    The only training camp I've ever gone to was at, Niagara University. I still have memories of JD Hill saying, "Yo" after I said Hi to him. And of OJ running on to the field at full speed. 

    Went to Niagara Univ. training camp many times as a kid. Remember Keith Lincoln dropping a pass and cussing. I remember OJ's first practice. Supposedly they were only allowed one cup of water, he had his helmet upside down while holding it. He hid one in there while he grabbed another one. They did calisthenics back in those days as most didn't do much to stay in shape during the offseason. Jack Kemp talked to me as a kid during Marine Midland Bank opening event. Good memories.

    Yeah , that scoring title will make for a great parade and will be talked about for years , especially against the great competition in our division. Which part of the eagles squad played a bigger role in their victory,,,the d with a score , 2 picks , 6 sacks , about a 45% pressure rate , controlling the Top ,limiting Kelce , holding KC to 6 points till garbage time , or,,,,hurts playing pretty well , saquan playing ok, their wr playing very well , or,, special teams?   
     

    Just saying , we could score till we started faltering in the last two playoff games ( really we got lucky a dropped pass let us beat the ravens. If we didn’t score in reg , we have never won in ot , so a defensive stand would have been required and that was very unlikely). , 
     

    Our d has been our downfall every year , so run back that o , which was beginning to be figured out , let alone give def coordinators an off season to combat “everybody eats”   You have Josh and cook with a breakout season and we saw how not having at least one other threatening star talent was stopped by KC once again.  The team we haven’t beaten in 4 tries in the playoffs ( because we gave up 32points this year) , literally got 6 points till garbage time against a legit d. They were destroyed by a good front 4 forcing errors , and they were never in the game. So run back that o all you want ( it needs dynamic talent in the wr position), but if that d isn’t drastically improved it will be the same as it always has;   D WINS CHAMPIONSHIPS, always does , and despite a defensive HC, this has been a wasted 8 years with the D ALWAYS BEING THE SUBSTANDARD PERFORMERS at crunch time , wasting away vital years of a superstar qb ( even an MVP OFFENSIVE SEASON DIDNT ALLOW THE BILLS TO SNIFF THE SUPERBOWL).  
     

         Not saying it wasn’t a good offensive production year for the bills , but that is proof above all else , it doesn’t matter how you score as many teams can score.  It’s about stopping the run, controlling the line , pressuring the qb AND SACKING HIm,and that is the proven formula to a Lombardi.  The only exception I remember was the greatest show on turf , but the had HOF qb, rb, and wr and their d still made a critical stop.

     I agree with this post. Pretty black and white, our D line has to be bigger. Our Defensive ends/corners have to contain better and be able to push the QB. We have been weak in this area for years, and it was our Achillies heel in a couple of games this year. I'm sure the management at 1 Bills Drive knows what they have to do. Unless we get a dominating defense, we will be in the same place next year. Go Bills!

    Back to the opening question. This coaching staff, IMO, is the most bullheaded, egotistical staff I've seen in a while. The dumbass fakes on 4th and short really fooled the Bucs 😳. Josh Norman being in uniform while their 1st round pick is inactive 😳. They try to run a play with time running down to end the 3rd qtr and your QB takes a sack losing field position 😳

    Agree with the dumb 4th and short fakes, fools no one. Empty backfield on the goal line is incomprehensible. run no counters at all. Remember Thurman running the counter?

  4. I think Brady was a great tactician. If it was 3rd and four he knew how to move the chains, He knew where to find the receiver that had the highest probability of being open in the short game. I have seen several times here we needed to move the chains and are throwing 35 yards downfield on a lower percentage pass. It's all about posession and mamnaging the game. That's part of what made Brady great.
