  1. But 8pm is 6pm for me. I'm cool with that.
  2. The Bills were the only 10 win team with just one selection
  3. The Bills were the only 10 win team with only one selection!
  4. I heard on the radio last night that Richard Sherman was getting a $1 mllion dollar bonus this year and a $1 million dollar raise for next year because of his selection. Yesterday was a nice day at work for Mr. Sherman Another tidbit I heard on this program is that Miami and NYJ were the only two teams without a selection
  5. Yeah but, Brady didn't make it this year. Gave me some faith in the process.
  6. I've been meaning to ask you since joining this board. Does your name reference Winslow AZ? Have you been there? I've driven by a dozen times, always assuming it's more tourist trap than anything else. The Eagles have always been one of my favs and I think I've talked myself into stopping the next time I'm on Route 66. Is it worth the stop?
  7. I put this here once before. This thread calls for it again...
  8. Not sure where you're getting this info. It's interesting and telling. Is there anyway for you to get Allen's numbers in the 2nd half of the 4th quarter? While I love the 4th quarter drives to win games, I kinda really do hate them for that same reason.
  9. I'm guessing Allen's is going to spike up in the last 7 minutes of the 4th quarter I've come to understand that Brown and Beasley are fine smurfs
  10. Significant is a squishy word. I don't think the Bills defense is significantly better than the Ravens
  11. This isn't at all debatable. it's kinda silly to argue otherwise, right?
  12. One investment strategy is short-term. The other is long-term. I think you missed my point about collective talent, perhaps intentionally.
  13. Observation - I appreciate all of the comparisons of Josh to the best of the best. I consider that a very good thing. That's the kind of team I think McD and Beane want to build.
  14. The point is valid, though, either way right? Game plan for the Raven's offense is to always play like they're behind. McD's game plan couldn't be further from this strategy than it is.
  15. Let's try this explanation for you. Think about buying a QB similar to buying a stock or other security. The theory is to buy low and sell high. An investor wants the greatest return on their investment. What you're wanting to do here is to buy a QB at their high and sell a QB that most all of the experts say is a QB with a high ceiling, or in other words has a significant opportunity for a better ROI than the QB already at or close to the high. Your question, would you trade straight across, is a silly hypothetical to begin with. That's not how this would work. The Bills would have to pay for the higher QB at that higher value, and therefore give up the potential ROI. Business men and women do not do that. The Pegulas and Beanes are making what they consider to be the best ROI for the organization. Additionally, you can't consider one player, in your case the QB, without looking at the other assets around that one player. You have to consider the synergy created by when you surround good players with other good players (you know, the 2+2=5 dynamic). The Bills put one guy on the pro bowl. The Ravens put 12. I think this considerations discounts your argument most significantly. Just a few thoughts for you to consider.
  16. So Allen makes the list of alternates. Hmmm. Six on the list and six alternates. Other's believe Allen is top 20. Or hell, top 12.
  17. I'm not sure you understand that the offense is as the coaching staff have crafted it. There was a reason that the offense has 9 new starters this year. The offense isn't Allen. The offense is McD and Daboll. Last year's offense was horrible. This year's offense is much improved. This year's offense needs to continue to grow and improve. Patience grasshopper!
  18. We all have belly buttons and you have the right to yours.
  19. I've heard him say he's got to improve so to slow the game down for him.
  20. Josh started his career having to climb out of a hole, a hole that is very tough and takes a long time to clime out of, proving his doubters wrong. The kid is further along than I could have imagined. His stock is going up, not down. Not everyone is willing to "buy" yet. Increasing numbers are. The doubters might still end up being right, but they are the minority now. Hopefully Josh keeps improving. I trust he will.
  21. If you lined up all of the starting QBs on the playground and did a pick 'em, I think Josh wold go before 20th.
  22. I was comparing their athleticism to mine. Sorry Really, they are all professional athletes. One throws better, one runs better, one is stronger, one is faster. Some of these discussions get kinda wonky at times.
  23. His 4th quarter drives to win games is pretty damn hard to beat.
