I think he works at Tops

YES! I thought about this last week when the 2004 game versus Pittsburgh’s B-Team resurfaced. Where was the 7th wildcard spot then? Or in 2014 when the defense was on a roll?

Reporters in Miami actually said the same thing about not having the “it” factor.

If you ask Miami fans, Chan is refusing to call plays to Tua’s stengths

The difference is the readiness of the QB’s. Allen was an inexperienced project QB from a small college football program who never faced top-notch competition. Tua comes from the biggest college football program in the world and was thought of to be “pro ready.” The ceiling for Tua is nowhere near as high as Josh’s was. Bad comparison

For the first time ever as a Bills fan in January, I'm not even thinking about the offseason

Yeah I think he definitely will get better. I don't think he'll ever be the kind of QB Miami fans expect

Everyone one thinks their struggling QB will break out like Josh Allen

Agreed and it's pretty cool to get that kinds of respect as an opponent

I like these questions and feel it’s an interesting idea. IMO I’m not sure whether Reich was really ready to be a HC in 2015. He had one year experience as an OC in San Diego under Mike McCoy who likely had a big say in the offense/playcalling. That team finished 9-7. I think Reich learned a lot about being a HC from working Doug Pederson in Philly. So the Reich you got in 2015 was probably different from the one Indy hired in 2018. Still it’s hard to say because of the QB position. We have no idea what Reich/Whaley would do at QB. I’m guessing they probably don’t bring in Tyrod who Rex advocated for. Does Reich try to resurrect EJ Manuel, roll with Matt Cassell, or try to sign or draft another QB? If it’s the former, I see Reich lasting about as long as Rex did. Also we have no clue who would be the QB under the Reich-led Bills

Tim Graham Is very close to the Kelly family. I’m not 100% certain but pretty sure that he said Elway took a flier on drafting Chad with the last pick in the draft as a favor to Jim Kelly. Of course he ends up getting arrested and released after working his way up to QB2. I thought that Graham said the Bills were discouraged from brining Chad to the Bills because he needed to be away from Buffalo where he often found himself in trouble

He also seems like the innovative offensive coordinator to unlock the true downfield passing potential of Tua, that Miami has been looking for! He worked wonders with Kyle Orton, Blake Bortles and Gardiner Minshew

That has got to be Marrone’s last HC opportunity right?

Also after seeing him in SF, would NE even want him? Or would they try to find a better option at QB for the future? Normally I wouldn’t be surprised to see him brought it as a stop-gap while they figure out the QB position, but his contract will make it harder

I never understood the appeal of a Frank Zappa. Terrible music. I guess you have to do a bunch of psychedelic drugs to enjoy.

I will say it’s kind of a catchy song and probably helps market the team to younger audience. So in that respect it’s good.

He wasn’t a terrible coach and was easily the best coach of The Drought (not saying much). I’d say he was pretty mediocre. The biggest thing that continues to plague his success is his conservative nature. We saw this in Buffalo when he elected to punt close to FG range. You can argue he cost JAX a super bowl appearance

Same with me, but I was on the fence about Marrone. There was a narrative in the media that his game management and conservative nature was killing the team. Looking back it’s hard to dispute that. Still a winning record at 9-7, even though it meant losing to a 2-12 Raider team that killed their chance at the playoffs, seemed like a huge accomplishment. I thought we had traded up when they hired Rex a few days later🙄🙄🙄

Makes sense. I don’t really listen to rap and only know of the artists who crossed over. I did see that Benny was a guest on One Bills Live a few weeks back but had no idea who he was. I agree with this take.

What is his biggest hit? Like the song that most people know? I don’t really follow modern hip-hop

Can someone explain who Benny is? Is he a local rapper? Or one that’s known on a national scale?

LOL yes but I’m sure Marv Levy would interesting as well

Maybe it’s just the 1990’s NBA fan in me, it I rest enjoyed listening to Marv Levy call NFL games

John Brown IS ready and activated. He’s on the COVID list as he was in close contact with TJ Yeldon

What did he clarify?
