Herbert Broken Finger *Update: Out for Season
Kirby Jackson replied to Process's topic in The Stadium Wall
This hasn’t been talked about enough (especially with the win at KC). If Herbert is out, the Bills SHOULD beat LA and NE. With a win this week, they should be playing for the division in week 18. It’s possible, without a win this week, that the Bills are playing for the division in week 18. The Chargers game has felt like a potential trap to me all year. If there is no Herbert, it’s a game that you MUST win with the stakes as high as they’ll be. I’m with @RiotAct. They’ll be out of the playoff picture if they aren’t already. Why would you bring back the QB, that you just paid a bazillion dollars to, for the last few meaningless weeks, with a broken finger on his throwing hand? What’s the best case scenario? If they string together a few losses, they increase their draft positioning as well. It makes ZERO sense to bring him back if the injury requires surgery. -
AJ E!!

You take the ball against Mahomes!! Play from ahead!!

This is spot on! People will create whatever narrative best fits their perspective. It isn’t that one is necessarily right or wrong, it’s the hyperbole and extremes that people use to emphasize that point that are annoying. It’s a little like that with Josh on Twitter too. The difference is the people on the negative side don’t have much more than “he has a lot of turnovers.” There are so many counters based on TD: turnover. Anyone informed can pretty easily embarrass the “anti-Josh crowd.” The McDermott one is much tougher. You can make a strong case on both sides. I fall to the “he was the right guy to build a program but the wrong guy to win a championship” side. That isn’t necessarily right or wrong. If you said “he is killing them,” you could make that argument easily. If you say, he’s the best coach since Marv, you could easily make that argument as well. You’re seeing it within this thread.

Lol, you know what I mean. I’m talking about that dad with the tucked in polo shirt, khaki shorts, and dad shoes. He may or may not have his cell phone clipped to his belt with some ankle socks. He shakes your hand, but deep down thinks that you’re a bad person for no real reason. When his kid gets caught with alcohol, weed or whatever his initial instinct is that it’s your fault 😂😂.

Shocking that you’d be the one to have an issue with my opinion 🙄. As you may or may not know, I have many contacts within that building (both past and present). I also follow the Bills very closely. My opinion, based on all of that, is that he’s a bit fake. Sorry that you have an issue with my opinion…

I’ve spent my 20 year-career reading people. It isn’t necessarily the words that they say, it’s body language, tone, intent, cadence, confidence, etc… Authenticity is one of the most important qualities in a person. He lacks that. McDermott always felt like a bit of a fraud to me. He seemed like that friend’s dad that you didn’t really like growing up. He felt like he’d be nice to your face but deep down didn’t want you around his kid. One of the least surprising things about this article was the part about him being annoyed that the WRs bought Chad Hall that truck. That feels “on brand.” This isn’t meant to be a comparison but do you think Mike McDaniel would care if his WRs bought their coach a truck? That guy feels REAL. That’s not meant to say “McDanel = good and McDermott = bad.” I think that we’d all agree that McDaniel feels more authentic than McDermott. I do not think that McDermott was “admiring” the terrorists. He isn’t evil. He’s just fake. I think that he poorly chose his words. He has spent the last half-dozen years trying to keep things tight within OBD. I believe that he believes that’s what’s best for the team. I also believe that it’s because he doesn’t want all of “the truths” out there. It’s a little of that too. I don’t want him gone because he said something stupid in 2019. I want him gone because isn’t the guy to take this team across the finish line IMO.

