I wouldn't say they can plug and play every QB. The more common argument is they draft and develop day 2 and day 3 QB prospects better than any team in the league. I would say Belichick gets more out of his talent and puts his players into a situation where they can succeed best better than any coach in the league.

You said Cassel wasn't some bum but he is. He is a bum. I literally saw him this pan handling for spare change. He smelled like complete *****. TLC actually wrote that song about him. He is the biggest scrub whoever was a bum. Stop defending Cassel and making weird points about Todd Haley and his open marriage.

You need to account for Diggs, Epenesa, Addison, Moss, etc. We are talking today's roster. I would not factor in the relative strength of AFC opponents in this exercise.

Probably because Romeo Crennel wasn't even the Chiefs head coach for Matt Cassel's one good year in KC and because has a 28-55 lifetime W/L. Other than that, great point. If you think Matt Cassel was a good QB because he had one good year in KC then I don't know what to tell you. The numbers speak volumes. https://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/C/CassMa00.htm

what are you talking about?

He fumbled another punt return against New England in 2014 on MNF. https://fansided.com/2015/11/23/bills-leodis-mckelvin-fumbles-return-video/ Then there was the KC game. https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/2014/11/09/bumbling-bills-fumble-away-17-13-loss-to-chiefs/18775595/

I think we can all agree that this is the strongest roster we have had since 1999, but could it possibly be better? The 1999 Bills still had the big names but Bruce, Andre, and Thurman were at the end of their careers. Meanwhile future stars like Winfield and Pat Williams were just getting started. Moulds was in his prime. They are similar looking teams. Dominate defenses and middle of the road offenses. https://www.pro-football-reference.com/teams/buf/1999_roster.htm Position wise, I have it as below: QB: 2020 RB: 2020 WR: 2020 TE: Toss Up OL: 1999 DE: 1999 DT: 1999 LB: 2020 CB: 2020 S: Toss Up K/P: 1999 I'll take 2020.

What is your problem with Pinto Ron?

Gee, how many guys get drafted who didn't make a college start? One of those 33 college passes must have been a beauty. I wonder which one scouts liked the most?

Unless Stidham dazzles from the start, it could get ugly in New England. Belichick's schtick is tolerable when you're a perennial super bowl contender but when you're a 5 win team I think players will find the Patriot Way to be exhausting. Good luck attracting free agents without a QB and a hard ass coach. With their spoiled media and fair weather fan base I could see the wheels falling off by week 4. These are fans that booed the Pats at home for starting 2-2.

I liked OP's other thread "Why All Dogs DON'T Go To Heaven!"

When Brady went down he WAS some bum who hadn't started a game since high school. When Brady went down Cassel, who was in his 4th year in teh league, had 39 NFL career passing attempts, shattering his college record of 33 pass attempts in his illustrious USC career. After leaving New England he went on to a 26-40 career record. He had one winning season in KC. After 2.5 seasons as KC's starter he was benched for Brady Quinn and then released. Matt Cassel is, was, and still is a bum.

He had not started a game since high school. Its amazing they even found Cassel.

I would add best special teams in the league to that list.

I've made about 8 pizzas. Baked some brioche buns for burger night which were pretty spectacular. For sour dough you need a starter, and luckily for you sour dough starters use natural yeast found on the flour and in the air.

Dareus showing up late to the pre-season game vs. Baltimore sealed his fate. From that point on his days in Buffalo were numbered. Most of us knew that unless he found Jesus then he wasn't in the team's long-term plans. As @C.Biscuit97 pointed out, the timing made no sense to many of us. I believe McD and Beane had no real intention of competing that season and did expect us to be winning games at that point. The Watkins handling was a debacle. Partly because there was no GM in place when the decision was up on Watkins 5th year option. McDermott made the call on not extending as it was before Beane was hired. I think they could have gotten a better package had they executed his 5th year and then traded him. Can't fault Beane for dealing with the aftermath. Ironically, the move everyone loved was the biggest whiff. How were they so far off about Kelvin Benjamin? Given the way everything worked out, I can't say I care a whole lot. I do wonder from time to time what this team looks like if we could have had our GM and head coach in place before the 2017 draft, but I have no complaints with where they're at right now.

I was highly critical of this move at the time and still think the timing was stupid. I was similarly critical of the handling of Watkins contract and the eventual trade that looked like treading water. I was supportive of the Kelvin Benjamin trade which may have been the biggest mistake of Beane's tenure. Year's later my opinions have not changed that much. My biggest takeaway is that the culture McD and Beane have established, the locker room, and the scouting department is strong enough to overcome some misses. The foundation for sustained success appears to be in place.

I expect reasonable discussion. I know these people and trust they will leave their politics at the door and engage civilly.

Most of the talking heads are high on Buffalo. They have Allen as the best QB in the division. The obnoxious opinions from the extremely loud minority being shared all over Bills Mafia facebook and the budding QB controversy for simpletons are irrelevant. When it comes to QB play we have 3 types of Bills fans: 1. The fast in love, thin skinned fan boys who see persecution everywhere 2. The ardent haters who will never be convinced 3. The quiet and reasonable ones who recognize upside, flaws, progression, and regression when they see it. 11/10 threads and social median posts on the topic of QB play are started by the first 2 groups.

Buffalo Bills Fans: Everybody knows Josh Allen is better than Cam, Dalton, and Jameis. Its not even close and only morons or haters think otherwise! Also Buffalo Bills Fans: ESPN has Josh Allen rated as their 22nd best starting QB!?!?!?! Burn down Bristol, CT!!!!!

Outside this board, I think you would find yourself in the distinct minority on this issue. Allen has yet to put up a season that compares to what Cam, Dalton, and Winston have done in the past. As it stands, Allen is a developing QB who isn't asked to do too much due to a stout defense.
