Daboll - Years with Belichick and was at Alabama the year prior.

Bill Musgrave...great. Now I feel much worse. Thanks

I am just saying not knowing much about the guy, but I would not call it a good resume. Usually you try to poach based on some success or working under a coach etc. Why you see the Andy Reid coaching line talk, etc. But hey, he could be amazing for all I know.

Its the hard part with really good but not great results. Much easier to identify that change is needed when the team sucks. My hope is that McD doesn't buy into the we could be doing worse mindset that a lot of people have. With him it can be hard to tell if he has the killer instinct and championship mentality. We have seen he is a good coach but is he willing to do whatever it takes to get to the top is a different story. And I will add the O is not his expertise so this is where he has the least to offer in terms of grooming a OC. You could argue that is why you hire a guy like Daboll that was ready for the job than someone green as Dorsey with not much support. So maybe they need to bring in somebody to help with that.

May be a good coach but not sure Denver is the breeding ground for good WR coaches. They have done nothing in his 5 years there. Jeudy has been a disappointment.

Partially agree. But when do you hear 1 year, 2 years, 3 years, etc before a guy is fired that that people dont like them or they suck? Not very often. Its always they are great, need time, people dont get it, dont see it, blah blah blah. Then woof, they are fired and everyone now says how terrible they were.

He needs to stay on his couch because he is blind. Clearly the offense was off this year. It’s ok to admit that Lee. It starts with accepting there was a problem before it can be fixed.

Obvious answer - Josh Allen. Without him this staff and front office would not have survived. Mahomes goes down and we likely see chiefs still in playoffs with henne. If Allen goes down we are competing for a top 5 pick. Sadly not sure firing them fixes it either unless you have an adequate replacement. The hope is Allen and a little help can get us there.

Feb 28-March 6 - Combine March 7 - Franchise Tag Deadline (Edmunds, Poyer) March 13-15 - Free agency window opens March 15 - New league year, official free agency start, trading period April 21 - RFA deadline (D Jackson, Dodson, Lewis) April 27-29 - Draft

Maybe thinks he needs to prove himself without Reid to get a HC job.

OL and WR. But it is hard to not criticize the O staff. Look what KC and Phi can do with guys like Pacheco, McKinnon, Gainwell. You dont need an all pro RB when you know who to scheme.

Better play design and scheme can also help protect the QB. When the D knows what you are running or plays take 4+ seconds to develop its hard to protect no matter who is blocking.

Draft better and you can afford to let guys walk. The problem has been the drafting and player development. I will also add in smart in season moves. The Chiefs won the game because of guys like - Toney (trade deadline move the Bills could have made, Pacheco (rookie, 7th rounder), Skyy Moore (rookie, 2nd rounder), JuJu (FA sub $4m contract), and 6 rookies playing some significant snaps on defense (McDuffie, Watson, Williams, Karlaftis, Chenal, Cook).

Josh Allen

I tend to not buy the "he would have done zyz if only he had the chance". There is usually a reason and its not like he was sitting behind a ton of guys. We were so light at WR that we signed Brown and Beasley. Its more likely he is not good enough yet and may never be more than a jag. Could have a decent game here or there or could not be dressing for games. Very unlikely he is a #2 on a playoff team.

We would likely have drafted Sam Darnold...

Edmunds will always be at least a above average starting caliber LB. In the right system does reach star status? Maybe, but he at least has a very high floor which will make somebody pay. Free agent LB this year: Deion Jones Lavante David Devin Bush Anthony Walker Jr Rashaan Evans Alex Anzelone Kyle Van Noy Denzel Perryman TJ Edwards Kwon Alexander Dylan Cole Germaine Pratt Kyzier White Lots of replacements and that is just the start of the list.

Free Agents; Bolder are positions a starter needs to be replaced. QB: Keenum - Need to replace with back up. RB: Singletary, Jones - Need starter. Cook can replace or look to upgrade in draft FA. WR: Crowder, Beas, Brown, Kumerow - Need starter and depth. Not on roster, sorry McK, Shakir. TE: Sweeney - Could upgrade TE2/3. OL: Murray, Quessenberry, Saffold, Hart, Ike B, Van Roten - Need starters and depth. Not on roster. A lot of work needed. DL: Phillips, Lawson - Need depth at DE and DT. LB: Edmunds, Dodson, Klein, Mata - Need starter and depth. Not on roster, no Bernard, Spector are not starters. DB: Poyer, Johnson, Marlowe, Jackson, Lewis - Need starter and depth. Not SS starter is not on roster. P: Martin - Need starter. Not on roster.

We are in trouble if we try the same approach at WR. Diggs and Davis, Shakir, McK just wont cut it or we are fighting to just make the playoffs.

Remember last year when many said it is great to be at a point the draft does not really matter? That did not last long.

Chiefs are more like the Bills. We are the Dolphins, Oilers, Chiefs, etc.

My proposal: Only non-drafted players count toward the salary cap. So you can keep all of your drafted or UDFA and it has no cap impact. But free agent spending is capped and leveled out amongst teams. Rewards teams that draft well rather than punish them.

Head Coach Broncos: Sean Payton Texans: DeMico Ryans DC Dolphins: Fangio Browns: Jim Schwartz OC Jets: Nathaniel Hackett Chargers: Kellen Moore Patriots: Bill O'Brien

Benford produced? Played in 9 games, none more than. I would agree he played more than people thought but produced is generous. Shakir had moments. That is a low bar. He may or may not be involved next year. Hopefully the Bills sign a WR in free agency, draft one high and Shakir is still below Diggs, free agent, draft pick, davis and possibly more.

This is a sad reality check of why KC is still better than us.
