Over who? I honestly think Benford is our best CB. Dane is solid though.
I disagree, the sooner Dane is off the field the better!

I think people are underestimating how good the team was last week against the Bucs. If the Bills went for it on those fourth downs (as they usually do), that was easily a 3-score victory.I think they have found their stride on O.
The defense is going to just have to get by unless we get some help, but I think they can be at least a middle of the pack unit.
💯 this. At no point Thursday were they not in control, and that thread about the Hail Mary is honestly just ridiculous. So much overanalysis of the Bills and under analysis of the other teams. Makes sense, it’s a Bills forum, but still. For example, my guess is most posters don’t know that Mahomes has as many interceptions as Josh does. This year it seems more than ever that all of the top teams have been wildly inconsistent…a couple of them just happened to have pulled out more wins than the Bills have. Gonna be a tough game this week, no doubt, but to say the Bills have no shot is pretty disingenuous

Trolls?
We should also have easily been able to beat the Jets sans Rodgers, New England with Mac Jones, and the Giants with a plate full of slop there. We lost two of those games and barely beat the third, and didn't play like we should have.
I'm not sure it's possible to troll in that regard at this point.
The only team with a postive Point-Differential and a record better than 3-4 that we've beaten is Miami, and they played us comparably and apart from two TOs could just as easily have won that game.
What Miami game did you watch? After their first 2 drives they did absolutely nothing and the Bills basically put up 50 on them

Is it aging poorly?
Part of the reason we are currently in a playoff spot is because NYJ had their bye week already (we are 1/2 game up).
We also have the worst division record and worst conference record of any team currently slotted in a playoff spot.
We are 1 loss away from potentially dropping to 10th in the conference, with a gauntlet of games coming up.
Im sweating.

You’re sweating? With 10 weeks to go in the season??

It’s okay to acknowledge their success is largely do to scheme. Numerous NFL personnel and media do as much.
But his teams haven’t shown up in their biggest, toughest games since he has become the head coach

But he is. He’s not a good football player.
Sorry you value feel good stories over production. You’re just one of the soft ones like I correctly mentioned.
Yeah that, or, and hear me out on this, he is good enough to make the roster but isn’t good enough to play over the guys in front of him. Unless your against having guys on cheap rookie contracts that can fill
in when needed

Mahomes Kelce Reid

Allen Diggs ???????
Sometimes it’s 3 great players. Some times it’s two and a coach
McDaniel? What has he shown that makes him elite? He’s 0-2 against teams with winning records this year and Miami faded big time the second half of last year when teams figured him out. If he’s elite, what terms are you using for the coaches who are above him, McDermott included

I’ve read it-you said fire Dorsey and bring in a new OC-am I missing something?
Can you at least make a suggestion of who they should bring in? -

I'll run my posts through you next time smart ass
If you read my post, I go just a bit more deeper than just fire Dorsey.
Did you? What did you offer that was “deeper?”

I know, but why do it? Why the same guys week after week?
Who are you making inactive so those guys can be active?
it’s not modified sports, there aren’t rules that say every guy has to play -
I may very well be in the minority, but I would much rather see Elam out on the field than Jackson. Jackson does not provide much in my opinion. He gives such a large cushion he is practically begging the opposing QB to complete 8-10 yard passes. I would rather see Elam out there and have a chance of stopping some receivers right at the line of scrimmage

Von has provided very little in the way of results since he's been here. Yes, he may have provided a spark or some hope of things to come initially, but hes been a big disappointment. I definitely have some buyers remorse now. TBH DaQuan makes this D-line go, when him and Oliver are in we're solid, we have a nice rotation @ DE with Groot, AJ, Floyd and Shaq. Id like to resign Floyd and maybe upgrade Shaq but Von worries me at this point and moving forward. That money probably shoulda been used to upgrade the O/WR imho (in hindsight).
This is nothing but recency bias. He was playing really well before he got injured last year, AND Groot was playing better because if it. You’re angry he got activated probably before he should have, I get that but people really weren’t saying this before his injury. He impacted several games last season

