Sure, that's a fair point. I guess the bottom line is getting the QB is what matters. It doesn't matter if you get him on your team before or after you acquire a Diggs or a star pas rusher. What matters for contention is they are all on the team at the same time. If EJ turned out to be a star, we would've been in the AFCCG in 2014 because that team was supremely talented at blue chip positions.

No that's true. But does the order really matter? Would the Bills be worse today if they got Diggs the year before they got Josh? Probably not.

Are you making that argument that Rousseau, Boogie, AJE, Singletary, Moss, Cook, Elam were ALL BPA? And they just perfectly and coincidentally fit our team needs?

Do you find it curious that in 2020 and 2021 our biggest need was pass rusher and we drafted 3 DE’s in the top 3 rounds? Or that in 2022 our biggest need was CB and we got one in the first? Or that our weakest offensive skill position has been RB and we have drafted 3 of them in the top 3 rounds over the last 4 years? The strategy is easy. Executing it is not. 31 GMs HAVE to fail every year. Everyone can’t win the Super Bowl lol

So if you want to look at some teams that have tried, and had varying degrees of success team building, they all kind of do the same thing. It will never be exactly the same, because teams are never the same. Chicago got Mitch, then went after Allen Robinson and Khalil Mack. The Chargers don't need to make a splash for WR like the Bills did after 2019. Because they have Keenan Allen and Mike Williams. But they did make a splash for a pass rusher. Oakland went out and got Adams and Jones. The Cowboys had Demarcus Lawrence and went out and got Amari. Then they got CeeDee and Micah Parsons. I am of the belief that your goal as a GM is acquire blue chips at QB/pass rusher/WR/CB and no horrible deficiencies anywhere else and you've done a good enough job to win a Super Bowl. And most GM's feel the same way, which is why those positions are the 4 highest paid and have the highest trade or draft value.

Is it weird to feel like they are the 15-16 Bills? Hurts and TT aren’t the same, but they score lots of points without throwing the ball all around the field.

Kyle Brandt is just trying to get in on the "unserious football bro" gimmick. Problem is that he isn't a former player like McAfee so it comes across as super phony. McAfee hams it up but I think that's his true personality x 100. Brandt is a total faker.

Lol you're right. I meant good teams. Team building is easy. QB - passrusher - WR - OL- CB Get top tier talent at as many of those positions as possible. ???? Superbowl

It's not an excuse lmao.

"Glauber cites the Parcells influence by stating that the Bills were built in an ”80’s/90’s old school way”. meaning that they started with the QB, built the OL, don’t draft for need etc and when they were close enough made the big move to trade for star a WR and sign a big time pass rusher. " What teams don't build this way?

They ain't the best team in the NFC.

How could somebody who watched Brady for 20 years beat the Bills not understand that rapid passing eliminates basically every pass rusher regardless?

He got beat a bunch. It didn't matter because Josh got it out fast. Good gameplanning to neutralize AD. Rick won't play him again.

I wouldn't care about that if they were trying to get a a young QB as well. It's like the Whaley method. Drafted EJ, then just bring in bums over and over and over. Colts should've taken some shots.

Yeah I watched the game. Did you have a point lol

That it required the Broncos to play overall crappy AND have two fluky turnovers back to back that cost them at least 6 points, for the Seahawks to win.

The point still stands, sloppy play.

Daboll makes it very clear that he cares about his players and they seem to respond well to it. Sorta like a college coach.

Every year. The Bills lost to the Steelers week 1 last year.

None of this is wrong. But if the Broncos don’t fumble on the goalline twice, they win.

lmao some TikTok psychoanalysis here. Wilson is a corny dude. He also donates a lot, doesn't get in trouble, acts like a role model. Doug Baldwin should be kissing this man's feet for making him relevant, instead of the next David Nelson.

We talking about 104-53-1 and 9-7 in the postseason Russell Wilson?

We should all appreciate guys like Daboll and Dorsey more. How tf did the Bills offense gain a yard with dudes like Nate at the helm?

Does Hackett have money on the under?
