That's why I think we finally can get past them if we even have to see them again
There running game is anemic and ours is formidable
I would just feel way better about it if they could get one of their other running backs going. I am super worried about trying to give Cook 20-25 runs a game through January as a strategy. And slamming Shakir into the teeth of the defense over and over. They are working hard for their yards right now and relying on some smaller guys to do it. If their offense starts to break down physically like their defense has, they are in real trouble.-

Man hearing that Beane press conference today almost sounded like Buffalo Sabres GM talking about nobody would come here because we don't have palm trees and taxes. I get that he feels like he had to explain himself but i wished he'd have just said there was nothing out there that made sense and moved on instead of the whole "It takes 2 to tango" garbage (Again I understand it was probably the truth but I hated it). Also now I'm hearing how he was trying to go after multiple top WR at the deadline. After bitching to the fans and the hosts on WGR about wanting a WR when Allen just broke records is comical to say the least, why not just sign a real WR in FA? DK was out there, George freaking Pickens, I just don't understand the refusal to upgrade it and even if things like the Cooper deal don't work out just keep trying. This guy cares more about the future than the present and as long as he isn't squandering all the picks on bums we should be fine.
It would’ve been better for Beane to have just said he liked his roster and was fine to stand pat. Just grow a pair dude. To say that he tried hard but couldn’t close - especially after ranting on the radio in the offseason about how his offensive weapons were fine - it’s just so unimpressive and weak. You suck at evaluating your own roster in the offseason AND you suck at making trades?
He is killing me.

Shaheed also probably wanted to go play in an offense he was familiar with - he's in a contract year, playing for his former OC helps him ensure he finishes strong and gets paid. As opposed to languishing in the Moore-Samuel mid receiver rotation waiting for Brady to call 1-2 deep shots per game.

The tidbit I just heard is that we were on the phone all day with Tennessee trying to get them to eat most of Calvin Ridley's base salary but we couldn't come to an agreement on the required draft capital.
They probably still remember the time they couldn't cover him in London. Might have dodged a bullet not landing him although, man, they really put themselves up against it AGAIN in 2025, once again at the trade deadline desperately needing outside WR help. I just do not understand the thinking process over at OBD, it's like they know it's a huge need but always find reasons not to prioritize it.

Beane has had two awful offseasons right after paying Allen and compressing the cap. Just facts.

Trade deadline reinforces that neither Beane or McDermott are feeling any heat from ownership to get over the hump and into the SB.
I don't know if that's more an indictment of the GM/HC or the owner. Either way, status quo reigns at OBD.
It may actually be worse than that - they are so year to year dependent financially in this market that they cannot afford to mortgage any real future assets.-

We're officially the new Packers (when the had Rodgers in his prime)...... All world QB with the GM refusing to surround him with any super talented WRs and leaving the entire offense up to him.
The only difference is the Packers have won Super Bowls.....we haven't.
We are a Kincaid injury away from virtually no receiving production......
Ted Thompson 2.0 this 1000%.
The greatest trick the Beanester ever pulled was convincing the world his nickname is “Big Baller.”

I genuinely can't believe Beane didn't make a single move.
They are a supremely stubborn group.-

Hey you all wanted a WR. I want to hear no complaining if they add Deebo Samuel.
They're finally gonna hit that end-around play they've been effing up all season.

Yea I am concerned that we are not built to get it done in that scenario. It is so hard in those situations if you can't threaten deep or outside. Because the opposition will let you have the short passes in the middle knowing that the chances are time runs out on you or rushes you into a mistake.
Of course there is a chance we can find a deep seam to Kincaid or Shakir can catch a short one and make magic but you are kind of limited to one of those things happening and if they don't you're toast.
One more matchup advantage (to acquire or to emerge) on offense would get it done though. As horrible as it is to even utter, I realized the other day that even Steph Diggs right now would probably put this offense over the top.-

Not "just". It's old news by now 😃
Well fine. But he would’ve been a great replacement for Hoecht.-

Ravens just got the guy I wanted to replace Hoecht.

Dre’mont Jones on the Titans, he was a monster for them today playing in a very similar role. On a one year $10M deal, not sure how they’d be able to structure it. But he would be a viable replacement.
Welp - Ravens just got him for a 5th. Would’ve been perfect. -

I agree with this, but I would change "The defense was coached well" to "The defense was called well".
Because the problems we've seen with preparation under Babich have in no way whatsoever diminished.
I would’ve agreed with you but for Bishop’s play last night - he was in the exact right spot every single time last night which tells me he was perfectly prepared. Most of that is on him but some of it is definitely on Babich. -

I think you have to look at the strength and training program at some point. It’s too many.

we just cant have nice things... this injury really dampens the win... going to be very hard to replace him.
We have Joshua Patrick Allen.God I hate the “why can’t we have nice things?” take.

I think it's the opposite. Chris Grier has no reason to trade away assets since it's his job on the line. With a yes man put in his place they can go into fire sale mode. We'll see.
Correct and that's why I think he's out today by "mutual agreement" - he was told to start trading away his own key acquisitions and he said, if you're doing that, we might as well part ways now.

Like against a healthy Ravens defense who was up multiple scores in the 4th quarter?
Yes, like then. Other than one single quarter in week 1, the passing game hasn’t been able to impose its will. At some point again probably as soon as this Sunday, it’s going to have to be able to do so.-

They will eventually HAVE TO pass to win a game. Probably this Sunday when the Chiefs go up by two scores to start the game. Let’s see if they can turn on the octane when they need to - I’m skeptical.

I agree with this. I love a dominant running game, such as we have, assuming you have the horses to execute (and we do). I'd much rather be run first team than a team that over relies on the pass. The defending world champions offer an instructive example. Saquon is of course their bread and butter. Earlier this got AJB's nose out of joint and Smith too aired his displeasure with the number of targets they were getting. The OC tried to cater to their needs but soon and firmly reverted to the norm because it simply wasn't working to optimal advantage.
But the Eagles nevertheless invested in not one but two game breaking receivers and they are not trading a disgruntled AJB. I wonder why.
It's not just that both the run and passing games are, ideally, complementary, each making the other better. It's that having a passing attack that can on its own be a credible menace to put up points on a defence is a good, and likely necessary thing to have if you want to compete for a championship. Passing cannot simply be only supportive of and an adjunct to the run. That's what we seem to have now.
In the Steve Smith clip he is asked how important having a downfield threat was to the Bills O. He said it was absolutely imperative. I tend to agree.
Anyway, not to worry, I'm pretty sure we are going to land Shaheen next week. Bills will overpay because they will need to.
It's fine to be run-first, but outside of one quarter of one game, they haven't even shown that they CAN pass if they HAVE TO. Whatever, we'll find out in a few days about that.

If KC is seeing this too, their plan will be to try to score early and force the Bills out of their strengths on both offense and defense.

Coleman is having a MUCH better second season statistically than Adams did.
That's how slow Adams career started.
And that is with a pinpoint, HoF passer in Aaron Rodgers after having caught over 230 passes for 3,000+ yards and 38 TD's at Fresno State.
As I said when they drafted Coleman.........he's got that physical profile but it won't be easy to get there.
I think Adams had one TD total, his second year. There was talk he would be cut.

Trade Deadline has come and gone

I am not saying KC will take it I’m just talking about the Bills’ formula. But yes you’re generally in a good spot for January if your line is mauling people and you can run the ball effectively even against stacked boxes. Would just really like it if Ray Davis or Ty would get going.
