Diggs seems to have lost "it" and there was the rumor of Diggs not being super happy as it is. Do you think its time to move on and look for someone more fitting?
Dude, give it s rest, there has been multiple threads on this flawed perspective already,

No one with a rep, and a winning resume wants to join that organization, granted there is new ownership, but the ownership is an unknown entity, and unproven, Snyder’s stench still lingers in DC,

Ill post a link to that as well, but Beasley was on the Shane Gillis Podcast earlier this week. He said he text Beane to come back when he left the Giants and Beane said "Ill keep you in mind." I have no doubt its Beasley.
Tried to embed the code but didnt figure that out either.
Beasley has always been a turd, good slot guy for two seasons, but still a turd,

That is the thing. There is always some excuse to explain it away. Like the Bills are the only team dealing with something. Every team has injuries and has to adjust. Some of the Bills ST play this year was just inexcusable. No idea why that guy has a job...hopefully they are planning on a change just waiting for the dust to settle.
I hear you. I guess I get annoyed by excuses and inconsistent messages. We are promoting Babich because look how great his players have performed. But we are not firing Smiley because he is a good coach but his players did not perform. Meanwhile many of the ST players were ones also coached by Babich. I dont need some massive blow up. But many teams around the league get better by adding talent to the coaching staff yet we already have the best staff top to bottom so dont need any help.
Like i said its never so cut and dry, every organization, to include every household, family businesses, corporations, and all NFL teams, ALL have less than perfect outcomes, the reason for this is that “humans” don’t do perfect, you, me and every other swinging d-c/k on this planet has flaws, that’s never gonna change, so get comfortable with it, all one can do is go with the least objectionable choice, just like when we vote for our civic leaders, no candidate is gonna fulfill all the things you want done, you just have to chose the one that will “F” things up the least…,

We consistently hear about execution being the reason for the Bills losses and primary theme to playoff exits. The close games are discussed as a supporting narrative to McD success. A lot of these games had time out blunders, penalties, dropped passes, poor play-calling, etc. At what point is responsibility taken for mistakes in most of the close losses and playoff failures?
That does not mean McD needs to be fired but at some point some new blood should be brought on the coaching staff. They blame lack of execution but then promote position coaches who coached those players that resulted in lack of execution. Coaches get credit for players that play well. But when that is not the case its all on the player. Cook fumbles and he is benched for a half. There is a consistent trend of blame that seems to occur all too often. Then whether it be from the Bills themselves or the folks that work for the Bills via WGR talking the story always changes. Is it too much to ask to bring in someone from the outside that has an eye for detail which is lacking on this staff. It just feels like settling for getting close which leads to complacency and the inability to get over the hump.
Special Teams - Matt Smiley still has a job because the issue was not coaching buy execution. So the players fault not the coaches.
Dorsey Fired - Early on, not Dorsey's fault. No matter how much people complained the narrative was "you want to fire the guy that has one of the top offenses in the league? Are you crazy?" The plays are clearly there it is the players are not executing (penalties, dropped passes, turnovers, etc). Then he is fired and it was an issue with the job he was doing all along. Brady is clearly better.
Babich Hired - The main justification I have seen is how well safeties and linebackers performed when he was the position coach. So the coach gets the credit in this case for good performance. But players not doing well in other cases is all execution and not the coaches fault.
Josh and the "low positive" thing - Initially sold as a positive. Josh needs to settle down. That is why we are giving him easy throws early on etc. Now the narrative post Dorsey is we need to let Josh be Josh and that is what Brady does. Ok so which is it, let Josh go superman or we need to settle him down.
It is Shades of grey my friend, the world in not black or white, sometimes it’s the coaches, sometimes it’s the players, always been that way, always will be, relax don’t sweat the stuff you can’t control, 🍸🚬😁👍

I made a pithy comment a while back about only trusting Rodgers in his taste in drugs.
Look, I am not expecting football players to be MENSA members (though there certainly are some extremely intelligent players in the league) but Rodgers has gone completely 'round the bend. From being a vaccine denier, to claiming alien sightings are being used to hide Epstein updates, to explicitly stating that a (arguably not very funny) comedian who mocked him will be revealed to be a child molester.
He has become a liability
A Ron is a classic example of the Dunning Kruger Syndrome…, sadly there’s a lot of that going around nowadays…,

Josh will start to run out of time in about ten or so years, what Josh needs more than anything else is two boundary WRs that get separation and CATCH the ball, he already has the short to medium route guys. Give him that and an OC that knows what he is up to and we will be fine.

When I read a post like this I am left confused. The word "he" is employed 5 times and then "him" once. But not once is the "he/him" defined or referred to so that reader can understand who is being discussed.
I get that I could recycle back through two pages of conversations and solve this, but may one solid reference would be an aid to understanding.
This is not an uncommon occurrence in threads here, hell, people don’t even mention what happened on plays or what the score is in the GDT, I have become accustomed to this and end up going back several pages to see who is being referenced, SOP for message boards.

I actually wanted him. I was relieved when they said "Allen" and not the wanna be Josh.
I too was in on Allen, one of the few times I was right about a draft pick 😂

Yes we do. But I pray to God we don’t go after some speed dude with concrete for hands!
Remember back a few seasons ago when we had the worst receiver room in the league, and Beane and McDermott went into the next draft repeatedly saying that they wanted receivers that had good hands and speed as a priority…, we need this as a priority again.
What we need is (“fast boundary receivers that can run a whole route tree, with great separation skills and glue for hands”) 🤞. We essentially have been running one guy (Diggs) into double teams and two high sets, without a #2 wr that can draw away coverage on a regular basis, this needs to be a priority fix. Don’t care how they do it as long as they are successful implementing it . It will be interesting to see what Joe Brady’s offense develops into with a better # 1b / #2 option.

What I was trying to get at is when did we get in the business of training coordinators when we should be concentrating on winning the SB.
Don’t bother with this guy, he is on a constant whining rant, just look at his last ten or so posts, says it all right there,

No one wants the Washington job.
This is likely true, there are some places where taking the HC gig is detrimental to one’s career, Washington has been that place for some time now, granted there is new ownership and a good cap situation, but it is a complete unknown organization at this time, but someone will take the chance, and accept the pay check offered,

How generous and selfless of them to accept promotions on a team with championship caliber talent. We are all indebted to them for their painstaking sacrifice and commitment to the Bills. Let us collectively start a go fund me for both of them to exhibit our gratitude!
Like any weatherman, your posts here exhibit why you are wrong the majority of the time…

Didn’t you know? McDermott has all new hires lobotomized so they never contradict him…, it’s part of the process…, 😂
