I'm not saying that. I guess I'm asking why would you have confidence in the organization to get it right now under much more stringent circumstances? It also appears the AFC east foes have clearly closed the gap. Teams like Cinci, KC, and the Jags appear to be going in a forward projection while the Bills are going...

Did you see him play last year? He was very good.

I don't disagree with this. The real question is did Beane miss his opportunity? More specifically, Allen is six years in with the Bills. His rookie contract is over and now that big salary handicaps Beane's hands. He's pretty much admitted that. The time to solidify the oline was years ago. The time to get Allen explosive weapons was years ago. Beane has not gotten it done. Continually, the organization focused on the defense without much success. They failed on their Oline picks. I don't think it's a stretch to say the Bills organization has relied too much on Allen to get it done with insufficient weapons and protection. How likely is Beane and the Bills organization to get it right now with limited resources? That's a really tough ask. Lastly, I'd like to add that the coaching staff is suspect. The last two years of playoff failure clearly fails on the coaches, game planning, and schemes. I'm really surprised that they haven't made any significant changes. It's pretty disappointing

If he's there at 27 I think you have to take him. He would be the BPA by a huge margin. He could step right in and be a difference maker. He is on the level of Barkley. The Bills would be foolish to pass on his talent.

Let them both go.

Agree but you have to dismantle the coaching staff too. Fraizer defense can't get it done. Plain and simple. Dorsey is in over his head. McD can't take the team past a 1 win playoff game. Beane has made colossal errors in his draft picks. Handicapped the team for years to come. This organization needs to be cleansed. Do you want a 9-8 team next year that gives you false hope. False hope for years. Or break it down and rebuild to win it all? The way the Bills are approaching this season is merely to placate the fans. Fools gold. They will fall short again.

Exactly! I'll add the Chiefs got lucky, Mahomes is overrated because he has a great Oline, Reid wasn't that good because he sucked in Philly for years, McD will be the next Andy Reid, and Beane is a genius and I trust his judgement. The Bills will go 14-3 and win the Super Bowl next year. Allen will be the MVP. Rousseau will be the Defensive player of the year and McD will be coach of the year. How did I do?

You said it right there. The Chiefs exploited the Eagle defense. You have to give the Chiefs coaching credit for play calling recognizing the Eagles defense. Come on man be real. You are trying to minimize the Chiefs coaching staff. It was great play calling and execution.

"I absolutely agree we need to be more like KC...not saying copy what they do, but we need to inject a massive heaping of better creativity, better schemes, better situational awareness, and better use of personnel on both sides of the ball." How likely is that going to happen?

You think Beane and Dorsey would have taken advantage of the Eagles mistakes and scheme? I highly doubt it. Reid and Bienemy absolutely deserve credit. Stop with the hate.

I thought Daboll used him wisely. He got the ball sparingly and did mostly well with his limited touches. He proved last year he's not an everyday player. It's time to move on for McKenzie.

Absolutely! The Chiefs are going to be a dynasty team. They have everything the Pats had and more. Reid is an offensive genius. Mahomes is the next Tom Brady. GM Veech runs circles around Beane. Arguable he's the best GM in the league. There is no stopping this team. They traded away Hill and won with a suspect young defense and sub par WRs and RBs. The Mahomes and Allen comparasions should stop now. It's not fair to Mahomes who is wearing two rings. The Chiefs win and know how to win! The Bills simply don't when it comes playoff time. Next year will be more of the same.

Had to laugh when listening to Scott Farell. He stated the 12% rate increase was a lot for a team that doesn't win in the playoffs.

Because he's taking up a roster spot. You have to upgrade the position. He brings little to the table. Dorsey didnt utilize his skill set. Could be if the rookies are better players. Were you happy with the oline performance?

Pat Mahomes and Andy Reid. Allen and McD. Do the math...

