By this logic, they would have been happy with the WR group even if Coleman wasn’t able to start. We all know that’s not true. They weren’t happy with the group even with their high draft pick playing right away. There’s still plenty of time for Bishop but I don’t think they drafted him thinking he wouldn’t be able to crack the starting lineup early.

They were so happy with their safety group in April that they punted on selecting a WR in the first so they could ensure they grabbed a safety in the second round. Watch how many times they let Hamlin play centerfield and see how high their opinion is.

The offense will never score but have great advanced stats.

Okay. I would go as far as to say, despite Hamlin having more picks than Hyde and Poyer in 2023 (lol) he has not been good. In fact, I think the 2023 versions of those old washed dudes (now one retired, the other basically retired collecting one last paycheck) were far better than what Hamlin has put on tape his whole career, including this year. Hamlin is probably the weakest player on the defense. You can make an argument for Williams but I think he’s played better. He is a liability because he is arguably the worst player out there, he’s slow, he takes bad angles, and he’s constantly late or out of position. He’s playing better than he did in 2022, so I’ll give him credit there. He’s still a weakness on this roster. So much so that the coaching staff is petrified to let him play single high because they do not trust him or Rapp to be the last line of defense. Bishop not relegating this dude to the bench by like week 2 of TC is the real problem. Bishop in spot duty was actually kind of atrocious. So I don’t know the argument there? Is it possible that Hamlin is bad, but the least bad? Sure. He’s still bad.

Man, we are really singing the dudes praises for an airmailed pass into his chest and a tipped ball play made by the best DB on the team.

Their EPA/play is gonna look so much better when they go winless the rest of the year.

Yeah that’s fine when they are good players. Cost-controlled crummy players aren’t worth it, and the large majority of them are.

I’m all on taking swings on talent, particularly for draft picks. draft picks are sooooo overrated.

No. I kinda liked the idea, but the Ravens need a power RB to keep the ball out of Lamar’s hands a bit and get them into loaded boxes. The Bills don’t need that as much, they needed somebody to win outside and keep the ball in Josh’s hands as much as possible. I think James Cook has more value to the Bills today than Henry.

Because despite all of that, Stafford is much better QB and we all know that?

But we did trade for Cooper lol

Yeah I don’t agree. Kelce in particular was clearing holding back his second gear in regular season because he’s 100 years old and can’t play at that level for 20 games.

About the same thing it said about Coleman, that we had to bring in Quintus Cephus, MVS, and now Amari Cooper. “not good enough to be your entire WR group”

The Titans don’t care if the Chiefs win the Super Bowl.

The Patriots and Chiefs dynasties have both had their share of struggles/vulnerabilities in the regular season, and turned back into juggernauts for their SB runs. It happened last year lol.

I don't even find them maddening any more. Outside of catastrophic injuries, we have entered "wake me up in the divisional round" mode.

He ran over a defender just this weekend lol

Ownership wanted Jones. Their jobs were contingent on making him work.

This is not the debate unfortunately. They are going to draft defense heavy like they always do. So the question is draft assets for Garrett or draft assets for JAG pluses in the draft.

I can think of lots of different ways to evaluate the OC without touching W/L. take it a step further. Damar Hamlin has been excellent because we are 5-2. Tyler Bass has been excellent because we are 5-2. See how silly that is lol

The Bills are 5-2 this year lol. I accept HC win totals and QB win totals. I draw the line at OC win totals. It should also be the time to end the game imo. Scoring twice in the first Q last week ends the game instantly. They ended up running away with it, but when you are playing bad team, you truly can win in the first Q.

Godwin just broke his leg. Sheesh.

This is true, but only recently. If Mahome was playing like this in 2018-2021, the Chiefs would’ve been not good.

Go on….. I don’t know. Probably not great.
