RoyBatty is alive

He is a loudmouth drunk with zero real value added insight. Dont waste your time listening.

Expose another sophomoric attempt at a veiled dump on McDermott thread, that is your point/your thread. i think we got it.

Why are you here Chaos? Seriuosly? Do you think have Brady on a hometown discount for two decades had anything to do with the genius of Bliichek?

Who were the players, too lazy too look up the roster. That was a FANTASTIC game, had too much red thanksgiving wife, wife still hates me.

1) That is pretty funny and great analogue. 2) Can we all stop trying to be "outraged" and offended about trivial matters. So you might be offended about his Lovie Smith comment, he might be offended about your Jesus beard? Are anyone of us making real "progress".

I was describing Detroit, not the Lions. I actually like Dan Campbell, we were lucky to beat them last year, after our game they wont an a tear and if they beat us, they would have won 7 in a row.

Keep in mind, we now have Harris.

Ehh, still an ugly color concept, very reflective of Detroit, bland and outdated.

Tua is not a functional idiot, there is no way Tua does NOT know about his history.

Great hope he does. we get their Damien Harris on a reasonable contract. Pats get Ezekiel Elliot's ego and lineage, he will be grossly overpaid even though he is way over the hill.

Is this for real??

Correct, players also bare responsibility. I agree on McDermott and Beane, Bill fane expectations now are ridiculously high, SB or you are a failure. Josh Allen gave the Vikings the game last year, almost single handed, his endzone fumble comic and right there ANY shot at MVVP was gone, imo. I would like to know on all the deep throws were those on Dorsey of JAs call, or on both?. Unfortunately, they often were the "correct" risk adjusted calls with the defensive looks we saw.

Natural fan emotion but the hate is irrational and started out from day one.. Dabol was about to be run out of town the first few games as OC, then he proved himself. You move on from a successful coordinator or HC and the person to follow is at a massive PR disadvantage.

I was excited when they got Rex, after his KC fiasco of botched calls and not knowing how instant replay worked I was done with him Jauron, the walking dead, was arguably the best coach we had in the drought years. He had garbage for rosters and QBs, how he manufactured 7 win seasons esp at the height of tom Brady was really incredible.

I understand and could probably agree with your assertion, which would hold true for most fan bases but the particular examples you used were VERY poor. Both Kiko and Especially Rex I grew to despise and not because they left the Bills. In Fact, I recall the exact day I turned on Rex, after a loss to KC when Rex missed two easy challenges and called for two terrible challenges which we lost both, because of those dim-witted decisions we lost the game including on turnover which clearly should have been challenged. Then to top it off Rex after being an NFL HC for 7 seasons let it slip he didnt know how the replay system work. When I heard that, in near disbelief, I was done with Rex. Kiko was always a a bit crazy going back to his college days, my favorite was when Josh Allen made Kiko look like a fool twice on the same play out running him.

Jarius Byrd was wildly overated, he was the lucky recipient of many bad QB throws, notbaly mark Sanchez. I think he got 3 of Sanchez in 1 year. All Byrd do was play center field safety, to his credit he did catch the balls. He didnt do much at all in New Orleans.

He would give Einstein a run for his money as to which is the best

You dont have to repeat yourself, I got the point from your long winded response to how disappointed you were last year. And the "we don't know yet has to be better" can by your mindset, not mine.

I agree. I think our top three picks were fantastic, all with very high ceiling (or least as a high a ceiling as a Guard can have).

Correct, the Bills were favored, , I guess it is psychologically hard for me to believe that after last year. That underscores the over the top hype this team had last year, a Vegas favorite over the defending SB camps on the road. Not so sure about the Eagles not being SB contenders at the start of last year.

As for each sector: Secondary: Push...Hyde and Poyer one year older both presumably health, Damar major question mark, Rapp is a positive, CB play should improve as White MAY have recovered more and still have hope for Kaiir Elam to transform into a stud. Se what a second season for a healthy Benford can translate to. LB: Push. Finally no more questions about Edmunds, we will see what he has in Chicago. I am a huge believer in the alleged undersized rookie Dorian Williams. D Line: Modestly Better. Continued growth the Rousseau, Von will be modestly better due to availability but lose with his age and ACL recovery. Poona and Floyd will be both be major additions. See if Ed Oliver can get more awareness and live up to his new contract. Coaching: No more Frazier to blame on 13 seconds, not all on McD. Defense overall, modestly improved. Running Back Much better. FINALLY we have some speed at the position. Cook could have a breakout year, especially with the improvement in the interior O Line. Cook was the rookie victim of his first carry a fumble which put him in the doghouse, yet he STILL had and impressive 5.7 yards a carry and easily could have had 1,000 had they trusted him more. Plus he is dynamic as a pass catcher and could even line up as WR. To compliment him we have a legit power broker in Damien Harris. A full year of Hines and I will say almost a plus no more Singletary and Moss (just two mediocre slow RBs). OLine: Much Better. MAYBE we have solved the guard positions with Torrence who easily could have been a rd1 selection then McGovern/Edwards on the opposite side. Bates is serviceable (and play multiple positions). Also have Broker On tackle, one more year for Spencer long to "get it", Dawkins should be hitting his prime. We have Shell from Miami, great pickup. Don't sleep on URFA Gouraige from Florida, my dark horse to make the PS then move up. TE: Better. Addition of Kincaid speaks for itself. He can open up so many creative offensive mismatches. I am also a big believer in him. WR: Modestly worse. Diggs getting older and cautiously optimistic his attitude is on correct. Davis, a crap shot. Hardy, Sheffield and Shorter (potentially) decent backups. Overall I would say the team has improved. Now I am putting a lot on our top 3 rookies (yes I know McD doesn't like to play rookies much), I think all three of them will develop into solid starters and the ceiling on Kincaid is very high imo.

I believe we have learned that predicting schedules so far it is way too premature. Look at last year, we opened up against the SB Champs on the road. Heavy underdogs and we crushed them as they were one of the worst teams in the league. As far as last year, the hype was through the stratosphere, I think (hope) last year and the way it ended was the "new era Bills regression".

Agreed, but not nearly as cool as the two TEs who wil be on the Bills, Dawson Knox and Dalton Kincaid,

No idea who that is, hope he is OK and will get another shot. I just read, a young new tight end, hope he is mentality ok as well. His dream may have just exploded on him.
