  1. I heard it turned it down because he didnt want to be typecaste. Actually Gronk would make the perfect Mongo, no acting necessary.
  2. Here are more opening day odds; AJM 65%, Allen 30%, Peterman 5%. Yes it COULD happen, Allen might not be anywhere near ready, AJM who really knows.
  3. When Gronk is 50, he will barely be able to walk, drooling on himself, having gone through all his money..his celebrity lovable oaf shtick will be replaced by being the pitiful village idiot. A victim of too many steroids, alcohol, injuries and CTE...the fact he started out with an 85 IQ doesn't help. There were 10 that passed on him, what is your point. I love the ever present 20/20 hindsight displayed here. We really need to whine about passing on Tom Brady 6 times.
  4. Thanks, article explains it, i have no "issues" with it, pure capitalism and freedom but I hope to never waste my time on it. thanks, sex sells...and sells and sell and sells.....
  5. Can someone explain what an "Instagram model" does beside post in swimsuits on Instagram? Can they make $ doing it beyond ensnaring a rich NFL football player. With all the free sex porn crap on the web who cares about Instagram models, i just dont get it.
  6. I was around here or should I say at the BBMB and yes, as it typical with overzealous fans some went to extreme, he was attacked for being frail, not 100% dedicated to football. I dont recall him being accused of "defrauding the Bills" WTH that means. And yes I said we needed to get rid of him because 1) he could not remain healthy 2) he wasnt producing. As for #2, he didnt have a QB that could lead him and another year with Tyrod Taylor thrown him the ball likely could have gotten him killed so I disagree, I was not wrong. He was not a good fir for the Bills. Again I think 90% of the criticism was "fair", this thread was about him as a "civilian", not a football player. When you sign up in the NFL brutal criticism of your play is part of the process.
  7. Gronkoski-Edmunds could be a great match up, finally we have someone that isnt half a foot shorter or half a second slower than Gronk to cover him
  8. That comment is unfair. Distinguish between what people said about his as a football player versus a human being. As a football player here he certainly did not live up to his 3rd pickl, 6 tds in 4 seasons, hurt constantly. I for one said we needed to get rid of him because he was frail, I always respected the man for what he did for his sister. Even before this new house he had a home designed for himself that she had one wing and space for a caretaker could help her out.
  9. Well certainly have done more research on him than I and I sure hope you are correct. Just think, 2016 when you were watching him he was 18 yrs old, pretty incredible.
  10. Understood. Your original post was accurate, if those two are both in the ROY convo then yes, I think we win the division, I believe the odds of that happening are about 5%.
  11. If Allen were to be rookie of the year then yes I think we would probably win the division. As for Edmunds and rookie of the year, I think that would be a borderline miracle. He turned 20 two months ago. Look up his scouting weaknesss, Instincts are average and relies on athletic gifts Can be a step slow to diagnose Lured by misdirection Will take random downhill paths that trap him in the quagmire Patience is lacking Races ahead of plays and voids his leverage and run fits at times Add that all up he is going to have a very difficult rookie season. A savvy QB like Brady is going to play fake him and misdirect him to death.
  12. No way, Marquise is smart, well balanced, incredibly mature for his age. He willl hold onto his money more than 95% of the players in the NFL. Quality guy, I wish all the best for him. Too bad it didnt work out in Buffalo, speaks to how terrible or QBing has been,not being able to remain healthy also hurt. Not many better people in the NFL. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gL6uTBnBfns
  13. could you imagine that would be an average 2.3 wins a season, even the Browns could "achieve" that
  14. I have already corrected my error. You keep bringing up he brought his team to the Super Bowl, yeah he did great. As I mentioned Tebow, RG III, Vince Young all had a great year or great moments, so what. The league figured them out and/or their skill seriously diminished. He was also going to get a gig with the Ravens til his girlfriend likened the Ravens owner to a slave owner. And now he is suing the league, yep that is EXACTLY who i would want as my employee, someone that is suing me.
  15. Once and for all drop the idiocy Kapernick was a good QB, yeah he got lucky for one year just like Vince Young did (rookie of the year), just like RG III did, hell even Tebow had a spectacular playoff vitcory throwing for over 300 yards......they were all figured out pretty quickly.
  16. RIP Nick Clark And so many look up to football players as "heroes", what a joke.
  17. As bad as the Shout song is, laregely because most are sick of it, "talkin Proud" is just downright embarrassing.
  18. You might be correct but I disagree. You get paid incredible sums of money, you really dont have a lot of responsibility and you have what 20 games a year. One thing that is inexcusable is to show up late for a game/miss a bus or flight. He was already on the hot seat for past mis-deeds. Belichek put Brandon Spikes on IR because he was late for a team meeting (not a game) despite the fact he was caught in a snowstorm. If Belichek had traded Dareus people would be saying how brilliant and tough Beiihek is. IMO, they abosultely did the right thing.
  19. I also think the Jets fans are much more rabid than are Gaint Fans. Giants fans are typically more affluent, white collar, very quiet, Jet fans are much more like Bills fans. Jets haven't won a super bowl in 50 years, giants have won 4 since then. List is a failure imo.
  20. Go figure, top 5 teams have won a third of all Supper Bowls every played. Look at the Bottom 10 teams, they won 6%. then you have market size impact. Look at the bottom, all small markets (sans Rams when they are in LA). Then you factor in the socioeconomic disparities between the have and have nots.
  21. Makes me glad we traded him. I didn't know Dareus said that, obviously very disappointing. I have some compassion for Dareus as he has had a brutal life and, and honestly isn't too bright. But he brought it all on himself, not like he couldn't see it coming after some of the trades they had already done with Watkins, no player that wasn't on board no matter what the talent wasn't safe. Trust the process.
  22. Thanks for posting, Good read, i am not sure there is anything I learned just a lot of confirmation. Beane knows and enjoys what he is doing, treats people the right way. Speaks appropriate GM speak but does let you know a little inside. I love these lines on Dareus, "“Marcell has talent,” Beane recognized. “We were really trying to get him to do things our way, every day. And I thought he took strides, but I don't know that we were ever going to get him there. So we just said, ‘let's see where it goes.’
  23. Above was my first car, Toyota Corolla Tercel about $5,200 brand new, cheaper car on the planet back then, had plastic on the floor and no radio...never replaced anything but tires, filters, one battery after 120,000 miles i gave it away.
  24. 5-11 seems pretty reasonable to me. My only difference is the Titans beat us and we beat the Colts, I think Andrew Luck wont be anything near what he was, they have a terrible roster and a potentially crippled QB. If you make those two changes to your predictions we start 0-8, the pressure to start J Allen if he already inst will be enormous.
  25. If he starts at all (sans injury to ALM) I am going with 6. Start him after the bye week. But I agree with others. hope it is zero.
