Geared this season or in general? not sure I agree with the second if so.

By Stephen Hauschka? It was.

Just to be clear, I wasn’t making you a target. I was calling the article stupid and jokingly saying it’s only purpose is to give you a chance to bump your thread to continue clown on the Browns for giving Watson that ridiculous bag. A poorly written post, I suppose. But the intention was not malicious in any way.

In fairness, he tried. The 19 OL was better than 18, but it would be hard to be worse. the 20 OL was our best OL in a while, and probably the best of Josh’s career here except for 23. It is not as simple as “overpay 5 good OL players.” It’s unaffordable. Beane’s philosophy for OL was being in like 8 guys on decent money, cut/trade who doesn’t stick. It was a money waster but they cobbled something together and they had dudes like Daryl Williams playing like borderline All-Pros or Spain who was a fine RG for cheap. It just didn’t last. but yes, I fear that Beane has skated because he drafted Josh. And that’s fine if that’s your argument. But the rest of the team is massively overrated.

this is a terrible article. nearly every athlete ever has given the “block out the noise and focus on the team” answer. I swear, these articles exist to keep @DrDawkinstein going. “Can you believe Deshaun Watson didn’t come out and say he’s sorry he abused all those women at a random TC interview AGAIN this year?”

He’s going to be on AC during the season my man.

That’s not surprising tbh

In the biz, we call this a verbal headshot. Oof.

If you are on a blood thinner, you probably shouldn’t play contact sports.

Knox is the best separator on the team?

Is this sarcastic?

Put another way, if the Bills had signed Mooney this off-season, is he penciled in as the starter at the boundary on day 1 of camp? I think he is, comfortably.

Fields averages 166 yards passing per game. Bridgewater was terrible “just trust me bro.” Come on bro.

Samuel’s 800 yard season came on a season where his team was 18th in the NFL in passing yards. He was behind 2 other 1k yard receivers in Chosen and Moore. It was also in 2020. Mooney’s 1000 yard season, he was on a team that was 30th in passing yards and 29th in attempts. He was the only WR to break 500 yards. And it was in 2021. Field > Bridgewater as a passer is such a bad take, it’s shocking. Teddy had a 10 year career after a terrible knee injury that almost ended his career. Fields is 3 years removed from being a first round pick and was traded for a 6th, after starting all of 22 and getting his team the first overall pick. Come on bro.

I think contract/market or draft position is probably as close to objective as we can get as observers. Like we don’t argue that Coleman is better than MHJ, right? He might be, sure but we know that MHJ was WR1 in the draft and Coleman was not. So ultimately while contract isn’t perfect, and nothing is, what we do know is that Mooney commanded $5M more than Samuel despite worst numbers. Which would point to me that he had a higher market, which would also point to that he is thought of as more valuable. I like Samuel a lot. Him and Mooney were actually both my wishlist targets prior to the off-season. I thought Mooney was going to be completely undervalued by the league because he was held back by arguably the worst passer in the league. I was wrong, clearly the league saw what I saw, which is a guy who was held back by his garbage QB. So yes, I think Mooney would walk in as WR1 in this room. His 1k yard season with Fields was more impressive than Samuel’s 800 yard season. Imo.

Um Darnell Mooney got $13M AAV. That’s more than any player on the Bills. Samuel, our #1 paid WR got $8M AAV. He put up 1k yards with a QB who can’t throw the ball. That’s better than any season any of the Bills WR’s have ever had. Do you think he got paid $5M more than Samuel because the NFL thought he was a worse player or a better player? Honest question.

That’s what Vegas says. The real question about the Falcons is their defense. They only have a few names on a unit that wasn’t very good last year and they used their nice draft pick on a position that won’t play for 2 years outside of injury. That was the whole commotion, they tried to do two timelines and it may cost them in the short term (or pay off in the long run.)

I believe that’s why they signed Kirk Cousins to a major deal. To make a playoff push. FWIW, Vegas has the Falcons -120 to win the division. The only teams with better odds to win their divisions is the Chiefs and the Niners. https://www.legalsportsreport.com/odds/nfl/division/#nfc-south so yeah, you’re right. Vegas agrees. Thank you for the support.

London would be the best WR on the Bills and our instant WR1. Mooney would be the best WR on the Bills and our instant WR1. Kyle Pitts has not been elite like he was supposed to be, but after a great rookie season and a disastrous year 2, he caught 50+ balls for 600+ yards. Those are Dalton Kincaid numbers. So I consider TE a wash. Bijan and Allegier vs Cook and Davis is tougher. I love Cook but gun to my head I think Bijan is more talented and I’d take him for 24. so besides that, sure we are better. Easy peasy lemon squeezy.

They aren’t ranking the Falcons last year bro. They are ranking this year he also wasn’t a starter for the Falcons. He started 3 games. Tour of untruths continues.

Fifth in targets, fifth in production, neither of which are #2. JAG numbers from a JAG.

Lmao you said Mack Hollins was their #2 last year (he wasn’t) and he may not see the field here this year. It was the crux of your argument as to why we should be ranked higher on Sharp’s weapons ranking (which included TE) It was intentionally misleading at best. Nobody fact checked you because they assumed you wouldnt be low enough do such a thing. Dishonesty knows no bounds I suppose.

Just so we’re clear, Mack Hollins was actually 5th in yards on Atlanta last year. He was also tied for 5th in catches. Jonnu Smith, a garbage TE, and Bijan Robinson, a really good RB, cleared him by a mile in receiving production. maybe it was your subjective opinion that he was second last year?

I think it’s a funny nickname. I don’t have a high opinion of Mack Hollins but I’m not gonna trash the WR’s any chance I get in this thread. Let folks have their fun.
