  1. Cool. To my mind, that makes Allen's accomplishment that much more impressive. I read elsewhere, recently, that Allen had the longest throw through the air, last season. 68.8 yards through the air, for a completion.
  2. He was probably throwing a cellphone.
  3. Personally, I hope he plays long enough for us to beat them twice in a season. And, I hope (although doubt) it will be this season.
  4. He hasn't proven that?
  5. And, what was the psi? If Brady decided to play for the Bills, I would throw up.
  6. Interesting thing about that link: IF Brady* did, indeed, throw a ball at 61mph, the only QB ever drafted (at least since 2007) who could throw it faster at the combine was... Josh Allen. That 62mph was the fastest ever recorded at the combine. One thing I wonder about that metric, though: What are the circumstances for that stat? Is it literally, "see how fast you can throw it?" Or, are they running a drill, and measuring other things as well as speed of the ball? What is the context for the throw?
  7. I think the votes represent the reality.
  8. I agree with this. I assumed that barring some really great, and completely unlikely trade scenario, the foolishness of trading Foster was a given.
  9. Wait... Brown, and Beasley might equal three WRs? Regardless, what's the point in looking at it like this? Every team, every year, might lose one, or more WRs for myriad reasons, be it production, injury, FA, or what have you. Be that as it may, the draft at WR is reportedly very deep next year.
  10. I don't entirely agree with this. If the Bills carry six WRs (likely), then McKensie has a decent chance because of his special teams acumen alone. In fact, with Roberts probably seeing few offensive snaps as the primary kick returner, we could carry seven. But, that far down the depth chart, players have to play ST, and McKensie has proven that. He's also shown quite a bit of versatility, which fits well with Daboll's offense. All that being said, I suspect he doesn't make the 53, but I don't hold much certainty. I like this, although I would put Duke in front of Sills, and I wouldn't omit Bolden Jr.
  11. I wonder if, with an upgraded O-line, DiMarco gets used in a blocking role for Shady the way Jerome Felton was supposed to do for us, like Felton did with Adian Peterson in Minnesota? Peterson made a lot of yards running behind Felton. Shady needs a good supporting cast to be effective (like he had in '16. '17). Perhaps we'll see DiMarco take more of that role? I also have this weird desire to see McCoy take a lateral from Gore, or visa versa, at some point during the season. I know that probably won't happen, but it'd be cool to see.
  12. And also, since there’s almost no contact in training camp anymore and almost less in preseason games, the only way Shady gets cut is if he shows no mental or emotional interest in playing anymore. I highly doubt that’ll be the case, but I don’t know the man personally.
  13. Love McKenzie. Love his attitude, his energy. He had great burst. He was an instant upgrade when we brought him in last season. I really hope he makes the team because I am a fan. But, I suspect (and he probably does, too) that between Roberts and Beasley, his role might be diminished, and he is likely on the bubble. Some others on here have suggested that he is more suited to Daboll’s offense than some of the other bubble players he is competing with. We’ll see, I guess. But, I imagine that when it comes to the #4 and up, they are looking primarily at special teams ability, and growth potential, probably in that order.
  14. That’s really the same as saying, “field position is useless in today’s NFL,” which is, of course, ludicrous.
  15. It has always struck me that PFF really only looks at numbers. This is valuable as a resource, but if one only looks at numbers, you will only gather a very incomplete picture. This ranking looks like what happens when you only consider numbers. But, football is so much more than that.
  16. I suppose this may be true. If it is, I would give Perry the edge as he has been a special teams standout during his career— not just in kick returns, but in versatility. And, I would guess that when it came to offense, he would outperform Yeldon there, too.
  17. Gay sex. But, there’s absolutely nothing wrong with that.
  18. There are quite a few on here, and in the media, that are just assuming that Yeldon makes the 53, and I don't see it. He really doesn't seem like the McD type process guy. But, however you slice it, and regardless of where he was drafted, 465 rushing yards in four years is unspectacular. And, apparently, his attitude sucks. https://www.al.com/sports/2018/12/jaguars-tom-coughlin-scolds-disrespectful-tj-yeldon-leonard-fournette.html
  19. The thing of it is that Ronin will egregiously, and willfully misrepresent things—stats, plays, records, etc.— to push his crusade. He’s utterly intellectually dishonest. And he’s constantly pushing the narrative that those who disagree with him are “taking it personally,”or “can’t handle discussion,” or “sorry you can’t get on with your life” (ha actually said that to somebody!) All of which would lead me to believe that he really wants to get under your skin. Its at the top of his agenda.
