Why didn’t Brown just take this offer with us.  Ugghh, unless we didn’t offer at all.  We don’t his health details, but if he would be healthy, he would’ve been a better option than Sanders.  I don’t see this as an upgrade with Sanders.  The truth will come out eventually.  If we could’ve had him for $4 mil. There has to be something.

The Bills released Brown

Huh? His salary with the Bills was 9.5 mil. He wasn’t a FA

I was under the impression that he couldn’t play in Denver because of his health condition, could be an issue in that division.

He can play there

Stampede, I’ll defer to you brother as I didn’t hear he wasn’t made a pay cut offer.  Probably a sign his injury issues were worse than we thought.   I don’t what the Raiders are doing as they are shedding solid O Lineman.  That center was very good.  Surprised they released him.

 

Thanks Stampede.  Appreciate the clarification.

I know Nucc.  They can always go to a player and rework a contract.  It just tells me they didn’t have the desire.  At worst, they cut and resign lower.  They didn’t have an interest.  I thought before for cap reasons, but obviously not.

Agreed.  Unless they truly believe Brown wasn’t going to fully be himself after that injury, this makes no sense to me.  
 

Even on Brown and Allen’s relationship alone 

 

He's toast.

 

Older, smallish speed guy that isn't physical. And not a great route runner. 

 

Bills should have utilized McKenzie more in the playoffs. He couldn't have performed worse than Brown.

He struggled even when healthy to beat physical man coverage. If anything it just shows the Bills know what they're doing. 


Is this based off the Chiefs game, where they all struggled?  I’m not saying this to be combative, I’m not not remembering a game where he struggled against press that the entire offense wasn’t also struggling.  
 

To that point, the Chiefs were man handling our guys downfield and not getting called for it.  That is, until they played the golden boy

He said in an interview after he came back that he couldn't play in Denver due to his sickle cell trait. I remember this distinctly because it was the exact opposite of what his agent had said when he was a FA.

Both Chiefs games

Ravens last year (he "went off" this year because they directed lots of attention to Diggs and to Beasley)

Browns last year

 

The whole offense struggling because Beasley, McKenzie, and surprisingly Knox also struggle with this
