Mara can F off. And so can the Bills if they come begging for public money for a stadium. I'll cough up my seasons and walk away. Enough already. This region is dying, despite what your local politicians tell you. We've waste $750M on a solar panel factory that promised more jobs when the money hung in the balance than it will actually deliver. We're one of the few regions losing tech jobs, the key to the economy. We have tooooooo many local governments duplicating services. Poverty is up, wages are stagnant for the vast majority, and yet we want to cough up millions to an owner and a league that prints money? Sorry Terry, sell the yacht and ADK retreat, and the extra houses. It's not my role to undertake debt to secure your profit.
Love this post

I don't get why so many guys are down about the lb corp starters. hopefully ragland turns out to be a stud but with him, p.brown, z. brown and lorax we have a solid core.
we have a very good front 7 and even if we start seymour across from darby with hyde and poyer we can ...and i believe will, climb several spots on defense.
i think mcdermott and the 4-3 is not gonna be a huge change in scheme and i believ he will get the best out of everybody. i think we can easily be in the 10 to12 range.
people are questioning ragland and lorax skill set as a match to this new system. It might not be a big deal since they are talented, but can't help but be a bit skeptical until we see the finished product

Yeah...a UDFA CB will blow up the 17 years of domination......they got rid of Jones, Collins, Milloy, Revis, Moss, Wilfork etc...but is this the move that will doom them....
probably not doom them, but it isn't a long shot for it to blow up in their face. Lots of stuff they done blew up in their face.

Was just going to say, he'd likely start out on PUP
But good player
Might even need to head to IR.
Worth picking him up though
-
Knowing our luck, the Pats will get #11 from the Saints for Butler and #12 (and change) for Jimmy G. They'll go on to take 2 hall of famers who beat us up for the next decade at #11 & #12 while we get someone who flames out of the league in 3 years at #10.
That sounds about right.

This is nothing new and just shows the stupidity of letting Gilmore walk without a plan
That's simple. Darby takes over at CB1 and we have to replace CB2 with someone on the roster, draft, or free agency.
-
o-line choices are not inspiring. Smith is a no for me as would have been Vlad. I get not overpaying but I don't like dumpster diving for olinemen
There really aren't any options for oline in free agency or the draft. We are pretty much out of luck really upgrading. Best thing is we really have only one position on that really needs upgrading the starter

are you supppppeeeeerrrrrrr sure you aren't making this up? Are you really watching a bills and bengals game on a saturday morning and just so happened to get the facts completely wrong?
Haha

Cuz they finally hit their stride together the end of last year.
The last three games Tyrod started, Clay had 18 catches, 209 yards and 4 touchdowns.
This is an interesting stat I keep forgetting. A bad season makes me forget the few good things
-
still hate marrone more than rex.
biggest D bag for a HC has to be bobby petrino. What a gutless loser he was.
-
So Whaley still around and the leaks have all been plugged.
Methinks they weren't coming from his camp, but rather from the guys who showed up late and left early.
Now you know why the media hates whaley

I still think our OC in on the playoff teams. Only reason why no one has been hired yet
-
Aye Aye Skipper.
Buffalo leading the league in bald coaching hires!
Hair we go again
-
This is pretty odd hiring these before the OC. Since they still don't have an OC in place, I still think they want to hire someone from one of the playoff teams and aren't saying anything to avoid getting in any trouble.
-
The last idiot with a strong arm that played QB for the BILLS led us to 4 straight superbowls who happens to be related to the other said idiot. Just saying
Last idiiot we had with a strong arm was Losman. Losman had a cannon of an arm, but dumber than a box of rocks.
-
Seems like very good hire. Defensive staff looking great.
I fear for the offensive staff.
This is my thoughts right now. Especially with a muddy QB situation, we need something good on the offensive side
-
since nothing has leaked yet, i am wondering if the oc is going to come from one of the playoff teams
-
Good candidate, but if they blocked him once, they may block him again.
might depend on the team/division. i wouldnt be surprised if they blocked him from going to a division rival, but wouldnt mind him going to another conference to a team they only see in preseason
-
Mcdermott filled out an application to be the new Billy Buffalo. The bills brought him in for an interview and when Mcdermott got there they informed him they just filled the position. As Mcdermott started to walk away in despair, out comes Terry Pegula, frantically exclaiming "He put me on the spot! I had to fire him! now what will I do next season?!" And terry looked over to Mcdermott and asked "you there, do you prefer the 4-3 or the 3-4?" and the rest is history.

Frazier is a highly respected coach. He would be a great get. They may both come. Money talks.
Although I would agree with this, his terrible defense was a huge reason lovie smith got fired in tampa
-
Of course, being the bills, we have to introduce the guy on Friday the 13th. Might as well have the guy walk under a ladder and open an umbrella indoors.
The curse is real people, be afraid!
-
At this point, I think we only can grab mccoy if he takes the money, because pegulas will gladly throw money at these coaches.
-
We disagree and I am not blind.
I posted the other day a comparison of how Rex's defense did against common opponents of the Eagles whose defensive coordinator (according to some here) invented defense. I also mentioned that PFF rates the Eagles' starting defenders as slightly superior to the Bills defenders.
I did this not to diss Schwartz but to provide context and blunt this narrative that others have had. It is hard to get a defense to perform up to its capabilities when key guys are injured or suspended etc.
Just my two cents.
Injuries aside, there was just so much going wrong with the defense that was clearly a coaching issue. If your defense fields only 10 guys multiple times, something is wrong with coaching. that mistake shouldn't happen at all, and if it happens more than once, that is definitely coaching. Those mistakes shouldn't be happening with you are closing out the 2nd season in this system

I like Watkins a lot and it is a shame he cant stay healthy.
With that said, he isn't a bust, but I think at this point he would have to be seen as a reach. 2 first rounders given up for him, (QB issues aside) and evans and OBJ (and arguably others) picked after him have been more productive.
Not saying he is a bust, but I don't think he was worth what we gave up, which I guess is a reach.
If he can somehow stay healthy, he will help this team get on the right track. huge if at this point

The only one of those that seems bad or a bust contract is the Clay one. All the other contracts have at least an argument as to why it was worth it. I don't think Gilmore was worth the contract the pats gave him. and Mccoy is special, and he is our star on offense. Patriots don't need to invest in the RB position because they have probably the best QB in history playing for them. I see nothing wrong with the contract we gave mccoy, he carries our offense and he has been worth every penny.
Whaley's failures have been not getting a franchise QB and making a questionable trade up for sammy watkins. Overall I consider him an average GM. but he made some mistakes early on and it looks like this will be his last season barring a miracle of us getting into the playoffs
