Bills Primetime Schedule Next Year
Pokebball replied to plenzmd1's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
But 8pm is 6pm for me. I'm cool with that. -
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

Yeah but, Brady didn't make it this year. Gave me some faith in the process.

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?

Watt punch on Allen run - He hung on to the ball!

I put this here once before. This thread calls for it again... -
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.

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!

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.
