  1. If the Bills win the superbowl i will be there downtown to celebrate. I will spend freak money on SB champ merchandise. I will be unbearable to my Steeler friend fans down here in PA. Im just old enough to know franchise QBs dont come around too often. Kelly was drafted in 1983, Josh 35 years later in 2018. The time to win it is now. My lying eyes tell me Josh and the offense can get it done, the problem, consistently in the playoffs falls on the D. McD was a D coordinator, to me he's the problem. Josh's playoff stats are awesome. The D, in the playoffs comes up small, repeatedly.
  2. Well keep puffing your chest out on the Jets/Dolphins/post dynasty Pats AFC east championships.
  3. Shottenheimer couldnt get it done with an immobile Bernie Kosar, a Joe Montana at the end of his career and a overrated Rivers, none of those 3 were as good as Josh is now.
  4. Thats exactly it right there. Im not willing to waste Josh on a coach that can't get it done, that would be a tragedy.
  5. Well like I said, I dont need to keep seeing groundhog day, I think some need to see it maybe 5-8 times before they will get it.
  6. Marty Shottenheimer got 2 gigs after Cleveland, still never got to the SB. Good coach, not a great coach. Pointing out McD would get another job after Buffalo changes nothing in my mind that he cant get us to the promised land.
  7. OMG in what world are you living. If McD won the superbowl they will name streets after him and he will coach here for life.
  8. I will say it until we move on from him, he is Marty Shottenheimer. I dont need to keep seeing groundhog day to know how it ends. It ends 2-3 steps short of the goal. 13 seconds showed me he's not the sharpest tool in the shed. i've said it before it was coaching malpractice, and that was with a TV timeout to prepare for the final plays. Everything you shouldn't of done, he did, from the KO to playing outside contain prevent D. It's always his side of the ball specialty that comes up small in big moments. I dont want to see 10 years of our defense getting pushed around in the playoffs. Eagles stopped the Chiefs 9 times in the superbowl, McD has done it 9 times in 4 playoff games. It can be done, just this guy cant do it. I think Reid/Spags vs McD is a serious mismatch.
  9. As you and promo pointed out, AI says the Bills will be on nationally at least 9 games, Im in the AFC central market so I wont get as many as promo. But it shows the ridiculousness of the pricing. 375 bucks for the other 8 Bills games, is 46.87 for each of the other 8 Bills games. I love football, I'll watch the three games on Sunday, the Monday nighter and Thursday. I dont give a crap that you get every game, I cant watch them all. I dont care if the Jets are playing Carolina or the Giants are playing Seattle, etc. It would be like buying a new car and having to pay for a bunch of options you dont want. I also hate when companies treat their existing customers worse than new customers. Heck even the phone companies have been moving away from that. I just retired, Im so glad teachers and professors who probably make more than me will be paying less. Im truly torn, but Im leaning without any discount I'll record the Bills replay when it comes on NFL network during the week. At this point it's a matter of principle at balking at the 375 price.
  10. Cook and Knox should flip salaries, I mean why are we paying 14 million for a guy with back to back 22 catch seasons.
  11. Maybe our NFL overlords can introduce PVLs, personal viewing licenses so you can pay for the right to buy Sunday ticket in the future in order to increase revenue.
  12. It is approaching a level I don't want to pay. I'm probably like a lot of people who do Sunday ticket, a out of towner ex Buffalo person, I want it just to watch the Bills. In a 17 game season, if the Bills are on national tv 6 games, that basically means I'm paying 375 for 11 Bills games which is over 34 bucks a game. That's getting pretty steep in my book, almost approaching a ppv fight. I do fantasy football, but i don't need to see every score in real time so I don't care about redzone, the crawl on the bottom of the tv will pretty much update you in real time on who scored. Maybe these gambling addicts need a 4 box screen to keep a real time eye on all their bets, but I don't think that's the average fan. If there are 4 games on Sunday, one on Monday and one on Thursday, there isn't a lot of other premium games I want to watch. Just my humble opinion, but the greed is getting out of control. Lastly as a returning subscriber who's not in one of the discount groups, well, that sucks too.
  13. You just have never seen McD out coach him in a playoff game.
  14. Anyone have a list of former Panthers we signed and have any of them been any good. Seems like its been a lot of swings and misses like Star and Tolbert.
  15. Ive re-watched most of them, doesnt bother me, I still lean left on the kick in the first superbowl thinking I can make it hook in.
  16. Some of these responses are as sappy as a maple tree in February. Save some for the Hallmark movie. Take it from an ARP age guy, franchise QBs don't come along all the time. Superbowl or bust!!!!
  17. Joe Schoen's talks with Mara about Saquon, his worth and his potential replacements on hard knocks will go down in history as some of the dumbest words to ever come out of a GMs mouth.
  18. Thats a pretty jaw dropping chart, just like the Eagles stopped the Chiefs 9 times in the superbowl and McD and his D have stopped the Chiefs 9 times in 4 playoff games. Its pretty clear to my lying eyes that McD consistently doesn't coach the D up in the big playoff games, in fact he regresses badly.
  19. Bell was used in the trade for C. Bennett, I think that's what he was referring to.
  20. I dont need AI for 67-71 I lived those years. I stand by what I said that no Bills fan is spoiled. Yankee fans are spoiled, Celtic fans are spoiled, Patriot fans are spoiled. Chief fans right now are spoiled. The poster I responded to said very young fans are spoiled. They've seen McD commit coaching malpractice in the 13 second game with his no squid/outside contain prevent D. They've seen Bass miss the kick and Kincaid's drop. They've seen heartbreak. Marty Shottenheimer took the Browns, Chiefs and Chargers to the playoffs, no one ever said fans of those teams were spoiled. No, Bills fans are for sure not spoiled.
  21. Following this team for over 50 years, I can say without hesitation that no Bills fan is spoiled.
  22. If we don't get it done again this year, I can guarantee there will be excuses on this board. Prime example will be we started a rookie, had rookies playing--it will take time for them to learn, player X got injured, etc.
