Frazier is sticking around as far as I know. I think Dorsey gives the Bills sufficient continuity to to build on the past two years rather than take a step back.

Smart choice.

I prefer not to consider that possibility.

I think Trubisky might be hard to retain. If he can sign somewhere that he has better odds of getting on the field, he'll grab the opportunity. I could live with any of the three in the middle of the list: Darnold, Mariota, Webb. They all have some mobility like Allen. They all have good arms, if not at Allen's level, and they have decent mobility. All three lack consistency, which is why we're talking about them as backups. I think any of the three would come at an affordable price, and Buffalo's coaches have proven to be adept at putting players, including QBs in a position to succeed. The knock on Trubisky in Chicago was inconsistency, and he did fine as Allen's backup.

If Ross tried to bribe Flores to lose games as Flores alleges, I think it has less to do with gambling than Ross's desire for the #1 overall draft pick that year. I've heard plenty of Bills fans in hears past, when the Bills were bad, advocate losing for a better draft position. That doesn't make it right, but I think it's separate issue from the whole gambling thing.

With the success that Buffalo has had on offense over the past 2 years, I expect that Dorsey will do more tweaking of the present system and play calling, and less overhauling. Could he call more 12 personnel plays? Yeah, some, but I don't expect it to become a staple.

Back when we heard reports about Josh Allen's Senior Bowl week, my reaction was that I was "intrigued." I thought he had elite traits, but needed development. I understood at the time that having elite traits does not guarantee success in the league. I think Ryan Leaf had some pretty elite traits too. Now Malik Willis: If I were a QB needy team I would be intrigued by him, but I would understand the risk. There is always a risk in drafting any QB. Most never become starting caliber QBs in the NFL. Even first round QBs are hit or miss, and few every become elite out of all who are drafted. But if you need a QB, it's nearly impossible to obtain a proven veteran. If you draft a QB, it's rare that you can find a QB who has both polish and a full set of elite traits, ala Josh Allen. So the teams looking for QBs in the upcoming draft will have to decide if they want to take a chance that a QB who has plenty of experience in a high level college program has enough of a skill set to help a team make the playoffs and maybe win a Super Bowl (the risk New England took with Mac Jones), or do they take a chance on a freak of nature from a school like Liberty University. I have nothing against the guy, and the team that drafts him may or may not end up with a great one. I'm just glad Buffalo took a chance on Josh Allen, and it turned out the way it did.

My reaction to all this stuff coming out of New York: Don't hire Jason Garret to be the Bills new OC.

I hope is someone who incorporates Erhardt-Perkins and is creative. I don't want the Bills to have to reinvent the wheel on offense.

It's a lose - lose for New England and the Raiders! I love it!

I don't think there's any reason Buffalo couldn't win the Super Bowl with Singletary as their feature back, but I've said before (and gotten plenty of negative emojis for it) that Singletary is limited, and Buffalo can't successfully do as many things with him as they might with a more complete back. If you can upgrade, you should, but if there are other positions where an upgrade is more critical (I'm thinking CB and DT) you'd better do those first.

It doesn't make a lot of sense to me for Dorey to leave Buffalo. It's not just the difference between the Buffalo and NY Giants offense, (and starting QB) and the likelihood that Buffalo will be a playoff caliber team for several years, it's the fact that in NY he would always be the second ranked offensive minded guy on the coaching staff. If Dorsey is confident, he has what it takes to be the offensive guru of his team, it seems to me as if he would be less comfortable having an offensive minded head coach looking over his shoulder. If Dorsey is not that confident, and wants to be able to go to his head coach for advice ono drawing up plays, I'm not sure I want him for my OC.

I'd be OK with any of the first three options. I'm not so enthusiastic about trading away multiple draft picks.

I'd love to have Metcalf. The biggest obstacle to making a trade would be the contract he's due to earn when his rookie deal is up. The success Buffalo has enjoyed has mad managing the salary cap more challenging. For that reason I think Beane would steer clear of that deal. He doesn't tend to splurge like that for what might end up being a short term gain.

Just 13 seconds and Buffalo could have been in the Super Bowl.

Sorry for your loss. I did a search on the site's search engine of "MOVALLEYRANDY." There were a number of references to that username, but no actual posts came up by him. I wonder why.

Buffalo is clearly slower than KC, but Buffalo is faster than New England. At this point Buffalo's rivalry is with KC, and they need to get faster to gain the edge on KC.

KC running the rest of the table easily tells me that Buffalo-KC was the real Super Bowl, and Buffalo came within a hair of winning it.

Jameson Williams might be a BPA pick at that point. Free agency will be a strong factor in determining whether Buffalo should address a clearer need. With Diggs in the fold and the emergence of Gabe Davis, WR is probably not a real acute need even assuming Sanders is gone. I would be surprised if both Beasley and McKenzie are gone along with Sanders, and I wouldn't be that inclined to want to use either Davis or J. Williams in the slot that much. I do want to see Buffalo upgrade in free agency or the draft at CB, DT and interior offensive line.

I think the Chiefs are the favorite, among the four teams left. Should they win easily as the OP posits, it would suggest that maybe the "real Super Bowl" was the Chiefs-Bills game. For that reason, I would lean in favor of that outcome, but I'm not heavily invested emotionally in that.

There are some rumors that Daboll is going to get the Miami head coach job. . If that does happen, and Dorsey has strong ties to the area because of his college career, I could see that happening. On the other side of the ledger, Dorsey won't find any better situation as an offensive coordinator than he would have in Buffalo. He would probably be well compensated. There won't be any opportunity in the league to go to a situation that is set up better for success than Buffalo. It doesn't hurt that he seems to have a great relationship with Josh Allen.

Good decision. Honestly, we'll never know if he might have gone had he been elected. It's possible the decision to skip it was motivated more by concern over his own body. The snub certainly doesn't give him any reasons to want to play.

I'd like to see the Bills upgrade a couple areas of the team in the off season. If they can do that and stay relatively healthy, The Bills will have a chance to win in every game they play.

Josh Allen has always made it pretty clear he wants to be the best.

It will be interesting to see how Beane manages the cap this offseason. How he does it will determine what the Bills can do in terms of signing free agents. If the money is there, Beane is willing to spend it, but he tends to sign older guys to short term deals (Emmanuel Sanders). If a guy is in his thirties and wants a four year deal, he might not get it from Beane.
