haha yeah, ill def hold my breath on this!!! tonight my old coworker will probably knock on my door with the $50 he owes from that bag of blow we split the night of McGregor vs Nate Diaz 2 as well. Any minute now!!!

Stop using reason with the 1 emotion capable, Captain Hindsight, mob. Its his fault he got injured, even though he had been healthy 90% of his career. Brandon Beane needs to be able to look in his crystal ball and see fluke injuries before they happen! Von is the first person in NFL history to blow an ACL and make a lot of money, personally I think he did it on purpose! Obviously, everyone here personally knows him and was in the facility seeing him slack on his rehab! If anyone else in NFL history had torn their ACL before, I'd imagine they would've came back at 100% and playing better than ever the following year, but since hes the very first, we'll never know what the season after an ACL tear looks like from a player. Maybe in the future if it happens we can look at a players body of work and see if they return to form as soon as they get back to playing. Or we can just say 'hE StOLe dE mOnIeS! bEaNe iZ dUmbG!' Either flies around here

ooooofffffff. is there a chance that game won't mean anything to Balt?

I'd bet my house and my life that 100% Ravens win that game. Just no scenario whatsoever this doesnt happen, its a guarantee!! (hopefully the football jinx gods cant detect sarcasm)

At least by gametime 4p Sunday, we'll know what we're cheering for with DEN/KC! LOL agreed but didnt feel comfy stating outright it the way you did, felt a bit like this hahaha

Correct lol thank you for catching that. I knew what I meant haha Tennessee losing, is them 'winning' 😁 Freudian slip typo

This is a forgone conclusion to me. That team is arrogant enough to overplay their hand, with nothing to gain and everything to lose. Wentz will ball out and Denver will 'Denver' again. I even have a small bet on it as it pays 4:1. Nix has been impressive and I like that kid, but Spags defense comes prepared and grabs a pick or two to win IMO.

Dang, I hope he doesn't play because I want him healthy. Is it possible they work out an incentive settlement, even though it sounds unlikely. I def would've liked him on the bench, he understandably will want to play. Yikes I kinda hate this predicament at this point

#1 Most Ideal: Bills Play MIA (MIA wins & Cinci wins). Baltimore draws Pittsburgh (my ideal draw for Baltimore). This is a bit complicated, I wont cheer on Cinci, but would be pleased if it happens this way #2 Ideal: Cinci Loses. While not my 'ideal' scenario, the one I'll be rooting for out of simplicity. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --Buffalo plays the 7th seed no matter what: which can only be Denver, , Dolphins, or Bengals. I'd prefer the Fins of the 3 teams.... so week 18 I'd be rooting for KC to beat DEN, and Fins to beat the Jets --Cinci Loss to Steelers is easiest/most preferred, I'd rather they dont get in... however If Cinci wins, Baltimore draws Steelers in the 1st Rd, which I like as the divisional opponent feels most likely to be able to knock them off, PLUS if the Fins Win, Cinci still misses playoffs. So while I think that's ideal, Id rather not play with fire and let Cinci off themselves. -Side Note: NE getting #1 or #2 overall pick. If we beat Pats, theyre locked into #1. However, if our backups lose (NE wins) AND the lose to HOU's backups (HOU is locked into #4 seed)... Titans get #1 overall and NE #2. While this might not seem like a big deal, if NE gets #1 I'd expect them to trade out of this spot for a Fat Package of Draft Picks, so Let's go TN!!! Who you guys rooting for?

damn you for making me even lust for this never happening idea

Seems like we'll see more 4-3 matchup that game and potentially throughout the playoffs. At least i hope thats the case

Yes! Who can forget those legendary, uhhhh, Dutch..... Orangemen? Lol sorry had to do it I get your point and flexible offense has been majorly impressive this year! Completely agree with the Ty Johnson Lion's game being the best executed gameplan of our season. Who the heck saw that coming? Even in hindsight Im blown away, but why not do that gameplan with Cook? Not criticism at all, just saying even with the power of hindsight, its unclear what his evil genius was doing that day. Bradys first season in Carolina was very much like this as well. Teddy B at QB. DJ Moore, Robbie Anderson, and Curtis Samuel were soooo close to each being 1k yard WR's, and none of them were considered ELITE at the time (DJ had a one 1100yd season before). Robbie Anderson was a bum on the Jets, and has not done chit since then. Oh they also did with with CMC missing all but the first 3 games of season. So while Im not sure its the greatest NFL performance of all time, I dont think we can call it a total fluke or say Josh did all the legwork for Brady. Cool post!

