😩 We're all gonna die!

Enjoy the ride. We continue to be blessed. I'm drooling for a Lomardi as much as the next guy. However, I am also not about to complain about Christmas gifts. With this team, every day is Christmas morning in Bills country.

Oh look, someone is complaining again about a Buffalo Bills decision. You know, the team with the NFL's second-best record and most home wins since 2020. Damn that Bills' front office!

I've been following this thread with some amusement and bemusement. Except for the Chiefs, no franchise in the NFL has sustained the Bills' consistent level of excellence. It's really that simple and is the irrefutable indictment of PFF's top ten coaching list. 2024-25 may have been McDermott's best year, as we kept our top level of competitiveness while transitioning our core. Any top 10 coaching list without McDermott is not a top 10 coaching list. I understand and share the frustrations listed in this thread. - The defensive line churn. - The heavy reliance on Josh. Although our improved O-line and running game are nice steps forward. - And, of course, the still elusive Lombardi trophy. Honestly, I'm 64 with cancer - please win the go***mned thing while I am here to cherish the moment. Don't let thoughts of purity and perfection deny you the opportunity to enjoy this period of greatness. They create the denial of a happy life.

"Us"?

I seriously doubt Beane is refusing to pay the man. However, very few players (Allen and Mahomes aside) get to simply demand their salary. It appears Cook has attempted to do this on social media. He must be willing to negotiate. We have no idea what is happening behind closed doors. He may be privately engaged in earnest negotiations. I have no doubt the Bills are making serious offers. We'll see where it lands.

He's a cartoon character. I never took anything Daffy Duck said seriously - just enjoyed the entertainment. The same holds true with the cheetah.

Dion. His public letter after the mass shooting made me a big fan. Great player, great guy.

I don’t think anyone wants him gone. Speaking only for myself, I hope we extend him without disrupting the Bills salary cap structure. The conversation is about “at what cost?”.

I just stumbled across this. Given Buffalo's offseason activities, do you still feel the same? This is an honest question - not a challenge.

I think people were (myself included) breathing a sigh of relief, rather than cheering. "like from a Shakespearian/Greek tragedy/film noir perspective"? 😁 You may be (no sarcasm here) too smart for me to mess with.

Yes, because as NFL history shows, once a player pulls a hammy, their career is finished. 😏

This is the very definition of hyperbole. The season does NOT hinge on a new deal for Cook. Fortunately, in Beane, we have a GM with a real business and football mind.

This is what I am worried about. If Cook shortcuts his preparation (not saying he will, just watching from afar), his body may not be prepared for the season and could break down.

If you go to that restaurant, you can purchase the whole meal. They won't band together with other restaurants, forcing you to pay full meal prices at other restaurants for each course and drink. Restaurants are also not subsidized by taxes for their buildings. Restaurants also do not bombard you with advertisements, forcing you to wait three minutes before taking each bite. Very poor analogy.
