WhoTom Posted September 5, 2022 Share Posted September 5, 2022 Quote Ian Rapoport | NFL insider for NFL Network "Josh Allen, he's got nothing to do in terms of reaching another level. The offense might be a little different this year under Ken Dorsey, who I think is going to do an incredible job. Josh needs to do exactly what he's done, seriously. I don't think he has to do anything different to get this team to the next level, he's already an MVP candidate. He's a great guy and a great leader. I think he should do everything exactly the same as he has been and they'll be just fine." I think nearly everyone agrees with that ... except Josh, who continues to strive for improvement. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billybrew1 Posted September 5, 2022 Share Posted September 5, 2022 Most of my doubts are related to injuries along the OL and Tre White not coming back like a superstar…. I guess we could be totally wrong about the DL too but I doubt it. I think Beane got the DL right in his second attempt…. Ed is ready and is going to have a big game vs. LA…. Either that, or other DL are going to have a big game. It completely depends on who the rams decide on who to double most plays…. I think both DaQuon and Settle can make the rams pay for doubling Ed. So can Groot, AJ, Boogie and Von…. I think we have a good line. Plus we have Tremaine Edmunds playing for a contract on national TV…. Watch Tremaine this year!

Utah John Posted September 5, 2022 Share Posted September 5, 2022 Kyle Williams and Lorax. Those two veterans, near the ends of their careers, instilled the winning attitude and culture. Josh, of course. He took the team on his back. And when the league saw what he and the team could do, the FA parade began. Without Josh, we'd still get the dregs FAs. Take away any other players, and the Bills are still excellent, just maybe in different ways. Take away any of those players, and the magic is still not happening. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KDIGGZ Posted September 5, 2022 Share Posted September 5, 2022 Are the Bills a Super Bowl contender if Josh Allen is Sam Darnold? Or worse, Josh Rosen or Mason Rudolph? They hit on a once in a lifetime draft pick when every single analytic said not to draft him.

Interesting take from Rappaport. Reads to me like "stop getting better" or "you've already reached your ceiling buddy" I get what he's getting at. It's a shot at McDermott and the rest of the team, but I believe Allen has a higher gear than what he's shown.

Kupp is their offense. Diggs is a part of a whole (granted a big part) but with the emergence of Gabe and Knox, I think there is going to be more distribution of the ball to other places other than Diggs (This doesn't even add the factors of Mckenzie, Crowder and the RBs). 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This isn't actually what's going on with the twitter page though. You can find the same behavior on countless Buffalo Sabres page tweets in 2018, I've complained about the same thing on hockey message boards for years.

stuvian Posted September 6, 2022 Share Posted September 6, 2022 signing big names like Diggs, Morse and Miller is very exciting and points to a win now mindset.

mjt328 Posted September 6, 2022 Share Posted September 6, 2022 For nearly two decades, we witnessed all the mistakes a GM/Head Coach can make when trying to rebuild. So it's easy to see what Brandon Beane/Sean McDermott did differently, and how it ended up leading to their current success. Doug Whaley was a strong evaluator of talent. But he was never on the same page with his head coach (neither Doug Marrone or Rex Ryan), and the disconnect was frequently apparent. There is a big difference in collecting talent, and building a cohesive team with a singular vision. It is clear that Beane and McDermott are unified with each move the team makes. Buddy Nix lacked urgency and strategy in building the roster (especially about the Quarterback position). His tendency was to sit on his hands and watch... ultimately forcing him to make an unwise decision out of panic. We saw it with Mario Williams in free agency. We saw it with EJ Manuel in the draft. In contrast, this regime has no problem make bold and calculated moves. Marv Levy was too old school, believing he could build a winning roster almost entirely through the draft. The problem was, his drafting was absolutely terrible. And even though he ignored the big-ticket free agents every offseason, he still managed to overspend on the second-wave guys. Tom Donahoe was aggressive to a fault. His time here was splash move, after splash move. It was exciting and our team was full of talent. But it never quite came together on the field. By the end of his tenure here, the Bills were in terrible cap trouble. We also had very little young talent, since many of our draft picks were traded away for veteran players.

Ok, I just listened to the clip despite my better judgment. He didn't say anything! He said Josh Allen has to throw the ball to Stefon Diggs for the Bills to be successful -- no duh. I don't think he even knows who else is on the Bills' roster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
