I've seen some other draft nerds not like Troy Franklin either.

NFL is proving time after time what a disgusting organization they are.
The initial belief from the NFL is that Disney, Fox Corporation, and Warner Bros. Discovery, the parent companies of ESPN, Fox, and TNT Sports, are indeed well within their rights to this streaming service agreement. However, the NFL is still looking for potential loopholes to stop the service, according to Ourand.
It’s certainly interesting to see the NFL pushing back so hard against this venture. The NFL’s decision to give Amazon Prime exclusive rights to future playoff games after giving Peacock a playoff game this year further proves that they see streaming services as the future of broadcasting.

That’s why we should bite the bullet and just draft a back up quarterback it would be cheaper
Fine with me. I'm curious where Penix ends up. I feel like he is going to fall.
-
Unless he plans on playing for league minimum, I see no reason to spend more than that on a back up QB. No back up QB out there will make the season worthwhile fighting for.
-
Pre draft I expected more of a Kelce like player. I think he is more Mark Andrews than Kelce. He played way more in line than I expected. I kind of thought he would play more snaps as an outside WR than he did.

Most like QB coach and passing game coordinator. Works for me. I wanted a fresh face as QB coach.

Surprised you don’t like Walker more. He feels like Thomas Jr (lite) to me.
im a huge fan of Thomas Jr. and Franklin although I wish he had a little more weight to him. Really like Mitchell and Rice too. Also a huge fan of Tahj Washington in mid-late rounds
Walker lost a LOT of money this past weekend. His catch ability got exposed greatly at the Senior Bowl. The dude has no idea how to get two hands on a ball. I wouldn't touch Tez at all this entire draft.

We have the 1 seed if McDermott didn't let the Eagles, NE, and Denver walk down and score after Josh gives the go ahead TD.
Blaming the QB when he's consistently the best player on the field is convenient and lazy.
How did we take the lead in NE, maybe a Poyer fumble?!?! The offense got the ball first in OT and what happened? The Bills offense had EIGHT possessions where they got ZERO points vs Den. Ya, lets blame the defense.

Woulda, coulda, shoulda...
If we're analyzing that way--imagine if Bass was his old reliable self and didn't shank kicks. Or imagine if receivers didn't have so many drops ...and the list goes on.
Every kicker misses kicks. Every WR drops passes. Pretty sure the team with the most drops is in the super bowl.
Allen leads the league in turnovers since he became a regular starter.

Pittsburgh game = 0 interceptions.
Chiefs game = 0 interceptions.
Regular season = 18 interceptions over 17 games.
Yeah, he had a bad day the first game of the season against the Jets with 3 interceptions. Don't let that bias your perception of the other games.
We don't even play the playoff games if the defense doesn't get this team into the playoffs.
We have the number one seed and week 18 "bye" if Allen doesn't throw 3 picks vs Jets, 2 vs Den, and doesn't throw a pick on first play of game vs NE. How healthy would we have been if guys didn't have to play for 2 weeks?

The nostalgia for old Bills appears again. It's sway on the fan is powerful. It causes fans not to think critically. It has the kavorka.
No one who has been HC twice is going to come back as a position coach--even as a favor.
Besides, Josh is just fine. Strategy and play calling in the early season were the culprits of 6-6. McDermott andJoe Brady fixed that.
Get the heck out of here with that crap, seriously just go away. The guy led the league in turnovers on continuous BONEHEAD plays. People need to stop blaming everyone else but the guy literally giving the ball to the other team.

I think fraiser takes alot of unnecessary flack. I know he was super frustrating at times, but the outcome this year was no different without him
I dont think we make the playoffs if Frazier is the DC. The D was more aggressive this year which lead to turnovers that won us games, when the offense left the D for dead.

This is one of the biggest loads of horse crap projections I’ve read here-including after playoff losses! Please elaborate on how it’s clear as day he doesn’t fear or respect them?
im not sure why your venom is going after the one guy who has kept the Bills in as many games BECAUSE of his style of play
When you go out and complete the same mistake game after game, you are not listening to your coach, therefore not respecting him.
How many times did Allen throw an INT with a 15 yard out route against the sideline? How many times did he need to be told to read the defense before throwing the ball?
It's not secret how harsh Daboll was with Allen. We seen it on TV. Allen goes back to the bench now, grabs his IPad, and Brady will console him. Allen is a child at heart, he will admit it himself. You need to be stern with a child for it to sink in.

Wouldn't Palmer be that guy ? Josh usually works with him every off season & Palmer in no uncertain terms tells him just exactly where 7 how he's screwing up as far as his mechanics and all so he already has that but yes because of the vacancy they could use a good QB coach .
So once again why not Frank ?
He doesnt work with Palmer anymore.

