Looking for 2 tickets to the game in Atlanta, PM me please if you have for sale.

Also out of town and love this information. I hit Bar Bill, Nine-Eleven and Elmos this weekend. Nine-Eleven was the only one I hadn't done before and ended up being my favorite.

Why cut Daryl Williams, he's been great at Guard. They should cut Jon Feliciano and restructure Williams.
Just to be clear, I'm not recommending they cut Williams. I was moreso listing some of the bigger cap savings they could achieve. I especially would want to keep Williams if Mitch does in fact retire. Other savings include Klein and Feliciano. https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/buffalo-bills/cap/ is the best resource for this that I am aware of. Personally I'm all for on-line depth and would prefer to keep Feliciano but also understand cap savings are a premium and most will likely prefer that he is cut or restructured if willing.

No need to cut Mitch Morse. He’s playing really well. That would create a huge hole that doesn’t need to happen. D. Williams I’d ask to maybe restructure but definitely is a release candidate. Beasley I’d put in the same boat as Williams. Love to have him back but he’ll need to be extended or restructure to save some money. Also a long term extension with Diggs could free up some space as well.
Thanks for bringing up a Diggs extension, I forgot about how that could free up some much needed cap space for us.
Realizing you don't want to sacrifice too much future leverage, I'd personally like to trade for a top end pass rusher, not sure how the bills get one otherwise. I realize that game was ours for the taking but look at the impacts Von Miller and Melvin Ingram have had.

Like most bills fans, I can barely comprehend what happened last night and the complete choke from a play calling perspective with 13 seconds left in the game to allow KC the chance to sneak back into the game and ultimately win in the end will haunt me for a long time. In an effort to deflect in a different direction, what does everyone expect for the Offseason? For purposes of this conversation I'm speaking strictly player moves and not factoring in coaching changes.
The Bills have $9.5 million in projected cap space for 2022 and their biggest ways to save cap space include cutting center Mitch Morse ($7.5m), Daryl Williams ($5.3m), and Cole Beasley ($6m). Key free agents include Emmanuel Sanders, Mario Addison, Jerry Hughes, Levi Wallace, Isaiah Mckenzie, Mitchell Trubiski, and Harrison Philips (Bates is a restricted free agent so I assume he will be back).
Obviously we can't resign everyone with such a limited amount of cap space and will have limited chances for key upgrades as well. So what are the biggest needs? I'd say d-line (defensive end primarily), and then potentially cornerback, wide reciever, and o-line (center/guard but Spencer Brown isn't surefire from my perspective either) depending on who they cut and bring back. I suspect Harrison Phillips will be back which is why I did not list defensive tackle and hope Hughes is back on a team friendly one-year deal (and that we see huge progression from our rookie ends) but who knows.
Honestly, our needs look a lot like last year's but with less cap space to resign and pick up free agents... I get what all the Bills players are saying when they mention the team will look different next year.

I could be wrong, but I also think we essentially clinch the #2 spot even if the Titans beat the Packers as long as the Steelers lose and the Browns beat the Jets. Steelers and Browns play week 17 so winner of that game would be 12-4 and Titans don't pass us in a 3 way tie at 12-4. Only way that wouldn't work is in the miniscule chance that the Browns and Steelers tie.
This is correct.
-
If we win next week, steelers lose next week and Browns win, titans outcome is irrelevant as well. We win any 3 way tie, which would occur if titans won week 17 and we lost given steelers play the Browns.

Wow. This thread has a lot of revisionist history. Moulds was at best a good receiver not great. Watkins was at best an average over hyped over paid receiver not even good. Price was average. Johnson was good not great.
Reed was great. HOF GREAT.
Lofton was great.
Watkins showed flashes and had stretches but never excelled to the level expected. Price had the one year and was average. Disagree on Moulds though, give him Aaron Rodgers or another top flight QB and he would of been HOF bound.

This is a 100% crock of ****. As someone who as been as low as 4% for competitions, there is absolutely no way a professional athlete is at 2%. You can't live at 4% for long, let alone 2%. I'm not going to go into all the reasons but the degree of calorie restriction (or hours of cardio if his calories are up) would leave near zero energy reserves to perform at that level.
This is correct. The method of testing was likely not that accurate (caliper or a bioelectrical scale instead of one of the more accurate methods like underwater weighing).

