You said Hughes isn’t good.

That’s wrong. Period.

Literally 0 professional analysts who get paid to analyze the Bills would agree with you.

0 people who do advanced stats in football would agree with you

Hughes is widely considered a very good player

Cool, i disagree
Why do u take such offense to that?

Has nothing to do with Botterill and all to do with Ron Francis.

You mean the other guy who signed Jeff Skinner to a bloated contract in Carolina?

Yeah, he will be wearing a Seattle jersey this time next year.

Well watch for March and when the new year kicks in and the Cap number is released, most of those guys won't be here.

Good! They were wastes of Cap Space
I hope Beane/McDermott have learned from that dumba$$ mistake

We need more “difference makers” and less “rotational players”

"The Bills need more time of possession on offense"

Averaged 30+ minutes TOP on offense the past 2 years

I don’t take offense

You’re just so odd. In fact I bet before today you didn’t have such a staunch opinion on Hughes

But because Jcrag gave you slight pushback on the D line point, you had to go 800 mph defending it, and I knew as soon as I made a point on Hughes actually being pretty good, you’d go even harder

Right, and both games against the Chiefs they were out possessed.

If you want to beat Mahomes, hold the ball on offence for 35+ minutes at the bare minimum.

The Islanders lost their 5th in a row last night. We should be everything they need to cure their ills.

If they start a rookie goalie ..... it’s an automatic win for the islanders

Skinner wants and should be in the top 6, he will waive to go to Seattle to get away from Krueger. Ron Francis will be a focal point along with top 6 minutes.

Kruger is a nightmare

Skinner will score 30 goals for Seattle next year and make the playoffs as an expansion team while we search for a new coach in 2022

That what they want except for the new coach thing, they want Hall back and for some stupid reason, Krueger has Pegula's ear on everything.

Well your bet would be 100% wrong
Having a DE1 who doesn’t sack the QB all that much is very underwhelming imo
I think sacks matter
AGAIN, they aren’t the “end all be all”
But they do matter imo

Has it been 7years since we’ve had a legit pass rusher?
I can’t think of a guy who been in the double digits in recent years
And i do believe it’s a major flaw in our defense

Bc simply “putting pressure” on a guy like Mahomes often isn’t enough
This was proven when he tore us to shreads last weekend
Maybe sacking him more won’t be enough either,
but setting them back more wouldn’t hurt

Again, I’m ANTI-trump
And he’s the one involved with Russia
Maybe he can flee there so he doesn’t go to jail?

I’ll let you have the last word on this bs politics crap that you brought up
