  1. Cam took a serious beating tonight, he took about a half-dozen shots to the head. That last one by Stewart was brutal and he'll be getting a letter in his locker next week from the commish. Really surprised they didn't check him into concussion protocol after that.
  2. Great game. Really impressed with Siemian. Had two rookie mistakes, but excellent feet in the pocket and a snap release. Denver D is still suffocating opponents.
  3. Football season is finally here!
  4. Well, you were certainly in the vocal minority then. I did an experiment and searched through the archives to see if my memory was playing tricks on me, and let's just say that the board was still very pro-Mario at the end of October (a few started to question his production). An entertaining read to say the least. I won't argue the lack of effort -- it clearly wasn't there at times, and he is on the wrong side of 30, but in the end it was the misuse of a dominant pass-rusher. I also don't think you can quantify a DE's play using tackle numbers (I've never seen it), even in a scheme that preaches gap responsibility.
  5. I'd like to know where all this vitriol towards Mario was when the the season was going on. You know, when they were actually playing. I certainly didn't see it on these boards in September and October. You would think 8 games would be enough to see that a player quit on his team, right? I recall people still discussing restructuring his contract as late as November. When it became apparent the season was over in December and Mario wasn't coming back -- that's when the pitchforks came out. Mario has taken plays off his entire career, we all knew that. It all came to a head when Pete Prisco released an article showing all the plays he took off, that whipped the board "analysts" into the quitter rant. He's played 10 seasons, under 7 different defensive coordinators, and he's flourished under all of them except for 1. You don't need to be a math major to figure out what's the constant and the variable in that equation.
  6. You're not under the illusion that these BN predictions will effect the play on the field, are you? I mean, for a lot of posters here, that would explain a lot.
  7. The Buffalo News is a subscription-based website, it's a completely different business model than say, Bleacher Report. No, every sports reporter at TBN is not making inflammatory predictions "for clicks." Just one is.
  8. Guys, I think Skurski just threw in the towel too...predicts 8-8 http://bills.buffalonews.com/2016/09/03/bills-preview-can-the-positives-outweigh-the-negatives/ Crazy how nearly every member of the media / analysts have this "syndrome." How odd is that?
  9. I guess the Vikings are in WIN NOW mode, huh?
  10. If I was a Vikings fan I would be livid.
  11. We're now a lock to win on the road?
  12. Joe Theismann's family had always pronounced their last name "THEES-man." Joe changed it to "THIGHS-man" at Notre Dame because he wanted it to rhyme with "Heisman." He ultimately lost the Heisman to Plunkett
  13. Well I just Googled that, and Urban Dictionary says that acronym means "Bareback Full Service." Not sure what you are getting at here.
  14. At least you got the wishful thinking part down.
  15. Because the benefits are widely exaggerated by wishful thinking fans. This team has changed coaches as much as any in the league, how often have you seen improvement in the 2nd year? But this year it will be different....because?
  16. Getting cut on game-day typically means you screwed up.
  17. This might be one of the worst posts I've ever seen on this forum. Literally every sentence you wrote is wrong lol. Every one. Okapis? Have you ever watched a hockey game? Is this a Crayonz alt that i'm not aware of?
  18. Don't understand the hand wringing about this. It was always going to happen eventually.
  19. Huge props go to that VW driver for keeping control and not veering into oncoming traffic.
  20. He was part of one of the funniest plays in Bills history when he knocked out Lonnie Johnson on that fake punt.
  21. You don't really have a choice, Doug.
  22. This is way too much hype for the next Drew Stafford.
  23. Just think how bad Jerry Sullivan feels, he's stuck in Rio and can't deliver his "I told you we should have cut him" column.
  24. He got caught up in celebrating our offseason championship.
