This game reminds me of the Bills/Browns divisional playoff game in ‘89. Back and forth, Bills lose at the end. But they were talented and next year Super Bowl XXV. Bills can add some elements but they are in great shape to make another run.

I don’t think he hates the city at all, but I do believe he’s bored by what die-hard sports fans are interested in so he gets frustrated. He needs a different platform; a podcast would probably serve him better or a change to a public radio station where he can talk about sports lifestyles, etc. or his other interests in general.

I don’t know if he likes sports in general not just the Bills; not in the way a majority of fans do anyway. He seems more into the side dishes of the games: the analytics, fantasy sports, gaming and gambling aspects. I’m just clicking in for the main course. Matchup breakdowns, player news, etc. about the game/games. Buffalo, it seems, doesn’t have a true sports radio station which is weird AF considering it’s a sports town. I’m talking a station where any sport can be credibly discussed. Any news on the MLB lockout? The Lakers implosion? Or dozens of national sports stories. There would still be plenty of Bills/Sabres talk, but less filler. Maybe Buffalonians are satisfied with what they get.🤷🏾‍♂️

I understand the sentiment and agree that each game matters in regular season. Home field would be great to have. But eventually, they’re going to need to win on the road. If they make the playoffs next season and have to play on the road I’d still be confident they would win.

Yeah, they have Stevenson. Develop him and still get more players with that speed trait.

Glad it wasn’t called. It’s a weak rule that shouldn’t exist to impact the game; finally got a red crew with some common sense. I wouldn’t have called it either.

I like Bease, but we need to get more explosive. I won’t be shocked if they draft a WR at 25; the type who can take a 7 yard crosser 60 more yards for a TD. And he’ll be cheap the next 4-5 years. That 6 million is going to be needed elsewhere is what I’m guessing.

Bease is gone unless he takes a pay cut. Beane is no fool. Expect and will are two different words. Expectations change based on circumstances.

Stop making sense. That doesn’t seem to be a valuable trait after a loss.

You don’t seem to realize Frazier and McDermott share the same defensive principals. You think another DC would be outside of those principles? That’s doubtful. More likely to happen is Beane continues searching for D linemen who can impact the pocket as part of 4 rushers.

Didn’t the Bills beat the Chiefs in October? Gave up 20 points. Mahomes, Kelce and Hill all played too. Wait, my bad, I know that doesn’t count though because it doesn’t the narrative. I swear, a message board after a loss would be a fascinating study in human nature.

Or are they not playing because they need better players to execute the scheme? More explosive, faster, etc. it goes both ways.

I doubt Beane pays two top CB contracts at the same time.

Jameson Williams or Garrett Wilson if available.

You have a stud QB. You give him weapons. Period. Don’t act like the Bills couldn’t use a WR who can take a 10 yard crosser to the house. They can and should find one. They need some sudden athletes on both sides of the rock.

Allen is a Unicorn standing on top of a Pegasus. Accept it. Replace Edmunds with Klein watch Bills defense get lit up in the pass game. He’s a run down LB. You want to replace Edmunds you don’t do it with a guy like Klein.

Oliver is good. He’s extremely disruptive. Rousseau and Basham are 1 year in. Based on where they were taken the odds were they would need time to develop. It is what is. Explosive athletes on DL normally go very early in round 1. Or they have issues that cause a drop. You ain’t getting Bruce Smith at the 30th pick. Those two and Epenesa will get their chance to show what they can do next season because Jerry and Addison are done most likely and they will have to play.

Addison is a FA I believe. He was signed for two years and this past season was his second. I think Beane goes after playmakers on O. I think Bease and Star are definitely gone. Not so sure about Feliciano; depends on Morse. They won’t get rid of Ford. They need depth and with Allen’s cap hit going up it will need to be cheap depth. Team will still be good, but my thought is it will be too heavy (big resources spent on starters). Draft will be huge this year.

Turnover on rosters every year. Players know that. Don’t read too much into it.

Possible. I’m talking the athletic profile. Get a CB with elite movement skills and speed. Draft like we’re playing more man to man than zone.

The Chiefs eat every team alive when they’re on. Wallace is ok. But if I’m Beane I’m looking for more suddenness/quick twitch at CB and at Pass rusher and WR. Rousseau and Epenesa are too similar athletically. That’s cool for most games but a dude like Mahomes? We need a Von Miller type. Addison is gone. Jerry might be gone. Bease and Sanders are probably gone. Bring McKenzie back as a chess piece. Get another WR in FA or draft who can haul ass. Develop Stevenson so he can contribute on O and returner because he has that speed. Allen is that dude. Keep his options numerous. Look to trade Star if possible, Bease too, rather than cutting them. Use extra picks to move around draft board. It’s time to push all the chips in. Bills can get that trophy is Beane makes the right moves this off-season.

Log off. Come back when you’re reasonable.

Cooper is so underwhelming. I don’t understand it.

This is incompetence on parade if true.

You want a video game not life. Circumstances don’t need to be artificially perfect for success to be reached. You can have perfect weather and get less of what you think will happen in those perfect conditions. It ain’t the weather it’s the execution. Always. it’s all moot anyway. The Pegula’s already stated what the stadium would be. It is what is.
