none of that has to do with the question asked though right? Both teams have consolation banners. Can Newton doesn’t have a Super Bowl ring.If the question is which team is built better I would go with the one that is built for sustain success over the one year wonder.
now, if you want to argue that Josh Allen might be the sole reason why the bills are built for sustained success rather than being a one year wonder, then I probably agree. but regardless of the reason, the bills are obviously the better built team.
Beane has had more time, more control, and we are not as good in nearly any area. In addition to this we are taking the form of what could be considered to be the wrong design. The fact that Allen keeps the boat floating so it never actually sinks is a curse as much as it is a blessing.
5 minutes ago, BullBuchanan said:I think being better "built" would imply the philosophy is different. It's the same philosophy. Cam and Josh are the same archetype, Josh is just a lot better. They were enamored with big slow WR prospects in the draft, first Benjamin and then Funchess. Their plans fell apart at WR because Benjamin got hurt and Funchess sucked.
They too brought in a former star DE (Allen) at the end of the line to try to put them over the hump.
They invested heavily in big mean with 11/12 top 3 picks invested in OL or Defensive front 7 between 2012 and 2015
It's remarkably similar

I think it’s debatable whether or not the 2015 team was better than all of the bills teams we’ve seen since 2020. What’s not debatable is that that 2015 panther team was a one year wonder whereas the team that McDermott and Beane have built here is a team that has lasted as a Super Bowl contender for four seasons and counting now.This current bills team has not made the Super Bowl like the 2015 Panthers, but they’ve also been eliminated three out of the last four years by the current Chiefs Dynasty. I’m not so certain the 2015 Panthers wouldn’t have seen a similar fate in the same circumstance.
The Panthers 15 – 1 season was book ended by two losing seasons.would you rather a team that was a one year wonder and went to and loss a Super Bowl or a team that’s competed to contend for a Super Bowl every season and winning the most games of any franchise over the current four-year span with the exception of a team that’s currently in the midst of a dynasty?
I would rather we didn't build the Houston Oilers and I wouldn't hang up my consolation trophies just because another team was good.

"have we ever been as good?"
words matter. do better.
The 2015 Carolina Panthers: Have the Bills during the McDermott era ever been better?
Try actually reading more than a title and being less condescending before you tell others to do better.

The age of posters is showing. In the early 90's we were better than the '15 Panthers.
I felt a good mature man like yourself could see the comparison was about the current Bills and not the 90’s. Next time I will post about our AFL championship teams compared to the Carolina Panthers, because that makes sense

Lack of foot speed a real issue. Great hands and body control but he was blanketed by a DB in every catch on that highlight reel.
His foot speed is excellent for a WR his size. It’s his route running he needs to work on.

Very nice. It seems that most of the commentary on Coleman is based on his one season of FSU tape, but what do people think about his Michigan State tape? Anyone know why he transferred?
17 hours ago, Billy Claude said:Coleman also said on one of the videos that he regarded being at Michigan State as a two year sentence and that he was a southern boy at heart. Not sure what he will feel about Buffalo in November, December and January.
Folks blaming the backup QB at Miami are talking like Jordan Travis missed half the season. Travis played 10.5 games. He only missed 2.5 games that Coleman played in (Coleman did not play in the Orange Bowl).
He was excellent at MSU and had a ton of interest when he decided to transfer. He went to a Spartans BB game earlier this year wearing an Izzo jersey. He talks fondly about MSU and the MSU alum I know speak very highly of him. My closest friend texted me about him right away. Said he was one of the best athletes at WR he had seen play there. I said better than Plaxico? He said Plaxico isn't close.
He has a chance to be special.

