  1. Ao mckenzie got 2 years and 4.4 million? Thought it was 8 million.
  2. The OL struggled last year at times but down the stretch the five they had were playing quite well in both pass pro and run blocking down the stretch. What changes do you want to see from the starting 5? Interior backups will look different but I am good with Dawkins, Bates, Morse, Williams, Brown as starters. I think they still have to tender Bates. Morse and Williams have decent cap numbers you could move on from but you also create a hole by doing so. Williams stays because he can play tackle in my opinion but I would not find it shocking if they moved on depending on who they want to sign in FA. Bates also has versatility. In short, I think they need to add younger guys to develop inside like they did last year at tackle but OL is not a huge need.
  3. Ok fine. Can we change his position to “holder”?
  4. Beasley or McKenzie or another competent NFL vet and a draft pick to go along with Diggs, Davis and Kumerow.
  5. They have had to waive a lot of guys over the years, they have signed some but let more go. The narrative that the salary cap is not real is simply not true. Not saying you are saying this but you cannot just sign everyone you want. The cap is real, you can trade future cap for cap today but that catches up with you. It IS workable but it is also true that there is a day of reckoning at some point. You cannot have everyone you want by magically working numbers forever. The Saints are in a terrible position where all the manipulation they did last year resulted in being in the same boat this year. Pretty sure Payton left partly because they wont be able to have the resources he would want. https://www.nola.com/sports/saints/article_7144f39e-8671-11eb-b0ae-4788896c6439.html
  6. Yeah, pretty much what I said
  7. The bills ran a lot of three wr sets but few 4 wr sets. Davis was #4 and had a hard time getting snaps. With the cap position and other needs it is reasonable to say davis should be opposite Diggs and another sanders type signing is not needed. Don’t get me wrong more talent is better but there are lots of needs and limited resources. Slot is another thing. If you don’t have Beasley or McKenzie the. Something must be done.
  8. Does anyone know why this trade happened? It’s rare for someone of Wilsons caliber to be traded. I know there were rumors last year but what is the problem? Wilson and carol don’t get along?
  9. You have to wait and see guys the Bills sign vs guys lost.
  10. That is a huge violation. These guys are told they cannot gamble on the NFL very clearly.
  11. I went tot he game the next week in Green Bay and it was atrocious sitting in the stands. Allen had zero time and could not hit the broad side of a barn that day. He was inconsistent that year to say the least and his team was terrible.
  12. While the Steelers were relevant last year, everyone knew they were not going anywhere and noodle arm Ben was done. After a long run with Ben and SB aspirations year in and year out, it is not surprising there was a fall off in attention. Buffalo has experienced this also, the "Greatest comeback" playoff game was not even a sellout and not on local TV. 8000 tickets for 8 games assuming a ticket of $100 is 6.4 million. So paying a QB 50 million to make back 6.4 does not exactly make sense financially. It does make them competitive for a SB, that would be the point. Plus a lot of those tickets were sold but were no shows. And yeah each person might have bought an expensive hot dog and a couple beers too.
  13. Don't defend a hail mary and sidelines with 13 seconds left when the opponent just wants a FG attempt and they have timeouts. Seriously, if they had handled that situation differently we could be discussing a repeat. You can always improve but McDermott is not some idiot who uses the same gamplan every game like this appears to say. You reference the Pats as being someone that adapts and is versatile. How did that defense adapt in the wild card playoff game? The expectation of dominating every opponent is not something that is achievable in today's game. Not even the great Patriots can or have done that.
  14. I don't think you are stuck with it but the dead cap hit makes it tough, he has value, maybe not at his cap hit but cutting him creates a hole and you still have the dead cap. I think he stays.
  15. High risk/high reward. We don't need a guy who lives on IR at a very high salary. This year is reasonable then his contract kind of balloons up. I dont think this is the right play.
  16. Sounds good as a throwback, the white helmet is more appealing to me though and should be the main design moving forward.
  17. Actually I can do math just fine, I just misread the numbers. calm down dude
  18. stay on topic please
  19. If true, this has got to one of the most ridiculous things I have ever heard. Especially for an organization that is quite good at attention to details, it does not seem possible. But the ST coach is now gone too which might also be telling.
  20. Yeah, that is why the Bills pushed for it....they took the risk of "one year wonder", maybe things change when fans are in the stands, etc. Remember those thoughts/ideas? It was a good deal for both sides. Also, that is the way contracts go, you max out when its your turn, but while the cap is going up next years guys get more. Josh will get another at bat...
  21. Allen would not have won MVP if Rodgers did not exist this year, last year, maybe. Another QB would have won it if not for Rodgers. Rodgers low turnover numbers are outstanding and that is the area Josh can improve most to take the MVP. • Green Bay QB Aaron Rodgers – 39 votes. • Tampa Bay QB Tom Brady – 10 votes. • L.A. Rams WR Cooper Kupp – 1 vote.
  22. There are a lot of immigrants/foreigners that have no interest in the SB, not surprising at all.
