There's other articles that literally say Josh Allen watched film with the coaches while talking perspective prospects 

 

He certainly saw lad McConkey Xavier worthy and all of them

 

Maybe a trade up wasn't possible.. not everybody wants to trade with you

No one is denying Allen's involvement in picking a WR.  That's a given. What some of us dispute is the notion that Allen worked hard to get Coleman picked over other options.  The argument that we needed someone like Coleman was sound and I'm sure Bean & Allen talked about the need for a big bodied boundary receiver who could turn 50/50 catches into 80/20 ones.  

 

My disagreement is with the idea that Allen exerted pressure on the Bills scouting staff and GM to take a guy that they didn't really want and they drafted Coleman to keep Allen happy. IMO the evidence is that Bean & Co. selected the guy that they believed best fit their need within the framework of the draft capital they were willing to part with.  Allen was asked to sign off and he did.

 

As an aside, I'm not ready to write Coleman off yet.  I've seen enough flashes over the last 20 games to believe that he might still develop into the high end WR they thought they drafted.  I have this feeling that Coleman's story is not done yet.

If fan polls on TBD ever influence how a OBD employee seriously feels about their job performance, that person needs to be fired immediately 

It’s a barometer on Bills Mafia’s opinion of Joe Brady.  Terry Pegula knows the Bills play for Bills Mafia.
 

McD is not happy about our one dimensional offense.  I’m sure Terry isn’t happy with Bills passing game. 
 

So Brady can hide his head under the bed, but the pressure is mounting

I'll be at the game.  Despite my somewhat hyperbolic post, I think it’s right in line with what almost everyone is seeing and thinking.   I dont expect them to beat the Chiefs.   I hope they do, but hope isnt a plan. 

All valid points.

 

i know ed oliver is s bummer but  look at the positives.

 

1) well rested bills team after an easy game post bye week.

2) home feild

3) kc on a short week, see how many injuries they get tonight it how they perform,

 

Right now i know bills are a slight underdog but i csll this game a toss up.  4 weeks ago thr bills were the best team in the afc and shirts domination was over.
