  1. Cautiously optimistic. I feel like we are a legitimate middle-of-the-pack type of team from the get go this year. Whereas at the start of last year I felt that we were one of the worst teams in franchise history. It really all comes down to Allen's progress. If he plays like he did the last handful of games last year, we should be an 8 or 9 win team. If he takes a nice step up in performance, I could see 10-12 wins.
  2. Travis Henry with better elusiveness? That's what I'm seeing.
  3. I am loving this draft so far. Let's dominate the trenches!
  4. Rosen can certainly sling it, but not sure how his body will hold up healthwise. I still think he could be a really great QB in the right situation. He's got the arm and pre-snap read ability you look for in an NFL QB. He just needs to work on his decision-making.
  5. As has been noted in the past, he's a very smart dude, lol. I'm sure he's made investments that have turned that $58 million into twice that by now.
  6. I've lived in LA, SF, DC, San Diego (and of course Buffalo) and I have never been embarrassed to rock my Bills gear. It's not even so much my love for the team as me wanting to rep the city of Buffalo itself. I'm proud to call myself a Buffalonian.
  7. It's an incident report and his name isn't even listed. I hate the guy for what he did to his woman in the past, but let's pump the breaks on labeling him a child abuser until there's more to report.
  8. Wow. Nice collection of players still available, especially on the D-line. Would also be excited by an Ajayi signing. He's coming off an ACL, but he's only 25.
  9. Way too soon to tell. OBJ strikes me as a ticking time bomb whose value would never be higher than it is right now. I probably would have looked to move him too.
  10. We need one, maybe two, more legit playmakers on offense and a good young DT. Also, I like Allen, but he's still pretty raw. I think we can win 7-8 games next year and then contend in '20-21.
  11. Cost us next to nothing to add a great locker room guy who churned out 700+ yards at a 4.6 ypc clip last year. I don't understand how anyone can knock the move.
  12. I don't understand why people are bagging on Witten's decision. Yeah, he lost a step later in his career, but he still put up catch totals of 73/64/77/69/63 in his last five years. It wasn't like there was a precipitous drop-off in production during his final season. He's had a full year to rest his body and he's still 2 years younger than Antonio Gates who is still in the league.
  13. Any guy that walks into one of those places knows exactly what the deal is and generally how those girls got there. This isn't a consensual business transaction with some independent online escort or pornstar (though I assume he was heavily involved in that too). This is akin to the sexpats that go to Thailand to dip into underage slaves. Sadly, he'll only get a slap on the wrist and be on his way. But make no mistake, despite his riches, he is morally bankrupt.
  14. It bothered me a lot back in the days when they were competitive. It would basically ruin my Sunday and Monday. But by the mid-00s I had started caring a whole lot less and could even stomach missing a game here or there if I had another engagement. After my first child was born in 2009, I didn't really care much at all. This year a loss didn't bother me in the slightest. And I basically forgot about it the second I turned off the game. I expect that to change when we actually field a true playoff caliber team again. Then I'm sure I'll have more of that "live and die with them" attitude.
  15. I live in SD and have seen him play a bunch. Definition of JAG.
  16. After watching this, it's beyond laughable that Nathan Peterman entered the season as the starting QB.
  17. Love it! I'd like to see us keep this cat on as an assistant coach too (if he has any interest) after he retires. Bright, hard working guy with great leadership qualities.
  18. Travis Scott's music is actually pretty damn interesting. I say that as a relatively square 40 year old white dude who listens to Rush. I'm much more interested in seeing him perform than Maroon 5.
  19. Gosh. Just think where we could have been drafting if Nathan Peterman had started the entire season!
  20. I was 13, home alone in Lancaster, listening to Van Miller and acting out the game with a rubber football. We had 2 season tickets, and it was usually my Mom and I attending the games, but I wasn't feeling well, so my Dad and Mom went together. I'm sure it was amazing in person, but I still feel there was something magical about listening to Van and putting my imagination to good use.
  21. I was distraught when we drafted him. I thought his upside was Jake Locker. Now, I love the kid. He's our John Elway.
  22. Wentz is their future. Foles is just a guy. They will regret it if they stick with him after this season.