Yep! Especially that "drives" sequence. I cant remember if they got a first down before this or what, maybe I dont remember because the broadcast at the bar flipped right in time for final 4 plays..... but i remember 1st, 2nd and 3rd down just being a bumbling mess... either sack or TFL or a penalty in there, and my vibes were there is NO WAY theyre getting the first. funny looking back at how long that TD ACTUALLY was, as opposed to the vibe of it. In my head it always felt like a 60yard TD. I dunno if time slowed down and felt like he was running forever, or if it felt as probable of a play as a 60-70yd TD felt LOL but it was a much shorter TD than the way I pictured it being. Unreal moment! Watched this at a Bills Backer Bar in Nashville on mini vacation (my first BB experience), and that made it all that much cooler!! I remember it seeming like every other fan going through the same emotional roller coasting ride..... pure excitement on the run and catch, TD - whoaaaa that actually happened..... short Delay----- and then, a ton of happy tears and hugs. Just a mental slideshow of how bad it had been, and realizing it was finally over....... best part is at that moment, we had no clue that Josh was coming down the pipeline. Obv he didnt have that connection to us at the time, but itd be really cool to see his reaction to watching these videos. I bet he'd retroactively feel that moment with us, and knowing what that looks like is probably a driving force behind wanting to win us a SB

I don't mean every pick. Our OL is nasty and locked up for a while, fairly young. Think you should take some OL every draft no matter what. I just think this draft should invest heavily and/or early in this draft. DL 100% 2nd priority. Drafts -principally- should lean to 60/40 in favor of the offense. I cant justify constant high resources to DL and then having them completely neutralized by quick release guy. This very would could just be my frustration at our DL draft picks not getting the job done, especially in playoffs where we've had anemic pass rushing in playoffs. But sinking mega resources into a guy that can be neutralized by a Tua/Stafford type is frustrating and makes me feel you just focus on scoring 40/game

Crazy to see jets down there when they had all that ammo the year they got like 4 top 100 picks

Correct. That game is the 2nd to last tryout before he heads back into the OC market Didn't we just see a team trade up from #2 to #1 literally because of this. Team 1 calls team 2, hey were shopping this pick hard, if you want one guy you have to pay to come get him

Def nervous to overpay but a gnarly playoff run would ease that for me. Plus he seems like the team-first guy you want to openly reward in the locker room. Dawkins type mentality. Head down, plugging away, process & team. Not only do you want to reward a guy like that, but you want to see the lockeroom see the type of attitude and work that gets you extended in Buffalo. At the same time... we need to heavily invest in WR position from here out. Josh is going to raise the value of any WR on this team and there will be guys we can't or shouldn't resign, because of cap implications. I'm all for taking a WR high again this year. Then another mid to late rounds. We need to become "WR Univ" like Pittsburgh. Keep josh flooded with help. Keep that positions salaries in check, don't overpay the gabe davis of the world. Worst case you end up with excess talent in the room and you have some tasty trade bait. Keep. Going. To. The. WR. Well. Early & Often

I give Keon more than benefit of the doubt here. Look at his personality, he's like a puppy always smiley and playing around. The team has had 6mos to get to know each other, and his personality gets to do that. Especially after the game where he missed a fade, came back and hit it next play! This was excitement, firing the boys up. Now***** if Keon was say 2022 Diggs or Beasley at the end of covington season, sure I'd say that's bad. But Keon? Cmon dudes a baller

Certainly was. A part of me was certain they were about to try that exact route again. Coleman has elite hops, his td was unreal. A weapon type we haven't had before. I think Keon sh💩ts allllll overrrrrr a teams secondary come playoff time. I see a 8 catch 150yds, 2 tds game in wildcard or divisional round. !BanBet!

Nah this was a let's get em on the next play ra-ra-ra!! Keon has his own swag and is super upbeat. He's hyping the troops and working on chemistry. They're gunna end up a gnarly tandem

I'll be honest, I get why this takes skill and is uncommon, but I don't understand the practical use for it? I could see on passing downs it taking away sneaky inside moves. Anybody wanna clue me in

RobbingYaHood gets no business from me after colluding to turn the buy button off with Citadel around GME. they hired people around the casino industry to try and replicate that experience. As they make their money off frequency of trade more than anything else. Cool article

Dangggg I was looking for this all year lol I got some interesting futures alive n thriving. @Buffalo716 hows your year been??

He moves to WR and becomes our #1 high-pointing WR?

You dont like GRIT? lol idc how we win honestly, just want to win
