Um, yes. I am damn proud this team pulled it together and finished where they did.
The standard for the whiny crowd is to cry that everything is awful and downplay every positive. Keyboard temper tantrums, stick fingers in ears and shout ‘NO!’ over and over and over again.
Congrats, we are both doing our jobs.
(Even though I’ve said multiple times that we need to move on from McD)
All free agents but Poyer saves 6 million with a release.
Also worth pointing out, those old guys were the only guys who stayed healthy.
Benford, Bernard, Dodson, White, Milano all under 30.
The lone perk with that is whoever they hire as OC, they’ll know if he’s their guy for 2025.
Lion’s OC seems destined to be hired this summer, haven’t heard if Houston’s OC will return or not.
Agreed.
Let’s say Bills get themselves a top flight OC and McD has himself a year as the HC/DC. That OC will leave for a promotion and Allen will be learning ANOTHER new system.
Part of me wonders what it looks like with DaBoll…
I think this is likely since I doubt beat wants to add -3 to the -43 million.
Their are some kickers who are scheduled to be FAs, though…
Technically he wasn’t. His 87% was middle-just above middle of the pack.
Still solid though. Hopefully he can work through it.

I believe he’s 9-10 in his career for game tying and winning kicks.
Few things:
1 - Almost missed doesn’t count if almost made it doesn’t count.
2 - He’s the 17th highest paid kicker in 2023
3 - 12th highest paid kicker in 2024.
As much as I like and respect McD, and the players clearly do too, I can’t shake the feeling he isn’t what this team needs and the team should look to “mutually part ways”
KC proved time and time again that a top flight offensive system and elite QB can hide/overcome areas of deficiency.
Not to mention the last 2 seasons we have played a couple of 3rd string QBs in the wildcard.
