You know they are all talking on the headsets, including the coordinators,... he should just make it a policy to defer these decisions to his coordinators since he's obviously not good at it, they are both quick on their feet (mentally), and they both want to be head coaches eventually... they have got to do something different. Being uber prepared and thinking you've got every scenario perfectly pegged ahead of time obviously isn't working

Can we hire Tom Brady?!?! How much is Fox paying him?

He's got a nose for COLOR commentary.

Complimentary football - yes! Finally, this year, tickets are free.

This thread is a great example of why we DON'T have more solid in stadium song traditions other than the Shout song. Hard to find a single song that four different generations and more than a few cultural traditions and tastes within each generation can actually agree on, lol.

Wow, lots of sneering... at trade deadline this could be quite relevant depending on team records then

Yes!! We beat the Chiefs!!

As far as trash talking, I'm pretty sure he is having fun with it vs. someone who takes themselves very seriously and is cut throat about sh*ttng on others. I'm guessing he'll say other QBs just really need to raise their trash talk game, lol

Seriously, regardless of how you FEEL about the hype or the story, can't we acknowledge how rare and impressive it is for anyone to make it from rookie camp tryout onto the active roster in the same year.

Is any fanbase more in sync with their team? More emotionally wedded to their team? More anxious when the heart of the team maybe doesn't feel quite... in rhythm? This may be hyperbole, but I feel as if BB MD is using the body of Buffalo Bills Fandom as a gauge for the extent to which the heart of this team; players AND coaches, can be resuscitated. A lot of people here have said it, not just me... I've never been more anguished; and more in grief over this team, than I was in January. I had to completely unplug. I'm sure the team sees it on social media, call in shows, podcast streams, etc. For many, the extreme detachment this year was real. I get it... the salary cap is real; but Beane did not have to be so hardcore about it... Well, like I began to say; Beane got out the AED machine... Assuming the TV shows are right, the first shock is not the strongest. You want to make sure you don't over shock the system. But... you do come in strong... make the ticking time and effort worth a try. CLEAR!!!!! (Poyer, Morse, Hyde) thump... no reaction from the body. CLEAR!!!!! (Davis, Neal, Jackson, Matakevitch, Von Miller paycut) thump... no reaction CLEAR!! (Tre White) the body shifts a bit... still not enough. CLEAR!!! (Diggs trade!) And at last... the body of the Buffalo Bills Fanbase is convulsing on the table: spitting, trembling and groaning, but the pulse is back people! The will to fight together again... to live another day and struggle for survival and success. Put another way,... they've hooked me again, lol

Good points. Weighing salary vs. pick values... if the proven vet options are too expensive, I think I'd like to get a WR in the high 2nd round this year, rather than sit tight or trade up.

Not a knock on Sammy specifically. My point is that we could have had Kelvin Benjamin! errr.... I mean, Davante Adams... OR.... Jordan Matthew's, Jarvis Landry, Allen Robinson. But we threw in picks to get up to Watkins/ Mike Evans / OBJ territory and struck out. Rather than either of those scenarios, I'd rather trade the mid to low first rounder for a proven commodity. Who would that have been in 2014? I don’t know. Not sure if the right guy exists this year either, but it would be my preference if possible.

Doug Whaley says, think twice... Seriously, why not do what we did to get Diggs? The low first rounder should be enough to get a proven vet #1 instead of giving up another pick in order to try to get the unknown rookie who might, just might, be a generational talent...

Your defensive minded head coach is one of the unanimous votes on the competition committee, right? Everyone's comments are aimed at nameless, faceless "the NFL" but one of them takes questions from the local media every week. In other news, I love the phrase "un-weights himself" I'm going to use that when it's time to chill out on the couch. Honey, I'm just going to un-weight myself now...
