hasn’t worked, almost worse. Our scouts or Bean are awful.

not a bad thought as many starters have a good relationship with their backups, but the qb coach and/or Mitch should be doing this, imo.

simply put, Bean has done disastrously in building the OL and DL. "But he did this and that," yeah, well, he spent it and drafted it on the wrong players. That's a bad job. Perhaps a "rebuilding" team like the Lions have a player on one of the lines we could trade for?

wow, this reeks of desperation like when we gave Fitz the huge extension.

The OP actually has a fantastic idea. Question: who would we hire as such a consultant? Second question: we would need someone to help Bean with assessing draft talent in the 2nd round.

well, if they don't want it to be the Josh Allen show 24X7 perhaps the OL and DL could stop being seives, and the RBs could actually be competient, then again, Daboll can't call an offensive series. bad for us. KC is an actual running back away from having a dominant run game as well. They have the OL, mostly because they drafted Humphry, and we, well, drafted Basham.

where are the good draft picks beyond Allen. I'll wait. Bean has been below average. I'm not expecting him to bat 1,000, I'm expecting competency, not a "throw various picks at DEs and hope one sticks" approach while ignoring the OL and RB position.

hiring daboll is a bust

I stayed the whole game. Just an unreal disaster to watch. Felt like the drought years.

Both. Get a tougher roster and a dome.

And they are 100 percent correct. The FO strategy was a joke. Draft a bunch of DE and hope one works out. That is not what a competent FO does. And they missed on Humphrey by taking Basham. The OL and DL’s are soft and we have no running game. No team has won a SB with that combo regardless of who is at qb. but it was not one game. we have not stopped the run against good running teams all year or last year. We have not beaten a team with a winning record this year save KC during its mid-season meltdown that is now corrected. KC has the players to make such correction and a stout OL and DL. Not us.

don’t know why you trust him. He drafted Ford (trading up), traded up for Edmunds, and drafted Basham last year over all-pro Creed Humphry. Yeah, this guy can’t Id elite or above average ol or dl talent.

great, unbridled optimisim. It’s nice to see, but I bet we felt the same way with Kelly, or the Dolphins with Marino, or the Marvin Lewis Bengals with Dalton. This team is a better comp to the latter two right now than even the 90 Bills. We are deficient in many key positions (ol, dl, rb).

yeah, highest pressure rate playing terrible qb’s. Kind of like our number 1 D ranking. A hilarious facade.

well, stopping Kamara and Ingram will be interesting. At least the Saints D is not great on paper (then again, neither is the Jags).

its like they thought they could win with good wb and wr play and average talent on the lines and at RB. That has never worked.

AZ won today. The Steelers went 8-8 in a year without Ben starting Duck Hodges.

Well, lets see. KC has an OL and a few dominant D lineman. No one left KC for dead. Also, they have won a SB. The Bills have yet to beat a team with a winning record this year.

draft better. evaluate talent better. , we have been awful in these areas. we lack the talent to compete or depth.

nor with Bean, horrid drafts. Listening to KC game on way home and it was painful hearing how Creed Humphrey who we should have drafted was blasting guys at the second level.

likely the same people drafting average talent.

That means we are not a great team if we need to rely upon an injury to another teams key player.

MCD is Marvin Lewis. And this team is headed toward being the Marvin Lewis Bengals. Talented, but nothing special. Will beat up inferior teams and perhaps put a surprise upset or two, but make no impact in the playoffs, etc. I hope this is not the case, but this is certainly the teams trajectory.

Zero Depth. Bean has stacked average picks upon average picks. The D line rotation scares no one, and the OL is awful.

DeCastro does indicate that he could play again after the injury. Unclear where he is in that process, but my gosh there have to be people better than Hart available.
