Not sure what planet you are living on? You don't think the goal of the Bills team the last two years wasn't going to the Super Bowl and winning it? Really? Surely, you can't be that foolish to perpetrate that position. Let me copy Beane's press conference comments after losing to KC. The infamous 13 second game. Beane was brutally honest about one thing. Just because you’re one game away from the Super Bowl, it doesn’t mean you are a “Super Bowl team.” While that might be pretty strong of a statement, there’s is no debating it: That is the truth. “I still think we need to be very honest with where we’re at. We’re still not a Super Bowl team. There’s one team happy at the end of the year. We made a great step last year and another step this year, but we still have to go further. The goal here is to win that game [the Super Bowl], and until we get in that game to compete for it, we can’t win it,” I'm just responding to your comment that you knew what their goal was the past three years. While I do agree with you the past two season their goal very likely was the SB, not so sure 3 years ago. That would have been a pretty big jump. And this past year while I certainly do think the SB was their goal in Sept and Oct, by the end of the seasons between the injuries, the Hamlin situation, blizzards, Kim, wonder if they still flt that way. Publicly and to the team itself would they state that, no. But privately did Beane in particular feel that way deep down. That their chance to win wasn't that high. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This year it was the Defensive Coordinator. Who will be McDermott's scapegoat next year? On to Offensive Coordinator?

You do realize that what you have done there, in that post, is precisely the scapegoating that you're whining about, right? Yeah, there will be a scapegoat. There absolutely always is. But it isn't McDermott who needs one. It's the folks like you on the boards who need someone to blame. Clearly you would like the scapegoat to be McDermott. But scapegoating is only a sign of poor thinking. It's fans - the ones who don't get it - eager to grab the pitchforks and head for the castle screaming for the head of Edmunds or Oliver or Frazier or McDermott, whoever today's patsy is that you've decided on with about a half second's thought.

Either way, Mahomes has 2 1st round skill players not zero offensive first rounders as you said. It’s not a ton, but it isn’t none. Josh Allen has ONLY played with Kelvin Benjamin as a 1st. That’s not some narrative. It is a fact. The Bills haven’t taken ANY swings at the top offensive talents entering the draft since Allen came into the league. Since the Allen pick the Bills have drafted 8 players in the 1st 2 rounds (Edmunds, Oliver, Ford, Epenesa, Rousseau, Basham, Elam, Cook). That’s not enough. Basham over Humphrey jumps out as they used the previous 2, top 2 round selections on DEs!! The Bengals drafted Burrow at 1. They then used the 1st pick of the 2nd round on Higgins. They came back the next year and used a top 5 pick on Chase & a 2nd round pick on Jackson Carmen. They still need to build the line but they gave him 2 elite rookie receivers and went to the Super Bowl & an AFC Championship since. The Bills need to give Josh, elite, cost-controlled help. Even if they are wrong, like they were with Ford, they still need to take the swings. An OL & WR in the first 2 rounds is ideal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The point he makes though that it is not as if KC has been stacking great weapons for Mahomes with premium picks is right. He inherited two elite weapons, one remains, and they nailed their offensive line rebuild with one high end FA, one big asset trade, a day 2 pick and a day 3 gamble on a day 2 talent with injury flags. Not that I disagree with you. The Bills absolutely have to priortise improvements on the offense. I was on this particular bus in the run up to FA and the draft last year too and I said coming out of it that a geriatric guard, a FA draft bust Tight End, a 2nd round change of pace back and a 5th round rookie receiver wasn't enough. So it proved. Meanwhile there were four more moderate to huge contracts on FA dlinemen and a pick on a 3rd round linebacker I had never even heard of (not saying I am the authority, being slightly facetious). As well as their 1st rounder spent on a raw, though high ceiling, corner. I will repeat my demands from last offseason - a legit outside receiver option to at worst be a viable backup to Gabe and Stef, ideally to compete for the #2 job; a vet guard that isn't on his last legs; some kind of legit TE2 option. That should be the minimum requirement. If we sign ANOTHER defensive tackle Free Agent to a decent contract I am bringing my garden gnome to Buffalo!

