  1. nobody skinny... I want to see a mountain of a man come to the stage to don the jersey of America's team
  2. It looks like someone set up a living space in a real estate office.
  3. Atlanta was winning 28-3 late in the 2nd half of the Super Bowl. After blowing most of the lead, they were still up 8 points with only about 2:30 to go in the game, with a 1st and 10 on the NE 23 (ish) after a crazy catch by Julio Jones. They could have taken 3 knees and kicked the FG and they are SB champs as they would be up 11 with less than 2 to go and NE with 0 timeouts. As it was, NE tied the game right at the very end, and needed every second to do it. Even if they missed the FG they burn time or timeouts and still win anyway. But being the Falcons, they lost. That's all anyone should ever know about the Falcons.
  4. Rodgers doesn't seem affected by the weather in Green Bay, nor did Brady in NE or the 90's Bills offense in Buffalo. or Favre in Green Bay, or Big Ben in Pittsburgh, or even Mahomes in KC, where it can get very cold. Elway did OK in Denver. Heck, Peyton Manning, the "dome QB" had his best statistical season ever (and the best of any QB in NFL history) playing in Denver. 5,477 yards and 55 TD. Imagine if the weather didn't slow him down that season! Snow and cold are overrated as factors that would limit our offense. Wind is the real issue. How many "snow games" do the Bills even have each year, if you think about it? In November it's just as likely to be 50 as it is to be 25 and snowy. Probably more likely. Now for other teams, it's certainly a mental thing, the snow and the cold. But for home teams up north having an open air stadium does not limit them on any type of consistent basis. A dome is not worth the money UNLESS it allows the team to charge fans more for a more comfortable, controlled environment AND brings a Super Bowl to town. Even then, the extra cost is so astronomical that it doesn't make much sense. A dome is 100% about the fans, not the players or the game.
  5. Levi better hit the BBQ stands and ice cream parlors if he is going to play DT for America's Team! If the DT doesn't come in at at LEAST 330 pounds before we get him on the Buffalo pizza diet I'm not interested...
  6. That makes sense... The move out of SD was a mess. End up being a tenant in the Rams stadium that the Rams don't even want around...
  7. Here's an idea: imagine LIVING in an NFL stadium. condos with a view of the field.... You don't even have to leave home to watch the game at your team's stadium! It would be like living in a luxury box, with a private entrance so fans couldn't invade your apartment.
  8. Lots of Bills related comedy lately, which is great to see! Seems like a tight group who enjoys playing together, which is huge in sports. Plus, the organization itself obviously has a bit of a sense of humor with the facemask video. You can tell they enjoy their work. It's such an easy team to root for. This season when they go all the way I predict a lot of (happy) tears around here!
  9. Hopefully Beane is looking for the second coming of Ted Washington in this draft.
  10. The Chargers don't even seem like a real NFL team. Are there actual fans? I know every team can't have a great and storied fanbase, but this team played in a half empty 30,000 seat soccer stadium recently.
  11. If you hit on the QB, everyone is a genius, from the team owner on down. Your team owner is savvy (and even attended some practices and really liked ______), your GM is a mastermind, your head coach is a top guy in the business, your coordinators are always candidates for head coaching jobs, your skill players are making plays and getting paid, your fans love the team and players, you're selling merchandise, your team is on primetime a few times a year, and you're going to at least be in the conversation as a contender for the next 15, maybe even 20 years. Nobody will care about the picks you traded to get the guy in the above scenario. and Tampa Bay has been a really stacked team for a while. Their GM has done an amazing job of drafting and signing free agents for several years, so as much as I'm not a Brady fan it was nice to see that get rewarded. But Tampa is the perfect example... loaded roster that kept going 8-8 (ish) until a real QB showed up.
  12. only 306 pounds... are we looking for a WR or a DT?! Sign me up for one of the giant DT's in this year's draft!
  13. LOL I'm just kidding around. If NE lost every game they played 51-0 I would still watch every snap to enjoy it! I do want to see how hyped and melodramatic the Brady return to NE this season will be, though. Jimmy G being the QB there just adds to it.
  14. Jimmy G to NE MUST HAPPEN! For one, I want to see NE games be more than just us beating them down for a change. It's a little bit sad to see what they've become. Two, it adds even more to the Brady/Belichick Bowl this season!
  15. Harris definitely seems like a "process" type guy. Isn't he the player who drove across the country when his flight was cancelled just to support his teammates on their pro day?
  16. How much does he get paid for being on the practice squad? Maybe it's a nice payday and a chance to live his dream. He's an NFL player, regardless of whether he is on the active roster or the practice squad. I checked Spotrac but it's all over the place with his contracts. It looks like Wade has at least made $200,000+ over 2 years in the program, plus he is in the NFL.
  17. is it me, or has Romo's voice gotten sort of rough the past year or so? always sounds like he has vocal issues
  18. Now we can draft a Norte Dame guard at 30 and a giant mountain of a DT in the 2nd round! This is great news!
  19. This is why football is such a fun and popular sport. There are so many totally different ways to play this game. I personally enjoy seeing teams take on entirely different personalities and styles. The Ravens have a way that they want to play football and win games, and it works most of the time with Lamar, judging by W/L record. When you play them it's an entirely different type of game, and that's fun for fans I think. Probably for a lot of players too.
  20. It's simple to me. The Bills hit the jackpot with Beane, Mcdermott, and Allen. They threaded the needle. It's so rare in sports, and it's a reason I would actually be surprised if the Bills don't WIN a Super Bowl or 2 over the next decade. This doesn't happen very often. Look around the NFL. How many teams have a top-notch GM, HC, and QB? New coaches and GM's usually don't work out, as we've seen here with these teams. But it's true all over the league. How many "next big thing" coaches have been fired just in the NFL after a couple of seasons? There is a TON of luck involved in picking the right people for your franchise, and that's OK. Everyone is great, wonderful, well-respected, etc. Few actually pan out. The Sabres have been on the exact other end of that luck. They have squandered so much draft capital it is truly stunning. Couple that with awful coaching and reckless GM's and you have what you see there.
  21. YES! A big DT in the draft would make this a great offseason.
  22. I would have loved a 2 year deal here, just in case he has an insane season In terms of the player, good signing, though!
  23. Bills currently have the best QB in the division, and it's not even close. NE has an all-time great coach, so they could always be dangerous. They finished 7-9 with their entire defense opting out and almost no talent on offense. I wouldn't write them off. NE is now the pre-Josh Allen Bills. Chasing the top team but without a QB to match up.
  24. Love it! I hope it's a 2 year deal at least so Daboll can't take him wherever he goes next offseason!
