  1. When watching football I max out at yelling profanities.

     

    However, I recently was experience interference in Bluetooth and wireless USB signals that I had been unable to pinpoint and I lost my shat and repeatedly smashed my keyboard on my desk 4-5 times. Keys went flying everywhere. Honestly, it felt a bit therapeutic. Good thing I use the same $30 keyboard/mouse combo. Went and bought a new set at Office Depot and continued to troubleshoot. After cleaning up the mess of course...

     

    I think the difference to me is that I cannot control what the Bills or their opponents do, but I should be able to control my own ability to troubleshoot a PC issue, so it bothered me more.

     

    Logitech K360 in case anyone was interested. :)

    I'm a total Josh fan boy but he deserved his. I still love the attitude anyway.

     

    But Moss, WTH did he do? 

     

    He threw the ball at the guy who ran him out of bounds. The ref just saw the ball come flying at the player. He didn't see that Moss wasn't even facing that way and just threw the ball behind him...and hit the player. This goes to the point where a flurry of unsportsmanlike conduct calls can change how refs view a team/play.

    Someone ahead of us in the waiver wire will claim him. SF comes to mind

     

    https://www.prideofdetroit.com/2019/9/1/20843224/nfl-waiver-wire-rules-priority-order-practice-squad-2019#:~:text=Players are “waived” if they,practice squads%2C if eligible).

     

    Players are “waived” if they have fewer than four years of experience in the NFL. Those players are placed on the waiver wire and subject to claims.

  4. He is going to want to start. He isn't going to sign here to fight with Davis for WR4, with a possible temp role as WR3 with Brown out. I also think that could hurt Davis' development as he would move to a reserve role.

     

    However, if Brown is expected to miss significant time, then I might be a bit softer to the idea, but I don't recall hearing that...

    So Lamar Jackson is now on top 10 running backs ? 

     

    Not sure if he belongs with the RBs, but he is def not top 10 statistically as a QB. 25th in yds, 26th in comp %, 17th in TDs and 18th in QBR. Not bad for a QB in a run first/option play offense, but there is no rationale for inclusion in top 10 QB in the league.

     

    Even if we look at rushing, he only has 3 rushing TDs on the season.

    Gonna be a blood bath. No way the Bills can stop the Chiefs. Our defense made the titans look like a good offense minus two starters wrs. Our only hope is to out score them. The offense looked like ***** too. Allen regressed, oline was bad in all facets, wr drops, etc...I calling for a 38 to 17 loss. Hope I'm wrong. 

     

    Get a bucket to catch all that sky...

  7. His tweet was not ambiguous or confusing. #readingcomprehension

     

    I am not fully on board with the 'they have 2 more days to game plan than we do so they have a massive advantage' train, but have fun on that ride.

     

    Biggest issue in my opinion is day by day, they don't know who to game plan for. i am sure they are focusing on TEN, but I am also sure that someone in the building has been frantically prepping KC film as well. To another poster's point, I almost hope there is another positive, so the schedule can lock down and the team and get back to normal practice/game prep as they would on any normal week.

  8. In years past I would never draft Bills payers in fantasy. Partly because of the homer comments and partly because very few were statistically good due to the teams lack of success and troubles at QB. Every once in a while I might pick up their D or their RB, but certainly not one of their WRs or QB.

     

    Its 2020. I didn't expect to be watching football. I also didn't expect to be in a fantasy league. I drafted Allen and Diggs. Being excited about the Bills winning AND fantasy football success normally don't go together, but hot damn.

     

    Unrelated but crazy; Matt Ryan has similar stats as Allen in the first two weeks. 700+ yards and 6 TDs. The Falcons are 0-2.

    Mayfield wasn't in a stable situation his rookie year and did well.    Darnold, sure.

     

    I wasn't looking at one year, but thanks.

     

    Mayfield, Darnold, and Rosen all experienced dysfunction/turnover at the GM and or HC/coaching staff level and I would grade their 'success' (over 2 years and YTD) as markedly below Jackson and Allen. 

     

    Edited to correct "3 years"

    Reading their boards, they have decent takes for fans in their position. Pretty much: Burn it down and put it in Joe Douglas's hands.

     

    My only knock is cutting bait on Darnold too soon. But after 3 years in that dumpster fire, I'm not sure he'll be salvageable. Too bad, too. Kid had talent and potential.

     

    If you think about it, of the 5 QBs taken in the first round, only two ended up in stable team management situations; Allen and Jackson. I don't think it is a coincidence that those are the two that have had the best success thus far.

  11. I read about 50 of the 73 or so pages of their gameday thread. I love seeing the progression of emotions from hopeful arrogance to crushing depression and defeat. Sadly, reading many of the comments does ring back to several years where we were in that boat.

     

    SARs did show up toward the end of the thread saying something about how the victory means nothing, we should have beaten them by more and Allen will injured in the next week or two, etc.
