Who needs a QB NEXT year and will move up and pay handsomely for it? Hear me out....... Patriots*, Giants, Chargers, Buccaneers. The Bucs will come back to earth here shortly and may be done with the Crab-stealer. Who knows about the Giants. Pats* may think ahead or NEED to think ahead if Brady retires. Rivers isn't getting any younger.
26CornerBlitz Posted October 5, 2018 Posted October 5, 2018 12 hours ago, The Bills Blog said: I concede that it's a big If, but if Josh Allen is good, the following statement is likely 100% true: In the next 15 years, the Bills will never be as bad as they are now. Only looking up. If this is indicative of your Bills Blog material, I can't wait to sign up for it for further enlightenment. 1
Chris66 Posted October 5, 2018 Posted October 5, 2018 Is that like saying the Bills will be better this year because the offense cant be as bad as last year?

Drunken Pygmy Goat Posted October 5, 2018 Posted October 5, 2018 That was probably the least encouraging thing I could have read after opening this thread.

I just think that ppl need to at least entertain the fact that this is all planned for this year....... I just think McD wants to see more fight out of his guys....even if they are not a good team. 1

Tom Coughlin may not be on the sideline, but he can dictate who will be. According to a Sirius XM report, Coughlin, named Jaguars executive vice president for the Jaguars this week — would not allow new head coach Doug Marrone to hire Donnie Henderson to his Jaguars staff. Henderson worked under Marrone with the Bills as the defensive backs coach, but also has a history with Coughlin. When Henderson was the defensive coordinator of the Jets in 2005, they were scrimmaging against Coughlin’s Giants and the two had a heated exchange.

Simon Says Posted October 5, 2018 Posted October 5, 2018 How can you assume he will would be here for 15 years? Allen has somethign to say about that.
Soda Popinski Posted October 5, 2018 Posted October 5, 2018 What is encouraging is the 65+ million in cap space and 10 draft picks. we have. Once you get a QB, the rest is weapons/protection/defense. Defense is almost there so we can focus on weapons/protection. I'm all for giving Allen at least 2 more years. This is a learning year, next will be too. 2020 I expect him to finally be a solid QB.

nedboy7 Posted October 5, 2018 Posted October 5, 2018 With this offense let’s hope he is here another 15 plays. 1

That team has plenty of fire power. My point really is, and I should of clarified, you can rebuild all you want, but if you dont have the right staff its for nothing. On to the Bills- until they start to string some winning seasons together after next years 91 mil in cap and 10 draft picks I will remain somewhat pessimistic. To say someone has a lack of knowledge is very short sighted without even knowing that person. You can remain as pessimistic as you'd like but the fact remains they're both in very similar situations. The Sabres have a ton of cap space coming the next two years - just like the Bills - and they also have 3 first round picks. Neither team is complete so they are at the start of the rebuild. The Sabres went through one but it was brief and the opportunity to do another one so soon is freakishly lucky - especially when they've already acquired a solid foundation of outstanding young talent. What's happening is not dependent on you believing it or having faith. Edited October 5, 2018 by White Linen

They looked no different on the ice last night than they did last year. It will be interesting to see what happens the next 8 games- 3 more at home then 5 out west. I understand where both teams are at- but if we dont have the right staff in place it wont work. I think Daboll will prove to be a bad hire- if so that means Sean has wiffed on 2 OC’s in row. I also think Housley will also prove to be a bad hire- he seems lost as a HC. In the end, we are just fans and cant change a thing. The one thing that is for certain, neither team is good right now.

If you think the Sabres are ready to compete then we're done talking. Sheary and Skinner at most cancel out Kane and O'Reilly in terms of production even if you believe (I do) they are better "fits". They will be after they spend their free agency money. You'll know much more what they are in 1-2 years and the existing young players will be ready to excel with NHL experience under their belt. Worrying about what they are now is futile - same goes with the Bills. Edited October 5, 2018 by White Linen
