No, they are over reacting, and it was kind of funny up to a point. They were told they can't use trademarked NFL logos, including team logos, in original graphic content they create for the show. That doesn't mean they have to remove the helmets from their desks. In film and TV clearance there's a standard of fair use where you can use a logo or trademark if the product is being used in the way it was intended, and you don't disparage the brand. Like in scenes in bars where people order a beer, you don't have to blur out the Budweiser or whatever, and when you see that that happen it's usually bc the brand didn't pay a product placement fee (or they have a deal with a different brand). But you can't take branded logos and make original videos that you have monetized. Pat generates his money from his views, and he can't use other people's branded logos to make content that is monetized. It's that simple. Having memorabilia on their desk isn't a violation since the memorabilia is being used in it's intended purpose.

I'd say he's more like adding a Beasley type possession wr. Mooney is like the Jon Brown speedster, so now they need a true #1, and a much improved OLine.

That could be true, I guess I took his comments to mean he has insider info. But you're right, he may have just meant staying all positive vs focusing on potentially negative stories. I'm still not sure he wants to make those kinds of threats. He has a lot more to lose (his footage deal) than the NFL does.

McAfee is the one being short sighted threatening to disclose NFL secrets about CTE in retaliation for having the logos pulled. And if he knows of liability around CTE and has kept his mouth shut, but is threatening to damage the NFL over a logo despite, I don't know how he looks like a good guy.

As someone who deals with licensing, and branding everyday in my line of work I actually think Pat is in the wrong here. Being able to use NFL team logos in content you generate for your show isn't the same thing as paying a licensing fee for footage. The deals that the networks pay to show games and highlights is orders of magnitude more than what Pat is paying for highlights, and most certainly includes logo usage. How much do you think the NFL would charge for you to put team logos on shirts and sell them? And do you think you would be able to do that if you paid a licensing fee for highlight footage? When Pat's show uses team logos in the graphics they generate, it's original content that they are creating for a show that generates them millions of dollars. So there should be an additional fee for logo usage. But where I think Pat is really running into dangerous territory is when he threatened to focus on untold NFL liability due to CTE in a way to damage the NFL. If he knows about underhanded practices by the NFL and hasn't said anything bc he's profiting off of the sport, but only threatens to spill the beans when his bottom line is effected, he's looks like a slime ball imo.

Is it ok if I organize a Concern Queen Fall Ball, where concerned Bills fans of all shapes and sizes can duel it out to win the title of Concern Queen? There can be only one! 😂

You know, I didn't have the kind of dad that taught very many life lessons. But one thing he did sit me down to talk about at a very early age was why I should never, ever ever ever bet on the Buffalo Bills. True story.

Absolutely. If you can hold a Josh Allen offense to 3 or 6 points you have a hell of a shot of winning.

Except no way Wilson makes the two throws throws that Aaron Rodgers made to score their only TD's. So maybe they score 6-9 points playing like GB did? If they hold the Bills to 3 points total I think they have a great shot of winning.

I added him to the Ignore list.

Yeah, 17 points all game. The Bills. They scored 24 points, In the first half. PS how many points did the Packers score on their 28 runs? ZERO POINT ZERO MR BLUTARSKI!

The status of Poyer's elbow is the only thing to be concerned about after that game.

Here's some criticism for you buddy. Your whole dissertation has been to declare the Bills defensive strategy was a failure for allowing the Packers to run. They should have put in heavier packages and made the Packers throw. But the Packers scored 0.0 points running, and they scored 14 points passing. So maybe you aren't as smart as you think you are, since you wanted the Packers to do more of what scored and less of what didn't score.

Technological innovation certainly is a baby boomer thing these days. I can't tell you how many times I have to all my in laws to figure out how to use my phone, or log into a streaming service.

He has much better match cover skills than Quan (or Hamiln). And is physical enough to play the run.

You don't know what you're talking about.

Exactly, that's a great game plan if you can win 17-13.

This is a passing league and if you make teams like the Packers (or Chiefs) commit to running you are taking away their best weapon. Rodgers only had like 75 yards through the first 3 quarters. And it doesn't matter how many running yards they had, bc they scored 0 running TD's. You don't get points for rushing yards. Rodgers did throw for 2 TD's, and had they ran on those plays the final score would have probably been 27-9. The only way a team runs the ball as often as the Packers did last night and beats the Bills is if they can hold the Bills O to under 17 points. They couldn't do that in the first half. Yet you're saying the Bills had a better chance of winning of we stacked the box and covered their RB's or TE's with Dodson or Bernard?

A massive day running the ball is around 200 yards. A massive day throwing the ball is around 400 yards. It's as simple as moving the length of the field twice vs four times.

I think it was a really good sign that Cook got several drives to spell Motor, and actually produced. Hopefully this is a trend moving forward.

Cause McD ate his spinach! And they haven't lost since I started posting that in this thread...

Idk, Jaire Alexander seems to think he won yesterday.

The Bills philosophy is if you run a 4-3, you invite them to pass and now you have a 3rd LB covering a RB or TE. They'd rather stay light and invite you to run. Bc the analytics say that the more a team runs the less likely they are of winning.

The Packers played like their season was on the line. Because it was.

Yeah well, Vernon Butler, Star, Mario Addison, Jerry Hughes, Efe Obada and Horrible Harry can't stop the run or rush the passer. So I don't know how our D is going to contain their RB's or get to Rodgers.
