Did it hurt the Bills? At the time, Josh's contract was at the top.
Tua is not Josh. Josh covers so much of what’s happening on the roster, weak points are not as weak. Tua needs so much help, him having a too contract will absolutely hamper the dolphins

This is obviously false. What are we even doing here? Again, he had ZERO dropped interceptions on the season. If defenders can catch his passes, his teammates that are paid to catch his passes can do it too.
It's crazy how many excuses fans come up with to avoid admitting that his pass catchers simply weren't very good this year. Shakir was probably the best of them over the course of the entire season, and that represents a huge failure by Beane.
Last year too. When they brought in Beasley and Brown late in the year I knew we were screwed. Huge failure by the FO

Bringing in big names doesn’t always work
out. Look no further than our rival Dolphins. They hired Fangio to get them over the hump and stop Josh Allen
0-2 vs the Bills
Wildcard exit
Need a new DC
Everyone points to spags but you could just as easily get Fangio and have nothing to show for it

This part is maddening, the punter is worse, kicker was way worse, kick coverage was awful for a team that tries to force returns, and the punt coverage was very bad. The fake was poorly executed and he had to be involved in the too many men debacle.
and in 2022 they were a top 5 unit in a bunch of categories in special teams and top 10 in most of the others. I'm not happy with how they performed, but I think its worth seeing if he can turn it around

Will anybody be brought in as an external candidate?!!
Yes, they will be the asst. LB coach and asst D line. This is how McDermott builds his pipeline and brings in new ideas.
Giving young guys a shot to make it in the league. Maybe you uncover a gem of a coach. Read up on Mike McDaniels and his assent to HC

My money is on Davis Webb. Allen seems like he is able to essentially choose who his backups are, and those decisions are often based on personal friendships (Barkley, Kyle Allen).
Webb was gone after only one year here and is probably bitter about how the QB room was constructed.
Webb and Josh are good friends. Webb left because the Bills wanted to make him the QB coach and he wanted to play one more year

I hope fields goes to NE.
Fields is bad. He makes some highlight plays, but his passing skills make Lamar look like Mahomes. If he goes to NE, McDermott will have a field day against him
Also, Mayo himself has said they are draft a QB

Nothing like the DC of a great defense that allowed the first ever 7th seed to win a playoff game.
And not only that, they got destroyed. The Packers walked all over them, it was never a game

I feel bad for Wilson. If your coach tells you that you are getting traded at the end of the season and that you'll be inactive the rest of the season, of course he didn't want to come back and play for them.
Saleh is a thin skinned moron.
Saleh is a well spoken ReX Ryan

Very surprised Vrabel is not going to get a HC job.
Don’t be. His defenses were good, not dominant in TN and he never developed a game plan that wasn’t “handoff right, handoff left”
Good coach that took advantage of a historically bad division

This is the most predictable thing ever. The bit about Zach Wilson being excited to work with Rogers and then Rogers flying home and never talking to Wilson had me on the floor laughing
Yet shockingly predictable
1 hour ago, CincyBillsFan said:Yea my opinion of Wilson went way up after reading this:
Saleh told the quarterback he would be inactive for the rest of the season and that the team would try to trade him in the offseason. But in the days before the Falcons game, Saleh reversed course and told Wilson to start practicing as if he might play again. He did not play against Atlanta, but after the Jets lost, Wilson knew they were considering starting him again. He expressed reluctance about returning to play and said he would politely decline if asked, based on his previous conversation with Saleh and fears of getting injured behind the Jets’ makeshift offensive line.
Like a lot of other folks I thought Wilson was a baby for saying he didn't want to go back in. But if Salah told him that he would be inactive the rest of the season and then changed his mind that is non Salah not Wilson.
Yeah. Salah is an idiot. This is poor management and I don’t blame Wilson at all for not wanting to play. It’s a business and he was making a business decision
Wilson never had a chance there. He isn’t good, but the Jets have done him no favors

