McDaniel hasn't been patient the entire time he's been the Dolphins coach. It was honestly his best playcalling night vs us in a while. Remember when they were up 7 week 18 last year ALL GAME and we still outrushed them by like 16 attempts? If McDaniels yesterday was calling that week 18 game, they win the division, imo.

Oh my god. Do you even remember what you said 6 hours ago? I played YOUR game.

I don’t have him top 3. What I’m saying is I think he has a shot at at least a PB this season and may even be AP2. Combine that with his age and contract, and I think you’d be hard pressed to find 8 CB’s more valuable on the trade market, let alone 45! That’s absurd.

But that’s not a unique situation. They constantly start the year underperformed and behind the 8 ball. Not defending McD here, but Burrow and Zac Taylor are running a LOT of mileage out of that single SB run 4 years ago.

Here’s my case. if the Niners called us up and said Ward for Benford, we also laugh and say no. Ward is 28. Benford is 24. Ward has an $18M cap hit this season. Benford has a $1M cap hit this season (and is under contract next year to boot). So yeah. If you wanna go by trade value, I think Benny clears Ward by far.

Are we sure Cincinnati is gonna make the playoffs? I’m kinda over this regime. But McD doesn’t let the team sleepwalk to third in their division like every year.

I mean make your case that Charvarius Ward has more trade value than Benford right now. McDuffie is awesome but he’s a slot guy. Is Taron Johnson more valuable than the 10th best CB? I’m not sure I’d agree with that either.

Benford has been loads better than Sauce this year imo. Of that list you mentioned, I think the only two players with no debate for a straight up trade for Benford would be Surtain and Johnson. McDuffie is excellent but is a slot guy. Ward is older. Jaire is old. Gardner has the pedigree and previous performance but has suffered with Saleh’s departure.

He has bowling ball body habitus. He’s like a faster low to the ground guy than Singletary in some ways.

Man you suck at agreeing with me.

Dalvin Tomlinson?

His injury only “showed up” after he made Trevor Lawrence look like Montana.

This 100%. McDaniel lost to us week18 last year when they were getting 8 yards per carry on that stretch zone play because he never sticks with the run. This was probably the best game he’s called.

I mean I clearly didn’t say that. I said “how do the Bills get Ray Davis going.” I get it’s fun to try to dunk on people. But Ray wasn’t all that effective in the first Q of the season when I wrote the topic. He didn’t look like he was pushing Cook for the job when I hit publish. Several other posters said he was no better than Ty Johnson lol. And I get swarmed by the peanut gallery for saying “how do we get this guy producing better.” Oh well. The curse of being in the arena is suffering the slings and arrows of the critics too afraid to have original takes themselves.

Imo it was the right decision to kick. Maybe Bass gets some confidence going forward. if he had missed, he would’ve been sent packing tomorrow. Kind of a win win.

I personally think there’s a higher chance he’s not in a Bills uni than in serious consideration to start. He hasn’t been in serious consideration since his rookie year. Next year will be more of the same. They will draft a kid relatively high, sign a decent FA and those guys will play over him unless they get hurt.

I wrote the topic in September.

I couldn’t use stats from games that hadn’t played yet.

Elam is what he has been since he joined the team. -a bad scheme fit -A weird locker room issue where some coaches seem to hate him -a backup level player on this defense. Folks really are gonna buy back into “he will start next year.” He won’t. He’s a backup on this team at best. McD and co thought DANE JACKSON was better than him. He was boundary CB4 LAST YEAR, behind Tre, Dane and Benford. When Tre went down, they threw Elam out there and he played HORRIBLE against Jacksonville. So they stashed him on IR and traded for Douglas. He’s not just unlucky he’s behind Benford and Douglas. McD and co have actively found other players to play over him. And they will again next year. He is a backup until he walks in FA. If Dane Jackson was still here, we all know he starts over Elam. There’s no reason to keep pretending otherwise.

It’s a metamorphosis topic. What was I wrong about? That the Bills needed to get Davis going better? They did. That he had an unimpressive first Q of the season? he did. he’s played better and made good plays. This is obvious to everyone but I guess you need to hear it from me for some reason lol.

Yes a surprise inactive

And he saw it, didn’t take any picture, and everyone else at CAESAR’s also saw it and also did not take any picture. Not one person. Hm

@BringBackFergy lost a step?

Mayfield started his first year at OK in 2015. Feels like yesterday.
