  1. Safety would be nice here. Maybe Tua cracks.
  2. The Goo Goo Dolls' Better Days was used post Katrina by CNN for relief efforts and by the Sabres in 2007 for their playoff run. Full of hope and provides a challenge to the listener to make a difference, it can't help but put one in a better mindset. QUEST FOR THE CUP: Goo Goo Dolls Buffalo Sabres, Better Days - Bing video
  3. Why is it friend of a friend is usually first in with the story as in the Ed Oliver blood test? Feel bad for Fitz. He is running short of a shot at postseason opportunity.
  4. It was short so I watched it. Just as I thought, he made no mention of the blocked punt last year. Any astute analysis of this play that does not mention last year's play is not so astute, imo. It was a huge play last year and the Bills were suitably embarrassed by it. I wonder how many times they ran this play in practice since then. is Being supremely prepared to handle a situation is not arrogance.
  5. We are on the verge of being in a world where we will no longer need to hear about how they could have drafted Mahomes but traded down instead. I never liked the point anyways because choosing the next high draft choice QB was always a job better left to the next GM and staff. I will be ok with it in terms of telling the story about how this current team was built but we should not be exposed ever again to this story told as some sort of a franchise altering error. Only really lame thinkers would cling to that opinion and I do know there will always be some of those people around.
  6. The NFL passer rating is a poor measure for QBs with actual running ability that their teams rely upon. Scoring a TD or two via run does nothing to elevate the rating but sure means something to their teams chances to win. Scrambling to avoid a sack and then throwing the ball away hurts the passer rating. I hate the mystery meat of tQBR but that at least tries to incorporate everything a QB does in every game situation. I suspect those tQBR numbers would look more stable than NFL passer rating.
  7. Yes. Yes we do. Our Bills are real and they are spectacular!
  8. I got here late but I knew I would find this somewhere in the thread. This will be a GIF that will enter classic status very quickly.
  9. To all those saying Barkley its trash, I say we have seen him exactly one time with the first unit and a full week of practice. He was very good that game.
  10. Stabler underhanded it forward while under tackle and Pete Banaszak had the ball in both hands and flipped it forward where Casper kicked and batted into the endzone for the recovery TD which covered 24 yards. The officiating crew did not rule any of these as intentional which would have ended the play. Thus, I thought the rule change made as a result applied to forward fumbles only and not backwards ones too.
  11. I am old and I remember the play. That involved 2 phony forward flips of the ball to advance it toward the endzone for the TD with 10 seconds to go. I thought the rule made a distinction about the direction of the fumble. It does not.
  12. That ball was intentionally fumbled forward.
  13. I suspect officials scewed the Browns on the call. Fumbled backwards and did not hit the ground. That should be eligible for advancement, imo.
  14. Browns have a strong TE group. I think they could build a successful gameplan around them.
  15. It used to be a delay-of-game penalty to spike a ball with the clock running. I wonder when that changed.
  16. I think the Browns will lean on multiple TE formations and it will be effective for them. Their #4 TE, Steve Carlson, is from WNY and he plays mostly on special teams but he can play well from scrimmage if asked. Hooper, Bryant and Njoku are pretty solid TE trio in front of Carlson.
  17. I like the Colts as the 1st round opponent. The dome team with the ancient, immobile QB who offers little threat for making plays off script seems like a great matchup for our defense
  18. I expect him to be advertising pistachios. Soon he'll be the most famous pistachio farmer in the world.
  19. Against the Ravens in OT. One of Fitz' first starts so it was maybe 2010 ish. They were big underdogs and really deserved the win.
  20. Wherever I read it recently I don't recall, but, Diggs is the only player with 1300+ yds from scrimmage not to have lost a fumble. When he gives up on a play there are multiple defenders involved, he has gotten the key yardage to be gained and by doing so he protects both himself and the ball. I am totally ok with it. He is not pulling a Kyle Orton.
  21. they might be going live Waiting for plane?
  22. "...exhausted from being awesome." Me likey.
