I didn't misunderstand. I am very familiar with how Pegula has run the Sabres so far. There obviously will be salary constraints, perhaps less restrictive than under previous ownership but Pegula almost certainly will not overspend. There is no reason to believe having this new owner, who undoubtedly will keep the team in Buffalo, is going to help resigning players or luring top players to Buffalo. The NFL is a business first, to players and owners alike. One 9-7 record in 15 years, albeit a good first baby step, is not the superbowl or close to it. Facilities and travel, really? And last but not least, downplaying the QB issue is ludicrous. It is a HUGE glaring problem, now more prominent with Ortons retirement and no first round pick in the upcoming draft to either use or barter with.
Well, the cupboard is far from bare I suppose due to defense, special teams, and Watkins, so that statement is true as well. But I find the majority of that post to make no sense at least to me.
Now if Manuel suddenly becomes a NFL QB, then the cupboard is not only not bare, but it becomes pretty damn full. But Manuel is far from there at the moment, IMO.
