The fact that Josh knew the mailroom guys name is incredible. Loved the video

It’s an interesting idea but the sense I get is that it’s a lot harder of a move than it sounds. You would have think Buffalo, LAR, or Baltimore would have tried this already. I’m guessing it’s not an option. The Bills org still loves Tre and I believe he took a photo on the field after the Baltimore loss. But I think they are also realistic about his ability and I can’t see them bringing him back unless is on the PS

If the O is set, why did McDermott say they needed needed to add impact players on offense and defense? He probably wasn’t talking about QB, OL, or RB… he meant at WR. The Bills know they need to upgrade the WR room, which is why they traded away a 3rd round pick for Cooper. They know Mack Hollins can only do so much as their primary outside WR. Like I said, I see them bringing back Hollins, adding a WR like Hollywood Brown and drafting a WR as well. That’s exactly what they need at WR and the Bills know it

Cooper won’t be coming back - they’ll need 2 WR’s - hopefully 1 in free agency and the other through the draft

This can’t be understated enough. Bills re-signed Tre in 2020 believing they had a foundational piece to their defense for the next five seasons. They got about 1.5 years out of that deal. No one wants to hear this but thanks to coaching and the play of vets like Hyde and Poyer, Bills were able to get by with below average cornerbacks. But this was quite a drop off from Tre’s play prior to 2021. Also Tre’s struggle to recover created a massive need at CB ultimately forcing Buffalo to reach for Kaiir Elam - one of Beane’s biggest draft blunders

That’s not the same scenario but…go on

There’s no guarantee Crosby will be traded. He seemed to be fine with Pete Carroll as head coach. Who knows where Garrett will end but are speculating Philadelphia. If the Bills want in on Garrett, they’ll have a shot.

You can’t give the award to 4 players. They all played good neither one really stuck out above the others. Maybe Sweat? I understand why Hurts got the award

That’s not a strength of the Bills corners. It isn’t what they do well. Maybe if you’re a WR5. I don’t really agree with this at all - give me some examples

If you’re going to be critical of this regime, it’s lack of high-end talent. Hell McDermott came right out and said it at the end of his press conference. Every GM misses on draft picks. As good as Brett Veach is, take a look at his history. So even though missing on Elam and Basham hurt the team badly, it does happen. The problem with Beane isn’t that he misses very often. He’s drafted a lot of solid players, a handful of above average players, and maybe even a few approaching high-end (Cook, Brown, Benford). He just never hit home runs. And in these big games you need your best players to step up. Meanwhile one of those first round hopeful “home runs” dropped a pass to end the Bills season.

If this isn’t a tweet about talent on Philly vs. Buffalo, I don’t know what is:

Did the bot tell him to select Jaelin Raeger over Justin Jefferson 🤣 You’re correct about Roseman’s reputation though. A reminder that success doesn’t come overnight

Sure I just feel like a lot of fans here are underselling the talent on Philly’s defense and overstating the talent on Buffalo and instead pretending like it’s all on coaching. Philly is stronger on all 11 positions on defense

Yeah the reason he fell was because there were concerns about whether he could play as a traditional boundary corner. I’m just pretty down on the Coleman pick after what I saw toward the end of the season. Really hope he surprises us. To say that the coaching and roster sucks is patently wrong. As you pointed out they’ve been very successful. Where I think you can criticize is finding high end talent at a few key positions - specially DL and WR. I did think this roster lacked talent overall but to win 13 games was quite the accomplishment

Cooper plays NCB. Are you going to take Taron Johnson off the field? If you want to lament the Coleman pick after year 1…. T’Vondre Sweat or Ladd McConkey seem to have been the missed opportunities

The reason Mahomes was skittish was because there were 4 monsters pressuring him and an athletic secondary who could cover with 7. There was no confusion

It’s because Kincaid is bad blocker and can’t play on the line. He’s a liability in the run game, offers next to nothing pass blocking, and is not good on screens. He is athletic and a good route runner but Bills have struggled to put him in enough good matchups. They almost have to use him as a slot WR - same position as the best receiver on the team. That’s why he doesn’t get the snaps when Knox is healthy. He just doesn’t seem to fit in the Bills offense

This. There’s the pride factor and him wanting to justify a 1st pick that he’s gotten some heat over. I’m not sure they could even get a 3rd for him. Plus it’s not like Kincaid has been a disaster overall. He’s just not the difference maker they expected and his return is nowhere near the investment in his pick. The crazy thing is Buffalo would have been so much better selecting Sam LaPorta or Michael Mayer.

He wrong on most but though He’s right… the Bills didn’t play soft zone coverage. It was a lot of man in the first half. Nearly 41% for the game which is way higher than usual

This wasn’t the issue against Kansas City.

He looked worse than he did in the Super Bowl versus Tampa. The common equation was a lot of pressure - especially up the middle

It’s the same defensive philosophy. Philly just had better talent to pull it off. Also, let’s not forget that Kansas City and Mahomes probably played their worst game in years..maybe their worst game ever. It was a rarity

They ran M2M defense on nearly 41% of the plays and it was way less effective than their zone. They stay in man longer than they should because Elam is not good at zone

The OP is so wrong in his assessment it’s not even funny
