Cribbs could have been in the Hall of Fame if he did not play in the USFL.

This is their answer to the critics who say they are obsessed with measurables. Draft a guy with rotten measurables! -
Rob Johnson is still bitter after 20 years
Charles Romes replied to Sky Diver's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Does RJ even know he's the all time NFL leader in sack per drop back percentage - an astonishing 14.8% rate - and that it's not even close for second place. They had to invent a whole new QBR after he single handedly exposed the sack flaw in the standard rating system. -
What was the worst Bills’ trade of all time?
Charles Romes replied to Sky Diver's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I have to agree with Lynch and the whole idea of "upgrading" Lynch with Spiller and spending a high first round pick to do it. When he was here I thought Lynch was a complete near generational back. All of the yards he was getting here were completely on his own. His negative yardage plays were minimal and he also had soft hands. Few RBs ran harder in the history of the league. He could elude tacklers and also run over people. He proved himself to be a hall of fame player after he departed. You could also throw in trading Jason Peters for a low first into the mix. He also went on to have a hall of fame career after his departure. -
Conspiracy Theory: About the Bills Schedule
Charles Romes replied to Like A Mofo's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I agree with the conspiracy theory. Russ has been great at selling tickets with an average at best team but the guaranteed sellouts always happen at the beginning of the years when people have money and the team is still alive for the playoffs. The games have always tough to sell in Buffalo around the Holidays even for the great 90s teams. The Houston miracle game was not a sellout. The league knows this and the schedule puts a lot of pressure on the organization to win to sell games with no option to tank and increase draft stock. To me it shows disrespect to the Pegulas who did a lot for the league when they purchased the franchise. -
Bruuuuuuce!!!! #2 on all time best #1 picks
Charles Romes replied to BuffaloBill's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
No matter how often his greatness is acknowledged on this board it is not enough. He brought us great joy for many years watching him dominant. With Watt heading for a short career another dimension of his greatness - durability - is highlighted. Thank you Bruce Smith. -
What would you grade the 2017 draft?
Charles Romes replied to Bing Bong's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
When you draft a starting cornerback and LT without any pick in the top 20 it's no less than an A -
Who is your second favorite team?
Charles Romes replied to Misterbluesky's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I have a soft spot in the heart for Al Davis for what he did for the AFL and therefore the Bills. -

Mel Kiper's Nightmare Mock 3.0
Charles Romes replied to BillsFanForever19's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Browns with even a minor amount of competence would not let this happen. Just let Bills and Broncos bid for #4 and the rights to Mayfield, get three seconds from the Broncos or similar to move down one and then draft Barkley at #5. -
I loved that 30 for 30 like interview with Polian where he gave a whole new perspective on Kay Stevenson. Polian said Stevenson and the front office were in a position where they could trade all their picks for short term talent or else faithfully make all of the picks to properly rebuild the franchise and lose their jobs. Polian credited Stevenson for doing the right thing. Polian said Stevenson insisted that the draft selections be made.

Jordan Matthews not coming back
Charles Romes replied to Reed83HOF's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I chalked up his lack of production in Buffalo to the Bills' QB situation and found it interesting that he found it necessary to highlight his injury problems. He could easily just blamed the QB situation, no one would have questioned that, and may have gotten better free agency deal. -
Home in '87 v the Dolphins Jerry Butlers last game. First time the 90s team rolled an opponent. 92 at the dolphins Monday night. Epic performance by Bruce By all rights game should have wrapped up home field.

Bills need all 8 picks in the draft to get better.
Charles Romes replied to Casmo's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
The Eagles rebuilt their 52% free agent roster from the ground up in 2 years and are now holding the trophy. It's the new NFL. There are many paths to building a team. -
A reasonable position to take. However, actually making the playoffs while not tanking was huge for the franchise and may have made the not tanking worth the effort. Removes a huge amount of pressure if and when the team actually becomes good.
