It should for most teams including the bills
-
Honestly, this reply kind of hits the nail on the head of what I think seems to be the general sentiment but is actually just wrong (in my opinion, or course). It very much can still end up being an insurmountable challenge for any team that ends up in need. You can still end up going years and year in a row without even average play if you aren't careful. Lock in average? Most teams would be better of to take the bird in hand and go ahead and lock in average. We've got Josh and that's great. If there is a chance to get Josh and somebody we would have been happy to have in the 10 years prior to Josh--we should do it. Get greedy. If we have to spend and get a little fat salary-wise at QB that is perfectly fine and a great problem to have.

Just a few select mentions to frame the issue: -Brees -Brady -Rivers -Winston -Tannehill -Dak -Bridgewater -Stafford (lots of noise that he is trade market) Now, of course, not every one of those guys is going to end up being truly available (it's still early some may resign quickly or even retire). Also, I'm not claiming all of those guys are fantastic pick ups (not all of them are, obviously). But I think the trend is clear. You've got a certain class/age of guys getting toward the end and some big hits with some young guys (Mahomes, Lamar Jackson) as well as some other young guys teams are optimistic about. My take? The league may be going a bit too far at the point where a Brady, Rivers, and Stafford are all potentially attainable. It's still really hard to find QBs. As Bills fans, we know damn sure the hell of being in QB wilderness, how much it cripples the team, and how long and hard it can be to get out (potentially decades). In terms of young blood coming in and working out--still rare. Really just Mahomes at this point is confirmed (at least until Lamar puts together a follow-up season). The grass is not always greener and some of these teams may end up finding out the hard way that even average QB play isn't a given and you should lock that in if you can. Anyway, mostly a general observation but as this whole thing plays out given our amount of a cash I would have no problem adding someone to challenge Josh and at worst end up a great back up. Seems like an insane year for QBs and we have a pretty good roster. An injury or bad streak for Josh and I would love to have the option to not lose the season by plugging one of these guys in and seeing what they can do. Again, not necessarily saying everyone I listed is worth signing--the main point is that just because we like Josh doesn't mean we should ignore the fact that somehow the value of "at least average" QB play seems to be currently undervalued in terms of availability. We've gone a long time with below average. We should shop and considering buying another QB this off-season.

A Haters Guide for Rooting for Remaining Teams
dayman replied to KingBoots8's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I'm rooting for Tennessee. -
Hell no it doesn't lol it blew a 16-0 lead to a bad Houston team. The bills were average this year. Nothing more.
-
8-8 team (quality wise) that stayed heatly and had an easy schedule and blew a huge lead against a crap opponent in the playoffs. Lol ... Go to the airport?

What Changes will be made this Offseason?
dayman replied to wppete's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Bring in new qb to pressure Josh, send message to entire team -
Panthers fans I know were pretty vocal about him being a fat ass that sucked at the time so they already knew what we found out ... but the rest of the league was not 100% knowledgeable about the sucking part yet. Daboll has done a great job. The Bills offensive players suck he gets the most out of them.

Pretty bad mistake by the WR to end the game
-
OSU can cry about the refs all night long but it's a 5 point game with the entire 4th quarter left and their defense is playing good...offense needs to make a play. Clemson's offense has made plays....

Greatest of all time snowball fight

You shouldn't be spearing in the chest with the top of your helmet either so ... no?

Remember when Rex Ryan was our HC? Jesus ****in' christ wtf was going on in Buffalo back then lol
-
More than letting them hang at this point they are giving it away. IMO Clemson going to win this by 10 or more points. The OSU RB quit. EDIT: OSU RB ran out of the tunnel right as I posted that. lol
-
IMO that targeting call was fair. Tough rule on the ejection ... would rather that be at discretion of the ref than automatic but it is what it is and if that's the rule it was called correctly. Refs def. helped get Clemson back in the game but here we are ... ball game.
-
I personally don't want to pay a RB ever. Draft another RB late and he can be our #2. IMO, teams can run just fine off of periodic 3rd/4th round picks ... no need to pay up on the second contract ever at RB. Keep building that line. Try to find some WRs to pay...they are worth it.

Dobbins looking real speedy Clemson looking real ... bad at tackling Dobbins
-
Dobbins destroyed that Clemson saftey's world...that looks real bad on replay. Ouch.
