Brian Daboll hired to be Head Coach of NY Giants
dgrochester55 replied to Draconator's topic in The Stadium Wall
I am glad that Daboll is getting a chance to coach somewhere. I wonder his he will take a lot of Bills castoffs in the same way that McDermott did with the Panthers in the beginning of his stint? If so, might I suggest starting with Edmunds? -
How many chances does McDermott have left?
dgrochester55 replied to Igotbills's topic in The Stadium Wall
4 playoff appearances in five years after a 16 year playoff drought. You know, the drought that happened when Buffalo switched coaches every two or three years? For every Bellichik and Reid out there, you have ten Dick Jaurons, Gregg Williams and Mike Mularkeys. An upgrade is not guaranteed if mcdermott is fired. Some changes and upgrades are needed in coaching and player personal, but McDermott has created a winning culture here. There is no need for a complete overhaul. The offense is where it needs to be and the defense can be too with a couple more players, a new coordinator and a better scheme. -
Honestly what do you do moving forward?
dgrochester55 replied to Milanos Milano's topic in The Stadium Wall
Replace frazier and upgrade the defense. Linebackers are the top priority in the offseason, add at least two starting caliber players. Keep milano as a starter and Klein as a backup. Get rid of Edmunds. After that, I don't know. Outside of Buffalo being good, NFL is so hard to watch for me. Terrible officiating across the board, Announcing is all about stories and narrative, excessive commercials. I am sure that I'll be back next year, I always am, but I have no desire to watch any more games this year and feel like I hit a breaking point with how much I can tolerate tonight. -
If the Bills re-sign Edmunds, they're stupid.
dgrochester55 replied to damj's topic in The Stadium Wall
Edmunds will command too much money to be worth resigning. Try to trade him, he would have some value. Let a team like Detroit or Jacksonville take a chance on him as the guy to rebuild their defenses and be happy with him until they play the big teams in the playoffs. -
Can't wait for Frazier to leave
dgrochester55 replied to Bermuda Triangle's topic in The Stadium Wall
Take edmunds with him and find a pro bowl caliber linebacker to replace him. This defense has pretty good people but needs a top player who is also a leader. -
I feel bad for Allen, there is nothing else that he could have possibly done more to win that game besides getting out there and covering Kelce or Hill himself.
-
Coaching killed us. Hopefully someone takes Frazier off our hands and Buffalo can add at least one true pro bowl caliber defensive player to the front seven. Defense is just fine against bad teams and rookie quarterbacks but is useless against the top tier of offenses.

Today shows why including a 7th seed in the playoffs adds nothing of value to anyone besides advertisers.

Flores turned a team that was gutted and predicted to be winless by many before 2019 into a borderline playoff contender in seasons two and three. Seems like a premature move to fire him since the next coach isn't guaranteed to be better, but I have no problem with a division rival making poor decisions and switching systems every two or three years.

flashback 2018 espn draft coverage of Josh pick
dgrochester55 replied to First Round Bust's topic in The Stadium Wall
I remember seeing Allen for the first time in the Infamous college game against Iowa st where he threw five interceptions, hearing that he was a first round prospect and thinking "great watch the Bills be the team dumb enough to pick him". I had a more open mind at the time of my post that was referenced a couple posts back but remember thinking that he would need a couple years on the bench to have a chance at being good. I also thought that Sam Darnold was the most complete QB before than draft so it tells how much I know. I am glad to be wrong on Allen, but I think that he has exceeded almost everyone's expectations by now. The only question will be whether him or Jim Kelly will be seen as the best Bills QB of all time when Allen's career is done. -
Ian Book's stat line brings me back to the Losman/Edwards days and makes me thankful for what we have today.

The Bills are quietly the hottest team in the NFL
dgrochester55 replied to Hermes's topic in The Stadium Wall
Maybe not the hottest team yet, but they have played quality football again since the second half of the Tampa game. I am still worried about the run defense when it comes to the playoffs, but have more hope that they can stay hot and make a run then I did a few weeks ago. -
Hopefully Beasley will restructure, it seems that many other Bills have been willing to do this recently. With his current price and the needs ot the team going into the next season, he may be a necessary price cut otherwise.

A friend of mine is driving in Connecticut to see family and listening to the game on the local patriots radio. He says that the announcers have been referring to McDermott as papa smurf and taking pot shots at the city of Buffalo the entire game. He is a Jets fan and hates both teams equally, so for him to call the announcers classless must mean that they are pretty bad.

Bills' Spencer Brown fined $5K for celebrating TD with fan's beer
dgrochester55 replied to HOUSE's topic in The Stadium Wall
5000 is pricey for a beer. He could have gotten about 20 Sam Adams Utopias for that -
[edit: Jaguars LB Josh Allen] tests positive for COVID-19
dgrochester55 replied to cv05's topic in The Stadium Wall
Announcers from Bills Jags game "Josh Allen got COVID from Josh Allen!! Wow! Can you believe it!" -
Sure buddy. It was political, you know it and I know it.
-
Thank you for following the board rules about not making COVID talks political
-
What frustrates me is that they will not move this game unless the Pats had to put more key people on the COVID list.
