Terrible drop.
Its preseason, but we've seen that way too many times from Zay. Cost the team 6 points.
Yeah, that’s a big deal during the regular season. Zay has cost this team wins and points during his time here. Players all make mistakes, but Zay’s habit of making game altering mistakes needs to be corrected quickly.

Cause he is a TD machine... He may struggle adjusting at first being an undrafted rookie. But he has a good of shot at becoming a good player at this level than anyone that went undrafted this year.
You have to wonder how much of a chance he’ll be given to struggle. Undrafted guys need to show something faster than others.

The five is part of his name. 5th generation of his name.
Yeah, I just don’t get why some NFL players need to make that known on their jersey. I thought Roman numerals after names were reserved for legal documents.

Sills V jersey reads like Silly when he is running. It seems to fit.
Glad someone noticed. I really don’t get the point of the 5.

I could see your point if he looked like he was taking it seriously but it looks to me like he is just playing around and having fun.
I really dont see why that would bother anyone.
I hear you. Personally, I just find it gross that he gets to run around having fun after getting busted at a spa in Fla with no worries. If a star player committed the same act, they’d pay a steep price with both league discipline and public opinion. He’s worried about freeing Meek Mill, yet the players in his league receive treatment that hold them to different behavioral standards than ownership. I don’t really care about the spa garbage, I just think it accentuates some unfair standards that players are held to.

Ultimately, everyone’s different and if it works for their relationship, it’s hard for me to judge. Plenty of couples out there do things that would never work for me.
its entirely possible he’s a caring guy and his wife’s just not into having a real partner. Sometimes the right people find each other.
Plus, high likelihood she’s not married to him if he isn’t an NFL coach.

...are we REALLY that effed up that berating a 78 yer old widower is having some fun in his life?.....or is it solely reserved because he's the Pats owner?........can we be sinking that low and that fast?.......testament to a societal mess and save the cheater crap......SMH.......
People have always had opinions on what others say and do. Gossip and chatter are as old as mankind. Attributing the fact that I find Kraft’s antics funny and disingenuous are not a “testament to a societal mess”. It’s simply some of our opinions. He can do whatever he wants, but pretending to be young and hip simply wouldn't be style. That’s probably why I find it off putting.

I’m kind of with Tipster here. I HATE when people try to reinvent themselves. Kraft, inevitably got stuffed in lockers throughout his high school years. He ended up with some money and then tried to become the coolest guy in the room. However, you see how awkward it looks and realize he’s the same guy that was stuffed in lockers some 55 years earlier. The only difference is Bon Jovi is now 7 feet away from this nerd.
You just summed up my feelings perfectly. Nothing wrong with having fun, but things like dancing with Cardi B and getting involved in the Meek Mill situation make Kraft look like an old man who’s trying to be hip and relevant. People of all ages are entitled to fun, but some of it seems slightly attention seeking. My thoughts are also clouded by the fact he owns the Pats.

If you were 80 years old and worth billions, you'd be doing the same stupid stuff!
Nothing wrong with having fun at any age, but singing Livin on a Prayer with JBJ and a bunch of random B listers doesn’t make Kraft as cool as he thinks he is.

Who wants a 31 year old 5’10 WR who puts his stats over all else?
His attitude is questionable, but he skills are not. Are pointing to his height as a reason to doubt him? I hope not, because he’s been an elite pro receiver for quite some time. His height is the least of any concerns at this point.

Just listen to what Fletcher was saying to Edmunds. Dareus exhibit A.
I am not naive and I will tell you its not ALL about money for every player out there. Just like countless other people who continue to do low paying jobs that have personal emotional benefits and also people who quit high paying jobs that are awful.
It's not ALL about money. Don't be naive.
All very true, but loving the money a career brings doesn't always correlate with performing poorly at that job.

It’s also sad that some women will choose to hang around creeps who happen to have money. Their lust for a piece of that life is too much to overcome. No one deserves to die over sex, but let’s be honest here. There are often blatant warning signs in these types of relationships, yet they continue to hang around. You’re correct that we don’t know if Merriman had anything to do with this, but someone did. It does still take two to tango, and there’s only so much one can do if someone wants to hang around a sleazy element because they lack a backbone.
I know plenty of women who hang around creeps who don’t have money.

