  1. Glad to see the Sean Payton offensive philosophy play out. Scheme easy throws. Give josh 15 plus easy throws a game. Shallow crossers, screens flares to the back. Ask him to be the best Qb on the planet once or twice a game. Ask him to drop back and beat the defense on a 5 to 7 step drop less than 5 times a game. Make his job as easy as possible and he will be hard to stop. Joe Brady has done this for the most part. This is where Dorsey and even Daboll came up short imo.
  2. Right. Another second day pick and mid level FA at DT in the offseason. Not finding long term answers at DT in Nov. Jefferson and Phillips fill in behind Jones and Johnson. Allows them to play a bit less and use more bodies. With them being older should keep them fresh.
  3. He was penciled in as starter. Beane I believed said somewhere he envisioned him starting. Maybe Mcdermott. Either way Hamlin got every snap in the spring and Summer. Come week 1 too short a runway. Hamlin hasn’t slipped up all year and has been consistent as player. Imo Hamlin has earned the spot. It is not peewee football. It is pro football. Edwards is paid as a reserve spot starter. Due to availability he was passed on the depth chart. Hamlin has more equity with the franchise and his play hasnt warranted benching. Edwards feeling a way about it is crazy to me and probably is why he bounced around a bit.
  4. Carter is the long term answer.
  5. Doing a pick swap with 2 teams for dline help would have been viewed as Beane and Buffalo going for it. Similar moves but didn't require capital. Overall, think it was good business.
  6. Hard to argue with the 2 moves. Both know the defense. Buffalo needed Dline help. Jefferson used in the Smoot role makes sense to me. Phillips offers ok depth. No picks needed to do it.
  7. You have Allen at qb to make that read and throw 10/10 times. Like a bass Fg stops Mahomes? Gotta make him score a Td. As the game showed, have to score when provided the chance because it may not come later. I am content losing with the ball in Allen’s hand every time. Including the Houston game. Offense played like poo. Overtime wouldn't change that. If there is time left and the game is in the balance give Allen a chance at pulling it out.
  8. Quinton Jefferson over Phillips? Haven’t followed much of either. Seemed like Jefferson flashed a little with Cleveland when I watched them.
  9. They were all second and third wave FA. They were all beat out by players already on the roster or drafted in April. That is Beane’s mo. He hedges the biggest needs with rookies/young players with vets with starting experience. Biggest miss is Samuel. I think the lower leg injury/injuries have impacted him.
  10. Missed TC time due to injury. Missed some games as well. If he isnt the motion player and matchup player in the offense he wont have a consistent role. Coleman, Cooper, Hollins are outside and Shakir is the slot. Early down runs are working so more 12 and 13 sets are working which he isn't a part of. Thats really it. Some of his chances he hasn't been able to take advantage of. Samuel is as a good a wr 4 or 5 in the league. If he can get closer to 100% he will be a factor down the stretch.
  11. Does Jefferson have the juice left to play that role? He has always been a tweaner. Getting Carter back will be a big boost.
  12. Johnson is the only reason I would consider playing nickel against them. He would have held up at the point of attack better than Lewis or Ingram 1000%. Different game plan and different reasons for the rushing success looking at Baltimore and Miami. Miami had more room because the secondary for the most part was back. Miami attacked more up the middle than outside a bit of a tendency breaker imo. The issue vs Baltimore were run fits. Slot corner got abused.
  13. Id argue KC and Baltimore do not have Hill and Waddle. Not having Johnson hurt vs Baltimore. Against Kc I think they match up pretty good. The last 3 meetings against them show that. The linebackers and safeties were decimated in the playoff. That is the heart of KC’s passing attack. Healthy I like Buffalo’s chances. They struggled in the redzone Sunday. This year they have been pretty good. Seattle and NYJ redzone defense won those games.
  14. Yes. Mcdermott does not want to give up explosives in the run game. When he chooses he wants to. Ideally, entice the run with a light box. Generate a stop or negative play. Roll that into a third and long and get off the field.
  15. He killed us a few years back. Indy isn't the threat Baltimore with Lamar or Miami with Hill and Waddle were. This is a game Buffalo must snuff out the run, similar to Seattle.
  16. I hope it’s because they are finalizing a move and need a roster spot. But either way Mike Edwards wanted a role. Not a better safety than either starters. Not a better slot the Lewis. He wants out im cool. Cine might get a look and a jersey on game days for teams
  17. Get Taylor on the ground. Dont give up the bomb to Flacco. Thats it. Get Flacco off his spot and its a wrap at this stage of his career.
  18. Hopefully, that kick carries through for Bass. His kicking will be important.
  19. Mcdermott will not commit more bodies to stop the run vs Miami. Hill and Waddle is how they win.
  20. The media. All the pundits that find new ways to ***** on Allen.
  21. He will never run past coverage. With his style he wont really need 2. Back shoulder balls and over the shoulder catches can mitigate that. His physicality will create separation and aid his ability to win down the field outside. His explosiveness is real. His instincts as a ball carrier are real. Those last two things are what people skipped over in his evaluation imo. That makes him more than just a back shoulder 50/50 guy. Add all that up he has ability to win at every level of the field. By seasons end he will be the #1. He is well on his way.
  22. Lol feels like he tried a few times already
  23. Hamlin is second on the team in tackles and firsts in ints. Hard to say he has been a weakness. Besides the Bishop miscue on the Collins play, Buffalo hasn’t given up anything over top either. I think S is a need in the fans eyes. I think the staff is pleased with Hamlin and Rapp. Edwards wants out because injury is his only path to playing.
  24. Largest city in the US with a large fanbase. Probably large number of bets on NYJ early and flipped it 2 pts. 1.5 to -1.5 is 1.5 difference. The line wont be even. So there is no 0.
