Given that eventually all governors are not going to allow fans which is almost certain (not me wanting it just a reality at this point), there won’t be a competitive advantage for any team except maybe the Charger who must have felt like they played 16away games last year.

wasn’t that a song Ghost, “to the left to the left, to the right to the right, now slide baby slide”. That’s as close as you’ll hear me singing unless you want to break you’re eardrum.

I stand corrected GB from last year. Thank you as always.

Greg and GB, well said. It is daunting how well the Steelers have done for basically 50 years. That’s insane. Another team not as winning, but nevertheless a winning team is Denver. They just have winning cultures and if we keep McBeane together for the next decade or hopefully longer, we can be another team with this culture. I don’t see the Pegulas as wanting to make quick or cheap decisions. They will love having the feather in their cap of a kick butt Bills team for many many years. As he said a long time ago, when this virus is behind us someday, he just needs to drill another hole to make $. Oh and god bless them for it.

Cruiser, you beat me to it, and thanks. There won’t be a static list. It will be based upon what they expect are on the reserve each week and what they need, and they also can activate this year only to 55 on game day which is a separate issue. 17, I don’t think so, just before this new rule about anyone getting on a practice squad, were able to keep him beyond the old rule, so should still be 16. If that were the case, then last year we would have had 13 where everyone else had 12. It didn’t work that way.

Drought, don’t forget Remember the Titans for the 100th time, The Express, Brian’s Song, Little Giants, and that Christian one. I don’t even remember the name, but it was fun to watch a long time ago. Then there is always the Longest Yard (the real one not the farse by Adam Sandler although admittedly saw that one too) and the iconic Replacements. Honestly, I almost never watch Hard Knocks as I find reality shows if you can call it that as boring. Give me a good Chicago PD, Blue Bloods, or Ray Donavan any day. Have fun guys as you can probably keep this thread open and update each week.

It’s definitely true and not worried about it. At least we know they are going to continue to pound the rock, and use Cam for what he does best. With all of his injuries, it’s hard to believe he is the same QB he used to be, and what about the defense. They were destroyed between opt outs and free agency. As far as the O Line, they lost a RT, a G, and for the run game their Fullback.

I understand the reference given the Rangers draft spot, but to pick a maybe draft pick vs. playoffs is not even a question. Think how long it will take Cincinnati before Burrow can even make an impact. What about Mario Williams, Clowney, and so on. I guess if my team was a dumpster fire like the Jets, I guess I’d pick the top draft considering they’ll be contending for that pick.

Remember, I’m with you. BB is going to have a heck of a time with 8 opt outs and 3 defensive starters before that leaving in free agency. It’s obvious with another RB acquired they are going to try and have a run heavy team, but all of the Star defensive players were already gone in free agency so he will have a tough time fielding a good team. Yes, BB will coach well, but if he had Brady, that covers a lot up. Cam isn’t even close to as good as was Brady. I am not saying Cam is not good, but he doesn’t have that quick release like Brady who throws with a great deal of accuracy. I’m just glad we don’t have to face him twice a year anymore.

That’s exactly why he makes the team and was acquired before. McD knows there are three phases to a team and Roberts is one of the top 5-6 returners in the NFL. Most returners are with WR’s, DB’s, and in some cases a RB. If you’re keeping a 6th WR, if he is a top returner he makes the team. This team doesn’t even do many 4 wide sets. They lean more on three so he’s not just a back up, but a dedicated returner.

I pretty much said the same thing. Either Hodgins makes the 53, and McKenzie makes the PS or the reverse.

Working from home or in an office boils down to the person. I’ve been in Medical Device and Biotechnology sales and management for 20 years. In my industry, you’re either in the field or working from home. My friends and colleagues in order to be successful have to work well over 50 hours a week. When in management I typically am living out of a hotel T-TR and in my office in my home M, and F. I also usually have to spend an hour or two on Saturday morning or some do it Sunday evening. As a field rep you’re basically in the field five days a week and working in you’re office in you’re home early in the am or in the evening. I’m not complaining as I get to help doctors, nurses, staff and patients with various medical conditions. If someone had a serious medical condition and is disciplined enough to work from home without distraction, I don’t see a problem. If they don’t have a serious medical condition and they have a brick and mortar job, then they should take precautions to protect their health, but follow corporate policies. The poster who states to feel lucky to have a job is correct. Unfortunately, this is such a tough time with hiring freezes, layoffs, etc. It is a luxury to be working and providing for you’re family.

No you may not Johnny. Wait let me get the hot light and you will answer my questions! Now what is wrong with the Bills QB situation. I don’t know Uncle Brian. Can’t I just watch the Cowboys embarrass themselves on tv again. Oh wait it’s the Lions, can I just watch the Lions embarrass themselves again. Uncle Brian, you have me all messed up. I don’t know and I wasn’t on the grassy knowle. ?

“Is you is, or is you ain’t my baba”. My favorite Tom and Jerry episode where Tom is in love with the female cat, and sings that song, playing the base. I haven’t thought about that in multiple decades. Thanks for the laugh.

