Take A Minute to Appreciate This Forum
Rocky Landing replied to Shaw66's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Very true. I have lived in Los Angeles since '91, but born and raised in Rochester. There is a bar in town where the LA Bills Backers meet (Buzby's) that I'll go to a couple times a year. LA is a shallow crap-hole, and it's an enormous relief to be surrounded by Western New Yorkers from time to time. -
Take A Minute to Appreciate This Forum

From time to time, I will go on other fan sites- the Pats* forum, Dolphins, Jets, Rams, and Chargers are several that I will frequent. None come even close to this site. The ease of use, the layout, the links and its efficiency are all outstanding, and better than every other football fan I have seen. But, what really sets this place apart is the knowledge base, discussion, and debate. Maybe it's the 17-year drought that weeded out the bandwagoners, the high standard of moderation, the constant effort of some of our more dedicated posters, or a combination of all of it, but this site is truly remarkable. -
Frankly, I believe that having a three-way competition at QB is a mistake. We've been down that road recently (remember EJ/Cassel/Tyrod?), and what we end up with by the end of TC is a starter that hasn't had enough reps with the first team to develop a decent chemistry. At this point, Peterman should be a camp arm, and not much more.

Start Allen from Day 1/ QB competition
Rocky Landing replied to BuffaloBud420's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I came to the conclusion long ago that there are more educated, accurate, prescient, and informed opinions on this site than there are in the likes of Steve Wyche, Marc Sessler, Dan Hanzus, and the rest of the NFL Network talking heads that claim to follow all 32 teams, but spend about 2% of their efforts on understanding the Bills. To be honest, I like it that way. -

I like the look of this roster/Defense
Rocky Landing replied to RPbillsfan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Well, hopefully their youth translates into stamina, as I fear they are likely to be on the field for the majority of each game. -
My brother used to be a pothead, well into adult life. Then, I was visiting him one day (we live on opposite ends of the country), and I noticed that he wasn't smoking. I asked him about it, and he replied, "well, I just realized one day that I didn't like it any more, and two years later, I quit." He's an example of a marijuana addict, but I've known people who accomplished a lot, and smoke weed without issue. Karlos seems like someone who needs to quit it entirely, like my brother was. Manziel is making a go at a career in the CFL, and he certainly has his demons. I hope Karlos can pull something together. Of course, talented RBs have a lot less value than talented QBs.

Such a shame. He had so much potential, and was such a good compliment to Shady. And he was fun to watch. Pot really affects different people in different ways. Ricky Williams, still a marijuana advocate, and user, is still in phenomenal, physical shape. I wonder if there is any hope for Karlos?

Josh Allen. Let's get real people!
Rocky Landing replied to Returntoglory's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I don't respond well when someone refers to me as "people." -
Mayfield: "I just want to come out and give it 110%, each and every day, and be the best player I can be and help my team win." Darnold: "I just want to come out and give it 110%, each and every day, and be the best player I can be and help my team win." Allen: "I just want to come out and give it 110%, each and every day, and be the best player I can be and help my team win." Rosen: "I should've been first!" Jackson: "I just want to come out and give it 110%, each and every day, and be the best player I can be and help my team win."

I may be just about alone in this opinion, but I loved TO when he was here. I remember him sprinting down field to block for (I think?) Stevie Johnson, and getting him another 10+ yards. (I wish I could remember which game that was.) He put it all out there on the field when he was playing. So, what if? What if he was actually healthy, and fit enough, at age 44, to be productive? What if he were able to beat out whatever scrub ends up at the bottom of our miserable WR depth? What if he could contribute to special teams? None of this is likely, of course. Neither is it likely he would fit into McD's "process." But, IMO, it'd be fun to watch.
