  1. Much more than any QB in 2018 draft for college play. And more than any 2018 draftee in NFL regular season play. Considering all draftees have ZERO NFL exp. More than any draftee in NFL playoff play. He has the arm talent and ball speed of a 1st round pick. has a INT % that would make Tyrod Taylor smile. has TD to INT ratio that would make Tyrod happy and J Grapps smile.
  2. Rick Dennison called and advises Tolbert may be able to pick up the slack as a slot guy.
  3. This link does not really explain the going to the ground change. Under the new rule will mean that once the receiver has control of the football, any slight movement in the receiver's hands viewed during a replay review would not be an incompletion. If the receiver is in the process of going to the ground, they will have to maintain control of the football while on the turf for the catch to be ruled as complete. It says going to the ground is going to be eliminated. Then contradicts that by above. Which sounds like old rule. So what has changed besides movement is ok? So player can lose the ball when hitting ground and then grab it again and it is a catch? As long as he is not out of bounds or ball touches ground? And if he loses control it is no catch? What is defined as losing control? It leaves his grip but not his body? Or outside his reach. Or it touches the ground?? IS THIS THE CHANGE ?: Old rule: If receiver goes to the ground in the process of completing the catch he must survive the ground. IE: if diving/flying through air and/or catches it and does not take enough steps to establish himself as a runner as he falls/dives to ground? and ball moves, comes out, or hits the ground while not in control. Incomplete no catch no fumble. New rule: If receiver is in the process of going to the ground he must maintain control when hitting the ground. IE: he is diving/flying through air?? Does not matter if out of bounds or if ball moves? Incomplete? Why do you need to survive the ground? If ball never hits the ground it should be catch.(debatable part is if player is out of bounds then likely incomplete or maybe not: i would let him still catch it even if touching out of bounds after getting 2 feet in. EX: wr catch fall two feet in fall out of bounds to the ground ball bounces up a little or moves player grabs it. catch in my book) another EX: receiver has ball go through his hands as he is diving, WR falls on his stomach, ball hits WR back and bounces up or just sits there, DB catches it in the air or takes it off WR back for a clear INT. YES??.......NO, if new rules are applied that is an incompletion. WR was going to the ground and did not maintain possession while on turf. Incomplete. Another EX: WR dives for catch and is sliding on his back as ball hits his hands for catch, as he is sliding on his back the ball pops up 8 inches and then falls back into his hands. No one is contacting him. Catch rule says that is incomplete.
  4. lol....yes he has separation anxiety.
  5. "Unchanged" is the alter ego of the "The Process" Have you never watched Star Trek? It is like those two guys the last of their species chasing across between two universes via time travel or portal(not sure) they were black on one side of body and white on the other and they were enemies because they had the colors on opposite sides.
  6. No they will be out of their minds happy AJ is taking them to the Super Bowl and Bills are getting a kings ransom when they trade Rosen or Darnold or whoever they get this year.
  7. So does Don Shula and Lou Saban but they would fail in todays NFL also.
  8. If Zay takes a step up next season, all those balls hitting him in his hands will be hitting him in his ass...........lol.
  9. The real question is(if all the reports/rumors were correct that Whaley loved Watson and Pegs banged the table for Mahomes) Why McDermott overruled them.
  10. His leading receivers are Fred Turf, Greg Ground, and Saul Air. He will be OK.
  11. Davis looks dead.
  12. RG III ?? 3 1st if you include the pick exchanged in the draft of Griffin. PS: they did this trade before draft day so not fitting your question. https://www.foxsports.com/nfl/story/washington-redskins-trade-for-st-louis-rams-nfl-draft-pick-robert-griffin-iii-washington-bound-030912
  13. SpaceX or NASA....you call it.....lol
  14. Yes agree 100% Fetou. Fans picks by Bills fans are GOLD. more EX: 2) everyone and his brother wanted Haloti Ngata over Whiffner backtakles Hitner. Posters also on this board where banging the table for Russell Wilson and instead they trade up for TJ Graham. And basically every CB Bills ever drafted in this era early no Bills fan wanted as they refused to give any of them a 2nd contract and let them walk for no return. Complete waste of picks. Easy way to get a Bills fan to jump through a table on fire?(and the genesis of the Bills mafia antics)Surprise wake them from a deep sleep and tell them Bills drafted a CB in 1st round again. There are many more examples like this.
  15. It is all a complete guessing game for QB drafting. Position needs brain function and speed decisions like no other on the field.
  16. Foles is only a 7 mill cap hit for 2018. I would rather ride AJM or winner of camp battle for starter.
  17. Agreed. Skinny flannel........only in Ireland maybe. After a lot of whiskey. Best dressed is reporter interviewing him by far.
  18. Can't we just say goodbye to a good Bill in every way character, play, teammate, off the field etc etc......who wanted to stay, and gave his all every down he ever played and came up big in only playoff game Bills have been in in last 18 years.???? Why all the hate??
  19. I did not know Montana hated Young. You are right though about Bridges usually do not help next starter by taking them under their wing so to speak. No argument. My main and only point is the bridge is like a temporary shim you break off or pull out when the building foundation is ready to be set. Just a necessary temp guy. It will be interesting if McCown does as he says he will in the link I provided. He has a history of not being very friendly to fans and support staff from anecdotal non verifiable fan interaction posts I have seen. But you know guys mellow with age and reality.
  20. If would if you were an entertainer at the top of your profession and could fill arenas, theatres, or amphitheaters, for shows/performances.
  21. Maybe but only if it is #22 for #7........lol
  22. ok smart ass.. I feel yah. But just to be clear. I was not asking a question about another thread. I read that thread. I was asking if any media guys had told us what the rumor was. IE: who was proposed to be traded and for who.
  23. You OP by asking us to name a QB that "actually helped a rookie" then changed the question to "successfully passed the torch to a young QB" (I know semantics kind of) But what we lose sight of sometimes is the bridge is just a placeholder for a guy not ready yet. Just by being here and being the bridge he IS helping the rookie so rookie does not go in before he can stand the bright lights. Even if bridge or current QB hates him like Favre Brady and others have said or acted like they do hate the new guy, they help just be being here. But since you asked: Montana did best handing off to Young. A. Smith did very well handing off to Mahomes.(I know it is a little early but I am going with it, may be the best) McCown gets it: http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000820945/article/jets-josh-mccown-vows-to-be-a-dang-good-bridge-qb Brees did well handing off to Rivers. Trent Green handed off to Kurt Warner(I admit a good stretch on that one) Kurt Warner handed off to Marc Bulger. Kurt Warner handed off to Eli Manning.(second best handoff after Montana to Young) Favre did well handing off to Rogers. (the poster child for just being present) Robert Griffin handed off to Cousins.(Griffin just did not know he was a bridge just like his 1st wife did not know she was a bridge)
  24. Can't find any news about what this was. Since it never happened, why can't the media guys tell us what fell through??
  25. Holly cap hell what are you breathing in that LA air?? NO TEAM GOES OVER THE CAP. On a yearly basis some teams are able to spend more then the cap legally within cap as you can bring forward surplus you did not spend the year before, but over the long haul all teams spend exactly the same amounts on a yearly avg.. PS: you do not win when you spend way less than cap as Bills Browns and others have done in the near past.
