Reggie White played a long time, too.

 

Miller could be good for years.  I'm seeing opposing fans rationalize this by trying to ridicule paying so much to an "old" player - but with our other additions to the line, EVERYONE on D is better today. Our defense will be a terror - a true #1 D in the league.

 

Julius Peppers 38.  He'll likely be spent by 35, but that's after the 3 years.  No worries

Hey guys, sorry to Debbie Down this celebration, but I've got a bit of bad news.  

 

Upon hearing of the Miller signing, I immediately rejoiced, jumping up and down, ran outside, stripped naked and began running down the street.  Unfortunately, I'm not in the best shape, and after about 30 yards or so, my heart gave out on me, and I collapsed right on my street.  I was pronounced dead about 46 minutes ago.  That was the bad news.  The good news is I'm happy to report they have wifi up here In heaven, so I'll be cheering our Bills on LITERALLY in spirit!!

 

Go Bills!!!  Beane is an effing wizard!!!  Let's get this Lombardi trophy dammit!!

 

I'm harder than a 6 pound block of ice in Siberia in a snowstorm with minus 12 degree temps and wind gusts of 29 mph...

He's one of the best pass rushers of the last 20 years, and is still playing at a high level.

 

You might be missing that part.

 

You don't give a 33 yr old way past him prime a 6 year contract. No way no how! A 2 or 3 year contract absolutely. This will come back to hurt us. Hopefully, he can get us a Super Bowl before his legs fall off.

Josh will have us playing with large leads and Von Miller will be able to just tee off. This should allow him to flourish, the corners will benefit and Rousseau and Basham will most likely learn a few things to improve their game.

And Miller will be platooned, like everyone else, so he won't have to carry the team.

Try reading practically every other post in the thread, where it say's it's basically a 3-year $17.6M/year deal.  :rolleyes:

Where are people getting he’s way past his prime lol not to mention it likely only is a 3 year contract so this is a pretty odd post

It's not a 6 year contract.

Would you be saying the same thing if we got 2 Lombardi trophies?

Of course not. My issue is the contract. You really think he's going have anything left in year 3, 4, 5, and 6? The Bills brass made a terrible financial decision long term. Chandler Jones was a much better asset.

Don’t waste your time talking football 101 with that one.  He really thinks this is a 6 year 120M contract

He’s not going to be on the team in year 4, 5 or 6!!!!!!! mcfly GIF
It’s the same exact deal

as Chandler Jones and we don’t run the same system as Gus Bradley. We didn’t want to come to Buffalo. He’s his choice

The contract is designed specifically with that in mind lol the extra years are to help the bills by giving them wiggle room for cap hits and whatnot…both sides know he likely will not play that long

It's the same contract as Chandler Jones but with cap pushed back. So 2 years from now there will be a high cap hit but there ways to work around it. Josh Allen has huge base salaries. The easiest way to clear cap in 2024 and 2025 will be to convert those base salaries to bonus cash. Plus the TV money will boost the cap a lot.

 

In other words don't worry about the cap numbers.

You really need to understand the way the contract is structured. It isn’t a 6 year $120 mil guaranteed contract. You actually are proving the point it is a very good deal.
