Dragonborn10 Posted October 8, 2017 Posted October 8, 2017 Give McDermott and Beane credit for fixing the defense faster than anyone could imagine. Some of it is just getting rid of Ryan but still the FO should get the credit. But, going into the game with a rookie WR that can't catch as the only viable WR is inexcusable. Even with Mathews they are a below average to bad group. They must make a trade. They need a true deep threat or they will never get the running game going.

I like the team comes 1st concept , but its very possible Buffalo is 5 - 0 with Sammy IMO.
Dragonborn10 Posted October 8, 2017 Author Posted October 8, 2017 O-line is a disgrace. Why sign Groy and start Ducasse? Why is Mills in the NFL? If the wanted to rest Glenn until Tampa then why dress him this week? Dawkins is much much worse than CK. The run scheme blows too.
Perry Turtle Posted October 8, 2017 Posted October 8, 2017 That WR group today was terrible. Can't remember the last time that the Bills started a game with a worse set of WRs. The offense lacks explosiveness and the play calling looks like its trying to build 15 play drives. The decision to pass on Watson and trade Watkins looks bad today.
Dragonborn10 Posted October 8, 2017 Author Posted October 8, 2017 I like the team comes 1st concept , but its very possible Buffalo is 5 - 0 with Sammy IMO.What was the downside of keeping Watkins this year? None. If he was great then tag him ot let him walk for a big contract and get the comp pick.Gaines is good but Darby was serviceable too.
Dr.Sack Posted October 8, 2017 Posted October 8, 2017 Dareus played a solid game today, but our weapons on offense are severely limited.
SaviorPeterman Posted October 8, 2017 Posted October 8, 2017 What was the downside of keeping Watkins this year? None. If he was great then tag him ot let him walk for a big contract and get the comp pick. Gaines is good but Darby was serviceable too. I've been saying this too and I've never even been a Watkins fan. It's just hard to understand this new regime's thought process if they truly weren't tanking and expected to compete with a makeshift WR roster that's arguably among the worst, if not the absolute worst, since the drought started 17 years ago. Bottom line is Beane telegraphed this offense being one dimensional and the consequences that have resulted now that McCoy and the entire running game has been rendered obsolete in Buffalo.

26CornerBlitz Posted October 8, 2017 Posted October 8, 2017 We're on to the bye week. Perfect time to regroup and get healthy.
BillsMedia Posted October 8, 2017 Posted October 8, 2017 Steelers lost to the Jags, its called the NFL.
Real McClappy Posted October 8, 2017 Posted October 8, 2017 (edited) What was the downside of keeping Watkins this year? None. If he was great then tag him ot let him walk for a big contract and get the comp pick. Gaines is good but Darby was serviceable too. I don't follow comp picks. What would the Bills have got though if Watkins would have signed as a FA after this year on a different team? Edited October 8, 2017 by Real McCoy
Jasovon Posted October 8, 2017 Posted October 8, 2017 don't trade for anyone, this is not a superbowl winning team a WR does not put us over the top.
Scott7975 Posted October 8, 2017 Posted October 8, 2017 Maybe they can call the Rams and offer a first rounder for Watkins. They arent using him anyways. 1 catch last week. So far this week he has 1 target, no catches and 5 different receivers have caught a football for them.
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted October 8, 2017 Posted October 8, 2017 I've been saying this too and I've never even been a Watkins fan.

Bottom line is Beane telegraphed this offense being one dimensional and the consequences that have resulted now that McCoy and the entire running game has been rendered obsolete in Buffalo. The thought process was get rid of watkins, who they probably viewed as injury prone and a cancer and who they were going to let walk anyway-- and then get Jordan Matthews as a stop gap for this year. I also suspect they figured Zay would help with the drop off.
8-8 Forever? Posted October 8, 2017 Posted October 8, 2017 ya bunch a babies. this team is performing so much better than we thought they'd be
mannc Posted October 8, 2017 Posted October 8, 2017 Perfect time to regroup and get healthy. It's a bump in the road. Five very winnable games in a row coming up. Should be no worse than 7-3 going into KC on thanksgiving weekend.
Figster Posted October 8, 2017 Posted October 8, 2017 maybe but no ej gaines today was a huge loss injuries really hurt us, no doubt about it.
1st Ammendment NoMas Posted October 8, 2017 Posted October 8, 2017 Watkins does nothing if the QB can't get the ball to him or sails it ten feet over his head or at his feet.
Green Lightning Posted October 8, 2017 Posted October 8, 2017 O-line is a disgrace. Why sign Groy and start Ducasse? Why is Mills in the NFL? If the wanted to rest Glenn until Tampa then why dress him this week? Dawkins is much much worse than CK. The run scheme blows too. Agree on why Groy is not at RG. He's an immediate upgrade. Injuries are terrible, but we lost today because of poor QB play, and that's the harsh truth.
