It'll make them more competitive for 2nd place in the division and for a wild card spot. Unless Buffalo's roster falls apart in the offseason, they are the heavy favorite to win the East. I think Carr could move the Jets past the Dolphins and Patriots because their defense is also really solid. If Tua's healthy then I like their offense over the Jets offense. Carr is better than Mac but below Tua and all of them are way below Allen.
He's a good player, and Saleh's a little underrated as a head coach. They're actually quietly a good team with some serious talent on both sides of the ball, so if they figure things out at quarterback, they'll definitely muddy things even further within the division.
Garrett Wilson was pretty good at WR last year and Breece Hall was ridiculously good at RB before getting hurt. Their OL is good. Defense is obviously very strong. If they got a solid QB then they'd be a good team but I think their weakness continues to be poor team culture.
I expect a dogfight in the AFCE this season and could see any team ending up on top or on bottom. Buffalo is weird because they should be clearly dominant, but they find ways to lose games.
Mr. Clean junior needs to add Myles of space to his lineup, eh Captain?
Carr is better than Mac but not as good as Tua…. maybe in 2022, but we’ve already determined your QB rankings are on a sliding scale and ever changing based on team results.
Buffalo is going to get a "choker" complex soon, if it hasn't already developed... not buying the "competitor" spirit bs they tried to pawn off as an explanation for Stef Diggs behavior during and after that game...
I came up with a new ranking system for 2023... check it out in the QB thread!
Agreed BOB should improve the situation. "Great offseason" is overstating it but we don't need to rehash prior details.
I think they should have an open competition in camp. At this moment I like Zappe better. He looked way better than I thought he would. Your take was still too strong but you had a closer assessment of Zappe than I. So far anyway. I'd like to see him get a shot as the QB1.
Right now I envision Mac's ceiling to be Carr. Tua in that Miami offense looked very good most of last season. The concussions almost certainly will derail his career however.
way too low for Mac. Not a huge fan of Mac's, and wouldn't have been disappointed if Zappe replaced him last year, but he's got the ability to be better than Carr.
Diggs is a great WR but a definite headcase. I'm a huge believer in Allen and generally that team. Allen has to clean up his turnovers but he's the best dual threat QB in the NFL. However Buffalo fans should be concerned with how their defensive play deteriorated over the course of the season. Certainly injuries were part of it but there was very noticeable decline there. I think McDermont should be capable of fixing it though.
Carr's got a 91.8 passer rating and averages 248 yards per game. Mac is a 89.0 passer rating and 219 yards per game. Carr also has a better TD% and lower INT%. Mac still has a ways to go before he's even at Carr's level. We'll see. BOB should help.
Probably so but they only lost 3 games by margins of 2, 3 & 3 points.
I get what you're saying. But I'm looking at Carr's entire career. Last season was by far his worst since his rookie year. Maybe McDaniels just really sucks? He's got a really bad track record outside of NE (and more specifically with any QB not named Brady). The Raiders had some injuries too (Renfrow and Waller). The Carr-Adams connection was not a problem. I'm sure Adams is pissed right now... not having a QB.
