  1. I loved the old AFL, maybe it was because i was so young but the NFL was boring as heck tome, pound and ground and then you had high flying QBs like Hadl, Namath, Lamonica that loved long bombs. Games with 3 or 4 long bomb TDs along with 4 ints were not uncommon.

  2. lol..

     

    I actually missed the video prior to posting the link. Just read through the article which was much better.

    Do you agree, i think they are terrible, Leo just keeps rambling on in monotone and Sal interrupts to keep trying to say he already said in the past what Leo is trying to say now..

    I wasnt expecting Zay to light it up. To me, the run game as a whole has been the biggest disappointment hands down.

     

    Since the Jets game Shady is averaging yards per carry in the 2's. No touchdowns. Tyrod doesnt have a rushing TD either and his yards per carry are down a lot.

    I admit it, I was. As another poster said it must be mental.

     

    The run game is a disaster because defenses have, rightfully so, next to zero respect for our WRs, now that clay is out, zero respect for the TEs as well. We are not going to fix the run game until we fix the pass game imo.

  3. Thanks for posting it.

     

    I must say for alleged professionals, Sal and Leo aren't very good. First 15 seconds both are talking all over each other. Some Drunks at sports bars do a better job than those 2.

  4. Agree with this before this year. Love the White, Jones and Dawkins picks. Milano and Peterman? Hopefully they prove to be solid picks also.

    I loved the Jones and Dawkins picks as well but they have really, thus far in their very very early parts of their careers, shown very little to be encouraged about. Jones is areal mystery, he had hands of glue now he drops more often than he catches.

  5. Nope, I wasn't there, but I saw a profile of Murray talking about this tour with excerpts of the performances. I just have to say that some people would pay to watch Bill Murray go through a series of farts and burps for 90 minutes ... and yes, people do pay good money to watch Dylan butcher Sinatra too.

    Dylan doesn't really sing Sinatra songs does he?

  6. Brady has been one of the most hit QBs in the league

     

    He's holding the ball longer now trying to throw deeper because everyone is just packing the box. Now he's taking a ton of hits. They will add up by the end of the season.

     

    Let's hope the Patriots need every game and don't get a playoff bye. Make it the toughest road possible.

    He is holding the ball longer because he doesn't have his go to slot WR Edleman as his first read. On top of that Gronk has missed a game and looks slow to me this year.

  7. They're 1-2 at home this year, and probably should be 0-3 if the Texans didn't blow it. Not saying you're wrong, just thought it was interesting.

    Houston had that game won, all the db had to do was hold onto the ball rolling on the ground, I couldn't believe he let it slip.

     

    And then the dumbass Texans waited 10 seconds to call a time out, very Rex Ryanish.

  8. Mc Beane cant evaluate talent that's why he can make moves ....Its easy to get rid of players its hard to acquire because you have to have an eye for talent . I cant see this gm acquiring a Shady or getting a Hughes for virtually nothing do you ? Lest face facts the only reason he is here is because of McD. How are there draft picks holding up they wanted and traded up for dawkins and Zay those two [cks are killing this team because this regime thought they was ready. I'm not even going to get started in Duucause and Tolbert when I last checked Mcd knew nothing about Offense but he thought the people he would get rid of in the purge was on the offensive side of the ball of young on first contract players in the name of culture change making our team the second oldest in the league. Incredible talking about someone not deserving of promotion Beame picture should be front and center

    Bean wasn't here for the draft, those picks are on Whaley and way too early to pounce on them.

     

    As for Duchasse and Tolbert, on that I agree, these ex Panthers and "good guys in the lockeroom" only gets you so far.

  9. The 2nd Bills drive showed me all I want to know regarding TT's love affair in holding the ball. He sidearmed a ball low and slightly behind Tate that if in stride would've resulted in a 20+ yard gain. Later that drive after the Clay duck ball and injury, there was the late throw to Logan Thomas at the 10. If TT had any kind of field vision and wasn't so late throwing it, it wouldve been an easy 1st down near the 5 or 6. Even the announcers criticized him for holding it so long. His field vision is awful. And as we've harped for over 2 yrs now he waits way too long to pull the trigger. Still refuses to throw over the middle.

    Agreed...but he has good t/o stats, no offense but good t/o stats.

  10. Beginning of the season I would have put the odds at 1%. Now I think it is 25%.

     

    What I would really like to see is Brady pummeled taking multiple hits. It would be nice to play them last weeks of the season with a severely banged up Brady. More serious mileage on him the better and this seems to be the year.

  11. One thing that is not being taken into account in the "harm" metric is if the penalty possibly helped result in positive yards (most applicable to holding). I remember during the game on the Thomas hold that called back Shady's 44 yd run thinking it was possible he wouldn't have gotten past the 1st level if the hold wasn't made

    Yep, was thinking the same thing.

     

    And if you REALLY wanted to analyze the penalty situation, you should also start for accounting for obvious penalties that weren't called. One could make this incredibly complicated if you want but i thin the analysis might be valuable or at least interesting.

  12. Let's be realistic. Next week it'll be:

    Pats 4-2

    Bills 3-2

    Miami 3-2

    Jets 3-3

     

    Jets and Miami play each other next week, so one of them is taking a loss. Pats play ATL sunday night, and we play TB. THAT week will be the separator. Pats win and we lose and Miami losses, it's:

     

    Pats 5-2

    Jets 4-3

    Bills 3-3

    Miami 3-3

     

    And the Pats will never look back. If we win and the Pats lose, this could be a competitive AFC East:

     

    Bills 4-2

    Pats 4-3

    Jets 4-3

    Miami 3-3

    I think you are correct, if the Pats lose vs Atl and we win this will be competitive AFC East, that is If.

  13. Some of you guys crack me up. Sammy is elite. Whether you like his personality or not is irrelevant. He was way underutilized in Buffalo because of the ground n pound philosophy along with a mediocre risk adverse qb. Now the Rams braintrust are making the same mistakes. Mark my words Sammy will land somewhere where he's featured.

     

    define "elite". Is he a top 10 WR in the NFL, i would say he might squeeze in at the bottom, i dont cal that elite.

    He apologized for quitting on a route Sunday. That should be a sufficient answer.

    Did he really?

     

    Then he complains about not getting targeted. this a few days after he admitted he was selfish in Buffalo.

     

    Sammy do yourself a favor, through away your twitter account.

  14. If I moved back to WNY I'd pay lower taxes, housing would be cheaper, and people would be nicer. It's definitely on my radar.

    Lower taxes? Just out of curiosity, where do you live, Connecticut, Mass, California?

    Well taxes pay for roads, schools, infrastructure, etc. So companies took their jobs where they wouldn't have to contribute to the public good.

     

    The irony is that it doesn't stop with New York taxes. Companies get to North Carolina or Tennessee and decide their taxes are too much. So they bolt to Mexico or Bangladesh. Always out for the biggest return. Then they blame people on food stamps.

    So the demise of WNY is because of companies and their greed, is that it?

     

    Do you think companies exist for the "public good" or they exist to make money.

     

    The public good huh. Taxes also line the pocket of corrupt politicians, give out overpriced contracts to their friends and contributors.

     

    Taxes was one of the main reasons I moved to Texas, anyone that can work can get a job down here.
