All_Pro_Bills

There were a couple individual bright spots but part of that is because everyone else was so bad. The Bills looked completely unprepared in all 3 phases of the game last night. If you didn't know it you would think they were the team that didn't have more than a couple team practice sessions over the past two weeks. I put this one on the coaches and the disruption caused by all the uncertainty surrounding when the game will be played.

A great punt puts the Bills at the 2. This is what we want to see here. Josh and the O going 98 yards. No 3 and out here.

Most concerning is the Bills look totally unprepared. Let's see what kind of adjustments they make in 2nd half.

No pass rush, no linebacker depth and a secondary playing soft. Not a good look tonight. Some drops on offense.

But isn't that what they did with the Russia hoax? Use the apparatus and resources of the government and intelligence agencies against Trump?

When referring to "rigged" people should really speak about voter fraud and voter suppression. Voting by those that have no valid citizenship claim to the district or state they are voting in or voting multiple times or actions to suppress or prohibit citizens from casing valid ballots. The Dems say Reps are vote suppressors and the Reps say the Dems are voter fraudsters. That I think sums up the playing field here.

Point goes to the Chiefs because they've got the SB and their franchise QB locked up what for might be the next 10 years for just a swap of a first pick and a first the year after. Allen is making progress to the level of play the Chiefs are getting out of Mahomes but there's a ways to go and the team hasn't won anything yet. With all the wheeling and dealing Beane did in that draft to get Allen at 7 you might want to through the Edmunds pick in too. So Mahomes for White, Allen, and Edmunds is the way I see it.

The OP's post represents everything I've been arguing with my liberal friends and family. Specifically, they believe they are morally and intellectually superior to everyone else and those that disagree with them are of low intelligence or suffering from some behavioral disorder or one of many character flaws. I know this because when I challenge their views with this conclusion they have no answer. The truth is that when you reach a certain point in life you realize nothing is black and white. There is no absolute good or absolute evil. Or other extremes. Everything around us resides in the gray areas in between. Maybe if more people accepted that conclusion we'd all be better off?

The difference is the alt-right nut jobs see the government as the biggest threat to freedom. As such the government sees them as a real threat. To their power and control, not to the safety and security of the general public. One of their objectives is to shrink the government, through violence if necessary, and return to a time of limited government. Obviously, government officials with lots of power aren't on board with any of this stuff. The alt-left nut jobs see the government as their means to impose their authority and program on the population. They want to control every action of every citizen from what they eat to what words they speak. The government watches these groups closely too but their view of the risk they pose is somewhat different. After all, they have the same agenda as the government which is to acquire and wield more power over the people. So they really don't have any argument with the objective. The difference is how to use it and who calls the shots.

If the Titans or any other teams are proven to have broken league protocols they should face penalties. This includes forfeiting games and if the outbreak keeps spreading maybe all the way to shutting them down for the season. It seems unreasonable to expect every other team on their schedule to be inconvenienced or forced to accommodate their recklessness and disregard for the rules established and agreed to by the teams.

If the league finds the Titans broke mandated protocols and procedures a more equitable thing might be to give the Titans a loss but not award the Bills a win. And then account for this in determining tie breakers and other impacts to playoff seeding and the standings. That might be fairer to the rest of the league than gifting the Bills a win. But if I'm the Bills I'd be more than cautious here. I wouldn't want to expose my team to the Titans at this point under any circumstances.

So has Barr really been working to expose misconduct and criminal activity within the government agencies and departments or is he a "Trojan Horse" working for the deep state playing the role of "Good Cop" but in reality blocking anything from happening?

https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/fastats/deaths.htm So is the "risk" of COVID exaggerated? I'm not saying the virus isn't dangerous. But I've got a lot of questions that I can't seem to find answer to. Most of them seem like questions people "following the science" would like and need answers to in order to properly set policy and assess the risk to public safety. But that don't seem that curious. And their proclamations are at times ambiguous or muddled with inconsistencies. Just a few are: When the virus first hit there was a massive number of deaths on the East coast, particularly NY and NJ but not so much on the West coast. Were there two distinct strains of COVID at work here? One more deadly than the other. Is there a clear understanding of how transmission occurs? It seems like after 7 or 8 months we'd have a better understanding. Is it surface contact, droplets, aerosol? I've read some research that suggests flushing toilets can hurl viral material into the air from infected feces and travel through ventilation in buildings like apartment complexes. Is this true? Are "super spreaders" asymptomatic? Or do they need to display symptoms to be infectious? At what point in the cycle does a person become infectious. PCR tests are said to be inaccurate because they identify a significant number of false positives. What's the false positive rate on these tests? Is there a more accurate test? The survival rate for people under 18 is said to be 99.997% with the risk of severe or critical infection close to zero. Why isn't this mechanism understood yet? How many mutations of the virus have been identified? Are the recent mutations more harmful, less harmful, or the same? There are dozens of medications and treatments in clinical trials right now. Many appear to be very effective. Why is there only one treatment approved so far? The FDA was supposed to speed the approval process. Why isn't this happening? Why aren't they granting more EUA's? There appears to be no sense of urgency here. If the risk of severe or critical illness and death is concentrated in people over 70 and those with specific pre-existing conditions why isn't policy customized to protect the most vulnerable and allow younger people more freedoms?

