I dont expect him to actually even try to bend a corner until the playoffs. For whatever that means to anyone.

first, appropriate screen name. but more importantly does the board censor the word... ***** lol it does

Or maybe just a simple failure in coaching.

Kinda, yes. But at the same time, Edmunds just left in FA. We were going into camp with only Milano, and then a bunch of question marks. Across our entire LB unit. We were and are far better off at Safety and WR than LB from just a numbers game.

The very CB we were trying to draft, and the one we should have gotten before the panic pick. Even with Beane's good grades now, they would have been even better had he just been able to pull off McDuffie instead of Elam.

So more and more looking like just another day in Niagara Falls, US.

From US to Canada, confirmed Definitely on purpose, you'd have to imagine a terrorist attack one way or another. Didnt England just warn Canada about possible terrorist activity this week?

I definitely agree that Cook and Shakir should have been used much more last year. It's a fair complaint, @Don Otreply, especially when we see other teams like the Chiefs rely (and get real production) from rookies. I was even a little surprised myself when I thought about it and saw those 4 names and their production this year.

Cook and Shakir were just drafted last year, and Kincaid and Torrence this year. 🤷‍♂️

I believe that was the previous draft strategy when the roster was already PACKED with veterans and most draft picks werent going to be counted on to start. They could pick guys with higher ceilings but needing development work. That has changed, and will definitely change going into next season. And we saw Beane shift to picking players that could play immediately in Kincaid and Torrence. At least I'm hoping that was all on purpose.

I voted C before and B now, but I could have just as easily voted B and B. Really, it was a B- before this season and has gone up to a solid B+. I dont expect even the best GMs to be perfect, but I can't give him an A because of a couple of picks he should have known better on. Namely, Basham over Humphrey, and the Elam desperation pick. Although I wont argue with anyone who does want to give him an A. But Ed Oliver taking the next step, Cook and Bernard showing they can play, and Kincaid and Torrence stepping right in and playing like experienced vets definitely raises his grade. This coming offseason and draft will be especially crucial. We'll likely be rebuilding most of our secondary (expecting White, Poyer, and Hyde gone), and need to add to the OL (Morse likely gone), AND most importantly find that "next #1WR talent". Will be interesting to see how Beane addresses it all.

Philips was more than happy to be the first guy in the middle to "break it up", all while sarcastically waving in their face and telling them to go to their locker room, and begging them to do something. If you think he was there to innocently and purely ensure no violence ensued, then you do not know Jordan Philips

Let Jimbo COOK!

I believe it was in the latest Kurt Warner breakdown where he showed a couple plays and presnap said (closely paraphrasing) "now this play is designed to work against man, and we would check out of it against zone, but the Bills dont do that, some offenses dont do that. They run the play and leave it to the players to make it work." And that was him trying to DEFEND Dorsey. To me, that said everything I needed to hear to know Dorsey had to go.

Happy Birthday, NG!

What's the forest then? Pegula being content with 1st/2nd round playoff exits for Josh's entire career? That is what he is paying $250M for? Agreed 100%. There is enough talent on this Offense to score and win every week. It's all been how we use them, or rather, how we HAVENT used them. It would be nice to bring in a big talent with major speed. But there is plenty of talent available to use. Josh, Diggs, Kincaid, Shakir, Cook, Murray, and then even Davis. Plenty there to work with.

Because the next guy on lil Sauce was Spencer Brown and Sauce wanted NO PIECE of that monster.

Jordan Phillips and Shaq Lawson have a bone to pick with this statement. I've also heard JOSH is the biggest ***** talked on our entire team. edit: Just watched the clip. First one in: Jordan Philips. Bro is always down to throw.

That's fine. Whether the play call was new, or the execution was new, it's still a change with the new OC. Maybe he called that play out in practice this week and reinforced to Josh what he is supposed to be doing instead of Dorsey's approach. Just like the called Josh runs last night. They didnt gain much yardage, but just calling them and putting that threat out there changes things.

The James Cook TD Pass showed me everything I need to know that it is a step up from Dorsey to Brady. The design of the play actually schemed Cook wide open. It wasn't a play where we were lining up and asking our receivers to win based on nothing but skill and speed. We actually set up our players in a position to succeed by getting Cook open before the ball was even snapped. More of that please and thank you.

Why would you suspect that conversation ever happened when we opened with back to back plays forcing the ball to Diggs on swing passes? That conversation never happened. That was never the plan. They just properly adjusted to what the Defense was playing, and it worked, and Diggs is plenty happy because we won. As long as the Offense is clicking, and we're moving the ball and scoring, and most importantly WINNING, you will never hear a peep out of Diggs. Except his continuing leadership and support of his team mates.

Good list, except items 5 and 6 arent McD's responsibility. I agree 100% with the remaining 5. I think the other 2 GM items will happen regardless. Morse, Poyer, and White are good as gone. Just those 3 gives us $20M in cap back. Cutting Deonte Harty gives us another $4M. I do see us going DB and WR in the draft. We BETTER pay Epenesa and Floyd.

It was nice to get a dominant win last night, against a team we should dominate. Let's see how it goes through this gauntlet of a schedule coming up. Dorsey wasnt the only problem on this team. Anyone assuming it will be all suncshine and rainbows from here is in for a bad time. I think McD's seat is still hot depending how the rest of this season goes. I'd still like to see us take the next step and bring in that O coach.

This just isnt true. Not for how the Bills are structured, and not for how business is done in the modern NFL. No clear out. No tear down. No restart. Example: See the Miami Dolphins. Had a low-key, "high-integrity" Defensive minded Head Coach whose teams always underperformed and came up short. (Sound familiar?) They canned him and brought in a young, hot shot, Offensive coach. No GM change. No major roster changes. And he has hit the ground running, they have seen immediate improvement, and will likely take the Division over us this year. You worry about wasting Josh's best years in a change, but from the evidence presented it looks like we are on track to waste him on McD.

lol, i just saw this one. deleted my haircut thread. Our boy is back!
