Don’t see that happening .... maybe Trent Murphy but just contract expires.

Beane is doing what Botterill did.

Get players for decent fair prices and hope they over perform. See Jordan Phillips or shaq lawson.

I'm pulling this out of context but, seriously 1st JA17 and now Beane?

He went & got Diggs on offense
Wish he’d have gotten another playmaker like that for the defense, instead of just a bunch of “rotational” players

Almost $30mil in Cap used up on Murphy, Hughes & Addison.... for 10.5sacks TOTAL

He’s made some good moves
But he’s gotta address the mistakes he’s made as well

It will be interesting to see if they consider Milano as part of that core.
- buffalofan19



I think with A.J klien's play , with Milano's injury bug.
Defense stepped back.





He gone

Botterill tried a ton of times to get players for cheap.

Sheary. Colin Miller. Johansson. Simmonds and etc

Cheap / good value contracts and hope they would put produce it.

Nickel and dimed players for cheap and hoped for the best. It failed.

In the nfl. If it doesn’t work. You can cut them.

Beane has done that with the free agent entire d line. AJ Klein. Josh Norman. Jordan Phillips (waiver claim)

Kelvin Benjamin when we traded for his fat lard.


I said josh Allen was a franchise QB after the win against the niners. He learned how to red zone defense. Which he couldn’t do weeks 1-6

There is no way you can rely on AJ Klein for a full season. If that's the plan to replace him, it's a mistake.

From what I’ve heard is the bills have lowballed him contract wise due to not staying healthy all year.

I think he’s gone

No it has to be games. Milano got an extra week because of that. Seems like they timed both with the bye to maximize recovery time and give them another week

Source confirms that the NHL is planning the private purchase of a COVID vaccine for all constituents involved in the potential upcoming season.

Ok sorry. You now will receive credit when josh allen plays well.

Josh was showing signs of being very good in weeks 1-6.
YOU DIDN'T WANT TO HEAR IT

What defense was josh reading wrong in week 2?
415 yards passing and 4tds

Week 3
315 and another 4 scores.


It's ok to be wrong. You were wrong and continue to be wrong. But, since week 7 .......

I think Milano gets a contract, won't be as big, or a 1 year prove you can stay healthy deal.

He didn't.
I seem to remember that teams were playing more Man coverage in weeks 1-4 against the Bills, then they switched to, or the teams the Bill's played employed Zone coverages.

I think that is what he meant...Allen did struggle far more against the Zone earlier this season...then figured if out.

Reading the comments is like being on HB.

So, IF the supply of the vaccine exceeds the contracted dosages purchased within a period of time, are they really taking them from others?

I.e., if they can produce 70m per month, and have contracts for 69m, would say 6,000 dosages purchased by the NHL be viewed positively of negatively?

It's an opinion....

Milano is going to be paid big bucks.
His replacement was AFC defensive player of the week
Milano does miss games from injury

Defense wasnt exactly great early with him playing, and we are going to have to pay JA17 way more. Way way more than expected. Mvp type season $$$

Tremaine Edmunds will need to be paid soon too

I'm really not sure what he meant either?
Tooph9 has been dogging JA17 for 2 years.

Seriously, he's 1 td behind the Bill's single season of 34 tds. But still female dogin'

If he's not reading zone d in a couple games, where he puts up 8 tds in 2 games. Does it really matter.

Crazy talk

He didnt rush for a ton of yards in those 4 tds games too.
Who cares?


Kinda like cutting Bass after a slow start - 🤔

Still hiding under the couch when he kicks?

Allen torched man defense for the first few games and did amazing

Then the titans played zone. The chiefs jets patriots all followed suit and he struggled.

The niners game he torched zone defense and showed how much he learned and developed.

Allen can do it all

I wonder if Milano takes a team friendly 2 year deal with an option for a big jump in year 3 due to his injuries.

It all depends on if he wants to stay here and win, or chase the money

Hard to imagine they wouldn't be. Kruger is just playing the line that they're happy with their guys in case that's what he ends up with. All reports have suggested we're calling around about goalies.
- RhinoFan


With all the free agent goalies that were available and all the assumed goalies available for trade it just may be either the phone isn’t working or they really are happy with the goalies they have.
Give Adams a call and if he answers you will know which of the above is correct

Good thought

Funny to say but, if there was a nfl team and place to be, its Buffalo. Football wize , energy and star qb.

His agent would be pushing straight $ and potential injuries. Especially the nfl.

I really believe our defense makes the linebackers super important. Especially without star.
