The Bills Clear House To Save Cap Space, Are They Still A Championship Team? | Pat McAfee Reacts 

poyer got a tan.

Von Miller was a reach at the time for that kinda money and now it’s obvious that was a terrible signing!!!

Von Miller is a waste of money now

The Bills finally took their emotions out of the equation, and made the right decisions. I’m thankful for their time in Buffalo. They still have 17!

Josh Allen is the only reason the Bills have been relevant the last few years. Along with solid defense. I don’t think letting a 30+ year old safety go hurts. As long as Allen is under center, they will be fine. They’d be smart to give him another #1 type receiver

As a Bills fan, I appreciate the work and the passion with which these men played the game, first-rate, top-notch, tough-as-nails players who richly deserved to retire from their chosen team with big money and fanfare (in a perfect world) But the reality is you can't go into any new season with a pat hand, shaking things up is a necessity, and cap space is needed. I hope these guys retire, before they get any more injuries, concussions especially. (Mitch) Going to be fun to see what Brandon Beane does with all those picks and cap space. I'm excited.

The funny thing is I literally never hear this window stuff about other teams that can’t win. How about the ravens? They’re probably not going to the Super Bowl either, but there’s no talk of any window for them

crazy the fanduel igloo is literally a 45 second walk from my house, see this man driving his motorcycle shirtless all the time in the summer, W mans W pat W show GO BILLS

All them players had they chance to win a super bowl. Time to move on to the next level. It's a business. GO BILLS 🏈🏈🏈🏈

Von Miller wants to be a general manager in the NFL 😂😂😂😂 bro stop that

Von miller on the bills has been absolute ass lmao

How can a team that hasn’t been to a super bowl be a championship team?

31 other teams and their fans wish the Bills Super Bowl window was closed.

Von is a great leader and teacher, that's why they kept him. Obviously he's not the same as he was but he still loves football.

It is amazing teams are getting 30 million more to the payroll this year and the amount of teams over it even with the additional 30 million are finding out the teams GM'S can't balance a check book

I’d take a pay cut too if I had 3 tackles. - Von Miller

Can we see a future championship now that a daring gamble to sign Mitch Trubisky is real?

To answer the question in the video title, they were never a championship team as evidenced by them not winning any championships.

What a nice guy Von Miller is for taking a pay cut after little to no production last year and still making more than other teams would be offering him at his age and with the injury history. THANK YOU Von for your sacrifice

Oh right, Miami, NY and NE have improved dramatically. Bills are still, once again, easily the best team in the East.

Pat Mahomes sent a lot of guys to early retirement in Buffalo lol

Trade knox too while your at it if you have kincaid

White poyer and hines have been hurt to much

"As long as we have 17 we could win" but you haven't won.

Sal looks like Jon Anik’s older brother 😂

Imagine all of that just to sign Mitchell Trubusky 😂

These are all necessary good moves

This is what happens when 1 player is soaking up 1/4 of your teams salary.

0:43 nah I know yall heard it too

Poyer can go to the Raiders and help Maxx Crosby the 2024 DPOY

Lot of haters out there. These are smart moves. They’ll restructure Josh’s contract and have money to sign some younger defensive players.they’ll draft some solid talent at receiver.

Ouch!!

welcome to the NFL.

This is what happens when you give QB’s massive contracts. It is now their responsibility to make up for whatever deficiencies there may be on a team. It is exactly why Mahomes is so damn good. Won another championship with a relatively unknown receiving corps while being the highest paid player in the league.

Can you do a segment about whether or if you think the NFL divisions and playoffs could change. I think it could be changed to this. 4 divisions of 8 teams. Play each team in your division 1 time = 7 games Then if you finished in top 4 from previous year you play the top 4 from the other 3 divisions. Same if you finish in bottom 4 you play the bottom 4 from each division = 12 games 19 games in the regular season For the playoffs, get rid of the AFC NFC split. Division winners are seeded, then you could have it drawn out a hat for the games or winning percentage, whatever you want. 16 teams in a knockout format 8 winners progress to Quarter finals 4 winners progress to Semi final 2 winners progress to Superbowl

Yeah because the defensive secondary was really making the key defensive stops needed to get to the superbowl, right?

Hope they would be open to bringing poyer back on a min. Deal if he can’t find any team that wants to pay, old but still think he can play another year or help teach a young safety of the bills draft one. Didn’t get what he wanted last year and signed back with the bills so there may be a chance. But doubt it

I think the window has closed for the Bills. Besides the Chiefs the AFC is stacked right now with up and coming teams.

Love Sal.due always gives the facts

Did he say they released Bruce Smith, Andre Reed and Thurman Thomas on the same day? ...damn.... I never realized that happened.

Im really gonna miss Po, it will be wrird to not c him in the backfield next year, i have nothing but respect and appreciation for all the strength and leadership poyer brought to the defense, thank you for all ur hard work n good luck in ur future endeavors

I mean Von can make a lot more if he hits the goals but deff not going to be easy. Got a feeling he is feeling good after the slow season he just went through and is hoping he can steam roll this season to make the $$

You don’t get it in the 3 year window and you have to minor restructure. This will be a real test for the GM.

Probably Von's best play since joining the Bills.

Welcome to the Patriots and lets give that Chip a good polishing.

I think everybody in this town.That looks like sal is sal but maybe it's just sal every time

The only move that didn't make sense was getting rid of poyer instead of Miller, poyer was a true leader n heart n soul of this defense....I hope beane doesn't end up regretting that 1

Another victim of the Mahomes effect…

Allen = Wagon

Harrison Smith took a pay cut last year to stay with the Vikings, give him his recognition too

Closed window!!

