  1. Let me make sure I have this straight. McDermott has a team with only 1 top 100 player (simple math would indicate the mean would be 3 top 100 per team), yet has won 4 consecutive AFC east. And he is on the “hot seat” because he sucks as a coach. Call me crazy, but something doesn’t fit here.
  2. There was a pretty good debate as to whether Araiza was a better punter than Jordan Stout that year. Stout was better at many metrics, including net punting. Araiza had lesser hang time and more returned.
  3. You guys know that’s really McDermott with a fake Boston accent, right?
  4. If Bass is practicing to miss kicks, he doing pretty well… I think it’s a concern. If it’s the holder, I’d much rather have a holder who holds at 100% and punts at a 39 yd net than a holder who holds at a 50% clip and has a net average of 44 yds.
  5. Ah, parrino and carpaccio may not be as good as Joe B, but I’m betting they make the PS.
  6. $30-50 for an out of towner to watch a Bills game is sorta a bargain. Attending a game is $200+ for two tix. Another $30 for Uber or parking. Pregame or tailgate another $100. add in flight, rental car, hotel, and folding table and you’re near $1000 for two people. All in it $600+ per person if you’re from 6+ hrs away.
  7. I was at the gym last night and I the Washington Defenders were playing. I thought WTF. They were relegated??
  8. Gotta say that you yougns don’t have a realistic view of real estate. We bought a nice house in Getzville for $196K in 1992 (original owner was Ted Cotrell, Bills DC). Sold the house for $175K in 1999 when I relocated. My signing bonus more than covered the loss, but the lesson is that real estate doesn’t go straight up.
  9. Chris Hogan. Lax, played on two winning Super Bowl teams.
  10. Pro tip. Real wrestlers don’t do suplex.
  11. This is terrific! I remember when that video came out during the pandemic. Whose the guy that looks like Cory from Trailer park boys?
  12. Hmmm… call me crazy, but in dec, I think he’s gonna believe in shoes when walking from car to field house. Do boots count as shoes?
  13. “A lot” is a pretty vague statement. 2 Bills players missed ota this week. Jones and Douglas. as defensive players, their main job is to disrupt timing. It’s a lot easier to disrupt timing than run a play where all involved need to have the timing correct. That’s why defense is usually ahead of offfense at the beginning of training camp. For Jones, as a 1T, his job is fairly clear. To hold his ground and eat up blockers, for the most part. He’s shown he knows how to do this, and do it well for the Bills. Douglas is a bit of a different story. I don’t think it’s good for him to miss camp. He’s fairly new in this defense, and I’m guessing that there are a bunch of coverage options that a boundary corner needs to know.
  14. I don’t know. Call me crazy, but a WR skipping his first practice with a new QB isn’t just a bad look, it’s a missed opportunity to develop timing with your QB and learn a new offense. Completely different than Mccaffrey who has worked 3 seasons with the same qb and offense.
  15. Cmon dude. The question was "how is MVS different than current Bills receivers". The answer is clear. He's a deep threat; the other arent (except for maybe KJ Hamler). No other Bills receiver averages more than 13 yds per catch, so a career avg of >17 ypc is clearly different than all the rest. This isnt a subtle finding. And the reason Hill averages only 13.8 ypc is he's a #1. A >150 target per year guy. He gets the short, mid, and long targets. MVS is only a mid/long guy. Will MVS be a success for the Bills ? I have no idea. But I'm pretty confident that any success he has wont be as a possession reciever.
  16. The skill set that averages 17.5 yds per catch for his career, and 20+ yds per catch for his best year. No other Bills WR comes close to those numbers.
  17. To be clear, that guy said Bishop and Carter AND still keep next years 1 and both 2s.
  18. Elite separation by Coleman in the video. Shoot, the DB isn’t even in the picture!
  19. I’m wondering when the same push will occur for cornerbacks.
  20. Anyone consider that the Bills may be keeping him as a secret weapon in the fake punt game?
  21. Me too
  22. Hamler was both fast and quick in college. Biggest problem he had at psu was drops, which I think knocked him out of the 1st round. Year 1 at Denver he averaged 19 yds per catch on limited targets. the cardiac issue he had seemed to be a viral myocarditis, which typically resolves completely. Biggest issue I see is hamstrings and acl. If he’s recovered from these, he could be the deep threat Bills currently lack. in any event,, a pretty low risk signing. Cost the Bills no draft capital and little salary cap.
  23. So, the facts are that Bills spent 1st round draft picks on both a WR and a receiving TE in the past 5 yrs. You can argue this for the next 5 billion years, but its still a fact.
  24. Hardy graduated from Penn Hills high school, about 10 mile away from downtown Pittsburgh.
