Mr. WEO

this certainly will not help them solve this problem...

He's not battling undergrads.... Plus, he stepped out because of what he has at home......

Poyer led the league in tackles after massive gains

come on....the co-eds are much hotter at the U than at UB.....

Good news for the Bills passing game

sometimes Gronk goes barefoot on vacation

He's orders of magnitude better than Bradford was...

Cant say that for Diggs…

Dont have to cover Knox….

Except he's not suddenly or always double covered. He simply disappears in elimination games. Look at his playoff losses: 2015 (vs Seattle): 4 catches for 26 yards 2017 (Philly): 8 for 70 2019 (SFO): 2 for 57 2020 (KC): 6 for 77 2021 (KC): 3 for 7 (yards) 2022 (Cincy): 4 for 35 2023 (KC) 3 for 21 1 TD, 293 yards, 51% catch rate over 7 elimination games. Compare that to 616 yards for the other 7 playoff games he has appeared in.

The biggest game every year is the final game. And in elimination games, he's not "crazy to win"....he's terrible, throughout his career.

You are conflating a discussion of why he came to Buffalo with one of why he took his recent deal (because "he's betting on himself").

we are discussing the fact that he’s not betting on himself

that's nice. see Happy Days and GunnerB above for more info....

links?

If this was 2012, 2014 or even 2016---or if his ACL was not surgically reconstructed at age 33---or if he was at all serviceable this past season a year out from his injury....you might have a point.

how will these people count to 10 in the future?

will you be starting more new threads about old topics as you hear about them, going forward?

wow 10 pages!

huge bust

He was due 18 million+ "for nothing", before restructuring. His current incentives may as well have included developing a home kit for nuclear fusion...

I think many want him to play to his contract. I doubt many will be cheering him on to make 20 more million dollars. You miss the point. 15 sacks gets him to his originally agreed upon salary. It's not really a "bonus". Plus this notion that he is "betting on himself" is silly---he had little chance but to accept this deal, given his age, recent injury and subsequent lack of production. Of course he came for the money--and Beane was happy to overpay. Why else would he be here?

hard pass on an oft injured 4 big season prima donna with maturity issues. we're full right now....

see above. 15 sacks to get the 9 million back. He has had one season over 15 many years ago.

It would be hard to imagine less effort. The guy has 180 million, 2 rings. A couple million more for some sacks I really don't think it does it for this guy at this point (he would need a ridiculous 15 sacks to get back to his original 2024 compensation). He's old and he came off a bad injury that old players don't just blast out of the gate from.
