  1. Regardless of what they do in the draft regarding the QB position, they still need a veteran. If they can't find anyone better than Tyrod, he sticks. I hope that isn't the case. If it is, hopefully Daboll can get more out of him.
  2. He was good enough to get them to the AFC Championship.
  3. Taylor is gone. Smith is cheaper than Cousins and I don't think the drop off is that great. Hopefully we strike gold in the 2nd rd or Peterman develops.
  4. Flutie came cheap and he did okay. Probably would have taken the Bills to the SB if it weren't for a meddling owner. They played at a Hall of Fame Level afterward they were trade or became free agents. Anyway, there are always exceptions to the rule. What potential Hall of Fame QB do you see available now?
  5. You upgrade the position while not sacrificing building a team. Smith is an upgrade over Taylor and Cousins isn't an elite QB and won't carry a team like a HOF QB. Is Smith good enough to win a SB? Maybe with the right supporting cast. Is there a HOF QB in the draft? It doesn't appear so to me, but who knows.
  6. Well if there are modest short term goals, winning a Super Bowl is a long range goal, and you think there is a HOF QB in the draft, you bet the ranch. I don't think that's the Bills' mentality.
  7. No team is going to let a HOF QB go. The only way to get one is through the draft, and the chances of that happening, even with a high pick are low. Let's work backwards. What is the goal? It should be to win the Super Bowl. Given that assumption, the question is what QB is capable of getting us there. If you think he is in the draft, the question becomes what will it cost to get him. Of course, a QB alone will not get you to the Super Bowl. If the player you want costs too much that you can't assemble the complementary pieces, what do you do? Absorb some losing years while you build around him and hope he develops as planned, or pass and look in free agency? If you are looking in free agency, you obviously want to upgrade the position. Again, you need to look at the cost versus what that cost means as far as sacrificing other positions. You want to pay the least you can so you can build a team while still having a shot at a championship. So, who fits that category. Cousins perhaps, but he won't come cheap so maybe that rules him out. The question then becomes what free agent is better than Taylor. It seems there are a few out there. My best guess? We sign Alex Smith and draft a QB that falls to us in Round 2.
  8. What do you think will happen to the O-Line in the off season? Do the Bills trade Cordy Glenn? If they keep Glenn, do they move him to RT or guard, or do they keep him at LT and move Dawkins to RT or guard? Does John Miller get rehabilitated with the new OC? Do they resign Henderson? Do they dump Mills and Ducasse? Will O-Line be a priority in the draft? Who do they sign in free agency?
  9. If he’s good enough for Nick Saban, he’s good enough for me. Roll Tide!
  10. Look what he did with Tua. Now give him a QB who can throw the ball.
  11. He was trained by the best coach in history, Nick Saban.
  12. Roll Tide, baby, Roll Tide! Cue up the fight song.
  13. Celebrating Bama style. http://ftw.usatoday.com/2018/01/alabama-fans-reaction-video-tuscaloosa-party-georgia-cfp-college-football-playoff-national-title-celebration
  14. Was anyone else surprised that Alabama played for the FG at the end of regulation time? Given that the kicker was shaky, I thought that they should have gone for a TD.
  15. Roll Tide! Tua is the real deal.
  16. Don’t forget overturning Zach Miller’s TD catch when he destroyed his knee.
  17. At the very least, have a time limit. If it takes 10 minutes to decide, there can’t be compelling evidence to overturn the call.
  18. When the TD was overturned.
  19. The offense managed 3 field goals and we were still in it for most of the game. The only TD was scored by the D. And you are claiming we lost because of the defense?
  20. The offense managed 3 field goals yesterday. Pathetic.
  21. On the 4th down play near the goaline yesterday, he looked down McCoy and threw the ball at his feet. That was sad. I would like to see the offensive stats for this year vs last year. Dennison needs to be shown the door too.
  22. No mention of the horrific play calling or the poor coaching decisions, like going for a 50 yrd FG when we were down by 7 and the ball wasn’t carrying in the cold, damp weather? If I could see Hauska struggling with long kicks in warmup, why couldn’t the coaches?
  23. Can’t be competitive without a good QB and we don’t have one.
  24. 95% from 50 yards in cold, damp weather? You are kidding, right?
