  1. Like many upthread, I couldn’t stand him as our coach, for many many reasons. But check out this interesting BN article (paywall but I was able to read it as a freebie) from back when he orig retired from coaching and moved back to his Mass hometown—one man’s (or many?) trash is another man’s treasure they say, and no different with DJ…quite a formative back story, everyone speaking very highly of him, and especially HS exploits on the gridiron where he had the wherewithal to signal a timeout while in the process of falling midair at the end of a championship game at the 1 so they could punch it in on the final play to win… In summary, if Hank Hill was a real person, his name would be Dickie Jauron! 🤠 https://buffalonews.com/opinion/editorial/jauron-ever-the-humble-hero-returns-to-his-hometown/article_66061228-8c04-5f2b-b8d2-12dbaba917a3.html
  2. Even as one of Allen’s most strident apologists around here, I still have to get another few years of sustained excellence and deep playoff runs before just giving him that mantle—that disclaimer aside, he is without any doubt on that trajectory, and already eclipses the others on raw athleticism/talent ceiling…did I just hedge my bets enough?
  3. I’ll be happy with anything that’s not the white over blue combo!!
  4. I’m really not trying to give you a hard time, I just think saying Mac is going to be as good as Josh or better, by just pointing to Josh’s rookie year for comparison, misses the point of what was going on with Bills in 2018, is all.
  5. What’s sad is trying to troll Bills fans about a rookie season comparison that’s blind to what Josh/Mac had to work with—or would you say the rosters were comparable?
  6. @Sugar High JA17, the truth makes you resort to vomit emojis?
  7. Neither does accompanying roster strength, and totals spent in FA.
  8. Torture numbers and they’ll admit to anything. The context behind them matters however, and in this case, Josh had a burning tire fire of a roster with the Bills carrying 50+mill of Whaley bloated dead money to purge his rookie season! Conversely, Mac is the beneficiary of an unprecedented free agency spending spree by the Hoodie to accompany his rookie year with—seriously, you can’t be serious about this being a legit sample size comparison given the roster differential per rookie year.
  9. What a money-making racket for them! But let’s be real, if the Bills offered this up, best believe I’d be one of the suckers lining up for my certificate suitable for framing! Then all the “shareholders” could say snarky things on these boards like, “unless you’re an owner of this franchise, you don’t get to start new threads,” etc., etc…
  10. I think if the Bills had lost, the outcome would’ve certainly been used to justify “fire everyone” threads, or other extremes, so yes, why don’t we give it the same weight on the other extreme? Super Bowl or bust!!!
  11. I think our equipment managers will do a better job with Allen’s choice of cleats should we have to play in Tenn again this year!
  12. So maybe Bojo’s holds were an issue after all?
  13. As much as I viscerally dislike TB12, it’s a stretch at this point to say it was the Hoodie and not Brady…imho. Hoodie lifetime is a middling coach in terms of the numbers w/o Brady. Meanwhile Tom is out there getting yet another SB last year? Hoodie went all-Yankees on the FA’s this year—that says it’s more Kraft than anything else responsible for being above .500 this year. Also, did you see who was all on the Bills 2018 roster when McD squeezed 6 wins out of a group worse pound for pound than probably the 0-16 Lions? McD is not to ever be underestimated, imho.
  14. This almost made me feel sad for the fans…but then I remembered they root for a Jersey team that claims to be from New York! 🧐
  15. Very happy for him, and the Bills who clearly have given him a professional equivalent of a family that he’s also excelling in—this roster is literally littered with players who genuinely seem to care about each other and making the sum of the whole greater than its individual parts!
  16. How much more deadly would the K-Gun have been if JK would’ve had the benefit of such calls when he was getting hit in the knees by the likes of Ken Norton Jr in the Super Bowl, or those crazy Steeler lines of the 90’s…just sayin’!
  17. Why yes, yes indeed…no guarantees they ever will
  18. What a great statement W, especially because, we still left points and turnovers on the field—our ceiling is beyond SB caliber!! Lookout for when we really hum on all cylinders…
  19. We.Will.Win. Because there is simply no other option. The ships have been burned on the beaches and we are ready to march on East Rutherford!
  20. Yawn 🥱…confidential terms of settlement not to be disclosed at some point within the next 6-12 months imho…
  21. That’s definitely not been their M.O. thus far; and I remember all the talk being this is a 2-4 week injury and it’s been 2 games plus a bye week? I hope this doesn’t stall out his development overall however!
  22. Breida fresh legs off the bench to power some speed to the edge outside? 🤪
  23. Ok, and we were down 2 starters on our OL with a 3rd playing out of position, and missing Knox…I don’t hear the national media giving us a pass for that either!
  24. Don’t gloss over the Titans loss (with Henry) to the Jests—who also share the same W/L record with said Jags…
