Yep, 15 yard penalty for roughing the passer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. But you know what's worse, much worse, obsessing over something that can't be changed. How long are some Bills fans going to cry into their beers over not drafting Mahomes? It's been freaking THREE YEARS. And the Bills weren't the only team to pass on Mahomes. Edited January 19, 2020 by CincyBillsFan 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to PFF, Mahomes isn't even the best QB on the field. That, in and of itself, should tell you how utterly worthless PFF is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we’re all afraid he won’t pan out - especially since we could have snagged Metcalf with that pick. Look what happened with Lawson. Took a few years, but now we’re all hoping they find a way to keep him here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobbRiddick Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 2 minutes ago, Elite Poster said: The same people that bitched about TJ Graham over Wilson, Troupe over Gronk, Watkins over Mack etc, won't let ANYONE mention a blunder made by THIS organization. McBeane have done well, but let's cut the oversensitive crap. And what about the 26 teams that passed on an all pro CB before the Bills had the smarts to take him? Sure, CB isn't as sexy as QB but the point is every year great players are passed on by multiple teams. Sometimes we get them, sometimes we pass on them too. If you constantly spend your time bitching about the ones we missed that's all you'll ever think about. And anyway, so much more goes into the success of a player than his talent, like his situation, supporting cast, coach, the way he's handled early on. There are busts out there who would be great if they had landed in other places, and greats who would have been average in a different set of circumstances. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With a new coach, on the job for a handful of months, a lame duck GM in place, and not knowing what you had as a team, the Bills were in no position to draft a QB early in that draft. Once Beane was in place and they saw the team they had, they knew what they needed in a QB. The timing was just not right for Mahomes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People seem to forget that Allen was drafted one later than Mahomes and the Bills had to replace NINE of the offensive starters on this team during the timeframe. While Mahomes was grandfathered into Kelce, Hill, Hunt (before his crap) and Reid calling plays. While Allen was grandfathered into an aging McCoy. How these people seem to forget these FACTS are mind boggling to me. 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This isn't putting the Bills' coaching staff in a positive light. If McDermott can't hire an OC who can build around Mahomes or Jackson, then he isn't a good head coach. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
