It's almost like he completely forgot about the AFC East and then just stuck all 4 teams in there together, as a group—but not at the bottom because that would make it too obvious that he forgot.

I took a crack at how the actual TE list should look, and unfortunately, I think this is very accurate.

Contract Extension is an odd way of spelling "hot seat."

This bozo clearly doesn’t know that we do things differently in the AFC East. In the AFC East, when a team is the division champ, they reign for at least 10 years. Those are the rules.
Which bozo, the one in the link or the OP?
In the words of Sean McDermott: "yeah, I appreciate your question but I'm not going to get into that."-

I wish the seat was warm for two years. I don't believe that's reality.
McD seat was ice cold for two years and is only getting slightly warm now.
That seat won't get hot for another 2 or 3 years after more likely playoff failures.
let me guess… you’re not a McD guy?-

The more I think about this whole situation, the more I've landed at the conclusion that the answer "very concerned" is vague enough for people to hear exactly what they wanted to hear. It's like when you're writing a novel or a song, and you include just enough detail to set the scene but then let the reader/listener fill in all the details with event from their own lives.
Anyone who thinks — even subconsciously — that the Diggs that wanted out of Minnesota is who he will always be saw this as the "aha!" moment. It was a chance to fill in the details of what "very concerned" means with personal bias i.e., "I knew it was only a matter of time before Diggs would want out."
But here's the thing — if McDermott had said, "no, I'm not concerned and I'm not going into detail," would that have really convinced anyone that there wasn't an issue? The conversation would still have been, "what's McDermott covering up?"
Also, of course McDermott is concerned. His ass has been on the Two Bills Drive warm seat for two years now!-

Haven't you heard? Allen doing lunges is what started this whole thing.
The next — and very crucial — stage of Josh Allen's development will be learning that there is a right time and place for unleashing his thighs and there is a wrong time and place for unleashing his thighs.-

I thought it was going to be third of Mahomes’ 14 Super Bowls?
It’s going to be the first ever three-team Super Bowl. They’re not even inviting the NFC. Well, except the Lions, they might invite the Lions. Oh, they might invite the Giants too because Daboll the best head coach ever. What about Jalen Hurts? I’m glad you asked. The Eagles are going, too. It’s going to be the first ever 29-team Super Bowl. A battle royal. Everyone is invited except the Bills… and the Pats (finally)… and the Raiders. The Raiders can’t go. I’m a little drunk. -
Guys, the Jets and Dolphins have both already won the Super Bowl this year. There's no point in even playing the season.

I mean, every single game is a "1-score" game for at least the first two drives. Most games have a point differential of 8 points or less until late in the game.

Per PFT and the Athletic, Rodgers injury occurred in pre-practice conditioning drill and he sat out rest of session.
I read this as "and he sat out rest of season."-

How much did you contribute to that $15,000 in hot dog sales?
I bought two of them at Yankee stadium a few summers ago that I'm still paying off.
I have paid off my student loan debt faster than my hot dog debt. I mean, I don't know why we're not talking about hot dog debt cancelation in this country. It's out of control.-

It is interesting for sure.
I just think with today's resources, we are going to see so many new stats.
I saw a stat not too long ago for QB's who got to 35 wins the fastest. Why 35? That's just a random arbitrary number isn't it?
Hey, at least it's not baseball where we're tracking things like batting average vs. right handed pitchers during day games in the month of July on grass fields when stadium capacity is above 50% and cloud coverage is below 50% and total hot dog sales have grossed $15,000... -

History also strongly indicated that Andy Reid would never win a Super Bowl because he didn't do it in his first 20 years. Has any NFL coach been a HC for 20 years and then won it? If there is, I don't know about it.
History also strongly indicated that a team hosting a Super Bowl will never win a Super Bowl....then it happened two years in a row with the Bucs and Rams.
You can manipulate numbers to fit pretty much anything.
Oh, for sure. I'm not saying it can't be done, or that just because it's never happened before that it never will. I think it's an interesting philosophical question based on over 50 years of data. I think that when you have a coach and QB pairing that is building but hasn't gotten over the hump for 5 seasons, there becomes a very real mental hurdle to clear in additional to all the physical hurdles a team has to clear over the course of a season.Andy Reid is an interesting case study.
Andy Reid and McNabb made a Super Bowl together in their 6th season together, losing to the Patriots. They never came close again after that.
In Kansas City, Reid and Alex Smith were close for 5 years but couldn't get over the hump together. After those 5 seasons, the Mahomes/Reid era began, which was finally enough to get Reid his first ring.Again, I'm not saying there's a science to it. I just find that 5 year number to be fascinating.

Listen guys, I like McDermott — a lot. I'm about as big of a McDermott apologist as there is.
That being said, history suggests that McDermott and Allen will not win a Super Bowl together. Hell, history suggests that McDermott and Allen will not even get to a Super Bowl together...
Allen and McDermott are going into year 6 as Head Coach and starting QB. No starting QB and Head Coach pairing have ever won their first Super Bowl after being together for 5 seasons. It's crazy, but true. History strongly indicates that 5 seasons is the maximum number of years a starting QB and Head Coach should be given to win a Super Bowl together.
I hate to say this, but I do think that if the Bills don't win the Super Bowl this year, replacing McDermott would be justified.-

Yeah I remember looking up that stat last September. I’m cool with September on Thursday, Sunday or Monday night. It’s not like this isn’t a big time matchup that the world wouldn’t want to see. Even a 4pm game would. The September 1pm games in Miami are the only games I have a real problem with
Yeah, the whole make the Bills play in the heat in September and the Dolphins play in the snow in December is way overblown. Both regular season games were decided by 5 points. I'd like to see Bills vs. Dolphins on Monday Night Football like the classic Kelly/Marino games.-

I’ll scream if they have us scheduled for Miami in September.
That’s a given
I thought the same thing — Miami in September is a given.
But interestingly, playing at Miami in September is a new trend for NFL schedule makers. In the 30-year span between 1990 and 2019, the Bills only played at Miami in September a total of six times: 1990, 1998, 2003, 2006, 2014, and 2015. However, the Bills have now played at Miami in September for 3 straight seasons: 2020, 2021, and 2022.
I'm hoping they buck the trend this year, but my guess is that given how the rivalry was ratcheted up last year, the Bills will once again be at Miami in September.-

I am of the belief that the late 80s/early 90s were the peak of NFL uniforms. I feel very strongly that every team's best uniform existed in this era...
- The Bills' red helmets and royal blue jerseys
- Denver's blue helmet and orange jerseys
- The Seahawks' silver and royal blue
- The Eagles' kelly green and silver
- Tampa's creamsicles
- New England's white and red
- San Diego's navy blue on navy blue (yeah, I actually like these better than white helmet and powder blues)
- The Giants' navy blue helmet and royal blue jerseys
- The Rams' royal blue and yellow
- Houston's white and light blue
- The Jaguars and their uniform abominations not yet existing
Then again, this is the era of football I grew up with, which is probably why I'm partial toward these uniforms.
