Bills trading Diggs to the Texans @BuckFly
On 4/3/2024 at 1:12 PM, Biggie said:Diggs is a cancer.
Diggs on the field was so much about winning and it is what I love about him. I was always a Forever Diggs guy because of it.
However, you knew it had to be untenable with them willing to eat so much cap.
Also, and most importantly, during the last nine games under the new coordinator which includes the two playoff games he had 44 receptions, with a 55 catch %, for 388 yards, at 8.81 yards per reception, and 1 TD.
...and during those 9 games the team went 7-2, including a huuuugggge drop by Diggs late in the playoff game against KC.
Knowing that the Bills were looking for another #1WR (1A, 1 B if he stayed) in this draft does anyone here think Diggs was going to play nice with a new wideout taking some of his receptions and ten years his younger?
Early in March the Bills were $52 million over the cap for 2024. As of today they are $45 million under the cap for 2025, $53 million if Von goes after 2025 and they've gotten younger everywhere.
Do I love everything? No, but sometimes you have to pull the band aid off quickly.
I have no allusions about division titles and we will see. I would consider 10-7 a good season, but the real focus is what I believe to be the last half of Allen's prime years, which I believe he is halfway through them now at 6 years.
That said it is a good pick up for Houston and they are likely to get the best out of him (that is possible) because A) new location, and B) now apparently a 1 year deal so he will be motivated.

Why Taylor Swift fans and cat lovers are rallying behind bullied Bills kicker

Some fans are proving to be the cat's meow with their generosity.I like cats. I like Bass.
Anything else?

Difference is Norwood's kick would have won the game. Bass' kick would have just allowed for KC to get a FG or TD in the last 20 seconds or so in dramatic, but not unexpected, fashion.

It's already been decided, the script got leaked
Yeah, saw that the other day.
It would make things easier if they would just assign the two teams.

You think they’ll fire the coach?
No, he did a good job for most of the year with a patch work D and the O let them down in the middle of the season until the OC change. Diggs has finally turned the corner on his age ad for most of the year there was nobody else on the other side, or really covering in the slot the way Beasley did earlier in the decade. Anybody around the League want to pay Gabe Davis 10-15 million dollars a year as a #2 for his 40-48 receptions a season, be my guest. I like him, but he is not, and has never been, a #2.
Biggie, in this 5 year run they have never...never been the best team in the AFC. Is that McD or is that the circumstances of everything? I think it is everything.
I never liked the Von signing. Why? Age and the potential for injury.
What happened? Age and injury.They are good at drafting some talent, but there have been blunders.
Cody Ford over DK Metcalf?
BTW, I am not sure even Brady is staying. I am not sure he is the answer although he is a good coach. He is interviewing for your Falcons job for the second time in 3 years. If you guys don't sign BB I don't think he is a bad choice. I think the Dirty Birds job is an attractive one. Good young talent in important positions, a number of draft picks. Get a QB and a good offensive mind and they could go on a run.
If the Ravens and the Niners end up in the Super Bowl how in the world can any balk at that? They are simply the best two teams in the League.
Man, they are both put together so well, especially the Ravens.

@BuckFly you had one job
Biggie, this team wasn't going anywhere and they certainly weren't situated to defeat the defending Champs, even at home. That is (and should) be Baltimore's job.
They had 8 or 9 guys out on Defense and a limp receiver group since day 1.
It was a small miracle they won the division.
If Bass ties that game I still don't think the Bills walk out of there with a win, whether it be regulation or overtime.
They will piss away the talent they have under center and he will leave (as he should) after '28 because of it.

I think of it less of not enough good QBs and more owners/GMs are fine with having bad QBs. It just happens to be worse this season because so many starting QBs got injured and a lot of the backups aren't good in addition to the starters being bad.
I keep coming back to the Jets but they knew Zach Wilson was bad. He got 2 years and then they decided to bring in Rodgers. When Rodgers got hurt they should have been looking anywhere they could to find a QB. But for some reason they went with Wilson. But like I said if Rodgers was replacing him they know Wilson isn't good. Then they brought in Trevor's Semen and bruh, he sucks too. (remember this is the team that turned down Kaepernick) so like I said a lot of teams are fine with riding with bad QBs instead of finding new talent.
There are numerous college QBs out there that don't get drafted. It should be easy enough to give someone new a shot, if he sucks well you don't really lose anything because you already have a bad QB and if he turns out good then that's a plus for you.
Some teams don't know how to utilize the talent or don't give the QB any talent at all. This season has come down to CJ Stroud vs Bryce Young and Stroud has been dominating and he arguably doesn't have a lot of playmakers but he's talented enough to make it work, while Young has a husk of Adam Thielen and no run game.
The league would be much more exciting if more QBs were given a chance instead of them sticking with mediocre stuff all season.
For me I'd like to see Tyree Jackson out there. Guy was a stud in college but never given a shot, he's always been on teams with good QBs and in the XFL one year. Put him out there! (He's on the Giants now)
I watched a number of Tyree games in person at UB. Man, he was a specimen. He should have never come out early.

