The next 6 games will be interesting.
GunnerBill replied to SoonerBillsFan's topic in The Stadium Wall
Definitely. I think last season felt like a team that had run out of gas and had missed its chances. What happened at the end of the year is Shakir, Benford, Bernard, Cook, Kincaid really started to emerge and you began to see the Allen Bills v2.0. This season seeing some more young blood added and that further development of those guys is fun. I'd still be surprised personally if this team is a championship level team this season, but I think some of the pieces look like they might fall into place that with the right additions and a bit more development from players and our two young coordinators they could be right back in that mix in 2025. -

I suppose Rams looks 4th most likely. I just can't see the Bills losing all four of those games. Is there a surprise loss left somewhere on the schedule? I think Indy if they have gone to Flacco becomes a tougher out than it would be otherwise. -

Houston look really average to me at the moment. They have some injuries, and if Collins and Diggs are missing time together I wonder about how that impacts them. Their division is weak but they still have Lions, Chiefs, Ravens to come they'd only have to drop those three and maybe one more to end up as the #4 IMO. -
It looks really good so far. Coleman, Davis, Solomon, Grable (I know only played pre-season and now hurt but I was super impressed with him and he had passed Van Demark on the depth chart to be their swing tackle as a 6th round rookie) are the highlights to me. Carter was a bit up and down. I think his ceiling is a rotational piece and I am just not sure that is round 3 value but we will see. Bishop was horrible the one game he got in but he missed almost all of camp in a scheme where safeties have to rely on their brain and knowledge if the defense more than physical ability so I am willing to give him something of a pass for now. And then I still think Van-Pran Granger has potential to be a starter at some point too albeit he is well down the depth chart right now.

Don't they need to wait for the next CBA?

Khalil Mack trade - what would it take?
GunnerBill replied to MiracleAtRich1393's topic in The Stadium Wall
He is better than Hughes was in those runs. I'd say he is kinda what Leonard Floyd was for us last year although he maintained it better whereas Floyd fell off a cliff mid season. -
Yea I thought they could be a threat before the season. To be honest I was out by the Denver game a week before Saleh was fired. Rodgers can still turn it on in patches but he doesn't have the heart or the leadership to be an elite QB anymore. His leadership flaw mattered less when his talent was all worldly. It ain't anymore.

I mean I agree with this too. Chargers at 4-3, weak schedule and a weak AFC wildcard field. Harbaugh is absolutely thinking "get in year 1 buys me some time while I carry on rebuilding this roster." -

GunnerBill replied to MiracleAtRich1393's topic in The Stadium Wall
Yes I would think so. And giving that up for a 9 game rental of a 33 year old who isn't a game wrecker IMO when this team is still in the process of reloading and isn't one piece away I think would be foolish in the extreme. -

GunnerBill replied to MiracleAtRich1393's topic in The Stadium Wall
No, I'd trade a 6th for him. He won't be available for a 6th. The pick "it would take" is a pick only a bad GM would throw at a diminished player who, IMO (and I get this is a controversial view) was one of the most overrated players of the past decade to start with. -
I don't. But you keep making untrue statements so I'll keep calling you out on them. When you stop, I'll stop saying you are factually wrong. I have already agreed with you on this season.
-
This season - yes. Before that - not at all. And you are arguing a untruth to say otherwise. This isn't an opinion. It's a fact.

What would it take? A bad GM? -
They haven't. The evidence tells you conclusively they have been a good to very good first Quarter team for 5 seasons. Until this one.
-
Stafford's line is worse! Fair Cousins and Goff are playing behind two of the better Olines.
-
It won't they have to fix it. Was interesting to me that both coordinators mixed up tendencies early yesterday. I think it is mainly an inexperience at coordinator issue. Hopefully yesterday was a meaningful step forward.
-
In this iteration of the Bills? No. Because they have shown they have a problem there. Have I in previous years? Yes, because they have demonstrably been really good there.

Who has been the best Bills player not named Josh Allen?
GunnerBill replied to HappyDays's topic in The Stadium Wall
He played almost exclusively safety in KC though. He did some nickel in Arizona but at Kansas City he was a safety. -

Chris Harris at his peak in Denver. I know he played outside a bit too but he was mainly a nickel and a game changing one. He is the only one I'd put in that category off the top of my head. -
Meh. I am not a massive fan of Davis's vision. He has good burst, he is a decisive runner and he always falls forward, but vision wouldn't be one of his major strengths.

It is the #1 thing I look for when I evaluate backs. It is why I was never a Breece Hall truther, he wouldn't see a pumpkin in a cornfield.

Win the next two. Get to 8-2. Then I think the Bills find a way to at least split those 4 games. I know we lost to Baltimore and Houston but we have beaten good teams in the regular season plenty over the years and this group is getting better as they go. -

GunnerBill replied to HappyDays's topic in The Stadium Wall
I think Taron IS the second best player on the team but in terms of just this year he has only played half the games and he played like 2 series in the first of them so that keeps him out of the conversation for now for me. -

This is the right answer. I don't think it is close personally. I think Shakir, Cook and Rousseau all have legit cases for #3. But #2 is clear in my mind.
