Josh Allen essentially is our team. Outside of Allen there is nothing. No run game, no defense, no offense. People forget that Mahomes has an All Pro team around him, as does Brady.

Keep Oliver, Phillips, Zimmer, Epenesa and Johnson and dump the rest. Go after JJ Watt and draft a DE in the 1st or 2nd round.

As good as our line is in pass protection, they are very underwhelming in terms of run blocking. Singletary and Moss are average but honestly I don’t think Derrick Henry would be productive here.

I don’t think he’s an All Pro, I don’t think he’s a liability. If he truly is making $5M, why not keep him?

Feliciano, Williams, McKenzie, Wallace.

You know, I’ve never been the biggest Edmunds guy, but should we single him out when virtually every player on defense has been struggling? At what point should the coaches take accountability? The scheme isn’t working. The mentality behind it sucks. Not aggressive enough, not allowing our players to be violent.

I think our DL sucks. We need a dominant pass rusher, heck, we could use two dominant pass rushers. Edmunds is beaming with potential, some of it we may never see, but his problems are all mental. The scheme we are running absolutely does not help. These guys are stationary targets. I think Edmunds and Milano could be sufficient if they were allowed to attack more. I think allowing these guys to play downhill is a lot more of a powerful mentality to have then telling them to play 5 yards off the ball. Coaching is a major issue.

I’m actually a big fan of Levi Wallace. He’ll give up short gains sometimes but seems to hold up pretty well overall for the most part. Not saying he doesn’t get beat but I think he is a decent starter. Hope we bring him back and add some competition.

Edmunds problem is he’s being forced to react. They sit him in zone coverage 95% of the time. If they would allow him to attack more I think he’d be better. Mainly I think our coaching philosophy is what’s holding us back on defense. Milano and Edmunds simply let the play come to them instead of violently attacking the backfield. This is why RBs are getting 10 yards a pop instead of a 2 yard loss. Until there is a major shift in philosophy, it wouldn’t matter if we had Ray Lewis at LB.

Too old.. been saying this for awhile.

Knox is definitely worth a roster spot.. I don’t think he’ll ever a premier/elite TE though. Bills could use a Kelce/Gronk type of upgrade there.. Think if that happens our offense should be in good shape.. More twin TE sets, which is great for pounding the ball with no drop off in our passing game. I think that would clearly upgrade our running attack as well which would balance out the offense. More play action as well, which Josh thrives at. No more 10:1 passing to running ratio, need balance.

I think a TE would benefit us the most.. Between Diggs and Davis I think we have pretty good talent at WR.. Let McKenzie and Beasley man that slot position.. No idea what the draft board looks like at this time but I also think DE is a massive priority. I’m hoping JJ Watt gets cut and the Bills bring him in on a decent team friendly deal.. I think DE, TE and WR are our greatest priorities going into draft/free agency..

Ultimately, we’re just not there. Allen is, but the rest of the team isn’t.

They don’t have an aggressive mentality. They have a victims mentality. They passively sit back and react instead of attacking the offense. Some of our problem is personnel, most of it is philosophy. I don’t think Frazier is going anywhere but I hope he grows a pair in terms of play calling.

Tony Romo was talking? Didn’t hear em. Must’ve been because of my dad screaming all game.

You’re going to make it man.

Well if the Texans don’t take him we can hope he gets abducted by aliens. Hope.

Ya know, for a “Master Strategist” you’d think that a superb coach like Leslie Frazier could get more out of an overpaid DL such as ours. Butler, Addison, Jefferson, Hughes, Epenesa, Oliver and Murphy etc.. At what point is it about the coaching scheme/philosophy and not the players?

As far as I’m concerned, Lotulelei can go. By him sitting out we’ve lacked a space eater all year. Don’t give me the COVID nonsense. You can get COVID on the football field and you can get it at a restaurant eating out with family. Nonsense..

Problem with our defense is that they’re stationary targets, they sit back and react. I think our defense needs to be more aggressive and attack. Take the fight to them. Outside of that tremendous hit by Poyer our defense played as targets when in all actuality, being aggressive and attacking is a much more powerful mindset for our players to be in. Very soft game plan defensively.

I understand, I was talking long term.

Boettger has been better than Ford.. I can’t deny that, but is he so much better that you could justify paying him 5-6x more than Ford? I think not.. Ford is signed to a very cheap contract and his ceiling is higher.. By all means, draft an interior lineman RDs 1-3 to push him and to keep him as insurance.. preferably a center that can also play guard.. but don’t forget that Ryan Bates also looked good in limited time when he saw the field.. It comes down to Feliciano and Daryl Williams vs Boettger.. And I think Williams should be the #1 priority.. Feliciano #2... Boettger #3..

I’m not so worried about Moss and Singletary.. they’re serviceable.. This offense goes through Allen.. as it should.. I’d rather sure up that OL.. If Buffalo truly wanted to add another RB, I think we could use a Kamara/McCaffery style RB - someone who can catch 60-65+ passes a year..

I agree that this offense rests solely on the shoulders of Josh Allen.. as does Green Bay’s offense with Rodgers and Tom Brady’s offense in New England for so many years.. No problem with that.. When you have a QB of the caliber of Josh Allen, that’s the right way to go.. However, if we have any chance at winning the Super Bowl, which I do think we have a great chance at winning.. This defense needs to play very very well.. They did great against Baltimore but that trend must continue on for us to have a chance at winning a Lombardi.

I don’t think he should.. This will be his first big pay day, pay him what he’s worth.. This isn’t an established 10-15 year vet, let him eat..
