Obviously, he has many critics, but I’ve always liked him and he makes points. *Alarming 7 Blowout loses *Young QBs do better with Offensive HC *Fish go from 7-9 pretenders to WC consideration w/Rosen *Pats* great Draft *Jets did much to improve I’m good with this analysis as we all (AFCE) play a comparatively favorable schedule and no Bills fans really know what we have or who we are yet. We’re putting a lot of stock and hope that all the pieces will fit nicely very quickly. If not, and it’s unreasonable to expect it, we’re going to lose games we likely should and could have won, while learning ‘who we are’. I still think 10 wins is possible, but it’ll take at least 3 Division wins to accomplish. https://www.newyorkupstate.com/buffalo-bills/2019/05/buffalo-bills-still-miles-away-from-competing-in-afc-says-colin-cowherd.html 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

zonabb 271 Posted May 3, 2019 I have a theory about the national media and guys like this turd, who I haven't heard in years. Not an enlightening one or even a leap but many that continually beat up on the Bills, and it's well-deserved, recognize that these hot takes are click and view bait because this market is tuned into the media, regularly pulls high ratings for viewership and is highly engaged so it's one way to get attention. So glowing supports the bigger markets but has a hot take on the Bills and basically covers all his bases. Has he even been positive on the Bills? Honest question. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wagon127 432 Posted May 3, 2019 They keep saying the Jets did so much to improve, we didn't??? I think we will finish better then the jets. If I was forced to put money on it, I would say at best the Jets have no more then 1 win better than us. The dolphins are definitely finishing last in the division...... 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think more importantly, he is a among a set of idiots who 1) made up their mind way too early that Josh Allen sucks and 2) don't like reevaluating their premises, but prefer to stick to their biases. Cowherd is 100% useless as an analyst. 6 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chuck Wagon 1,541 Posted May 3, 2019 The Jets feel like a classic "FA Splash" that disappoints team. They certainly have some guys in their D front 7, but have glaring holes on the roster at CB and on the Oline and did little to nothing to address them. Adding a high priced RB and LB sure feels like flash over substance in 2019. Dolphins? Come on. I'm firmly in the pump the brakes camp on the Bills kool-aide, but if we finish well outside the playoffs the Jets and the Dolphins aren't going to be the reason why. 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

D521646 100 Posted May 3, 2019 Boy, another national media guy down on the Bills.. Wait, isn't he always down on the Bills? Hard to take him seriously though when he thinks Miami comes out the AFCE as the WC.. I mean, I hate the Jets, but they got objectively much better this year, similar to us. Jets have a serious OL issue, something we had until FA and the draft.. Miami got on impact player, ONE, the rest of their draft either don't make the team, or are role players. Bills got at least 3 starters, and by my count 3 role players, might have a couple on the PS, but overall our draft was pretty great. I see us conservatively as a 10 win team, 11, if we manage to beat the Pats once, Jets once, and Fins 2. Fins season will come down to which Fitzy they get starting the season..

KayAdams 637 Posted May 3, 2019 Here's all you need to know in order to understand Colin Cowherd's football opinions: NYC: #1 metro area in population Miami: #7 metro area in population Boston: #10 metro area in population Buffalo: #50 metro area in population He has openly expressed his disdain for blue collar people and small cities and feels that the NFL would be a better league if the Buffalo Bills had moved to Toronto. 8 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
colin 187 Posted May 3, 2019 he's good at what he does, heck he has us talking about him, but he is a fan like someone pointed out above, not a pro. to me, Rosen sucks. he's physically weak and has attitude problems on top of that. he was developed really early in his life as a QB, so he is skilled, but i don't think he will deliver the goods. i do suspect, assuming miami put some talent around him, that early in the season he may play a couple good games, but when the cold comes and he gets worn down over a season, he will fold. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dave in Bluffton 16 Posted May 3, 2019 I'd rather think about blow out losses with Josh at QB. Don't remember offhand, but most of his losses last year were close games. I like under the radar Bills. Hopefully we can get a good start to the season and roll on. It isn't impossible to win the division if we play like we did in 2017 and catch a few breaks. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BarleyNY 575 Posted May 3, 2019 Cowherd is a loud mouthed naysayer. He throws cold water on teams that have real hope of improving. He pumps up the obvious and big market teams. I’m sure it’s a schtick. He might be perfectly nice or a total tool in real life. No idea. Either way, view everything he says through that lens. Him dogging the Bills just means we are looking like we could really improve. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
