Bills have had a top offense for like the last few years. And Mahomes just won with an offense where only Kelce scares you.


I’d rather Allen have a top 3 OL in the league, along with Kelce, MVS, Juju, Toney, Moore etc., over what we gave him last year.

Pacheco, Juju, McKinnon, Hardman, Moore, their TE 2-4  are all pretty good weapons

It's mainly that Mahomes is constantly throwing short passes, especially to his RBs. That accounts for majority of his completions per game 

It has pissed me off for years that our O rarely does this. Rarely any screens or just nice easy completions,  Allen is too blame too but it seems it's way more the scheme

Nobody will ever call the Chiefs defense great, but they play well enough to win games in the playoffs. Can we say the same about the Bills defense in the playoffs. They aren't a soft defense like the Bills defense.

 

I've said this before.  The Bills D is a consistent performer but short on big plays.  Chiefs D is pretty much the opposite, but get big plays in big moments

I don't like Gesicki going to the Pats... He's always given us fits. 

 

Yeah i know the guy has flaws in his game (doesnt like to/can't block) but is a legit receiving threat.  I guess for the moment we're lucky that he has MacCorkle as a QB

Having the 2nd best interior DL in Chris Jones and elite edge in Clark certainly helped. 

The D with Von was awesome.  He frees up everybody on the DL. He'll have a massive impact on the d come playoff time. Hope Groot takes the next step in his game,  will make QBs lives miserable if we get a consistent pass rush with an elite secondary behind them

The Eagles have one of the best OL's in football. The Chiefs D held their own at the LOS. I don't think the Bills defense would have done the same. The Eagles probably run the ball down the Bills throats. While the Chiefs are known for their offense it's their defense that plays well enough to where they have 2 Lombardi trophies. The Bills defense usually chokes in big spots.

Not worried one bit.  Mac Jones is garbage 

 

I agree about Sack Jones, but I still don't like them having weapons that can catch his errant, wounded ducks.

Lol, he's literally one of the last players is be worried about

 

Well, there are others I'd be more worried about, sure; I just want the Pats to be the Drought Era Bills for 17+ years.

I think the other thing is,Spagnola is a game day coach.  He adjusts his D whereas it always seems like the Bills go in with an idea and never adjust.  IT SAYS RIGHT HERE THAT PLAYING SOFT ZONE 15 YARDS OFF THE LOS IS THE WAY TO BEAT THE BENGALS

Spags does a great job of keeping things exotic without losing the integrity of their system. We have been straight bend don't break. It's not enough.

Watching KC DL perform a stunt vs the Bills DL performing a stunt is an object lesson on doing a thing versus pretending to do a thing

Speaking of which do we have a DC yet or will McDermott be HC/DC.

 

Beane said they won't be bringing in an outside guy and Jordan Poyer actually slipped and said "McDermott is still a really great defensive coordinator, errr, I mean defensive-minded head coach."

 

McDermott is going to call the plays imo.

Basically the chiefs coaching staff/GM owns the bills and the rest of the league

Yes! And I’ve always blamed the players. Chris Jones and Frank Clark always step up their game in the playoffs. Frank Clark in particular may be a disappointment in the regular season but come playoffs he is dominating.

 

We don’t have anyone on defense that steps up. Maybe Taron Johnson? That’s why they went and got Von.

I think having Micah out really hurt as well on the back end. But the pass rush is still the issue. Von alone can't be the only guy who can get to the QB.

Gesicki to the Patriots on a 1 year deal up to $9 mil
Mariota to the Eagles on a 1 year $5mil up to $8mil

I think Gesicki would have been a perfect fit in Denver with the way Payton uses TE's like him. Jimmy Graham type of numbers.

He'll be used as a big slot receiver and probably have 900 receiving and 10 TDs for them 

His QB is McCorkle.......

Having Von on the field opens up opportunities for others though. Particularly Groot, who faces double teams when Von isn’t on the field. There are also other ways to get pressure, by being more aggressive with the blitz at key times. 

 

Not saying I wouldn’t be thrilled to add another pass rush threat, but we probably have bigger needs to fill.

So we’ve got Von and Davis pulling for King Henry… 

 

No idea how they’d fit that under the cap…

Trade would have to involve a player.    If you can trade Oliver and a 3rd for Henry you basically lose nothing in cap space.

We have bigger needs….but other than QB, there is no bigger need than pass rush.  If von doesn’t come back the same or if someone else gets injured, we’re in trouble.
 

Wouldn’t doubt it if Nolan Smith was our pick @ 27

Frank Clark is available! Leonard Floyd as well. I think a veteran pass rusher will be added. They’ll also re-sign Jordan Phillips.

No-  renegotiate his contract and possibly restructure others

I love Frank Clark. I always have. Floyd to me is a nickel player or more of a 3-4 edge. But he works as well. I think they draft an end somewhere.

I still don’t really see that happening due to his cost and the cost to get him, but it’s awesome when our players try to recruit guys.

I think that’s a good fit for Gesicki.  I liked the idea of bringing him here, but Gesicki wins with his length and jumping ability.  Touch passers like Fitz and Mccorkle are a better fit for him than Josh.  Guys that throw it up there even when he doesn’t look open.  Josh does better with guys like Diggs and Beasley who create a lot of separation and Josh uses his Howitzer to get the ball to them.  Probably why the Bills preferred Harty.