Agree with Diggs. I've stated it repeatedly that the offense had no identity. It was hard to see a complete offensive solid game plan from Dorsey. Often the team ran the ball with success to abandon it later. Happen more often then it should of. Some experts like Sims and Cosell have criticized the offense. Saying the play calling didn't have cohesiveness. Felt like it was single play after single play with no congruent plan. Relying too much on Allen and backyard football. I think Diggs hints at a lot of this. Dorsey is not a strength of the team. He's a work in progress and last year he severely hurt the team. That was very clear in the Miami and Cinci game. The Bills should have gone after a much more experienced OC. (Josh shouldn't be calling the shots) The team was in win now mode. The favorites to win it all. With that in mind, you don't hire a rookie with no experience. He was in over his head. This organization continues to make critical errors. It looks like Dorsey and Fraizer are here to stay another year. I think it's a good bet to say the errors continue. Can anyone have confidence in these two coaches? Listen to Farrell on the radio last night. Sadly, he summed it up pretty well. He was talking to Mike Carver his side kick from Buffalo. Told him he feels bad for him. He wants Buffalo to win to end Carver's pain. Farrell stated the Bills are like the Denver Nuggets. A good team that never wins anything. I couldn't help but not in agreement. Carver high was pretty quiet. Nothing more to say. The truth hurts sometimes. I

Very well stated. I couldn't agree more. 👍👍👍👍👍 Just because he's a former player doesn't give him anymore credibility in my eyes. Unless, he had some inside information and input from current players and coaches. I highly doubt it.

Lazzard is too expensive. McKenzie should be gone. Save the little money and find someone else. He's easily replaceable. The Bills have to make some key acquisitions in the WR area. Guys that are very serviceable and can step in and contribute. Allen should be able to make them better.

Does this apply to a 34 year old Von Miller? Or is it a different injury and recovery?

I agree for the most part. However, there are a some instances where a team can do really well with a manageable QB. Someone who makes a few big plays and takes care of the ball. We can all think of those teams and QBs. One of those teams beat the Bills in the 90s Super Bowl. The game has changed and it's much more difficult to win that way. Look at the 49ers as an example. The Jets really look to have a lot of pieces in place. Their secondary might be the best in the league. Their Dline is very good. Offensively, a healthy Hall will make them more dynamic and dangerous. Garrett Wilson is very good. With the exception of the QB position (huge exception), I'd seriously consider the Jets roster better or equal to the Bills. In short, the Bills have dominated the AFC east for years. Six straight playoff appearances to go with it. The Dolphins and the Jets have made big moves and very good draft choices. Couple that will Beane misses and the gap has severely closed. No doubt the Dolphin and Jet players feel like they have a legitimate chance to dethrone the Bills. I doubt they truly believed that prior to last season.

Williams would be a nice signing. I wouldn't hate that.

Did I say something you think is untrue or wildly inaccurate? John, I think it's pretty clear that the Jets are a team on the rise. Bunch of young impact guys that look very good. The just had two guys get the ROY award on both sides of the ball. Their weak link was at QB. It wasn't on defense and they lost Brice Hall early in the season. He looked dynamic and explosive. Unlike anything the Bills have. Clearly don't like the comment. That's fine. What's clear is the Jets have a lot of young stars. A very good defense. A team with lots of potential. They played the Bills very tough last year. In fact, they pushed the Bills around in the trenches. The Bills appear to be a descending team. A team that needs to restock, retool, tweek, and hope for a lot of luck. I think it's reasonable to say the Bills, Dolphins, Pats and Jets (pending a QB) will fight it out.

Depends on how you see things. How many times did Cook and Hines catch the ball? Was there a rhythm to the offense? Did one play set up the next play? Or did it seem like every play was somewhat independent? Did they have troubles in the red zone? Did you see the Cinci playoff game? I'd agrue he wasn't very good. If we are measuring someone from a terrible standard then I guess your statement is right. I'd argue the Bills won mostly because of Allen not Dorsey or his play calling. He was learning on the job. Dorsey absolutely contributed to the Bills disappointing season. 13 wins is great but it's not really about that. The Bills will likely win lots of regular season games with Allen. At this point, it's about winning playoff games and going to the Super Bowl. It's about winning it all. Fans shouldn't settle for anything less when you supposedly have a top 5 QB.

There are so good free agents the Bills should consider to upgrade the Wrs. Chark Lazzard Campbell Meyers I like Chark and Campell for the price. Lazzard and Meyers might be too pricey. I do think Meyers would be very good with Allen throwing hom the ball.

If the Jets sign Carr it instantly makes them a seriously contender for the division. That defense is legit. Don't forget Brice Hall is coming back. The Bills will have their hands full with the Jets. Carr isn't great but he won't have to be on the Jets. Make a few plays and don't turn over the ball.