If you use the Mahomes example, they made the Brown trade. In terms of draft value it was maybe about the equivalent of the 40th-45th pick. It’s somewhere in that range. They used a 2nd on Humphrey. They used a 2nd on Sky Moore. They used a 1st on CEH. They signed Thuney to an $80M deal. They lost Tyreek (but got 5 picks including a 1&2 for him). They turned around and brought in Ju-Ju and MVS. They traded for Toney who wasn’t properly used in NY. It doesn’t mean that every move was right but they are using prime assets and big money to build that offense. The Bills are not. The Bills traded a 1 for Diggs. The Bills brought in 2 WRs off the streets. They took a “buy-low” shot on Crowder. They drafted a rotational RB in round 2 and signed a washed guard. I guess that the Morse signing would kind of qualify as “investing post-Josh pick.” It just isn’t nearly enough. KC hasn’t loaded up around Mahomes but still have used significantly more $ and prime assets than the Bills. If you look at a team like Philly, their asset allocation is that x 100.

I don't worry about next year or even think about it for that matter. what is it like to think so far ahead and make prophetic claims on what will happen? me thinks you just don't like McD and believe ridding of coaches is just to cover his ass. he is covering his ass and maybe he believes such changes are for the teams betterment. personally I'm not ready to give up on McD and I am looking forward to seeing how this next season goes with Dorsey in his second year and a defense without Frazier. I'm sure though you will likely disagree with my take. I'm not as prophetic about what the future holds but if the walls were/are closing in, it's on Beane, he has made some questionable moves along the way. he is also stating it'll be two years before they can get out of cap hell before having any breathing room to be able to make any big moves. meanwhile, not only are there demanding needs on the offense, WR and OL in particular but the defense as well still has and will have some holes to fill. he brought them close, just not close enough and if he is any kind of wizard he'll need to dig deep in to his bag of tricks to get them not only close, but over the top. all the while JA, whom by far was his greatest move, career is passing by. tough road ahead, time will tell.

The Bill had to trade up for Allen, Edmunds and (unfortunately) Ford and still didn't ever get as high as either of the two natural picks for Chase or Burrow. And yeah, you can make things look as they are not if you only look at the other teams best picks and several of your team's worst. It doesn't show anything about the Bills, though, only what you are desperate to show so you only look at limited pre-selected facts. The year they got Burrow and Higgins they had #1 and #33 and so on, while we had #54 and #86 as our two highest picks. You can argue that they also got Diggs for the 22nd pick, but though true, it doesn't support your argument about better use of picks. That was terrific use of the pick, but it's not surprising that strictly in terms of draft they did better than us with the #1 and #33 than we did with the #54 and #86.

Do you like disappointing playoff losses too? A Bills defense that can't stop a good quality playoff offense? A coaching staff that blows playoff games and clearly gets out coached? Whats the ultimate goal of the team Augie? Think macro not micro 23 hours ago, Thurman#1 said: Unfortunately, yeah, that's what people do today. They passively aggressively insult the other person while pretending to apologize while actually not doing so. Not me. Im not timid about calling out foolish posts. Including yours Mr. Thurman. Great thing is I know I get the same back in return. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My goal is to be entertained. I’ve been pretty successful. I hope to get a few more weeks of entertainment next season. It’s pretty simple, really. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The team goal of the players, coaches, and management certainly isn't to entertain fans. It's a by product of winning. The goal is winning the Super bowl. First, let's try to get there. While, your feelings are yours, I doubt most Bills fans are truly satisfied with being entertained. Weak response! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While, your feelings are yours, I doubt most Bills fans are truly satisfied with being entertained. Weak response! Weak response? Not at all, but I certainly don’t leave that to you to judge. The team has their goals (winning, which I clearly stated, but maybe not clearly enough for you), and we are not actually part of the team. A SB would be very entertaining. What you or I think doesn’t matter to the team, and at least I know that. If you think your ridiculously high standards make you a better fan, you are again mistaken. Yes, everybody wants to win the Super Bowl. Every year. But that’s not how it works. What do you do if your kid is top 5 in their class, but not valedictorian? I can live with that, and I’d be proud. At least I might have some nominal impact on my child, while we have no impact as “fans” living on the outside. Having goals in life is important, but pointless if you have zero impact on the outcome. A SB victory may be an awesome wish, but since you have no control over the outcome, it’s a senseless “goal”. This isn’t worth it. Have a nice life. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
