I've had the same thought. But then I have also been drunk for about 7 days straight so don't take too much notice of me....

Let you be your true self Gug?

I still don't think the Steelers would beat them.

Thanks. Why did I have the Jets in my head? No idea.

I agree top 3. I think I'd have Dak top 5 though. I don't think he is at all the issue with Dallas. In fact I think he is main reason they are good. CeeDee is a stud but the rest of his supporting cast is not stellar. Maybe him ahead of Hurts.

Month? It is has been quite a season. In fact since the middle of last year and the loss at the Jets in which Von went down and Josh first dinged his shoulder almost nothing has been normal or straightforward about the Bills. We are definitely due a bounce or two going our way.

The reality is he has already been paid most of that money. Only $17m, which is his 2024 salary (full guaranteed) is actually to be paid next year. The rest (signing and option bonus) he already has in his bank account and it is just accounted for on the cap next year.

I see almost no chance the Steelers win their last two. The Mason Rudolph story is the same each time. Comes in, cuts it loose and puts up some yards in his first outing, then it all crumbles around him and those yards turn into picks. But you are right it isn't totally home and hosed yet.

Got you. He is definitely not as agile as he was last season pre-ACL. I thought he flashed 4th Quarter at Kansas City but he has been invisible this season. Which is frustrating.

He hasn't hit 50% once. He has only been at 40 or higher three times and two of those have been the last two weeks with Floyd nicked up and AJE down. If we can get the other two back Von can slide back into sharing the DE4 job with Shaq which is where he belongs on the current roster.

What do you mean by cut Miller some slack? I don't think anyone is attacking Von himself. Nobody is doubting his desire or effort to get back and impact the game. Nobody is blaming him. People understand the personal impact. But the fact that the Bills have a highly paid pass rusher out there who can't live up to his contract and isn't playing at the level we hoped for (for understandable reasons) is a legitmate point of discussion. It was a risky big swing on a player of age. Brandon Beane has been more willing to gamble on old guys than I would if I were a GM and Von was just the highest profile example. He got really unlucky with the ACL. It is what it is. There is a question about what they do beyond this year. But let's have that after the season. For now I hope Floyd and AJE can be healthy for this stretch run and we can use Von sparingly as the 4th man in the rotation.

Wilson will get signed. And he will start somewhere in 2024. But he won't make it a full season there either because he is done. Personally if I was a GM no way in the world I'd touch him. Nah he benched him because he is bad. Yes they are protecting themselves against the injury guarantee - sure. But they wouldn't need to do that if he was good. He is garbage. Hence they are moving on. Hence the finance becomes an issue.

He has consistently produced though. Over the last season and a half he has been extremely consistent. The issue is the first two and a half years of his career and because he was a covid pick, no pre-season, and the Bills attempted a body transformation I think a LOT of teams will look past that. AJE is getting paid this spring. AJE will get a bigger deal than all 3 of them.

They are running a varient of the Shanny offense too. That requires playing WITHIN structue.

Agree. The Giants move makes some sense. The Commanders move makes none.

Fair play to the Packers. What a tit.

He will. But I predict he won't start a full season there either.

100%. If ever there is a case in modern times of stats hiding the story Russ in Denver is it.

He still held the ball way too long. Missed the opportunity to hit open guys and his short form accuracy has fallen off a cliff. Sure, he throws a nice deep ball. And Payton managed to create enough schemed throws. But Russell Wilson isn't close to the guy he was in his prime in Seattle. He is a low end starter at this point.

Statistically, sure. To the eyes test I still think he has been bad.

But he couldn't cover up the fact that Wilson sucks.

It was one of my bold predictions before the season. Wilson is finished.

Best post in the thread.

Because he had ruined relationships with pretty much everyone in the organisation. I don't know how many times it needs saying but Doug Pederson was not fired primarily for on field results. He was fired primarily for what happened in the building not on the field. The Bills coaches did a better job than the Bills players against the Chargers.

Untrue.
