Certainly fair points. There's just so much to it. Such a weird/interesting story.

I'm not sure it gets that deep. It might, I dont know. But from what I heard about Shedeur's predraft interviews, and that he was far more interested in telling teams what HE thought about THEIR organization and how HE was going to change it for them, instead of listening to what they had to say about his playing and answering questions on the board, that's enough to make any prospect fall. He got too far ahead of himself and was acting like a franchise QB when he hadnt played a professional down yet. That type of attitude, at the QB position, aint gonna go well. Not much need for long-time grudges or drama past that.

You mean Beane isnt foaming-at-the-mouth mad about Cooks minor social media posts and isnt trying to trade away our 2nd best Offensive weapon? TBD hater brigade in shambles.

You got the first part right. Gen Z and their search for social media clout has "pranks" all wrong. A good prank, a real prank, is one where all parties are laughing in the end. Most of this social media "it's just a prank, bro" bs is mean-spirited punching down, or often times just straight up physical assault.

The issue isnt really the prank call. The issue is data security, or lack there of. The fact that someone was able to access Dad's device and get a phone number off of it opens the door to all sorts of security and responsibility questions. Over my 25 years in the tech world, we've fired plenty of people for less/similar. Kid is living the comfy life off of dad's million dollar pro coaching career, and he almost flushed it all over... tiktok clout. Plus, for as much heat as Shedeur took this weekend, he's a 21 year old getting drafted into the NFL. This "kid" is a 21 yr old making prank calls from his parent's basement. Pathetic for a grown adult young man.

You arent wrong. Fingers crossed his concussions dont make that decision for us.

And we also had multiple players from both sides of the ball talk about how the Chiefs threw stuff at them they hadnt seen before and werent ready for. Even with all the familiarity we have with them. That is coaching. The Bills have had plenty of luck. Our turnover numbers on both Offense and Defense last year was a lot of luck. We had a bunch of calls go our way too. Yes, good teams are lucky. But sometimes you have to make your own luck. And it wasnt luck that kept us out. It was poor performance by the coaches and defense. Again.

And yet, he and the defense are still the main reason we havent made it to the top of the mountain. Not the Offense. I dont care about his stats in Carolina.

I get them confused as well. "Some big WR whose name starts with SH that we've never really seen play"

McD and the Defense have done more to waste Josh's prime than anything else.

Not as long as Josh is the chef.

@Stenbar, thinking of Shavers?

Whatever works. That's why we take more than 1.

The good news is our staff is already experienced at dealing with cardiac arrest on the field

But didnt show up in the SB which they let turn into a shoot-out track meet. Then they figured it out in 2024.

I dont see Walker taking the top spot from Jones, but someone else on the roster can and then that makes room at the bottom for Walker.

Folks here wanted to draft guys with that description in the 2nd. 🤷‍♂️

Trying to just score and out-score is what lost them the previous SB against KC. They showed up this year and STOPPED Mahomes by pressuring him up the middle and every where else.

At some point you have to get the guys who can pull it off because its the one proven way to beat the Chiefs (TB and Philly).

Moving him isnt worth the 5th or 6th rd pick we'd get for him. Especially on his cheap rookie deal.

One more 3rd down stop by the D and we win in KC by 7-10 points. That's the issue.

Old man Jones on his way out

It isnt the draft for Offense skill positions, and it wasnt our Offense not performing. Build that D.

Yeah, we got it back from the Bears for #132 and #169

Well there you go, 1-tech crowd!
