Sean McDermott: "Culture Trumps Strategy" ?
ghostwriter replied to 26CornerBlitz's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Who's fault is that? He purged our roster of talent, be fair. Can't give him a free pass for having a bare cupboard when he's the guy that threw everything in the trash. Can he lead men? Not every 6'5 300lb player is going to let a 5'8 150lbs coach control their every move. These guys aren't kids anymore, hell a lot of these guys have kids and families and tons of people relying on them. There will be lots of different characters, identities, humors, flaws and personalities and a good coach will see the good in his men and lead them, not trade them away for nothing! -
Best place to get a deli sandwich before the game?

Abbot Pizza in Lackawanna, they do delicious subs too, their pizza is the best I've had. -

That's when it helps to have a coach who can manage personalities well. Being an NFL coach requires a bit of insight into psychology, it's not that X personality is bad, it's about how can I communicate with him in a way that's going to get through to him. You have to wonder about McD's mediation skills when even his own guy (Kelvin Benjamin) does not want to be here. Once again, different personality types are NOT a bad thing if you can manage them, it's actually a really good thing. Coach McD could benefit on a few psychology courses in the offseason, I think he could benefit from it. -
What is or was your expectations for 2018
ghostwriter replied to bills in oregon's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Sure, it'd be great, but Allen year 1? Definitely not expecting it. This team is in it's infancy stages, too early to get a feel for it's personality. We will know a lot more about this team next year. -

I don't care about W or L, I'm more concerned with Allen and his growth, that ultimately determines whether or not Beane and McD have a future here. Having a star QB fixes everything. -
Trade down for as many picks as possible. Combine that with 70 million cap space, we can change this thing around.

Can she play center?

Hopefully it wasn't too serious and she can walk away from this. Hope the guy is OK.

And a defensive coordinator that needs superstars at every position to be average.

Trent Dilfer: "I don't think Josh Allen should be playing"
ghostwriter replied to VW82's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I think an All Pro center is the quickest thing that can turn this offense around. We need a mean SOB anchoring that line, losing Eric Wood killed us. Unless AJ Green or Julio Jones is available, I want the meanest center or LG we can find with that 1st pick. -

ghostwriter replied to VW82's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I think he could play on a better team with better support. Many of the good ones played extremely dumbed down offenses their rookie years, but they all had vets to lean on while Allen has Andre Holmes and Ryan Groy. -

Allen, Edmunds, Star, Phillips, Kyle Williams, Dion Dawkins, Hyde, Poyer, Milano, Tre White. -

Truth, brother. But to me, McDermott got us to the playoffs year 1, he's earned my patience and respect for that. I'm not happy about the bare cupboard on offense, but once again, we'll see what happens. If Allen regresses, no matter what the reason is, fire all of them. You need a QB in this league to have sustainable success, that's my bottom line. -

ghostwriter replied to 26CornerBlitz's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I question some of the moves too, but as a fan, I think they deserve a fairshake. This year does not count, you got a rookie QB, he needs to grow. I need to see how they develop Allen in year 2. If Allen regresses, Beane and McD should be gone. This year absolutely 100% does not matter to me though, I'm not expecting anything, but if they do finish strong, I mean who wouldn't want that? -

The guy is a load, really scary dude IMO. Few plays I noticed him explode into the backfield, he didn't get the sack or tackle but it opened up other guys to make a play. Snacks was a damn good football player, better at run D than Star but not as explosive. I think Star can pass rush better than Snacks ever could, won't be a 10 sack guy but I think he has some ability there. -

You're absolutely free to your opinion, we'll just have to politely, civilly and respectfully disagree. Lotulelei has been excellent for Kyle Williams and Tre Edmunds. This guy is worth it IMO. He will be a veteran leader in that locker room when Kyle is gone and an excellent player next to Harrison Phillips. Once Kyle is gone we won't have much money at all tied up at DT and unlike Kelvin Benjamin, Star has bought into the process. -

It's a rebuild, either way there'd be a hole, it's just a matter of where, I guess. McDermott is supposed to be a defensive guru, shouldn't need All-Pros at every position to field a good defense. -

We need a veteran WR, we need to draft one too though. I'd back up the Brinks truck on a reliable classy #1. An 8m/yr wideout may cost us 11.5 and I hope Beane understands. We will absolutely have to overspend, but we have to. Don't play moneyball, they'll sign somewhere else. -

ghostwriter replied to 26CornerBlitz's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I think Lotulelei's contract is fair, I may be in the minority there but 10m per year for high end run stuffer is palatable. Were there better options? Perhaps, but I saw Damon Harrison get a similar contract so I know what Star got is not as over the top as fans make it out to be. Should have overpaid John Brown to come here with Murphy's money. -

I do like Lotulelei, not a big fan of Murphy though, would have liked to get a WR with that money. -

They've completely neglected offense. I reaaaaaally thought we had a nice draft, but if you wanted to draft defense should have splurged big money on offense in FA. -

Ive had a WONDERFUL day today, but good grief, I have to be negative here for a second unfortunately. You trade a THIRD for Kelvin Benjamin YOUR GUY and even he doesn't buy in! Your own dude, c'mon man, that's alarming. What culture change? Seriously? Zay Jones had to tell him where to LINE UP. Culture change? hahahahahahaha -

Someone needs to be fired over Mahomes right now.
ghostwriter replied to Klaista2k's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I can't stop watching, I love the Bills, I only get so animated because I care about the team and the wonderful city of Buffalo so much. The Bills are my family, you don't give up on family. You may disagree with them and hate what they're doing, but your stuck with them for life. -

ghostwriter replied to Klaista2k's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Your optimistic in the rebuild, I'm not. I went over why I'm not optimistic repeatedly already, you disagree and that's fine. To be frank, I don't trust the process. Can I blame McD for the last 20 years? No. It's a collection of people, he is part of it though. Ralph being the biggest part of it, Terry the lesser part. I'm just frustrated man.
