I don't mind the pick itself; it's giving away two 4th round picks to move up a few slots when there are still loads of good players on the board and Ragland might be there when your turn comes anyway that I believe is inexcusable--a firing offense, actually. It amazes me how casually Whaley gives away our 4th round draft picks (Bryce Brown, Ragland, the extra pick to move up for Sammy).If Ragland didnt get injured and played like a young Ray Lewis you wouldnt be saying that, and if he played like Aaron Maybin I wouldnt be saying this.

Part of it is flat out negligence/incompetence at QB and OC and part of it is that the Bills run very few offensive plays. Hard to get Sammy a lot of targets when you are constantly going 3 and out.You would think it would be easy enough to get him targets but we havent seen this for his entire career. He has never gotten targets one would think he should get based on him being the #1 guy. Seems so overly simply which makes me wonder if there is something we are missing that only coaches and players are aware of that is the reason?
-
Yep, the Pats are obviously just a flash in the pan. Anyone can see that.God bless you JFH. Pats peaking too soon, LOL.
-
Then why give up a king's ransom to get him if you're not going to (or can't) target him? And even though he hasn't missed many starts, Sammy has seemingly rarely been 100%, and it looks like he's going to be hobbled for much of this season, too, if not shut down altogether. When you use multiple high draft picks to acquire one player, you are putting all those eggs in one basket, instead of spreading the risk around. When that one player you selected gets hurt, your whole investment tanks. That's one of the reasons I hated giving up two extra 4th round picks to take Ragland, who promptly got himself hurt. Awful trade and entirely unnecessary.He's simply not targeted enough.
-
And yet they still drafted a WR with their first pick. Hmm,Still love Hopkins game.
To think of what he has done in this league with the Trash QBs that have been throwing him the ball.

This can't be right. Didn't Kim P say before the season that Rex is not going anywhere?

Also did I miss the part where it said he gets the players healthy faster or how many player outside of Brady he sees?
I think that's in the second link. Regardless, this reflects very poorly on Brady.
-
Not a doctor--a snake-oil salesman. Thanks for the link. This guy should be in jail, and Brady should have his head examined for associating with him. Incredible.http://www.bostonmagazine.com/news/blog/2015/10/09/tom-brady-alex-guerrero-neurosafe/
Here, so you can see how crazy I am. The guy still works for them off the books. Every fan should read these articles it sheds some light on how the pats players recover miraculously fast. Using a shady third party doctor so they are not held liable.

The best way to increase targets is to get more first downs. When the offense goes 3-and-out half the time, no one is going to see a lot of targets.Watkins said today the foot is fine. He's been able to do things that he was unsure of and the foot is no excuse. He wants targets , but also said RW and Clay need more targets too. They need to execute better as an offense. Besides, he's been open in these first two games. The foot hasn't been a problem really.

I have to say, the Buckeyes looked really impressive on Saturday, just toyed with Oklahoma. They would get my vote as no. 1.Check this out

With Watkins hobbled, we can expect that to continue.Happy that the 2016 Leading Bills WR is back from his concussion....
Who would have thought through 2 weeks Goodwin would be leading the team in yardage
-
Anyone else sick of Lionel Richie/Peyton Manning? If I see that ad one more time this weekend, my tv is not gonna make it.
-
Yep, the Pegulas put in place an infrastructure that was almost guaranteed to lead to disfunction. They really seem to be in over their heads.Why is that weird, given the reporting structure set up by the Pegulas where Whaley has no authority over the coaching staff and Rex, like Whaley and Brandon, report in parallel directly to the Pegulas?
-
Have you heard of Ryan Grigson?any gm looks great when you get a qb
-
Is it just me or does TT look slower than he did last year? Last year he looked like a threat to break one every time he took off running, but this year he seems unable to outrun people.
-
It's harder to build a good offense than a good defense. It requires a solid offensive line, which in and of itself is hard to build and hard to coach into a cohesive unit. Then you need skill players that the defense has to account for--receivers who can't easily be single covered. Then of course you need a QB, the most elusive piece of all. And on top of that, you need a smart offensive coordinator--it seems to me that offensive play design and play calling is more complex than defensive playcalling and design. I just don't think it's nearly as hard to build a solid defense--hell, even Rex did it once upon a time.
This organization has been massively incompetent for a decade and a half. Building a good offense is far beyond its capability, while there have been times that they have had a good coordinator who managed to cobble together a pretty strong defense for a year or two.

The few times he has been wrong were the times he got suckered into thinking the Bills were on the right track: At one point, he felt Fitz was the answer at QB and supported his new contract, and I believe he was fully on board with the Rex hire. Being wrong about those things has made him even more skeptical, and rightly so.hes been saying this team is terrible for years. He's expressed his opinions about EJ, Dareus, Stevie, Fitz, Etc...
He's actually ALWAYS been right. For years we've hated him because we have rose colored glasses on. But in reality, he's always been right all along.
It sucks to say that. And I'm sure it sucks just as much to hear it. But sit back and think about all the times you hated Sully for what he's said. But the fact is we have sucked for the past 16 years and he's been right about that as far as I can remember
-
Surprised no one has mentioned Tom Herman. Or maybe I just missed it.
-
Yep. The idea that the offense is fine because the team scored 31 points is absurd to anyone who actually watched the game. Zero sustained drives until the last possession, when the Jets DB's were lined up in Lackawana. And that 4th and 1 sequence....True, but the offense did suck out loud too.
-
The third and 1, fourth and 1, EJ, timeout burning debacle alone was grounds for immediate termination.

Thad Lewis reincarnate.JP Losman reincarnate

Moves the chains so your stretched, tired defense isn't constantly trotting back on the field.- Makes the HC and OC look better
- Can put up huge numbers of points on a day when the defense isn't playing well
- Makes his WR's look good
- A few bad zebra calls. No problem...I'll just complete a big pass on 3rd and forever
- Game on the line late in the 4th quarter...here's another comeback
Until we have a franchise QB, this 5-11, 6-10, 7-9, 8-8, 9-7 crap will continue no matter how many times they change coaches, players, GM's, team presidents, etc...

Dan Snyder is a great businessman, too. So was Ralph Wilson and probably Donald Sterling. There really is no correlation between that and knowing how to run a professional sports team.Without the Pegula's we may of lost the Bills.
My hope is that like any great business people, Terry and Kim will learn and get better.
-
I too was hoping they would keep Tyrod on the sideline. I think EJ would have done much better, especially with all the time the offensive line was giving him. Tyrod looks shell-shocked, at this point.Was I the only guy out there who was kind of disappointed when Tyrod jogged back out there after the mandatory concussion thing? EJ completed a pass! Yeah, it was thrown low, but he completed a move-the-sticks type pass!
Time to see what Cardale can do?

And Cardale didn't look bad at all in preseason. He had one very good game, one mediocre one, and one not so good, all playing behind the second and third team O-line and throwing to now-unemployed receivers. If this team is 2-6 at the bye, I would run him out there.