Fortunately the Bills have a HC and team leaders that will not allow any of their teammates to believe they have any advantage in any way.

I think the lefties are going to have another meltdown when Trump walks back into the White House. They were jumping for joy about his impending death over the weekend only to wake up this morning to the "bad" news. He's feeling better! The Russia hoax, the Ukraine hoax, impeachment, and all the other swings and misses of almost 4 years and now it looks like COVID couldn't kill the undead President. Micheal Moore and others have suggested Trump is faking it. I expect Trump to ask if you really believe that Michael why don't you visit me so I can sneeze in your face? Who needs "reality TV" when we've got all this drama?

I think a big part of it is the approach of each team. The Bills appear to have some strategic thinkers with the GM, HC, and OC. They've created a blueprint to bring Allen along and have added pieces to the offense over the last two off seasons. The Jets have no such approach. And Gase is just awful. While the Jets draft brought a talented LT and WR to the team both are/or have been injured. They have a lot of holes. The other part is the make up of the players. Allen has had to work for everything to this point and plays with a chip. One story going around is he sought out Tony Romo at the Super Bowl and asked him "how do I get better". He's driven to prove himself, almost too driven sometimes, and that drive is also transforming into leadership and energizing the entire team. He is clearly the leader and the face of this team in season 3. Darnold had a lot of success in college and was looked at as being ready for the pro game coming out of a big school program. While he and Josh trained with Palmer in the off season you don't hear much, and maybe because we're focused on the Bills, about Darnold picking up his game or any fundamental improvements. My guess is the Jets tank and get the #1 pick in the 2021 draft and if Lawrence comes out they pick him. Sam goes somewhere else as a back up initially and maybe works his way to starter in a more stable system. As there are a few teams that have veterans coming to the end there are a few potential landing spots.

Can we offer a 6th next year for J.J. Watt? Maybe he takes it!

He came back to the sidelines for that 10 yr. $100 deal!

Who wants to drive over a bridge engineered and built by people that think math is racist so 2+2=5? These people are suffering from some group delusion or mental illness. It's all BS that will suddenly disappear if Biden wins next month.

My views align with much of what you say. My basic premise of human behavior is everyone acts out of their own self-interest. So politicians, activists, do-gooders, and others aren't acting out of duty to serve the people, or helping those in need, or ending injustices. They are acting to enhance their own power, or wealth,, or status, or some other benefits. If what agenda they're pushing gets them there its not important what consequences or problems they cause for others. I view all these social movements, political causes, and other "end world hunger" type people as con artists. Professional liars. The people I admire and value are those that have their own convictions and mind their own business. The other thing about what you believe is how much credibility you assign to the messenger. And how much first-hand, expert, or other types of knowledge and experience you might have about the subject. My advice, be skeptical but open-minded, think critically, ask questions, get other views, identify the motivation of others, always be wary of people that are certain they are correct (including me!)

When Trump is suddenly "cured" Michael Moore will charge he was provided the Russian vaccine by his good buddy Putin.

China has already bought off most of the big U.S. tech firms so will they be held accountable? No. If you post on Twitter or Facebook or other social media platforms that the virus was bio-engineered in the Wuhan lab and intentionally released to the rest of the world your account will be disabled and the tweet removed. Removed by "fact checkers", who have correct and accurate firsthand knowledge of the lab's operations, procedures, and activities along with direct access to CCP strategic decision makers. I jest here because they know absolutely nothing firsthand. So how can the check facts without facts? They've even censored postings and papers from Chinese scientists with direct knowledge of the lab and the governments bio-weapons programs some of which have disappeared or died from the virus. Many scientists have concluded its impossible for any natural mutation of coronavirus to acquire HIV and "splice" itself into the host virus. This can only be produced in a laboratory setting. The fingerprints of human intervention are all over the genetic code and structure of the virus. Anyone that talks about this openly is immediately dismissed by the lapdog media as spreading conspiracies. But truth, which matters not, is these fact checkers and media mouthpieces don't know squat about anything. All that matters is protecting the narrative of their sponsors and funders. Fact checking logic is as follows. <Your view> NE <official narrative> = <incorrect/fake>. Result = censorship. We're entering an era where the truth is the biggest threat to control and censorship is the major weapon to suppressing any free speech, critical thinking and expression of views conflicting with the official view.

That's a good question and I don't know of any definitive answer from any researchers or virologists. My best guess based on other corona-viruses and similar viruses like the common cold is that "natural" immunity will be for a limited time. Like if you get a cold and give it to everybody in the house. You won't get it again right away but let 4 or 5 months pass and you might. Whether a vaccine is going to be a lifetime immunization isn't clear either. My guess it becomes a seasonal shot like the flu.

I wouldn't say they are stupid but rather they are crafty. They introduce false comparisons, like deflecting the conversation, by asking if the suspect was black instead of white for example, in order to avoid answering a direct question or providing an answer that is obvious but runs contrary to their stated position. In this way they make it seem like you are the one that has inconsistent positions rather than the opposite which is they are the one's with inconsistency issues. But the answer most of us would provide is it doesn't matter if he was Black or White or Asian or Hispanic or a member of any other racial group. If he acted in self-defense and the facts support that contention that's the only think that matters.

When woke politicians and out-of-town political & social activists push to remove police from neighborhoods people figure out real fast they're going to be left to defend themselves.
