Watson is definitely better than his record. He's ranked 12th.

Both Jets QBs are outside the top 30. So, they do suck, even outside of their head coach's ineptitude.

Ok, I get it now.

Whatever chart you are looking at in regards to nfl qbs, is the bible. Any other comparisons do not count. So we have some formulas to figure out:

12th is not top even top 10 let alone top 5?

12 place x .75 canadian exchange rate, moves him to 9th.

9th ÷ 110 yards yard field = 8.08 ranked qb?

Still not top 5

Nobody wants Hutton, including us.

I'm just saying if the goal is to win, as of right now, goalie seems to be the weak spot.

Based on past performance, I don't know how anyone in mgmt can be comfortable with that position in a year they're going for it.

I don't totally disagree, but Ullmark was pretty decent 5v5 last season. With an improved PK, as we all hope, perhaps he's a much better goalie.

Bills dont have the cap space for a move like Ertz.

They need someone on a rookie deal.

Kahun .5 PPG for his career
Girgensons .27 PPG for his career.

One of those guys is underpaid, one is overpaid.

It's not the bible. It's a metric that tells you how useful your quarterback is at creating offense.

Maybe Everett or higbee from the rams?

Jimmy Graham is losing with Chicago, probably our turn to sign him soon?

Engram from the giants would be my target.
Bad team, disappointing career there

Realistically the Seahawks game is going to be a loss. Coaches would never think this way, but im sitting everyone who is dinged up (like Milano) and giving them a bye week. Come back healthy

I will gladly be wrong on that. That would be OUTSTANDING.

I'm just sick of relying on young guys to handle positions. We have been doing that for 9 years now.

Cutting Murphy at this juncture is virtually useless. The time to cut him was over the summer.

Only 1M in savings now. Before it was like 8.

I apologize taco, I'm having a tough time with reading comprehension this morning. 3 times in 3 pages.

The eye test, winning, bringing teams from behind to win.
Making the "throw" when needed.

Alot of the other stats are team stats.
How many dropped tds has josh had?

Kroft tripped over himself, gabe davis dropped a td yesterday, right in his hands

Not sure what the cap rams are for next season. I think if you release him now, you save 1M, but are on the hook next season for 8M. Yeesh.

regardless its his last season here.

Also according to OTC if the cap has a small step back the Bills has negative cap space, so thats fun.

EDIT NVM thats the floor for next year. OTC has it wrong

Guessing again, repeating the same as fact, then moving on........ 🛎🛎🛎

How's the tyler Bass phobia? Looking better by the game?

- Boss34


Bass looked good with 4 Xtra Pt chip shots within 30 yards.
It's his accuracy from 31+ yards that is the issue.
And let's be clear...
I want the young kid to succeed and have a solid kicker on-board for the next 5 - 10 years...
To do so however, he needs to I prove his accuracy from 31 - 50 yards. (31 - 40 especially)

Btw, he is like 25th or lower in the league by FG%.

He could always Tim Thomas, and goalies are typically the slowest to develop. Markstrom, Lehner, Bishop, Kuemper, Dubnyk, Greiss were all guys who took a while to become effective. I think he can be a good enough goalie to get these guys to the playoffs, but the team in front of him clearly needs to be more effective. Either be lockdown D like the Islanders, or be a mixed bag who can score more than 2.5 goals per game. And no one's as good as Barry Trotz, so, we signed Hall.

They love him. I don't see Miami throwing away any building blocks.

I'd love him, though.
