Coach Tuesday

Howard will land with a patient team like the Giants or Ravens and play at a high level for a decade.

I think you're underrating Gilleslee a bit Badol - his running style looks just like Fred Jax - great balance and vision. He will be successful in other systems if they leave (and his Instagram post last week suggested that he thinks he's leaving).

I am with you on all of the above. I am still not sold that they gave Tyrod the right contract at the right time.

Do you have an opinion about Tyrod, Ryan?

I mean, I guess - but he had put some bad tape out there by mid-season and it wasn't all because of the scrub WRs he was playing with - he was missing open reads all over the field. I agree he improved by the end of the year but still, seems to me the better approach would've been to wait. I suppose it's possible that his agent effectively told the Bills "it's now or never" in August and if so, Ty has bigger balls than I thought...

Not sure I follow - what if they had waited until mid-season? Couldn't they have dropped the price for 2017 by about $10M?

Will someone explain to me why the Bills had to give Tyrod that contract at that time? They did this to themselves. Whaley continues to amaze me.

I wish they charted slip-and-falls, both on and off the field. The Bills would be a mile ahead of the next closest team. In all seriousness, perhaps this at least will force them to fix the RT position.

I know that's a popular viewpoint here - KTD says the same about Sammy - but I disagree with it as a team-building approach. Yes, you need to collect star players. But no, you can't do so without considering the limited draft and cap resources you have, and the overall context of your roster. You also have to consider the value of the player in the context of the talent pool available at the time; BB wrongly believed there were other comparable options at WR in that draft (he was wrong); some of us rightly believed that the talent that Sammy possessed wasn't sufficiently unique considering the depth of receiver talent in that draft (OBJ, Evans, etc.) - we may have been right. Scouting is about acquiring talent. Team-building is about collecting the right talent at the right time, using the right amount of resources. Doug Whaley is a good scout. He is a horrible team-builder. If the Falcons made that trade without already having Matt Ryan on their roster, it would've gone from incredibly expensive to downright idiotic. See: Sammy Watkins.

Chris Wesseling had better hurry and return that book to the library. LOL Jonathan Baldwin. BB has never been great at evaluating college WRs. That said, I didn't think Julio would be this good - he struck me as more of an athlete than a player in college.

All of the guys they targeted for OC run a more sophisticated passing attack than anything we've seen here in quite awhile. Perhaps they're finally understanding that points are generated by the passing game; wins are preserved by the running game. You need both.

You want wins? I have lots of wins. I have the best wins!

He is going to focus on translating for the QB how Dennison wants his offense run. As for the KC wide receivers, I really don't hold that against this guy - Alex Smith HATES throwing more than 4 yards past the LOS.

He deserves it - it's very courageous to tackle shoulder-first.

If they can land Adams and then trade back into the 20s to take Mahomes, I'll throw a party.

Say more - seems like a lateral move but am I right that he is rounding out his resume?

For a guy to take a weird lateral move like this, it tells me he was either about to be fired (unlikely) or, more likely, has been identified as a rising star as an OC/HC and wants to round out his resume by proving that he can coach up the most important position on offense. If so I'm intrigued.

I wonder if those of you advocating for Glennon and Foles have ever watched them play. It's not a pretty sight.

Foles is a terrible QB. He was only briefly successful in a very specific system that was designed to clearly define his reads and minimize his mistakes, and he ultimately flamed out of that system in any event. He has been given up on by multiple OCs. As a pure mechanical thrower he might - might - have an edge on Tyrod, but Ty's ability to gain first downs and score points with his legs more than makes up for that differential. Foles is a bottom-fourth QB and I think you'd find that his value around the league is much, much lower than Tyrod's.

Sorry but that is wildly wrong.

Branch is actually a very smart dude. He made his own bed in Buffalo by getting pulled over by the cops at 2 am the night before a game - that was outrageous.

Looked to me like he had no idea how to run in the snow. I'm serious.

To amplify what JohnC said - The Bills have a roster full of Michael Floyds - talented idiots. The Patriots benched Floyd yesterday in favor of their Chris Hogans - intelligent, high-effort players. The results are obvious. Incidentally, another former Bill, Alan Branch, was phenomenal as a run-stuffer this year.

Hi. We're talking about the offensive line.
