    Cosell's Comments on the Bills

    Thanks for sharing although as others have pointed out, most of us probably agree. 

     

    I stopped listening to WGR so I don't hear him much anymore, but I remember him on One Bills Live just after the 2024 draft. Regarding Coleman, the Bills were talking about how he'd be great on contested catches. Cosell made a comment (I'm sure I don't remember the numbers correctly, but you'll get the idea) that a 40% success rate on contested catches is excellent but a 70% success rate when the catch isn't contested is pretty bad. Therefore, taking Coleman over someone who has shown the ability to separate was a bad move. Excellent point that I hadn't thought of in quite that way before.

    he wasn't high on Coleman. Felt going into the draft we should move up for BTJ, but where we were, we should have taken someone like McConkey.   Seems he was right.

    He is probably the objective analyst out there. 

     

    It's all going to come down to this question in the playoffs:

     

    Will the coaching by and large just stay out of Allen's way and let him do his thing, or are they going to do that thing where they overthink every decision and become obsessed with trying to control every outcome of the game?

    My question is will Mcdermott's butt pucker up like has in the playoffs, or will he just coach like he normally does.  He just gets too tight and you can see it in his face and his decisions.

    One of the best throws in NFL history

    … occurred during this game. And I just want to make sure that it doesn’t go by the wayside.

     

    The difficulty of this throw is hard to quantify. It shouldn’t even be possible. The defenders this ball had to go past… the accuracy… the evasiveness… and to hit Shakir right dead set in the numbers.  Incredible.

     

     

    Absolute sick throw

    oh we're going to paste these guys. 

     

    Everything is falling into place this year. Everything. 

     

    Playoffs are like mid-September/October inter-divisional games. Likely no Mahomes and no Burrow. Maybe Jackson, but it looks doubtful. Cakewalk. 

     

    Imagine saying the road is: Pittsburgh (LOL), Houston (cute story, but who takes them seriously as a SB contender?), Broncos (another cute story)

    Even toss in New England, who already won their Super Bowl several weeks ago here and would be trying to be the first team to win 2 rings in one season. 

     

    I didn't mention Jacksonville Barbie and their dozens of rabid fans. Basically our road to the Super Bowl is beating the AFC South teams and maybe Denver. 

     

    I mean LET'S GO! 

     

    Now Burrow is seemingly pushing to get Zach Taylor finally fired (good luck) or get himself out of there and likely to an NFC team (few AFC landing spots for QB) taking one top QB out of the AFC mix if that happens. 

     

    New stadium.

     

    Hallmark movie. 

     

    Allen being an all time great. 

     

    The chance for guys from past teams like Tre White, Poyer, Jordan Phillips, Gabe Davis and others I probably forgot to get a ring as part of this reunion tour. 

     

    It simply cannot not happen this year. 

     

     

     

    Hell I'm pumped...let's go!

    Offense is fine, as always, despite what the vocal contingent of crusaders continually post here.

     

    We will go as far as the defense allows, which has been what has let us down in basically all of our elimination games.

    The offense is not fine.  We could do a lot more with even just one bonefied real threat at WR.

     

    But yes, the defense is still missing quality talent.

    Behind a paywall, but an interesting read.  His basic take is that the Bills receiver room, while still not great, has evolved into something serviceable.  Davis, Shakir and Shavers have settled in as the prime trio, with Shavers being the Hollins from 2024.  Palmer should be the 4th when healthy, and then the issue is who is the 5th, Cooks or Coleman.  Buscaglia feels Cooks brings better complementary skills than Coleman, so Coleman most likely to sit if Bills go with the usual five receivers.

     

    Room will need overhaul in 2026, but this group might be good enough for the Bills to be a force in playoffs.

    Going into the playoffs it should be...

     

    Shakir

    Shavers

    Davis

    Cooks

    Palmer

    Hardman   As the top 6.

     

    Hartman will be our KO returner, and has speed to get down the field.

    Look this WR room isn't good.  The top 2 spots MUST be upgraded and with 1 of them a guy a DC has to at least respect. 

     

    I say trade our 2026 1st for a WR. I dont trust Branes evaluation of WR's at all.  Trade the dang pick and get someone established.

     

    Now who to trade for... I don't know.  We need to see how the season finishes, then see who is disgruntled, and who might be able to be traded for.

    This can be the passing staple

    This could be your bread and butter... 

     

    When a football coach says bread and butter they mean their staple... What you do best... Execute in your sleep 

     

    I learned from a very good coach once that you perfect what you do well.. so you can execute it in any situation... Rather than trying to do stuff you're not great at 

     

    The other team could know what you're doing but if you execute it to perfection still won't be able to stop it 

     

    The trap pass... And we have a terrific running game and great tight ends

     

    We opened the game versus Cincinnati with this... It's going to pay dividends 

     

    You can't sell out on the run if they'll hit you with this... If you sit back on this James Cook will go for 7 years a carry 

     

    Then instead of crossface you start going up the seam...

     

    You can run this concept out of multiple formations and it will pay dividends

     

    This is One singular concept that can bring the bills One step higher and I'm glad to see it

    1. It dang well should be our #1 Play. We have THREE TE's that can run this so no way teams can guess who is getting it.

    2.  Make sure we take it out of NE's playbook this Sunday

    Only one of the current top 4 QB's has beaten the other three in the same season.

    How do you put Burrow and Jackson in the top 4 when they've missed multiple games this season? Are you going by legacy rankings or perception going into the season? That means squat today.

     

    Drake Maye is statistically a top 4 QB. Maye's team beat Allen's this year. 

    So, if it makes you feel better to think Josh is top dog, ok, but don't forget he also lost to Tua, Penix, and the Houston backup.

    They are considered the current top 4 in the NFL.  That said, that QB from NE is rising pretty fast...so we need to add his name to the list.
