    She was telling him to ask Josh to settle down after he leaped over Reid.

    Don’t think so.
    Going by her body language and the request  (“would you tell him to settle down a little bit?”) it was most likely directed at the people he was with- possibly the person filming. 
    The guy was obnoxious and obviously needed a lot of attention, making sure everyone he saw knew he was Diggs’ uncle. 
    It’s great being an enthusiastic fan, but I suspect he’s one of those guys that’s always loud and just never shuts up.

    I'm all for natural weather advantages, but the Dolphins stuff is getting to be over the top.

    It is legitimately unsafe for athletes playing as hard as NFL players do to be sitting in 120-130 degree heat with full pads on.

    At some point, someone's gonna die or have a serious medical episode due to the heat. It's beyond a fun little weather advantage at this point. It's dangerous.

    Agree.
    It’s ironic how the NFL bends over backwards addressing helmet to helmet, hits to the knees, and generally protecting the players from injury and other health issues, but ignores the seriousness of heat- related health that has the potential to cause permanent organ damage and even death. 
    Sadly, a 300 lb player dying on the field, suffering brain damage or having kidney failure will be what it takes before the NFL does something to make it safer. 
    It’s insane that players on the visiting side can’t use the cooling misting devices if the Dolphins elect not to. That’s just wrong. 
    I’m curious whether someone from the Bills or other teams has begun a dialogue with the NFL to address these concerns.

    I have no idea who this guy is. His video just popped up while browsing YouTube. He pretends to be Stefon's uncle. Apparently Stefon knows him? I found it funny the chiefs fan in front of him asked him to settle down after witnessing greatness (Josh hurdle) 🙄.

    Thanks for the reminder why I stay home to watch. The poor woman sitting in the row in front of him with the Chiefs gear asking him to settle down- that would be me.

    I stopped at John & Mary’s in Hamburg when I was back for a game a few years ago (pre-Covid). It was a treat I remembered from my childhood and I was half expecting to be disappointed. Boy was I wrong. I got the Royal sub and it was a real treat. 

     

    BTW - What is the difference between a sub and a hoagie? I just looked at their menu and they are different sections. Oh, and I now know what I want for dinner, and there is nothing in Atlanta I’d want as much as I want another one of those subs! 

     

    IF you are at Charlie the Butcher’s, try the German potatoe salad. I had forgotten how good that could be!  

    There’s a place in Cartersville called Larry’s. I believe they use those fantastic Costanzo rolls made in Cheektowaga. They even have that signature Italian sausage/capicola Royal sub popular in WNY. Looks every bit like John & Mary’s or other Buffalo area sub shops. It’s about 30 minutes up I-75 for me. Looks like there’s another one south of Atl in Fayetteville.
    Haven’t tried it yet, but plan on going to Cartersville some afternoon. In the near future. https://larryssubs.com/?fbclid=IwAR2RRWwrdrrb_-Dux8iVpopSECScMbtEiduKNlfCTlN4D-oQJPcr5pViwMo

    I have to be honest.  The only thing I want to know is today's injury report.

    Fingers crossed for Poyer, Edmunds and Knox and for no new names to pop up.

    McDermis was on WGR with Sal Capicola this morning and said Kumerow is only player ruled out for Sunday. 
    Encouraging.

  6. No need to rush him back. 


    Including the Thanksgiving game in which Tre was injured, the Bills record is 10-4 since that day.


    4 losses were 2 OT games, Pats windstorm game, and a bad Josh throw to McKenzie away from the win in Miami.

     

    Won’t be surprised if he’s dressed for Packers and is given very limited snaps.
    If he seems ready, could be Jets the following week for first start since last year.
     

    The latest reports are that the rest of the injured players are close to being fully active for game day.

    I mean, is there any other way to look at it? Edmunds gone after this year is now basically confirmed!

    Right! Those crafty Bills are leaving little clues in uniform reveals-  just like Beatle albums with the ‘Paul is Dead’ hoax.
    Oh, so clever.  Hoping that Milano is a clue also.  Maybe something to do with cookies!

  8. Last I heard neither Miller or Diggs are the GMs for the Buffalo Bills, so I don't care much about who they want to invite to the party.

     

    I do like the idea that Buffalo has become a preferred destination for FAs, but right now they're doing fine without OBJ. 

     

    As far as I know, he's still several weeks behind Tre in his ACL rehab, and even then, there's no guarantee he'll be 100% or any better than Shakir, Hodgins, or others who are already familiar with the playbook and Josh.

     

    Basically, the order goes: Tre comes back, stadium renderings, OBJ maybe someday, but if not, that's fine too.

    Great win by the Bills! Seeing Keenum again brought about some reminders of his play.

     

    This is the second blowout where Josh Allen moved the offense at will, then Keenum comes in and looks totally lost. Can barely get a first down. Doesn’t score at all.

