  1. Tannehill is mediocre without Henry. Look what the Ravens did to the Titans when they took King Henry out of the equation. Tannehill goes 18/26 for 165. Good move to get Julio because Tannehill does not have the talent to carry his team when the run game isn't there to make his life easy. Tannehill= Game Manager. JA put up MVP numbers with no run game and at times a sputtering defense. Julio if healthy could be the missing piece for them. Him, AJ and Henry is quite the trio.
  2. As far as importance the drive against the Colts in the playoffs was probably the biggest. In no specific order, Week 2 against Miami down 3 in the 4th with 6 minutes left. The beautiful TD pass to a diving Gabe Davis for the lead. Week 3 against the Rams. Final drive for the GW TD with clutch throws to Beasley, Diggs and eventually Kroft. Week 10 against Arizona. No explanation needed. Week 13 against the Niners up 14-7 with 1 minute left on the 10 Josh methodically leads the offense into FG range before the half as time expires. To me it was big cause the Niners were getting the ball first in the 3rd. Week 17 against the Dolphins After throwing an opening drive INT Josh surgically took apart the Fins in a must win for them before departing.
  3. IF!! Oliver becomes what he was drafted for. IF!! Rousseau and Basham come in like DROY candidates. IF!! Star can hold the point of attack so others can eat. IF!! Epenesa takes the next step. IF!! Hughes remains Mr. Consistency. IF! Milano doesn't get injured. THEN! Edmunds has a really good chance of becoming a dominant and possible DPOY candidate.
  4. I'm not expecting Valedictorian status or anything like that. Heck! Every sports program needs a mascot, right?
  5. I think you maybe overestimating Julio's value and potential impact at this point in his career. 51 rec. 771 yards. 3 TDs His age, injury history, money due and potential QBs in the mix. Newton Wentz Jimmy G Tannehill Herbert Jackson Who scares you from that list. Lamar could excel with someone like Julio. Herbert has potential and Ryan T. is a game manager. The others are pedestrian at best. They have no established chemistry whatsoever. IMO I don't see much concern.
  6. I doubt Jim, Marino and Fouts are looking at Flacco, Dilfer, Rypien, B. Johnson and Foles thinking I wish I had his career. From a "QB" perspective I guess you're right. Fair or not it's about the bling when it comes to the position. Yes, it's a team sport but QBs get all the credit when it's great and all the blame when it sucks. Like you said, at least he's got Ace Ventura on the resume.
  7. Wow. I guess during sport conversations you 💩 all over guys like, Barry Sanders Calvin Johnson Warren Moon Eric Dickerson Fran Tarkenton Dan Fouts Randy Moss..... Personally you don't have to like him but as a player you have to respect him. Other greats do and he earned it as well.
  8. ^^^^^ THIS!! Marino had all world talent and was a superior thrower of the football. His supporting cast was nowhere near what Jim had around him. That being said, Kelly was the perfect field general for the Bills offense which was built and schemed specifically for him and the talent around him. Marino had a bunch of "good" players tossed together and Miami just said make it work Dan!
  9. Not offended in the least bud. Just pointing out what I felt was obvious IMO.
  10. He should have been 1st ballot. The man's resume speaks for itself and it reads, 1st Ballot!
  11. I guess he's a Diesel Motor now.😏
  12. Remember it vividly. Cribbs was my favorite Bill growing up as I've followed our team since 81. Jerry Butler and Frank Lewis were also personal favorites.
  13. Never has there been a more appropriate user name. 😆 You're Spencer's uncle aren't you? D.Will held his own last year including making TJ Watt look quite pedestrian. I hope he makes the team but no way he beats out Williams.
  14. 😭 Right now it's the biggest weak spot that hasn't been addressed. I'd make a play for Sherman at this point.
  15. As sad as it may sound, there will be RBs released that will be better than what we have and have acquired so far. So... No worries.
  16. Thats fair. Considering the monster he was in Houston and what we've seen, I'm a little disappointed as well. He's a good player but just hasn't lived up to his draft placement. Still plenty of time to show out and be the beast we expected.
  17. True. But he is elusive, shifty and surprisingly strong for his size. I do think McBeane are ready to move on from Motor and find different running mate for Moss, whether it's Breida or someone else.
  18. If the Bills can get past KC I really don't see any team other than TB and GB talent wise being an issue from the NFC. They really have become a lackluster conference.
  19. No argument from me dude, I liked the guy. As I mentioned, he didn't pan out but he wasn't a bust. At least to me he wasn't.
  20. This is starting to be unhealthy😆 Being the #1 RB in that draft is like being the best looking person in an ICU Burn Unit. Who else was relevant? Ryan Matthews maybe? We had FJ and Lynch, albeit disgruntled. We didn't need to take a chance on a scat back. Was he the top RB? Maybe, but he wasn't a Top 10 talent or a need for the Bills.
  21. I liked him as a player, though we didn't need to overdraft a RB. All I said was he was a good player when healthy. If you want to compare where he was drafted to his career production I guess you can make the case. But, like I said before it's not a players fault if a team picks him sooner than projected.
