If you could ask McDermott a few questions...
transient replied to Bermuda Triangle's topic in The Stadium Wall
I'd ask him if I was the only one sitting at the bar that wishes Daboll would have gotten a head coaching job in the off season. -
I would argue that there has never in the history of the world been sanctity in professional sports. You may find it with a bunch of kids playing in a vacant lot, but that concept goes out the window as soon as fame, money, influence and power are involved. Sanctity in professional sports is a romanticization created by those that make their money telling stories. They can be compelling and entertaining, but at the end of the day professional sports nowadays are basically "reality" TV with a virtually limitless budget and more spontaneity/uncertainty in the script. They just panders to a different demographic than most other reality shows.

Wouldn’t work. It would become the war cry of the saboteur. My first thought was “if we could, I can think numerous threads over the last week that I would have tossed that grenade into.”

He looks athletic… Can he play guard? Or RB? How’s his run defense? Git’r done Beane.

Actually, I think we just have a lot of posters in here who have finally moved on from the “our run defense will be better when Star comes back” narrative, myself included. His case of “boo-boo foot” is just the final in a long line of straws that broke the narrative’s back. Now a fresh new group are adding their frustration to the chorus of venting to the stars.

Train Horn Haters - Alternate Ideas?

I think they should pipe in the montage of Kurt Cobain's screams from the beginning of "From the Muddy Banks of the Wishkah" -
Until recently, I'd argue that Tyrod has been the anti-Fitz. Expected to start, then supplanted by a combination of poor play and an unintentional ~~wink wink~~ needle in the lung. Whereas Fitz is expected to back up, but then the starter mysteriously ends up karmically Gilloolied and there's Fitz behind center again.
-
I would take Tyrod over Moss, Brieda, or Singletary at RB at this point. I have no interest in him in the QB room for Buffalo ever again, though.

This FO had been methodically addressing weaknesses on the team prior to the pandemic. I would love to know what FA/draft would have looked like without the unplanned drop in the salary cap. They made the necessary moves in the off-season to compete with KC, which seemed reasonable at the time. They also tried to bring in JJ Watt to address the DL (which thankfully they missed out on). Without the regression in the OL this season (though one might argue since the playoffs last season) the poor run D could have been overcome. I think they were counting on getting out of the gate quickly on offense and forcing teams to keep up. It just hasn’t happened, which exposes their defense to power running teams.

'Til the one day when the Brady met this Burrow And they knew that it was much more than a hunch... That this group would somehow win it all... Brady'd turn pro... and "the show's" DCs would eat his lunch They'd. Eat. His. Lunch. They'd eat. His lunch.
-
IMO, given the Bills’ window of opportunity, with the timeline of development at various positions I’d rather see them fill the OL with solid players through FA and draft a more physically gifted RB in round 2-3 next season. When that RB’s rookie deal expires, on to the next. Personally, I think it’s fine to draft one, I just wouldn’t commit serious money to one long term.

Hopefully he's put some time in on the range to work on that wicked slice. -

I wonder if he still has the key to the city so he can let himself in? -
What is your Buffalo Bills relationship status?

Gave up tryin' to fight it. I kept movin', but the B word kept findin' me. -
Boy or girl? https://www.etsy.com/shop/PalmStoneCreations?ref=simple-shop-header-name&listing_id=787762948 Josh Allen jersey earrings for girls, charging buffalo soap for boys (extrapolating from my early teenage years and assuming all teenage boys could use soap... at least in the eyes, or noses, of those around them).

My brother had a dog that used to do the most mind bogglingly stupid things. He named him Edison…

Or at least since the Tennessee game. The difference being Tennessee wasn't getting it done on defense either, until that last play, so the game didn't seem as lopsided.

I have been reading what you've been spouting. It's been filled with hyperbolic rhetoric like "whizzing bullets", "Sodom and Gomorrah", a selection of an article including the term "blood letting", and so on... and now you're backing it up with a snippet from an article from a conservative North Shore political personality whose goal has been to paint the picture of failure on crime of the current administration locally and nationally. It's transparent. I'd venture to guess you're more familiar with Google searching for subjective trigger words and statistics to spout out of context to back up your preconceived notions than you are with the area. I've lived in numerous major cities, including NOLA for the past 5+ years. For the average person it's no more or less dangerous than any other major city. Just like any other city there are areas you should avoid, especially after dark. Violent crime had been decreasing in the years prior to the pandemic, and now it's surging during the pandemic, just like it is nearly everywhere else in the country. Here's some free advice, if you ever come to NOLA and you don't want bullets "whizzing past your head" while you dine, don't eat in the Lower 9th ward at 2 in the morning.