To be brutally honest I am sick of all the talk. I dont want to hear Allen say one more time "Its on me" or "I played like S#@!". No more talk, just fix it! I don't know wth this kids issue is, but it needs to get fixed in short order. I am sick of the completely lost / mental breakdown / stoned look on the side line when he craps the bed. Nut up, get in your players faces, and I don't give a damn if they hate you for it. If they are men, they will respect you for it. EVERY great QB in NFL history including the very quiet Joe Montana has gotten in players Butts.
How do you know he doesn’t? Why do you need to see a spectacle on the sidelines? I don’t think Josh had any problem with getting respect from the players. This whole “gotta scream at your teammates on the sidelines” thing is old, boring, tired, played out

Three Giants Fined for Roles in Brawl vs. Bills
Things got ugly for the Giants late in the third quarter of their game versus the Buffalo Bills last weekend.
PATRICIA TRAINA
New York Giants defenders Kayvon Thibodeaux, Dexter Lawrence, and Leonard Williams were each fined $10,927 by the league for their role in a second-half scuffle with the Buffalo Bills. Bills offensive lineman Dion Dawkins received a $10,927 fine.
Thibodeaux, Lawrence, Williams, and Dawkins were part of a larger brawl that began after Latavius Murray rushed for a first down late in the third quarter of the Giants' 14-9 loss to the Bills last weekend at Highmark Stadium.
The officials threw four flags, three on the Giants and one on Buffalo, the penalties off-setting one another. There were no ejections as a result of the melee.
Thibodeaux was caught on camera lying on the turf kicking at some Bills players who were hitting him while he was on his back. Williams shoved an unidentified Bills offensive lineman in the end zone.
Great reporting.....unidentified offensive lineman🤣
$11k? That’s it? Diggs got fined more for throwing beer after a touchdown!!! How do they come up with the fine amounts?!

No one will be surprised, based on the past two (2) weeks, if the Bills take an L in Foxboro today. The Offense has to find itself and score points early. That first drive 3 and out cannot happen if our Buffalo Bills are going to sneak out of New England at 5-2
Well aren’t you just a bowl of sunshine this morning-MOST people will be surprised if the Bills lost today. There is not a position group on the field where the Pats are better. I know hyperbole around here is a lot of fun, but you really missed the mark here

363, with most of the big runs coming later in games, after the Bills have a lead. He is not a starting caliber running back, does not have the size to be that.
He can be an excellent weapon--if the Bills use him correctly. How many times have they thrown the ball to him on the outside, in space, giving him an opportunity to use his speed? How many screen plays?
I think for today’s NFL he absolutely is a starter. He can run, he can catch the ball, he has shown to be an adequate blocker. Should he be getting all of the Carrie’s on 3rd or 4th and 1 of course not, but that’s why the Bills have larger back up running backs (and Josh in those situations)

He's speaking more in terms of usage I think
Dolphins ground game is prolific and Niners have McCaffrey and Kittle to feed, Davis probably wouldn't get target share to justify a deal either place
I do understand that part of it. He certainly wouldn’t get nearly as many targets on those teams

Gabe couldn't even make the rosters in Miami or SF. Just doesn't get open quick, run routes well enough or catch contested passes well enough to fit in those offenses and since he doesn't contribute on ST's he isn't roster-able if he's not in the top 3.
Do you honestly think he wouldn’t make those rosters, or are you speaking fanatically? Miami had Hill and Waddle and nobody else, 49ers have Samuel and Aiyuk and nobody else

I recall. He didn’t because Mahomes went 2/2 for 44 yards in 10 seconds to put his team in range to tie the game with a FG and then went 6/6 for 61 yards and a TD in overtime. I realize that doesn’t fall into your definition of “when it counts” because, in a thread about how good Josh is, the only answer you’ll accept is “OMG he’s the best of all time”. It doesn’t matter that other QBs have won MVPs, Super Bowls, have better records, better stats, etc. None of that matters to you.
Josh is 4-4 in the postseason including a 27-10 loss last year, but postseason records don’t matter. Josh has never won a Super Bowl, but championships don’t matter. Josh has never taken the Bills to the #1 seed in the conference, but regular season wins don’t matter. Josh has never won an MVP, but MVPs don’t matter. The only thing that matters is the logo on the helmet and as long as there’s a buffalo on his helmet, then by God Josh is the GOAT.
You’re right. He was 9/16 for 107 yards. I said 8/15 for 107 originally.
He had 10 incompletions the entire game-you’re saying he had 7 of them in that 4th quarter? Provide a link to the stats you have for that 4th quarter

