    Mike Rodak tweets: Potential OC name that would make sense for Bills: Eagles QB coach John DeFilippo. His work with Carson Wentz earned him HC looks this offseason, and currently working with Andy Reid/Doug Pederson system in Philly that Sean McDermott might prefer.

    Josh Reed from WIVB tweets: Brian Daboll is a name to watch for next #Bills OC. The Alabama OC was on William & Mary coaching staff when Sean McDermott was a player there. Daboll was with Pats for several seasons, so he knows the division. Bonus, he’s a WNY native and went to St. Francis.

    Always unfortunate when someone loses a job, but -- this is encouraging news.

    I think this is entirely correct. When the team acquired all of those draft assets, I greedily thought about the team moving up to take a top QB prospect. I've come around almost 180 on that. I would not be averse to the team making a small move up into the mid-teens if a QB they really like is still there -- what would that cost? A 3rd? 2nd?

    I’ll second this. Good (great) players earn those EN opportunities. They’re not freebies; they’re correlated to strong play.

    I’ll admit to being confused.

    fair point.

    I've fairly settled into the view that FGM TM set the franchise back several years by pursuing his vision of a "heavy" team, as opposed to getting on board with where the league was actually headed: Toward speed, quickness, and getting up and down the ice. Fwiw, here's a report about and quote from Stan Bowman on the trade for Duclair: I think that there are 3 "top 6" Sabre forwards who are ill-suited to the game Bowman describes: ROR, Okposo, and Reinhart. Eichel and Kane can play that game, of course.

    Drunk or sober, I love Mighty. As does my entire family. As for the kids, I am quite sure all of them have always been sober when enjoying their preferred Mighty order. Please don't disparage Mighty. They wouldn't have as many stores as they do if they were just a drunken eats joint.

    Yessir. Gah. There it is again.

    Must can't win.

    ^ haha - um, what?

    Well, yeah. I've heard and read that many pundits have him outside round 1. Which could work to the Bills' advantage, I guess -- if the idea were to select him.

    Taking a step back. Seriously -- who would truly not want Vick 2.0 as the Bills QB?

    There's a guy locally (?) who has coached/played some at the college level (Niagara?), etc. and who Tweets commentary about NHL play. He generally includes video clips with his takes -- and his takes are coach-y in nature. It's good stuff - I wish I could find it (but I only recall seeing it (not following him) on Twitter a week or so ago). Anyway. He had a Tweet thread where he had compiled a series of defensive sequences by the Sabres (not just d-men - the Sabres playing D), and his commentary was that there was a lack of good fundamental play by the defending players. He accurately described the Sabres players as upright and stiff-legged, as they watched the opposing team develop their opportunities -- none of the Sabres were crouched, bent, etc. in order to be positioned to disrupt the play. I think that's part of what Housley is getting at with the "cheat" comment.

    Fair enough. If the Bills got a Mike Vick 2.0 ... that would be pretty fun. I think this is demonstrably false.
  18. That Aud Smell
    Such as it was. Ugh. I really don't want another accuracy-deficient QB in the fold. Edit: Looked at Cam's completion %, and am maybe reconsidering the matter. No thanks.
  19. That Aud Smell
    Fer surely. Eff those people. Launch them into the gotdamn sun. I want to tread lightly here. Maybe his ceiling is more of a Steve Young 2.0?
  20. That Aud Smell
    Oh, man. Now I'm all excited for that to happen. (It won't happen.) Yep.

    Let's put the broad brushes away. Bills Mafia was also the "group" that generated ~$400K of donations to charities associated with Dalton and Boyd. There are elements of the Bills fan base that will maintain thinly veiled hostility toward (just about) any black QB. That much is true. Fu#k those fans, though.

    I'll take the intensity, sure, but if the entire team had his hockey IQ, we might be a full blown AHL team. A bit on the nose, eh?

    From what I've seen and read, Jackson is not a running QB per se. He can run, sure. But he can stand in and deliver as well. Of all the prospects, he's the one about whom I'd be most excited. That's without knowing anything about his mentality, disposition, etc. I just really like what he can do and a lot of what he's done (the 4 INTs in his bowl game were not great, though). I can't imagine that Jackson is there when the Bills pick first -- unless they make a small move into the teens to grab him.
  24. That Aud Smell
    Good look with that. Could’ve been stronger if a reference to scrambled eggs or a bell rung had been included.
  25. That Aud Smell
    holy smokes - I'll say. (For those who don't click: Eichel is getting nearly 62% o-zone starts this season; he got 55% in his rookie season and 52% last season.)