Sounds about right. I wonder if Pegula made that decision when Marrone did a power play for an extension or before all of it...Then that sounds to me like Pegula didn't want him there anymore and he got all but fired, and Terry got away with paying him 4m instead of 8m if he flat fired him.
We told people and they did not listen. You do not mess with El Petulante.

I've been thinking the same thing. From the outside everything is speculative but it seems pretty clear Marrone was not happy with the QB situation while Whaley wanted to stick with EJ, and caused a rift between them during training camp. The only thing I disagree with is that Marrone thought leaving would be risky. Marrones agent likely told him he'd have strong interest if he opted out and based on his personality I'd wager he wasn't thinking that at all. Like you stated, it was more likely anger at the organization.It's amazing hoe easy Bills fans are to turn 180 degrees.
A week ago Hackett was persona non grata. Now he's a young promising genius who was simply held back by the coaching equivalent of Josef Stalin, who brought only misery and sorrow to the team.

While I agree it is great to hear Stevie and Wood say what they did and want to stay in Buffalo and see their actions back their words, Stevie got a pretty good contract, and I will bet anyone that Wood's is favorable, too, especially because of his injury history. Byrd, on the other hand, has a legitimate argument to be the highest paid safety in the league, and the Bills were not even close to that figure. He feels, probably rightfully, that they undervalue him substantially. Wood and Stevie feel like they got about what they deserve and they probably did. If Stevie or Wood had a legitimate argument to be the highest paid WR or C in the league, it would not have come down like this in all likelihood.
Stevie likely would of gotten a lot more than he did on the market if I recall correctly. Others that were valued lower than him got the same range or more, I believe.

No, but it was far from an obvious thing. He was one of about five guys. Once the draft started and then Barron was off the board it was fairly easy to guess. But before the draft started, there were all kinds of predictions and expectations and he was one of numerous potential picks. And I think we started this by talking about what Buddy was saying in the weeks before the draft.
The later the pick the more that can happen in front of you... That doesn't say anything about how much Buddy gave away. If you can easily predict the pick once on the clock and knew before the draft who they wanted to drop then he gave away too much. Spiller, Dareus, Glilmore were all easy projections based on what the media thought was going to happen with the picks before us.

For me it's:
1-2 Geno and Nassib.
3 Manuel.
And if there are now three guys instead of two, it increases the chances of not taking a QB at 8.
Kelly, out of curiosity, did you hear Nix's comments about Manuel's inconsistency? The general vibe from attendees at the luncheon is that they are not high on Manuel, what makes you think differently?

It's between the uprights?
It looked to me like it was just right of the right upright.
I guess I'm permanently damaged.
Not sure if you were kidding or not but if not, there's been quite a few articles about this.
To access the iPad the player has to sign in using a password.
To use the iPad to access the Bills' servers, there is another username/password hoop.
And when the iPad has been reported lost or stolen, the IT department can simply wipe it clean of contents.
What if they left a binder playbook at Applebees? iPad is more secure.

But he did it 30 times.
Still not that impressive for a NFL player.

remember when fairley jumped to #2 behind cam after his great championship game. in reality he was in that second tier (likely all along too). thats what just happened to teo, but in the opposite direction (he didnt plummet, as likely scouts had him in that second tier of guys already and though likely disappointed in his play and not making the sharp reads he normally does they were also likely not totally shocked that he was a bit overmatched physically)
If you go back and watch that game Fairley was unblocked and didn't "show" much on the majority of his big plays. Fans/media overrated his performance.

Lovie Smith is 22-43 against winning teams. Whiz is 15-29. Chan was, of course, 1-19. Jauron was 4-27.
Belichick is 64-47 with the Pats.
Lets say a coach won every game against teams under .500 and won half against winning teams. They'd be around .750 which is very high. Being 22-43 against winning teams is not as bad as advertised.

Not like they ask a ton of ponder. Could be a good game still if Webb plays within himself.
He tries to create plays in Green Bay in January and it could be bad things.
Green Bay will struggle more against a like Webb, and he has no tape. I expect Green Bay to win but I don't think this hurts the Vikings as much as most believe.
