  1. No sense trading for safety when they let Dean Marlowe go and he wanted to stay. He was a very adequate player when called on defense AND he was good on special teams. If he was on roster defense could have Groot and Baby Groot with their hair.
  2. He is going to sit out for more money when they move him to LT and many here will agree with him.
  3. In #2 they talk about Jack Kemp having strongest arm ever able to throw from 10 yard line to end zone.
  4. It was not that, he had no issue passing medical exam for Bengals. Oh and I was misdiagnosed with plantar fasciitis and diagnosis was wrong. Fortunately doctor realized it when he started treated me for it and I was almost crippled and had a MRI done. Had a cyst size of a golf ball wrapped around ankle bones, sinews and blood vessels. It took doctors 8 years to figure it out. Doctors are artists not scientists.
  5. For Quittin' Spain: Spain signed with the Bills after the start of free agency last offseason on April 5, 2019. Spain started all 16 games. On March 17, 2020, Spain signed a three-year, $15 million contract extension with the Bills. three years, $15M, $4.5M gtd, $1.5M signing bonus, $1.4M 2020 fifth day roster bonus; salaries $2.25M ($1.6M gtd), $3.9M, $4.15M; annual up to $500K roster bonus, $100K annual workout bonus He started the first two games at left guard before being benched in favor of Cody Ford and Brian Winters. He was released on October 21, 2020. The gave Spain a new 3 year contract after bringing him in as a FA so they believed he was part of OL going forward. They jettisoned Spain because he was not performing in games so he was benched and made backup resulting him being unhappy. Maybe he did not like scheme changes but he was paid to play. For Titans game, a team he came from, he was scheduled to play but when he got to Tennessee he could not play due to unspecified foot soreness (plantars fakeitis?). He had done quite a bit of social media comments to players on previous team when he got contract. It seems he was bragging and now he had egg on face. If he had been injured before they went down there he would not have gone with team. Then he gets back and is released without an injury settlement and more vague social media posts.
  6. Robert Woods has been known to be one of the best WR run blockers in the league since he was with Bills.
  7. You need to roll your eyes at the idiot who pays him early knowing he will not put effort at end of contract. He is like Neon Deion who would not make effort to tackle and was made ineffective when defenses ran at him.
  8. He is type of owner Washington fans deserve. An owner who hired some people so they could be at his parties. You need to roll your eyes at the jerk (and a jerk will roll his eyes at this) and the fans of that team. Remember this was the last team to integrate. After Bills Superbowl my car had red and yellow tempura paint dumped on it. When I reported it to guards on military installation they said that what do you expect with Bills item in your windshield. I responded "Good sports from a winner" and they rolled their eyes at me. True children.
  9. The ones who get more wrong regarding Bills than PFF is TSW. Something to do with a million monkeys on a million typewriters.
  10. And IF they are smart once they sign the contract they can afford to pay for professional help and equipment during off season. And off season should not be party, spend all that money, season. Hopefully they take lessons from Deshaun Watson on what NOT to expect from professional help. And not get their feet frostbit like Antonio Brown. Don't be cheap or stupid. A coworker of mine at previous job was who was a PS player who played some snaps on 53 for JEST and a lot of equipment at home. There are places which have hypobaric chambers athletes can pay for or even buy one for home.
  11. Could someone be so greedy and heartless to have HELPED building collapse and just take insurance money before they needed to pay? It happens with arsonists but would require more knowledge.
  12. People who cannot grow mullets assume those who can are strange. Personally I find completely shaved bald heads strange since the one time my head was shaved (I was drunk and my marine students thought it would be funny) I was told my head looks like a mine fields from all of the divots, scars and bumps from football, accidents and surgeries from benign cysts I get from sunshine.
  13. Having a lifetime award during next NFL draft would be nice. At Hall of Fame induction they could include a segment on players who he did film on being awarded.
  14. Bruce used to spend a bit of time after hours with Marv discussing some of the quotes and other things he brought up in practices and meetings. He also used to be seen during season at restaurants with Marv and sometimes his wife. There is a restaurant he and Marv used to go to which my mom worked at. She found one of Bruce's books on naval history with a note from Marv to Bruce in it (obviously a gift). Same restaurant I had my reception in. Today the NFLPA would object being hours spent with a coach outside of hours but it had nothing to do with football.
  15. I do not suppose @Doc knows this fact since he keeps ranting about "waste of time and money" and "Your tax dollars at work" but where does majority of money for PTO come from? Hint: This is a trick question - when there is a budget impasse PTO is one of the few agencies which does not need to have furloughs and contractors laid off due to lack of money. It is from user fees. I have worked there for over 5 years and been through several budget crises with contractors laid off and not being paid as well as civil service whining while they were repaid when budget agreement.
  16. Well his organization has shown to be incompetent so I expect we have not heard whole story but person doing it is not poor so likely he wants something else - percentages, seats, etc.
  17. Taiwan Jones was one of the first players special coordinator wanted after Tyler Matakevich. Isn't weird to have 3 LBs named Tyler on roster?
  18. Reason why not sue: Laywers screw you getting most of money and you get a coupon.
  19. No entirely. If they are hungry enough (or too lazy to go elsewhere) they dig what they want out and like raccoons wash it. I even tried putting seed in water with hot pepper sauce and then drying it before I put in bird feeder. Want to find teacher for my wife to learn to use shotgun and fill it with ice pellets. She tried an air gun but they learned to ignore it.
  20. Brandon Beane's response was not about cutting players who were not taking vaccine. This is an attempt to use what was said and expanded upon issue he did not address. This is done very often. Beane was talking about maintaining a football advantage in terms of practices, etc. by having required percentage of players with vaccine per NFL protocol rules. It would not be an advantage to cut a veteran just for that reason but if Beane had 2 players who he needed to choose between to reach percentage, one with vaccine and one not, he would cut the player which would give him the advantage. I believe all teams would do that just as they would between two players of equal ability, one causing a media crap storm and one not.
  21. They set rules and did not abide by them with lots of unwarranted praise so I cannot see them changing. Opposite of Teddy Roosevelt - Speak loudly and carry a limp stick.
  22. It will not work that way in NFL. The Titans had many players who tested positive and their faculties were not safe to use so NFL delayed and rescheduled and delayed and rescheduled until team could play. They should have scheduled game in another facility and told Titans to take whomever was available to play.
