I think that will depend on the offseason we have. Guys like Hyde talking up Buffalo and what the whole league has seen happen this year bodes well for us I think. I think it makes some FA's who wouldn't have considered us before change their position a bit. I don't think we are just a bargaining chip anymore. Hopefully we can get a win somehow on Sunday and that train keeps rolling. I'm excited about our future at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are some plays that remain head-scratchers this year, but if you can't be optimistic about McDermott as our head coach, you just need something to whine about. He's everything you want in a leader: honest, centered, selfless and willing to admit when he's wrong. Watch him greeting every player in the locker room after the win vs. the Fish. Even better, find the video of him when Cincy scored on 4th and 12. Tells me all I need to know about this man. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard not to be excited, this team should have quite the influx of young talent over the next few years. And you are right about guys like Hyde helping recruit key FA's that normally would have no interest in Buffalo even if big money is potentially being thrown their way.

FLFan Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 22 minutes ago, SaviorPeterman said: Like I said before, the Dolphins should be a cautionary tale for all Bills fans heading into 2018. They were a very good team last year (much better than this years Bills team) and were expected to be a SB contender this year by most experts (including myself). But a season ending injury to their franchise QB and other suspensions/injuries heading into the 2017 campaign pretty much derailed their season. Although you still have to give Gase a lot of credit for getting them off to a 4-2 start even if it was a mirage in hindsight. So now your an expert? In your own mind maybe. The Dolphins were a mirage last year. They got into the playoffs because the Bills handed them two games. They were not "much better" than this year's Bills team. They were and are weak at QB, and have a team full of me first chuckleheads. No one with any real sense considered them a super bowl contender.

Dolphins are a very talented team across the board at just about every position, and they certainly weren't a mirage last year. Also unlike the Bills this year they didn't need help to clinch a playoff spot winning 9 of their final 11 games to finish the season. Also you can argue the Bills got into the playoffs this year for the same reason, Dolphins handed them two games. Either way the crux of my argument remains, the Bills could easily disappoint next season just like Miami did this year after ending a playoff drought with a new regime and first year head coach.

Must have been hard for you to criticize the phins. You are right on the other stuff too, but I do think the ownership, fans, and players will be much more likely to give them the benefit of the doubt for longer now. Look for McD through at least 2020 regardless of results of the next 2 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The drought was such a noose for any coach/gm. I fixed that for you. Whaley focused on building the best roster he could. McDermott and Beane focus on building the best team they can. Big difference even though it can be subtle at times and other times not so subtle. Edited January 4, 2018 by matter2003 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw plenty of media coverage coming into the season saying that all the one score games the7 snuck by in 16 probably wouldn't go their way in 17.
