Coach Tuesday

What are you basing that on? There are myriad ways the Browns could free up more cash if they wanted to, such as selling a minority share of their team which has soared in value relative to what they bought it for. They are cheap.

Kind of a d1ck move to cut a team captain this far into the offseason.

Bills tried hard to trade for him earlier in the offseason per Jordan Schultz.

Brady and Babich are both super smart guys. TBD on their ceilings as coaches but they are definitely bright.

It’s one thing to say Josh could put in more work, fine, but to blame his work ethic for the Bills not having a ring? Bananas.

That’s insane.

This is an actual grievance??

Is this regular season only?

The amazing … inner confidence … it must require not only to give credence to your “gut feeling” about something you have no control over whatsoever - but also to publicize it as a point of news for strangers. Anyhow I hope your stomach is correct about the 2025 Bills.

IIRC Tuel was a Marrone satellite state in his cold war against Whaley and the EJ Manuel pick...

I think he literally was…

This is pretty cool. The Bills have actually become a pretty fun and hip brand between Josh and the Bills Mafia shenanigans. If they don’t eff this up with weird drama on the show they can continue to ride the wave to becoming the lower-key, hipper and more accessible version of America’s Team. And if they can finally win the title to cap a Hallmark Season in the stadium’s final season it would all be a legendary sports story that the entire country would feel they got to participate in. Just saying.

Can tell which of you all sends “You up?” texts to your ex…

This is why you maximize Allen’s window. NFL careers are fleeting.

Could see him going to NE and getting the band back together with Diggs.

Something about this rubs me the wrong way…

“We felt that defense was a bigger and more immediate need heading into the draft and with the way the board fell, we also felt the value wasn’t there at receiver when we were picking. But we’re always looking to make our team better and we’ll be open to adding more talent at the receiver position before training camp.” - what Beane should’ve said.

Has been their MO for a long time. I wish they trusted their own ability to coach and develop a bit more - I think the focus on Boy Scouts has cost them some playmakers.

Yup. It's pretty clear they attributed last season's outcome to the following issues, probably in this order: 1. Lack of team speed on defense 2. Inability to affect the other team's passing game 3. Insufficient player development/strength and conditioning 4. Special teams They do not believe offense is/was the problem.

It's almost as though Beane is mad at the media for "making him" trade for Cooper mid-season, whereas he really believes they didn't need to panic and ditch their original third rounder. I could be wrong but that is the vibe I'm starting to get. And he's just the type who'd be stubborn enough to NOT make another in-season trade for a WR during 2025 just to prove his point.

Beane’s comments prove one thing: they do not feel any real urgency to upgrade the skill positions on offense. The upcoming season will put that approach on trial.

I’ll call you out for accusing him of crusading. It’s an ironic accusation given that your recent iteration of being a poster seems to be the anti-fan cynic - you exist mainly to complain about other fans of late.

You showing up in thread after thread just to whine about the thread is old and annoying.

He’s exactly right. And saying “let me finish!” when nobody was interrupting him. Beane sounded shook not confident.

I mean for example, hypothetically of course, if I'm Joe Brady and I just invested hundreds of hours grinding film on WR prospects and meeting with them and advocating for them - all for nothing, because hey, idiots, we're set at WR don't you know - maybe I'd rather have known that in advance so I could spend more time with my family? Few things in life are worse than having your bosses waste your time.
