Special K Posted September 10, 2022 Share Posted September 10, 2022 I know it is hard to compare between two different sports, but I compare the Bills signing of Von Miller to the Warriors signing of Kevin Durant. In both cases, a team with a huge star player (Steph Curry, Josh Allen), adds a highly talented star player to make a great team nearly unstoppable. I know the Warriors had already won a Championship before signing Durant, but they won 2 in a row with him in dominating fashion and would have won a third if Durant did not get hurt...hopefully the Bills can follow this trajectory and lift a couple of Lombardi trophies in the next couple of years!!

GreggTX Posted September 10, 2022 Share Posted September 10, 2022 I'd also compare deals like the one that brought Cornelius Bennett to us and the recent deal to acquire Diggs too. If we win the SB, the Miller/Diggs acquisions will rank right up there with the acquisition of our HOF'ers, Josh, Diggs and Miller. Signing Mario was big too, but we never even got to the playoffs when he was here. Too bad we had no QB then or Mario would have a SB ring. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rigotz Posted September 10, 2022 Share Posted September 10, 2022 I really can’t stand comparisons between two different sports. There are 5 guys on the court in Basketball … one guy has way more impact on every game than in Football outside of the QB position. You can literally win a championship with just two incredible guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thoughts?? While not the perfect comparison as you’ve acknowledged, that same thought actually crossed my mind last night too. Definitely can see the similarities. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

without a drought Posted September 10, 2022 Share Posted September 10, 2022 (edited) I was thinking more of Iron Maiden switching to Bruce Dickenson, I still like their first 2 albums with Paul Di'Anno the best, but Bruce brought the band to a new level.

Ethan in Cleveland Posted September 10, 2022 Share Posted September 10, 2022 Interesting topic. In terms of star status and a FA signing, it seems closest to Mario Williams. I however immediately thought of Bryce Paup and the impact he had on the defense. He played OLB in a 3-4, but would likely be a 4-3 DE today. Let's hope Miller can generate a season like Paup had in 1995 also his first with the Bills. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
