  1. Remember all the talk before the season how Herbert is just as good as Allen. No he is not
  2. my goodness, if we somehow lose to the Packers it'll be the biggest letdown since the last season of Game of Thrones
  3. Seeing Brady engineering a measly 3 points brings joy to my heart
  4. Washington is such a garbage team. They're not only bad but boring as hell. They remind me of the drought era Bills
  5. Those shoes are so big the kids could use them as beds
  6. My first wife was called Robb Riddick. Strongest woman I ever knew
  7. Is Sal standing in front of a huge stadium rendering?
  8. I just came here to post this! This needs more views. Great, great video. McCown is really good at these. I like the way he keeps saying "if this is Josh McCown playing I'm taking the check down"
  9. Lions are top of the list for me. At least in the NFL. They're even above us if you look at it objectively. Haven't won a playoff game since Barry was playing and have never (at least in my years of watching) had a genuinely great team.
  10. It's a really great story, but being the immature man child I am part of me was thinking how funny it would be if it ended with them throwing the old geezer through a table.
  11. They mentioned something on WGR a couple weeks ago and it was something I never realized. His rushing stats in the first half and second half of his rookie year and hugely different and really show how they benefitted his game overall. I guess a big part of it was that teams had to respect it and that gave him more opportunities in the passing game, plus as we see now he's a maniac and seems to play better after he's broken someone's ankles or trucked them. Pre-injury he logged rushing numbers of: 26 32 39 19 19 20 Then... after he came back from injury he did this: 99 135 101 16 30 95 Also, looking at the stats now, he threw for 200+ yards only once pre-injury, which was the chargers game when I guess a lot came in garbage time. Post-injury he topped 200 5 times. 200+ yard games aren't anything to rave about but it shows his improvement.
  12. The early games look pretty bad. Might take a look at the Giants as I haven't seen them much so far. I think the Jags will win that one. Titans/Colts should be interesting too. I guess the Packers game will be interesting purely because we play them next, so I wonder if they'll simplify the offense as Rodgers wants, and if they do will they improve much? 49ers/Chiefs should be good. Hopefully the 9ers can hand them another loss and put them even further back. I'll also be interested in the Jets and Phins games. The Phins is more intriguing because of Tua coming back. A. will he give them back the spark they had before he went down? B. Will he last the whole game without getting concussed again?
  13. I don't watch college ball so when the pre-draft stuff was going on I went and watched a bunch of film (not just highlights) people had put on YouTube. It came down to Mayfield or Allen for me, mainly because I liked the fire they had (the arm strength was big as well). There was one game where Wyoming won right at the end when Allen threw a TD and he was getting in his linemen's faces, screaming and you could see by the way they were responding that he was a total leader. That was when I really decided I would love to see him in a Bills uniform I don't think he was terrible, more wildly inconsistent. After he came back from injury he had more bad games but also had some good ones and started to lean on his running a lot more. He also made some stunning throws and even (if I remember correctly) won an offensive player of the week. I'm pretty sure most Bills fans could see he was going to become a great player, not the level he's reached of course, but definitely a franchise QB. He definitely passed the eye test, and he did all that with an historically bad O-line and Benjamin, Jones and Foster as his WRs
  14. From year 1 I've said he reminds me of the love child of favre and elway, without the horse face and tendencies to steal money from the poor of course.
  15. Allen in college had to get by on his athleticism and pure natural ability because he didn't receive particularly great coaching to work on his fine skills. Add to that a lack of talent around him and it's why so many doubted he'd be any good. Kiper for all his faults had it right when he said they were appalling when he was out injured and looked so much better when he came back. But it's not only the improved coaching he's had in the NFL, he's also insanely competitive and driven to become better. A lot of guys don't have that will to continually fine tune their skill sets, but even after the last two seasons Allen has carried on improving things like taking what the defense gives him and playing that death by a thousand paper cuts that Brady always did so well
  16. From the picture it looks like Jerry is saying "mine is THIS big". No wonder Kraft was angry
