Game Postponed! - To be played Monday at 4:30pm
WickedGame replied to phypon's topic in The Stadium Wall
Yeah, don’t ya hate when people overreact? -
So, just another Look At Me Post?

I’m just grateful we don’t have that schmo who does color commentary for the Bengals. I listened to a Bengals broadcast during a long drive home…possibly the worst radio broadcaster I’ve heard in my life. Bungled calls, relentless cliches, dated references…just brutal to hear. Nice guy, but sounded like an old-timer who should have been put out to pasture a decade or more ago.

Last I saw police hadn’t released the identity. Have we confirmed the legitimacy of this GoFundMe page?

Nothing on this schedule scares me. We’re not going 17-0. Nor does this look like a schedule that leaves us 9-8. Every game on this list is winnable.
-
Y’all realize we wouldn’t play Miami if they beat the Chiefs, right? The lowest remaining see plays the highest remaining seed, so the Bills would play the winner of the 4/5 if we beat the Steelers, while the #6 Dolphins would play the Ravens. I want the Chiefs. In Buffalo.

Is it time to put out an Amber Alert on Dalton Kincaid?
WickedGame replied to FireChans's topic in The Stadium Wall

But were there any deers? He’s a free agent, right? As long as the cap hit isn’t too high…git ‘er done, Beane!

Man, I love being a Bills fan, but y’all sure know how to get in the Christmas spirit.

This will be the first game I miss in 27 years. Thanks NFL
WickedGame replied to Heavy Kevi's topic in The Stadium Wall
Here’s a thought: Go outside. Take a walk. Visit a museum. Call an old friend. Volunteer. Help a stranger. Daydream. #1 - Perspective. It’s a football game. I love the Bills, too, but there’s more to life. Don’t let missing a sporty ball game ruin your week. #2 - This feels like an easy fix. Spend a few bucks. If the game is available on Peacock, pay $6. If you can watch a game every Sunday for decades, you can afford $6. If it’s not available because of some weird TV issue, drive somewhere it IS available. A bar. Another city. Whatever. If you care that much (and again…perspective), then prove it and drive three hours to watch it in another market. Don’t rant about the lengths to which you’ve gone to keep the streak alive and then tell me you can’t make a road trip with a buddy. #3 - Rage against a different machine. The world is full of problems in need of fixing and people who are hurting. You wanna stand for something? Stand your ground on something that matters. Help make the world a better place. If your moral line in the sand is “The NFL and the cable company screwed me out of my god-given right to free sports,” you’re not holding a moral compass…you’re just throwing a tantrum. You wanna fight for the little guy? Fight for the guy who doesn’t complain about apps because a phone is a luxury he can’t afford. Fight for the guy who wakes up at 4am to take the crosstown bus to work so he can give his kids a better life, not the guy who wakes up at 4am to watch a football game. Fight for someone who’s medicine is too expensive, no someone who’s entertainment is too expensive. Don’t worry: If you miss the game, we’ll have another one next week. I’ve talked to the league about this and they’ve assured me we’ll have at least one more chance to see the Bills play this year. -
Chance of Playoffs now, according to NYT simulator
WickedGame replied to Ray Stonada's topic in The Stadium Wall
There is a scenario where if the Bills beat Miami, they win the division and if they lose, they miss the playoffs altogether. Which is to say the “percentage” chance to make the playoffs means virtually nothing. I don’t want to be in a scenario where we’re 64% to make the playoffs and 50% to win the division, but lose the game and it drops to 0%. Just. Beat. Dallas. -
Al Michaels out for NFL playoffs on NBC in move he wasn't expecting
WickedGame replied to chongli's topic in The Stadium Wall
In a sign of the times, Al Michaels has been replaced by AI Michaels. Nobody notices the difference. -
Calling it now: Bills are going to at least reach the AFCCG
WickedGame replied to Alphadawg7's topic in The Stadium Wall
I put $25 on the Bills to win the AFC Championship at +1400 before they lost to the Eagles. I stand by that bet. It ain’t a big wager, but I like our chances. -
Cover 1 breakdown of the Joe Brady Offense
WickedGame replied to Scott7975's topic in The Stadium Wall
The difference between Dorsey and Brady is like the difference between someone who cooks by following a recipe vs. someone who simply knows how to cook. Sure, the guy who reads the recipe step by step as he’s cooking can make an adequate dish…but he could also botch it because he’s busy reading step 3 while his unwatched pot is boiling over. Plus, his dish won’t be very original. And heaven forbid things get off schedule or go off script. A seasoned chef simply knows how to cook…knows how ingredients work together, when to adjust the heat, when to add a pinch of salt. And he can improvise and adapt…he can adjust on the fly or put a totally unique twist on the dish. He has command of his kitchen at all times. Dorsey wasn’t awful at cooking up an offense…it just felt like he was learning how to do the job on the fly.- 24 replies

Bench him. Make him get his god***n head screwed on straight. He needs to quit acting like a shooter in a slump…you’re not gonna shoot your way out of the funk.

This is actually a really good battle between the Bills defense and the Bills offense.

By long-term, I don’t mean 10 years. Even five-year stability and competence at safety would be good for me. Essentially, what we got from Hyde and Poyer. But your point is well taken at CB. I just hope that’s not our answer. Or if it is, I hope he proves worth it. While I’m not expecting another All-Pro to walk through the door, merely “adequate” might be a letdown, considering we all felt we were a CB2 upgrade over Levi Wallace away from a top end secondary. I’d hate to see us retreat to the middle across that position group.
-
It would cut down on his holding penalties…
-
Just a wild guess here, but anyone think Rasul Douglas could be a long-term answer at safety? We obviously have to replace at least one, maybe two. Douglas has a fairly high cap hit next year, but if the team likes what he brings, they could lower that with a 2- to 3-year extension. Poyer and Hyde were both converted CBs…there’s precedent. Thoughts?

I’d like to see them start bundling losses.

Is the MLB Competition Over Before It Started?
WickedGame replied to JackKemp's topic in The Stadium Wall
Right. My point exactly. OP wants to moan that we’ve replaced Edmunds with a backup instead of a starter. But what the heck else were we supposed to replace him with? Don’t get me wrong, I think Edmunds had value. It’s just that his value was primarily size rather than skill. Now we’ve replaced him with less size and as-yet-unproven skill. Count me among those who believe you can’t pay everyone and we’ve paid the right people. I’ll trust the veteran leadership in our back seven to compensate for what we lost in Edmunds, and I’m grateful we’re not over-investing in MLB in a pass-first league. -
Is the MLB Competition Over Before It Started?
WickedGame replied to JackKemp's topic in The Stadium Wall
Sure. Or paid the guy who was here. But we all wanted to crucify that guy anyway. So…31 other candidates league wide…fewer if you only count those who played MLB in a 4-3…and how many were available as a free agent? Bills fans just like having something to complain about. That’s all this is. -
Is the MLB Competition Over Before It Started?
WickedGame replied to JackKemp's topic in The Stadium Wall
Phrases like this crack me up. Oh, so Dodson was a “career backup,” you say? Isn’t that because the guy he’s competing to replace was the starter? Come on, Beane! Find us a career starter to replace our…starter. -
Sure. But the box could also say it’s a peanut butter sandwich if it wants. The box is just a marketer telling you something you want to hear to help you part with your money. It’s unlicensed knock-off crap, if you ask me. But whatever. Who the heck buys a Josh Allen puzzle anyway?
