Breaking: Von Miller to bills, 6 year , 120 million
Cray51 replied to BillsMafi$'s topic in The Stadium Wall
I’m way to excited to have Von Miller and Ed Oliver attacking the QB next year while we have proper DTs setting the line -
Can block and catch, was stuck behind Cameron Brate and Gronk. Needed a change of scenery, love his size and athleticism

Speculative article on friction between McDermott and Staff?
Cray51 replied to BillsMafi$'s topic in The Stadium Wall
Because he has added his personal feelings into an article that could mean something if it was substantive. he takes one quote, adds his own thoughts into it, writes like he was personally wronged by McDermott, and calls it a day. if he did real reporting, and took the single individuals quote and used it to ask more questions and dive deeper in, I could at least respect his effort. this feels like a one of those Instagram accounts with 200 followers that posts a bunch of hot takes as insider rumors to generate clicks -
Speculative article on friction between McDermott and Staff?
Cray51 replied to BillsMafi$'s topic in The Stadium Wall
I saw one quote from a player. And usually without context these quotes are made out to be way more than they really are. One player asking about practicing accountability is not “some players think he is full of *****” -
Speculative article on friction between McDermott and Staff?
Cray51 replied to BillsMafi$'s topic in The Stadium Wall
I read the article from Dunne - it screams of little child syndrome more than anything. McD took accountability for the choke job in the playoffs several times both immediately after and weeks after the game. What more accountability does someone realistically expect? Do we want him to go second by second pointing fingers at everyone/anyone who may have played a part in the breakdown? Let's live in reality here. When you write lines like "You can't clap your way through this loss" I dont really know how you can be taken seriously. It's fandom writing and not journalism. -
Speculative article on friction between McDermott and Staff?
Cray51 replied to BillsMafi$'s topic in The Stadium Wall
I had a call this morning with two senior leadership members practically yelling at each other about strategy direction and implementation. After the call, I connected with one of the leaders, and when we talked about the conversation the response was "That's the honest discussion we need to have more often". Friction drives honesty and honesty can either make or break a team. I think Sean has shown to be very open to changing and taking others opinions to make himself better. I wont worry about this until the on field product suffers drastically -
Wonder if David Bell drops due to his 4.6 40. Guy catches everything and has plenty of speed when he is not coming out of sprinter stance. If he slips to the 3rd I’d love to grab him

It's funny, during the regular season everyone says it's a week to week league and teams that lose can still be better than teams that win. But when we get to the playoffs, there is this idea that the BEST two teams make it to the Super Bowl each year. While that may be the case MOST years, I dont believe the best teams make or even win. It's honestly the beauty and the curse of the playoffs. Bills play the Chiefs for 5 games, maybe they win 3. Bills play the Bengals for 5 - maybe they win all 5. But since its a one and done, single poorly executed moments cause a team to go from "Favorites to win the Super Bowl" to "Not a top two team in the league". I dont mind Simmons saying the Bills were the best team in the NFL - when they are at their best. Bengals had some luck go their way, and they executed when it mattered during the divisional and conference games. Does that make them the best team in the AFC? To me there is room for debate.
-
Similar to the fears Bills fans had about the team coming out flat after the Patriots game. Dont get too high or too low. I think was really happened was the Bengals adjusting their D and Mahomes went back to forcing plays over and over again. And they abandoned their screen game that has worked so well towards the end of the year.

Gunner's 2022 Mock Draft (v3 and FINAL - p.17!!)
Cray51 replied to GunnerBill's topic in The Stadium Wall
@GunnerBill what are your thoughts on David Bell out of Purdue. Not the sexy first rounder WR that people may want, but he just seems to be so productive, and I think he beats man coverage better than most in the class. Decent size (6'2) and should run around a 4.48/4.52 at the combine - so not terribly slow. I would love him as a 2nd rounder if we go another route in the 1st, but always appreciate your take on players. -
McD's Bills in postseason: 3-0 at Home, 0-4 Road.
Cray51 replied to Artem Lipatov's topic in The Stadium Wall
I see we are counting any loss as a choke job at coaching now. -
While I agree in the past Beane hasn't picked up too many high priced FAs, it takes two to tango. Imagine if Olson chose us, or Watt. Those are both big name players What I have seen, is Beane doesnt throw out large contracts in FA. He prefers 2 year deals with flexibility to adjust on the fly. I could see him trying to entice a pretty decent FA to come to Buffalo and be the player to put us over the top. I also believe we will only sign 4-5 players this year, Beane structures his roster so he doesn't need to bring in 10+ new faces (2019 being the outlier). Expect 2ish depth players, 1-2 key backups, 1-2 potential starters.

