row_33 Posted January 30, 2019 Posted January 30, 2019 get an egoless and talented QB get him to the line with 20 on the shotclock allow him to audible or kill a play based on his read of the D and get the ball in the air in half a second take those 7 easy yards on 1st and 10 nobody else cares to bother with this? 1
All_Pro_Bills Posted January 30, 2019 Posted January 30, 2019 Exploiting the compensatory pick rules is worth mentioning along with drafting well and successfully navigating free agency plus getting good players in trades for what has been peanuts. Year after year the Patriots seem to get multiple compensatory picks for losing players to free agency. Teams like the Bills seem to get none. I thought of this when the Bills waived Benjamin prior to season's end. Waiving him sent a message but simply deactivating him on game day and swallowing a couple game checks would have resulted in his contract expiring and the loss of a 1st round type player against the compensation system. Now the Bills get no credit under the system.

As a fan of the Leafs and Jays and Raptors I have watched stars in their prime flicker off to contenders for absolutely nothing in return for most of the last 4 decades.

formerlyofCtown Posted January 30, 2019 Posted January 30, 2019 But but this type of offence wont work Ive heard it here many times.
Boca BIlls Posted January 30, 2019 Posted January 30, 2019 BELICHICK doesn't make many good draft picks so I dont mind this.

You obviously know nothing about throwing. Jeff Goerge a great QB and you want to talk anout hype. Youre stuck on hype from how many years ago LMAO. What a joke.

Bad organizations do dumb things out of desperation. Good organizations do smart things based on opportunity. It's really that simple. 1
IgotBILLStopay Posted January 30, 2019 Posted January 30, 2019 nice article. no doubt Belichik has been the ultimate contrarian. that said having a hall of fame QB who can get you a 5-7 yards on demand will always make you look good. I dont think we will ever have an answer to the Was it Brady? or Was it Belichik? debate.
