  1. I'd say F- everything else and go get Cousins.  He wants nothing to do with DC after this season.  He got jerked around too much by Bruce Allen.  If Cousins becomes unattainable then move up to get one of the college guys.  I'd stay away from Bradford, A. Smith, etc,,,

    How do you know this?  He's never been responsible for making player personnel decisions before.  There's a big difference between being an assist and being the guy in charge.  The 2 big player personnel moves that can be attributed to him in Buffalo were the Watkins and Benjamin trades, neither of which suggests he's close to being "the smartest guy in the room".  Watkins has not only stayed healthy in LA but he's repeatedly helped insure that that 2nd rounder the Bills got for him will be at the end of the 2nd round not at the beginning.  Benjamin has a history of knee problems, was hurt when the Bills traded for him, and has been hurt most of the time he's been here.

     

    Geez, chill man.  It's my opinion based on what I've researched about him after he was hired and when I've listened to him in interviews.  Obviously I don't know this as 100% fact.  I've never met the man.    And I like Sammy, but on a very potent offense he has 34 rec. for 549 yards.  That's puts him way down the list and as you mentioned he's been relatively healthy.  For comparison, even Marquise Goodwin has 41 for 783.  It amazes me that any decent WR we have in Buffalo is constantly hurt or nursing some nagging injury.

    Not liking what I’m hearing about McD...doesn’t sound too bright...we finally get a GM that knows how to operate, and it turns out the HC is the one holding us back, if all this is true.

    Then we are in trouble...because i think Beane is the smarter of the two.

     

    Agreed.  Beane is the smartest guy in the room.  He's the guy I want making decisions on how to build this team. 

  4. After listening to an interview with Peter King,  he makes it sound like no one believes in... or wants to see BUF or TENN in the AFC playoffs.    People would rather see wild card playoff games like Balt @ LA  and KC at Jax.    

     

    I don't think that has anything to do with the TV map but i thought that was interesting in how the masses feel about Buffalo.  

  5. I gave my take on this in the WGR thread.  but for this specific game McD made the correct call.  No way was Indy driving 70 yards or whatever for a legit FG attempt.  I liked the D's chances of getting a turnover.

    If the weather was 50 degrees and sunny it's very possible McD would've gone for it.  You just can't kill him for making the call to punt in this game with those weather conditions.  It worked out.  He was smarter than the talking heads (who are all pissed off that they are wrong

  6. Sometimes you have to make a tough call in a game.  For this specific situation, punting the Colts back probably meant a 3 and out or a possible turnover.  The Colts had not turned it over all day, they were due.    I think the chances of a fumble/Int or 3 & out...probably outweighed the chances of getting stopped on 4th down, then having the Colts possibly drive to a FG with the wind. 

     

    The fact that Jeremy and Howard are furious is kind of silly.  It's like they'd rather prove their point than see a Bills W.    McD played the odds that he felt were correct for this SPECIFIC GAME..   If the weather was 50 degrees and sunny, light winds...he might've gone for it.  But the weather dictated that it was very unlikely Indy would drive 60-70 yards for a FG attempt...and/or a turnover in the Bills favor was a real definite possibility.

    Yes and it's just as credible to say that the Bills may have beaten the Jets had Peterman started that game. 

     

    I'm so tired of other posters pointing to the Chargers game as a game the Bills would have won if TT played.  The only thing that is for sure is that TT earned his spot on the bench for that game.  Great guy but he earned the demotion. 

     

    It's absurd to suggest one man would've flipped a 30 point loss into a win.  Unless the QB for the Bills had the last name of Brady it would not have mattered.  They could not stop the Chargers that day.  LA had one penalty. No turnovers. They played a near perfect game.
