LOL.
I can not imagine who, on the Jets, thought it was a good idea to march onto another team’s home field playing ‘Gangsta Paradise”.
Josh’s expression says it all. “Seriously? We’re doing this?”
Dumbest idea since TikTokBoi dancing pre-game on other team’s logos
Shame is once the new stadium is built we won't have these excellent interactions anymore. The teams will have separate tunnels.

6-2 win, 2 wins in a row with 13 goals scored and a hat trick for Tuch! Who are these guys?
If they can play the Islanders and Black Hawks every night they might just get back into this thing.

The Bills were among the first teams in the league to have an indoor practice facility when it opened in the mid 90s. A steel supported structure 12 stories high with a fixed, steel girded roof. Nowhere near a bubble.
They had a bubble before that. They got it shortly after Chuck Knox left for Seattle, partly because we didn't have an indoor practice facility.

But, November 1990 vs Phoenix was the worst. Cold, wind, rain. Check the video.
Here ya go. I queued it up to the 4th quarter when the wind and the sleet was really at it's worst. From the upper deck you could see the waves of sleet advancing across the parking lot and the lip of the stadium so you knew when to cover your face before you got pelted. This wind and sleet was the capper to what was already a wet and raw day. Just awful. I really can't overemphasize how unpleasant the 2nd half and especially 4th quarter of that game was. I have only been colder 1 other time and it's when I fell through the ice on a pond.

In order, the Jets players I'd least like to see play against the Bills: Williams, Adams, Gardner, Rodgers.
As a fellow +40 year old who has been hit WAY fewer times, I'm quite certain that every part of Aaron Rodgers will be aching Sunday afternoon. Before the game even starts.

There was a 2001(?) final home game against the Pats that started in the 50s that morning but ended up a blizzard in the second half. It was surreal and went to OT. Bills lost with Flutie as QB.

Thanks... couldnt remember kicker Bennet stopped 2 swing passes one one for losses to force the kick.
Weird commonality between two of the worst weather games is that Johnny Johnson was the opposing running back for two different teams.
That horrid Phoenix game in 1990 and then the cold Jets game in 1993.

Wasnt that the game where temp dropped to -16 with -36 wind chill... Pat Leahy went to kick 35 yarder but gust of wind took the ball sideways and it hit the wall just below the stands?
93 and it wasn't Leahy. It was Cary Blanchard. He missed 3 FGs that day including a 42 yarder with under a minute to play that hooked really badly.

Re cold weather games in general. My season tickets used to intentionally be on the sunny side. Even in the coldest days it was pretty toasty over there, so long as it was dry. Heat management was actually a bigger problem most of the time, had to unzip from time to time to vent out the excess warmth. Rain games are 100 percent the worst and rain in the high 30s or low 40s is the worst of the worst. It's better 15 degrees colder than 40 and raining.

Didn’t it seem a lot colder than 40 degrees?It's because we were all soaking wet and I think it was one of those 40 at kickoff 35 by games end sorts of things.
The common thread for the things people are calling the worst are the ones where you get wet and stay wet. Dry cold is easy to deal with. Snow isn't a problem, you brush it off. Rain sucks a lot. Rain gear makes you sweat so you're wet from the inside. If you don't wear it you just get wet from the outside. Once you're wet there's no way to get dry. It's just miserable.

Poor Rich Camarillo, I remember that game clearly. Of course, the wind giveth and taketh away in Buffalo. The following year in 1991 Shawn McCarthy of the Patriots had a 93 yard punt that I don't think will ever be replicated. It was the longest kick since the NFL-AFL merger lol
That game was the worst I was ever at. Getting hit in the face with wind driven ice pellets for a very long time. I had to cover my face with my hand. And because I got wet, and my hands got wet (through my gloves), I got very cold and stayed very cold. It was painful to be there by the end. I was also at the Jets and Raiders super cold games a couple years later and those were actually fine. Sunny day, dry. Very tolerable. That Arizona game? Awful.

That's all well and good but somebody's Nonna in North Buffalo or the K of C or the SOI needs to step up and get Josh one of these.

Cut the season in half so guys might care at least a little bit. Too many games means they don’t matter very much.
This. "Load management" should never be a thing. If that is the priority your season is too long. Baseball would benefit from this also. Chop 20 games off the season at least. Baseball should start at least two weeks later and end on Labor Day with the playoffs starting in September and finishing in October.

I think there will be a new high bust rate among NAI era dudes. They are not going to have the same drive.
IDK, the NIL thing allows more movement and gets more people to play that wouldn't have otherwise so it's likely broadening the QB pool in general.

Principle's office may have been the most central location for that 1 school's AED. Plus, people have been stealing these machines so maybe they had to keep it locked up.
It's usually the former, not the latter.

Referencing Real Sports (HBO) again, a HS kid went into cardiac arrest and a couple of students were sent to the Principle's office to retrieve the AED (it should have been within reach at the event). Neither knew where it was and by the time they ran there, searched for it and ran back it was too late.
Hopefully all of this is being taken into account along with these new resources.
I've asked either for one of our AEDs to be relocated to our gym or to get an additional one three times a year for the last 6 years.
As it stands it's on me to get it and bring it to the event, usually a basketball game. It ISN'T there during gym class all day. It lives in the lobby which is a good hike from the gym and the second one lives on the complete opposite side of the school.
Outdoor events are bad. Our district does not pay for athletic trainers so, again, it's on us to grab it and haul it outside which is fine, unless it's raining. Of course, once we've removed it from its base station it's also not where it belongs for anyone else still in the building who might need it.
Away games are worse because I have no idea if the host team has anything at all.

When we drafted him I would have been happy if he gave us 80% of prime Dalvin. 100% and counting so far …
Yeah, no. He's got a ways to go to match his brothers production.

I would never give a RB a 2nd contract personally but I could see Beane and Brady wanting to keep Cook. Beane was in Carolina when they drafted McCaffrey. Brady was in New Orleans when they drafted Kamara. Both dual threats that received second contracts. They could always point to his low volume of carries in college to justify extending him. It really depends on the agent's demands both in terms of dollar amount and length. They didn't extend Singletary though so who knows.
I can see both scenarios and I really think it comes down to the bolded. Singletary wasn't nearly as productive as Cook has been so there was a strong argument to let him walk, but then Beane's protege also let Barkley walk in NY.
It basically comes down to asset allocation. If you pay Cook which position are you going cheaper on and which other player(s) do you let walk because you can't pay them all? This is the reality of the cap era. Once you have a QB that doesn't change but all the pieces around it do. If you have a QB who is willing to not rake you over the coals for every dollar so you have more money for other players that helps too and there have been some high profile guys to do that. Allen's NEXT contract is another huge moment. Does he help the team keep a squad around him or does he need every dollar he can get? Brady took well under market value for a very long time and it made a huge difference.

So you're willing to gut this offense to save a few dollars? Cook is special, one of the few backs worth that second contract. The only reason he doesn't put up Saquon numbers is because Josh Allen is way better than Jalen Hurts as a passer. Right now the offense runs through Cook, and I don't see that changing next year.
How much and how long are you willing to go?
I didn't say I was willing to gut the offense, I'm just acknowledging the reality of the RB situation in the world.
and FWIW, people in Minnesota would have been down for giving his brother big money too. He was amazing for a couple years there.
Who to bring up from PS this week?
