"This Time We Mean It"

According to Wiki 'If a player has a legitimate long-term injury, his cap hit is still counted; however, the team is permitted to replace him with one or more players whose combined salary is equal to (or less than) that of the injured player, even if the additional players would put the team over the salary cap. If the team's cap room is larger than the injured player's cap hit, they may take on as much as their cap room; however, the injured player may not return to play until the team is again compliant with the original cap.' So if Tyrod is severely injured in the next 3 games, never plays again, gets his money then An insurer probably pays him, in 2017 the Bills can use the $16 million cap hit and 2018 the $17 million cap hit to sign someone else. I don't claim to understand this stuff, but if this is the case the risk of playing Tyrod does not seem too bad. ** so the $27 million being thrown around is his guaranteed money for the next 2 years ** I think?

I wonder if the Bills buy insurance to offset/cover injuries? In other words, if Tyrod blows a knee and gets his full payment I wonder if an insurer would actually be on the hook for the full payment and not the Bills.

Looking at our future home opponents for 2017 and I think season ticket sales will be okay. 2017 offers a few teams that opposing fans will want to see and Bills fans don't get a lot of chances to see (especially if you include preseason) 2018 will be full blown mayday mayday mayday - to me 2018 just looks ugly for sexy value 2017 Denver Oakland New Orleans Tampa Bay 2018 Jacksonville Tennessee Chicago Detroit

I'm staying in the 'we have a chance camp' until Sunday. After Sunday I'm facing the prospect of no Bills games with Bills playoff implications until Sept 2017. Let me hang onto the dream for 6 more days.

I don't think Steelers fans are too pumped for their team this year. Prices on Stubhub are hanging around face value on the seats I've checked.

I like this article on the NFL site - rankings and SuperBowl likelihood. We're at 12 - Fire everyone! http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000748364/article/nfl-power-rankings-week-13-oakland-raiders-enter-top-three Such an important win for the Bills on Sunday. At 6-5, they are still a game back in the wild-card race. Yet, two of the teams they trail are certainly vulnerable. The 7-4 Broncos still have games remaining against the Patriots, Chiefs and Raiders. The Dolphins are the weakest team in the NFL with seven wins or more. Buffalo will host Adam Gase's upstarts at New Era Field on Christmas Eve. Then Rex Ryan's outfit closes out the season in, of all places, MetLife Stadium against those lovable Jets. #footballisfamily

Tryphena - there's a name you don't hear everyday.

You know the Uber drivers are just trying to make a living too, right?

Exactly! Sherman f'd up. So what. There's a penalty for what he did in the NFL. The refs didn't call it right and then compounded the problem by standing over the football so we couldn't snap it. Blame the refs.

In 13 years with seasons I don't think I have ever been to the concession area at half time. This Sunday I did. Is it always that packed at halftime? We could barely move in the 138 area.

Don't watch the hit, just watch his feet. He's not taking a normal step, both of his feet leave the ground together, Landry is literally launching at William's neck. I'll be disappointed if there isn't a suspension.

No good airplanes were available this year. It's not fantasy airplane, you can't just take the best airplane every week.

Hey look, it's ladies night... ow my hamstring, ow my hamstring, ow my hamstring.

Looking at the Cortana picks and the Bills have the highest win% of any team this week. I think we crush SF. http://www.cortanapredictions.com/cortanax27s-predictions/cortanas-nfl-picks-week-6

Can Dareus get a 2 game credit towards his next suspension? Some good has to come out of this injury!

Watkins likely coming back late season http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000719688/article/late-season-return-possible-for-sammy-watkins

Bills 35 - San Fran 13 Kaep has put way too much extra pressure on himself, the Ralph will be insanely loud and San Fran will have communication issues for at least the first half. I don't think San Fran will ever be in this game.

Call me crazy, but I thought the Bills were missing a few starters in those last 3 wins as well? The write ups make it sound like only our opponents are missing players. Either way they have us listed about where we belong in the middle. I doubt getting to 5 - 2 will cause much of a ripple either (if we get there).

Again, learning from the Pats fans advice of that day - I just want playoffs - sweeping the Pats means little to me without a Bills playoff appearance attached to it.

I'm going to swallow some pride and go with advice a Pats fan once gave me after a rare Bills win. It's just one game in the season, don't hyper focus on it. The W/L record only matters when the season's over. If we beat the Pats on Oct 30th and then lay a bunch of eggs in Nov/Dec the Oct 30th game won't matter.

1 - The season is still young 2 - The Bills fired the Offensive Coordinator after week 2, maybe time management was a problem they knew needed fixing? 3 - Tyrod is still a learning QB 4 - I'm glad LA didn't get the ball back with time on the clock, AND we came away with points I was in the "season's over" camp after week 2, I'm walking on sunshine right now and I want to enjoy it for another week.

I'd take him back in a heartbeat if he is in or close to being in shape.

We've interviewed Ned Hollowell a couple of times, he's a great go to guy for support , so Dareus is in good hands http://www.drhallowell.com/ One of the things we tell people who don't understand ADHD or think that the symptoms are things everyone has and are common is this - Many of these 'Symptoms' are common human behaviors. With ADHD they occur often, and they impair you. PLUS: ADHD is ongoing, perhaps lifelong, not, "Ever since my marriage ended I've been edgy." PLUS: ADHD is impairing in multiple areas of your life, not just, "I get agitated and scattered when my mother-in-law visits me."
