you can not possibly know what was said to Oliver privately or not. And if you are going to quote something lets quote it proper. “Just continue to play the game as much as possible from the neck up,” (people on these boards have destroyed this comment) Continue to is a far cry from saying "he needs to start to" << assumptions made that this is the case by some on these boards. https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2023/06/02/bills-defensive-line-coach-wants-to-see-ed-oliver-play-football-from-the-neck-up/

this is laughable.

TY Simon...

you just said " That's why I don't do it. " AND THEN say this.. Some people simply have emotional trouble with opinions that aren't in their team view. Stop it

The second a person has to lead to personal insulting to prove a point is the second their point is lost. This type of posting is what I hope to see less of on these boards.

That is why we SHOULD be playing that big one tech DT next to him all the time.

there are 2 horrible narratives rolling around Bills Nation. 1. Is that he is being over paid. 2, complaining about a guy that does not produce. I recently looked at pff at the games he has played? His based numbers are low and if you want to talk about the injuries issues @Simon brought up then that is understandable. But.. his pff scores when he does play? does have him lower not higher then a top 15 paid DI The question still stands... how many of those games was he injured and how much his injuries affected his game play over the last 4 years. Time will tell.

the point is.. you do not want to sit on a player that has a potential to blow up his prior years numbers and then you can not afford him.... (Cough Edmunds)

yep.. some on here are just not realistic. is what it is

omg preach on.. ty...

this is so hard. #1 I think you have to talk top 15 not top 10 seeing he is being paid a top 15. #2 its so hard to tell when a player is still struggling with an injury.

lol! all in good humor man. hope you realize that.. I been trying to keep it "lite" lately lol

your right.. i guess i was thinking of someone else.. I looked up his injury history? Damn...

This is 100% fair. Like i said. we are right a third of the time and wrong the rest lol. Your track record for being right is a little higher but seriously. only time will tell. I guess my point is? No point getting overly wrapped up over this in the now~ understand?

That is my only worry. But the only injury he has had so far is an ankle yes?

You and I both have been on train where you extend a player as cheap as you can because if a player gets hot that 5th year option year... then you can not afford it.

Its common knowledge that they collaborate together... one does not make decisions without others approval and we have an analytics team and other recourses for this exact reason.

come on man. this is common knowledge.

@LABILLBACKER yep.. the person that just gave me the eye roll knows he was one of them ha ha.. that is ok.. we go back and forth.. 2/3rds of the time your right... the last third i am right. all good bro lol

In short, it is a collaboration with this team.

There are only less then a handful of hc's in this league that run everything including last say... MCD is not one of them....

Your delusional if you think this is on McD. The Bills analytic team goes over these things... McD and his staff goes over these things... Claiming a HC is underperforming Defensive players over anything on offense is really every part of wrong.

cute.. but if they didn't see he was improving already? This contract never happens... Words Mean nothing in football... Contracts talk.

A month ago I said we should extend him, because if he balls out like an Edmunds year last year.. we would not afford him... I GOT SLAMMED for it.

Accept some of us did not look at that as a call out, just some things they feel he will improve upon.
