Maybe lit a fire? Not sure but I don’t mind! Could be! The Eagles game was disappointing but I think we’ll be fine. The defense will get back to “elite” level soon enough.

Rocket94 Posted October 31, 2019 Posted October 31, 2019 The Bills may have to make some moves eventually, and maybe they are shell shocked and just afraid to. Their actions also indicate that they trust the draft.

If he blames himself, he looks incompetent. Beane and McDermott are obviously going to play the year out with what they have. If all goes well, they can at least get a wildcard spot.

I’m just skeptical these guys ever put together a decent offensive football team.... a lot of that depends on Allen but if they don’t add some big pieces and good FAs in the offseason they’ll be looking at another mediocre football team, IMO. Per the data in another thread, Allen isn’t on pace for being the long term solution without a big day through the air to this point.
Hebert19 Posted October 31, 2019 Posted October 31, 2019 This was a man thing to say. Loved that he is happy with the squad and is willing to say they have a plan.
Mango Posted October 31, 2019 Posted October 31, 2019 (edited) 17 minutes ago, ScottLaw said: Yea. Interesting Russell Wilson is on that list... Seahawks ran a pretty conservative offense their first couple years with him. Daboll and the Bills offense is much more pass oriented and Allen barely breaks 200..... he just gets too erratic and inconsistent at points throughout games. Not sure that ever improves. I mean, technically, just about everybody is on the list. There are 130 QB’s. Haha Russ is just a head of Allen by a game (assuming JA drops 300 on the redskins) in terms of games started without going for 300. People seem to think Allen is an anomaly. He might be, but I think he has to have a big game through the air by the time we wrap up the playoffs or he’s flirting with being replaced as the starter sometime in year 3 or to start year 4. Edited: Allen’s placement compared to RW Edited October 31, 2019 by Mango
LABILLBACKER Posted October 31, 2019 Posted October 31, 2019 He's right. There were no quality young players available that wouldn't have cost us way too much. Stay the course and use all your picks in April. And do a better job on fa than you did with Star and Murphy.
SJDK Posted October 31, 2019 Posted October 31, 2019 Star is a mistake with that contract. Benjamin was a mistake as well as pretty much any of the Panthers players we brought in. We are playing money ball now as a lot of teams are. I think we have great coaches but we make some poor decisions with RBs (except Singletary) and receivers. However, with that said we are a good team but we need a piece or two on the offensive line, a piece or two on the defensive line (edge rusher too), Lorenzo’s replacement and an A+ wide receiver. Every regime selects players for their team vision. A lot of things look like mistakes when the next guys scheme doesn’t jive with the player. All things considered, I think Rex had the worst selections (all the Jets players, Percy Harvin etc..).

This team was never going to contend for a title this year, sorry if it just dawned on you last Sunday. I don’t think he is right. The overwhelming majority of fans have bought into the process. Acting like fans ran good coaches out of town is ridiculous. McD and Beane have plenty of support, they need to win a few big games before they start talking about other people’s mistake. You can’t make everyone happy but you can be professional and avoid statements like the one he made today. We did our due dilligence and nothing made sense for the direction we are headed. Simple.

I absolutely hate that quote by McDermott, since there are so many trade scenarios it didn't have to be a huge trade like AJ Green but something minor that could have helped us in the long run. There could have been several positions that could have helped, you don't have to mortgage the future but to sit on your hands and do nothing when there are clear issues that need to be addressed? I'm not a fan of it.

We have absolutely no idea what teams were asking for in compensation for a trade For instance....Corey Davis....I actually like him....what if the Titans were just asking for too much?
