He doesn’t have Tyreek Hill speed bro
He’s fast but there are too many people throwing out Tyreek Hill. There’s one Tyreek hill in the history of the league. No one else has ever had that kind of explosive speed. Maybe someone will eventually….but maybe not. He’s different
Xavier legette is 6'3 223 lbs and ran the same 4.29 hill ran amazing how fast he is for his size

I do like what I’ve seen of him. Big and strong hands. Doesn’t look slow, either.
He ran a 4.29 40.....the same speed tyreek ran 👀

His defensive coaching against Lamar and the Ravens in the 2020 playoffs win against them was great. Shutdown a Pro Bowl caliber QB who routinely burned opponents to 3 points. McDermott seems to have the Ravens number (beat them in 2022 too). That win in 2020 got us to the AFC title game. Allen didn't do much that game.
Other than that, nothing. Allen has carried us in other post season victories.
I think the weather gave defense the edge in both our wins vs baltimore....playoff game winds were gusting to 50mph...Tucker couldn't even kick a 30 yard fg and missed another

Walter Football’s latest mock draft has the Bills taking Xavier Leggette of South Carolina. He’s listed at 6’3”, 227#And runs a 4.29 40 👌

To me, that guy is Zac Robinson. Played in the league and is coming from the Rams staff. My issue is with a defensive head coach coach, the guy they hire becomes the CEO of the offense. I'd want a guy with more experience in that role and that's why I like Kingsbury or Arthur Smith even though their recent work has been less than stellar.
That will never happen

Does anyone think McDermott would allow an oc to come in here and run the offense how he sees fit? I know that won't happen.it happened with daboll and mcd isn't gonna let some oc come and wreck his vision....the process is surrounding yourself with all yes men that obey apparently
4 hours ago, beer can shower said:Would some candidates balk at coming here because of working for McDermott?
Absolutely bc McDermott only wants an oc who is gonna run the offense how he wants..no proven oc is coming here to ve told how he is allowed to run an offense
4 hours ago, TheyCallMeAndy said:OC for the Bills is actually a REALLY good spot. I think guys will come out of the woodwork.
Is it though? The rift between dabol and McDermott was over the way dabol ran the offense..mcd has a certain way he believes this offense needs to be and by damned that's the way its gonna be.......so mcd will hire guys who have little to no exp as oc and have them run his process

That's because THEY KNEW we couldn't score points to threaten their lead, period.
They knew just keep allen and an offense that can score in an instant off the field.....both offense and defense stunk vs Cincinnati but let's not act like this offense hasn't carried the weight while the defense completely collapses every season NUMEROUS times...if it wasn't for allen this team is sitting at .500 at best the last 5 seasons

They lost one game by being too aggressive. So…
McDermott just isn’t a clutch coach. Everything else I think he’s very good, but clutch moments are not his thing.
Clock management? Halftime adjustments? Challenges?..face it he simply isn't very good facing any good teams with a stud qb

We scored a grand total of TEN points for a game at HOME... that's not the defense's fault. It's the reason why Dorsey is out of a job because it bled into the 2023 season.
Cincinnati offense controlled that game no problems

McD and Beane just signed extensions. They're not going anywhere for at least a year and maybe two.
The notion that we've mainly focused on defense isn't accurate. The issue is some of our draft picks on offense haven't worked out (e.g. Ford, Moss,..Singletary and Knox were ok...). We just used our first two picks on offense last year, and the year before we took Cook in Rd2. Further, we spend more of our cap on offense than defense. Next year is projected to be ~163M offense vs 124M defense. We have greater long-term commitments on offense than defense. Lots of that is Josh, but you don't get to do this analysis pretending like Josh isn't going to cost 40m/yr. Expensive QBs mean there's less $$ to put talent around them.
Hindsight is easy. Two years ago we lost because we couldn't generate enough pressure with out front four, hence the Vonn signing. It didn't work out. We just as easily could've signed a WR and had them blow out their ACL.
We have used the majority of our early rounds on defense since bean and McDermott have been here and also our FA money.....it's not hard to research that statement and I still standby McDermott is the BIGGEST reason why we can't get over the hump

Year after year? I don't think they did last season either against Cincy... Josh and Dorsey STUNK in that game. This year they did but when you put it into context with regards to injuries, I stand by my statement.
Go look at the drives cincy had....McDermott defense played worse than allen......our oline was completely dominated by bengals it wasn't even a battle for bengals dline....they destroyed our line all game...but burrow just couldn't be forced off the field either....I think Cincinnati didn't punt until late 3rd quarter maybe 4th

I've been drawing the parallels to the Marty/Norv Chargers regarding this team for a couple of years now.
I don't foresee any significant changes in management and I doubt that they will ever put the weapons around him that he had in 2020 again............so that would portend similar play style and results for a few years........and by then he might not have the ability to bully his way to victory when all else fails.
So my guess would be that he ends up like a Philip Rivers. But there is plenty of time to change that narrative.
He is obviously a lot more like Elway as a player but he hasn't reached any SB's like Elway did and I don't see him playing as long and at the level of Elway because of all the running he does. Elway rarely ran the ball.
This is exactly what will happen with this regime if we allow them to waste the 2nd half of Allen's career

