Taron Johnson playing very good ball.

did you see that little B word Rodgers trip Johnson after the sack? -
The NFL Admits the Browns Were Hosed in Week 4
cba fan replied to 26CornerBlitz's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
The problem clearly is Riveron. How can he miss that and also the Josh Allen fumble that should have been reversed. -
Tre White is the Best Player On the Bills Now
cba fan replied to Domdab99's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
you could get an an away White jersey and then if he is traded you could remove the White nameplate and still have a white jersey and no one would be the wiser. -
Shout out to our new, hard working punter. Thank you Pats.

Not sure if this is just a Canadian thing...…….but, someday, Drake will stop dressing like late 80's. Someday. -
Sean McDermott: "Culture Trumps Strategy" ?
cba fan replied to 26CornerBlitz's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Yes and the way to have a good culture is you need a great QB. Simple but hard to attain. -
Marrone went for 2 up 31-12 with 25 sec to go vs Jets
cba fan replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
No. It was 31-12 before the 2 pt try. If NY int's and returns it or returns a fumble they only get 2 pts. 31-14 and if they would be allowed to score a TD on a PAT return and then went for 2 it would be 31-22. -
WGR: Mike Schopp in Conversation with Kim Pegula

They are in radio for a reason. Also. Clothes uniform do not matter. Also diet and lifestyle are no factor on a non athletic job vs an athletic job. -

you fail to take into account you get double points when scoring 2 pt conversion so you statistically could be worse converting 2pt vs kicking and still score more points. https://www.boydsbets.com/nfl-two-point-conversion-success-rate/ -

cba fan replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
all the so called experts surmise, and have stats to back it up, that going for two in the long run scores more points. problem is situationally if you do that you can lose a game you should not lose because of going for two when one is the right call, situationally. IE: making a two point conversion in a blowout is meaningless. Missing a two pt conversion in a close game can by far far wrong, situationally of course. Ask Browns why they went for two when 1 pt would have given them a 3 pt lead vs Oak. That mistake forced them to go for 2 again and lucky they made it. Piitsburgh tried going for a lot of 2's doing that last year and quickly decided it was pretty stupid in NFL. They used their own numbers showing they make them at a higher league avg and were set to do it all the time as they thought Big Ben and Pitt's wr's/te's gave them even better odds. What they failed to take into account is if you have a large sample size and they do it more and more. They likely fail back to the mean. Which was exactly as it appeared to be trending before they stopped it. So I give them credit for being bold and then more credit to stop being stupid when it showed it was flawed thinking. -
Should ties be eliminated in all sports?
cba fan replied to Buffalo03's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Solution for football is easy. If game ends in a tie both teams get a loss. Players and experts say playing too much is cause for increased injury so lets not play extra time. No OT. -

lol I thought his catch phrase was "obviously". Rex was "absolutely". -
that is what I was going for. lol FYI: I live in an area of N ILL that the Cheddarheads just up north derisively refer to as Flatlanders. Ref to our area that was scrubbed pretty flat due to glaciers and the SW area of WI the glaciers went around and left it pretty hilly in comparison.

every time I hear of this being done. I can't help but think of the time Marinos Dolphins went for a meaningless two point conversion back in the day when the conversion just was implemented. Of course they ran it and the Dolphins RB had his knee bent backwards and I believe had a complete dislocation with ligament damage. Out for year and he was never the same again. Sad as hell. -
no it's not flat. It is round. Like a plate. lol

Yes that was applied to this years cap. Not sure why you are asking that. I agreed with that as my post basically said: all contracts are applied either earlier or later depending how the contract is executed and finished and money is spent either earlier or later depending on the terms of the contract in relation to the cap rules IE: sign bonus etc etc...…..and over the long haul all teams spend the same total as the salary cap is set. Fluctuations would be as teams have prorated contracts come due due to trades and cuts and sign bonuses etc etc.........some teams spend more cash yearly due to sign bonuses but then that is applied to a latter salary cap year and is why teams spend more than others some years and less in others. It all evens out over the long haul. Example: If NFL decided the salary cap would be abolished in 10 years. All the teams would have to spend all the accumulated surpluses they have built up by then. At the end of the cap all teams would have *spent roughly the same amount over the salary cap period.(*not to confuse but they all must spend at least 95% of the cap. So there is a little leeway for frugal teams to pocket a little cash like Ralphs Bills and Browns Bengals did all the time) Yes there were many better options available for a 3.5 mill salary cap hit for Corey Coleman. Better options costing little would have been Streater and Reilley and Kerley. And really any low cost option would have been better than a 3.5 mill cap hit for nothing to show right now, if you are going to cut him so soon. If you make that kind of cap hit investment you give the guy longer than a couple of weeks to develop. Of course that is easy to see now that he has been cut by Bills and we have the luxury of going back in time to make that statement. At the time it seemed like a good chance and myself after making that investment I would not have cut him. I would have let him develop for half to a whole year before cutting bait. Especially since Chris Brown not so eloquently explained he is not a book learner and needs physical reps to understand.

They must keep money back for injury replacements, if the right player comes available, and strategic players extensions. They can also carry it over for next year. But I am off topic. Dickelyjones asked "did it come at any costs besides ownership's pockets?" Yes it did. My point is it has nothing to do with money coming out of owners pockets. All contracts and player salaries are fixed to the salary cap over the long haul. Only thing that changes is sometimes the cap is spent earlier than the year it is applied and spending it in any year reduces money available to improve the team in said year.

Mike McCarthy calls Allen a 'stud'
cba fan replied to SlimShady'sSpaceForce's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I think he was flying with the wind there so his ground speed was increased accordingly. He seen a TD in his vision and he wanted it. AllenAir now boarding at gate 17 -
correct, since roughly half say they are in collapse and half say they will go on the big win streak and sail into playoffs.
-
and who have the Pats beat? Lowly bad playing Houston. and lost to bad Lions and a Jags team that could only score 6 pts on the Titans. The signs of the collapse are here. This could be it if we are lucky. Their roster is a bunch of Andre Holmes and Ramon Humber type perennial back up players and many of their young guys/drafted guys are on IR. They have a WR corps almost worse than Bills.
