    I have little confidence that Josh gets right against the team and stadium that has given him fits lately. The Jets corners will handle the Bills’ WRs and their LBs will be roaming the middle and taking that away. It will be a frustrating game to watch. 

    This is why I can’t believe they fired Saleh and created a circus leading up to this game.its a game they had a really good shot in to take the division lead

     

    they could certainly win still but why add extra distractions on top of it

    Diggs to get a boost.

     

    Nico Collins was allowed to sprint so unimpeded down the field that he blew out his hamstring and he has been placed on IR.  Will miss a minimum of 4 games and maybe lingers longer.

    No idea how the boost didn’t really come in the second half of this one though.  If he’s still a wr1 Diggs/dell/woods/schultz should’ve been much more than enough to put that game away comfortably with the bills having huge weak links at nickel corner and Hamlin at safety. 
     

    Diggs had a pretty good game but man I think prime Diggs goes off there

    We won't ever know if a wr shines or fails if we don't even draft one. I wanted us to trade up for Brian Thomas but that would've taken a bite out of McDermott's defensive draft picks, like Bishop who got burned yesterday. We absolutely needed to draft a minimum of 2 wrs last April and instead Brandon went dumpster diving on Josh's behalf.  120M on Von well spent 🙄🙄.

    Eyeroll for the snark about the safety pick which was just as big a need as wide receiver honestly.  The guy got burned by probably the best receiver in the league early in his first start 😂

    When the Jets were looking to move on from Zach Wilson both JD and Saleh wanted Carr but were overruled by Woody Johnson. Johnson was the one who wanted Rodgers. If Rodgers wants Adams, then Johnson will tell JD to make it happen. It seems like JD is just a puppet GM at this point.

    Oh yea I get the logic…but he might know he’s a dead man walking anyway and act a little more disgruntled 😂

    Jets are all in with Rodgers. If he wants Adams, they will make it happen. I'd be shocked if he doesn't end up there. The owner just fired the head coach for Rodgers, they will do whatever it takes to make him happy

    It’s such a weird situation over there because Joe Douglas is probably on salehs side I’d think.  Is he out this offseason now?  Does that make him more or less likely to trade for Adams? I genuinely don’t know

    I was not a proponent of the idea of trading for Adams -- really did not give it much thought because I just never really saw it happening. But I keep having flashbacks to all of those targets that Hollins received in Houston, and wondering what a difference it would have made (especially in a close game) if it was Adams receiving those targets!

     

    So many moving pieces here. A few days ago Adams reportedly said he would be willing to go to the Bills, so I don't think his preference for playing with one of his former QBs precludes him from going to Buffalo.

     

    I have maintained all along that the 2 biggest holdups to making the trade happen are: the $ and the team's philosophy. That said, Beane showed that he is willing to shift gears in terms of paying aging veterans when he signed Von Miller prior to 2002. But the $ and salary cap restrictions remain a real concern. I am not sure that they can reasonably take on Adams contract without the Raiders picking up a sizeable portion of it -- at least for 2024. The latest reports indicate that the Raiders are not willing to do that -- but will higher draft compensation tempt them to do so?

     

    I for one would be willing to "overpay" in terms of draft capital (a 2nd round pick +) if it means getting the Raiders to do what is necessary to fit Adams under the Bills' cap and play in Buffalo for at least 2024 and 2025.

     

    If they think they’re a wr away and it’s the type of guy they would’ve picked up in the offseason via free agency anyway I could definitely see beane making a wr move. 
     

    he’s gotta be kickin himself not beating out the rams in the von trade in 2021.  Yea you give up future assets but in hindsight that’s probably a Super Bowl win if he pulled the trigger.  Von was a beast in the playoffs that year and was great for us up until that fateful knee injury 

     

    I think we’re probably a big-ish splash wr away but idk that beane does. Mild reshuffling on the oline and a few new faces at skill positions could cause a slower than usual start and the defense could be good/great when taron returns is my logic 

     

    there’s too many defensive players stepping up to not roll the dice on a deal you like at wr

    So hard to believe that a team led by rodgers at QB, head coach, and GM is so obviously a dumpster fire this early in the season, isn't it?

