If he's a quality wr (your own words) wouldn't it be reasonab
13 hours ago, Straight Hucklebuck said:Classic embellishment to try and exaggerate your point and minimize my point.
I said this quite clearly: he's a quality WR who will give you 600-900 yards in a #3 type role, but he's older, and a 1-year deal indicates the Bills think that as well. He's good for a specific role on the team this year. He's not some huge difference maker.
You are contradicting yourself.

Yes, he’s aging. The rest is not correct.
He didn’t play more than expected for New Orleans... they signed him to a 2/$24M deal. I don’t know many teams dropping $12M AAV on a guy they don’t expect to play that much? He may have played a different role then expected but the amount he played wasn’t anywhere near unexpected for his salary. This is the first 1 year deal that Sanders has signed... ever... he has not been bouncing around on 1 year deals up to this point.
Also, why are you showing me league leading receivers? Sanders isn’t a #1 WR for us and never has been a #1 WR for anyone... that’s just a nonsensical illustration. You’re telling me that Emmanuel Sanders doesn’t move the needle as a #2/3 option because he’s getting older and older players aren’t leading receivers? It’s a good thing we’re not relying on him to be our leading receiver...
I suppose we move on from Cole Beasley too because he’s going to be 32... forget that good season he had last year... he’s over 30... the likelihood that he leads the league in receiving is decreasing... we don’t want him!
Damn, that was a polite tongue lashing. People you have to do your homework or you will be called out. This is an example of it. Nice post!

If we drop $15 mil on an old TE instead of on a premium pass rusher I will lose my $h&t because we can already pass but we can’t rush the friggin passer !!!
I agree. Only get Ertz if he's on the cheap. I can see a team overpaying for him but not Beanie and the Bills. Maybe he will take a discount to come to the Bills. That sounds weird saying it. Oh it felt so good though...

I don't think so. It's obvious we lacked a pass rush. Epanesa and Oliver might step it up a notch. I think Bills in a win now mode will add another pass rusher via free agency or the draft.

Dude....
He had injury issues and bad QB play on a bad team last season. Even taking last year into account, we're talking about a guy who just turned 30, was a Pro Bowler from 2017-2019, a First Team All Pro in 2018, and averages 760 yards and 8 TD's a season.
You might not be a fan and he might not be Travis Kelce. But saying he "blows" is *way* off.
I agree he doesn't blow but I feel his best days are behind him. He has lots of tread on the tires, is 30 years old and injury prone. I'm just not jumping for joy or holding my breath hoping to get him. He would be an upgrade to the Bills TE position. I'm not opposed to the move if the price is right.

Have to think we're done at WR until the draft.
Diggs - Beasley - Davis - Sanders - Hodgins - Draft pick with speed and KR/PR ability
I think you are right. We have other needs that should take priority. Pass rusher, rb, and cb come to mind.

Breshad Perriman on a minimum deal. Your speed guy. A ton of other WR's that could be had on a year prove it deal if not getting what they hoped for - Galloway, Fuller, Samuel, JuJu,
Diggs/Sanders/Beasley/Davis (Kumerow, Hodgins, Gentry, Williams fighting for a spot or two).
Without getting into salary and cap numbers (which is impossible) I would really like Fuller and Galloway in a Bills uniform.

I mean my opinion is just another opinion, but I think if a bruiser was the answer then they drafted a pretty good bruiser in Moss and that didn't kick start things. I thought they needed speed last year and I still think they need speed.
Did you say Aaron Jones?

Agreed. Although Star's value is hard to see on a stat sheet, I do think his absence made it clear how important he is to the defense. I do think the Bills want to get better and younger at his position and they should be trying to find his replacement...but for this year we definitely want him.
I agree. We really missed him in the middle last year. Star isn't worth the money the Bills are paying him but he does add value to our suspect D line and run D.

