If the Buffalo fans agree to continue to supply ‘adult appliances’ to the New England QB, maybe that will be a selling point. ?
Interesting thought... though I do think it would be better if Tawmy was the continued recipient of said adult appliances regardless of his next destination. In fact wouldn’t it be grand if opposing teams fans from around the league participated in supplying said appliances during every game he plays, that would be super don’t you think?

It Would have to be someone who is open to participating in a scheme to side step the rules of good sportsmanship, so that may or may not limit who would want to go their voluntarily as a FA.

People went nuts because it was a MAJOR weakness in his game that was hurting his overall ability to play the position at a high level. Also a reason why he'll be riding the pine everywhere except for us where that buffoon Rex Ryan thought he was smarter than everyone else.
Allen's issue isn't at the level that it prevents him from playing at a high level, but it's an area of weakness that would result in his overall game becoming stronger should he improve at it.
With Allen I expect and believe in him improving every year. All signs/indications point towards that, so to me I'm really not concerned.
There have been many very good points made in this thread, and thanks to you guys for your posts, one could learn a thing or two reading them. Imo, cleaning up the dropped passes (not expecting perfect) will go a long way to improving pass completions percentage, YPA, and TD pass percentage, this one thing would make a large difference in outcomes. Yes easier said than done, but it is a major key to success. If nothing else changed and the drops were cleaned up we would score more points and win more games, this of course is linked to many other “small things” being done better, but I think you all get my drift on this. Our guys gotta catch the ball first, ?
Go Bills!!!

I'm sorry, but Brady has more than earned a top tier $$$$$ Contract. 6 Superbowls says so! ?
Brady really has no leverage when it comes right down to it, he is not a big commodity anymore, and he is not worth big money, He is a memory more than anything. The longer Brady stretches this out the less he endears himself to the organization. Once you cross the line with a corporation...
We shall see when FA starts up, and teams want to see him throw a football... ?-

Huge fan of Diggs coming to Buffalo
and while we are doing majic tricks (BeaneMeister ) Get Us Judon too.
Is there a WR that even upgrades our middle of the pack in FA? For middle of the pack cash ?I am looking to the Draft to upgrade that group. get two after the 1st. But real ones. One who can start is especially important.
How do you know when you have your # 1 WR on McDermotts Team ?
He doesn't play ST. hahaI never suspected someone likable as yourself, would detour into the foul , dank , darkest darknesses.
#concernedThat was awesome ? ?? ?

Then why didn't McD make that statement last year? A year when they had every intention of being aggressive in UFA? A year when expectations were going to be high?
I get that most fans aren't capable of putting themselves in McD's position and their proclivity is to laud anything the team does. My belief is McD said this because he's entering the fourth off-season as HC and this year is critical to his rebuild. He also knows the schedule promises to harder than the 3rd easiest in the NFL. He recognizes a need for more talent and they've got money to spend even if they re-sign Tre, Dawkins, and Milano. He also knows that many of his contemporaries are or close to getting to the SB.
McD ain't a surface-level thinker like a lot of fans are.
Wow, surface level thinkers, you are a piece of work aren’t you. Anyone and I mean anyone who has worked in sales or management for even a short period of time has a full understanding of marketing concepts, and that they work best when the person delivering the message is sincere and truly likes what they do and wants their co- workers to buy in and be happy with their time in an organization. It is not advanced level thinking nor is it complicated, it is SOP in every well run organization from bicycle shops to Goldman Sachs.
Now go and get yourself s nap and come back when your head is on right.
Go Bills!!!

Michael Thomas is way out of line here.
Not so much out of line imo, more of a poorly thought out statement, just a narrow view of the world he lives in, its not an uncommon at all, people in all walks of life are prone to this sort of thing.
Worst case scenario, we will have to find a new hobby for a season if there is a walkout. Probably do us all a lot of good to step away for a bit... ? oh the horror... ?

Look, we all know that Allen needs to “clean up his game” that’s a given, and I think he will do that, (not expecting perfect). He has this up coming, and next season to cement his status on this team imo.
It is my contention that if just the catchable dropped passes are cleaned up by our pass catchers, (not expecting perfect) then the completion percentage, yards per attempt, and TD averages all go up to a point of respectability, and we win more games. This one thing, simple in concept, but harder in reality to fix, but it needs to be done, so WE fans can celebrate more often!! ???

Good listen, as said above, it is nice to see that the interviewer actually did some background work, and knew about the team, it’s nice to not get the canned questions with every interview. Thanks for posting them.

Doing worse or the same as this past season would of course be disappointing, and I fully expect an improved team that can score three TDs per game, and sometimes more, and frankly if we can’t do that we haven’t improved at positions that we have to improve at, and some rethinking in in order, none the less I will still be a Bills fan and see humor in my generally over blown expectations ?
Go Bills!!!

There’s no debate here. You’re a miserable fan who won’t acknowledge progress until a Lombardi is hoisted, which is ludicrous. I’m one of the most tolerant people you’ll never meet (that’s not a typo).
I’d wish you a nice day but I know you’re incapable of having one because somebody hasn’t lived up to your standards.