Most banks don't even have a lot of money on hand. I found this out when I went to buy a motorcycle with cash. I went to my local Bank of America branch on a Friday and wanted to take out $16,000. Naturally, I assumed that they had loads of cash back in the vault, but apparently they don’t. They said we can't give you the $16k because it's payday, and we don't want to give away that much cash on a payday. I ended up having to go to three different branches to scrape together the $16k. LOL They said in the future, if you want a lot of cash, place an order for it beforehand.
Yeah that’s a thing they started doing when people really robbed banks. You gonna rob a bank for 4K? And get how much jail time?
Nah just keep it somewhere far safer and it won’t be an issue

That and Rosen felt Brady esque in that he didn't have an elite arm but was good at reading defenses. Able to lead his team back (see win at USC). He just seemed to be the safest QB to draft.
I loved Rosens tape. He was like a machine and did his reads perfectly, good mechanics, good enough arm all that good stuff.
Mayfield was just fun. I thought he’d be successful wherever he went and he sorta has. Two playoffs wins for two organizations is pretty impressive.
Darnold had the turnovers issues. I didn’t really have an issue with his INTs. At least he trusted his arm, you can work on reads with a guy like that, but he was so careless with the ball and his fumbles were very concerning. He never seemed to sense the pressure well and protect the ball and himself
Allen had some serious wow plays but also some serious wtf plays. His talent was eye popping, but tons of guys had his talent that couldn’t put it together.
The 2018 Draft changed how I looked at QB Prospects. Started looking at what they could do vs what they had done. Rosen, In hindsight, couldn’t do anything off script. Couldn’t improvise. He was mechanical, coached to do things a certain way and couldn’t adjust. That works in college, but not in the pros. Allen could sit in the pocket and throw a dime, or he could run backwards, throw a DT off of him, spin around and then throw a dime. One of those guys has a much better shot in the pros
It’s why this last draft I saw nothing in Bryce Young didn’t look like a 1st round pick to me, much less number one overall. I would have taken Richardson, then stroud, then Levis. All those guys had issues and their game wasn’t as “clean” as young. But give me a guy that can run through a wall and rip a pass into double coverage. Those are the throws you have to make in the pros. Young looks like Rosen in the pros and Carolina doesn’t get a mulligan like AZ got

**** the pro bowl. It's been a joke for 15 or so years, and now it's an abomination.
Last year when Tyler Huntley, who had two TDs in 5 games, was a pro bowler was next level abomination

Yeah, I really don’t think the NFL cares enough about a pop-star to rig the entire league in the Chiefs favor.
There are 31 other billionaires that wouldn’t be happy with that. And for many of them ego > money.Also, its the Super Bowl. People are going to watch it if it had the Panthers and Texans

That’s actually much better than I expected.
I recommend watching them. He's been a pain in the ass for Bills fans, but he knows football and is actually pretty personable when he's not doing press conferences. I believe he did the Army/Navy game this past year too as a color analyst and received positive reviews
His Football Life episode too is must watch IMO

Not so many historians in the broadcast booth. You're not wrong, Bill's bottle was filled with gatorade, his Alpha Bits cereal was only X's and O's, and he wore a jock strap when potty training. He IS football personified. But Seth MacFarlane, the biggest Patriots fan even nailed his stony demeanor. Joey bag o donuts wouldn't appreciate the wealth of knowledge with such a deadpan delivery.
Heres part of his show from a few years ago. He would be amazing on TV. If he doesnt coach this year, I hope he does something on TV. He's excellent

He would be fantastic. BB knows more about the history of the game than anyone. He could be the next Madden if he wanted to go that route

I'm confused, so when he was here he was horrible and the fans wanted him gone but now that Miami is interested in him he is good again? Must have learned a lot during that year off...
I never thought he was horrible, but I also thought it might be time for a new approach. That's pretty much how I feel with McDermott

I actually think Frazier would be a good hire for them. He’s steady and with their oddball HC, they could use a serious if not boring presence sometimes

Purdy is really really good. He is in an amazing system with some great players, but he is a big reason why they are in the the Super Bowl. Shanny finally found the guy he’s been searching for
