  1. Don't know if the lyrics necessarily fit, but I was expecting Mr Brightside.
  2. 1st, I tend to believe the 1st attempt is to try to hit the ball. But the last few swings are nowhere near the ball & it just looks like frustration him trying to wail JA in the head. For that matter, many of the unnecessary roughness such as helmet to helmet & hitting a defenseless player (or hitting a QB outside the approved areas - not high or low) are not intentional. But they draw a penalty and/or a fine. This should be no difference regardless of his intent.
  3. They're pretty much different plays. The WR screen, you're trying to get the ball out to the WR as fast as possible, figuring the Dline is pretty much out of the play as they can't get out there fast enough, at least not fast enough to stop the play b4 it starts. THe OLine then pretty much gets out in front & takes on the 2nd & (hopefully) 3rd levels. On a conventional RB screen, it's slow developing & you've gotta get the DLine to commit upfield to take themselves out of the play. For whatever reason, we're not able to adequately develop these slow "setup" plays.
  4. He's already been called up twice. Is there still a limit of 2? If so, if we intend to use him this game (which I assume is likely w/ Coleman out & others injured), this might've been a necessity.
  5. I don't think I saw him on the field until Coleman got hurt. Seems we were opting for "semi-heavy"; often Knox & Kincaid w/ a lot of Hollis, Coleman w/ of Virgil & Shakir mixed in. Though as the gameplan seemed to be a bunch of short sh!t passes, that seems to be where we like to throw to him.
  6. I seem to recall watching it live, well on TV. Maybe back in the old days when you could watch a Syracuse channel all full of static?
  7. Not to get all philosophical, but it seems to me there are things worse than death. Constant, chronic pain & lack of mental functionality being 2 such conditions.
  8. I read somewhere they said that 28 yarder was partially blocked. He certainly looked peeved coming off the field. As for Martin's low net, it's not entirely on him. Maybe there's a homer observational bias, but how often are we able to down a punt near the goal line when given the chance? Seems like a low percentage where as other teams seem to manage fairly frequently. Poor coverage. I could also believe that we allow longer returns than the hang time should dictate too frequently.
  9. I'm no expert, but to me, near the LOS, moving forward, he's good, maybe Milano's equal. Out in space? Leaves something (arguably a lot) to be desired.
  10. I'm prolly out of touch w/ Edge salaries, but to me he's worth $10-12M/yr, which is to say he's prolly worth 15. Which means someone else may well be willing to pay 18.
  11. Curtis Samuel out wide please. FIFY
  12. I do. But then again, I don't have any friends And for a Bills game, I can be VERY poorly behaved, so I think it better that others aren't exposed to that.
  13. 2. I'm assuming Trubisky's injury is only short term, we put one of the 2 new guys (or maybe a different street FA) on Practice Squad & bring them up for a week or 2. As for Allen, we're already eating like $30m dead cap for Diggs, so there's no way we can cut him now as he'd be a HUGE hit so he makes the roster for sure
  14. I'd say Dazed & Confused. Fast Times came out almost WHEN I was in HS, so I just took it as that's how things were. Dazed didn't come out til over a decade later so I didn't see it til I was in my 30s (& I don't think I was very familiar w/ it til MUCH later) so it gives me more a sense of "yeah, that's what HS was like". The John Hughes movies I very much enjoyed but I saw them in my college years, so although they were relatable, they didn't hit home as much as Dazed.
