  1. Kitchens is a one and done head coach.
  2. After watching the Jets sleepwalk against the Eagles, couple thoughts: The Jets have already quit on Adam Gase. Sam Darnold and his healthy spleen won't save this season. These players have no interest in playing for this guy. If this team wins 3 games, it'll be beating expectations. Lots of disinterest and quit there. Adam Gase is a weird guy - he stood completely alone on the sideline the entire game. No coaches or players near him. During warmups, didn't really talk or hang around anyone else. He's noticeable from the stands because he's the coach dressed in all black. Woody Johnson - equally as weird - he did not step one foot across the Jets sideline, as if there was a force field. Jeff Lurie had to cross the *entire* width of the field to shake his hand and say hello. Johnson just waited for Lurie to get there. The Jets linebackers are slow. Hewitt is a good run stopper but he can't cover across the middle against anybody. The Philadelphia offense was pedestrian yesterday about across the middle was open all the time. Steve McClendon is a baller. If the Bills were going to trade for defense, he'd be a guy who I'd like to see the Bills get.
  3. If it's Bills gear or even Bills colors, it's a-ok. Bills fans come from all walks of life, some with limited means to invest in the team. Nobody should be shamed for wearing a historic jersey - and that's what they truly are - historic treasures, a snapshot in time of the franchise and the fan's life. I personally like the menagerie of jersey colors and names. Still impressed with the fan who had an authentic John Digiorgio jersey who wasn't...John Digiorgio.
  4. At the Eagles game today he stood alone on the sideline the entire game. Not a coach around him for all four quarters. The team and staff were always 5 yards away. That team has quit on Gase. 10 sacks today by the Eagles.
  5. Odd about Caribou - Giant/Weis here in PA have ample supplies of it. I enjoy sampling the pod coffees so if I see something new, I'll pick it up to try it out but I'm also a big fan of the Caribou line of pods.
  6. Unfortunately, a Bills game is no place for a family outing, so why bother. That's on the Pegulas and the Bills. I applaud your restraint. That was a difficult situation.
  7. If she's serious about running, you will start to see organizational changes at the DNC before any announcement. All of this sudden public exposure is to gauge the opinion of DNC super delegates and donors.
  8. Give Allen a week off. Matt Barkley can ball.
  9. I'd be interested in the knowing the concept or idea behind the use of the black color by the OP. That's usually the most insightful part of an idea's storyboard.
  10. A. He always has his team ready to play and the team is undefeated. However, taking the foot off the gas in the second half will bite him. He has to figure that out.
  11. That's my point. The mafia isn't a fan base. It's a highly violent criminal organization. Somehow, some dork decided that should be attached to a football fan base. Let's do something with a strong World War II German military them next year like Billsmacht and get some polling when Bills fans start showing up with Iron Cross flags in red white and blue. (I'm kidding.)
  12. Sure did. Bills mafia was a dumb name before I read the article. Post article? Still dumb.
  13. I love the Bills fan base for its spirit and philanthropy. I like the oddities, the rituals, the weirdness and the amazing menagerie of fans from all walks of life. I like how it's distinctly not corporate. However, the Bills Mafia name itself is just so dumb. I feel like it was created by people who have never opened a history book and for some, especially Italian-Americans, I can see where it's culturally insensitive and disturbing, given the Italian mafia's violent history, to see it so freely used.
  14. Rams I hate the Rams. This franchise has been pretty successful historically despite having two of the worst owners in NFL history - Georgia Frontiere and Stan Kroenke. This franchise has jerked around multiple cities and multiple fan bases - Los Angeles, Anaheim, St. Louis and Los Angeles again. Frontiere should have never been able to move them to St. Louis in the 90s.
  15. New plays and sets you haven't run before on both sides of the ball for every quarter of the game. If you approach a Patriots game with your same script, formations, etc. you will lose. They prey on "process" guys like McDermott on a tactical level.
  16. I was right about Rosen. Although I think Josh Allen is a 21st Century Jeff George, he's worked on his accuracy and it's better than I thought it'd be.
  17. If I was a Democrat candidate for President, I'd be horrified at what happened yesterday. Can't run a campaign on being "pro impeachment" and it's going to suck every single oxygen molecule out of the news cycle.
  18. I think it'll be the opposite. They will remove Beasley and make Knox/Zay Jones beat them. I think they can live with the danger of bombs to Brown and Foster. If Allen throws for over 300 yards with deep strikes, they lost to a great performance by a young quarterback.
  19. Chargers should stay in their current stadium or move out of CA. It's hard to fill that many seats in California, even in a shared stadium. The "cozy" NFL stadium of 30K or less seats is the future. I like San Antonio for a relocation. It attracts the Mexican football fan without having to put a franchise there which IMO would be an unmitigated disaster for the NFL. However, the Alamodome is terrible for everything. They'd need a new place.
  20. First real test for both clubs. The Patriots are fragile (no depth) and the Bills play only half a game. The Patriots will make Zay Jones and Dawson Knox beat them by removing Cole Beasley from the equation. On offense they will try running it up the middle - a lot - and test the DTs since Edelman isn't 100% and TB really can't throw it down the field anymore.
  21. That team played better under Gregg Williams last year. Kitchens IMO is another coordinator who's a great, bright coordinator but a mediocre coach. As head coach, he can't focus on what he did well last year with Mayfield and play calling.
  22. The Bills offense will need to play all four quarters next Sunday and not be predictable. They better mix it up.
  23. I agree with the OP. If the Bills are truely better, they should beat teams that on paper, have less talent than them. This Bengals game is going to be difficult. They will play with nothing to lose.
  24. Yep. Nearly two decades ago! (That sucks.) Would 1970s values be relevant in 1990?
  25. I personally wouldn't apologize if I were him. The groveling apologies are nauseating. Times were different. The West did not have the hyper sensitivity it does today. When do we start persecuting the Wayans family for White Girls?
