I've been here 12 years and browse this website everyday. Don't get me wrong - I wrote a "douchey" post, and deserved your response; I get where you're coming from overall, and I'll address those issues below, but you're just as guilty as I am for "blindly trashing" people if you're going to just assume that I'm an idiot based upon my post count and one emotional response to what I believed to be a troll topic. You trashed former BBMB members blindly and you admitted being harsh. Kudos. WRT your post count, maybe if you interacted with the exiles more you might have been more rational and not blasted a group but the few individuals. There are a lot of new members that joined after the shutdown. That does not mean all new members, good and bad, are from there.

nedboy7 Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 It’s a valid good post. If it’s your opinion that none of it’s true cause we made the playoffs then have a dose of your medicine and admit tyrod got us to the playoffs and he should come back. Come on man!

Imagine judging Bill Belichick after his 6-10 rookie season as a HC in Cleveland. Or consider Tex Schramm - widely regarded as one of the best GMs in NFL history - who needed 7 years to achieve a winning record in Dallas. Lots of mistakes were made in those years. Yet Schramm then went on a streak of 20 consecutive winning seasons, including five SB appearances. You can now find Schramm's bust in Canton. Beane hasn't conducted his first draft yet and people are already judging and condemning him. The irony of the OP's screen name - Ittakestime - had already been noted. Now let's give Beane some.

Yikes. We all know who's really in charge its Mcd no doubt about it. He did us a disservice by making the deal with his buddy Andy instead of making the right decision for the Bills. Hou was the obvious choice to make a deal with they were the worst of the 2 teams and definitely had the worst QB of the 2 in a unproven Savage. Make no mistake about it Hou was looking to make a deal and its easy to see when u wanna get in a spot you start calling teams in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3rdand12 Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 Much too early to judge the new Staff. Rebuilding takes time and patience. let us stay tuned in. anyone notice no real leaks about Coaching changes ? Bills have effectively tightened up the FO Since McBeanes and Pegula shook hands. Have no idea what they have in mind. A bit of fun for me to consider what happens after the Super Bowl, and then what players they acquire. I remain positive and hopeful. Love the underdog as well.

Got to give him a few years, because the draft will determine if Beane is a good GM or not Dareus only tries when he feels like it, which isn’t really very often. He makes huge money for his spotty effort, doesn’t get and keep himself in shape and has missed a lot of time due to suspension and injury. Other than that, I am outraged that they traded him for a low draft pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think McD was in charge over a sunken Whaley but from how I understand it Beane is now the guy in charge of handling the personnel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Texans never came calling and even if they did, they and the Chefs were both playoff teams from the year before in weak divisions and their chances of going to the playoffs again were similar.

This is really about McD's call on these issues. It's more than unlikely that Whaley would have wanted to pass on SW's 5th year option if it were up to him. We know McD's connection to Andy Reid was most likely how KC got that 1st round deal and the subsequent Ragland deal hooked up. They certainly didn't win 9 games because of any moves once Beane arrived......if anything they did it in spite of those moves. Beane wasn't even with the Bills during the draft so how is he responsible for not reaching out to "QB-Destitute Houston"? Beane also wasn't responsible for not picking up Watkins 5th year option. That was announced on May 2nd and Beane got to Buffalo on May 9th. Whaley did a nice job finding cast offs from other teams to plug in when players got hurt and he is a good college scout but he didn't do that great of a job drafting and he was not a be-all-end-all GM like you're insinuating he was. Hell, if he was still in Buffalo and had his way, EJ Manual would still be the starting QB and we'd be at 18 years and still counting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really when u got a young unproven QB like Savage heading into the season. I'd be willing to bet vs that team. Kc had been to the playoffs every season since Andy Reid got there they are a better team then Hou. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have kept him for one more year because he counts against the cap anyways and then cut him after that. Theur run defence got a lot worse when he left.

Osweiler was no great shakes for them last year (59% passing, 5.8 YPA, and 15 TD's passing and 2 TD's rushing to 16 INT's and 1 fumble lost) and they still won the division.

Keeping him means he ties up even more money for 2018 for a part-time non-dominant player, still shows up late and still doesn't buy into the process. It was best for both sides to move on.

And they were in the middle of a playoff push I think everyone would have liked to got more for Marcel then we got the problem is - He is a complete gamble......now the jags get to hold their breath in the offseason instead of us to see if he is gonna get in trouble again.....cant stay away from the weed. Wont stay in shape.....constant discipline problem for showing up late to team meetings...you heard the story right? - We missed his run support.....but the fact of the matter is past the first year the guy has not lived up to the massive contract he was given. I dont know about you but I expect a lot more out of a 100 million dollar DT then what he was giving......did it negatively affect the team on the field this year? Yes....did it massively affect it? No the D was pretty good. I fully expect that they are going to address this position.....either in the draft high or a quality free agent.
