  1. I didn't know Larry Nance was calling NFL games. He was a great Cleveland Cavalier on some good teams that couldn't get past Jordan and the Bulls.
  2. 1a and 1b is a reasonable take. Yes Hill is a loss but Smith-Schuster went off for 5 catches and 113 yards. They still have other complimentary receivers as well. The real difference is the defenses. Bills are giving up 11 pts/game less than KC, have 5 more sacks, and all importantly Bills have 13 takeaways to the Chiefs 5. Better yet Bills have 10 INT to Chiefs only 1. Fumbles are more random. INT are a better measure of a team's ability to take the ball away. Bills D is legit this year. They can effectively rush 4 or even three and drop back into coverage. Yes sometimes that means they get dinked and dunked down the field but it forces the other team to be nearly perfect on offense. If the opponent does not have a HOF QB and TE that is really hard to do.
  3. I still have Gonzalez and Gronk as 1 and 2 all-time but by the end of his career Kelce may be the best of them all.
  4. 6 sacks in six games on a limited snap count is exceeding expectations for all except maybe Watt and Bosa. He is playing the run well too. Massive upgrade over Hughes and Hughes wasn't even that bad. Jerry just couldn't finish where Miller is finishing.
  5. Ford sucking so bad has set the OL back a few years and forced them to pay out too much in FA. Next draft needs to address OL early and multiple picks. Thats only possible if they bring back Edmunds,Poyer, and if they feel Hamlin can play safety long term. Otherwise it will be defense again.
  6. He lost a top 2 WR and his current and last HC are trash. Waste of HOF talent.
  7. Ask Bryce Paup if Miller should go on WOF? Defesive player if the tear and second all time single season sack leader from Bills. I get it. If Bilks win SB Miller will be a key reason why. That said Dawkins,Allen, Diggs,Poyer,Hyde,White,Milano, and hopefully Knox and Edmunds would all be equally if not more deserving.
  8. The Steeler/Denver issue was the DB has sickle cell trait. Being at altitude can trigger a sickle crisis which is incredibly painful and can cause stroke and other organ damage.
  9. Only guy that keeps Allen from winning MVP may be Diggs. He is having an amazing season.
  10. The NFL had to have altered the balls. That would have been good from 70.
  11. First I thought it was shoulder but you may be right
  12. Edmunds has made more hard tackles this season than ever before. Nice job
  13. Because Mahomes throws it forward. That was a backwards option
  14. Singletary is getting 8 yards a carry. Keep running the dam ball and keep Moss off the field
  15. I beleive it was Darrelle Revis who said, you cover elite TEs with CBs. Nobody has the size and speed combo to hang with Kelce even Edmunds. Edmunds has the size but does not have the coverage skill to hang with Kelce. But several CBs can run with him and cover him. Play him man to man with a corner and a deep shell for everyone else.
  16. I'm going to go with Spencer Brown. Chiefs can rush the passer. Dawkins has been superb. If Brown can hold his own on the edge that allows the backs and the TEs to get out in patterns more. If he can play solid, Allen will have time to pick apart the back 7.
  17. Snyder is scum but I hope he takes down Goodell and some of the other owners as well. Would love to see the Spygate details come out.
  18. Hyde and Poyer both played CB their first year in the league and moved to Safety year two with their prior teams. Will Benford or someone else move to safety. Who knows. Will Hyde or Poyer be back?
  19. I agree this year should be all in. Hell last year they should have been all in too. And if Hyde had not gotten hurt there would be no discussion. But with Hyde out it is a legitimate discussion to consider what is the best combination of 5 players for the secondary. It could be as simple as Tre at CB and Hamlin at FS end of story. But no one knows how Tre will play coming off the knee injury. No one expected a 6th round pick to beat out Elam. So yes, trading anyone makes no sense. Where you choose to line guys up on Sunday is reasonable to discus especially as we see how White performs in the coming weeks.
  20. And the Roughing the passer in the Ravens game? That was a gift for the Bills. Its just bad officiating at times. No agendas.
