There is a difference between legitimate debate and critique and mindless drivel

Get over yourself. You are not Nostradamus.

The irony of your avatar name and your attitude about Beane and Allen is priceless

There is a difference between not trying to swing a deal at all vs. making what you feel is a fair offer

I agree. It's just bizarre.

I like that

Perhaps hate is too strong. Dislike? Would you rather have Brandon Beane and Sean McDermott? Or Harvey Johnson and John Rauch?

If the Internet had been in existence from 68-72 God knows what would have been posted.

I think we'll pull at least one guy in.

I love discussion but some of what I see is not that I've watched them since opening day 1960. Believe me, there have been far worse times.

So you can't answer the question. I'm not terribly optimistic this year but some of the stuff around here is just bizarre

So this morning there's all this talk about how the GM is horrible because he didn't trade for Mack, how we'll stink this year, about how a rookie WB who has yet to play an actual game is a bust. And on and on. So my simple question is whay are you here if you hate this team so much? Do you take some kind of weird pleasure in trying to bring others down? Is it some kind of bizarre self-defense mechanism? What? Same kind of talk this time last year, and they made the playoffs.

I'm telling you, there are fans here who are actually fans of the team and hope for them to do well, as opposed to those who take some perverse pleasure in bashing them all the time. Lots of folks preaching doom and gloom will be surprised if they do better than what they want. You know, like last year.

Wonder if Mack and his agent are trying to get him back here.

It. Was. A. Preseason. Game. maybe they wanted to get more in Schmidt before making a decision. Or wanted to see some bubble guys more in special teams. Enough

I had to limit it somewhere or it would have gotten ridiculous.

Yes there is. Just listen to their comments when interviewed. They have a similar mindset and are working together to build a team that competes on a yearly basis. You say if they slip. Well, what if they don't? You say it's the same dumpster fire, but yet at this time last year there was doom and gloom, and they made the playoffs. will they be as good this year? I suspect not; they need to have to O line come together. But that does not mean they are a dumpster fire. I'm thinking 6-8 wins myself. I honestly don't understand your mindset. You are presumably a Bills fan or you wouldn't spend that much time on this site. But it seems you are hoping for them to do poorly. Is it just a defense mechanism to guard against being disappointed? Do you take some kind of perverse delight in being a Debbie downer? What motivates your behavior?

Let them play and see what happens. McD and Beane are working well together, they have short and long term goals. If I'm Terry I give them each 10 year guaranteed contracts and let them work their plan. The Russian roulette of coaching and GM changes is what caused the 17 year drought.

No one cares about the 4th preseason game

So many dumb things here. You first ignore the actual question asked in the OP. Who is the best right now? And based on the preseason it's Peterman. It will be Allen but not right now. The truly dumb thing is saying he's the worst ever. Have you watched the Bills since 1960? I have. I'll throw a few names out. Darraugh. Marangi. Ferraragamo. Dufek. And so on.

Look at his completion percentage this preseason. Another example of never letting facts obscure your opinion. Is Peterman ultimately better than Allen? Of course not. Is he playing better right now? There is no logical reason to say he's not.

Peterman. Laugh all you want but Peterman is playing the best right now. And it's not close. Allen will take over at some point this season, but your best shot to beat the Ravens is with Peterman

Of all the talking heads that sell themselves as football experts, but in reality have no clue, of all them I put Lombardi at the bottom of the list in terms of any actual clue.

For some here? The first series against the Ravens. These are the same folks who get bent out of shape if it takes more than a minute to get their Happy Meal at the drive through. And God forbid if they don't like the toy.

No he won't live it down if people like you keep bringing it up. I imagine he's our starter week 1, and I think he'll play well.
