C.Biscuit97 Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 Guy praises team that is paying him millions!!! ? I will say any team is a huge improvement after the Washington R words. What a joke franchise. I will say Norman needs to look in the mirror more and realize that he would have enjoyed if more if he played better. that said, it’s a great low risk, high upside pick up. 10 minutes ago, 17islongenough said: It's crazy how the hire of two just people changes everything.

jwhit34 Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 In the movie, Remember The Titans, Julius Campbell says to Gary Bertier, "Attitude reflects leadership." That has been true with the Bills forever, it was great in Levy/Polian era, and finally after the drought years it is positive in the McDermott/Beane era. Helps to have good players too. Helps to have leaders who know how to evaluate players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He doesnt need to talk about how the Perception of the Bills have changed since he has come in the league. You do start to hear more and more of that from players. Beasley also talked the new perception of the Bills when he came here. I think more and more players are going to sign with Buffalo as years go on because it really does seem that player perception of the organization has shifted. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anybody can miss on a QB in the draft so even if Allen isn’t The Guy (and I am optimistic that he will be), I’d extend Beane too based on the overall body of work. Look, we sure seem to be trending in the right direction, I want to keep that rolling! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

machine gun kelly Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 I’m hopeful Norman comes back to even 85% of what he was in Carolina. He’ll be used right, he knows the scheme, and McD was able to get the most out of him before. It was nice reading his comments, and I’m bettering the Pegulas do extend Beane and McD, but maybe are just waiting until the end of 2020. They are both under contract until the end of 2021, and if we weren’t in the pandemic probably would have been extended now. Like the rest of the world, the Pegulas as going to take a hit with this pandemic for all of their businesses which is probably the only reason they are waiting one last year before they extend them. I don’t see the Pegulas ever letting this tandem go as they have done too much for this team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreggTX Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 I know it's highly unlikely, but if this guy returns to all-pro form, our D could be elite. I would advise caution on betting the farm on the DT's, though. The backups are backups for a reason and Oliver & Phillips are still unproven. I really hope those two and Epenesa turn out great.

I think McDermott has proven himself as a coach if not a game manager. Beane is still counting on his top picks to emerge. Allen has a long way to go. Edmunds is overrated and Ford still looks lost. Much of our success as well as Beane's reputation depends on those 3 guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually he doesn't need to talk at all. All most Bills fans want him to do is play the game with skill and effort. His mouth has always been bigger than his game. He has 2 strikes on him now and his mouth cannot save him. He hasn't made this team better yet, frankly he has not made the starting team yet. Josh N should STFU and play ball.
