Augie

I pray that there is some sort of statute of limitations on the whole 13 second thing. The ST coach and the DC are gone from that fiasco. I refuse to make myself sick over it years later. Live, learn, and move on.

Why do you think he’s hit his ceiling? What indicates that? I tend to think that people get better at their job over time given more experience. I’d say McD has done that up to this point, so why should he stop now? That’s the way it’s supposed to work, and from my experience how it typically goes. How long did it take Andy Reid to win is first Super Bowl? Now he does it about every other year. .

It’s very nice when you can plan the transition of your roster. Some things will work, some will not, but you took your shots and now you know. I’m thrilled that we no longer look to cut down day for offensive line starters. Those were dark times. I’m glad we can all participate in this group therapy session. What a bargain!

I have very little doubt that it will be “ready” to host fans for a football game week #1. I think they will still have a lot of behind the scenes items to finish, but I doubt that there will be much for fans to notice as “undone.” I hope I’m right.

Our first 3 picks were set back by injuries, while Coleman and Carter had flashes prior to being hurt. Bishop was injured early so that significantly held back his development. Ray Davis was a solid contributor and I’m eager to see some more of Javon Solomon. he’s got a bendy, twitchy skill set we otherwise lack and may be a nice roll player. It’s not easy to break the roster on a SB caliber team, and I have hopes for solid contributions from the 2024 draft. We may even have our future starting Center, if not for the backlog of talent on the OL. I think it is FAR too soon to judge the 2024 draft.

Yeah, this was no accident. The place does look great though, and if the seats can hold Dion then I think the average Bills fan will be OK. I have to wonder if that part was in direct response to the common question out there about seat size. .

Who, exactly, has determined that Beane completely busted on the 2024 FA and draft class? Can we wait until they have played some football first before determining this? That seems like the prudent approach to me, but you feel free to be you.

We can agree to disagree here. Shanahan is about his system more than the QB. I don’t want to dumb Josh down and use him like a stronger armed Purdy. Now, would I like pass catchers running free? Of course, but I don’t think Josh and Shanahan’s system are a great fit.

He lived in our neighborhood and my sister would babysit his kids while we watched games at their place and I traded playing cards with his son. I exploded an egg all over that man’s suit and lived to tell the tale. Good people!

A tour of The Big House?

We did a tour of Raymond James Stadium in Tampa once. We went to the press boxes, the locker rooms, the Pirate Ship, walked on the field (it was like a putting green), etc. there are countless things that can need finishing that will not affect the fan experience in any way. That’s a fact. The little extra touches are always nice. 😊

That’s well south of us, but one helluva storm just popped up here! Yikes! Power flicked and lost cable. You may notice that my two sad song contributions have a bit of a theme. That’s about as sad as a parent can get.

Umm, it didn’t hit me? 🤷‍♂️ I have no idea about that, I avoid the local news mostly. Nothing good there.

That’s awesome! I hope Dion can find a way to come out of his shell a little bit, not be so reserved. 🤣 I also noted, he is a VERY LARGE MAN when you put him next to regular human beings.

IDK, but this kind of opportunity is hard to pass up!

I wonder if this is week #1 or week #7? There’s a difference.

Damn, you beat me to it.

Shanahan wants QB’s who run his offense. Get the ball out to where it’s supposed to go. That’s how he gets by with a guy like Purdy. Josh is the opposite of that guy with all his improvising. I’m not sure if that is really such a great match as it would waste much of what Josh does best. JMO

Shall we roll the dice and waste Allen’s prime years starting over and revamping the roster to fit the new schemes for the new HC and coordinators? I’ll stick with what we’ve got in lieu of a gamble on a new guy.

I wonder where they rank Barry Switzer? There is a lot more to good coaching in the NFL than SB rings.

I think it’s at least sad that any human being could be so ignorant and misguided, but that’s a different kind of sadness.

Damn! I had the day after Thanksgiving in the pool!

They have outgrown the University Experience. I’m guessing that is a good thing. It certainly was for me.
