Quick season retrospective

[Don Otreply]

Started off; taking a step back, will finish third in the AFCE, finished with fifth consecutive division title, making it to the AFCC game, going into the off season with ten, (10) draft picks and some cap space, 

 

I’m back, we have as good a chance at success as any team in the league!

 

GO BILLS!!!

Wasnt quite as dire but did not forsee AFCCG I also think the future is bright if we do the right things...

Given the season they just had and still a lot of areas that need and should see improvement in this offseason I believe the team’s prospects for 2025 are quite bright. See no reason why we can’t expect another trip to the AFCCG and hopefully this time the football gods shine on us for a change.

Gotta go all out for that #1 seed and home field throughout the playoffs. Set the tone early and take no prisoners.

GO BILLS!

With the amount of draft capital we'll have next season and opening up a bit more cap space, i'm feeling confident that we're going to put together another team that can compete, however, keep in mind that other teams in the AFC that only have a few more puzzle pieces are coming in hot themselves.

Our chief  competitors are in divisions that will get more competitive, so hopefully, that will work to our advantage to get #1 seed.  We averaged 30 ppg with some dinged up skilled players, so next year we should be able to do better.  Improving the D has to happen.

Like kicking the FG for the tie in Houston (saving time outs), taking a breather and having a 50/50 shot to win in overtime. Chances are we win that game.

Or...kicking the FG in LA, taking the one point lead and trying to get a stop(after running down the clock and with TOs).

 

Getting stuffed on 3rd then hurrying to run the same damn play again and not having the awareness of ...well anything imo was stupid. We had the opportunity to have the one seed, play one less game and have KC at home.

 

Ever since 13 seconds, these gaffes seem to keep occurring. While I'm grateful for the season's successes, hopefully next year we go all the way.

That's my quick season perspective.

 Well, we agree that hopefully we can go all the way next year..  I am not sure where you are going with the FG in Houston, I would add the use of playcalling and Time Outs in the Rams game.. and of course the KC game.. I think what I am saying if we do the right things in both player personnel and game planning our future is bright...  will that happen... remains to be seen..

We have 2 young coordinators who no doubt had learned a lot this year.

I see improvements with both of them going forward.

 

Get a WR, fix the D and get back to the AFCCG.

We are now negative 10+ mill after incentives kicked in.

It went from -$2M to -$10M when the reserve guys were signed, and it moved the total players above the Top 51.

The NLTBE incentives come when the adjustments are calculated, which comes next month.
