results are skewed because they usually happen on teams that have no talent, but it's an "attempt" to salvage something.  Hard to make much a difference when your players can't play well tho.  Likely different results on teams with talent that need a kick in the ass.


You are correct. Teams that are winning don’t hold players-only meetings.

That was one game. Offense has been doing it all season 

Slow deterioration.  One of the worst 3rd down Defenses in the league. Down our two starting DTs, all-pro LB and CB, this D keeps nobody up at night. Blitz after blitz was a fail and gobs of yardage given up at key moments. We made Mac look like Burrow. Hope Oliver can play Thursday.

If there was a players only meeting this morning, wouldn't it be confirmed by now? Sounds like a false alarm.

Why did I just come in here to see if we knew anything about their secret meeting lol as if were ever going to know? But it was 9 pages long so......

The fact NO ONE told an agent that leaked anything is telling. Either this is super serious and everyone was sworn to secrecy or it’s a lie. 
 

This team is big mad about something. 

 

In McD's presser today, one of the reporters brought up that he heard about the possibility of a players only meeting. McD didn't confirm either way but it was brought up by one of the reporters.

 

Here's the link to the presser. It's pretty much at the eight minute mark - https://www.buffalobills.com/video/sean-mcdermott-everything-in-moderation-buffalo-bills

If true, hopefully it’s a proactive approach that brings the team together.

 

You can right this ship just like you did in 2021.

 

It started with the Bucs in 2021, it can start with them again this year. Go Bills!

About ***** time.

I was wondering when we'd see this headline.

He didn't give his name like the reporters usually do but his voice did sound familiar. If I had to guess the voice, I want to say John Wawrow, but I could be wrong about that.

Was not Wawrow.  You would have heard 5 seconds of stuttering first

Duh...teams with talent that need a kick in the ass do too.

 

When you haven't lost a game in almost 2 years by more than 5 points and have the best record in the NFL since 2020, I think that says which side of the ledger you fall on.

 

There are a lot of doom and gloomers around this board that are going to look stupid like they have every year by the end of the season.

2 time SuperBowl champion, SuperBowl MVP, future HOFer, and a guy who has worked his @ss off to join his brothers on the field after an ACL tear less than a year ago... yeah he deserves no respect from his teammates.


I really try to remain civil here, but your take is ridiculous.

You forgot von Miller who took up the money we could have used on a devante Adam's/aj brown caliber wr opposite Diggs..another blunder by our defense minded hc who is suited for the nfl 20 years ago

What does that have to do with the fact that Von has the leadership and respect of his team mates to call this kind of meeting? Nothing.

 

He earned the C on his jersey for a reason, and it's not because he cashed his checks, packed it in, and took his time coming back. It's because he worked his tail off to come back from a torn ACL in 10 God damned months! What's wrong with some of you guys?

 

Imean, I know "fan" is short for "fanatic." But some of you guys air your strange grievances in the most illogical ways.

The von signing is a major blunder whether he worked his ass off to get back or not...horrible signing

Weird... I can't believe these guys are able to keep their players only meeting this confidential... but here we are... 20 hours and ten pages later!

If Von and Josh are really holding a player's only meeting, I assume they feel the main problem is with the players: effort, execution, etc.  It'll be interesting to see if those things get better.

 

Though clearly the coaching needs to get better, too.  The Bills do not have the best roster in the league, but they do have more talent than their 4-3 record indicates.

 

Maybe the team is missing Frazier and Daboll more than people expected.

What time are the Sabres having their players only meeting tomorrow? 

 

They don't need one.  They are transitioning to playing a more team defense oriented game and currently haven't figured out how to do that without greatly reducing their transition and scoring opportunities, but they will.  Defense has looked much better the last 2 games and PK has been great all year. PP is not good right now only converting at 6% but they are getting chances...those will start going in soon.  Team has far too much talent for that to take too long before they figure it out.

And that would be?

The first rule of 'players only' meetings is you do not talk about 'players only' meetings? 🤔

They're an enigma, wrapped in a riddle.  And if leaked about on social media, they probably never happened / never will happen.

Not necessarily the "main" problem. But they recognize they can do better and it is the only thing within their control. They cant fix/change/control the coaches, so they have to tighten up and do what they can as players.

 

It would certainly help if the players got their ***** together. We'll see how the game plan goes after that...

Reports from the players after the meeting. Guess there was some confusion over who was bring what drinks and snacks to Friday off day golf tourney. All cleared up now and they are feeling good and excited for some relaxing time on the links. Just got to get this Thursday thing over with first.

This fanbase has turned into he pats fan base, the Philly fanbase and the cowboys fanbase, and quickly approaching the raiders fanbase. 

You mean expecting championships and excellence, instead of being content that the draught is over?

Hope it works, but usually calling a players only meeting is a bad sign lmao

Depends. They called the meeting for obvious reasons but this could be a moment where they turn the table

 

the coaches can only do so much, the leaders have to step up

Probably wondering how they can dump Dorsey without actually coming out and saying it

It’s not 100% on Dorsey. This is a tired and lazy take. Execution is terrible all over the place. Oline. Dline. QB. Wrs. Lots of blame it’s not one persons fault here.