Always love "arguing semantics" guy.
I would take all of those receivers over Gabe Davis, btw.
Gotta love “complaining just to complain but have no real substance” guy. Fine, I’ll bite-explain to me what any of those guys have done that would put them above Gabe. I don’t want to hear what Gabe doesn’t do, I want to hear what they have done

What excuse will you guys come up with next when Kelce retires and Mahomes still wins a Super Bowl with a rookie TE?
So admittedly I’m just seeing this thread and have no interest in reading through your other probably not great posts to find out so I’ll just ask-where do you rank Josh among all of the QBs in the league? Clearly you don’t have him ranked very high, is he even in your top 10? I’m not even trying to be condescending, I’m genuinely interested

Because they're wide receivers Beane could have chosen. What's your point?
For your sake I'll assume your first paragraph is sarcasm.
We don't need two #1 WRs (although Miami has that). We need a #2 and a #3. We have neither. Davis ain't it. Nor is anyone else on the roster.
You said “notable receivers” then go in to name guys like Antonio Callaway, Mecole Hardman, Van Jefferson, Elijah Moore, Rondale Moore, David Bell, do I need to keep going? Then name several WR from this years draft who have done nothing. Notable means they have done something of significance at this point. That is my point. Just naming names isn’t naming notable wide receivers

Yeah - part of why I say Beane can't evaluate WR talent is because he doesn't even try to land great wide receivers.
In his six drafts as the Bills GM, the highest draft pick Beane has used on a wide receiver is a 4th rounder, which is absurd:
2018
Ray-Ray McCloud (6th)
Austin Proehl (7th)2019
None
2020
Gabe Davis (4th)
Isaiah Hodgins (6th)2021
Marquez Stevenson (6th)
2022
Khalil Shakir (5th)
2023
Justin Shorter (5th)
So I say he can't evaluate WR talent because year in and year out I see wide receivers that would be very valuable to the Bills drafted by other teams and Beane constantly lets them pass by.
Notable wide receivers passed on by Beane in the draft (chosen 20 picks or less after the Bills draft pick - (round - position and player chosen instead)):
2018
DJ Moore (1st - LB Edmunds)
Calvin Ridley (1st - LB Edmunds)
Antonio Callaway (3rd - DT Phillips)
2019
Marquise Brown (1st - DT Oliver)
AJ Brown (2nd - OL Ford)
Mecole Hardman (2nd - OL Ford)
*DK Metcalf (2nd - OL Ford)
Terry McLaurin (3rd - RB Singletary)
Hunter Renfrow (5th - LB Joseph)
2020
Van Jefferson (2nd - DE Epenesa)
Devin Duvernay (3rd - RB Moss)
Darnell Mooney (5th - QB Fromm)
KJ Osborn (5th - QB Fromm)
Donovan Peoples-Jones (5th - QB Fromm)
Quez Watkins (6th - K Bass)
Jauan Jennings (6th - WR Hodgins)
2021
Elijah Moore (1st - DE Rousseau)
Rondale Moore (1st - DE Rousseau)
Josh Palmer (2nd - DE Basham)
Amon-Ra St. Brown (3rd - OL Brown)
2022
Christian Watson (1st - CB Elam)
Wan'Dale Robinson (1st - CB Elam)
David Bell (3rd - LB Bernard)
2023
Jonathan Mingo (1st - TE Kincaid)
Marvin Mims (2nd - OL Torrence)
Tank Dell (2nd - OL Torrence)
Jalin Hyatt (2nd - OL Torrence)
Cedric Tillman (2nd - OL Torrence)
Josh Downs (2nd - OL Torrence)
Michael Wilson (3rd - LB Williams)
Tre Tucker (3rd - LB Williams)
*chosen 26 picks after Ford
There are SEVERAL names on this list that are suspect at best, and why do you have any names from this past draft?

This was a good week for Beane
in The Stadium Wall

Might be nitpicking here, but I don’t think that’s what this thread is about. It would be extremely unfair to judge these acquisitions, good or bad, based on what happens when they have all been with the team less than a week. Still have Philly, KC, and Miami left on the schedule
