  1. I dont see buffalo having 2 top 20 picks to go along with 2 second rd picks again anytime soon. They have plenty of ammo to move up. They most likely could move up by trading both ones this year and a conditional pick next year. Still leaves 2 seconds and a third to fill holes on the roster. going after Cousins is an option but im not sure he can lead us past the Patriots or to a superbowl. If you have are going to pay him 30 mil a year that is the expectations. That move though would leave the picks intacted to reshape the roster around him. I dont care which way they go but they need to go into training camp with a bonafide NFL quarterback with franchise potential.
  2. Most of the good coaches are the same way. Bill Billiecheck or Parcells, Jimmy Johnson, Jim Harbuagh are just to name a few. That is the stereo typical profile of a Ceo or leader in any profession. History has turned out in Marrone's favor. Russel Brand not being a football guy. Whaley having too much authority. Then the personal decisions Ej down to trading up for Watkins. Pegula was too new to make an informed decision on the front office or head coach. Imo he was forced to choose and without the proper information he made the wrong one probably because Whaley and Brand were likable and Marrone was not. That is why he looking for a football Czar. He is not a football fan or lifer, he didnt understand the culture and have the ability to determine what good talent in the industry looks acts and feels like.
  3. It was my understanding he was requesting more power and changes to the organization hierarchy. I think Schefter or another insider reported that about the departure. Pegulas offered him more money instead.
  4. Its harder to find a good coach than a GM. Marrone is a good coach. The Pegulas should have met his demands and extended him. That is their biggest mistake thus far. Marrone and Taylor would have worked well.
  5. The majortity of the moves helped climb Buffalo out of the cap hole they were in and arms them with a wide range of picks. Simply about qbs, they need to find one with potential to be a franchise qb. I consider peterman a developmenatal backup. I would bring in a vet to battle with the rookie top pick.
  6. No their flyier is on the bench with 5 ints.
  7. The offense equivalent for only stopping them once and that is turnover in the redzone to me would be picking up 1 first down and scoring 3 points. Just so happens Taylor got both of those things on the first drive of the game. We are splitting hairs. The team played poor. The offense played just as poor as the defense.
  8. It was a terrible performance and I 100% question the effort of all 53 guys. Taylor is the unquestioned leader and as leader he is in part responsible for his own effort and the teams overall. Both were questionable at best and the result was dreadful. His benching after that game to me is justified. You can agree or disagree thats fine. The thread wanted to hear from someone who thought Peterman should start. I am saying I was ok with anyone starting in LA that wasn't Tyrod. Peterman was just the next guy up. I own a Taylor jersey, I think he still has the ablity to lead the team but that game wont get it done and wont keep you on the team.
  9. Third and 10 you can not call a screeen or draw every time. Im not protecting Peterman's poor performance. Your an NFL qb you are going to need to perform like one regardless of draft status.
  10. You watch the game? What do you call checking it down on 3 straight 3rd and longs when your down by 14 than 21 than 28? 3 straight 3 and outs. Either he was confused by a basic coverage, which was used three staight possessions, or you know the game is lost and dont was to throw an INT because you dont want to effect your stat line IE give up.
  11. Yes Peterman crapping himself in La was bad and a bad look for the franchise but that team was heading in the same direction the team has went the last 10 years. Taylor showed so little interest and effort vs the Saints I would not have been surprised if they stuck with Peterman even after his 5 int performance. That was why Taylor was benched. sure the team is gonna sputter but as the Qb you do anything to try and right the ship, ig you dont it apears that you quit. That is what it looked like to me. Game was getting out of hand but he wasnt going to hurt his TD to INT ratio to try and make that game respectable. Hell I respect Peterman still chucking the ball after 2 than 3 than 4 and than the 5th. They took him out because he could have ended up with an amount no QB could have beaten, because he was going to keep throwing. That is the complete opposite of the performance Taylor had vs No. Sure its embarrassing but atleast I can respect this effort.
  12. They got extremely lucky for Manning to have a severe neck injury the same time Luck and RG3 came out. That franchise has not been run smart so I cannot think of a scenerio where they plan that tank. They expected Manning back and were left with their pants down when he couldn't make it back on the field. Much of the same way they were with Luck this year safe for the trade for Brissett. If they are that smart why not do the same thing this year. Get a top 2 pick trade it to the highest bidder or Luck to the highest bidder.
  13. This. Buffalo is never going to have a better opportunity to move up and get franchise caliber/ potential Qb than this year. Even with Darnold staying at school their are 3-4 1st rd caliber qbs. 2 or 3 could even be top 10 top 5 caliber prospects. With the way Watson performed that would seem to help Lamar Jackson's NFL Potential. Find a team with a qb in the top 5 work out a package to move up and get your guy. Buffalo has such a surplus of picks they have the ability to move to any position on the draft board and still have picks left over to improve the roster for the current year.
  14. Regardless of the results and outcome, Taylor's performance against the Saints was worthy of him being benched. Regardless of what was said that move had everything to do with Taylor's performance not Peterman's growth. Going back to Taylor was do able with the way the move was handled. Sure Mcdermott has pie on his face but if the team plays with more urgency after the move then I would still consider it a success. The team was falling back to the same season routine that has plagued the franchise for 17 years. I am glad a coach decided to do something to change the course.
  15. With how well Dawkins is playing I would move one to LT. I would keep the more athletic guy at LT the otehr I would move to RT. Likely Dawkins LT Glenn RT. Protect the Qb.
  16. I like it 11-5 home playoff game and a bye. That is highly unrealistic. Playing the dolphins twice in 3 weeks will be extremely hard.
  17. I really would not want a smallish guy playing Qb in Buffalo. Get a big kid with an arm who can sling it when the weather is poor. Rosen or Rudulph.
  18. Im a fairly optimistic person and fan. Vs the Pats though its hard for me to see this team beating them.
  19. Brady is super salty and sensative. However, this is really blown out of proportion. Seems like was asked about one of the numerous embarrassing stats Brady has against Buffalo. His anwser is I dont know about all that. Im here now focused on this game. Standard answer just a twisting of words. Hopefully, Brady tries to make a point and white makes some plays off him.
  20. An early pick needs to be a RB but not before QB.
  21. A Patriot fan was claiming Billicheck was behind Parcells rings. But the nucleus of the early Patriots defense was drafted by Parcells, and Bill Parcells turned around the Jets, Patriots, and Cowboys. Hell last year Romo and Witten will still leading the team both guys Parcells brought in. I am not a Patriot fan. I respect Billicheck as a defensive mind and dynasty he has made but I also believe there is no Dynasty without Brady.
  22. Im talking about Parcell's not Billicheck. Go back to the beginning of the thread. Billicheck is a great defensive mind but fell into Brady.
  23. He is a boom or bust type prospect. If I missed out on Rosen than I would strongly consider Mayfiled. Maybe a move to around 10. Give up a fist next year and keep the majority of picks this year. There are plenty of options, hopefully they make the right choice. He is the most divisive prospect but I think he is more moxy than Manziel.
  24. Yes he was and those teams were defense driven. He had a great eye for talent and turned around every team he coached. The Patriots, Jets and Cowboys had hall of fame caliber player after he left.
  25. Bill Parcells might be the most under rated coach because the best QB he ever had was Phil Simms.
