george c Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 Its a little tough to bring in veteran talent with no cap space. remember the amount of dead money from Whaley & co? Trusting the process, in this case, its just like the escape from Shawshank. We’re just at the beginning of the 500’ pipe, and a long way to go, which may include a potential 2-14 season this year.

I also expected Peterman to at least be serviceable. I was wrong. My biggest concern is that this coach and GM thought he made progress from what he was last season, and deserved to start. This scares the crap out of me. I didn't like the Allen pick, now I am even less confident in this FO when it comes to talent e v a l. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This one was a big one, of course. I'm not happy about it, but I'm one of those who tend to look for the positive, and there were positives in this game. The main positive is that Josh Allen did not embarrass himself despite less than ideal conditions in which to get his first regular season action.

Your front office, coaches and players go through a lengthy off-season of preparation. The players and coaches are selected, the player payroll is $125+ million. Months and months of work is done by all and in your first opportunity to put it all to use, you get that effort and result that we saw today? It's pathetic. It's outrageously bad. It's inexcusable. We'll see what kind of pride and determination and character this group has next week. If I were the Pegula's you'd have to scrape me off the ceiling when we all meet tomorrow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did not watch the entire game because each possession with Peterman at QB was always going to be the same as the first 5 I saw. I turned it back on when a fellow Bills fan told me they put Allen in. People geek tfo. Billspolar should be deemed a true mental disorder. It was an ugly game. We had three or four of those last year and still made the playoffs. I don't expect much from this team. Didn't before TC even started and still don't now, but I'm not running around like my hair is on fire in the desert either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Allen Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 1. It was easy to forsee a step back on offense - they lost three OL starters two unexpectedly, and traded a decent QB with a low ceiling to draft Josh Allen. 2. With the addition of Murphy and Star, the defense should have been better, much better, even factoring in the Davis move. 3. Peterman earned the start in preseason. That being said, he lost it this afternoon. From all appearances he's a good man, a hard worker, somebody like my daughter should marry someday. But the NFL is a hard, cold business. He's not cutting it. 4. I want to see how this regime's draft picks play this year - that's how I'm judging McBeane. Today, Allen looked like he's on his way up. Edmunds was a beast. I didn't see enough of Phillips to make a judgement - I want to see his grade. Milano was all over the place. White didn't do much, but we know what he can do. Zay Jones was invisible. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flmike Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 Thankfully didn't watch this one. Very disappointed that they were so unprepared for Baltimore. I understand the lack of talent on offense and the inability to address it in the off-season due to salary cap hell, but it seems that the OC and DC lacked any imagination in dealing with that. Maybe best to root for an 0-fer season and clean up in the draft next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if rebuild is the right word when you don’t address certain glaring needs in the off-season. At this rate we will rebuild in 4 years.
