  1. Glendale, AZ is essentially Phoenix (in the same way I’d say Niagara is essentially Buffalo) so they have a team.
  2. They say Kansas City, MO and Kansas City, KS is the equivalent of Dallas and Ft Worth, just smaller, so you might be on to something!
  3. Tom Brady wasn't the most gifted athlete, but he’s probably the closest to perfection at the QB position the NFL has had. From his diet, to his training regiment, to his obsessive studying of film… even he made mistakes. Mahomes has physical abilities that Brady never had, but isn’t as obsessed with his diet. Given that his average time to release the ball hovers closer to 3 seconds, he’s probably more like Josh when it comes to film study than Brady who almost always knew where he was going with the ball. No athlete is perfect, or will ever be, but the question is “what is he doing during the offseason to chase perfection?” None of us here can definitively answer how Josh spends his time, but he’s told us his preferred approach. And it’s not an obsessive one, nor does it have to be for the Bills to beat KC in the playoffs and win a championship. They’ve gotta get better around him.
  4. When Kurt Warner dissected the play, he said based on the look the defense was giving he would’ve came off the Shakir read and looked for the crosser. He thought Shakir wouldn’t have came open given how the safeties were playing. Obviously Shakir did pop open after waiting, but Josh had his foot stepped on by Dawkins and the play failed. Josh wouldn’t have had to wait if his intention was to go for the crosser. And who knows, if he hit Diggs maybe the Bills score a TD with little time remaining and the Chiefs don’t win back to back SBs.
  5. Josh definitely has room for improvement, like every QB in the NFL, so saying he can’t possibly play better is silly. Getting better at pre-snap reads has to rank highest on his agenda, but the only way that improves is through watching much more film, something he admits he’s not keen to do. With that said, the reason the Bills haven’t won a Super Bowl isn’t because Josh has failed the team or come up small in the playoffs. We all know the defense, whether ranked #1 or #15, hasn’t been able to pull its weight when it matters. If that unit had a guy step up and make a crucial play when it matters, like Chris Jones has for the Chiefs multiple years, Allen and the Bills would likely have at least one Lombardi by now.
  6. One disappointing first round pick for another: CB Kaiir Elam to Detroit for WR Jameson Williams. Who’s with me?
  7. Probably anticipated being released soon after the season and was putting in a bid for his hometown team.
  8. What’s his projection? I’d use one of the 4ths with the hope he beats out Edwards at LG. Seems more talented.
  9. Creed scored a perfect 10 on the RAS. Limmer scored a 9.82 with his biggest detriment being his weight, so you’re not far off with the comparison!
  10. If you long press the link it’ll give you an option to see a preview without going to the page.
  11. He’s had 2 colossal draft blunders: Basham over Humphrey and Ford over Metcalf. Neither of those picks were hindsight, everyone here was clamoring for the player that didn’t get picked.
  12. Remember the Diggs tweet that set the Bills trade in motion? “It’s time for a change” I’m sure there were Vikings fans doing the same as Bills fans, defending his posts, arguing he was just talking about changing his bed sheets. He has a toxic personality.
  13. Settle had one great rep where he destroyed Quentin Nelson and then nothing else really.
  14. What’s the story on Jerome Baker? I thought he was one of the better Dolphin defenders, but he’s still a FA. Don’t know how healthy he is, but I’m a bit surprised he hasn’t signed somewhere. I would’ve liked him over Morrow.
  15. He’s definitely better at stopping the run/setting the edge than rushing the passer, but he still wasn’t among the top 10 DEs in run stop win rate.
  16. I’ll just say, I’m glad some posters on here aren’t GM of the Bills. We’d be worse than the drought years.
  17. Thank god the Panthers prevented that pitfall for us. Johnson is their problem now.
  18. If there’s not an easy out on that Diggs contract within the next two years, that’ll be the next albatross choking this team.
  19. In no universe should the value of an offensive guard be MORE than that of any RB. RBs run, catch, block for the QB, and touch the ball 2-3x more than any number one wideout on a team. They have a sound argument to be paid more.
  20. Who is Carolina’s GM? Is there a more bumbling, poorly ran team in the league right now?
  21. That’s not true. He was far and away our best pass rusher before the knee injury. What was it, 8 sacks in 10 games? It wasn’t only the sacks either, he consistently got pressure. In the game against the Chiefs last year Eric Washington schemed the DL around what Von wanted to do rather than have a defined role or rush attack for each player; his defensive line mates responded off of him. That’s rare to give a player that much freedom, but he had earned it. He was a total dud in 2023, but 2022 he was still a menace. The Bills season hinges in many ways on him getting back to form, or at least close to it.
  22. It’s funny how Shaq Lawson was a consensus first round pick and Jones was a projected late 1st-early 2nd. Had we picked Jones at 19 with Lawson still on the board everyone would’ve been up in arms. Fast forward to 7 years later…
  23. I’d guess a reaction to all the cuts he recently witnessed.
  24. I’m sure the “2” could be easily dispelled by asking any devoted Steeler fan if Diontae Johnson dropped more than two passes last year. Their fans get super frustrated with him too. He’s like a more talented Isaiah McKenzie with the same penchant for dumb occurrences. I wouldn’t trade a 7th for him, mentally, he’s not the type of WR this team needs.
