K D

he would be a backup and a replacement for Peterman. surely anyone could get on board with that

cue the "there's nothing else to do in Buffalo" jokes

hmmmmmmm Kenmore Kizer?

we aren't getting Cousins but Kizer would be my backup over Peterman any day

Watching the Superbowl was eye opening on a number of levels. It took Foles playing out of his mind and passing for nearly 400 yards in his best game ever just to keep up with Brady and the Pats and the Eagles still would have lost if not for a miracle strip sack in what was sure to be NE's game winning drive. This is the new NFL and that is how you win. You put the ball in the air. You take shots down field. You go for it on 4th down and take chances. You get creative with the play calls. You go for the TD and don't accept just a FG. Pederson knew that he had to make some tough calls to win and he had the guts to call them on the game's biggest stage. When everyone gets together to watch the Superbowl what often happens is you end up watching the game with people that aren't big football fans otherwise. It was obvious to many of the casual observers watching with us that this did not look like any Bills game they had seen in recent years. "This was more exciting than any of ours games. Why don't the Bills throw it like that?" For many years the entire Bills organization has been stuck on this notion that you have a strong running game and a strong defense and that will be how you win. Really? How well has that worked for us? We have had some great running teams but where has that gotten us? If anything, the run game and defense are afterthoughts as yesterday's game surely proved. You have to score and you have to score fast. You have to push the ball down the field. That is how you win championships. If you are content with merely backing into the playoffs and hovering around the .500 mark every year then sure, draft some nice defensive players in the first round (and then trade them away when they don't fit your scheme anymore). Maybe draft a late round QB and see if he is any good. Buy a lottery ticket too because hey, you never know. Hand the ball off to Shady 30 times. Have a QB that is better at running than throwing. Be conservative on your play calls. Take those 3 points when you can. Definitely punt on 4th and 1. Run the same boring plays over and over. Require your defense to get takeaways and make plays. And make sure you have a good punter. Or hey, maybe change it up a little and put a higher priority on the QB position. Have a sophisticated passing attack and push the ball to the 2nd level of the defense. Go for it on 4th down when the stats are favorable. Don't settle for the 3, take shots into the endzone and get the 7. Have some creative plays dialed up. Take some risks don't be so conservative and predictable! I keep waiting for them to "get it." Sadly, I don't think this new administration does either. We will see where their priorities lie in April. Are they ready to do what it takes to take us to the next level and be a real contender? Or will they be conservative and make the safe picks just to keep pace and keep their jobs?

they haven't put a priority on the QB position in 20 yrs and we have been bad for 20 yrs so go figure. they will chicken out again and not doing anything substantial. the only answer is trade to move up and get a guy as well as sign a vet. if they use their first 2 picks on defense like everyone is mocking us to do then 2018 will be a step backwards

i only come here for the history jokes

You watched that game and your take away was good D? There are some really delusional posters on this forum

We will ignore his entire career besides 2013 to help prove your point. He had a great playoff run though

Pederson calls the plays and Schwartz's D got roasted. Congrats to Nick Foles and gutsy play calling by Pederson knowing they needed TD's to keep pace with the Pats

Bad call, 2 point not necessary there

I wanted him to catch it and a safety to come up and put his lights out like Cooks. Sleepy time for Tommy

Pats suck!

in

Too late now. This was the year to get a QB. Probably 3 guys that will be long term starters in the league. I don't know of anyone good coming out next year. It will be like the EJ draft all over again

Best seasons go to Bledsoe, Orton, Fitz. Hard to choose which of them was the best because Bledsoe played so bad the following season he was run out of town, Orton only played the 1 season then decided he would rather retire than come back, and Fitz just wasn't good enough to be a starter. If you think Tyrod was good then you need to factor in his running. That's not a QB. I'm ranking them as far as actually being able to throw a football

It doesnt matter if he costs $1 if he can't complete a pass. He's not good.

Everyone looks good in highlights. That's the point of highlights

He was close. It would be our extra 1st, our extra 2nd, next year's 1st, and maybe a later round pick this year. Or we could have started Peterman and had that pick for free but everyone wants instant gratification now here we are with decisions to make that could lead to people being fired if they are wrong

Tyrod wears contacts. He's had one fall out on a number of occasions. He might need to get his eyes checked again though. He might have the wrong prescription

LANDRY????? WTF??? that would be like the Bills signing Bryan Cox back in the day. no thanks

if our starting qb is Derek Anderson I don't think I'll watch a single game this year. i'll jump back on after the 3-13 season to discuss who we will get with the #1 overall selection

it's an abusive relationship that i can't get out of. is there a hotline i can call?

oh my
