Diehard fan going back to the '80s, but I've only owned one jersey a Moulds one in the hideous early 00s style. It was a gift from my Mom and I don't think I ever wore it in public. Always felt weird about the idea of wearing a jersey with another man's name on the back.

Clear path to a roster spot for Tavon now as our primary KR.

It's sad that people delight in the misfortune of others. The identity politics wars have turned so many Americans, on both sides of the political aisle, into really despicable humans. Having said that, Griner did make an incredibly stupid decision and she will now pay the price for it, same as that Marc Fogel dude who is being gulag'd for 16 years. You don't have to like or agree with all of the laws of another country, but you damn well best abide by them as a visitor.

Ruh roh! Given the improvement in Miami and the New Jersey (and elsewhere in the AFC), Pats are looking like a 5-6 win team, IMO.

Lol. I was thinking they need to find the ugliest male ogre possible to give him massages going forward. Maybe have the masseuse wear only a tiny loin cloth and periodically *whoops* "release" on him.

At least I can understand why Moon sees things this way, because they were definitely true in his time and his career was initially held back because of lack of opportunity. Moon paved the way so that these kids today didn't have to deal with that level of racist BS. But I just have to shake my head at guys like Mahomes or a Lebron James going to the race card when they've been universally praised, loved and worshipped their entire adult lives. There would be zero talk/criticism about Murray if he was clearly putting in the study time or Lamar if he was still producing at or near his MVP level instead of the mediocrity we've seen the past two years Peyton Manning was trashed by media and fans most of his final season as "washed up" (same for Ben), Arod is consistently criticized for his attitude and lack of postseason success, mid tier guys like Tanny, Cousins, Carr are constantly facing criticism/skepticism about their abilities, and we know what Josh went through. Every QB faces criticism when they fail to produce relative to the expectations that they (aka their past play) have set for themselves. Every single one.

Thanks for the link. Should be interesting/fun to see how both Trubisky and Daboll progress this year in their new situations.

Of course, Miami's fans have reason for optimism. I admitted that they're improved. I'm taking issue with the ridiculous level of trash talk in those twitter threads that were posted. Sure, they have a right to run their mouths, but I think they'll be in for another rude awakening. And how could KC not view Buffalo as a threat in the AFC? We beat them handily in their building in October and it took a near miracle for them to escape at home in the playoffs. Viewing us as a "threat" doesn't mean that they are afraid of us or ducking us, it just means that we are a legitimate contender who could easily end their (or the Bengals) season. I don't understand how this could even be argued at this point given our performance over the past two years and what we've added in the offseason.

Miami will be improved, no doubt, but I'm LJL at the bravado coming from the Fins fans on twitter and elsewhere. Holy hell those guys are delusional if they think the Bills are somehow overrated or some paper tiger. For the most part, we've beaten the absolute piss out of them in the Tua era.

Prayers up for Dion. As for the troll, I'm not inclined to call for bannings, but this guy is an exception.

Funny coincidence, meeting Kilgore like that. Honestly, all sorts of folks drive Uber. I know some lawyers that do it just to chat with folks and decompress for a few hours/week. Lots of retirees too who drive here and there to add to their vacation funds or grandkids college funds or whatever. I wouldn't assume anything about a given driver - there's a nonzero chance that they are in a significantly better financial situation than you or I am. 😁

Great story. Very entertaining!

I'm just saying we have a surplus of players who can man the slot. Crowder has had a solid career, but I wouldn't call it "excellent" by any means. He's also missed a bunch of games to injury in the past few years. If Shakir can essentially be a Crowder clone, but healthy and 6 years younger, I don't have a problem with the Bills prioritizing another player who provides a skill set that he doesn't. Kumerow is a key special teamer and provides a bigger outside receiving option. Obviously, I'd prefer an upgrade to Kumerow as well.

Shakir just looks like a vet already. Looks as if he could seamlessly slot into Beasley's role this season. I too think one of Crowder or McKenzie could be a surprise cut, especially with Cook already looking like the receiving threat we hoped he would. If Shakir is ready for a big role, I have no problem with us cutting bait from Crowder to keep a special teams ace like Kumerow, or alternatively, signing a bigger veteran outside receiver (are any of these left at this point?).

I too am piling the table with Coke... edit: darn autocorrect

How was my statement "disingenuous?" I don't think the word means what you think it does. Of course, broken ribs take time to heal. No one is saying otherwise. But your level of activity during the recovery period comes down to your pain tolerance. These aren't dangerous injuries. They heal on their own.

I broke my ribs twice in the past 2 years in separate mountain biking accidents. The first time I was actually able to golf later the same day, and I continued to golf and road bike during my recoveries from each of the injuries. I think I was basically completely recovered in about 4-5 weeks both times. It really just comes down to your pain tolerance.

I'm a UCLA grad and can confirm that they have very good dorm food. There was a reason I went from 155 to 175 pounds in 18 months and it wasn't all a result of my freshman weightlifting efforts.

ACL and then cancer? Poor guy has had a tough year. Fingers crossed for a speedy recovery.

They look cool.

Rosen has always had poor pocket mobility and awareness going back to his UCLA days. Nice clean pocket and he's great, throws a beautiful ball, etc. But get a little pressure in his face and he becomes a turnover machine. He's never improved a bit in that regard and it's why he's (almost) washed out of the league.

Well that settles it. Case Keenum is our new 1:00PM starting quarterback.

Don't worry. Josh will just throw for 7000 yards.

The Chiefs had almost +100 YAC against us in the divisional playoff game (227-135). It's probably why despite putting up similar passing numbers, most fans came away from that game thinking Josh Allen was the better quarterback. Mahomes got almost 2/3 of his yardage from YAC. It would be nice if we could get more of those easy yards this year.

Can the Rams stand the rain in Bobby Brown's absence?
