  1. I think there would be a fan mutiny... That said, UNC coach Roy Williams picked a hell of a day to announce his retirement...
  2. White face masks are here to stay! It’s official! Bills social media team is undefeated 😆
  3. Once again: I already said where I want it. Follow the “build it on the site of the current stadium parking lot, and turn the current stadium site into the new parking lot” model, if possible.
  4. Because there’s no need to fix what isn’t broken. Football is the greatest game in the world, and I don’t see any reason to change the length of the season. Fans were not and are not clamoring for this change — it’s all coming from the owners. “They’ll make more money” and “because people will watch the extra game!” aren’t good enough reasons to me. “More” does not necessarily equal “better”. During the 43 years that the NFL has had a 16 game regular season, it has grown into a massive money-making juggernaut. It’s ALREADY the most popular and lucrative sports league in the world. Moving to 17 and, before long, to 18 games risks further injury, watered down rosters by season’s end, and jeopardizing the health of the players over the course of their careers. I’m all for taking away a preseason game or two, but elongating the regular season is not something I support, and nothing will change my mind on that. Goodell and the owners ought to read the story of Icarus.
  5. Adams officially signed with Buffalo, per Twitter. Cue extended “we’ll never beat the Chiefs” cry sessions.
  6. If they're going to build a new stadium, I hope it stays in Orchard Park. I can't remember which team's new stadium it was (Pittsburgh? Houston?), but they just built it on what used to be the parking lot of the old stadium, and turned the site of the old stadium into the new parking lot. I'm all for whatever it takes to keep the Bills in Buffalo long term, but game days sure would lose a lot of their charm and what makes them special if the stadium left Orchard Park for downtown Buffalo. Having been to away games in city centers, I can say that the Bills game day experience is much, much, MUCH more fun and unique and special. Keep the Bills in Orchard Park.
  7. This. Denial can be a potent agent of self-deception, which may have served to blind Watson to the realities of how wrong and inappropriate his actions were.
  8. I think we can feel pretty confident at this point in the offseason that Hart's not getting big money OR a guaranteed roster spot. It won't surprise me if, when all is said and done, it's revealed that Hart signed for veteran minimum or close to it.
  9. We need all 90 players we bring to camp to have at least one Pro Bowl on their resume or we'll NEVER beat the Chiefs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  10. Oh yeah. Great name. Now if he went by Ty Adams, it would be a pass for me.
  11. Thanks. It came down to Holland and Rondale Moore. I liked Moore more (that's a mouthful) when he was 5'9". Not so much now that we know he's 5'7". There is only one active receiver in the NFL that is 5'7", and incidentally, he's a Miami Dolphin. So the Phins already have a 5'7" slot receiver/returner in Jakeem Grant, and they already have a deep threat in Will Fuller. Rondale Moore felt a bit redundant. There should be good pass catchers left in round 3 that might round out the Miami WR corps a little bit better. Holland at 50 feels like stealing, but that's the type of thing that 2020 COVID opt-outs are going to foster this year.
  12. With the 50th pick in the TSW Mock Draft, the Miami Dolphins select S Jevon Holland, Oregon While we have invested heavily in our cornerback room with Howard, Jones, and Igbinoghene, we felt that an upgrade at safety was of crucial importance. 2020 starters Bobby McCain and Eric Rowe are nothing more than replacement level journeymen. Having to face the Bills' potent passing offense and the Patriots' new two-TE set twice a year each, upgrading the middle of our secondary is a priority. In safety Jevon Holland, head coach Brian Flores gets a smart, versatile, ball-hawking chess piece for his secondary. The Oregon standout recorded 9 interceptions in his two seasons at Oregon before opting out in 2020. Wide receiver was considered here, but the depth of that position allows us to feel confident that we can find a contributor there in the third round. @whatdrought and the Washington Whatchamacallits are now on the clock.
  13. Outstanding pick for the Cardinals, but now the Dolphins (who wanted Dickerson to replace the not at all impressive Matt Skura/Michael Dieter combo) have to recalibrate.
  14. Spot on. Prior to this signing, we were looking at the unproven Ryan Bates competing against that dude who told scouts he wished his **** was bigger for swing tackle duties. Some people could really benefit from a little perspective. [Mod Edit: the story about Trey Adams and the leaked Combine interview where he had an ....unusual and off-color answer to the question "“if you could change anything about yourself, what would it be?” Yeah, this really happened 🤷‍♂️]
  15. Bengals fans should worry about their own historically putrid o-line before laughing at anyone else. Gotta love the people on here complaining about bringing in a 26-year-old 46 game starter on likely a vet minimum deal to compete to be a BACKUP. Teams bring 90 players to camp, folks. They can’t ALL be Pro Bowlers. 🙄
  16. Sheesh. People really riled up about the Ettienne pick 😆
  17. As soulless corporate stadium names go, Highmark is actually WAY better than many. It’s really not bad at all. People will always find ways to complain about pretty much anything, I guess.
  18. There is no need to trade the Bills’ Passing success for running success. They can be good at both. It’s not an either/or proposition. Suppose the Bills ran exactly as many running plays in 2021 as they did in 2020, but each of them goes for a couple yards more because they’re better at running the football. That’s what we’re talking about achieving here: Not running it more often, but running more effectively.
  19. With the 36th pick in the TSW Mock Draft, the Miami Dolphins nearly injury themselves by running so fast to the podium to select RB Najee Harris, Alabama. I don't need to say much. Best running back on our board, huge position of need, best player available. Doubt anyone would bat an eye if the Dolphins took Harris at 18, but instead they wait and still get him at pick 36. With Penei Sewell, Gregory Rousseau, and now Najee Harris in the fold, The Dolphins feel we have significantly improved our team, and we still have a pick left later in this round. @Rock-A-Bye Beasley and the Philadelphia Howie Rosemans are now on the clock.
  20. Thanks for the response. As the article points out, even DOUBLING the amount of 12 personnel they ran last year would STILL have them running 10 and 11 personnel a lot more than the average NFL team. The stats below compare 2020 to what 2021 would look like if they ran twice as much 12 personnel. 2020: - 10-personnel: 15% (2nd most in NFL) - 11-personnel: 71% (6th most in NFL) - 12-personnel: 8% (2nd least in NFL) 2021 (projected): - 10-personnel: 12% (still 2nd most in NFL) - 11-personnel: 67% (would be 9th most n NFL) - 12-personnel: 15% (5% below NFL average) As you can see, they'd still be running the second most 4-wideout sets in the league. They'd still be top ten in 3-wideout sets, too. And also, as the article points out, the increased 12 personnel usage wouldn't have to mean they were sacrificing pass game productivity. They could still be quite effective passing out of 12 by running it well and then using play action, as they did in 2020.
  21. Yeah. DJ Chark, Marvin Jones, Leviska Shenault, and Kadarius Toney, with James Robinson in the backfield....the Jags should/would be looking at an instant offensive revival. Add in K'lavon Chaisson and Josh Allen off the edges and CJ Henderson in the secondary on defense and you have the makings of a really talented young squad.
  22. As someone who actively roots against Tom Brady and Rob Gronkowski -- The Bucs getting Jaelen Phillips at 30 would piss me off.
