I know. Why can't we have nice things?

I agree with you to a point. With some players...those that can change the complexion of one side of the ball...QB or MLB...that are coveted by the teams picking ahead of you, it is necessary to move up and spend the picks. (e.g. Allen and Edmunds) That's why it was imperative for Buffalo to acquire the additional draft capital for this year's draft. I hear where you're coming from, though, and by and large don't think it should be done for players where there is a lot of draft depth (e.g. Sammy Watkins).

That was Allen's life at Wyoming. He had no supporting cast and had to win ball games any way HE could. Part of his development is to unlearn that. Keep the drive. Keep the strong will to win. Keep the heart. Lose that it's all on you. Joe B is the one who has pushed this question and narrative. He posted it in his column and talked about it in his newscast last night. You can see how Josh is learning and developing game to game. It's one lesson at a time (get the ball out quicker, throw it away if there's nothing there, etc)...but it is development.

Happy Birthday! Glad the Bills gifted you with a win. ?

Sure seems like it.

Considering their D gave up 31 points, probably made the call easier.

It's possible that they wanted to bring him in earlier, but Anderson may have not wanted to sign right away, to see what other options might develop.

Well even though not drafting Watson or Mahomes looks like an epic failure, at least the Pegulas learned to not meddle and let the guys they hired to run the team make the decisions. There's a traditional hierarchy here now.

Russ really screwed things up. Wasn't it rumored that Whaley wanted Hue Jackson as HC? We would have kept Schwartz at DC. Instead we hired Rex, Schwartz left...and it was all downhill from there.

They also want folks to purchase Sunday ticket or subscribe to the service at NFL. com.

They can, but they rarely if ever got it, at least in the 28 years I was there. It especially bothered a lot of fans when they requested viewing of the Steelers vs Browns games, since that was 90% of the viewer fan base. I left in 2014 so I don't know if things have changed much. The NFL made some changes to blackout rules in the past few years, so maybe they softened the viewing contracts as well...although I believe, since they were in Buffalo's market, the Bills would have to agree.

Let's hope. He certainly played well against the Pats.

I always hated when the Bills would choose to keep a blocking TE in favor of one who could make plays in the passing game.

It depends on which Bortles shows up.

I know, but despite the fan base being largely Steelers oriented, Erie is officially in Buffalo' s market. If the Bills were on the road, there games were carried. Steelers fans hated the contractual obligation of the local network affiliate to carry the Bills games. I of course loved it, being a Bills fan.

I lived in Erie for 28 years. Because of the proximity of the stadium Erie was considered part of the Buffalo Market. As I recall though, home games were frequently not broadcast there. Away games were carried...much to the chagrin of Steeler fans.

Belicheck waving to the crowd? He's getting soft in his old age.

I don't want to hear about Brady's decline. He's like Rasputin or herpes. He's never gonna die or go away.

Maybe Elbert Dubenion?

Get Pascal off the field.

We can't have nice things.

Loved Sony Michel in college. Hated that the Patriots got him.

So would every Penn State fan.

Need a big play on defense...but it would be nice if they tackled.

Dumb call by Franklin on that last play. You guys were stopping Sanders all game. Why run on 4th and 5?
