You own a Bills sports bar. For somebody trying to take the moral high ground you were going to try and yoink a consumer product for free to use for your business. Listen man, I pirate all sorts of stuff. I am not above it. But this bit of whining about the cost is hilariously disjointed.

Megatron was an absolute stud. But there is a reason I said Moss was the most talented WR ever and not the best WR ever. Other guys have gotten close to Moss or surpassed him based on consistent working as close as possible to their ceiling. But I don't think there was a better WR in the history of the sport than try hard Randy Moss.

Combine stuff is neatly on stathead now. PFR keeps moving stuff to their paid data. But it’s fairly cheap. https://stathead.com/football/player-season-finder.cgi?request=1&positions[]=wr&height_min=75 If you want to get real freaky you can just Vlookup and narrow it down with a second query by games, yards, TD’s etc. https://stathead.com/sharing/IEHp4

Once it’s in excel you should be able to filter.

Pull a CSV file from pro football reference.

Randy Moss is the most talented WR to ever play the position. End thread.

A couple of Lebron references in this thread. I think there’s a huge difference between the two. I think Lebron believes he’s been literally attacked 90% of the time he flops on the basketball court and legitimately deserves 35 free throws after every sneeze. Whereas I think Allen knows there’s a bit of showmanship that goes into calls. He knows a tiny shove or face mask bump isn’t a flag on its own. But if he sends himself flying we get 15 yards and a first. I don’t think Allen’s flops are all that different from his trash talking. There’s something childlike about it. I laugh at it all the time.

That’s by far the biggest and maybe only plus from games on fox.

To transition to the first commercial break they played “Happy Hour Hero” by moe. I knew then that the script was written, and it was a Buffalo win for sure. For those of you who are uncultured, moe. is a popular in the jam band scene. They formed while in undergrad at UB. They always rep Buffalo well on the road.

Weirdly enough I find myself both disliking Cowherd and liking him at the same time. I enjoy listening now and again. I think he is a reasonable dude. But his takes have a tendency to be super dumb too

The Jets face mask bump always makes me laugh. Every. Single. Time.

The Chargers are the Sabres of the NFL.

You didn't mention anything about Douglas. I would be shocked if the Bills did not extend him.

Unsure if I took crazy pills today, but wasn't in rumored that the NFL was trying to give the Bills the 2024 Madrid game next year? Could this mean Buffalo to Brazil?

Totally agree. Going to the other end of the spectrum like hockey with 82 games, when you play sporadically it is easy to tune out if they are bad or even mediocre.

I was just in Porto Allegre a year or two ago. Brazil is really the haves and the have nots. Some areas of cities are amazing, but they can get very bad very quickly. Rio is that way. One block great, the other super dangerous. Foreign currency is king. I took 40 mile Uber and it cost me $7USD. Went to a really nice sushi place, to stuff our faces and the whole thing, cocktails, apps, deserts, etc. came out to $40 with an American sized tip. If you are an upper middle class American, you can live like the super wealthy in any expensive city. I was told not to even pull my phone out in public. We got lucky, and were able to find a sweet Air BnB in a super great (wealthy) walkable neighborhood. Lots of shops, outdoor dinning, bopping around to do. We were able to spend a lot of late nights eating outside on patios, drinking, and making friends with some locals. But again. This was because we were 1. a bit lucky, and 2. my brother in law is from there so we had a very good lay of the land. With pretty major cities like Rio and Sao Paolo, people forget that Brazil is in fact a 3rd world country. For further context, if you are a Brazilian citizen you have to apply for a travel visa to get into Mexico. That is right, even Mexico is like, "meh, maybe we check you out before you come in". Really surprised that cancelled Spain for this. With some better scheduling, the addition of another bye, Europe feels like a place the NFL could plant some roots with a handful of teams. I don't understand the long term plan for Brazil in particular.

The Thursday games are the worst. Health aside (but a huge concern!), the Thursday product sucks. The short week makes the whole thing terrible. I would prefer Saturday, Sunday, Monday, with no team playing Monday then Saturday. The sport is way too hard on the body to shorten the time between games, keep people healthy, and put out a good product. Watch them add a Tuesday/Wednesday game and then make all practice optional.

I have no issue with NBC moving on from Al Michaels in general. But you don’t do it mid season, and you don’t do it without talking to him first. The guy is an absolute legend. Shame on NBC for doing him dirty. For Al’s sake I hope Amazon gets the SB at some point and they let Al tell NBC to eat shirt on live TV, then retires.

Not to derail the thread, but this is where we get into the weeds when we talk about Allen v Dorsey/Brady. It is certainly possible that’s exactly what happened and the QB missed the read/mark. But we don’t know unless we are in the film room with the staff. You got to see a guy open by 15 yards in the endzone though.

Wins and losses. Also I thought Josh played well against Philly. Less well here. Granted his athleticism and freakish physiology also bailed us out at times too.

It isn't going to be a 50/50 crowd.

Well...if he sat next to Joe Brady, then my god. To the moon! This line reads like "I noticed Dunne said the Bills wouldn't give him credentials, sounds like there is an opening."