     

    Goes back to what I said again and again and again since the jets brought him in.  No reason to ever be concerned about the rodgers 'led' jets, and laughed out loud at so many predicting fantastic success for the jets now..

     

    Four sacks for the Bills this week?  2-3 interceptions?

     

     

    That’s the crazy part, they’re pretty much built to win now and they fire their coach midseason in one of the few years Aaron probably has left.

    watch him not even be traded after all this fuss

    call Seattle and beg for Metcalf

    I feel like that’s usually what happens lol. Raiders have to be pretty upset the way the last week went down, jets are a complete unknown now and saints losing Carr could effect their interest

    And most of them know they would be better off if he was still on the team

    I really don’t think it’s as big of an upgrade as y’all are insinuating.  Whether he was mentally checked out or physically checked out or what the dude was mostly getting locked up like our no name wrs are this year down the stretch of last season without it taking a ton of defensive attention.  It was frequently happening in the playoffs too even in his prime


    that’s likely the main basis of beane eating the cap this year to get his wr1 contract off the books that was gonna turn into a bad one.  
     

    I really don’t understand the trade from the Texans side so far (of course there’s a ton of season left though). Seems like diggs is just cannibalizing tank dell’s targets.  If he was still who y’all say he is,  playing opposite Nico collins who is outstanding should be getting him an insane amount of opportunities 

  10. 46 minutes ago, zow2 said:

    Maybe we find out Josh really does need Diggs to succeed at an elite level? Hmmmmm, we shall see.

    They might need a true wr1 that can make tough contested catches down the sideline and has some speed but Diggs is not quite that anymore imo. He’s a good wr2 talent wise 

     

    collins went down and it is honestly pretty crazy no pass catcher on that Texans roster really stepped up to fill the void a bit more going against the likes of cam lewis and a rookie safety that missed time in training camp making his first start, and damar Hamlin 

     

    prime Diggs would’ve ROASTED there but it seems like things got pretty tough for them.

  11. I think it has more to do with the style of game and we just happened to have two in a row this way (possibly more coming lol we shall see). Games that go down this way he definitely has always gotten happy feet.

     

    i do think the roll out right to buy time is somewhat of a practiced situation though where guys know what to do once josh does it but he might rely on it a little too much in these style of games though

    Diggs has passion. a lot of guys don't. he and several players know McClappy is full of it. can't have them on the team because they don't buy in to the process.

     

    the media and all of that never liked him because he's not full of crap. the young reporter girl for the bills doesn't like him because she is some 20something year old goofball girl vs. a professional. her pretend  ivory tower doesn't deserve respect.

    I don’t think he’s as bad as the diva allegations claim but he’s certainly not what you’re explaining either 😂

  13. 2 minutes ago, balln said:

    Well he broke his hand landing on it there. So of course he’s protecting himself more 

    He seemed to be sliding more towards the tail end of last year too I don’t think this has a been in response to his hand/this season.  Even the ‘hurdling in from 10 yards out’ play didn’t seem particularly high risk…the defender went extremely low 

  14. 32 minutes ago, balln said:

    These injuries are a large part his own fault. Sorry he’s not getting a pass. This year 

     

    maybe instead of running and jumping / hurdling in from 10 yard out week 1.He learns to just become elite anticipatory accurate thrower in the red zone. His passing metrics are bad near goaline

     

    prob should have just dirted that trick play - but I’ll blame OL and Brady for that 

     

    then lastly. Hes not going to be able to bail right and live that way for his career. He’s gonna have to learn to navigate and step up the pocket and throw w good platform more

     

     

    I feel like we’ve been running into eachother on these Josh posts often enough where this doesn’t need a super long response haha so for this one I’m gonna stick to…that week 1 play really wasn’t a hurdle at all or even that dangerous of a play….it was more of a sidestep than anything. He’s clearly been protecting himself better this year and people are starting to complain he’s possibly protecting himself too much it seems 🤣

  15. 2 minutes ago, balln said:

    Hes winning. And in command of the offense and the situation. At all times. I’m not looking at it from a hard stance of numbers / stats this year. 
     