     

    Here are the Keenum led drives:

     

    Punt

    Punt

    Punt

    Punt

    End of game

     

    Barkley at least could move the offense a little bit after coming in from 2018 to 2020. Even won a game starting. No, he wasn’t great - i’m not making that argument.

     

    Here is my question: Does anyone have confidence that Keenum can win a game if he ever needed to? 

    I understand your point.


    The Bills are a class organization from top to bottom and I’m disappointed at the number of internet bullies who have shown an enormous lack of class with attacks on the OP. 
     

    The Bills have succeeded in spite of numerous injuries.  Josh Allen is a huge part of why they can overcome that challenge. Seeing Keenum’s less than stellar performance in his second stint in mop up duty raised concerns for Einstein, and he/she came here to share and discuss, presumably because he/she values your opinions. 
    instead of a respectful dialogue or counterpoint, Einstein was blasted with insults. 
     

    This is how you treat a fellow Bills’ fan? 
     

    If you don’t find the topic interesting enough to contribute, skip it or choose an emoji that reflects your opinion. 


    Go Bills!

    Von Miller said Josh is "The Will Ferrell of QB's" because he is always the same no matter what is happening or what the situation is in the game...basically said he is a jokester that is always laughing and having fun, but he also is super competitive within that...said it is refreshing after being around so many QBs who are serious all the time.

    It reminds me a bit of Brett Favre. He was relaxed and having fun.

    As a team leader, I think that attitude is contagious. Be smart, be competative, work hard to win, but have fun also.  It IS a game.

    I think suggesting this is somehow politically motivated is projecting your own bias.

     

    There are quite a few public stories suggesting Kelly was an entitled ass when he was younger. I have a cousin who met him on numerous occasions in the 90s and 2000s, in both professional settings and in more casual settings. My cousin worked in media and one of Kelly's brothers was a neighbor of a friend of his. He met his father and brothers on numerous occasions, as well. He couldn't say enough nice things about his family, but he didn't care for Jim. He never got into specific details, just said he didn't treat people very well. He loved him as a QB... as a person, not so much.

     

    Kelly has gone through a lot since his playing days and by many public accounts is a changed man because of it, but it doesn't erase his past. People who were witness to it aren't obliged to give him a pass.

    A lot of professional athletes have been "big man on campus" since they were teens.

    Some can keep their head on straight, and others let their egos get in the way of their humanity. 

    Kelly was probably a typical arrogant a-hole, but life events like losing a child, almost losing a wife during a rocky period, being a good example to his young daughters, and fighting the Big C can humble a soul.

    I suspect Kelly became more spiritual and gained a lot of perspective about his place in the universe following his playing days.

     

    Josh doesn't seem to suffer the same "big head" syndrome, or if he does, he disguises it acts gracious and grateful with fawning fans.

    Lot's of unnecessary hate.  Choose love. 

    What does the OP have to do with hate?  Y'all are so quick to throw that crap around.

    I think what we see in the video is that Singletary needs to protect the ball better - something McD is always preaching.

    Singletary needs to smother that ball with both arms when he's being converged on by defenders who are practiced at punching balls from RBs.

     

    He's leaving an open target for someone's fist.

     

    For all Josh's greatness, he tends to be a bit careless at times too when scrambling.

    The Word is that he is unwilling to play anywhere in the cold. Might retire 

    That's just stupid.

    Doesn't matter what team they play for, at some point they will play in the cold, especially if their schedule rotation puts them against 1 or even 2 northeastern divisions.

    It's not inconceivable that (the Cardinals for example) could play the both NFC and AFC Eastern divisions and get additional cold weather outdoor game against one of the other 'similar standing' teams they face on the road.

     

    The Bills play approximately 9 games that may be 'cold weather'. (how is that defined anyway? Under 50 degrees? Under 40?  30?)

    So, in effect, the dome guy could end up with maybe 5 or 6 less cold weather games than a player in the northeast. That's assuming every road game in the last part of the season is outdoors, and it's frigid.

     

    So that second round douche bag would give up over $1,500,000/year in potential earnings to not suffer in colder weather for a total of around 20 hours per season?

    Should have honed his baseball skills.

     

    Anyway, there must be a good reason the guy has been waived. 

    In situations like this where athleticism isn't an issue, usually it's either a bad attitude and he's a team cancer, or a dude who doesn't have enough brains to grasp the playbook.

    Brady is craving some 'Strange'.

    Then he should do what I do....  (I leaned this trick from Señor Wences)

    Tuck the thumb under your index finger, paint some lipstick on the 'mouth' that was created, stick some googly eyes on the index finger over the lipstick, now get in the shower and reach around the curtain.  Hello gorgous!

  15. They both want to pursue their careers, but with young kids to watch, someone has to give in.

    Giselle: TOM why don't YOU stay home and take care of them? It's MY turn!

    Tom: I'll just dump them off at Phil Rivers or Ryan Fitzpatrick's house. Those guys are retired and they won't even notice a couple of extra kids.