Now that he's with ESPN, I hope Pat doesn't sell out and become a pure performance artist like so many of these so-called NFL "analysts," who know nothing about any single team but repeat talking points with fervor.

Buffalo Bills, “Heck it.”

When they signed Miller I knew that was a friggin stupid move. Reminded me of the Redskins signing Bruce Smith. As a Bills fan they jettisoned their entire defensive leadership and will pay dearly next year. I wish they’d get rid of that idiot Diggs. He’s Antonio Brown Jr. and would save them more $ and at least bring back some assets.

I’m confused, why did they keep Von? Is he worth 8 mil?

White is a top corner when healthy

That's what happens when you pay Allen all that money. Need to get some cheaper draft picks.

My panthers released Dante Jax and id be happy if we signed Jordan Poyer and Morse to the roster. Thatd give us a corner and a center.

bru i hope they gotta plan

13 seconds says it all. LMAO

As a Chief's fan, I'm sad for Mitch Morse. He's a good dude.

Dallas needs to look into all of them asap

They had a window. Idk about now.

My guess is no to the question on a championship team. A good regular season team but not a good postseason team. Especially after watching the QB blow the last 2 minutes of the fourth quarter in the round 2 playoff game against the chiefs.

Most of these guys are injury prone, haven't even been on the field

"Hardy made some real plays this year" National media at its finest. Deonte Hardy was virtually non existent all season. The punt return in week 18 is the only play we remember Hardy making bud. He was useless.

The most infuriating part of this is that they will be competitive but lose in the divisional round again and get another mid draft pick

The last couple of years media keeps saying as long as Josh Allen qb bills will always be competitive. We lost many good injury prone players. Easily replaceable. I’m gonna miss poyer.

If you think “we have 17” and think its enough when you lose this much talent youre delusional

Wait did the just let poyer an white go

Should have gotten rid of Miller in favor of keeping Poyer and White imo, but I'm not a Bills fan, just a football fan looking in from the outside. Also signing Trubisky? COME ON REALLY?

The bills were never a championship team you know To Be A championship team you got to actually make it to the championship

my life is just pain...but love von

Wow really? Hahah we still got 17 😂😂😂 yea the window closed two years ago and got shut down this year. I’ve been a pats fan for 25+ years, lol the same ole bills hahaha

Dead cap has to be high now

How come Pat isn't wearing tank tops anymore. I know he s aid that he had to get em washed and order new ones. But it's been way over a month, did he address it?

Good thing they kept Miller, god forbid they kick the guy who was charged with a third degree felony (which just amazingly disappeared). Meanwhile an innocent punter not charged with a damn thing got railroaded, gotta love the NFL

Bills have never been a championship but damn they don't even have a chance now😂😂😂

They never were, not with Josh Allen. How could they still be one if they never were

Why are so many so willing to write off the Bills like they do KC . Its all wishful thinking.

the bills are going to have to dominate the draft to stay competitive. They have all their own picks plus 2 additional 5ths and 2 additional 6ths

Von miller helped bills greatly with a Pay cut.....people are brutal

Maybe we don't pay quarterbacks who're average at best in the 30-40 million range then you don't have to worry about cutting good players who're making in the 2-5 million dollar range. I know QB is the most important position and they should be paid the most but the different between an okay QB and a top tier player at any other position is ridiculous.

Colts got to bring Hines back!!!

Go BILLS

Ok real quick, morse suprised me but they have a starting oline right now and they will upgrade. Poyer hurts but hes older and micah will prob retire time to get young there. Tre wasnt gonna play half the season anyways coming off an achiles kills me to say bye to him but they have 2 starting corners. Harty didnt do 💩. So idk that id really call it cleaning house.

The bills will bring in russell wilson for all positional needs on that cheap ass contract

The cap is real and teams need to rethink how many high paid players they have like Diggs making 27 million, d backs mak8ng 25 million or quarterbacks making 45, 50, 55 million...

Here’s the reality other than Allen everyone needed to go they were never gonna win anything of importance wit their current squad it was time to gut it and start over… while keeping Josh… also fire McDermott

Von Miller is not the player he was with Denver. His injury with Buff , I think, he is still handy capped. Nice he has re-negotiated his contract to help build the roster. A typical Brady play.

17 Million was heading to Von Miller.

They’re clearing space to sign a good receiver, and that will make them able to compete with anyone, any day.

They weren't a championship team before the cuts why would they be now?

Packers have to move i see talent here 🤣

THE SALARY CAP ISN’T REAL PAT MCAFEE!!

I think Broncos fans are the most frantic currently. Lost some big names so far, and next year more big names will be at the end of their contracts

Bills shoulda won the SB the year they lost that 13 second game to KC. Coaching.

As a bill's fan... This day just sucks. .. I mean I don't know what else they were going to do... And I'm pretty sure most of them knew what was happening.And this doesn't even count the players like micah , Whose contracts just expired... But it's like a little piece of my heart just broke... I know it's football but when you live here, It's like the whole freaking reason.We live here... These are the guys we shovel snow for you know... I guess you don't know unless you know and if you know, it sucks

Insane listening to 90% of the same people saying Buffalo couldn't get it done with these same players (team) 6 weeks ago. Now there on a poster board like it's our fault..🤔.....Crazy narratives....

I'm sure if Von wants to be a GM he'll never give a 6yr deal out to a 33 year old pass rusher.
