Ends??? Herb playing the euphonium sounds to me like things are just getting started. Not sure how I managed to do that? I know his name, and “p” and “b” aren’t even close to one another on the keyboard.

Cool. Maybe tonight after the pick-6 Bob Costas will morph into Walking Dead Marv Alpert in panties and a garter and bite Tom Brady and Bill Belichick during the sideline melee... just a little social experiment to see how prone to suggestion your dreams are.

FYI, publicly discussing Bills culture without prior consent is a HIPAA violation, Schefter.

Before you go you could at least have the decency to start a feeble thread grandstanding... err... apologizing to anyone you may have offended and, while you’re at it, maybe a thread to poll members on whether or not you should stay. I can’t answer the first question, but the answer to the second is cheese... I mean it has to be cheese, right?

If it’s going quickly, clearly the thread doesn’t have prostate issues. And where are these aforementioned rails the thread is peeing off of? I’d like to avoid them.

That’s what happens when you build a city 7 feet below sea level on sandy ground in a rainy climate...

Eff Barkley... he’s the best looking (assuming you’re into meathead Jessie Pinkman) Marry Fitz... he’s got a Haaaavaaad degree in finance, so he’d probably be the best provider Kill Tyrod... because by the end of his Bills tenure he made me want the bash my own head in with a rock or maybe Eff Tyrod... cuz he’s got that irresistible sense o style that oozes “Hey baaabbyyy” Marry Barkley... cuz dems da rules and ya gotta marry someone Kill Fitz... for continually raising my hopes and then crushing them in a torrent of last minute boneheaded interceptions I didn’t bother to read it. This is the gist of the thread, right???

Not gonna happen... unless, maybe, you can convince Gruden that Shady is the Bills emergency QB... in which case he’d be all over that shiznit.

Clelin Ferrell = Colin Farrell's dyslexic doppleganger (why are you looking at me like that... it's only fitting that the nickname be a bit of a reach)

Daniel Jones = Gettleman's Folly

Glenn had a massive contract and ankle issues and by “giving him away” Beane acquired the draft capital to move up and get Allen...

Because he’s smart enough to realize he would have been getting HOF talent at a fire sale price?

So Ed, before I hand over this pen for you to sign on the dotted line, we’ve prepared a little slideshow of things we never want to see you do again...

I thought this was a trick question. I would have guessed Chris Fischetti.

T. Tsujimoto.

The ones where Ty Montgomery played running back because it justifies the Bills drafting DK Metcalf and converting him to a tackle.

September 2003... 5000 posts... that’s not even a post-per-day. We need to juggle your line and find you a TBD-pivot who can feed you in the slot more. Uhhh... sorry... wrong forum.

Great read. Thanks for posting. Despite the fact they reached out to Popovich for input, the best part about this to me is he declined and it's all from the perspective of those who've experienced it. He seems to have a unique insight into human connection... almost like Parts Unknown or No Reservations meets the NBA.

Is it me or does that spider's stance have "Bring it, m***** f*****!" written all over it?

I don't know, I think Miles has got some toughening up to do before he's ready to move to DL...

Hopefully over the next 50 years Patriots*** fans will rue this as the event that begat the Gronkowski curse that plunged the team into never ending incompetence and irrelevance.

It's hard to argue with a man with an ax to grind who believes that 54% is less than half and that regurgitated box score/play by play is detailed analysis...

It’s not out of the question. He only needs 40 yds to get there... you did mean for his career, right?

The only way Hogan sees Canton is if he's asked to hold Marsha's joc... hmmm... not sure... what's the... gender appropriate... term... I dunno... ?mangina strap? on that unholy day when Mrs. Bundchen is inducted into the HOF.

I'm sure this was time consuming, but I don't think I place the same value on it that you do. Looking through the percentages above, regardless of win or loss, they tended to throw deep on 20-30% of their attempts every game Allen played with the exception of two outliers. The Packers game when you ask about a correlation because they threw deep 7 time in a loss instead of 5 times in a win... they actually threw deep less than the week before percentage-wise. This assessment also ignores game circumstances. Take the first two games of the season as an example. The Bills were down 26-0 and 28-6 by halftime. Teams getting blown out by halftime tend to throw a lot in the second half and get sacked in the process and they tend to lose. In the Packers game they were already down by 19 and not generating any offense when 6 of those 7 sacks happened and when 4 of those 7 "deep passes called" happened. I'm not an X's and O's guy, and I didn't rush to All 22 to formulate this argument, but I don't equate "deep passes called" to "deep passes thrown." I don't recall a lot of 4 and 5 wide patterns where they were all running fly routes, so some of who the ball ends up being thrown to has to be placed on QB decision making. It wouldn't surprise me if a guy who can throw a ball 80 yds tries to make that happen a few times a game. It would, however, surprise me if they drafted a guy who could throw the ball 80 yds and then told him not to throw the long ball. They had no running game outside of Allen and their receivers were worthless for over half of the season regardless of the depth of their routes. The most reliable part of the offense outside of Allen's rushing, as evidenced by his numbers after week 10, was Foster who is a deep threat...
