The Rock is also now on the Board.

Josh should have had better pocket awareness and sensed the pressure, but that split second it takes to shuffle the window for the pass may have been much tighter. I have zero issues with the call, the play was designed to be a TD.

Brady to OC, Babs to DC (or he’s leaving). Smiley gets one more season.

Tre White’s recovery is the wildcard. He should be back in October, Benford isn’t starting over him. Benford has the talent and tools to be an elite safety. His shortcoming also are hid better at safety.

He clearly wasn’t going through the motions, I think he hit his wall. Physically spent for the season. He certainly looked it.

Easy. 150+ targets the last 3 years is a LOT of wear and tear on the body, it caught up at the end of the year. I’m sure he will be good to start the year, but Bills should definitely spread it out more. 31 is too old for 150 targets a year.

Scapegoat

Catches just under 70% of passes thrown his way, consistent production. Injury issues in 20 and 21 but has stayed decently healthy in 22 and 23.

Just hit day 100 myself!

If White is still on the roster, Benford is depth. He is a phenomenal tackler with ball skills (talking Benford). Give me a healthy Tre White as CB2, Benford at FS, Duggers at SS. Elam and Jackson the primary backups at CB.

I’m no football fundamental expert, but I would think the techniques are different. Elam could transition to safety rather nicely.

Elam would be experimental, Benford would be an elite safety. All depends on Tre White and his recovery/willingness to take a pay cut. If White isn’t on the active roster, Douglas and Benford will be the starting CBs. I am super interested to see Elam get some reps at FS this summer, though.

I will now, sheesh.

Crazy to think Hyde, Poyer, and White could all be elsewhere next year.

Wonder if this causes that Lions OC to hold off one more year.

Worth noting that Tyler Bass is 9-10 all time in kicks to win or send a game to OT. It’s very thoughtful of you to show support to a player like that.

No, but we have hints for what his philosophy is from his time at UCLA(?) and Carolina for a season and a half. I wonder if Brady wasn’t confident in the installed passing concepts.

Worth keeping in mind: We don’t really know any context behind these stats, and we don’t know what a Joe Brady installed offense looks like. It may not really be a stretch to say that Joe Brady called a Ken Dorsey’s version of a modified Brian DaBoll’s offense.

I also am curious to see what a Joe Brady installed offense looks like.

Benford is born to be an elite safety, best case scenario is White returns and Benford moves.

I used to get super heated and emotional, I’d let the games impact my mood. My wife isn’t a Bills fan, she doesn’t follow any sport so is usually happy to get her husband back on Sundays. After my dad’s accident last year, death of my grandma and my wife’s grandpa, and a miscarriage, a football loss doesn’t hit like it used to. I love watching them play, and win, so if I get to watch 19 games instead of 17, that’s a huge bonus. I think a lot of us lose perspective on what this is: a game. It has no impact on our lives (or shouldn’t). I can confirm that a W doesn’t make bad times better, so a loss should never make good times bad. I’m always trying to remind myself of this perspective. It’s pretty rare that the “best team” wins the Super Bowl, luck and politics has more to play than any fan wants to admit. Maybe we will catch lightning in a bottle. Maybe we won’t.

So, to be clear, your beef with Diggs is his yardage production slipped and he didn’t talk to the media?

Possibly, I know Klein, Dodson, Kincaid, and Knox all left the game and came back.

I get that, but it’s pretty likely more defensive guys get added since on offense we probably only have to replace a few WRs and some RB depth. I think we will see David Edwards and Ty Johnson return. We may only see 4 impact additions on offense, while defense could have 6-7.

This thread is misleading, with the expiring contracts this offseason HAS to be defensive focused because we, game-day quality wise, have under contract: 1 DT 3 DE 3 LBers 1 Safety That’s before potentially needing to replace Poyer and White.
