Lost

Cincy worse in my book. Game was brutal to watch for one, unlike the KC game. Secondly, I still had high hopes for this season after the Chiefs won last years game. This year's exit exposed a LOT of holes and I have all but zero hopes or expectations for a deep playoff run next season.

I would wager that almost everyone here was on the old board.

I agree with you, we didn't have enough depth outside and Beane seemed to have a penchant for slot guys. Drafted Shakir, Signed Crowder, Keeps McKenzie, Signs Hines, Signs Beasley. That's five roster spots for rotational slot gadget guys...kind of absurd when you look back at it.

I will give Beane the slightest of breaks on the WR position. Going into the playoffs last year Gabe Davis was on absolute fire and really looked like he was going to be a true WR2 at that point, even a good WR2. Nobody really saw his regression coming. We still shoulda been trying to find more depth at the position though. This draft just about has to be perfect for the Bills to remain competitive next year. OL, WR, OL, S. Resign Edmunds, Let Poyer find a new home.

Has there been instances of him actually doing this? The only play calling I ever see him do is calling for an extra point after TD

I was originally for Dorsey being promoted as that's who Josh was comfortable with but looking back on it now, I feel like Dorsey is kind of in a position now since being heavily endorsed by him, will never challenge Josh Allen if he notices him start trending the wrong path as far as decision making, mechanics etc. Josh for better or worse, owns the Buffalo Bills right now figuratively speaking. Not saying any offensive regression is on Allen but in the case it were, I feel like Daboll was better suited to get it corrected.

I'm not disagreeing with you. I'm saying the Bills, based on how this season ended will need a year or two to really reset and get pieces in place. The Jets absolutely nailed their draft last year with Wilson Gardner and Hall. Based on how they have been drafting compared to us, our best hope is to maybe take a beating from them next year while they bet the franchine on a declining vet QB by giving away premium picks.

This is an era of young QBs look who's left in playoff contention.

Sorry but the Sorry but the Bills are in a worse position to make a SB run next year and I like the idea of our divisional foe trading away future draft capital on a guy who's at the tail end of his career. Also it doesn't matter who our opposing QB is, we've made Mike White and Skyler Thompson look like all pros this season

Please let it be true 😂🤣

Not in good shape as in she may never fully recover? I've been waiting months to hear some new on her health but it seems there's been such a tight lid on it.

It goes both ways though. Remember when the echo chamber was Donald Trump conspired with Vladimir Putin to rig the 2016 election? There is no truth in today's society. Truth is purely defined by peoples political ideology.

Someone please explain the Denver Airport

Having Damar Hamlin back in the building should have been a source of inspiration and motivation not an excuse for fatigue.

Couldn't muster up 3 hours of effort to get over that hump so now instead they get to slog through another 7-8 months next year just to maybe get to the same spot that they were at 3pm on Sunday.

I actually like Poso and enjoy some of his insights but this is a horrendous take by him.

RB over OL or WR??

I'm amazed at how many fans still want us to go after yet another RB for an offense that doesn't want to run the ball 🤪

Well it's true, but we have to ask ourselves how we ended up with so many glaring holes at this point? Take away Diggs and Allen, this team is probably a sub .500 team. Our talent evaluation has been a mess the last few years not to mention constantly wasting cap space on rotational/situational players. Our number 1 draft pick cornerback saw less than 50% defensive snaps this year. Our 2nd round draft pick running back less than 25% offensive snaps. Did we even need an RB2 or RB3(Hines)? We clearly didn't even put much emphasis on running the ball this season. Quoting @MAJBobby from another thread here because he summed it up well. "Was clear they wanted a Pass Catching RB. Continued that obsession at the trade deadline. So who was driving that desire? Dorsey? Beane? McD? Allen? I doubt it as McD or Allen so that is on Beane and Dorsey. So here were those plays? There was no screens, the angle routes and Cook out of the backfield routes we hear so much about in the offseason where not there. Some of that could have been on Allen not taking the easier throw, but again lets get to offensive design, if that was wanted SO MUCH. Why were there not plays designed for the RB to be the first read??" Another instance. Wanting that TE2 again they prioritized a second pass catching TE in the offseason, Morris beats out Howard this offseason with the 2 TE sets, earns the spot and then those plays nonexistent. So the two priorities (that I can only think Dorsey wanted) were addressed, then the season comes and we get a poor mans Brian Daboll offense" The Bills have targeted a lot of situational players and then never really utilized them(Crowder, Cook, Hines, Man coverage DB in Elam when they want to play zone. These our problems created from the top down in my opinion and unless change starts happening at the top, it's just going to be more of the same.

The loss itself was not painful for me but the realization that the next year or two are going to be worse. Last year was our year, this year was our year. We're not going to have too many years left where Josh Allen can take control of a game with his legs alone. Diggs is going to be 30 next year. Those two basically propped this team up on their own. We need major changes in offensive/defensive scheme, talent evaluation etc. This management and coaching staff is too tightly knit for me to expect any real change at this point. I don't see Pegula firing Beane, I dont see Beane firing McD, I don't See McD firing Dorsey or Frazier. Long story short. I don't see change coming fast enough to not squander the prime years of the talent we do have in the process. Hope they prove me wrong.

To be fair. Josh Allen didn't seem to be spitting fire the way he was against the chiefs in last year's divisional round so I will agree with you on that. Overall though the loss yesterday seemed to fall more on coaching and team building than anything. Years of misused draft picks is starting to show it's ugly face. There's no other explanation for such an ugly physical mismatch on both lines.

Hoping we See Cincy vs 49ers in SuperBowl. Rooting for 49ers to win it.

I think the biggest mistake of the game was not taking the opening kickoff before field conditions worsened. Had the Bills got the ball and marched down the field first and scored it might have boosted the morale of the team enough to make the game more competitive.

I don't want to hear talk of paying another RB of any caliber until we are heavily invested in at least 2 to 3 stud OLinemen

Groot has shown flashes but when we have speed edge guys like him and von vs. a QB like Burrow or Brady who simply step up in the pocket they just spend most the game just blowing right by QB, especially when the guys in the middle are getting no push.
