    From a playing time standpoint, my belief is that McDermott has a philosophy of milking the vets as long as he can, in order to give the younger guys more time to develop their fundamentals and earn the playing time.  Examples in my mind have included Peterman over Josh, Gore over Singletary, Sanders over Gabe, the Bates situation, etc.  Only when things like injury or the stakes force his hand, does he put his best hand on the table.  Could be wrong, although that’s my best guess.

    It is confusing isn’t it,

  2. The odd thing about Bates analysis by the Bills coaches is that he played as well or better than who he replaced on the O line, yet he was benched when those guys were able to play again, happened repeatedly, we could certainly stand to re-sign him, I don’t understand their reluctance, oh well,

    Tua will improve as he begins to read defense better. He’s going to be a qb that beats you with timing, accuracy, and decision making. There is a lot of room to grow for Tua.


    We’ll just have to wait and see. If he learns to get the ball out on time and to the right WR he can be very good. Arm strength is a small part of playing QB.

    Fitz would not agree with you on the arm strength argument 😁👍

  4. Tua is 2nd rate QB until he proves otherwise. He is physically weak, lacking in Arm strength, and throwing velocity, he is undersized  and injury prone, he may not have fully recovered from his hip injury from, iirc, his college years, hell, Epenesa took him out of a game sacking him,  he is not in the top fifty percent of starting QBs in the league, everyone knows these things about Tua.  
     

       As well, everyone knows that the Buffalo Bills won’t take an fellow AFCE team lightly, being that winning the division is the number one requirement to get to the post season, these made up things to worry about angst threads are just that.  


    End rant.

     

    It’s eleven thirty, I’m tired, and I’m going to bed, ya I’m old, get off my lawn!

    It amazes me that the Bills can potentially pay one player like Allen $250M, Mahomes may get $500M, but the entire NFL can only provide a $200M "loan" for a team in their league to build a stadium that they will suck billions from for the next 40+ years. Just crazy!

    It’s corporate SOP, never use your own money, tax payers have been being duped into providing private corporations infrastructure for many decades, via tax breaks, aka corporate welfare, public funding Via taxes on our income, we pay to build it and then pay to use it, and the corporation gets the vast majority of financial benefit. Yet we just keep doing this over and over and over and over…, it mostly because we re-elect the same shysters from both political parties, over and over and over and over, will no-one ever learn? I’m gonna go get another cup of coffee ️,

    If the team is not willing to get a legit CB2 and are relying on a unknown draft pick. Why did we sign Von Miller again?  
     

    it should be Lombardi or Bust THIS year. 

    One would think so, 

     

    We all know Beane doesn’t sleep, so I for one am not worried about this, Beane and his guys will work this out .

    I feel like we talk about this every year. And yet again Tom Brady is taking a meager $25 mil. 

    Because as much as Tom Brady is a walking character flaw,  he knows damn well that a good QB with poor weapons will not succeed to the level of championships. Everyone one knows this, the surrounding cast hasn’t to be really good to win it all. I need a cup of coffee ️ 

  8. The NFL talking heads, at that time totally dismissed the Bills as being a relevant team in the league, so none of them paid any actual attention to the team during those two years  and mostly talked out their combined azses, which is SOP for them.
     

       Anyone who watched the games (which the vast majority of talking heads didn’t do) saw the potential and growth of Allen’s skill set over those two years.
     

       The talk show hosts just repeat each other’s talking points and occasional watched highlights, then they just blah blah blah…, by and large they say and talk about what they are told to say and talk about, the sports journalism part is mostly nonexistent.

    Green Bay have done horrible things in the draft.

     

    The Chiefs and mahomes made out like bandits and can draft another WR or pick one up from another team.

     

    I don't really care what Jerry Jones has to say... he is the one running the team that sucks.

    Yup, nail on the head, the C boys have been a running joke for a while, three years ago I was on a bus In Annapolis MD, and the driver was busting a guys balls for his unwarranted hope that Dallas was gonna win it all, it was funny as hell to Listen to, and ya know the driver was spot on, nothing had changed since then, 😁👍

    Just curious - what kind of return would we get for trading Stefon Diggs?  Not that I'm a proponent of that, but given the Hill news today it got me thinking about it.  Trade Diggs and, assuming a 1st round pick is part of the deal, draft his replacement, use the other 1st round pick on a CB, another receiver or Breece Hall.  Would set the Bills up for a good 4-5 year run with young cheap playmakers for Allen.  And frees up money to refresh other areas of the team.

    In theory a nice concept, but…, ya gotta be damn sure you’ve got all your ducks in a row before you squeeze that trigger, also consider the number of first round picks that don’t pan out they way teams thought they might,   TH might just sit on his rep now that he’s been paid, wouldn’t be the first time a player relaxed his output under such circumstances. Just sayin,