Diggs production drop off comes right as brady took over....take from that what you may ...I feel our identity on offense keeps being tinkered with and is being made into what our HC envisons....that in itself is concerning bc mcd isn't an offensive minded guy....we are a grind it out ball control offense now....we will give cook as many touches as allen and when allen is dropping back we are asking for short quick throws a ton also

It obviously wasn’t a sure thing. If it was then it would have been a TD.
No play is a sure thing...a simple hand off or even kneel down could have negative things happen....but if Dawkins holds his block that's as sure of a td as you will get.....allen doesn't miss that throw without getting contacted just as he was releasing

I agree with the author. We’ve already invested in the offense with Kincaid and Cook. Shakir is fine. Yes, we need a #2 but that can be done via FA.
Meanwhile, Tre/Hyde/Poyer aren’t coming back. Who knows what Milano will look like when he eventually comes back. We have FA dilemmas on the defensive line.
I’m always going to default to BPA, and so if that’s clearly a WR in Rd1 then so be it, but most of our needs are on the other side of the ball. This should probably be a rebuilding season anyway.
Most of our needs have always been on the other side of the ball according to some...and we have went defense heavy in the draft and FA ever since McDermott and bean have been here....when do we start to doubt the process and finally go all in on the offense....with an offensive minded hc we would have went all in on offense instead of signing von and could have grabbed an aj brown devante Adam's caliber wr opposite Diggs...idk about you but I'd say focusing on the wrong side of the ball by this regime has cost us more than many like to admit...in all probability it's cost us that elusive lombardi

Ryan O'Halloran: Free-agent, cap situation means Brandon Beane has to get defensive in draft
That doesn't seem to jibe with the general sentiment on this board. Please read the article first, then discuss.
I'd take Xavier legette at pick 28 if I was GM....sure many think that is a reach but 6'3 220 LB wr who ran a 4.29 40 (tyreek hill speed) can high point the ball,catch in traffic and will out run any cb in the league....he is DK Metcalf clone imo

Allen would have won Super Bowls and probably an MVP, but he wouldn't have come close to what Mahomes is done.
Physically, they're pretty much equal. Mentally, Mahomes has a significant edge.
Mahomes and the Bills would have beaten Allen and the Chiefs last week, and he definitely beats the Bengals last year.Our defense forced 1 punt on kc lol....so you think allen on kc wouldn't shred the soft zone zero pressure defense of ours? McDermott’s defense has forced 5 total punts in our last 4 playoff losses....allen would eat up a defense that can't generate pressure.....when have we watched allen sit in clean pockets and not be able to make the other team pay for the lack of pass rush?

Diggs was open earlier though. If Josh had gone to him he’d have gotten the ball off cleanly. I will very rarely complain about a player or coach being aggressive, but Diggs was the right throw for that reason. I like that Allen wants to go for the big throw, but that wasn't the time.
The bleeding the clock argument is valid as it is a legitimate strategy in situations like this. Even if we would’ve had to settle for a FG, it would have been much shorter and there would have been a lot less time on the clock. Or we could’ve won outright with a TD.
Shakir was a for sure TD....Diggs was running a 2 yard crosser.....idk about you but if I was a hc I would tell my qb to take the sure TD over a 2 yard crosser down by 3 in the playoffs with less than 2 minutes remaining

Andy Reid went 20 years without winning a Super Bowl. His playoff record was was 11-13. KC drafted Mahomes, since that time he has two Super Bowl wins and is 13-3 in the playoffs. Why does everybody think it's Andy Reid or the roster? The clear smoking gun is Mahomes, just like it was Brady in New England.
So if Allen is on that level what is holding Buffalo back? I don't believe we can conclude it's the roster. Patriots and Chiefs didn't win all those Super Bowls because the roster. For my dollar Reid and Belichick help. Sean hurts. What happens when you partner a hall of fame QB with a crappy head coach? Divisional losses.
Coaching first and foremost is holding Bills back ...schemes are not on the level of the top teams....and 2nd we haven't really got lucky on the injury front and entered the post season healthy.......

When you say they were a SB winning team, you mean they won one in 1969?
They year before Mahomes started, they lost in the wildcard round. The year before Josh Allen started, we lost in the wildcard round. There was certainly a talent gap between the two rosters, but Allen was not a good QB his first year starting. Mahomes was the MVP. It’s not a debate, it’s a legitimate fact.
I fixed it I mean CALIBER team

Mahomes sat a year and his team didn't trade or cut all their star players and start over on a rebuild his first yr starting.....having a year to sit and learn from a vet like Alex Smith and being molded by the greatest offensive minded coach in Andy Reid was the different between mahomes his first time starting and allen first time starting...you seem to not be taking any of that into consideration and that's the most important details

Revisionist history city rn.
Kc was a superbowl caliber team when mahomes was inserted into the line up and didn't start until his 2nd year....so allen would get a year to sit and then be thrust into a superbowl caliber roster....come on get off mahomes junk...allen is just as good and I'd take allen over mahomes....the rest of this team including coaching have failed allen over and over again and you can't ever say the same with mahomes

Better check his 40...he ran a 4.29..just takes him a bit longer to reach his top speed as he doesn't have the quick burst tyreek has.....he was clocked at 22.3mph in a game last season
