  1. Yeah, neither Funko Pops or bobbleheads are particularly engaging. I guess there can be nostalgia associated with them, if you're collecting them at certain events. A guy I work with just buys Funko Pops online when new ones come out. There seems to be no nostalgia associated with that practice. I recently built the 1960's Ford Mustang with my son. That was fun and it's a particularly good looking Lego model. I find the looks of the car models to be hit and miss. Sometimes it's just not possible to capture the looks of a car with Lego pieces.
  2. I don't understand the appeal of Funko Pop figures. I do collect Legos. I had many sets as a kid. Then I picked it up again after having kids of my own. They're doing a great job of staying relevant. The Star Wars sets are awesome.
  3. How about the Bills’ rookie class? Oliver had two sacks against the Cowboys, right tackle Cody Ford was solid against Dallas’ DeMarcus Lawrence, running back Devin Singletary finished with 101 yards from scrimmage, and tight end Dawson Knox had a good two-way game (good in the run game, three catches in the passing game) as the Bills’ pulled away. Add that to a 2018 class led by Allen and Edmunds, and a ’17 class headed by CB Tre’Davious White and LB Matt Milano, and there’s a really nice of young talent here. ? Building through the draft.
  4. Windows? dafuq? ? Amen. Mac for work. Chrome for everything else.
  5. I thought he had it. Depends on when they determine he had control. The more they played the replay, the more I think he doesn't have control until he's behind the line to gain.
  6. I don't think this is anywhere close to a tipping point. You can tell by Fuller's reaction that even he doesn't think it was a TD, lol.
  7. This is where Brady often throws a near-pick this season.
  8. So did the Bills vs Dallas. Houston has to wait play tough and wait it out. If they can stay close, then they can pour it on towards the end.
  9. They're only wrong until they're right
  10. This just seems to support my theory. It doesn't matter how good the team is. They're not trying to give any team particularly easy schedules (that's really not possible in the NFL). It's just about star players.
  11. I just want to point out that there are a few great predictions in this thread.
  12. The Bills are a roller coaster. I predicted 11 wins in the pre-season prediction thread. There's one poster who is 100% on their prediction. Got the Cleveland loss and the Dallas win correct. I think they predicted 12 wins. Gotta find that thread.
  13. Yeah, they got star players like OBJ and Bell and were projected to be good teams. I think those are the two biggest considerations for the scheduler.
  14. Bring on the Ravens. With both teams hitting their stride, this will be one for the ages.
  15. Probably is part of it. The NFL clearly wanted to hype the Browns before the season and they got plenty of prime time attention this year. I think a lot of it just has to do with star power. The Bills have some great players, but just not national stars. That's why the Thanksgiving game was huge. It showed how good the individuals were (Josh, Oliver, etc) on the national stage.
  16. The Saints game was the tipping point, not the start of it. I haven't seen any explanations of how the PI reviews are conducted, but I assume they watch them in real time to see if there was a black and white violation of the rule. To determine if it was blatantly missed in real time, they'll watch it again in real time. Even with that assumption, the amount of incorrect calls we've seen upheld this year is staggering. I think it's a good way to weed out those officials who might be fixing or just really bad at their job. It's another way to identify trends. It will raise a red flag if the PI rule itself is not adjusted in some way after they've done a review of the year's challenges.
  17. There is so much money riding on NFL games, that I think it's naive to think there is not an agenda, just short of an all-out fix. They've done their best to keep the rules as vague as possible and have invested very little money into a full time, well-trained crew. I think the PI replays in a way have shed a spotlight on it this year. Blatant PI or non-PI will not be overturned even when it's staring them right in the face. That's just a symptom of the corruption and politics.
  18. His throws on the run were pin-point accurate. Like Rodgers throwing on the run. It was super-impressive. I had non-Bills fans watching with me who hadn't really seen Allen play and they were commenting on that. People are taking notice of this kid. He's a star. He reminds me of a mix between Favre and Rodgers. Biggest competitor on the field, but super calm and collected.