I want Frank Reich no where near Josh Allen.
Posts like this just show people are living in the past. Have you watched a hard knocks in the last 10 years? Very few coaches are getting in guys faces and screaming at them. The ones that do (Gregggggggg) are laughed at. Why? It’s a different world now and these guys are professionals. Josh has had 4 straight 4000 yard seasons and 40 total Tds. But he need a hard nosed coach? Cmon
You can be hard nosed and demand respect without screaming. It's clear as day, Josh doesn't fear or respect Dorsey and Brady like he did Daboll. Daboll wouldn't let Josh just do whatever he wanted out there.
-
With the Bills not learning and just giving Josh what he wants in the OC coach again, they need to find a QB coach that is going to get into Josh's brain. A guy that has been around for a while, and isn't looking to baby Allen.
One guy I'm wondering if he will do it as a "favor", is Frank Reich. He obviously doesn't need a job, but wondering if he would come back here to try and get us over the hump.
These last two hires at QB coach, Dorsey and Brady, have been young guys that were looking to eventually be head coaches. We don't need to go in that direction again.

I'm sure some may have forgotten, but we have Al Holcomb on staff, who was the Carolina LB coach during the Luke Kuechly, Thomas Davis, & Shaq Thompson era.

Explain Nate Hackett? Or Pat Shurmur having two chances to be a head coach? Or Rob Ryan? Or Andy Reid’s ex heroin son being a d line coach? Or garbage Brian Schottmeir? Or a million other examples.
im not saying it’s all racism but it isn’t just the best guys getting the job. There is a guy in high school or college who is a million times better than Hackett but will never get a chance because is dad wasn’t a nfl coach or he’s not friends with the right people.
Morris just got another chance after failing in Tampa.
Romeo Crennel got multiple jobs.
Tony Dungy got multiple jobs.
Herm Edwards got multiple jobs.
Todd Bowles got multiple jobs.
I could go on and on with African American coaches that got multiple chances too.

Why? Explain it. Sounds like a young guy getting an opportunity to get a job.
He has a 0% chance of getting the job. We are "doing him a solid" by giving him interview experience I guess. I just hate the Rooney rule. I think qualified candidates will find their ways to jobs by their resume, not because of the color of their skin.

Tough to fault Brady when there were 3-4 huge drops and both Diggs and Shakir were open on the missed TD play.
Also tough to argue against the turnaround after he was made OC.
There was no turn around on the offense with him as coach. The offense struggled just as much, if not more. There were games where they had turnover luck that greatly benefited them.
Really the only difference was Allen running more, which is that something you really want for 17 games in a season?
Go back and read about all the issues Brady had in Carolina, he sounds awfully familiar.
That quote about, is exactly what we seen with the Bills. The Bills added more motion, but it was literally just what was described above. Look at the motion that Miami runs, vs the motion that Brady ran.
Read some of these responses from Carolina fans. This is the same things that we seen in his short time here. It's really concerning.
Joe Brady is/was the guy who ran the same 5 plays on Madden against the A.I. and impressed his friends.
Then he went online and everyone else knew how to stop those plays.
How many times are we going to see the WR screen?
This is so true. He was also terrible at making adjustments, our 3rd quarter scoring being a prime example. Overall, I think he was decent at play & scheme design, but could never put it into action for longer than a few drives
The second halfs were terrible under Brady. 1st KC game, 14 in 1st/6 in 2nd. LA game, 14 in 1st/10 in 2nd. 7 points in 2nd half vs NE. 10 points in 2nd half vs Pitt. 7 points in 2nd half vs KC.
His scheme was pretty chaotic and bad overall. There were multiple plays where receivers end up in the same spot once the route develops. Even his short yardage play is terrible.
I honestly can't say what I think his strength was overall because nothing about him was amazing. As I mentioned in another post, his play designs rely on having physically dominant talent and once you get to the NFL--everyone is kind of on a level playing field.
Didn't we have WR running into each other vs KC. Being physically dominant sounds familiar with the Dallas game.
Often looked like the opponents knew what play was coming. Seemed like play calling tended not to be balanced it would be all screens or no screens, All runs or no runs etc. There were things that felt like strengths from a fans perspective that we almost didn’t use at all at times like short routes to CMC and runs with Cam. No offensive player has really shown improvement while the defensive players seem to work on their weaknesses. Maybe it’s our lack of understanding of the complexity but from my perspective it’s hard to find something that it appears he excelled at. The main defense is just that our offensive players are not good.
This hits home big time.

Did you really just base your argument on kind words spoken at his retirement?
I lived in NOLA and watched almost every TIgers game between 2017 and 2022. Ensminger was interim OC after Les Myles was fired, TE's coach in 2017, and was OC for the 2018 season. That offense, with Burrow, was not explosive. Burrow threw for 2800+ yds and 16 TDs. Because the passing game was so unimpressive, Ogeron went to Sean Payton and inquired about someone who could help implement a pro-style offense, and he recommended Joe Brady, who was widely regarded in the area as the reason Burrow threw for 5600+ yds and 60 TDs. Granted, he was throwing to Justin Jefferson and J'Marr Chase with Clyde Edwards-Helaire and Leonard Fournette in the backfield, and Randy Moss's son at TE, but he had the same weapons in 2018.
Read this article and it sounds awfully familiar to what we seen in Buffalo in the few weeks.
A lot of people forget that he wasn't the offensive coordinator at LSU, he was the passing game coordinator and wide receivers coach, thus meaning he has never had full control of an offense before. Looking back on it, you could argue that those star players that he had at LSU were the sole reason he earned an opportunity with Rhule and the Panthers in the first place. Sometimes players make a coach look better than he really is.

I'm trying to find the tweet, but they weren't very impressed with his ability to work the middle of the field.
