Wonder what he's up to these days. Kinda shocked they haven't revisited him being here as McDermott and Beane had a lot of glowing things to say about him.

Yeah, I really think there is no "wrong way" to look at it. I think it's based now on if you see a path to the division still for the Bills. I see the path, but I don't have confidence the Bills will be able to take it. I'm out on our division title opportunity and focused on Wild Card. As such I just don't want a Cincinnati team that still feels like they can make the playoffs. They already lost 3 in a row and could easily drop the next two to New England and Baltimore before facing us. I would love that for them.

Well, he is a beefy fellow and I don't think he would have done any worse then Brown did at RT. I say, give him a jersey. Ok, but hear me out. Tooth Fairy covers A LOT of ground quickly every night. One would think she could be a good deep threat. Slide her into the role that made for Mecole Hardman and I think we may have something.

Honestly, if you really feel the division is out of reach (I do at this point) I'm pushing for the Pats over the Bengals. Keep them pushed down and out of the hunt. Likewise, I'm pushing for the Cards over the Jags to keep the Jags down lower.

Brown was getting slapped around before he got hurt. Dion Dawkins just doesn't seem to care about anything except donuts and his "Schnow Brand".

I said it in another thread and I'll repeat it. Bringing Daboll back would be like going back to your ex...only to be reminded quickly why they are your ex. They guy was just as frustrating as Brady. The same tendency to call those cute plays at the wrong time. He would frequently abandon the run. No thank you. Let's get someone with a fresh outlook.

That's why I don't buy the whole "they coached it out of him" Guy has taken a beating most years. He knows how he plays. I think a large part of him staying in the pocket is him trying to save mileage on his body. He knows how he feels. Now he just needs guys that can get open for him so he doesn't have to hang onto the ball so long. Or an OC that can call quick hitters that aren't bubble screens.

As proof to your comment, his self written autobiography is titled "They Called Me Dirty" And it was a very good read.

The lost of dirty player starts and ends with our very own Conrad Dobler. Anyone else is just an amateur in comparison.

He a natural. Maybe it's him and not Josh that will demand a trade to the Rams for more movie roles

He called a time out, didn't he?

I don't see the sailboat

The Browns and Chiefs have already scheduled Top-30 visits with the assailants.

Absence makes the heart grow fonder. I can't believe how many people forget how frustrating he was here. Would frequently abandon the run. Wayyyyyy to many "cute" play calls. This would be like someone going back to their ex because they are going through a dry spell....only to remember EXACTLY why she's your ex to begin with

That was a big risk. I also think they severely overestimated what Joshua Palmer would bring to the offense. To their credit they look to be right on Kincaid improving when healthy because he's looked awesome when remotely healthy. The caveat there of course being he hasn't stayed healthy. The only pass play where I felt like we got em was the 4th and 27 hook and ladder. That was really some stuff our defense would give up on that spot. Also, it's hard to call designed runs for Allen when Houston did what they did. They kept amazing gap integrity. They didn't rush Allen as much as walk the pocket back into his lap. And they knew they had time because our guys couldn't get open. I know people are going to knee jerk react to what I'm about to say here. You're spot on. He's not the same with his mobility as he used to be. I know people want to point at Brady and McDermott, but Allen himself is most to blame here. It's his body and he knows how he feels. When he does run, he never has had what I would call a light running style. Even going back to Wyoming....hits have started adding up. It likely takes him a lot longer to heal than it used to. I think physically, we are closer to the end of his mobility than most of us realize. Several times this year Allen has set personal records for most time from snap to throw. Houston is an extreme case...by he's having to hold the ball longer because...wait for it....no one can get open. And Brady makes the issue worse by calling long developing mesh concepts. Now, mesh is great because it is what we wanted...see the scheme get people open. But they didn't have the time for that Thursday.

He was running for his life. Literally. He didn't have time to set his feet and throw before the pressure was in on him.

Ah that's right. The robbers are their super fans. My bad all. That's...that one's on me.

Robbery seems more like a Chiefs prerequisite.

Classy move from a vet player if done on purpose.

Approximate Dead Cap hits if traded: Dawkins: $27M Oliver: $21.5M Shakir: $14.7M Around $63M in dead cap to trade these three you mentioned. Not to mention we are scheduled to have dead cap hits next year for: Milano: $11M Bosa: $7M Plus a few others. Oh, and we only have like 45 players under contract for next year as it is. We are looking north of $22M in dead cap next year to comply with void years. So in your plan we take on around $85M in dead cap, and have to fill about 10-12 spots on the roster with league minimum guys. Plus have money for draft picks, a practice squad and replenish the roster in season due to injury. How are you fielding a team?

If I was in charge I would remove Mr. Brightside from the stadium playlist. I would replace it with Jelly Roll's "I am Not Ok".

If Tony Danza isn't in it I'm out.

Knox will not be here under his current cap hit. He will either likely have to take a pay cut or be gone. Samuel likely won't be here either. Yes, next off season should be defense heavy. If you have seen them play you know why. Luckily, on offense, we really just need to restock the WR room. Beane is going to have to find a trade because the FA WR class is terrible.

I've long said if they want to play Thursday games they should schedule teams that are coming off a bye week.

Honestly, I like many used to let the outcome of the Bills game play way too far into my mental well being. Weeks they lost I was a complete ass. The drought was a fun time to be around me. My "Come to Jesus" with sports came after 13 seconds. Man, I literally didn't sleep for three days. Got in a real bad mental headspace. Then slowly I would start to see things. Mainly, the players that actually played in that game in Instagram photos, out to dinner all smiles. Heading on nice tropical vacations. Not bothered at all. That helped me refocus from gameday being all about that dub, to being all about time with my wife, kids, other family and friends that are around. The game is on and I'm still invested...but it's just different now. Once the game ends, my emotional tie to that game ends. I was over last night's loss before the players even exchanged jerseys, did the joint prayer and shook hands. That's actually somewhat poetic considering the overall history of this franchise.