Ok, I definitely basically because a significant amt. of my family are in one version or another in law enforcement would definitely have my license, registration, and insurance cars in my hand on the wheel with both hands and yes, I’m white. I can’t speak to the discrimination as I wasn’t there and I’m the least prejudiced person you may meet. Having an open beer whether it was to spit for chew or any other reason makes absolutely no sense. You can just as easily use an empty Pepsi can. Poor decision. Also, I’ve driven large vehicles (was a driver in college for the Buffalo News like those UPS trucks) and I don’t remember weaving a bunch. By weaving and an open container even of completely sober is enough to at least have him checked out. I’m very happy for him all worked out and I don’t hold it against him in the slightest. I’m sorry he had to go through it, and the NFL was very wrong for prejudging him As they should have taken time, and received all the facts. That is the crime in my eyes. Again, I’m white, but if I were weaving, and had an open beer even if empty, my butt would be in jail too until proven innocent,

Well, if I was the dad of the kid and he refused on my hardwood floors to take off cleats (not odd, freakin stupid), I would give him a folding chair in the garage and have fun. This wasn’t the kids hardwood floors as I don’t know many 17-18 yr. old kids living in their own apartment. This was his parents house. Actually I probably would have ticked off my son, and just said, thanks for stopping by. Then I would tell my son, you don’t want to be coached by a headcase like that. I liked him as a player (Captain comeback was his nickname of memory serves) and enjoyed him coaching, but it makes sense why he ticked so many people off in SF. Can you imagine you dropped 10k on hardwood and a coach visiting refuses to take off his cleats.

Dnevue, not me saying it. Those MTC guys broke down all the position groups and most teams with maybe an exception or two bepased on coaching tendencies tend to keep the same amt. at each position group. I don’t have a problem with 7, but if they moved the PS up to 16, and they can be activated as late as Saturday night, then you have to ask, if they move to7 on the 53, then where does that spot come from on what other position group. You definitely don’t want to lower the RB’s or O Lineman as those guys get hurt more easily than a WR simply due to the repeated contact.

Well, Roberts doesn’t have anything to worry about. “Hey, Roberts, when they kick or punt that ball to you, just run Forest run”. I knew Davis would have a real shot at making the 53. It would be great if Hodgins does as well. Remember Brown and Beasley are 30 and 31. In two years these guys will be great adds to the team and cheap labor for four years. Foster is all but gone, Williams to the PS, and maybe McKenzie is kept as he can play WR, DB in a pinch, returner, and overall gadget guy. Diggs Brown Beasely Roberts Davis Hodgins Speed, elusiveness, over the middle, returner, and now finally size. Foster should work hard at finding work at one of the places weak at WR. We’re not there anymore for once.

That’s hilarious. The PAC 10 may also cancel tonight and the SEC may even be forced to delay. I was listening to NFLR and I guess they are even considering if college ball really is delayed to air NFL games not only on Saturday, but even Friday night. That might be even too much for me. I can’t even fathom watching even some NFL Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday, and Thursday. Talk about going from nothing to overkill.

I know as the Juniors are trying to get drafted. They have a tough call to make whether to play or not. I hope the NFL does the right thing and considers if this happens delaying the draft until the end of May or June.

All kidding aside, if you guys do a tailgate, you should consider a zoom call and us out of Towners could jump on and do a toast with all our TSW friends. I’d jump on for a few. Go Bills and have a great time guys! Those poor picnic tables didn’t have a chance.

I don’t have the video, but a great memory for me was the Bills beating the Jets in 1988 to clinch the Bills AFCE. I came back from Oswego (my alma mater) with 7 college/fraternity buddies for the game. A half dozen of my St. Francis HS buddies (Came home from their colleges) joined us for the weekend. We tore it up needless to say and caught up with Gamma guys from Oswego at PJ Bottoms (not sure if that’s still around) and embarrassingly now had a Road House monster brawl with the whole UB Rugby team. No one was really hurt, and had to wake up game day with a bunch of black eyed and bruised buddies telling stories. My dad was so excited as he made breakfast for 15 college guys, and was at the lots drinking Labatts by 8:30 am (that’s after getting home around 4:30 am). So we ended up in the end zone by the runway on one side and the Gamma guys were in the other side. Ok, I’ve painted the blurry picture. Watching that game after so many years from 82-87 of a losing team, and big old Freddy Smerlas jumping up with that huge mitt blocking that field goal was a memory to remember. If you guys remember, that was one of the games where we stormed the field, I was one of the first down there and slapping the shoulder pads of those Lineman monsters. I was the third guy on the goal post for all of 7 seconds as someone tried to climb on me to get on the post. We all ended up getting trampled in that melee on the ground after. It was fun and scary all at the same time. Now a great blurry memory, and glad I grew up. I guess you’re allowed to be young and dumb as long as you learned from it. Appreciate the thread.

Well, if College ball happens in the Spring, it’s almost the best of both worlds. You get a huge infusion of the NFL in the fall if they actually have Saturday ball, and if colleges play in the Spring, then you get for those that like it College ball in the Spring. I know some people love hockey, basketball, and baseball, but I love football. I don’t watch much of college ball as the NFL takes up enough time in the fall. Just trying to think of the glass half full.

This was great. Thanks OP for the thread. God, I love our Bills! Admittedly, many of these videos are before my time, but love it. Thank you!

Costa, you might be right. Considering we need 4 backups for QB, LS, P, and K so that leaves 12. How they divide up will depend. At a minimum on PS, outside of previously stated we’d need at least one DB, one LB, one DL, one O Lineman, one RB, One RB, one WR, and one TE unless you choose two big WR’s. So by my St. Francis HS math, that’s 8. That leaves four slots so that two slots for four the above position groups mentioned. I’m glad I’m not McDermott and Beane this year. Talk about tough choices. These poor guys have to make so many decisions thinking of every contingency trying to anticipate every last thing that can go wrong. It’s mind boggling making me think