Unhappy people that expect perfect from everyone else and are mystified and upset by their constant state of disappointment.oh the human race...?
Or, man shakes fist at cloud... ? ☁️

Imo, having a mix of receiver types is best, it gives the offense more versatility when game planning opponents, and opponents have more to be concerned with when playing you.

The Bills and Buffalo have a long way to reviving their name sadly. Just last Probowl Buffalo was voted the worst place to visit by the players.
Yup, but a few more years of winning will help that considerably, seventeen years of stupid is hard to shake off, but the Bills current organization is in the right path to change the perception. Losing makes you a loser, winning makes you a winner, regardless of location.
Go Bills!!!

Another Josh "The Victim" Allen: no weapons, no help, just him on an island against Godzilla.
So, I think you really should open up and express your true feelings about Josh Allen, the coaches, and the team as a whole, your continued beating around the bush, leaves so much obviously unsaid. Don’t hold back, tell us what you really think... ??

Lol. I’m with you on the phony jersey teams.
You’re correct and I wasn’t clear. Make no mistake, I understand the draw and allure of NYC. It’s a cool place to visit. Always something to do. Personally, I’d never want to live there (or anywhere near there), but I know that people do.
My contention is that the Jets are a disaster and have been for some time now, so is the proximity to NYC enough to outweigh that? If I’m a ball player, I say no. With as much time as this sport requires, it’s a long miserable season if you aren’t winning. I want to go somewhere I have a chance to win. I don’t correlate winning with the jets (Bills are still fighting that stigma too). As a fan, I realize these players have outside interests, but selfishly I want my guys eating, drinking, sleeping ball all the time.
I here you, on all counts, I don’t think that the jets have what it takes to shed their rep, the Bills on the other hand are making some head way on reviving their name.
Go Bills!!!

I’ve always wondered how fast they are with their pads on compared to tights. I mean do some players carry their pads on their body better than others, thus they are faster or slower than their peers when in tights?

Still don’t understand why anyone would want to play for Gase or the Jets dumpster fire of an organization. Is the NYC proximity really that big of a deal?
While you are absolutely correct about the jets, Gase, and the dumpster fire,...
The Big Apple is really an amazing place to live in or visit, quite literally any type of food, fashion, bars, clubs, entertainment or any other thing you might want is likely to be found there, people from all over the world are there, and bring all the interesting things from their home lands, the best pizza I’ve ever eaten the best dim sum, the best Italian food outside of Italy, etc etc. it is hands down one of the most dynamic places on our planet. so yes The proximity to NYC is a big deal. Oh, but there is one draw back, actually two, the New Jersey jets and giants, they masquerade as New York teams... ??-

I don't think people are "afraid" of those winters. I think many people simply don't like those gray, cold miserable days.
Heck, if I call up any of my friends or family in upstate around this time of year, they are ALL miserable and bitching about the weather. It happens every year, so I stay incommunicado until later in spring.
I lived 21 years in upstate NY and set sail long ago, not because I was afraid of winter, but because there were other climates that suited me far better.
I understand all of that, it’s was sarcasm, it was never aimed at western New Yorkers, just the talking heads that over blow the whole topic of there being cold air where it snows, get it?
3 hours ago, Augie said:Well, technically everybody has weather, and in August, September and even October the WNY weather is FAR better than anywhere in Florida or elsewhere in the south. I had $500 into two seats in Jacksonville with the Bills in town and found we were the only ones in our row due to the heat. Eventually gave up and went into the club concession area to watch a little TV with some shade and AC. I’ve turned down FREE tickets in Tampa. It is BRUTAL, and I’m a guy who would play tennis midday in August in Florida. Sitting there roasting is NOT a joy in life.
Yeah, we get cold later in the season, but on balance I’d rather play in WNY than Florida if weather is the factor. (Taxes are a different matter! ?) Plus, how different are we from Pittsburgh, Cleveland, New England, etc?
I’ll be happy when that bad rap from late show jokes just fades away. The people who bash Buffalo rarely know much about Buffalo, and I’ll bet most have never even visited.
Yup, I was making fun of the talking heads, not western New Yorkers...

It would be nice to root for a Bills team where scoring 3 tds in a game isn’t a minor miracle. We have had some brutal offenses these past 20 years.
So very true, but a guy can hope better, ?

The offense really must score three TDs per game on average, if that is accomplished we will be fine, (I would hope that we would throw in a FG or two on top of that every so often). With JA upping his game as he needs to, and a whole lot less dropped passes we can get were we need to go.
Go Bills!!!

Jordan Palmer on Josh Allen

All very true, it is always getting the little thing right that makes the difference. I see the team being on the cusp of potentially becoming dominant. This off seasons acquisitions and preparation are the lynchpins as it were. For me the season starts with free agency and the draft, my anxiety levels are still in check, but... This upcoming season will be exciting to watch unfold. ?
Go Bills!!!
