Ah, Typo... I think Miller will get 35-40 sacks in the next four years and be paid over $1 million per sack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Logic Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 7 minutes ago, hondo in seattle said: I gotta admit, the locker room leadership stuff does excite me. Showing my age... I remember when we signed Phil Villipiano - when he was past his prime - to help build a winning culture. I think it’s a very real and underrated part of this signing. Adding a two time Super Bowl champion, first ballot Hall of Famer who is famously generous about teaching younger pass rushers the tools of the trade to this locker room…it’s gonna do wonders for our young trio of edge guys. I also think he’ll help Oliver tremendously, as he apparently did with Aaron Donald. And that’s all just from a teaching standpoint. There’s also the effect that Miller being on the field will have in freeing up the Olivers and Rousseaus of the world. I think Miller’s impact on the defense overall will be similar to the impact Diggs had on the offense. Big steps forward. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you think he’s that much more a difference maker, yeah ok. Still digesting this. Jerry Hughes ranked 118th in DE run PFF grade. Miller was 2nd. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stank_Nasty Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 (edited) 2 hours ago, Logic said: I was curious about the level of production of elite pass rushers at age 33 and beyond, so I went and looked at the stats of Bruce Smith and Reggie White. At ages 33-37, Bruce had 13.5, 14, 10, 7, and 10 sacks. At age 33-37, Reggie White had 8, 12, 8.5, 11, and 16 sacks. You may say “but Logic, those are two Hall of Famers, of course they still produced!”. To which I would say that Von Miller will be a first ballot Hall of Famer, too, and that was why I looked at those two guys. I wanted to see how some elite, HOF edge rushers produced as they aged. I’m not saying Miller is going to be as productive as those guys, but it is not out of the realm of possibility, either. After reading this the 2 names that immediately came to mind for me when i thought of mercenary pass rushers that did it forever were Doleman and Greene. Looked them up. Sure enough they're also perfect examples of instant pass rush for any team they went to late in their careers.... Chris Doleman ages 33-38... 7, 9, 11, 12, 15, 8.... for 3 different squads Kevin Greene ages 33-37... 9, 14, 10, 15, 12... 4 different stints. There might be other examples beyond that but those were the first 2 that immediately came to my mind.

PatsFanNH Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 3 hours ago, Stank_Nasty said: bro... it was the first time in over 15 years a team took the lead with 13 seconds or less and lost that game. and i'd bet LARGE money that mahomes never pulls something like that off again... so stop it. you're wrong. you could even blame it on horrible situational football from our coaches. but the bills ROSTER was superbowl caliber and showed it. Of course the Bills are SB Caliber. I’m sorry the D never should give up that many yards in less than 13 seconds.. I mean I was ticked when the Pats D gave up a FG with 30 seconds left and 2 time outs to dallas. It just shouldn’t happen.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not much you can do then, I guess one of the D players possibly could have spoke up maybe and questioned the play calls? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patrick Duffy Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 (edited) Which "Big Time/ Big name" F/A signing is bigger or more exciting, Von Miller or Mario Williams?

IMO its Miller just due to the implications and expectations that come with it because of where this team is at as opposed to where we were when williams came aboard. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wasn't the final piece to a playoff team, let alone a Super Bowl favorite. The lead-up was completely different, too: we were all sitting here for days pressing F5 to see if Williams had signed, because the doofuses in charge were so public about their courtship of him. And we were thirsty just to have one "big name" on the roster. None of us had any idea that we were in on Miller, and if anyone says they did, they're lying. Look at that roster again. What a difference ten years makes. Edited March 17, 2022 by BRH 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember when we signed Phil Villipiano - when he was past his prime - to help build a winning culture. I don't think you can discount leadership. A game is often won by the slimmest of margins. Leadership, team building, and believing in yourself and your teammates is essential. This is where coach McD seems to excell. The xs and os not so much. Miller certainly will bring a winning attitude and belief into the locker room and on the field. I just hope it's enough to vault the Bills to the top! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Williams signing gave fans a feeling of hope after there was none for so long possibly made it a little bit bigger than maybe it should have been. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