Lol, I can’t understand, for the life of me, why the Bills would be interested in this. But alas…

Which WR prospect will the Bengals screw us out of?
Kirby Jackson replied to DrDawkinstein's topic in The Stadium Wall
For me, it is unequivocally yes. I believe that he is a top 10 WR now. There are other good receivers in this class for sure. He certainly has the highest floor (if you care about that in round 1). MHJ won’t be Quentin Johnston but Malik Nabors might be. It depends what you’re looking for. If the Bills could get MHJ (extremely unlikely) they’d have the best weapons in the league. You’d elevate your offense to that level without any more cap investment. -

Kirby Jackson replied to DrDawkinstein's topic in The Stadium Wall
He’s Calvin Johnson or Andre Johnson IMO. He is 1,200 and 10 TDs tomorrow. Generally, I agree. Flowers, Johnston, Addison and JSN were all thought of in the same tier. The same goes the year before with Olave, Wilson, etc… MHJ is different than that. He’s a tier above everyone else with a MASSIVE floor and ceiling. His floor is Tee Higgins or Devonta Smith. His ceiling is one of the all-time greats. It’s certainly an expensive investment but there’s virtually no risk with him (outside of an injury which everyone is at risk for). -

Kirby Jackson replied to DrDawkinstein's topic in The Stadium Wall
I would think that’s roughly the cost. My thinking is that you’d have at least 5 years on his rookie contract. You have the best WRs in the league as long as Diggs remains as he is. After MHJ’s rookie contract you can move on from Diggs (if not sooner). With as expensive as WRs are, this move would position the Bills well moving forward. -

Kirby Jackson replied to DrDawkinstein's topic in The Stadium Wall
Total hypothetical: Let’s pretend MHJ somehow falls to 5. This is highly unlikely but for the sake of this question, we will imagine. Let’s say that the Bills pick is like 18. Would you trade your 1st, 2nd, next year’s 1st and like a 2025 4th for him? I’d do it without blinking but wondering what others think? -
WGR Topic: McDermotts Mt Rushmore of Lossess'
Kirby Jackson replied to boyst's topic in The Stadium Wall
Good topic: - 13 seconds (this one in unanimous) - Vikings Game (I don’t know if I’ve ever seen a team in position to kneel actually lose) - Peterman game (he thought that the worst QB ever was a viable option as a starter. It went as anyone with eyes would have expected) - Patriots game this year (you played a game that you had to win against the worst team in the league) There are so many other failures to consider. -
Any TBD members at the game yesterday?
Kirby Jackson replied to Another Fan's topic in The Stadium Wall
Apparently homophobic slurs run rampant throughout that place as well. These five guys said that they heard that word more times in 3 hours than they’ve heard in 20 years. -

Naw, he’s a Mormon. They don’t curse. It might have been Corey Perry though. -

Kirby Jackson replied to Another Fan's topic in The Stadium Wall
I had a ticket but didn’t go because of the environment. The guys that I work with were all there though and the stories are wild. They were spit on, cursed at, etc… One guy said to my buddy, “I’m going to shoot you in the face and the f%<$ your mom.” -

Kirby Jackson replied to DrDawkinstein's topic in The Stadium Wall
Keon Coleman feels like the one that will go right before the Bills. He’s just one of those “generational” guys. MHJ is a top 10 WR in the world right now. He gets off the bus next year and will have 1,200 yards and 10 TDs. The logic would be, if you miss Maye and Caleb, take the best player in the draft. Then you’d trade into the back end of the 1st for someone like McCarthy or Penix or Daniels. -
Who should coach this team in 2024?
Kirby Jackson replied to Kirby Jackson's topic in The Stadium Wall
Denver doesn’t regret it… Hopefully we can trade Mick Jauron to the Panthers. -

Kirby Jackson replied to Kirby Jackson's topic in The Stadium Wall
That’s what he does!! 2-6 in 1 score games and 9-15 in 1 score games over the last 3 years!! That’s nearly impossible for a team with the Bills winning percentage. It’s cool that you’re fine wasting Josh Allen’s prime with “Mick Jauron” (trademark pending) blowing late leads. I’m on record that I would have canned him and went after Sean Payton. I’d be looking at Executive of the Year with that foresight. https://x.com/lifewithmikey52/status/1728980593269256601?s=46&t=aIi6rXjE4r9_s--847m7fQ