Someone on GMFB suggested they should trade for Justin Fields.
How would you feel about that Biggie?

Have you seen their "performance" in their last few games?!?!
I saw that besides their hiccup against the Titans 5 of their 6 losses have come against teams with 11 or more wins. I also saw that they lost last night to the three time (now four time) defending AFC East Champions and against a QB that has been witchcraft to them since he came in to the league (11-2), and who also coincidentally has scored more TDs at this point in his career than any player in NFL history and is the first player in league history to score at least 40 TDs in 4 straight seasons, with a coach who has now made it to the playoffs for the 6th time in 7 years.
And they also lost last week to the best team in football in the Ravens.
As well they are dinged as bad as any team right now.
Far be it from me as a Bills fan to come to the defense of the Dolphins, but 9 days removed from potentially getting home field advantage in the AFC is not the resume of a team who should dismissively be put in the "why bother" box.

A playoff team scored 9 points to clinch their ticket -- over a 2 win team. What a joke.
I'm old enough to remember watching the Bucs lose 9-0 in the NFC Championship game for the 1979 season against the Rams.
and credit to the Bucs going 6-3 down the stretch.

Hopefully it doesn't come down to a 2 point conversion trick play to win the game.
"I'm reporting eligible to you. Please nod to let me know you heard me? K, now please tell me what number I am? Thank you."
Ridiculous it has to come to this.

Please which one of you had at the start of the season, “I’m so envious of the Cleveland Browns, and their starting QB, Joe Flacco,” in your odds betting pool?
I’m sitting here in WNY and I’d give my left nut for the passing game and receiving pieces they have, right now.
…and that’s just one of the things of theirs I want.

Ravens with non stop scoring
Ravens are so good.
Next in the conference is Cleveland.
Everybody else is just everybody else.
Doesn’t mean that other teams can’t do something on any given whatever-whatever.
But it is not hard to find the cream and the most wart free clubs.

Respectfully, you misspelled “Mahomes.”
I love him. I really like him as a person other than the whining a couple of weeks ago, but nothing seems to stick to him when it’s his fault.
Yeah, it’s rarely his fault, but still when it is…

First Bills road win against the Chargers in 42 years. -

it's the chargers, they hire throwaway coaches because the owner is cheap. It sucks being a chargers player playing for a team that has no fanbase anymore.
In any case, Chargers always seem to have a game like that so I'm not too surprised when it happens.
Overall, fuck em. I won't shed a tear.
Staley's mom says "hi."

Chargers fire coach Brandon Staley and GM Tom Telesco - ESPN
WWW.ESPN.COM
The Los Angeles Chargers have fired coach Brandon Staley and general manager Tom Telesco amid their disappointing 5-9 season, the team announced Friday.It must suck being a Charger player, knowing you gave it your all and you left everything you had on the field last night and it STILL just wasn't enough to save your coach's (and GM's) job.
Oh well.
...or still wasn't enough to give up the highest one team score in NFL history because the other team remembered that they, too, once had a defenseless puppy and they didn't want to be cruel.

2 defensive touchdowns in less than 30 seconds.
I’ve never seen an nfl game in my entire life where the winning team almost got embarrassed to keep scoring.
Like they were committing murder in broad day light…and on tv.
It’s like the raiders, who could have easily run up 80, looked around and said, “everybody are you kidding us? NOBODY is going to come in here and stop this.?!”
or even looked across the field and said, “chargers…please try? Please?!”

NFL Offseason Thread

You could be right, but it is also his first year there and his M.O. is to behave. They might not feed him the rock as much as he wants but they should be good and he should help them so that will bring him a modicum of decorum.
Keyser, I think there is a chance the big three might be gone in the top 10 in this draft, with Thomas Jr. shortly thereafter.
It’s just too pricey to get up that high. Anyone should be happy to get any of those guys. I’m not sure the Bills 24 and 25 (1)along with their 24 and 25 (2) gets them in the top 10, although knowing the true value of those picks is not in my wheelhouse.
I love Jr., but if he is gone the others around WNY like AD Mitchell and I believe the Bills may have met with him the most. I like him, but they need a 1…a solid and true 1. I think that is Thomas Jr. or the top three, which obviously includes Harrison.
