Report: Bills working on extension for Jordan Phillips
sven233 replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Matt Parrino @MattParrino 47s48 seconds ago Despite tweet Jordan Phillips HAS NOT re-signed with #Bills just yet. Brandon Beane told reporters this week he’s hoping to chat with his reps in Indy this week. Stay tuned. Who knows what his tweet means, if anything, but if he does come back, I hope we get a decent price on him. He was pretty good at home, but sometimes invisible on the road. Consistency has always been an issue with him. -
I like Butler a lot. Not sure he will ever be a dominant WR, but I think he could do a lot of good things in the NFL. Anxious to see what a lot of these guys run.

On a side note, Patriots owner Robert Kraft was so happy with this news that he was heard screaming "Hookers for everybody" at the Pats* facility!

AAF needed $250m emergency investment to make payroll
sven233 replied to Alphadawg7's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Vince McMahon just negotiated a $2 Billion+ TV deal for WWE. I would be shocked if the XFL broadcasting rights didn't come up in those conversations at some point whether it would be with FOX and USA where Raw and SmackDown are located this Fall or with another network they had conversations with along the way. One advantage the XFL will have is that they have been through all this once before. Successful or not 20 years ago, there were plenty of lessons to be learned. I am sure they have a much better grasp on what challenges will be faced this time around. As a football fan, I hope one, or even both of these leagues, find success. -
He looks great and his film has some impressive moments. Not the biggest production in college, but may have the tools to excel in the NFL. He's obviously been putting in the work and while I do think combine numbers are overblown in most cases, I do think they will be important for him. Anxious to see what he runs and to see his fluidity and flexibility on routes and catching the ball to see if the extra muscle is more of a hindrance than a help. Combine numbers are not the be-all-end-all, but if he runs in the 4.45 range, he will really help himself a ton.

The only thing I haven't really liked is the lack of updates from the other game. They should be showing as many highlights from the league as possible.
-
So does a 35 second play clock and no ridiculous penalty calls.
-
There are 4-5 ideas i can think of off the top of my head. The biggest thing is that they don't want high speed collisions. So, implement a kickoff that doesn't allow for them. Just 1 idea would be to put plays at different parts of the field, some even in opponents territory, but just not allow them to run and tackle until the ball is caught by the return team. That's just 1. You just have to get creative. It can be done.
-
There are plenty of ways to keep kickoffs safe and still make them exciting.
-
I wouldn't say that. One benefit that they will have is that they can see what works and doesn't work for the AAF and tweak their own game. It will all come down to their presentation and quality of the game. As football fans, we want these leagues to succeed if only to perhaps improve the NFL in some way.
-
And that's fine. But when it is a clean hit on the QB like that was, there shouldn't be flags. NFL throws flags for breathing on QBs.
-
I like the additional audio of the players and coaches as well. So far, so good. And audio of the replay booth!!!!!!!!!!! That is awesome!!!
-
Say what you want, and I know it is very early, but I have enjoyed this so far. Big hits, the play has been pretty good, the pace of play is good, and no ridiculous penalties.
-
No way that wasn't a flag in the NFL..... If they are going to allow real hitting, that's awesome. Wasn't a fan of the placing of the ball at the 25, though. Very anticlimactic and now exciting at all. They should have found a way to FEATURE the kickoff and increase the excitement of it, not just dump it. So far, it hasn't been too bad.

Should look familiar to Bills fans

The Bills scored a point-a-minute in Super Bowl 25. The problem was that they only had the ball for 19 minutes because the defense couldn't get off the field because of pathetic tackling and blown assignments. -

Or being able to score 37 points does..... The best defense in the 4th Quarter and OT was the coin toss. -

Worst part about this is all we're going to hear is how great Brady is and how he did it again when in reality, he threw a pick and, because some idiot doesn't know where to put his hand on the ground, he gets bailed out again. Sickening...... -

That's not a catch, but we all know it will be. -

Wish we ran pick plays like that on a regular basis like the good teams do. On a side note, unfortunately there is still way too much time on the clock to even get remotely excited. With the refs in their pocket, it seems like a foregone conclusion. -

If Allen was playing in this game like Mahomes has so far, he would be getting ripped to shreds. Let's just hope Allen is playing in this game next season to have the opportunity to get roasted. -
While defense is important, at the end of the day, points win. The top 2 offenses in the NFL, along with #5 and #8 are playing to go to the Super Bowl and no top 10 defense is to be found in the group. Kansas City Chiefs (#1 in Offense) (#31 in Defense) Los Angeles Rams (#2 in Offense) (#31 in Defense) New England Patriots (#5 in Offense) (#19 in Defense) New Orleans Saints (#8 in Offense) (#14 in Defense) An elite defense used to be a lot more important than it is in today's new NFL. Defense can help you win a game on any given day, but in the end, great offenses matter so much more. Scoring points matters more than ever. I just hope we can put the pieces together to compete in today's game.
