This is exactly where I stand on it. I don’t always have sympathy for a lot of guys that do dumb stuff. Usually that’s the case with failed tests. I have 2 good friends that played in the league and both had drug suspensions from adderall. They were idiots. Josh Gordon isn’t that. He’s an addict. He has a drug problem. I was engaged to an alcoholic. She’s almost 3 years sober now but I saw the way that controlled her. You become powerless. Josh Gordon needs to focus on fixing his life and worry about football another time.

Crazy Train

That’s the kind of swagger that championship teams bring on the road. This group is fearless and I LOVE it!!

Oh man, disagree 1000%. That’s one of the most intimidating things in sports

No, locations are set too. The dates are set in the spring

Done, I’m thinking we will head in Friday and back Monday (unless it’s a Saturday game).

This is like the “Schefter breaking news” tweet that started the whole Bills Mafia movement.

It’s likely Houston and will definitely be there. That’s an easy trip for me. We will be rolling in DEEP from New Orleans.

I can SO get behind this kind of stuff. While some of you like to hand the ball to the ref and act like you’ve been there, I like to dance on their grave. This team has “it.” On a side note if we are adopting any tradition (which I’m against 99.9999% of the time) I want “You’ll Never Walk Alone” from Anfield. There isn’t a tradition, in all of sports, that fits the way that would fit us. It is absolutely perfect. Can you imagine this scene right before the opening kickoff in Orchard Park?!?

So in New Orleans your boy DEMANDED that we played Renegade after taking the lead. We now officially own that song via eminent domain.

Daboll has been an abomination in this game

Comfortably the worst call that I’ve ever seen

I guess that I don’t care. I would hope that people like us raise their kids to be the next generation. That’s how I was brought up. Thats how my bills fan friends were. I don’t care to share what’s next with a bunch of people that only jump on when you’re winning.

I guess that it’s a matter of perspective because I feel the exact opposite. I don’t want a bunch of fake bandwagon fans jumping on. I don’t want to be the Warriors. I don’t want a bunch of people that haven’t experienced the lows to get to experience the highs. I want to share everything good that comes with people like y’all. We’ve been through a lot together and that adversity has made us stronger. We deserve this; they don’t.

I guess that my point is that we’ve ALWAYS been an amazing fan base. We are right there, with any fan base, in any sport. A few years back, through social media, the world was given a glimpse of it. When these networks saw the way that the rest of the country responded to us they tried to exploit it and even monetize it. We’ve managed to be the way that we are regardless of everyone else. They try to make money off of us and we donate it to charity. We are just different. We are better at this than everyone else. Stop trying to find a way to make money off that.

Call me the grinch but I’m kind of tired of being celebrated. Now I know what it’s like to be famous. We are amazing at being fans. Everyone around the league looks up to us. Reporters try to capture our essence as if we were zoo animals. You are either one of us or you watch an 8 minute clip and wish that you were one of us.

Oh, Burrow goes 1. I’m not sure if I said something different a month ago but that’s easy. Young is the best prospect, Burrow is the 1st pick

Maybe, and I’m not opposed to dressing Duke. My point is that the people that see him every single day believe that this is what he is. That’s not a bad thing and he has a skill set but clearly his separation is a problem. They watch him and think “we are better off with McKenzie or Foster.” They are all kind of the same imo. Each guy has something that he offers but none of them are transforming the offense. Next year they will add a #1 type of guy that attracts coverage and then they will be a good group. Brown is an ideal 2 and Beasley is really tough in the slot. Foster has speed, Duke size and McKenzie is elusive. That feels like you are getting somewhere.

But don’t you think the coaches that see him everyday in practice and break down the film are more equipped to make that decision? Maybe he’s not some great player that just needs a chance. Maybe he’s a fringe NFL player? I subscribe to Occam’s Razor in pretty much every situation.

There really is a lot of revisionist history around here. I’ve never understood why people hated Tyrod so much? He was really good for exactly what he was, a bridge starter. He won more than he lost (which is hard to do in the NFL), he never made mistakes and he made his share of plays. He also ended the longest playoff drought in pro sports. No one thought Tyrod was a franchise QB but he was absolutely as effective as guys like Dalton, Flacco, Mariota, Fitz, Keenum, etc... This is a guy that we should appreciate and not hate. He was better than anyone we had for the previous 20 years!! It was time for the Bills to try to find a franchise QB and that’s what they did. We don’t need to disparage Tyrod to pump up Allen!! I can’t, for the life of me, figure out why Bills fans need to do that? It was the same with Lamar last week. It’s okay for multiple guys to do things well. One guy doesn’t have to be bad for your guy to be better. Tyrod was an effective game manager that rarely (if ever) was the reason that his team lost.

2 HOF TEs make you want to see more of a CFL WR that has been active for 3 games? I’m the idiot?

Every time I watch Tom Brady play I feel like we need to bring up Davis Webb. I mean both players throw the ball with their right arm. Am I doing this right?

I disagree. The best thing was ending the longest active playoff drought in all of sports.

This only makes sense and should have been done a while ago. The one thing that I’d do is add fumbles lost to INTs too. That really tells a better story. “How many scoring plays is a QB responsible for vs. turnovers?”

I don’t care if it’s legal or not. Over the last year or so I went from a very rare user to fairly regular. I use it for anxiety before bed. I used to take a whole cocktail of meds, celexa in the morning, pamelor at night, Xanax & Klonopin as needed. It was horrible. I just decided that I wasn’t doing that anymore and scaled myself off all of them (I still keep Klonopin if I ever have an anxiety attack). For me, I hit the little 1 hitter once or twice before bed and can sleep through the night. It is a a way safer alternative to what I was on. In terms of the discussion though I think it’s an interesting one and this is a big step. MLB basically is treating the subject like I did (but focused on opioids instead of anti-depressants). “The effects of opioids are way worse than we treated them and we treated marijuana as much more dangerous than it has proven to be. We need to flip flop these two.” The NFL has a massive opioid problem and do not like to be the pioneers when it comes to change. MLB has paved the way for them to do what’s in the best interest of everyone. Believe me, it’s not in the NFL’s best interest to suspend a guy 4 games for weed when if I get busted it’s a $25 ticket. This is going on while you have 50,000 opioid overdose deaths a year in the US and a league prescribing them at alarming rates. This topic is certainly timely and a course the NFL should follow. I am fairly certain that the NFL removes weed from the next CBA. It doesn’t make sense for anyone to have it there. I hope that they address opioids at the same time. Sometimes I wonder if they will though as they are complicit in the opioid crisis around the league. Your training room shouldn’t have bags of Vicodin to pop as you please but such is life in the NFL.
