I’disagree with this - in 2020 or 2021 he was every bit as good as the WRs you mentioned. To you point, his weakness seemed to be that he didn’t like playing physical man corners and he often struggled against high end CB’s. This was very noticeable during the 2023 season. Everyone wanted to blame Brady for Diggs’ decline in production. The offensive scheme might have been a factor, but he was no longer the player he was a few years earlier

100% Diggs didn’t go to Houston because it gave it gave him the best chance to win a SB. He went there because he wanted out of Buffalo and Houston was one of the few teams willing to give up. 2nd round pick for a 31 year-old WR. I think there was a part of him that thought he’s still a WR1 and that he was going to prove it in Houston and get a big deal in 2025. Everyone else knew that he’s lost a step. The reality is that Stef hasn’t surpassed 100 yards in 21 games now. His last 100 yard game performance came on that Sunday night crap fest against NYG where the Bills won 14-9. Still after Stef retires in a few years, I feel he’s going to be one of those ex Bills players that becomes embraced by the fanbase later on

He was not injured and came back in the game right after the stinger. He just didn’t get many targets. Not sure why

The Jets are fascinating. The team has talent on paper but can’t get their act together. I think some of the “names” on the roster look much better on paper than they do in actuality and this include Rodgers. It looks like Ubrich is in way over his head

I’m pretty sure the Bills would have loved BTJ but probably not enough to make a crazy trade. Who knows though they might have inquired about him. I really like what I’ve seen from Mustafa. We’ll likely have to wait a year to see what we have in Bishop

Diggs was a great WR in Buffalo but between the drama at the end of his stint and how poorly he played against KC (and how easily he brushed it off) made me grow to dislike him. Yet I hated seeing what appears to be a long term injury. Never would have wished this on and hoping for a full recovery.

I noticed the same thing and thought that Eli played well. I’m assuming he gets the call up next and if it goes well again you have to wonder if they give him the spot taken by Zion Louge. He didn’t play well and has been a healthy scratch ever since.

With all due respect you’re making a big deal out of nothing. I’ve heard Sal talk about this on WGR and he’s always surprised how well Bills fans represent at away games. During games when the Bills are ahead fans come down to the lower seats and celebrate. He always thought this looked cool so he tries to document this moment. I have no problem with it. Besides, he does work for the team as a sideline reporter on game day

He was well liked in Denver and has an element of speed that doesn’t exist with current Bills WRs. Might be worth it to run a few speciality play to take advantage of his skills.

I don’t see any way that the Bills trade for Kupp since they’ve already landed Cooper. If they were going to spend, you have to think it would go for a DT or Safety. As good as Kupp is, the problem is that he plays the same position as one of their beat WR’s. Shakir continues to develop and probably is Josh’s most trusted WR. I think you want to find a way to get him on the field more…not less

Lost in the discourse about “sliding” is the fact that the hit by Hamler wasn’t some kind of knockout blow. He might be able to slide in the open field on scrambles but it will impossible to avoid the standard contact that comes with playing professional football.

Dalton Kincaid…. Very favorable matchup with our old fried Tyrel Dodson. Should be running a lot of play-action and misdirection

He’s a very good head coach that has greatly benefited from having Mahomes…and now Steve Spagnolo as his DC. To his credit, he’s an excellent schemer and play caller and usually gets the most out of his talent.

Classic example of a coach bluffing to try to get an advantage. DK has a low ankle sprain and will likely be out for 1-2 weeks

It might take a couple weeks but he should be fine by the postseason

Part of what Hochul said is just lore. I believe that San Antonio was never a serious contender. It seems like the cities that we knew were in contention were Toronto and Los Angeles

He’s actually right here. I remember watching Hill and Waddle smile on the bench during the 4th quarter of the Bills game. I didn’t think anything of it but can understand why fans were upset. Apparently they did they did the same thing last week and McDaniel joined along with them. Doesn’t seem to be a sense of urgency

Wasn’t the stadium supposed to go in Dunkirk?

Hopkins is certainly a rental. As far as the better receiver in 2024, I think the answer is Cooper. Both have dropped off a bit by age and bad QB play, but I think Hopkins is much further off from his peak. I think Hopkins can still play but if you’re looking more for someone who can make an impact at the trade deadline, it’s Adams or Cooper. As far as what the Bills need - it’s hands down Cooper. He’s a great route runner who can still get open vertically and make teams pay for running Cover 1. He can also seperate fast which is what was missing. Hopkins can do this as well but not as good.

He’s doing good but still has a long way to go as a WR. He needs a lot of work on his route running and think there’s some things he can still clean up with contested catches. Now that there is a legit WR like Cooper on the roster, I think it’s really going to help Coleman.

The only play I remember him making was against LAR to open the season. He caught a batted ball for an INT. He was a non-factor the rest of the time. The Bills had to bring in FA’s because he wasn’t giving them anything on the DL.

They are solid players but the never really developed into the pass rushing threat that the team really wanted.

Boogie turned out to be a horrendous draft pick. But in his draft class, he seemed to be a relatively safe pick. He was thought of as someone who could step right in with a high floor. But man, did he suck. The best thing Beane did was cut their losses. Still drafting high DE’s who couldn’t give the defense the pass rush they needed had collateral damage. It forced the Bills to roll the dice and overspend with Von Miller which ultimately hasn’t worked out.

“herky jerky”

It’s never that simple. Part of what you said is true but it’s more than just coaching. I think Mahomes has shown that despite his stats, he’s still the best QB and best player in the NFL. It’s not close. So while his stats aren’t the best, he’s made a ton of plays already this season. For all of Josh’s great numbers there have been multiple games this season where he’s played very poorly - namely Houston. To say that it’s all coaching, is oversimplifying and somewhat scapegoating the issue. I feel that you are overlooking the Kansas City who has often been overshadowed for their entire run. Not only are they coached well but they have two All Pro’s in Jones and McDuffie and some other very talent surrounding them. Classic example of excellent drafting and development. McDermott’s beaten Reid the past three seasons. Two of those wins were one possession games. Is that not a game of inches? “Won a bunch of games” Mitch’s record with Pittsburgh was 3-4
