We just need to get through this offseason and keep our own at the moment. 2023 is a big FA year for us. Notable are Knox, Singletary, Morse, Ed Oliver (5th year), Poyer, and Edmunds. Plus a looming expensive extension for Diggs. Special mention for Dane Jackson, his contract will be dependent on what we do with Wallace after this season. Spotrac is estimating we have $70M free including $10M from this years roll over. I would be shocked if they let Poyer walk, he will command $15M, Edmunds hopefully gets something done in the $12-13M range, Oliver will take $10, if we are lucky we get Knox in the $8-10M range. That leave us ~$25M to make some other moves and extend Diggs. Getting more production from the DE's we drafted will be important going forward. Long and short, if we can hit this draft and nail this years roster changes, I think we can solidify a window of another 3-5 years.

Just wait until Hughes lines up at RB. Suddenly that Chandler Jones match up isn’t so crazy.

Ok so hear me out further. This game is basically first team to 100. Defense doesn’t matter. With Josh switching to TE, Poyer was a HS QB. Do we think we will win by 50 or 60 if we put Poyer behind center? I think the Bills are 0-2 or 0-3 when Allen catches the ball. Hard pass.

Here me out, we have a real lack of depth at TE, if Knox gets turf toe tomorrow and can't go tomorrow. If Allen can learn TE in 4 days, do you think it is possible he sets the single game receiving record against KC?

OP kept asking people for real responses, I figured somebody had to do it.

The ask from OP though isn't for George Wilson to play SS. It is for Isaiah McKenzie to cover in man to man against Tyreek Hill. The time it would take for Isaiah to become a starting man to man corner is significant, and would require him to bail entirely on being a WR. Let alone be that guy in a week. George Wilson was also 6' 214lbs. I believe for last years Ravens game it was reported that IM was playing Lamar Jackson on the scout team to help get them up to speed. The Bills using IM like Hill on game day and in practice is most certainly his best use.

Remember the drought years, but totally whiffed on the George Wilson joke? But you sort of answer your own question. It is an absolutely crazy idea that Isaiah McKenzie can learn to play CB at a high enough level to cover one of the most dangerous WR's in the league in just one week. The next major issue is going to be size. Unless McKenzie can become good enough to live on an Island with Hill in the next 5 days, he is a liability at a very small 5'8". Have there been really successful 5'8" CB's? Maybe, I cannot name one. But none of them switched to CB mid-season, let alone mid-week in the playoffs to cover one of the better talents in the league. It could totally happen I guess if McKenzie were a totally different human though....

Some people just can't let the drought years go. "I am ready, put me in coach" - George Wilson right now, probably

I hate you and every other poster creating 100 versions of the same, dumb, bad juju threads. Stop

This is so dumb. Trading picks without legal proceedings and gaurantee from the league that Watson is at no risk of being suspended is beyond irresponsible.

It will depend on how we do with drafts and FA decisions the next few years. I am glad the OL is gel-ing. It allows us some patience in letting rookies progress over the next year or two rather than need them to impact on day one. Phillips, Wallace, McKenzie, Edmunds resigning or getting immediate and comparable production will be a major defining factor.

Looking at this weekends schedule again, I really thought Buffalo v. KC would be the Saturday night game and Rams v. TB would be Sunday Night. It is a more compelling match up and bigger markets than GB v SF.

Very liberal use of the word flattens.... But yes, I also like Spencer Brown.

Tar and feather @Captain Cavemanif we lose. @SDS, can we make the bad juju a risk for OP's like this? Maybe their account/VPN is locked into the Peter Pan profile picture for a year if the Bills lose?

Tennessee. Rematch please. Also sets up the Bills for an entire rematch post season. NE, KC, TN....TB.

He gets flamed on this board sometimes, but I really like Shannon Sharp. He is one of the better talking heads.

There is a chance that a Bills road to the SB is a full slate of 2021 rematches. NE,KC,TN,TB

Russell Wilson needs to learn to STFU

I hope in some wild universe Josh Rosen ends up killing it in the NFC West somewhere.

Pedestrian? Kyler Murray would be thrilled with pedestrian tonight.

I don’t think you should lose your challenge flag if you get the call overturned. Only counts if you stop the game and get it wrong.

I don’t get why this even needs to be challenged. If the refs need to circle for 2 minutes to discuss WTF might have happened, it should be a booth review. A coach shouldn’t have to waste a challenge flag because the refs decided they needed to guess.

Right, there is a guy, but your HC only has eyes on what goes on the big board. The HC is the one who has to throw the flag and makes the decision. It is a major part of homefield advantage, and it is one thing the Bills suck at. I am glad after all these decades, this is one of my largest gripes about the team at home.

Historically in playoff rematches, the team that won in regular season also wins in the playoffs. So maybe it is good that KC beat Pittsburgh? I will regroup on this in a week or so.

I would have been all over this in my OKC days.