Give me Gilmore 2 years 20 million rather than Jackson 5 years at 75
-
If we have the chance on a one year deal.... I'd consider bringing back Gilmore. Tre and Gilmore can play such good blanket coverage, force teams to throw inside where Edmunds has length, and could give us a best in the NFL secondary. I know we can play zone a lot as well, but Gilmore is a steroid Levi Wallace

Sullivan: Bills' McDermott choked away Super Bowl-caliber season
Cray51 replied to QCity's topic in The Stadium Wall
But he did have a 4 point lead with 47 seconds to go and the Bills in their own territory. And he did choke that away as well. both coaches had moments they wish they could forget in the final 2 minutes. Because the two qbs are transcendent talents -
Sullivan: Bills' McDermott choked away Super Bowl-caliber season
Cray51 replied to QCity's topic in The Stadium Wall
Choked is probably an apt word, but you have to play, call, execute a hell of a game to get to the point of choking it away. i thought Mcd called a great game other than the 13 seconds. Used timeouts well, went for it when it made sense, kept the team composed. On the 3rd and 1 with the trick play, he was screaming on the sideline and knew the play before it was even snapped. You take your lumps and build. Mcd takes accountability like no other, and will learn from this -
I actually thought kick it out of the endzone. We just saw Hill return a punt to the redzone, and that game was so wild at the time I almost wanted them to slow down and force Mahomes 40 yards on two plays. Problem is, we played too soft and the play design (especially on the first pass to Hill) was executed perfectly
-
Edmunds will never be an appreciated player until he is gone and we have to fill the gap. The defense was designed to leave the LB's out to dry last night, with safeties playing back and CB's covering zone. Milano had just as bad a game if not worse than Edmunds. Next year will be the decider for Edmunds. Can he develop a better eye for attack and shoot the gap harder, or will he continue to be a good but not great MLB (which in McD's style, you need a great MLB).
-
Yes we have closed the gap. Daboll called a great game yesterday. Idk what others were watching. He very likely is gone this off-season, which will be a tough pill to swallow. McD actually called a great head coach game… until the final 13 seconds. Was aggressive and mature throughout. No wasted timeouts (until the final 13), and is continuing to improve as a coach. Frazier just coached himself out of a head coach opportunity. 42 points is just too much. we have the core locked down for at least two more years. Players will come and go, and we will continue to get better. ill say this, next year the rematch better come through Buffalo. I’m done playing them in KC
-
I suspect some weird nickel type formation where he has a corner spy Allen. Force him to Gabe Davis all day and play physical at the line against the WRs not saying it would work, but I would be spying with speed dbs to slow Allen when he gets outside the pocket

1/9/22 Gameday AFCE Champs vs Jets Postgame Thread.
Cray51 replied to Chandler#81's topic in The Stadium Wall
Give my the chargers. Herbert dealing with the wind and the Buffalo crowd. if the Bills are on we win against either team. But I don’t want the Pats drama -
Sully is simply trying to get an article by being slimy. Ask the question in a way that actually gives some insight to what the team was trying to do. ”you all played a predominantly 4-3 D against them even though they continued to run. Did you feel you had the bodies to match their physicality, and could execution have been better throughout the night?” but instead he tried to push the safeties (a top 3 combo in the league) into saying they were embarrassed or terrible tonight. It solves nothing and it’s ***** reporting
-
Poor execution is a problem for sure. We beat ourselves tonight
