  1. Sorry if this is posted already. Still no love for Josh in this article, but nice write up on Sean. https://www.syracuse.com/buffalo-bills/2020/05/rotoworld-lists-best-nfl-hcs-where-does-buffalo-bills-sean-mcdermott-rank.html 11. Sean McDermott Career Record: 25-23 (.521) With The Bills Since: 2017 Last Year’s Ranking: 16 The Bills have two playoff appearances this century. They have come under Sean McDermott over the past three seasons. Although McDermott is still working on the franchise’s first postseason victory since Bill Clinton was president, he has confirmed himself as one of the top coaching hires of the past half decade. Already one of the league’s best defensive game-planners, McDermott has coordinated top-three units by yards allowed each of the past two years. The Bills’ 259 points against last season were the second fewest in the NFL. McDermott knows defense, period. He’s still working on the rest. A brash front office presence alongside his handpicked GM Brandon Beane, McDermott’s executive aggressiveness has handicapped his offense, where the project is now tied to Josh Allen. Allen’s concerns coming out of the Mountain West were accuracy and decision-making. They had the looks of fatal flaws in 2019, never more so than in the Wild Card Round, where Allen’s stupefying choices down the stretch helped ***** defeat from the jaws of victory. McDermott is the coach of the future in Buffalo. He’s probably still a quarterback away from translating that into annual winning campaigns and playoff appearances.
  2. you gotta pay the troll toll if you want to get in that boys hole.
  3. Pretty cool to see these write ups, fingers crossed we have a season! It's quarterback Josh Allen's time to shine. The Buffalo Bills acquired wideout Stefon Diggs from the Minnesota Vikings. In 2019, he became a big-play pass-catcher, logging 17.9 yards per reception. With Allen's big arm, he and Diggs should connect on several deep balls next season. John Brown, who posted career highs in receptions (72) and yards (1,060) last year, will likely become the No. 2 option. The pair should challenge opposing defenses with speed and crisp routes downfield. After allowing the second-fewest points during the last term, the Bills defense will look even better. Buffalo signed defensive tackle Vernon Butler, edge-rusher Mario Addison, linebacker A.J. Klein and cornerback Josh Norman, who are all familiar with head coach Sean McDermott from their time with the Carolina Panthers. Addison is an upgrade over defensive end Shaq Lawson, who departed for the Miami Dolphins during free agency. The former has registered at least nine sacks in each of the last four seasons. Butler is coming off his best year with 32 tackles, including seven for loss, and six sacks. Norman comes along as an added bonus for a pass defense that allowed the second-fewest touchdowns. If he performs at a level close to how he played in his standout 2015 campaign (18 pass breakups and four interceptions with two returned for scores), the 32-year-old would lock down the starting job opposite of All-Pro cornerback Tre'Davious White. Buffalo added a notable playmaker for the aerial attack. The defensive group will likely remain in the top five in points and yards allowed. The Bills have a prime opportunity to take the AFC East crown. Prediction: 11-5
  4. I had to look it up, not a chance I was remembering that. saw the box score, Stevie had quite the game.
  5. if they have worked for 12 or more hours in the mine it is unlawful because they are so tired.
  6. I live in Oregon and nothing is official, they intend to open in fall but as of now nothing is certain. We are under pretty strict social distancing and Oregon and Washington are doing pretty well "Flattening the curve" so it's definitely possible but nothing is official.
  7. Man, great video. that fake long arm is great stuff, like a pitcher who throws gas and hits you with a nasty changeup.
  8. I was legitimately shocked that he made it to us in the second round. Great for us, two years in a row we have an elite player at a position of need falling to us (Oliver being the first).
  9. I still can't believe everyone missed their blocks on the sweep play vs Houston.
  10. Nope, he is a bit egotistical but he is still QB1 in GB for the foreseeable future. I don't think he will be the mentor type even though he knows exactly how it feels to be the young QB drafted to be the heir to a superbowl winning QB.
  11. Pass the joint bro!
  12. If you're married to someone who went to OSU I imagine you watch your fair share of pac 12. I don't know how much of Moss you got to watch but every time he touched the ball he was productive, I think his balance and instincts more than makeup for his numbers from the combine. I think Moss will be a great compliment to Motor.
  13. This is fun!
  14. Dude is a stud, I watch a ton of pac 12 and this guy is going to be very good.
  15. I will slight myself, I thought Mallet was going to be an upper tier QB, so I have absolutely no idea what I'm talking about.
  16. I hope they don't get Tua. I think he will be exceptional.
  17. I didn't know Bill O'brien was on this message board.
  18. I was pounding the table for Ryan Mallet, we all fall in love with flops.
  19. He's useless! Trade him, Gase!
  20. Interesting take, are you essentially saying the pass rush outweighs good coverage because effective pass rush creates bad throws and sacks thus leading to more turnovers? And what makes you say he is only "good" in zone? I am not asking that in a rude way I just honestly want to hear your take and why he's not great in your opinion.
  21. Completely agree, Was the other one Eddie Hall or Z? You still lifting? I was getting so close to putting up 405 on the bench then....COVID happened. and that's crazy you were on a #1 team, kudos to you!
  22. Points allowed is usually a good indicator for me. I like turnover differential also but that can be skewed pretty easily by your offense. The eye test can also tell you a lot. What about you?
  23. I think I'm in the minority but I think Herbert will be very solid (not great). I think he will be a better version of Dalton, with a stronger arm and more mobile.
  24. What a tease. Jay glazer you minx!