If you want to make a point just spit it out, captain suspense.
The numbers spell it out. In Thomas Davis' years 2,3 and 4 he averaged nearly 95% of Carolina's defensive snaps. Milano obviously nowhere near that. In 6 of his 8 seasons Luke Kuechly played over 900 snaps. Milano hasn't done that once in 4. He literally played the equivalent of 5 regular season games worth of snaps in 2020. Availability is an issue with Milano. Fact.
Availability and his ability to stay on the field is a huge concern. I cannot pretend it isn't. I'm hoping he can stay healthy and play most of the season(s). With that said, I like the risk and the signing. Milano is elite when he's on the field. He makes everyone much better, makes big plays, and is a leader out there. I believe he gives the Bills the best chance to make another super bowl run. To boot, I think we signed him for a little home town discount.

Also, other teams will be in the mix like the Browns, Ravens, Titans, Dolphins, and Indy. Bills will not have an easy path to the super bowl. I've never been so excited about an upcoming season.

I think the Bucs Franchising Godwin is about the silliest move I've ever heard...especially this season.
Not a top 5 guy...these are the things that blow up salaries across the league.
I hear you. At this point, I'm not second guessing their front office moves. They brought home the Lombardi Trophy.

From his ending up in Arizona, it looks like Watt, who is coming off receiving most of his $100M contract, found the Bills offer not high enough.
Seems fairly likely the Bills offer was not all that big. Offering Dupree the same money will probably earn us a chuckle.
Maube I am in the minority. I'm glad the Bills didn't over pay for Watt.

WE NEED DL BEEF MORE THAN A PASS RUSH.
Bills were 6th in the NFL on QB Pressures last season. Out interior DL was pushed around and we frequently lost in the trenches.
Not saying we can’t upgrade the pass rush, but we don’t have a ton of money to spend, and we MUST shore up the interior line with some size or we won’t see much change in our defense next year.
It makes everyone’s jobs easier when you have space eaters taking on multiple blockers.
Solid post. Star should help in regards.
12 hours ago, BuffaloRebound said:Go get Fletcher Cox. He was still dominant last year and has no injury history. 2 years $33m left on his contract. Gotta imagine he doesn’t wanna waste his last couple good years in a rebuild situation.
I would love to see Fletcher Cox in a Bills uniform. Instant upgrade to our defense. Also, seems like a good motivator and leader who can help out our younger players.

"Useless" is wild exaggeration. No, they were not useless. It's fair enough to say that they didn't play at the level they'd hoped, though. How much of that was down to the lack of beef after Lotulelei opted out? And how much early in the season due to the fact that they were new and there was no offseason?
Jerry Hughes is anything but expendable. He had a very good season.
There's no reason whatsoever to think this will be Star's last season. He could very very easily last another two after that, and even that's assuming they don't extend him at that point. No way to know, really. Could go either way depending on many factors.
Yes, we certainly need a pass rusher, no question.
Fair enough that they weren't the top 5 D we'd seen the past couple of years. The last half of the season they were pretty close, but yeah, not quite there.
I'd agree with most of this. But I think part of the reason KC couldn't get to Brady was that his inclination was to throw quickly, inside the design of the play, where Allen's natural bent is to be tempted to extend the play and look longer.
No disputing that. Brady has always been difficult to sack even though he's not mobile. He is beyond smart, knows how to read a defense, and gets the ball out quick. Quite different to Allen's skill set Josh will take more sack due to extending plays with his legs. However, you have to give KC a lot of credit. They harassed Allen all game. Took away the edges and had him running for his life. I'm sure this will be used as a blueprint to beat the Bills. Similarly, the Bucs game plan vs the Chiefs. Coaches and front offices have a lot to digest in this off season.
Fyi, always been a fan of your posts.

