This morning I saw a post where someone had Luck as a top 5 and my immediate thought was he was a step down from there. I tried to do the mental exercise, but life got in the way. Thanks for doing the legwork. By and large you nailed it IMO.
-
I think we can be both eternally grateful for their efforts in keeping the teams here, and also demand more in terms of on-field/on-ice product.
Just keeping the teams in Buffalo doesn't earn anyone a free pass -- it earns our sincere thanks and gratitude. Now get to work.
That's pretty much where I'm at.
-
he's also being considered for Canes OC
Buffalo or Miami...hope it doesn't come down to the weather.
he just resigned Monday night from the panthers.
Can't imagine this would happen, but could the Panthers still block a move?
-
In another post someone suggested that McD couldn't hire offensive coaches unless they knew who the OC would be. That made sense to me and now it appears that Dorsey could be the missing puzzle piece. But why so long for the interview? Maybe he was on vacation?
-
No thanks. He can be as good as it gets at WR but he dropped a ton of passes this year and more to the point I'm pretty sure he's never been to the playoffs. Not a good fit for a team with a playoff drought.
-
This is nothing against Anthony Lynn, I wish him no ill will (except when they play the Bills), but remember when he mistakenly announced Cardale Jones as the starter instead of EJ? Well, he was at it again nearly calling his new team the San Diego Chargers.
Both minor mistakes, probably nerves, I just found it interesting.
-
Bedrooms or bathrooms? Maybe bathrooms if Rob visits a lot. You'd need backups.
There's a lap belt joke in there somewhere.
-
I was trying to be tactful and kind.
And you were, I appreciate both...I think we're cut from the same cloth.
-
Only the effing Patriots could think a ball that travels 10 yards from a QB's hand could be a fumble.
-
Getting smaller, cutting out markets and reducing revenue is
probablynot on the league's agenda.Fixed
-
A better game than I expected. To me its a reminder of the importance of defense in the post season.
-
Downsize? Did you say downsize?
I can't imagine that's been given much if any thought by the NFL or NFLPA. On the contrary it's all about expansion...outside of the U.S.
Has any of the major sports ever contracted? Can't think of one, maybe hockey? I think it's all been relocations, no?
-
The idiots on the team are also the best players on the team. Good luck with that. Jerry Hughes is an idiot but when you can get 10+ sacks in this league you are untouchable

Saw the topic, noticed the poster, ignored the original post and went straight to the post replies. Great stuff.
-
4.5 thoughts until the feed broke:
- McD looks cool, confident and in charge. I like him so far.
- Poor Whaley looks castrated and defeated.
- Jerry Sullivan, the eternal hack with one shtick -- relentless negativity -- needs to lay off.
- I'd like for the Bills organization to grow some balls and question The News' performance, which from my viewpoint is not playoff worthy either.
- Mmm...Buffalo Water™.
i'm not defending the press but that's a recipe for disaster.
-
Not sure if this has already been posted but at least one disgruntled Charger took out his frustration an old-fashioned way:

I think he goes where he believes he can get back to being a head coach the quickest. If he chooses the Bills that is a very positive sign.
Great take.
-
Yeah but unless Lynn professes how he wants to be here in Buffalo, the team that decided not to make him their next HC, now they want him to continue on as the OC. Yes I get it that he's under contract, but at this level, unless the guy for some strange reason has 0% bitterness towards the Bills, no regrets at all, he'll be gone. Can't recall of other times when a guy presently on staff interviewed for HC position of same team, was not selected, but then went back to his old position on the staff. It just doesn't work that way
I hear ya and no doubt we would not want to hold Lynn hostage, but the flip side is that he started the season as RB coach, was elevated to OC and considered for HC. If he doesn't get a HC offer I could see him staying. The career path to HC in the NFL is not always from the org that you got your start in.
Oh yeah there are. No salary cap for coaches. It's a great place for a free spending owner to go nuts.
OK, but does it happen? I can't recall a OC/DC going to a new city based on $$
Maybe Garret waiting his turn in Dallas.
-
I never gave this much thought until today. Are there bidding wars for OC/DC coordinators?
-
If Carr hadn't got hurt, likely Oakland would have won the division, so instead would have been KC at Houston, or could it have been Miami at Houston?
But thinking with Carr healthy Oakland didn't play this weekend.
Totally agree that the loss of Carr weakened the playoffs. Even if they didn't win the division they would have beaten the Texans.
Pats-Raiders for the first time since the Raiders got ripped off by the "tuck rule" would've been must see.
-
The under current to this post is that making the playoffs is good enough. That's not where I'm at.
I see it as a progression. You need to make the playoffs first. Then shoot for a win...if it's in the same year great, otherwise shore up the weaknesses and look for continual improvement and becoming a contender every year.
The Lions seem to be stuck in neutral. The Dolphins haven't found consistency. Another example is the Texans. That's not what I want.
I thought the worst part of the Derek Carr injury was the Raiders got robbed of a productive playoff experience. They would have been competitive with Carr and maybe won a game, but the defense would've been exposed at some point.
-
So in this post you say the Bills WILL be a disaster, and then 15 minutes later you post "Bills SHOULD let Tyrod go and sign EJ to a one year deal." with the premise of tanking for a top pick. I am anxiously awaiting the COULD be a disaster post.
-
To the mods: there should be a statue of limitations for how long this thread is allowed to go on.

None of those guys are getting hired...it's a mute point.
Sorry, but I'm still going to miss Hogan

Personally, I appreciate all the posts ridiculing the notion that the Bills blew it by letting Hogan "get away".
