Im sure this has been mentioned, but how long has it been since a Bills RB rushed for over 200 yards in a game?

Would you have not hired him as OC tobegin with then? Or fired him at some
point? If the latter, when would you have fired him?
I probably would have hired Brady on an interim basis after firing Dorsey, but would have interviewed other candidates before hiring him full-time. He is absolutely not up to the job and has turned Josh Allen into a game manager, despite having a top 3 offensive line and almost zero injuries during his entire tenure.

So if you were running the show, you would have gotten rid of Brady at some point already, and/or not hired him as OC at all? Just want to make sure I understand what you’re saying.Absolutely. It’s very clear that Brady is not good enough.

Scoring a franchise-record in points last season wasn’t good enough for you?A 10-1 turnover ratio was instrumental in that metric. See what it looks like now that there’s been a regression to the mean?

I wonder if they could give Ja'Marcus Ingram some more playing time. He seemed to make some plays last year in spot duty although he probably made mistakes also but can he be any worse than an aging White ? Anybody have an assessment on him ?
According to Joe Marino, Ingram’s play at cornerback this year has been significantly worse than Tre White’s. So there’s that…

I know Beane is getting criticized for the roster but IMO this is one area where he deserves it. The fact that we rolled into the season with Rapp, Bishop and Damar as our core group was short sighted. Additional, it highlights when you continue to throw a ton of resources year after year on the DL with minimal hits, it creates significant roster gaps elsewhere.
Rapp: Struggles staying healthy
Bishop: Who more than struggled his rookie year.
Damar: Who is slow and isn’t a NFL starter
This is who Beane and McDermott decided to roll with? And to make it worse we sign Poyer who we all appreciate his time as a Bill but his best days are behind him.
On top of that, they knew Rapp had a potential serious injury in training camp but couldn’t weave in getting Hancock ready? Even worse, you’ve watched for SEVEN weeks of Rapp struggling and still couldn’t get Hancock ready?
Really inexcusable IMO!
I don’t know what Rapp’s injury is…it looks like he’s allergic to physical contact, just has no desire to play anymore, after being one of our best tacklers last year. Truly puzzling…

Sure... I understand all that and it's definitely true... But a missed tackle is a missed tackle... We had a shot and we missed... And that is killing us... To compound the problem we are also seeing a spike in multiple missed tackles on the same play...
See above…

As bad as things have looked recently, this is the type of game the Bills have consistently won, and won big, under McDermott…I think that will continue on Sunday.

If you want to simplify the problems on Defense in 2025 down to the biggest problem that is actually really easy...
It's missed tackles and it's not even close...
There are certainly other issues... But missed tackles have absolutely killed us this year so far.
Missed tackles are a symptom…the cause is smaller, slower, athletically inferior players who get to the ball late and are physically out-manned when they do arrive…

I think it is also fair at this point to ask whether there is something about the defensive scheme, or possibly the type of players McDermott favors, that leads to higher injury rates. This defense is decimated with injuries year after year after year. We’re reaching the point where it’s hard to believe it’s just a coincidence.

For context, they had 14 guys drafted this past draft. They currently have 5 projected 1st rounders and a bunch more guys getting drafted. They have NFL players everywhere and that’s not changing in the NIL era. They only bring in the best talent in the nation. They often sit for a little while but then go to the NFL. For example, Julian Sayin was locked in a QB battle until August. He currently has the 3rd best Heisman odds. The guys “on their bench” aren’t there because they aren’t future stars. They are sitting behind guys a year or 2 closer to the NFL.
For example, Jordan Hancock (Bills’ 5th round pick) wasn’t even a full time starter last year for OSU…

I am talking right now. Which is what the question is being posed as since we are talking about trading rosters.
Even with 30 NFL players, if we are projecting out a few years, that means they would have 23+ players they'd need to replace.
Also if the Bills played Ohio State, Allen would be in a hat on the sidelines midway thru the 2nd quarter. It would not be a close game.
I never said OSU would beat the Bills. I was responding to the ridiculous comment that OSU has only 10 NFL-caliber players in the current roster.

I wouldn’t even trade the guys on our practice squad plus the guys we all will know will end up there (Eli Ankou, Jefferson, the usual suspects) for their team.
You don’t follow college football much, do you? Most of the guys on our practice squad would not come close to breaking into OSU’s starting lineup. It’s possible that every one of ISU’s starters will be drafted in the next three years. The top college teams these days have very few “future insurance salesmen” in the lineup.

I wouldn't read too much into this game against a laughably untalented opponent, but it is starting to seem like they have no real challengers in the AFC. I'm interested to see what Indy looks like against them in a few weeks. KC's defense is not elite this year and Jonathan Taylor has been playing like an MVP candidate. Lou Anarumo is their DC and he has confounded Mahomes in the past. So there are some favorable elements there that at least in theory make them a worthy challenger. Is Daniel Jones up to the task though? That's the biggest question.
They still play Denver twice, as well. Those games won’t be easy.

This has to be the dumbest post I have ever read on here. How many NFL players does Ohio State have on their roster?
10 if they are lucky?
Dude, Ohio State probably has 30+ future NFL players on their roster. Every starter will either be drafted or signed as a UDFA in the next three years. They probably have 5-10 first round picks starting right now, and several others who are Frosh or Sophomores who aren’t playing yet.

Haven't watched the Raiders but I would have figured Pete Carroll would love to establish the run game.
That team is just bereft of talent as a result of being the worst drafting team in the NFL over the past decade.

Titans putting up a fight…there is certainly something to the new coach bounce theory, especially when the fired coach was the worst in the league.

Without a doubt. Vrabel wants to stick it to them. It sucks having to catch the Pats now.

It's too bad Allen is basically the Phillip Rivers of the NFL. Good player, but will never get to a SB unless something changes. Front office and coaching is the most glaring issue.
Except Rivers was never in the discussion for best QB in the league…

Its also the reason New Orleans will probably hang on to him until the last few minutes of the deadline. someone will overpay because of the demand.
Or N.O. will just keep him. They aren’t a terrible football team. They could compete in their division next year.

I’ve been banging on the table for Shaheed! He is what the Bills offense needs, fastest speed in the NFL, and only on the books for 1.2 million in 2025. Beane get off your ass and make this trade now!
If Shaheed were on the market, 31 teams would be lined up.

Back up Matt Jones threw for 342 yards and 2TDs, beat the rams, despite not having Kittle, Aiyuk, Pearsall.
That shows what a real coordinator can do. If Brady was coorinator, Rams win imo
I’ve always wanted to see what peak Josh Allen could do with a really good OC…we’ll probably never know.

Week 8 (10/27/25) MNF: Washington at Kansas City (Bills discussion is allowed)
in The Stadium Wall

Marcus Mariota was probably the best college QB I’ve ever seen…other than being drafted by the Titans, I just can’t understand what happened to him…
