If you look at kicking around the league, Hauschka is a VERY underrated part of our success. The Browns might be 5-0 and the Packers might be 4-1 with a kicker of his caliber.
If Carpenter is our kicker last year, the drought is still alive. Successful NFL teams have good kickers.

the Cowboys are a boring team to watch.
Yes, and unfortunately they are on national TV each and every week.
By the way, most sane people would probably say that the Bills aren’t a particularly exciting team to watch....?
Boy, Watson looks very accurate. I really like his delivery too.

I would keep Hughes next year...
He is not overly expensive for his abilities, and he will be motivated in a contract year to play well for one last payday.. ( maybe not with Buffalo for 2020 and beyond..)
I have feeling though that there will be another dozen or so "trade Hughes for a 6th" threads over the next 8 months......
Hell yes you keep Hughes. He is a borderline elite edge rusher, and those guys don’t grow on trees. He might be having his best year...

I don't recall many people hating the pickup. He's certainly not in his prime but he serves a very useful role of being in a tough inside runner tough situations. He's the type of rugged player you want on your roster because he is a no frills player who understands his role but more importantly fulfills his role.
Thank you. No one hated the pickup. Some said we overpaid, which is a fair comment.

Hau$ch has ice in his veins. How did Sea let him go? Was a beast there too during their sb years
Good example of why most playoff teams have + kickers. Most underrated position in football.

I think we are all going to enjoy the decline of Tom Brady. Looking at his interception count he’s starting to throw a lot more than his usual single digit mark per season. He’s at 6 in 5 games. Over a season that’d be 19. Still on pace for 38 TDs but the interception count is something to take note of.
Please...Neither “interception” tonight had anything to do with Brady.

Colts defender missed the tackle on Edelman because he was being TACKLED by one of the Pats receivers. Announcers review the replay and don’t even mention it—just dis the Colts player for missing the tackle.?

I don’t care what anyone says—I love Thursday Night Football.
Luck looks very good, by the way.

Oh glad i caught the Kraft Family. Heartwarming story.
Where would the league be without them??

Why is that not an illegal pick?

This makes no sense, why don't they promote a couple guys from the PS?
Wouldn’t that require them to release or IR someone?

And Amazon Prime Video, I think

Herbert looks nothing like a 1st overall pick to me at this stage.
Herbert's only played half a season each of the past two years. As of now, he looks like a solid top 12 pick to me. He's upped his game from last year and might very well look like a no. 1 overall by the end of the season. He certainly has the tools. Lots of football left.

Bills, 20-16. I can't defend this prediction logically, based on the matchups, the personnel or the coaching, but this is just the type of game the Bills have won in recent history. They somehow pull off a win when people start writing off the season and start looking forward to a top-five draft pick. I don't know how they do it, but they do. And the Titans are hardly unbeatable.

He freaked out because he wants to be on the field. How is that not the type of player that fits the culture.
Agreed. I can think of far worse attitude problems. If Dareus had shown the same “attitude,” he might still be here.

Anyone know how Malik Hooker is doing this year?

Mahomes would look no different than Allen on this team in this offense.
Stop. That is delusional nonsense. Mahomes is miles and miles ahead of Allen (and Darnold and Rosen) at this moment. There’s really no denying that. The question is, will Allen close the gap and how soon will he do it?

Just a counter to the Fire whoever passed on Mahomes thread....just pointing out the vast majority of the fanbase wanted to trade out and pass on Mahomes.
That’s not how I read those threads. It was being reported that the Bills were looking to trade down and people were mostly trying to surmise who they would trade with and what the trade down would reap. And anyway, the fact that lots of fans were ok with the trade down at the time does not let Bills front office off the hook and doesn’t mean we can’t criticize it now. They are ultimately accountable. And if Allen becomes a very good QB, all’s forgiven. I’m sure at this stage of RGIII’s career, Redskins fans were over the moon with their big trade up in the 2012 draft.
At any rate, even as of now, it’s not the worst trade in the world. At a minimum, with the lower first round pick, we got what looks like a perennial pro bowl player at a premium position. My real anger is directed at whomever let the offensive talent on this team become so horribly depleted.

I think the bigger thing those franchises did is they spent a ton of money on offense in the QB's sophomore seasons. Presumably that is our plan for next year too.
That’s true, but the offensive cupboard was nowhere near as bare for those teams as it is for the Bills. We literally need 7-9 new starters on offense and there are no promising young reserves on the bench. It will be very difficult to get talented FA receivers to come to Buffalo, if there even are any available. I don’t think this offense can be turned around in one offseason, especially by this bunch. Best hope is that we have the 1 overall pick and can unload it for multiple premium picks.

the thing that sucks is if Allen is the real deal, we have the Derek Carr , Khalil Mack situation , where you just can't afford both. It may not make sense to trade up for two first rounders in the same draft for this reason.
Let’s just hope we have that “problem.”

Preston was not adequate. God forbid he would make a tackle for a loss ever.

I have a question. If they aren't hard to find, why haven't the Bills found a good one in so long? Just wondering
The guy who played MLB for the Bills the last couple seasons was more than adequate. He was a third round draft choice.

Okay, Sal. But what were you saying in April 2017?
That’s a good catch, but the bottom line is that Sal is not a scout or GM for the Bills. It doesn’t change the fact that there was a major fail that took place in last year’s draft.

Actually, someone needs to be fired over the fact that in the history of the modern NFL, it’s unlikely that any team has fielded a team so entirely devoid of offensive weapons. It’s almost impossible to do.

Well, obviously the Titans’ loss hurts our strength of schedule.
