same here. Although, at this juncture, I'm in the we need to trade for a WR to salvage this season, then draft a WR next year. Ideally Adams, Metcalf, Higgins, or Johnson (although he has drop issues or did).
he does address #2.
seems like a combo of bad OL and WR play, that in turn creates poor QB play. Having a below average HC for game management is a bonus for underperformance
heck, if we are never going to use him correctly, which is mind blowing that he could be better in DC, perhaps trade him to free up cap next year. could use that money to extend Cooper if he is the guy we get?
Told by who? Everyone should be calling Adams. Why wouldn't he want to come here. Seems rediculous a top WR would not want to come to a team playing primetime games with a top QB.
if Cooper is only a 4th or 5th, it's not really even a "risk move" at that price. Heck, I'd even go after Adams for a 2nd. Trade 2nd and 5th for Adams and Cooper, sign me up.
there has to be some flexibility in his thinking. Although, we haven't seen that yet.
exactly. There is a world of difference between being a micromanager and totally hands off. McD, well, we will never know because it's always someone else's fault, even when he starts with "I take the blame", then goes on to state what he wanted instead.
worth finding out what the heck happened that led to him not playing. perhaps personal issues with the DC? Guy was a stud a few years ago. If he is a vet min and knows he will have to earn playing time, it may not hurt the depth.
that said, if he has any potential to become a distraction, etc., I'd pass. We need to save our "drama space" for getting someone like Adams in here ASAP.
Logic. This is a very good take, and it's rediculous you would not have a counter for the Ds counter. But, as to the bold, well, at least teams with good DLs aren't often encountered in the playoffs.....
good point, but JA used them a lot his rookie or 3rd year just to get hyped as I recall. He prob wanted them to breath easier or something following having a rib nearly cracked
agreed on the adjustments. But the problem is, you can't be spotting a team like McDs defenses do. (and Collins being out was a huge benefit to the D) This won't work against KC, Cincy, Balt.
this is an interesting idea. Have a Bills employee watching the game elsewhere, who has a line in and can explain what you are seeing outside the stress of the minute. Almost like having a coordinator in a box who can see the field, but one step removed from even that.