Replace “would” with “could”.
We will never know, of course. How do things turn out if the two throws to KC WR’s that bounce off their face masks are actually CAUGHT for TD’s.
Swings in momentum are HUGE factors in games. We can’t “know” anything. Saying you know for sure seems like not knowing anything about football. I get the KC OLine (with injuries) was a problem, but a break here and there and it could look like a totally different game.
Of course we can't know for sure. However, I disagree with your premise. The Chiefs are a better team. A poor match up for the Bills because we have no one to stop Kelce and a defense that lacks a consistent pass rush and isn't great at stoping the run. On offense the Bills are too one dimensional. They waxed the Bills 2xs and that wasn't coincidental. A break here or there wouldn't have made a difference. In fact, one could argue the Bills did get the breaks. Hill dropped a 3rd down pass deep in Bills territory and the Chiefs muffed a punt and gave thw Bills the ball inside the 5 yard line. Come on brother. Love the Bills, but they weren't going to win that game unless Mahomes breaks his leg. Hopefully, the Bills will be even hungrier, draft well, make a few key pick ups, and players develop more. The Bills future looks bright but KC is the cream of the crop. Buffalo, Clev, Pitts, Balt, Indy, Tenn are trying to dethrone KC. Next year is going to be fun.

Did anyone see the game yesterday and still doubt the need for a running game? TB forced KC into having to pass every down since they couldn't/didn't run the ball. When KC needed to make a stop, TB would get chunks of yardage on runs. This matters. You can't put all the pressure on one player to be perfect on every down. KC looked like what we looked like 2 weeks ago. Yes there were more factors involved, but when you have zero run game, you are at a disadvantage. Hopefully Beane addresses the running game in the draft because nobody fears it as it is now.
I agree. You have to have a decent run game by not a great one. One that keeps the defense honest. Without that you become too easy to defend. KC was able to tee off on a mobile Allen. Yet, they generated little pass rush on Brady who can't move.

I just posted this on another thread but it fits here to. I ran the numbers for Mahomes and Allen during this seasons playoff runs and they're interesting:
QB playoff stats:
Josh Allen
Passing: 77 - 120 - 817 yards - 5 TD's - 1 INT - 64% completion
Rushing: 25 - 145 - 1 TD
Total Yards = 962
Total TD's = 6
Total TO's = 1
Playoff Record = 2 - 1
Patric Mahomes
Passing: 76 - 1117 - 850 yards - 4 TD's - 2 INT - 65% completion
Rushing: 13 - 52 yards - 1 TD
Total Yards = 902
Total TD's = 5
Total TO's = 2
Playoff Record = 2 - 1
Seems to me this answers the question of this thread, no? Or am I missing something in posting these stats? Is it to simplistic?
Let's post a complete career statistic not just one year. Who has a super bowl ring? Allen had a great year. Can't take that away from him. I hope he gets better and becomes the undisputed best QB in the league!. However, let's pause the brakes a little. Many QBs have had good or great stretches and haven't panned out. Kap, Cousins, RG3, Wentz, Cam, Jimmy G, etc... Allen wasn't exactly great in any of this year's playoff games. That is somewhat worrisome. I'm thrilled for the future but I'm not ready to pronounce him as a savior. Mahomes has the ring to flaunt it. He has already earned his title as a franchise QB. Allen still has to proceed and progress forward imho.

Na not with chiefs dbs allowed to just dry hump us all over the field 🤣 they could get real creative against us pass rush wise because they were just single covering everyone across the board. As much as im sick of brady winning those flags felt like poetic justice last night ...im sure 9ers fans would agree since they lost the super bowl because the chiefs were allowed to neutralize the strength of their team with offensive holding lol
The chiefs were in their own version of the 'omg we have to start Brian winters' scenario 🤣 it is not the same chiefs team we faced and the rules were enforced in a completely different way. The bucs hardly blitzed at all last night they were getting home with 4. The chiefs blitzed us a lot because their secondary didn't need help...its two completely different games that can't be compared in the way were trying to. Its surreal honestly listening to this Bowles is a genius commentary...it was a Leslie frazier-esque soft zone game plan he was just playing against scrubs on the oline ...Im not saying we wouldve won i think the bucs offense wouldve given us fits but I think our offensive line wouldve held up considerably better and we wouldve provided a much more entertaining game
Since when have the Bills beat Brady and Gronk in a meaningful game? Ponder that one.
3 hours ago, ScottLaw said:Come on man. They played the Chiefs twice and got beaten soundly both times. They had every opportunity to make that their game plan.
Agree 100%. The Chiefs are and were a better team than us. Our defense is exploitable and we can't run the ball. The Chiefs will beat us 8.5 games out of 10 with our current rosters.

