What does that mean? I mean all you really have to do is look at the difference between what he said and what Diggs said yesterday. But being better than The Washington Football Team isn't a very high bar to clear.
SCBills Posted August 6, 2020 Posted August 6, 2020 Hands down, best interview of the week. I'm hoping more than ever that he finds himself again in our system because i'm here for his comeback.

At least not in the tweets that were quoted here.

I remember at the inception, the term "McBean" was thrown around in a snarky and somewhat derogatory way. I certainly don't hear it as much now, and when I do it as a positive connotation.

I will say any team is a huge improvement after the Washington R words. What a joke franchise. I will say Norman needs to look in the mirror more and realize that he would have enjoyed if more if he played better. that said, it’s a great low risk, high upside pick up. Let’s see how Allen turns out first. Though I think McDermott is a lock to keep his job no matter what. Anybody can miss on a QB in the draft so even if Allen isn’t The Guy (and I am optimistic that he will be), I’d extend Beane too based on the overall body of work. Look, we sure seem to be trending in the right direction, I want to keep that rolling! 4

He has appeared as a special guest on the british tv coverage of the Superbowl the last few years. He is a special guy, no doubt. Unique is the word. Hopefully he will be unavailable for pundit duty when the next Superbowl rolls around....
machine gun kelly Posted August 7, 2020 Posted August 7, 2020 I’m hopeful Norman comes back to even 85% of what he was in Carolina. He’ll be used right, he knows the scheme, and McD was able to get the most out of him before. It was nice reading his comments, and I’m bettering the Pegulas do extend Beane and McD, but maybe are just waiting until the end of 2020. They are both under contract until the end of 2021, and if we weren’t in the pandemic probably would have been extended now. Like the rest of the world, the Pegulas as going to take a hit with this pandemic for all of their businesses which is probably the only reason they are waiting one last year before they extend them. I don’t see the Pegulas ever letting this tandem go as they have done too much for this team.

Seoulofstone Posted August 7, 2020 Posted August 7, 2020 I'd love to reread the thread where he was hired. Has it been archived? I tried the search facility but no dice.

GreggTX Posted August 7, 2020 Posted August 7, 2020 I know it's highly unlikely, but if this guy returns to all-pro form, our D could be elite. I would advise caution on betting the farm on the DT's, though. The backups are backups for a reason and Oliver & Phillips are still unproven. I really hope those two and Epenesa turn out great.

I think McDermott has proven himself as a coach if not a game manager. Beane is still counting on his top picks to emerge. Allen has a long way to go. Edmunds is overrated and Ford still looks lost. Much of our success as well as Beane's reputation depends on those 3 guys.

You do start to hear more and more of that from players. Beasley also talked the new perception of the Bills when he came here. I think more and more players are going to sign with Buffalo as years go on because it really does seem that player perception of the organization has shifted. Actually he doesn't need to talk at all. All most Bills fans want him to do is play the game with skill and effort. His mouth has always been bigger than his game. He has 2 strikes on him now and his mouth cannot save him. He hasn't made this team better yet, frankly he has not made the starting team yet. Josh N should STFU and play ball.
