Jets are a bit of a wild card here. We have to see how the off-season plays out but if they can improve their OL then they could be tough if they keep Rodgers healthy. Their D is pretty good. They just got worn out at the end of the year being on the field too much and getting no help from the offense. Rodgers would change that.

If you listen to some of the old Giants players from the 80's Parcells was the same way. He would scream and yell at them when he felt it was necessary.

In my meaningless opinion I would have made the change after 13 seconds. That was a fire able offense IMHO. The only thing that matters is Terry's patience. If I had to guess I would say McDermott gets 2024 and 2025. But Terry is going to want a good team going into the new stadium in 2026 so if 2025 is another disappointment then that is my guess for a coaching change going into the new stadium.

Fans are going to drop their season tickets and just buy individual game tickets so they can avoid the PSL fee. So many Jets and Giants fans did this, and I would imagine many Bills fans will do the same thing.

5/8/77 - Grateful Dead. Cornell. Considered one of the best concerts they ever did. Give the S/F a listen. https://www.bing.com/ck/a?!&&p=65b7bfead9fa8580JmltdHM9MTcwODA0MTYwMCZpZ3VpZD0zOTQzMmYxOC04MGQzLTY5ZDItMjk5My0zZGRhODE1ZjY4NDEmaW5zaWQ9NTI4Ng&ptn=3&ver=2&hsh=3&fclid=39432f18-80d3-69d2-2993-3dda815f6841&psq=5%2f8%2f77&u=a1aHR0cHM6Ly9hcmNoaXZlLm9yZy9kZXRhaWxzL2dkNzctMDUtMDguc2JkLmhpY2tzLjQ5ODIuc2Jlb2suc2huZg&ntb=1

If he is its close. Nobody can take anything away from the Chiefs. Five straight trips to the AFCCG, four Super Bowls in five years and winning 3 of them. The Chiefs are just a better team than the Bills with better coaching. One player can't win a Super Bowl by himself. If you look at Allen's playoff stats, he certainly has played well enough to win a championship. But the rest of team more specifically the defense hasn't.

Maybe. I still have doubts they win at Baltimore. McDermott's playoff road record 0-4. Jax, Hou, KC (2).

Is he? Yes, he is great and is considered the best QB in the game. Big reason for that is his supporting cast steps up in big moments which is a big reason why they have 3 Super Bowl wins. If Allen got that same support the Bills probably have a Super Bowl win or two. Then there is Reid>>>>>>>>>>>>>>McDermott.

We all know the problem isn't Josh. Its coaching and the rest of the team doesn't perform well in big moments Too many of our key players are no-shows in big games. Allen is one of the best QB's in the game, but he can't win a Super Bowl by himself. Football is still the ultimate team sport.

The Jets asked fans for a 10% deposit on their PSL fee a year before MetLife opened. If the Bills do the same, then fans will start paying their PSL fee in 2025 before the stadium opens in 2026.

He will probably become more of a pocket passer in this case. I can't see him being an effective runner as he gets older. He will lose a step just like Elway did. Different era but Elway was a smaller version of Josh. Gun for an arm. could run and scramble although back then designed runs for QB's weren't a thing like they are today. John towards the end of his career was just a pocket passer and let TD doing all of the running.

I would say with Allen the Bills are a good bet to make the playoffs and get to the divisional round. But once they are one of the 8 teams left playing its becoming more obvious that team around Allen needs to be better. The defense disappoints and to many star players are no-shows in these moments.

Saw this over at the Buffalo Range board. Byron Murphy, DT, 6’1” 307lbs – Texas Murphy is an uber-talented Defensive Lineman who can play zero technique to five technique at a high level. In 2023 as a junior Murphy recorded 13 tackles, 5 assists while making 19 stops. As a pass rusher, he produced an incredible 40 total pressures, which included 30 QB hurries, 4 QB hits, and 6 sacks on the year. This is elite for an interior Defensive Lineman. Exhibits explosive first-step quickness and disrupts plays behind the line of scrimmage. Murphy's collegiate performance and skill set suggest he possesses the potential to become an outstanding pro. Beane / McDermott are undoubtably drooling over the possibility of drafting him – yet he could be drafted as high as 12-14, so will be unlikely to be an option for the Bills. If he makes it to pick 23-25, look for Beane to be leaping out of his chair.

I think he was, but I honestly don't remember when in FA he was signed. I know it wasn't within the first couple of days of FA.

With their cap situation I doubt the Bills are major players in FA. Beane needs to have a great draft this year. We can say that every year, but they do need to get younger on defense and if they are going to improve for 2024 it will be from the draft picks since being active in FA will be tough to do.

It comes down to the same thing every time. WINNING. If he wins the players will follow him 100%. If not, then the players will tune him out. Happens with every coach in every sport. I do think he will do a good job with them and win a lot of games.

Also, the close calls against the Bucs and Giants. I know we won those games but in some ways, it felt like a loss.

Is Sam Darnold under contract with 49ers next year. If not, then he would be a decent backup. I know Allen would like that as he and Darnold are good friends.

Good point. Stroud looks like the real deal and Ryans did a great job coaching them. They also have a great player on the defensive side of the ball in Will Anderson Jr to build that side of the ball around. I expect the Texans to be a force in the AFC going forward. The one thing about the players coming out of college today is Harbaugh should be able to relate to them since he was coaching at Michigan all of those years. The Chargers may have to retool some. I do think the Chiefs will probably win the division in 2024 but give Harbaugh some time and I see them competing with the Chiefs sooner than later.

I don't know about that. Harbaugh took the 49ers to the Super Bowl and then won a National Championship at Michigan. He may be a jerk personality wise, but the guy knows how to coach. The Chargers have a talented roster and Herbert is still a young guy. Give him a year or two and I would bet the Chargers will be one of the top teams competing for a Super Bowl. At least the Chiefs will have some competition for the AFCW.

In the next year or two I would say Burrow. Bengals have a very good team and they have proven they can beat KC in the playoffs. A few years from now it will be Herbert. Harbaugh knows how to win. He will do a good job there. As for Allen, I don't see it happening with McDermott.
