Two of those 3 guys will be in the top 32 in receiving yards next year? Is that your prediction?

I think the point he is making is that even though they were bad, they still had two productive pass catchers, which the Bills may not have this year.

The 2023 Chiefs weapons sucked last year. The 2024 Bills weapons are looking to surpass that level of suck.

If he quit on the team, I don’t care if he posts 2k yards with the Texans. It was completely right to ditch his ass.

Um, yes? Cole Beasley was like the second or third biggest FA WR signed that year.

MVP is a regular season award. Playoffs are irrelevant.

Josh Allen doesn’t come in second in total TO’s last year and I think he wins MVP going away tbh. Correct. By this logic, Phillip Rivers is also 3 to 4 plays away from being a multiple SB champion.

Jalen Hurts dropped the ball lol, They still allowed 35. In Josh Allen land, that’s “he can’t win a game like that.”

Imagine if Pat Mahomes’ defense allowed 35 in the SB.

I have seen the “underdeveloped at winning at the LOS” criticism levied at Josh before. Like his presnap stuff is not up to snuff. Where does this come from? What is it that folks see or or notice?

The OL, particularly IOL was really bad in 21 and 22. Josh covers up a lot because he’s Josh. And we saw how it affected him because he was bailing out of the pocket in a second vs the Jets in the opener in 23 when he had plenty of time.

A tour du wrong

I’m not talking about being a contributor. I’m talking about being a star.

I'm talking like the 1 in a thousand rookie who just dominates from week 1 and blows away all expectations. JJ was a guy who was projected to be a slot and have difficulty with separation and basically rendered all that projection moot. That's the only way for the Bills WR room to be good. For Coleman to be a historic rookie.

Jail this man! Delete this post before the IRS finds it.

The only chance that the Bills have a top 5 passing attack next season is if Coleman is an out of the box surprise star, imo. The chances of that are low, but not zero.

I think Deebo has less value among the league because of his unique skill set. There are probably a lot of coaches that don’t know how to use him.

Week 7/8 missing Williams and Deebo in 2023. So that’s not really fair (although it makes Deebo look worth a Hall of Fame LT AND a good WR). Regardless, Deebo has major injury concerns at this point, has a high contract, and will be 29 this season. Even if he’s that important, will he be in 2 years?

I’m surprised cut/trade Deebo and pay Aiyuk isn’t gaining traction in SF.

They traded the #1 pick last year. That’s how they got it this year. It wasn’t a “gift.” Eventually, you have to use your picks to find a good QB, something the Bears haven’t had in a decade plus. Caleb was the best QB prospect in the last two seasons. It’s much easier to argue that they did everything right, even if Caleb isn’t the answer.

I never want to hear this dudes name again. Public enemy #1

I want more talent. Mahomes can prop up bad defenses in the playoffs. He won two SB’s doing so. we need to help Allen do it with more offensive talent.

He needs help, obviously. Or else he would’ve won a lot more playoff games despite poor defensive performances like his contemporary has. This is probably Beane’s thought process. “Allen is on Mahomes’ level, so we don’t need to overinvest on offensive talent.” He’s wrong. And he will be wrong again. We haven’t been good enough to win a shootout in the playoffs in Allen’s entire tenure.

Oh yes, in Mara’s view, Schoen probably screwed it up. But that’s why owners can be silly. Tying up $20M+ on a backup QB and RB is silly, they used that money on Burns instead.

The argument is that we need better offensive weapons to close the gap between Allen and Mahomes so if and when the defense collapses, we can still win with offense like Mahomes does all the time. I have zero expectation for Allen + Coleman and MVS and Samuel to win a playoff game if the defense allows 35+. Get Allen some more weapons and I think he can elevate to Mahomes’ level and start winning more playoff games.
