Instead of drafting one of the great young WRs, he picked Boogie Basham and Kaiir Elam. Instead of picking up a great WR as a FA, he signed Von Miller to a huge contract (which sounded great for a while, but geez he's not very good now), and spent a fortune on Dawson Knox before drafting Kincaid. It's like there's no plan, no philosophy about holding together a team and continuing to make it better. 1 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is the team leader--- pouts like a little child when the going is tough. Yeah he's not handling the adversity well Wish he'd just get pissed out and stop with this low normal mumbo jumbo Throw some chairs Destroy some tvs in the locker room Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is not abnormal, especially considering neither of these guys are huge talkers. If you're not required to interview, who really wants to sit there and talk to a reporter when they're pissed after a loss? When you’re a captain like Gabe Davis? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Physically, the best QB in 5his franchises history. I still have faith in him but he is no Jim Kelly.While he is more talented than Kelly, Kelly was the ultimate leader. Sometimes Kelly was too abrasive but the guy oozed toughness and the will to win. Josh is out QB and needs that edge. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beane had a long-term plan to turn the Bills into a dynasty, which required very strong drafting and using draft picks as inexpensive roster players. And required NOT going out and blowing money on a FA. The reason they went out and got Miller and spent all that money on him, was the 13 seconds game, when the current pass rushers couldn't get to Mahomes. (And that loss is on McDermott.) So McDermott wanted a closer to rush the passer. So Beane broke his own rule and paid Miller. But even if Miller was still playing well, Beane's plan still fell apart because of his very spotty record drafting players. The reason the Bills' window is closing (already has closed, possibly) isn't Josh's contract. It's dozens of small, bad decisions and a few whoppers. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dablitzkrieg Posted November 14, 2023 Share Posted November 14, 2023 Zero accountability. Captains not talking after the game, McD deflection, Hollywood Allen pouting with one word unthoughtful answers after the game. We have a slew of babies and mentally weak players. For a coach that is reportedly so detail oriented, preaches culture and "love", this is the exact opposite. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course he benches players when they fumble. He always has. And yes, it's idiotic. 1 hour ago, Virgil said: Davis is fools gold to me. Looks the part, makes Josh think he can hit him for big plays, then drops, runs the wrong route, or the Db beats him to the ball. I’m over him So is the team; no way he's back. Then again, hopefully the regime is gone too, so who knows how this plays out. It's going to get worse (this year) before it gets better. We haven't seen rock bottom yet, not by a long shot.

BRH Posted November 15, 2023 Share Posted November 15, 2023 19 hours ago, letsgoteam said: When reflecting last year after the Vikings debacle, I became numb to all the new ways they find to lose. During this time, I also learned to stop hating or caring about players, especially opposing players (the Brady's, the chiefs, etc) Almost every player will have more money then I can even dream of (even the minimum salary of 750K is more then a decades worth of work for me). They win, no matter what happens or there career goes to shambles even if they have a career ending injury, etc. They have the money and can laugh at the little people anytime they want. They win, the only victory a normal person can have is just tune it all out and not waste your energy on people who have won in life with $. They also know that most fans don't give a ***** about them as human beings. And NFL contracts aren't guaranteed for most players, so if they get hurt they get bupkes -- and this is a sport with a 100% injury rate. And not for nothing, but the amount of work and dedication it takes to make it for even one second as a professional athlete (let alone become a starter or get a second contract) is beyond most people's comprehension. So I don't blame them for not giving a ***** about the fans either. They're not doing it for us. And here's a dirty secret: they never were. They do want to win, though. Most competitive athletes are just like that. But they want to win for themselves, not for us. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He "claps"........keeping his hands moving at the catch point.........because his timing at the catch point is a tick off so he can't cushion the point of the ball into a soft landing like most professional WR's. It's who he is and it's the NFL so surely he knows it's weird that he's gotten that far with high school level hands. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