Nailed again! What has Darby and Bradham ever won? Oh wait. What good teams has Sammy ever played on? Oh. What about that loser Hogan? Oh no. And don’t get started on that chump Robert Woods?
Clearly those guys were holding the Bills back!!!
Woods is the only player out of those guys I’d want on the current roster. Otherwise, I’d take what we have over any of those guys. Darby, Bradham, and Hogan are all meh, while Watkins injuries never allow him to live up to his potential. Being on a good team and being responsible for its success are not synonymous.

That’s a great quote. I think a guy like Leaf gets a lot more chances to turn it around than a “normal” person though. But props to him anyways.
another athlete liek this is Chris Herren. I encourage people to check out his document on ESPN.
I agree, and I hope he does well with this opportunity. However, the average felon most certainly is rarely offered a well paying professional career opportunity, regardless of qualifications.

I would agree with that. Whatever hope there was for EJ was destroyed by St Doug.
I see this narrative a lot, many who follow college ball knew EJ was a disappointment at FSU, so it was difficult to ever imagine him being a good pro QB under any coaching staff.

This better be a wake up call for him.
Sadly, I don’t think wake up calls exist for some of these guys. You’d think the millions being deposited into their bank account would be enough to consider a wake up call everyday.

I agree with everything you said. It was very frustrating, because the Bills would have waltz'd over this Colts team but the snow evened the playing field. (Oh and Tyrod was injured as well).
Yep, it is silly as all games are important when making the playoffs, but I thought this was the most pivotal play in the most pivotal game.
But hey, if we have to play in another Blizzard again this season, we have a 1-2 punch at running back (Gore/McCoy) that is well equipped to weather the elements.
I’m actually not convinced the snow didn’t help us that game. Had the weather been decent, Peterman probably throws 7 picks and we lose.

That kind of talk is pure ignorance.
I’ve been all over the country. Western NY is one of the most beautiful areas out there. I get that the winters can be rough, but I’ll take Buffalo over Miami any ol’ day.
Winter is rough, but I wish all these self proclaimed intellectuals in the media would get it right. Buffalo (parts of it) can be exceptionally SNOWY. If you make fun of Buffalo for being cold, then you need to include the entire Midwest.

Rivers arm looked tired down the stretch.
Absolutely, and what’s most concerning is that last season wasn’t the first where Rivers appeared to struggle with this issue.

Seems a little early to say this about Lynn.
I just think that he needs more experience before he’ll be able to match up well against top notch coaches. Lynn doesn’t bring anything cutting edge to the table like many of the successful young coaches do. His job is all about getting the most from a super talented roster. I’m not sure that he’s ready to lead a champion in the short window he has before Rivers retires. With that said, I trust Rivers to show up in big games even less.

They weren't on the most important game of the year. The Chargers were utterly embarrased in Foxborough.
Yeah, the Chargers are really good, but I don’t trust Lynn or Rivers in big games.

...and look at some of the clowns drafted in the 1st over the last decade out of desperation that would NOT even have been UDFA's yesteryear......sad state of affairs for the QB spot IMO.....
I agree, there’s too much desperation when it comes to finding a QB. I’m just not drafting guys like Daniel Jones or Blake Bortles in spots where they go these days, but I can also understand with the position being have so importance in the league today.

...but would you say they are woefully overpaying for very good versus elite?...........
Yes, I think NFL teams have overpaid a few guys who were very good vs actually being elite. Guys like Derek Carr and Kirk Cousins come to mind. With that said, the majority of the best paid NFL QB’s are elite. I just see the trend of contract demands becoming greater every season, and QB’s are leading the charge. When I see the rumors of what Dak wants, it’d make me reconsider how I view the QB position if I were a GM. I’d never be afraid to let an average QB who I don’t believe will ever be elite test the free agent market. I’d rather draft someone with that potential, as opposed to overpaying for years of mediocrity.

Good Night / Bad Night - Pre-Season Game 1
in The Stadium Wall Archives
Posted · Edited by SirAndrew
Lots of good, and some not so great things we can take from that game. Allen continues to develop a better awareness with the mental aspect of the game. He has looked more in command each time he’s been on field since late last season.
Zay is a guy I’m concerned about. It seems like popular opinion regarding Zay’s performance has swayed in his favor since his rookie year. He’s made great progress since that season, but I still don’t trust him. Zay has always been best suited for the slot position. Slot receivers need to be sure handed. Zay doesn’t possess big play ability to make up for errors such as the red zone drop where he heard footsteps in the secondary. Those are huge plays when the games get real.
