  1. And then there is Bear Bryant. “I was curious about the role faith and religion played on his Alabama teams and asked Nathan how often legendary Crimson Tide coach Bear Bryant discussed the topics. “He made us go to church,” Nathan recalled. “He brought around the people we needed to be around – the chaplains, the preachers. He talked about it all the time because he believed in family and he tried to create that family atmosphere.”” http://gridironnow.com/tony-nathan-on-bear-bryant-faith-woodlawn/
  2. Nick Saban openly talks about his faith. Maybe there is a connection between faith and great coaches. https://www.google.com/amp/s/articles.al.com/sports/index.ssf/2016/04/watch_nick_saban_explain_how_h.amp
  3. It’s hard to get touches at Alabama when the roster is so loaded with top talent.
  4. To suggest that the Bills have a religious litmus test is frankly rather absurd. McDermott encourages players to open up about themselves with their teammates. Here is what Jordan Matthews had to say: “Receiver Jordan Matthews took a risk when his turn arrived in Week 4. Matthews sent in the usual pictures—his mom and dad, brother, fiancée. And then … a photo of a cross, to represent his Christian faith. “When I sent them the cross, I was like, I wonder if they’re going to let me talk about [my faith]?” Matthews says. “Because this is essentially who I am.” https://www.google.com/amp/amp.si.com/nfl/2017/12/01/buffalo-bills-sean-mcdermott-team-building-through-storytelling Not sure why Matthews’ would have felt uncomfortable if it were a Christian locker room.
  5. The quote from Matthews suggests otherwise. https://www.google.com/amp/amp.si.com/nfl/2017/12/01/buffalo-bills-sean-mcdermott-team-building-through-storytelling
  6. It seems that you have an axe to grind.
  7. This type of topic usually brings the Christophobes out of the woodwork.
  8. That ship has sailed. Do you honestly think we didn’t draft Rosen because of his views on the president?
  9. Beautiful facility. After you have been there it’s pretty depressing to go to the Ralph. I have always sat in a luxury box so I don’t know what it’s like to sit with the unwashed masses.
  10. C’mon man. I don’t care if he’s a wearing a tutu. It was a good job.
  11. The accuracy issue is a canard. This is a breath of fresh air after all of the bs negative analysis and reporting.
  12. He’s played both guard and tackle. Where is he the best fit?
  13. Lambeau is a beautiful facility. New Era Field is pretty sad in comparison.
  14. I lived in WI for 7 yrs and went to a Packers game every year, including a Bills game. Packers’ fans generally don’t act like drunken fools like some Bills’ fans. And don’t ever get into a drinking match with any one from WI.
  15. Analytics is just a tool that is used in conjunction with other information.
  16. I think there is a good chance we got the best offensive and defensive players in the draft.
  17. You don’t get any notoriety being sensible. You have to be outrageous.
  18. 3rd round? I would have turned the channel. The guy is a moron.
  19. Not bad. He needs to get stronger and it looks like he can be thrown off balance rather easily.
  20. Someone must have gotten up on the wrong side of the bed.
  21. League policy doesn't require a criminal conviction to result in disciplinary action. https://c-6rtwjumjzx7877x24x78yfynhx2eskqx2ehtr.g00.boston.com/g00/3_c-6bbb.gtx78yts.htr_/c-6RTWJUMJZX77x24myyux78x3ax2fx2fx78yfynh.skq.htrx2fx78yfynhx2fhtsyjsyx2fuzgqnhx2fumtytx2f7562x2f53x2f66x2f5fu8555555373051.uik_$/$/$/$/$/$/$/$/$?i10c.ua=1&i10c.dv=14
  22. It would have been interesting to see what Daboll’s offense would have looked like at Alabama last year if Tua had been the starting QB.
  23. I didn't graduate from The University of Alabama. I graduated from another fine university.