    His defense is dragging the lifeless husk of Patrick mahomes around 🤣. Of course you’re not looking at number/stats or giving it the eye test haha because that would make you objectively wrong.  
     

    my original comment was ‘do people think mahomes is consistent this year’ 

    3 minutes ago, balln said:

    Nope I’ve been consistent. Mia game I was very concerned w their passing game. The BAL game Allen was bad. And then this game. Historically worse. Let me say that again. HISTORIC. 

    So you get caught up in niche Allen stats from an individual game this year like completion percentage when attempting x number of throws but will not even check on what mahomes has been doing at all 😂. Got it!  Makes perfect sense 

  16. 2 minutes ago, Success said:

     

    Ridiculous reasoning.

     

    Why does Mahomes get a pass when there are a few injuries?  Allen has had to work with sub-par talent most of his career here, and VERY sub-par coaching compared to Mahomes.  And Allen was missing his #1 receiver last week too.

     

    You can think he's better.  Lots of people do.  But at worst, it's extremely close.

     

    Because must be as negative as possible after a loss 🤣. Mahomes has looked very ordinary this year and excuses aren’t allowed when talking about bills players but the same exact statement can be made to prove non bills players are superior lol

    His tackles are atrocious. His#1 wr is out. 
     

    hes 100 times better then Allen in every way. Most importantly- composure / command of the game/ offense and situation. 
     

    Time to wake up everyone

    I think finally for once mahomes and Allen’s respective situations are converging and it will be the cleanest comparison year we probably will ever have between the two and the results haven’t really supported your conclusion so far.  We shall see though for sure..  when mahomes isn’t getting elite oline play and isn’t stocked with explosive wrs, he doesn’t look next level like you are explaining.  
     

    He has made plenty of boneheaded mistakes this year, looks lost at times, and so on.

    I don't think these WRs are savvy enough to cut off routes and find soft areas in the coverage.   Or maybe its just not an aspect of Brady's offense. They all seemed to just continue their routes even when blanketed.  I saw a number of times they could either cut off a route, or identify a coverage to get into better situations.

    That definitely seems like an issue…SOME of these missed throws seem like josh is throwing to the spot he’s expecting them to route adjust to and they haven’t really been doing it.  That could be somewhat correctable I think but we’ll see 

  19. 6 minutes ago, Success said:

     

    He had more plays w/ WIDE open receivers yesterday than Josh has had the the whole season.

     

     

    And when he doesn’t which has been the majority of their games this year he’s been kind of a mess lol

    It's like, why should it be that the Jets will be "fired up" because they just fired their coach because they aren't good so now we're in trouble because they need their coach to get fired to actually play well?  Why can't we be the ones that are fired up because we lost 2 straight and are the better team, come in and take care of business?  It's always the other way and its annoying.

    Because the overly negative posters that lurk the gameday threads have stayed a few extra days this week 😂. I think without all this craziness happening to the jets they had a real shot at beating us and now it’s more of a distant chance

    No way in hell they’re firing him. Owning the Sabres is the ultimate juxtaposition as to having the worst team year in and year out in professional sports league. Paying coaches and then forced to fire and eat all that $ w contracts. He wants NO part of that w the bills. No no no. Sean and Brandon are more than good enough. And it’s sad bc we are in HC and FO purgatory ladies and gentlemen. I thought Allen would have to ascend to mahommes level / elite consistent qb play. But I don’t think Allen ever will. He needs help. Get ready!

    Do people think mahomes has been consistent this year?

    You are struggling mightily with reading comprehension haha  this is about how yards are meaningless if you’re not turning them into tds because that one loss to the dolphins we had a buttload of yards and couldn’t convert in the redzone.  Its literally proof of the opposite of what you’re trying to say 😂

     

    if McDermott secretly hates points you think he’s just gonna volunteer that to the media? lol this is insane
