If Murray takes another step in his 3rd year like Josh did, they could be a very good team. Im not saying they are the favorite, but they are a team on the rise as long as one believes in Murray, and most do, including myself, that Murray should get better in his 3rd year. I think Murray could be a good QB don't think he'll be a great one and I don't believe in there HC guy couldn't win at the College level.
Paup 1995MVP Posted March 2, 2021 Posted March 2, 2021 He will be banged up before the season starts. The guy was the leader of a defense for a team that went 4-12 and gave up a whole bunch of yards and points. Everyone says the Texans have a lousy organization. Well the players are part of that lousy organization that went 4-12 last season. So maybe Watt and Watson are not as good as a lot want to say, because they were the leaders of a 4-12 team. All I remember is Watson sitting on the bench crying with a towel over his head after he fumbled inside of the Indy 5 yard line at the end of the game. That's a hell of a leader-not. (Don't think Jimbo would have done that) 1

qwksilver Posted March 2, 2021 Posted March 2, 2021 At that figure I'm ok with not getting him. I wonder what Lawson is going to get/looking for?

The Bucs Defense was an outlier - no matter what the Bills do this offseason on Defense, they will NEVER recreate the Bucs 2020 Defense. That would literally take years and years to accomplish. So what is the point? Why even go that route? It's silly. Not to mention - NFL Defense in 2021 is a mirage - it comes and goes, not sustainable. Your defense is only as good as your last game. You can improve the DL, improve the LBs, improve the CB2....guess what? The Chiefs are still dropping 30+ against the Bills in 2021, both regular season and playoff game; all your defensive improvements are moot. So then you are right back to Square 1, exactly where you were in 2020 - needing to outscore the Chiefs, needing to score ~35 points to win. Focus on Offense over Defense. It's a much wiser investment, because Josh makes everyone on Offense better, so an offensive addition is guaranteed to make an impact. Sometimes your best defense is an unstoppable offense. The Bills just need 1 or 2 extra pieces to be unstoppable offensively - so add those few pieces and finish the deal. If you control the clock + score at will, your defense will just need to be "good enough". You know the Bills averaged more ppg than the Chiefs in 2020 right

He isn’t worth 31 million dollars that’s the ultimate factor no one was going to pay that...period 1

The thing is, there's the total $ value of the contract, and then there's the question how much of it is guaranteed and how is it structured? It wouldn't surprise me at all if Watt was offered more money as part of a longer contract, or even the same length contract but with less up front or less guaranteed.

And Josh couldn't win at the college level either...its a mute point. Just like how guys who won in college have gone on to be terrible in the pros. I will judge the HC by what he does in the NFL. Right now, hes still a question mark, I am just not going to condemn him just on his college record alone.
