  1. I just couldn't help it as he got more and more exposure. I also loved his game, and especially how he progressed after bouts of adversity. But the record-breaking lovefests, his own sanctimonious and tone deaf BS, and then finally him during that primetime game, after breaking the most recent record, gathering up only his sons for a sideline speech while his wife and daughter watched in the background somewhere...ugh.
  2. I have read some Drew Brees love in this thread. I used to agree with that sentiment. But the more I learn about the man, and the more I've been exposed to his particular, nice guy brand of sanctimoniousness, the more I fear he will be a public figure moving forward, and we won't like what we see.
  3. No, you can do better.
  4. Bucs, rather. Whoops.
  5. I'd argue that we SHOULD want the Pats as early as possible. Brady is a slow starter.
  6. I waited on him and the entire Carolina O-Line a handful of years ago. Olsen, who was the established, celebrated vet of the group, really had the defining/dominating comment on every thread of the table's conversation; there is a distinct way cerebral/reflective guys (or those who try to be) stick out in NFL conversations. Majority of NFL players and personnel are smart people, don't get me wrong at all. But they're not all openly inquisitive and thoughtful in social situations. Olsen was an alpha nerd at a 10-top of giants. He makes sense in the booth. Bonus tea to spill: they played credit card roulette, throwing all their cards in a ballcap and making a busser choose the loser. My idiot busser didn't dig for the heaviest card, and instead pulled out Byron Bell's card, a youngish player at the time (had been undrafted) who was the most obviously out of his element (rural Texan roots) at a restaurant like Tempo. Anyways, he tipped me under 10% on what was not a small check or a low maintenance table. Bright spot: Mario Williams made him pay the next day with his ridonculous 4.5 sack game (most of which was over Bell).
  7. I don't think anyone should reasonably argue the Bills have THE BEST WR room in the league, but, fortunately, that's NOT the point of this thread. And I have no doubt that you DO actually understand that. Just couldn't help yourself, though. Had to skip over the reasonable middle ground, almost reflexively, to present a more provocative take (when in fact you know damned well the Bills WR group is likely worse than #2 in the league but also probably better than #9. So therefore, worthy of being ON THE LIST.)
  8. Would ya eat the moon if it was made of barbeque spare ribs? It's a simple question, doc. Quit jerking me around.
  9. Doesn't his score literally mean he tested in the bottom third? Scores, by definition, must range from .01 to 1.0. It's a percentile thing, 100% comparative/relative to competition.
  10. Delicious double-entendre potential.
  11. That's a bit unfair, given the built-in advantage of far fewer games played per season. Each game carries far more weight automatically. Therefore, the schedule release is, in fact, meaningful for analysis and projection.
  12. I thought hard work would lead to happiness.
  13. You got me. I've never used it. You probably just say "period" or "full stop" or something like it's a telegram dictation.
  14. That's quite a...sentence. Consider taking a breath.
  15. That roll is mostly examples of a 6'5" 250 lb WR1 split out wide as an X. Dude has ball skills and body control. He just outgrew his natural position as a WR, apparently. Looks like a guy who was a featured target in college, especially in the red zone. Happy to have him. He's an athlete, too. Who knows where to find those darned RAS charts? (I miss the more visual spider web versions, but it seems like we've moved to the spreadsheet infographic as the current default.)
  16. The draft is not about addressing immediate roster needs, especially beyond days one and two. That kind of needs-based thinking gets lesser teams into trouble all the time. Seems like everyone criticizing this draft class is doing so while looking at perceived holes in our roster THIS YEAR. The draft, when worked properly, is about continually building out a competitive roster, year after year. Guess what: it's a process.
  17. That 10-yard split ๐Ÿ‘€๐Ÿ‘€๐Ÿ‘€
  18. Ironically, on the play cited here as evidence of Rousseau's underrated ability to "bend around the edge to get sacks," he doesn't really bend AT ALL. He is objectively, comically upright, in fact, given the claim this example is meant to illustrate. Rousseau beats the RT to the outside, sure. But not with any dip or bend, as advertised. No clue if that's a trend in his "tape," or just a poorly chosen clip. Does Rousseau have the get-off, body control, and ankle flex to bend the edge? I hope so. Would love to see footage that says so.
  19. The draft should not be about addressing immediate issues. It's a comprehensive team-building endeavor. On the other hand, we've known the Bills need more pass rushers, so...
  20. Who on ANY TEAM'S defense can keep up with that timed speed?
