to be time to move on from this coach? I appreciate who he is, and what his MO is, but things are not pointing towards a Super Bowl victory with him at the helm. 
     

    I could be mistaken, but I believe that McDermott’s biggest (and only?) adjustment to his conservative nature is calling a more aggressive game in the recent playoff loss to the Chiefs. I didn’t see it, but okay. That’s a painfully slow learning curve. At this pace, he may figure out how to actually call a WINNING game on Super Bowl Sunday sometime in the 2040s. 
     

    How many more super quarterbacks and excellent HCs will come along during that time to put McDermott down every year…
     

    It is not happening with McDermott. He ended the drought, he got this franchise to a very consistent winning tier. But there are obvious limitations that he’ll most likely never overcome. 
     

    It’s very very difficult to win a Super Bowl. A lot of things must align. You can’t have a head coach that is a liability when/if you ever get the chances to bring it all home. Every step of the way with McDermott he is always one or multiple steps behind what it takes to punch through. The longer he is here, the longer we wait (too patiently imo) for the trophy. 

    This has to be the one hundred and fiftieth thread on how McDermott isn’t the answer…, try harder for your next thread start..,
