Bills defense: - Surrendered more points to the Chiefs than any other team all season. - Had to face the 17th ranked offense by yards, 15th ranked offense by points Bills offense: - Scored more points against the Chiefs than any other team to that point (other than Bills part 1 and week 17 with all backups). - Scored the most points in a game vs KC in Arrowhead since October 10, 2022 (for any team). - Had to face the 9th ranked defense by yards, 4th ranked defense by points Bills defense wasn't very good in the regular season, and nobody really expected them to be (it was supposed to be a reload year where younger players got some playing time and we ate dead cap).

Mahomes has had a real dip in his passing stats the past 2 seasons with Hill gone and Kelce slowing down. I’m curious to see how his career continues to go because he’s been pretty pedestrian for 2 seasons now. Rice is a great WR but will probably miss 6 games and who knows after the ACL. FWIW, Allen’s best passing seasons were with a top-5 WR in Diggs. So I think having a great receiver is important for high volume passing.

Sounds like he will be a player coach. Maybe he could play in a “break glass in case of emergency” sense.

I think it will be a very high scoring affair (like 34-30 type game). Both offenses are almost the exact same team from last season and shouldn’t have too much rust.

I really had hopes for Forrest. How bad do you have to be to not beat out Hamlin? Why can’t we find a bottom of the roster Safety that can beat out Hamlin!? I think Hamlin is considerably slower now than he was in 2022. He stays on the team because he knows the system and doesn’t blow assignments. That somewhat makes up for his complete lack of athleticism.

I think the plan is to score 50 points

Usually happens around FA, so it’s a treat to have it so late in the offseason.

I’d say there was a clear winner at #2 QB and it was Trubisky.

It is very curious and if Beane gave an answer in an interview I’d be interested in hearing it. It does take 2 to tango though. Maybe Dolac felt he had a better chance of cracking the Rams’ 53 man roster. He got to pick his destination as a FA.

I love the Bills and I miss football, but I'm not sure how much more of this I can watch.

I'm thinking they want Allen - Trubs on the 53 man roster, and they are deciding if Buechele or White should stick to the PS.

Doesn't look like we'll be seeing any starters (unless Bishop ends up being a starter, which I don't think he will as it stands).

Why the heck are we trying to put Bishop at Free Safety anyway? He’s a strong safety and should be either replacing Rapp or Rapp’s backup. What happened to that Forrest guy we signed?

It would appear that Samuel and Moore are on shaky ground. I would be fine with Gabe Davis as long as his role is way smaller than last time. He should primarily be a blocker and have a couple receptions per game. Dorsey’s option route offense was a disaster with Davis. Maybe things are easier with Brady.

- Hamlin somehow got even slower. He might get cut. - Was hoping for more from E. Moore. - Idk who that punter is, but he did great. - Shavers might make some noise this year in spot duty. Good competition to keep Coleman from getting complacent.

Bengals might need to save face and have something to tell the fans. Bosa could be a “see we replaced him” move.

Rousseau and a 2nd? Bosa and a first? Doubt the Bengals will trade him to a top AFC team.

I guess we can agree to disagree. There is no way to know if another player could have scored in those red zone chances. I think Allen could have scored many of them.

YPC I’ll give you, but a lot of those TDs could have been scored by somebody else. In past seasons it was Allen. This most recent season they gave the ball to Cook in the red zone.

Feels slightly rich for a RB that only plays 50% of the snaps, but maybe they will work on his pass blocking.

Cook is not far better than the 8th best RB. That’s about where he is. I can’t see any argument to have him higher than 5th (and I wouldn’t put him there). There is an argument he’s as low as 12th (that is where PFF ranks him). The only category he was high in this past season was TDs, and it was an outlier season. I see the tiers like this: Henry Barkley —— Robinson Gibbs —— Jacobs Irving Taylor McCaffrey (bump up a tier if healthy) —— Cook Williams Walker Conner Achane Mixon I also think Jeanty will be really good and immediately slot into tier 2 or 3.

No, I don’t agree. I think the difference between the 25th best RB and the 8th best RB is a handful of points. It’s why they aren’t paid very well (so GMs agree with me).

I like Cook a lot, but the Bills had a top-5 offensive line last year, and the MVP quarterback. It's hard to imagine a better situation for a RB.

I might be a hater, but I don’t think the Bills offensive output would be that different with a combo of Ty Johnson and Ray Davis. It would definitely take a step back, but I’m not sure it would actually result in a different team record.

Seemed like a favorable edit. Hopefully that means those pesky script writers have decided it’s finally the Bills’ year to win it all.
