That checks all the box then! 😆 1) With an ascending program, Diggs might not see a reason to become a malcontent. 2) I believe Vrabel will be able to handle Diggs... he's already gotten past the pink substance video distraction. 3) Diggs is smart enough to know he's in the final stages of his career and will behave in order to maximize his earnings. I'm not saying McDermott is not throttling down the offense but Burrows, Justin Jefferson and Ja'Marr Chase are a MUCH more logical explanation. I was hoping the bye week self-scouting would result in a more creative offense but I haven't seen it so I'm not holding my breath on Brady getting it together.

But you have enough interest to complain on this forum. Did it make you feel better? 😆 How can you think of restaurants at a time like this? 😊 I thought we were all sick of watching there Bills "playing with their food." I'm not sure if you guys are right. I'm not sensing the same thing. I'm not saying that they're gonna play well but I'm not sensing that the team is treating this like just another week. Realistically Pegula isn't gonna fire McBeane because of 1) the goodwill they've accumulated for turning the team into a perennial contender 2) the opening of the new stadium. The most we can hope for is a change in the OC and DC... that we can Buddy Ryan our way into a Super Bowl win with McDermott playing the part of a meek-mannered Ditka. It's not only alcoholics who have that saying. 🤣

LAC - $17.0M Good post but Diggs is not still a superstar in this league. Except for a few posters here, it's not talked about much but it bears mention again... the ability of this team to manage personalities. When it comes to high maintenance players who cause distractions and drama, it's said that a star player will be tolerated while a roster filler will be cut. As some here like to say, the juice has to be worth the squeeze but on every NFL team there's an aspect of tolerating talented headaches in the name of keeping that talent rostered. Without really knowing, my gut feeling is that the leadership on the Bills, whether GM, Head Coach, player or non-player simply isn't strong enough to manage personalities like Diggs. When you watch some Head Coaches, you can see how respected they are, how secure they are, and how their leadership translates into players falling in line for them when one player steps out of line. Again I could be wrong but I don't get that from the Bills.

The problem with the offense is not the run-pass ratio. It's that they're below average when they throw the ball.

Thanks for doing the research. I always appreciate when posters put some actual work into a post. I do feel sorry for the Raiders. They're trying to rebuild and in a league where the majority of games are one score or less, the minus 19 is a significant handicap.

This was already pointed out to Augie and he's already responded... he was just kidding but still thinks it's bad optics. Both posts are on page 2. I know that one... yes, I'm old.

On the one hand, it would suck if that was the last ditch effort to salvage the pick. On the other hand, what if the position change really worked out and he became a Shannon Sharpe type player?

This reminds me of when the Giants (Gettelman) gave Kelvin Benjamin his final lifeline… the opportunity to play tight end. Of course Benjamin had already posted a 1000 yard season. He was actually a gifted player with a broken noggin.

You sure seem to be living up to your handle. Are you gonna be okay?

In your profile pic, you're not wearing any glasses.

I'm sure there's a wide range of expectations for Sanders. Do you have any?

I knew that sounded familiar...

To those of you who were offended: "People say "Jesus H. Christ" because the "H" is a misinterpretation of a Greek abbreviation for Jesus's name, IHC (Iota-Eta-Sigma), which was used as a christogram. Those who didn't recognize the Greek letter eta (Η) likely assumed it was a middle initial for a middle name, leading to the assumption that it stood for "Jesus H. Christ". The phrase is now used more as an expletive or exclamation, where the "H" adds emphasis and improves the rhythm." Your sense of humor is appreciated. 👍

Jesus H Christ?

Wait… how do you know his middle initial??? 😊

Positivity? Optimism? I understand those who don’t think he’s gonna do well, but I don’t understand those who wish him ill.

Everyone's lauding this piece and it's absolutely accurate but it's also what posters here have been saying all season long so there's nothing new here. The only thing different now is that more than ever before, media and fans who were extremely reluctant to publicly criticize Josh are now a bit more emboldened to do so... that of the many problems with the offense, one is that Josh is not playing up to his own standards. This will be the 3rd or 4th time I say this... Josh isn't near the top of the list of reasons why the Bills offense is playing poorly but he is on the list. So to respected posters like yourself @dave mcbride and @HappyDays, are you saying that Josh is playing as he usually does? Is Josh completely blameless for the offensive problems?

29 years old... something something... 2017 combine... something something... Hmmm was he injured dare I say... in practice? Also has the Thigh Doctor weighed in on this yet?

Out of curiosity I'd love to see his weight chart.

It wasn't long ago that he and Rasul Douglas were one of the best cornerback pairs in the league.

Wears a blue collared shirt… punches the clock before each shift… believes in the credo that if you’re early you’re on time and if you’re on time you’re late…

That can’t be argued. However this last loss feels like a tipping point in terms of public confidence in the direction of the team.

That might be your feelings but most Bills fans I know were still optimistic at that point. Today feels much more pessimistic than then. I remember you posting this before and I understand your argument. My point is that there was an optimism then that no longer exists today.

The fear has always been that 13 seconds was our best chance and that we've not progressed since then. Like I said, I really hope I'm wrong and that the Bills circle the wagons and show us that they can rise up another level or two. Go Bills!

I agree with you guys. I actually like McDaniel... he doesn't fit the prototype of the Dan Campbells but I'm glad that a guy like he can find a niche in the NFL. One of the interesting thing about McDaniel is that he seems like a really intelligent guy but he speaks really poorly... just proof that those two things don't always go hand in hand. Also, the capris are ridiculous.
