I disagree on ultimate responsibility. If multiple players are that far out of position on a easy to stop 3rd and forever play, that would seem to point as much to the defensive coaching as execution. This isn't the first time we've disagreed on the Bills 3rd and long failures. We just see it differently. You have been a pretty ardent Frazier defender over time it seems. And yes, I realize this does not absolve the failures of subsequent defensive coaches, or ultimately McDermott. Frazier did produce some good results here.

To me it appeared the entire defensive backfield and Edmunds were at or behind the line to gain of the 37 yard line. When the ball was dumped off to Duke Johnson there was literally no one on the screen around him. Should've never happened, but I would believe that alignment to be more on the coaching staff than the players.

It was on Cody Ford. Bad call, but even if it wasn't penalized Hauschka still would've had to kick 55 plus yards to win

The 3rd and 18 conversion Buffalo gave up in OT was emblematic of Leslie Frazier's entire tenure in Buffalo. Just Charmin soft

Great job getting him locked in at those terms. That contract could be a steal

Yeah he really grundled the ball with that post

I'd settle for another Mike Lodish or Gary Baldinger. Leif Larsen would be even better

So true, even in a year like the 2011 draft. Just look at the top 6 picks: Cam Newton, Von Miller, Marcell Dareus, A.J. Green, Patrick Peterson, Julio Jones. One of those is not like the others.

Maybe I misunderstood. Hopefully they will figure out something. Anyways, enough baseball talk for this forum. I really don't think the Hoecht/Ogunjobi situations, while embarrassing, take anything away from the Bills position this offseason. Relative to other contenders, the Bills have at least treaded water if not slightly improved whereas most other top teams have been a net negative so far. They have 10 picks and a great deal of flexibility in the draft. All is not lost. I honestly feel great about where the Bills are right at this moment.

I guess I'm confused what you're upset about then. You said you were unhappy about the Yanks before coming on this board. And Judge is great, but losing Soto and acquiring Bellinger and Goldschmidt is not equivalent. The difference this year COULD have been pitching, but they are screwed without Cole and Gil. Cashman all but admitted as much yesterday.

Take a deep breath man, at least as far as the Bills go. They will be fine. I'm a die hard Yanks fan too, and that situation is waaaaaaay more dire. Their season is effectively over before it even began.

Dane has played solid when called upon. We should and need to do better before the season, but no one should have a problem with this signing

I think Beane is clearly an above average GM. But he also does not deserve the "wizard" and "BBB" monikers that some people bestow on him. He is in the 8-12 range imo

Not sure I'd be looking to Houston for oline help. He must be terrible to have been a backup there

This is going to be a fun thread to revisit in August
