I just love stuff that Josh can use to further motivate himself.

Like we expect any of the fans on this board to say anything negative about their shining example of Beane’s “incompetence”…

Cool story bro

His first and last names don’t really go together, so it’s a pass for me, dog.

Have you seen Hollins’ instagram?

I can’t believe ScottLaw calls into that show… Damn straight. The Cowboys and Fish keep winning playoff games and Super Bowls while the Bills…

Weird response. I don’t care whether you “like” McDermott as a coach or not. I think it’s indisputable that he is a good human being and has completely changed the way both players and fans view the Buffalo Bills. He’s not a perfect coach and I’ve never said he is. Rather, it’s your ridiculous and baseless assertions that McD controls Beane and makes all personnel decisions that leave me rolling my eyes. You’ve dug your heels in with this insane conspiracy theory and it boggles my mind. I’m a logical person and when people don’t act logically I’m flummoxed. But in the end, I don’t really care one little bit about what fans think about the Bills and their management; it’s more important to me how people treat each other. I come here as a diversion and because I love the Bills. I also see no point in ruminating over things I can’t control. Have a great weekend.

Maybe he did and maybe he didn't. Maybe he had several guys ranked similarly and was happy to get one of those guys in order to get a 3rd round pick. It's not all black and white. The bottom line is that saying he was somehow incompetent because he "allowed" KC to draft Worthy is just foolish.

Where is that knucklehead, anyway? I miss his preseason gloom and doom content.

Sounds like a you problem.

Only from people who don't understand how the draft works. It's not Brandon Beane's job to prevent other teams from selecting players they want; it's to put himself in the best position to acquire the talent he wants..

This board has never been that. In fact, those who take an optimistic perspective are frequently the ones beaten down and told they don't know s-h-i-t about football. There are also far too many self-proclaimed know-it-alls who are patronizing and condescending to anyone who doesn't agree with them. If there was only one frequent contributor to this board we could all hope to emulate it is @GunnerBill. He studies and knows his stuff but doesn't condescend to others. He listens to all viewpoints and if he disagrees, he does so in a respectful manner and provides insight into why he believes the way he does. His only flaw is that he's just not very funny It's fun to be optimistic and root for your team. Crusades like the one you have against McDermott are completely futile and I don't see how doing this brings you any joy. Cheers and Go Bills

I like the Bills going into this season with a chip on their shoulder.

Do you think the additions of Hill, Waddle, Achane had anything to do with the offense? Nobody is saying McDaniel isn’t a good OC. My only point is that this is not a good look for Tua. You obviously have an axe to grind against Flores. What is strange about mentioning a QB’s ability in crunch time? That’s how the great ones are measured. And pretty much everyone claimed Tua would light the league on fire, so comparing what he has done to what Allen has done is certainly applicable. Anyway, I don’t really care…I just found the conversation in here pretty amazing.

What “problem” do I have? Tua developed just like any QB should. Josh Allen got better in his 3rd year too. In my opinion it‘s poor form for Tua to blame his head coach…and I don’t dislike Tua at all. My point still stands that he hasn’t really done anything great in this league when it matters.

This thread is pretty amazing. There’s no real “story” here other than a new age player responding poorly to an old school coach. Tua still hasn’t done crap in this league (i.e., win a big game or playoff game); he puts up gaudy numbers in a video game offense that works well until December. Flores got railroaded and Tua got a nerdy rah-rah coach to make him feel special. If McDaniel ever yelled at a player they’d probably look at him like he had a third eye.

“Keep in mind” what — your baseless assumptions? I don’t know where to start, but how about that it is just as likely that when the Bills acquired McGovern the plan all along was to have him replace Morse? I understand that folks are entitled to their opinions, but when those opinions are presented as known facts it skews the conversation.

Which, as a professed Bills fan, is incredulous.

No, it is absolutely not the same hobby. I think that’s my point. Things change; you can either embrace change or decide to do something else. Trust me, the NFL is not losing market share or fan interest.

It sure does. Some folks just have an axe to grind or are envious. Many Bills fans still fail to realize how good they have had it. This new stadium will be filled and be a great experience for those who choose to take part.

That's why never has asterisks around it. There are exceptions.

Don’t get me started…it’s irresponsible and borderline unethical for an actual MD to do this. I think with an offense (and QB) like the Bills have, and an above average defense, they should *never* punt from beyond midfield or attempt a FG of longer than 40 yards (LOS at the 23) unless it is an end of half or end of game scenario. I’m sure there are a few other limited exceptions, but if McD ran things that way I’d be pleased.

Oy vey, Darnold. I might have to rethink Jefferson as my fantasy keeper.

Bills football is back! Lots to look at this preseason. Can’t wait.
