In my opinion, the part I highlighted is nothing more than a nostalgia that some sports fan have about the sport he/she loves. All of the major leagues have some fans who have the same gripe: the game/league was better X number of decades ago. The same people (not necessarily you) probably think the world was all sunshine and rainbows 40-50yrs ago too - the good ole days. It wasn't. I love the NFL. It's the best sports entertainment product there is in the United States. And no, it wasn't better 20yrs ago. The game is faster, the players are stronger, and the coaches are as good as ever.

HAHA..well done. sounds awesome. Question: are Buckeye brownies the same as just "Buckeye's" (peanut butter balls dipped in chocolate)? MMMMMMmmmmmmmmmmMMMMMMMmmmm

The "luck" disparity you mention between the NFL and baseball can't be proven one way or another. You say luck plays little part in MLB in the grand scheme of things compared to NFL bc of the greater number of games involved. But that statement is directly dependent on the assumption that "good luck" or "bad luck" eventually even out over a MLB season specifically because of the duration of the season. That is nothing more than an assumption. Something important here as well would be defining exactly what "luck" is. We will find such a task extremely difficult.

Exactly. Well said. Everyone is pointing the finger at football. We don't know the cause yet. There may be an association but not a direct causation.

But i thought there was a wide ranging conspiracy between the NFL and the Pats* for the Pats* to win every SB? Maybe the conspiracy will now extend to Cam.

It's not pretending, it's a FACT. Our schedule was ridiculously easy. Our "SOS" was pretty much blown out of proportion by only 4 teams (yes, 4 teams): the Pats, the Chiefs, the Bengals and the Jets. Those 4 teams alone went a combined 45 - 19. And we obviously played the Pats and Jets twice, so those 4 teams constituted 6 games. The combined record of the remaining teams we faced: Indy: 8-8 Fins (2x): 6-10 Giants: 6-10 Titans: 3-13 Jags: 5-11 Texans: 9-7 Eagles: 7-9 Skins: 9-7 Boys: 4-12 That's a combined record of: 57 - 87 OTHER THAN THE 4 TEAMS MENTIONED, ONLY 2 TEAMS WE FACED ALL SEASON HAD A WINNING RECORD. Fact is, we may go years before we face such an easy schedule again.

Did you read the entire article?

At end of the day you have to win those games. Pitt made the playoffs with their 3rd string Qb starting a bunch of games. Jags are going to keep getting better bc of their QB thats a fact. But hopefully so will we.

The Bills already lost to this brutal Jags team you keep referencing.

Indeed my friend.

Look at it this way. What is Robert Woods capable of? Last year he put up 699yds; 5TD's. Considering he's 23yrs old and in the thick of his prime, I'd say he can still do better. Lets look at other #2 WR's on playoff teams: Bengals' Marvin Jones: 816; 4TD's Pitt's Wheaton: 749; 5 TD's Texans' Cecil Shorts: 484; 2 TD's Chiefs' Albert Wilson: 451; 2 TD's Skins' Garcon: 777; 6TD's Packers' D. Adams: 446; 3TD's Panthers' T. Ginn Jr. as the #1 this season: 739; 10TD's; or Corey Brown as the #2: 447; 4TD Cardinals Floyd: 849; 6TD's Woods' numbers last season are right there with almost all of these #2's around the league (and Woods played on a bad team, not a playoff team with HOF's passing him the ball)...same thing applies to Atlanta, Dallas, etc. Again, he's 23yrs old and his arrow can still point up. For people that claim they want an upgrade over Woods: where is that "upgrade" coming from? Furthermore, in this run-first offense with a superstar #1 WR in Sammy Watkins, just how many chances do you think this new #2 is going to actually get?

In all fairness to Woods. Theres a reason why hes a "#2" and not "#1". How many second WR in this league demand double coverage? When AJ Green goes down are they double teaming Sanu? Same thing in Dallas. Same thing detroit. Same thing in Houston. Etc etc. All these teams suffer tremendously when their star WR goes down. If Clay can step up his game, Sammy, Clay, and woods are more than enough. Getting Clay to perform at the level of a top 5-7 TE would do wonders for this offense

Someone should do a study on the effects all these supplements these players take since they are 15yrs old. High school football players have an entire GNC cabinet in their lockers.

I don't think the Broncos will win. Like others have said, the Patriots are finally healthy at WR and it makes a world of difference now for Brady. The Pats also have an underrated defense - no superstars really but they play well as a unit. Only way I see Broncos winning is if they catch a couple of breaks on tipped balls for turnovers or win big on special teams.

BAHAHAH. Maybe he slept with the kid's mom?

Talk about being dramatic.

I actually don't think Cam comes off as selfish.

I can think of plenty of players that are more selfish than Cam: 1. DeSean Jackson 2. Half of the Bengals defensive starters 3. D. Murray 4. AP Off the top of my head.

LMAO..I get TMJ disorder just from looking at him.

He's come a long way from his days at Auburn, IMO. He's much more likable now. I personally didn't like him in college - seemed like a spoiled punk. But I had to keep things in perspective..a lot of people in college seem that way. I feel Cam has grown up as a player and as a person.

I thought only Bills QB's made plays like the one RW just did.

when this pats offense gets going, it's hard to stop no matter how good the defense is.

Yup yup. Fundamentally sound team.

Lmao