Dorsey was the QB coach, McD was the defensive coordinator, Beane was Assistant GM. They went to the Super Bowl that year losing to the Broncos. Looking at the roster two thing concerned me. They seem to be constructed in similar fashion as we have been. Specifically the WR neglect seems pretty apparent in the make up of both teams. They seem to be MUCH more talented than any version of the Bills we have seen thus far. It's nearly at every position. Beane has had a good amount of time working on our roster. This was a very good Carolina team but I don't like that it appears we have a deficit against them in nearly every position.
QB - This was Cams MVP season, but still would rather have Josh
Cam Newton
RB - Both went to the Pro Bowl that year, Stewart was actually a really good back at that time. This is close but nod to Carolina.
Jonathan Stewart
Mike Tolbert
WR - It's possible our current WR room is better than the one they fielded in 2015 🤢. Ginn was very explosive but nobody had over 750 yards. Our WR units have been better the last few years which is really concerning as far as how Beane views the position.
Ted Ginn Jr
Jerricho Cotchery
Devin Funchess
Corey Brown
TE - Olson was an absolute monster. Very high hopes for Kincaid but hard to put him in Olson's class at this stage
Greg Olson
OL- Two all pros and Michael Oher. Nod to Carolina
T Michael Oher
LG Andrew Norwell
C Ryan Kalil
RG Trai Turner
RT Mike Remmers
DL - Short was a pro bowler. This was the young version of Star. I would say DL is pretty close.
DE Charles Johnson
DT Star Lotulelei
DT Kawann Short
DE Jared Allen
LB - One of the best LB cores of the decade. Not close.
Shaq Thompson
Luke Kuechly
Thomas Davis
DB - When we had pre injury Tre and younger Poyer and Hyde we probably get that nod. That unit hasn't been intact for a bit though.
CB Charles Tillman
CB Josh Norman
SS Roman Harper
FS Kurt Coleman

Given we have never won a game from more than 4 points behind in the playoffs, I was curious how we performed against teams with winning records in the regular season.
Condition 1 : Buffalo has the ball with a drive concluding under 2 minutes
Condition 2: The team they faced finished with a winning regular season record
Condition 3: Excluded the Eagles (2023) and Chiefs (13 seconds) Multiple lead changes late. We lost these games but we took the lead on late drives. Little the offense could do.
After you remove the Eagles and Chiefs game, all 18 of the remaining games concluded based on the final score. So if we did score, we won. If we didn't score we lost. No situations left in which we scored and then lost later (outside of the 3 OT games)
What is left.....
-18 times this situation has occurred since Allen joined the Bills. We have gone 7-11 in those games (but 5-3 over the last two years)
-Three times we have tied the game with a FG and lost in OT after having at least one possession
-In two of the games we have scored a TD and not a FG
2018
Game winning FG Titans (9-7) Successful
Pick 6 to break Tie, Failed follow up Texans (11-5) Not Successful
2019
Interception, Patriots (12-4) Not Successful
Turnover on Downs Baltimore (14-2) Not Successful
Turnover on Downs Patriots (14-2) Not Successful
Game tying FG, Failed OT Drive Houston (11-6) Not Successful
2020
Game winning TD Rams (10-6) Successful
2021
Turnover on Downs Titans (12-5) Not Successful
Turnover on Downs Patriots (10-7) Not Successful
Game tying FG, Failed OT Drive Tampa Bay (13-4) Not Successful
2022
Turnover on Downs Dolphins (9-8) Not Successful
Game winning FG Ravens (10-7) Successful
Game winning TD Chiefs (14-3) Successful
Game tying FG, Failed OT Drive Minnesota (13-4) Not Successful
Game winning FG Lions (9-8) Successful
Game winning FG Dolphins (9-8) Successful
2023
Game winning FG Chiefs (11-6) Successful
Missed FG Chiefs (11-6) Not Successful

I like the title. Lamar Jackson better than Patrick Mahomes or Tom Brady in clutch drives. I would prefer seeing this to tie or take the lead with under 3 minutes. I'm sure Josh does just fine in that as well but if your life depended on six I'm pretty sure everybody on the planet is giving the ball to Mahomes or Brady.

If Josh can resurrect Claypool’s career and make him a viable contributor than we might be better than the diminished receiving corps of the last few years.
He is probably the most talented WR on the roster. Which some might say is saying something, but he's probably one of the most talented WR's on several rosters. Sort of surprised we pursued him. Not exactly a process guy. We will see.