We can always re-write history, I guess. If last night's game was a close one, sure, we could speculate that the Bills may have had a win.
But it wasn't. It was a complete manhandling. Josh in the second half of the Chiefs game was facing serial jailbreaks, just like Mahomes (I don't but that Mahomes is inferior at going through progressions under duress) and the result was similar.
The Bills would have had no answer for Devon White, JPP, and Shaq Barrett---- just like the Chiefs. You think Feliciano, Williams, etc got slapped around by the Chiefs front 7?? Imagine how the Bucs would have their way with them...
Anyone who thinks the Bills would have beaten the Bucs simply don't know football and or they are blinded by the "Bills homerism."

Why is Yledon still on the team? He Seems pretty useless and replaceable. We can and should do better.

He sure seems like a nice cheap option for us.

And without Milano and playing overall not good, we were in the game 13-10 at halftime.
They come out at halftime, run a 13 play 87 yard drive in 8 minutes bc run D couldn't stop a nose bleed. That pretty much demoralized us yet we still got to 23-17.....still couldn't stop their ground game.
By no means will this be easy. But I like our chances.
Miami picked off Mahomes 3 times. Make them throw 40 times against our Secondary. I like that group's chances vs any air attack even Mahomes. And I think our front can get to him.
But we absolutely cannot let them run on us. At all. Their run game has stunk most of the season and CEH has a high ankle sprain. Who knows how ready he'll be.
If we score 30, we will win. If you take out the Hail Murray play we allowed 30 points only 3 times this year, vs Seattle the Rams and Tennessee when everyone was hurt.
30 points. Dial it up Daboll.
It's really hard to predict how many points it will take. Too many unknown variables. Imho, the key to us winning is not giving up the big plays and playing solid red zone defense. Which happens to be one of our strengths. The Chiefs will score and make some big plays. However, we need to force them to field goals not tds. I'm really not overly focused on stopping their run game. The Chiefs can and will attack you on all levels. Their offense is just that dynamic and talented.
Secondly, is protecting Allen. Last game the Chiefs harassed Allen all game. I'd say it was one of his worse games of the season. Along that line, the Bills have to be semi successful running. This will keep the Chiefs from teeing off on Allen.
Thirdly, I think the turnover battle will be key. If we turnover over the ball we have little chance of winning.
Fourth, win the 3rd down battle. Seems like we have been giving up some big 3rd and long plays. Nothing deflates a team more than this. Obviously, executing 3rd downs bold well to winning.
Lastly, it's about how the Bills play and attack the game plan. We can't play conservative or scared. Play smart but not passive. Game 6 vs the Chiefs was playing scared. Go down or win playing to win!
Just my 2 cents.

Being scared has nothing to do with it. It's about talent and execution mixed in with a little luck. Imho, both of those teams are better than us. Also, they have proven track records which brought home super rings and the Lombardi Trophy. Our chances seem slim but nevertheless there is hope. Stranger and bigger upsets have happened. Go Bills!

Bills sign Emmanuel Sanders
in The Stadium Wall Archives
Posted
So are WR3s unimportant to a football team? Can't they be an important piece to help teams win games? In a team game, strong components help teams win games. A good to great WR3 can really help out an offense. I think Sanders can be that guy for the Bills. I think it's shallow and micro to mitigate the importance of a WR3.
