Coach Tuesday

Or it suggests small sample size?

Most insufferable person in the NFL.

Agree with this. And no one would call me a "homer" around here - I don't think enough is said about how much Allen's teammates rally behind him. This is not lost on GMs around the league, they see it. Having a guy like Allen who works harder than anyone, is great to be around, inspires and engages with the community, is clean as a whistle off the field, is "all ball," and is, as one exec put it in an Athletic article I read the other day, "the most competitive player on that roster," is simply invaluable to have in addition to his outer-worldly athletic ability. Not to say that the other guys on that list aren't of a similar ilk - Mahomes probably is, Burrow might be getting there. Herbert is low-key, I don't know yet if guys are running through walls for him; Murray is hyper-competitive but also tends to sulk when things go poorly - his leadership skills have been openly questioned. My point is, Allen brings so much to the table, he's a unicorn, nearly any team in the league with kill to have a guy like him in the fold. It's inarguable at this point.

A random topic would be “what is the difference between a bistro and a cafe?”

There was ONE POSTER who complained about Phillips and he was the first one to show up this past week and own it. One.

Interesting. Oddly enough, I thought the week before, in New England, he showed a mastery of the touch pass all game - it was his best-ever game with those types of passes IMO. And it was plenty cold. Yet one week later he was back to throwing only fastballs.

Wow everyone is really on-brand in this sorry thread.

Like Trubisky?

Either way I don't think he'll be too expensive if they want to keep him on a team-friendly deal. His skills aren't too valuable on the open market - it's not like he came on late with a bevy of sacks or INTs, for example.

But those idiot fans with their premature declarations...

And yet in another way it's far too early to declare Phillips a "cornerstone" of anything. He's come on in the second half of this season. Before that he was in danger of losing his job. It's still far from clear he can sustain his current level of play nor is it a sure thing that he'll remain a starter even if they bring him back next year.

SMH...

Ok.

What kind of sh-- post is this? Oliver has played great this year. Phillips has played really well the last few games. Why you'd take all of that as an opportunity to chest-thump and berate fellow Bills fans is beyond me. You had nothing to do with either player's success and it's not as if you've been running around championing those two as hidden gems on this forum.

Arians has no one but himself to blame.

There is literally a thread on this right below yours….

As someone said upthread - the Bills need to add one or two YAC monsters to their offense. Can’t remember the last time someone besides Allen broke a tackle upfield. Defenses kept the Bills in front of them this season and they lacked the offensive personnel to take advantage of the space. Beasley is WASHED.

Their drafting and development have been really good. Two years where their QB got hurt they suffered poor records. Most teams will.

One of your better ones. Agree Josh was throwing too many fastballs. Re the DBs, even on Pitts’ big play the defensive back (think it was Levi) was right there and almost made a play on the ball - Pitts pulled it away from him and then took off for a big gain.

He's far more credentialed than John Lynch who has done just fine in SF.

Mediocrity would be an upgrade for that franchise. They need a GM, coach and scouting department pulling in the same, sane direction for a few years.

Daboll tries to conduct science experiments on supposedly inferior opponents and it often explodes in his face. It’s highly frustrating.

Riddick is in his early 50s and neither Riddick nor Dungy are "retreads" and it would be an all-minority leadership team in the jewel of the NFL's old franchises. What are you talking about?

Those are three really great individuals (Dungy, Riddick and Frazier) and I'd be happy for all of them if this comes to fruition.

Would love to see what Sean Peyton could do with Baker. Same height as Brees.
