  1. Not being naive or homer-ish but this team doesn’t show any signs of player vs coach strife. The Bills seem like a “ team” in the sense of the SuperBowl era where everyone is on the same page. My original question wasn’t suggesting anything more than a “ check in” between Webb and Roman and/ or a position coach or two. A quick chat without a bunch of specificity. I would be Shocked if anyone at these workouts narced out a coach. I can clearly imagine Allen or Webb reminding everyone to keep it on the down low if any coach input was discussed.
  2. Never underestimate the stupidity of “ smart” people.
  3. I wonder how much the coaching staff was actually in on this.
  4. CRAP!!!! We aren’t losing to the Raiders, Titans, Seahawks or Stillers!!!! We will be in the AFC Championship game at a bare minimum!!!! SHOT CALLED?
  5. It’s a Godsend seeing rookies running bad routes? Can’t wait for the coaches and Diggs, Brown and Allen to get in their ears and get some of that cleaned up.
  6. How bout we talk about drafting receivers who actually catch the ball with their hands.....naturally and effortlessly ? The routes need some work but routes don’t catch the ball.... hands do.
  7. I think it depends on what you define “ regression “ as. I think Brown could even be more dangerous with Diggs around. Maybe fewer yards and receptions but more TDs as he becomes the more open option, especially in the Redzone.
  8. THIS!!!! All Day!!!! For all the talk of the long ball, which is important, having a better blitz pickup strategy is imperative. Not just for JA but the O as a whole.
  9. Love it. A sense of humor While tricking people. When he starts to do this to opposing Defenses while realizing what the D is trying to do to him..... That’s Gold Jerry!!!! Gold!!!!!
  10. McD has shown us the typical aversion to rookies with his handling of Singletary vs Gore to start last season. This is one reason I think overall playing time goes to vets. Singletary has earned it although I think we all hope Moss makes it so that it becomes a moot point as to who is in the game?. If they became equally interchangeable ( it terms of production) we would have the best RB tandem in the league possibly. To start the season , barring injury, Addison is a vet’s vet. A lunch pail guy who is a prototypical McD guy. I REALLY hope MA can continue at his previous level. The Bills D will immediately be better against the pass and run. Not just because of sacks and stops but also the pressure he will consistently bring making 10 other Incrementally easier which has a cumulative effect. Addison was a GREAT get!
  11. Could he flame out this year? Yes. I think the chance of that happening is below 10%. He WANTS it. He will do what it takes to get it. JA has that rare quality of having complete belief in himself while being truly coach able. He can see where he is, in his growth, while still knowing he can get better at anything he sets his mind to. Then he works it. Before last season “he couldn’t hit the short pass.” He worked it and VOILA he could. It looked like he would always play “ hero ball” and force risky throws because he believed in his arm. After doing that early , with NE game being the worst, the coaches got in his ear and he allowed himself to be dialed back. Some on here said he was “ hesitant “ or “ gun shy “. Turns out he was just coach able. I didn’t see this with Mayfield. Rosen looks lost and defeated every time he’s on the field. Once Brady, Brees and Rothlisberger, Rivers and possibly Rogers are out Josh will clearly be one of the top ten in the league.
  12. I’m going off the highlight video and draft analysis I read. He has the weird intuitive way of falling forward at odd angles. What I like is he goes forward. Too many backs ( Spiller) over the years have refused to take what was given. This is imperative for a short yardage back.
  13. Challenge accepted ??? This isn’t an every down expectation but it is a tone setting attitude to have. The kid has already demonstrated an uncanny ability to keep his balance . He hits small creases for positive yards. When the defender thinks he might get run over he has to set his feet and drop his weight which sets him up for a different move. Lastly, the kid runs a couple dudes over and the WHOLE team will feed off that energy. ???
  14. When your RB acts as a fullback and Iso- blocks SAFETIES, it is only good for our team. Also, if I’ve read enough anti Edmund’s posts on here, in the last two years, correctly.... LBs do miss tackles?
  15. Just looked this up and it says” Some” customers have received emails stating it’s free. We all have a FAT bargaining chip this year even if it’s not automatically given. My day just got brighter?
  16. Super Bowl Win!!! Josh hold serve on last years stats with the exception of connecting on 50% of the long ball misses. The rookie RB gives us the best 1-2 punch in the league coupled with incremental improvement by the O line. The D gets 10 more take aways over last year. The Run D is shored you. We don’t have a lot of injuries. THE WINDOW IS OPEN!!! It would be a magical season but it is completely within the realm of likely outcomes.
  17. Start in terms of week one? No But if Singletary goes down I think he is clearly capable of handling the load providing his pass pro skills are up to snuff
  18. 13-3 Seattle , San Fran and Arizona the only losses. All NFC, Who cares? AFC east and AFC Conference Champs ???
  19. Year after year on schedule release day, I’d come on here and it was 6-10 or 7-9. People would be trying to talk themselves into wins. I’m looking at the schedule and trying to talk myself into losses and for the life of me I can’t. “Good years” indeed?
  20. I agree. “ Must win” is about rubbing every doubters and crap talkers nose in it. Which I will do...... with a BIG smile on my face.
  21. I’ve been battling the local radio guys here who keep saying “ Cam should start for the Bills this year”. EVERY national guy they get on they ask about this..... I swear it’s just to piss me off.... which it does?
