Rico Posted July 23, 2023 Share Posted July 23, 2023 If you don’t want to watch the yearbook, check out the KC replay, it’s been showing this weekend too. Can’t wait to see healthy Josh and Miller after seeing that again, wow. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chandler#81 Posted July 25, 2023 Share Posted July 25, 2023 It’s good, but could have been much better. Too little focus on the multitude of challenges faced, too much time spent on players no longer on the team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eball Posted July 25, 2023 Share Posted July 25, 2023 I must just view the world differently than a lot of people. Last season was full of wonderful moments: opening night blowout at LA, trashing the Oilers in the home opener, beating KC (again) on the road to name a few. The two kickoff return TDs in the Pats*** game…what was better than that? The season ended poorly and the team faced unprecedented challenges, but it was a hell of a season. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The old ones had much more heart and soul to them, the new ones feel like the same old cookie cutter stories year after year. Watch this when you get a chance and then come back and tell me the production of these aren't that much different 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billsfan89 Posted July 29, 2023 Share Posted July 29, 2023 The season was a wild ride. On the positive side 13-3 with a division title and a playoff win. But the season was hellish on the team from many perspectives ending with a blowout playoff loss that exposed a mentally exhausted team with some flaws. It was a wild season of ups and downs, but hopefully, this team can finally get over the hump in 2023 learning from the past roster construction and getting some luck.

There was a lack of energy for most of the season that culminated in the Bengals playoff loss. This. Just a very strange year. The injuries were massive, positional groups one by one became decimated and everything on offense looked so much harder than KC or CIN, despite similar regular season results. Losing an All-Pro Safety and All-Pro Defensive End for the year was hard enough to overcome, let alone the few days where we worried Allen was out for the season. I was at the Rams game, and many of us left that game (foolishly) wondering if this team could go undefeated. As the season went on, injuries piled up, and the offense became big play or bust, I think many of started wondering, not if, but when, the season would go off the rails. Id say we all are too hard on our team, and I think for some of us that’s true.. but sentiment shifted in the media as well… Slowly but surely, KC & CIN passed us in the eyes of the media (along with nonsense hot takes about the Fins), and we all wanted to fight it but most of us knew, deep down, this team didn’t have it. Ever since the bye… the team just seemed lost. And everyone could tell. We just denied it until it came crumbling down in the Divisional Round. Waiting for them to hit the gas, but they were clearly running on empty after MNF in CIN. Edited July 29, 2023 by SCBills 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have any memories of back-to-back 2-14 seasons in 84 & 85? Personally, I liked winning 13 regular season and 1 post-season game. Yes we didn't get to the Super Bowl, but I choose to remember the year fondly. And before you nitpick, I was in attendance for the post-season debacle vs the Bengals. They sucked I agree with you I don't like the ending to last year but I'm thinking they learned a lot about themselves and they were dealt a bad hand but I'm expecting we got a rare outlier in Kincaid. He will be a frontrunner from the get go for ORoY. The fact that he just clicks with Josh and Dawson -- I expect them to dress up as the 3 amigos if there is a ssbres game on Halloween this year. It's just so nice to have some size with talent as receiving positions, wr and te. Keeping our opponents looking for help to withstand the bombardment they will face. I just don't even believe we have seen Josh such his ceiling yet think there's still a lot he's gonna show fans. While Diggs doesn't think he could call a game to save his life as a receiver his focus wasn't on strategy in that sense. Josh as a QB has always had that as part of the process of learning to be the QB. One reason he flourished with Daboll is they were able to relate on those types of details. I think he has that communication with Dorsey though last year itwas hard to add new wrinkles on top of dealing with the limitations on some short throws due to injury. Was this the first year Allen went to throw at TE University? What better reps can you get working on 12 personnel concepts San smack dab in the company of the best tes playing in the game today that want to raise the skills of promising and coachable young players who want to learn from them.
