RoyBatty is alive

You dont have to repeat yourself, I got the point from your long winded response to how disappointed you were last year. And the "we don't know yet has to be better" can by your mindset, not mine.

I agree. I think our top three picks were fantastic, all with very high ceiling (or least as a high a ceiling as a Guard can have).

Correct, the Bills were favored, , I guess it is psychologically hard for me to believe that after last year. That underscores the over the top hype this team had last year, a Vegas favorite over the defending SB camps on the road. Not so sure about the Eagles not being SB contenders at the start of last year.

As for each sector: Secondary: Push...Hyde and Poyer one year older both presumably health, Damar major question mark, Rapp is a positive, CB play should improve as White MAY have recovered more and still have hope for Kaiir Elam to transform into a stud. Se what a second season for a healthy Benford can translate to. LB: Push. Finally no more questions about Edmunds, we will see what he has in Chicago. I am a huge believer in the alleged undersized rookie Dorian Williams. D Line: Modestly Better. Continued growth the Rousseau, Von will be modestly better due to availability but lose with his age and ACL recovery. Poona and Floyd will be both be major additions. See if Ed Oliver can get more awareness and live up to his new contract. Coaching: No more Frazier to blame on 13 seconds, not all on McD. Defense overall, modestly improved. Running Back Much better. FINALLY we have some speed at the position. Cook could have a breakout year, especially with the improvement in the interior O Line. Cook was the rookie victim of his first carry a fumble which put him in the doghouse, yet he STILL had and impressive 5.7 yards a carry and easily could have had 1,000 had they trusted him more. Plus he is dynamic as a pass catcher and could even line up as WR. To compliment him we have a legit power broker in Damien Harris. A full year of Hines and I will say almost a plus no more Singletary and Moss (just two mediocre slow RBs). OLine: Much Better. MAYBE we have solved the guard positions with Torrence who easily could have been a rd1 selection then McGovern/Edwards on the opposite side. Bates is serviceable (and play multiple positions). Also have Broker On tackle, one more year for Spencer long to "get it", Dawkins should be hitting his prime. We have Shell from Miami, great pickup. Don't sleep on URFA Gouraige from Florida, my dark horse to make the PS then move up. TE: Better. Addition of Kincaid speaks for itself. He can open up so many creative offensive mismatches. I am also a big believer in him. WR: Modestly worse. Diggs getting older and cautiously optimistic his attitude is on correct. Davis, a crap shot. Hardy, Sheffield and Shorter (potentially) decent backups. Overall I would say the team has improved. Now I am putting a lot on our top 3 rookies (yes I know McD doesn't like to play rookies much), I think all three of them will develop into solid starters and the ceiling on Kincaid is very high imo.

I believe we have learned that predicting schedules so far it is way too premature. Look at last year, we opened up against the SB Champs on the road. Heavy underdogs and we crushed them as they were one of the worst teams in the league. As far as last year, the hype was through the stratosphere, I think (hope) last year and the way it ended was the "new era Bills regression".

Agreed, but not nearly as cool as the two TEs who wil be on the Bills, Dawson Knox and Dalton Kincaid,

No idea who that is, hope he is OK and will get another shot. I just read, a young new tight end, hope he is mentality ok as well. His dream may have just exploded on him.

go to page one and scroll down a line or 2-3 and you will see it across the screen with avatars.

"You should read the Diggs thread, it is Epic!".

I just looked up the posting stats. One unnamed poster has 112 out of the 1328 thus far, the next closes is about 90 or so. I will give him/her credit for persistence if nothing else. What is this post 24 hours ago, that we means on average this unnamed poster had a post almost 6 times an hour for the past 24, now that is persistence (or psychosis or obsession).

Are you for real? Are you laughing at these comments? "None of us have any facts to go of off" ..the "circumstantial evidence points to the team covering the is up" "Except the PSE essentially owning the media". ."That's a fact"

I conceptually totally agree with you....BUT. In the days before the instant social media, is that what we could have had with the Bickering Bills back in the Super Bowl era? Imagine those players under that scrutiny especially with all the drinking and partying going on. Yes a great team but no Lombardi's.

Impossible. According to his posts "he has risen to a level most of us can all dream of", he is President of whatever and his IQ has been tested. For a while his bombast was entertaining, now is is just trite and not worth any more time.

Was it actually worse? OMG. I might go check it out for laughs.

Do you. Please name a few. Thanks in advance.

Only if it furthers the degradation of Josh/Stefon and anyone else caught up in this circle jerk,

Thanks, i stnad corrected, just re-read it but with this thread it is only a matter of time before someone has "proof"

No, I am treating this thread like it is no big deal. If "this " is your window I feel sorry for you.

I wonder if Diggs/Allen/Bill players read this crap and sit back and chuckle. I just read that "Beane" has been going out with "co-eds" so apparently no one is safe.

Yes I need help, send the swat team. I am not glued to this thread, I just peruse it when I am bored hoping for a "conclusion" but no such luck, instead it is spiraling wildly out of control. Wonder how bizarre it will be by page 200 so I will keep checking.

I understand your point, but Actually I would rather read for REAL FOOTBALL reasons why Elam is getting less reps then Benford. Now that I would fine interesting and potentially value added. What I am reading here is soap opera speculation/garbage.

It might not be worth your time, but it is apparently worth a lot of posters time. Some of the speculation is bordering on the downright laughable/absurd.

This thread has turned into more melodramatic soap opera than ever. You can take whatever stance you want, express if as you have a friend of a neighbor of a bill player as "proof".

Noticed several factors. There were MANY playmakers in the game including Hyde on the INT and the big punt return, Singeltary had a fantastic game as did McKenzie who didnt fumble/drop the ball. Also note Josh ran a lot, several designed runs. Our O Line held up quite well. We had almost everything going for us in that game.

Who is/was this Hall person you are referring to?
