I believed this needed to happen more and more, as the season wore on. I like Jordan Mills, but Dion Dawkins would definitely serve as that more athletic, quick, RT that the O-line really needs. Replace Dawkins' old LT spot, with an equally athletic and reliable player, the same at RG, and the O-line should be in store for great things next season.

Bills sign Derek Anderson to extension
BurpleBull replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Good deal. Hopefully this eliminates the "draft (QB) in the 6th rd" talk leading up to it. -
Not when you have another coach who also believed in him, offering him a shot. Peterman got chances in Buffalo, but not in a way that worked in his favor as a developing QB...Gruden could be the guy to get the most out of him. Peterman is a closed chapter in Buffalo...but it'll be interesting to see if anything changes for him, with the change of scenery, under a fiery guy like Gruden as his new supporter.

I think Jones catches on and he becomes the clear number one or two; I think he is the most explosive of the Bills' receivers and I think he has good drive. I don't think you can dismiss the drops and some of the other things that Foster didn't do so well in the preseason just yet; they could resurface as the season goes on and teams start to key in on clamping him...never know...hopefully not. Would be phenomenal if Foster could maintain this level of play for a career. I agree with you on McKenzie...can't remember the Bills having that type of player on offense at the WR position; usually find them on more creative and productive offenses around the league. Times are changing for the Bills.

Did anyone notice something about Sam Darnold?
BurpleBull replied to PUNT750's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Lol...And he will. -

He's an old, ranting, white man whose fixation on the past, clouds how he views present-day NFL players and the league as a whole. Forgive him. -
The NFL has killed the Golden Goose - ITSELF!
BurpleBull replied to PUNT750's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
You weren't responding out of confusion as to who I was directing the comment towards, you responded because I said this was an "old white man rant". It's obvious who I directed it to: the original poster, who was attempting to subtly racialize what he feels is wrong with the league. You probably feel somewhat silenced in a world that "will bite your head off for stereotyping pretty much any group unless you are applying a negative stereotype to a white man" so you attempt to downplay subtle, racial jabs like this one, as to keep the voice from being silenced completely; I was more blunt with my take, and that is your real problem, along with the two other posters who took issue. Funny thing is that his claims can be disputed as they are mere opinions, I speak as if factually on both his race and age group, and he doesn't dispute it. I have no reason to believe that he isn't just what I stated he is: an old, white man who went on a rant because he feels trapped in an ever-changing world, that pales in comparison to how things were when he was coming up. Lastly, 46 total words in five posts, is hardly my idea of a person "worked up over the word 'thug''. -

I was speaking specifically about the original poster... If you don't see how race could play into this, then neither do I. -

Oh, I have the capacity. I would also assume that you are white. -

Old white man rant. -
Well, guess I'll give him another vote in that case.

Bills have released Kelvin Benjamin and Andre Holmes
BurpleBull replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
...or blocking Ray-Ray's sunrays. He was enjoying the Miami sun until Benjamin decided to check himself out of the game for a play, and stand directly in front of him on the sideline. -

No more of Benjamin stealing Zay's targets. -
Damn, I voted him into the Pro Bowl just yesterday.

Allen's Last Pass (12/2): Bad Pass or Drop?
BurpleBull replied to Gugny's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Can't fault either. Pass from Allen was under duress and he couldn't get everything under the throw, resulting in a wobbler that fell short of its mark. Clay tried to come back to the ball thinking he'd have his feet under him, synced up with his hands to the ball, but he loss his footing; the ball hit his hands but his anticipation was likely thrown off. I wish Dawkins could have kept Quinn out of the backfield for a few seconds longer on the pass rush. -
Dolphins 21 Bills 17 Postgame Thread
BurpleBull replied to Hapless Bills Fan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Missed the game. Will watch it in a few hours. Thought this would be a sure win. I figured the Bills would do a number on the Dolphins' offense. I gotta see how the hell we managed to lose putting up 415 yds to their 175. -
High praise for Josh from Dolphins: “Mini Big Ben”

I'm hopeful that will remain true. -

Roethlisberger's arm strength doesn't compare to Allen's.
