Dr. Who

He'll likely be available. We should look into it.

That's a solid ranking. Just find a way and get one of them.

He looks like a pleasant, decent fella. As for brights, we'll see, but his Wonderlic score was fairly good and he seems able to read a defense and see the field, which will be a change for us.

Thanks for clarifying.

COT = Cult of Tyrod, I believe. I have consistently thought Tyrod was not a franchise qb and probably really a decent backup. Nonetheless, I was happy when he seemed to play well and prior to the last few games, he exceeded my expectations. I have enough real life problems and have no desire to become embroiled in message board silliness. I like Tyrod as a person. He's just not that good and it appears defenses have figured him out. He is also not really suited for the offense Dennison is using. Peterman fits the offense. The majority of fans are eager for a new face and the second-string qb is always popular until he actually has to play. I think Peterman has an inside straight kind of chance to surprise and I hope he does.

Certainly, any view of a fella going by SaviorPeterman I take as 100% objective. J/k, I am hoping we found the proverbial overlooked gem. At minimum, Peterman's skill set matches WCO much better than Tyrod's.

The quality of the 2018 qb draft doesn't appear as desirable as it did before the season. Nonetheless, I like the win-win-win scenarios.

Yes, it's not at all a good sign.

In the CFL, probably.

It's not over because the AFC is full of not very good teams. If we can rise above pathetic, we might squeak in and then get crushed.

So is it the team quit on Taylor? The whole unit, the OC? Can't really answer these rhetorical questions, but I wonder if there is confidence that with better personnel the offense will function well or at least not be a complete disaster. I was hoping the mirage was not a mirage, but in general its hard to argue against this. Well, fine, but we got rid of a fella who was not zealous for the process and picked up a cool sixth round draft pick that could escalate to a fifth!

Yep. This ^^^^^^^ in spades.

We obviously confused defending your dirt with playing like dirt. Simple mistake.

Well, I agree with Dr. K's assessment. Snarky and nasty at 45 is not a good look, either.

How old are you? I was fine with that sort of thinking when I was in my thirties. Now I'd like to see a decent team before I am wearing Depends.

Where is Charlie Brown? He'll set you all straight.

5 - 3.8

I have not watched a lot of Cousins this year. I like his leadership qualities, though I had assumed previously he benefitted from system and a nice wr corps. If he is as good as you fellas surmise, obviously you ought to make a play for him. Lot of teams looking for qb, though. Still like Luck and if Irsay was unhinged enough to unload him below market value you'd have to at least inquire. Taylor has outperformed what I anticipated, but I'd still like to upgrade at the most important position in football.

I did not say anything about trading half your draft so I don't need to defend such a hypothetical. If the cost is prohibitive, it's a non-starter. I stated as a precondition Bills' doctors determining that Luck is actually healthy. I surmise that with a decent o-line and a better defense, Luck would flourish more here than with the Colts. I'd like to see the difference between Luck's contract and what Cousins ends up getting before determining what constitutes a "franchise-crippling" contract. I bet Cousins ends up with a similar deal.

I realize one would have to expend draft capital to acquire Luck, but he is the same age as Kirk Cousins. Some folks are fine with making a lucrative free agent offer for that fella. If you trust Bills' doctors -- I'm not sure I do, frankly -- and Luck checks out, you absolutely should consider trading for him.

Any thoughts on Lamar Jackson? Is he Tyrod with a higher ceiling?

When you're the Patriots and have established a winning reputation over the course of years, of course you can accept barely scraping by a bad team. When you haven't made the playoffs this millenium and you are a perennial bad to mediocre team, everyone is reading the tea leaves to see if there is a sign you have actually progressed to a good team. I personally don't think the wins are particularly impressive in retrospect. Further, you could make a plausible case that for whatever differences there might be between McD and Jauron, this is still largely a veteran team of overachievers who "bought in." That means one has a slight edge in the close games where veteran leadership might tilt the game your way. Who would you rather be right now, the Rams with a young signal caller that seems to have turned the corner towards franchise qb with young talent on both sides of the ball and a qb whisperer for head coach or this group of Bills? The former seems to me clearly a team on the rise. We might get there, but I think this team is a question mark. They need to hit on a lot of draft picks and infuse youth and more talent. Character and buying into the process needs the spice of a few superstars if you're going to be a consistent Super bowl contender.

No offense, Heitz. You're a good poster . . .

I agree. So, metaphorically the drones of corporate America are applauded for their groupthink and the fella who shows some deviation from easy consumer blandness is ostracized. Whenever I hear dilly dilly, I think someone is identifying themselves as an idiot.

Yes, I would like to be overweight like that.
