  1. So the fans at the stadium will get to pay to see a pro who has 2 or 3 days of practice with the team. Oh yeh, also two weeks three years ago with one of the coaches. I am thinking having 3 qb's for the preseason was a bad misjudgement. I don't care of trading CJ, just that three was to thin. I remember some years ago the Bills lost two starting safeties in one game....and a guy in the stands that day (Bill Simpson) started at safety the next week......(not making this up...who recalls the year?) Anyhow, at the most impt position...the Bills went with zero insurance....and now the fans will get to see an unprepared QB play..........the Bean/McD administration is not looking much less inept than the Whaley/et al administration at this point.
  2. Yes, but, he is recovering from injury.....and who knows if he ever returns to form. So the discount is justified imho.
  3. Yes, that is the recent trend....its not good imho...because life is full of wins and losses, and everybody needs to learn to process both. win graciously, and how to pick yourself up and try again when you don't.
  4. Ahhhh...so far, Goff is a dumpster fire...............
  5. The pc culture thing is off base in the extreme. I have had to send three granddaughters off to college this fall...and had the "PC" discussion with all three. Tried to innoculate them from what the campus folks are mostly selling. They all see it.....the only one who has college under her belt (2 years) says that certain profs do sell the line in their classes, and those who disagree in class are punished grade wise. Smart folks keep their mouth shut in those classes. However, this PC driven activity does not occur in technically based classes (math and sciences) as their really isn't any relevance to the PC notions. Sending kids off to college, better warn them to think themselves, don't buy a left wing doctrine until you think it through. As for Shady........man has his own view, and I mostly agree....but I think the $ part of the discussion is also a significant problem.....Kap wants big money, and backups don't make what he was making in SF...or anywhere near it. Would not surprise me if Kap were to sit out a year, and get a shot at a reduced salary level (like vet minimum with incentives) with somebody next year. Its late now for Kap to sign and be of much use during the upcoming season....need time to learn a new O.
  6. Manuel never had it....strong INACCURATE arm....I saw that in person. Lots of intangibles, but they don't win football games.
  7. I was hoping they took Beckham from LSU....Giants did and that worked out for them.....bills could have had him with their #8 pcik.....that was Whaley.
  8. He played behind a great D line in LA....Aaron Donald et al. Lets settle for capable at this point....as the Bills struggle to put 4 db's on the field who can play.
  9. Yes, strong inaccurate arm....I saw to many throws miss the wr by 10 yards..........being a nice guy and having your head on straight isn't a fix for lack of skills. The Whaley Marrone confrontation over this situation was classic, and Marrone was right.
  10. I thought Rambo had game......the Bills tried to get cheap w him....and he signed elsewhere. I hitter and can intercept his share as well as I recall. Good signing imho.
  11. Its not the league alone. The provision on weed is in the CBA...and the union also supports the CBA...as it was jointly written and adopted. So, don't kit on Goodell for this one........the league is honoring the CBA......and the players union would not have it any other way.
  12. If Mccoy runs for 1200-1400 yards, you will see him again imho. Probowl rb's don't grow on trees....if he is still in top form....none better.
  13. I saw an interesting segment (sorry, no link) w Colin Cowherd where he talked about this. He said an Eli like intervention (no San Diego) may be in the works if Buffalo, Cleveland, or the Jets are in the position to draft him. (Cowherd's order) Said those franchises have not earned the right to draft such a good prospect. I now hope one of those cities draft him and have the stones to stick with the rights they have in the draft, including letting him sit out a couple of years so he can reenter if it goes that far. I don't like Cowherd, but, happened to catch that segment today.
  14. As long as he is putting 11 men (not 10) on the field each play, he gets year 3...........
  15. Brown has three NFL years.....Ragland zero. I am thinking you have projected Ragland's college play to the NFL. That is a LONG extrapolation.....and just as likely wrong as correct.
  16. Byrd is slow and trouble....malingering
  17. I got out this year after decades as a season guy. Out of town for November was a big factor......and, after all this time, I am discouraged beyond belief about the prospects of another winning team. I have seen the new management theme before...and every two or three years its gets trotted out again. I view it as marketing......I will still follow the team......but, I am not optimistic...have seen failure to many times. The product isn't what it used to be.....my seasons go all the way back to the Rockpile days when I could only afford the endzone........I will miss the tailgate with my buds.....(.they kept the seats).....and I wish them and all those attending well. (Section 112, Row 34..perfect)
  18. connor cook is #2 in Raiderland. EJ is #3...........and fading. Cardale doesn't have the head to play at the pro level.........immature approach to business.......
  19. Noooooooooo...bad attitude guy, laid down on the job his last year here. A low character guy....and slow of foot also....NEVER AGAIN!!!!!
  20. I have seen enough of J Byrd. He laid down on the job in his contract year for the Bills, I don't want to see his low life character here again in Buffalo. I paid my season ticket that year, and he collected his check and didn't play.
  21. Some things can't be calculated wrt benefits to an area that has an NFL franchise. Prestige on a national basis for one. Intangibles or, in accounting terms, "good will" are not comprehended in these studies. A public private partnership will have difficulty, however, because objective may not be the same...thus making a bad partnership. Public fund advocates will try to force a new stadium downtown.....about the worst possible choice from a fan point of view. The lack of roads in and out, and parking...as well as the loss of the tailgate culture might well result in a bath of red ink for the owners. A suburban location with 360 degrees of roads in and out is what is required, and I doubt the Erie County officials will support that choice. Bottom line, I don't think a new stadium is in the works for Buffalo in my lifetime.
  22. A suspension gets the Bills off the hook for part of that money if he goes out for 10 games, and a whole season of money if he fails the next time. This might be the only soft landing for the Bills, unless Big Puff knuckles down and plays lights out football.
  23. This is an UNDERSTATEMENT......we need more than a few. This is an UNDERSTATEMENT......we need more than a few.
  24. Why is DuCasse here from the Ravens?
  25. Jills never to be seen again. I go for the football, don't want a cent of Bills revenue to go to that diversion. Hire an extra scout!
