Offensive Line - Any Chance it Holds Up?
billsfan1959 replied to BuffaloBaumer's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Yes. There's a chance. -
Of course it was about Vic. Graham said, "Strange to see my coworker with his arm around a convicted rapist." No different than if he had said, " Strange to see my coworker wearing a dress." It was about publicly passing judgment on what Vic was doing. Who knows the reason why? Given what we know about Graham, we can only assume that the reason was petty and about propping up his very fragile ego in some way.

President cancels Eagles trip to White House

If this is your litmus test for respecting the president, then the list of presidents deserving respect could probably be written on a matchbook cover... -

National Anthem Solution
billsfan1959 replied to machine gun kelly's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I am prior military, a retired law enforcement officer, and still work within the criminal justice system. I feel kneeling during the national anthem is disrespectful in general. It doesn't make me angry, it doesn't upset me, and I fully supprort their right to protest. However, I still feel it is disrespectful. -

Anybody else mad about our draft hats?

Top 10 Boneheaded Moves of NFL offseason
billsfan1959 replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I wasn't talking about the Jets. The Colts could have gotten more for that pick on draft night when Darnold fell to three. -
Top 10 Boneheaded Moves of NFL offseason
billsfan1959 replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I'm not sure the Jets should have been the team criticized in that deal. Had the Colts held that pick until draft night, they might have been able to get a better deal once Darnold slid to three. -
Comparing Josh Allen to EJ Manuel is such a superficial, lazy comparison.

Getting emotional and yelling? I'm surprised working with Colt McKoy and the Browns didn't turn Daboll into a serial killer...

theRALPH RANT - Bills Select Josh Allen
billsfan1959 replied to theRalph's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
It was a well put together breakdown; however, it wasn't phenomenal. Saying things like "Allen was pressured on 39 percent of his dropbacks in 2017, per ProFootballFocus, completing 52 percent of such throws while Rosen was pressured on 30 percent of his dropbacks and completed 69 percent of his throws" is a lazy recitation of a meaningless statistic. I did watch Allen's games and Rosen's as well. All pressure is not the same. I wrote this in another thread: I did not see Rosen face the same, consistent level of pressure as Allen did in almost every game in 2017, and, when he did, his completion % dropped, his decision making process worsened, his mechanics faltered, etc. By the way, Rosen completed less than 60% of his passes in 16 of his 30 college games, his completion % dropped from his first to second year, and he didn't get his career completion percentage over 60% until his third year. Those same kinds of stats are being used to proclaim Allen a potential bust. I am not a "homer" or an Allen apologist. He wasn't even my first choice - Rosen was (and I felt he had a lot of question marks as well). However, I see a lot of analysis that is wrapped around superficial, or less than complete, information when it comes to Allen. I'm sorry; however, IMHO, I didn't see 5 bad plays for every 1 good play that Allen made. -
Cover1 - Brian Daboll’s offense

Gotcha. We certainly have a lot of unknowns going into the season and it should be interesting.
