    I honestly think fantasy talk is more interesting than a lot of regular sports talk. At least the fantasy stuff gets you some interesting stats that you wouldn't hear otherwise. I'd rather listen to that than listening to the Skip Baylesses and Stephen A Smith's of the world.

    Bamboo shoots under fingernails is more enjoyable than hearing Skip Bayless or Stephen Smith Talk about anything.  Just sayin,

    One of the great sports experiences is a summer evening game at Dodger Stadium. What surprises many people is that it is the third oldest stadium in MLB after Fenway and Wrigley. Because a place is "old" doesn't necessarily mean it's crappy.

    So true! Saw a game out there a couple of months back, Dodgers stadium is very nice place to catch a game, as is New Era.

    Interesting article, but what's with the gratuitous reference to the old stadium?  

    Maybe because it’s an old stadium, I don’t think anyone could say it’s a bad stadium for game watching, in fact just the opposite. It is just that it lacks the amenities that have been in demand throughout the NFL for some number of years now. Me I wish they could transplant the stadium into downtown Buffalo as it is, but reality says otherwise.

     

    Nice article, up beat and did not avoid the issues of a young QB finding his way.

     

    Go Bills!!!

    all of them

     

    But i'm pretty sure this has been discussed multiple times.

    I’m pretty sure every possible subject had been discussed hundreds of times, what are you wanting, 50 threads max, that are 400 pages long? Chill a bit, and work the flow...

     

    Go Bills!!!

    The average listener doesn’t care about the Atlanta Falcons, etc. Start talking about Julio Jones fantasy implications and they do.

     

    You may not care for fantasy football but its  appeal goes far beyond a “child’s game.”

     

    I’m just not sure Mike Schopp and Jeremy White are who I’d turn to for fantasy advice, though. Guys can barely discuss data-driven stats for their own team let alone the league.

    I have never listened to those two guys, ever.  Not sure why those two are relevant in any way.  Discussion of data driven facts is and has been fully available without pretend football, it has been going on pretty much since football started. but to each his/her own. For me it is on par with fantasy driveway shoveling. But do enjoy if it’s your thing.

     

    Go real football Bills!!!!

     

     

  6. It used to be, and still is in some instances, now a days it’s importants is in evaluation of technics and schemes, as well as individual performance of the players. There are some who feel preseason games are not practice or of any importants, but they are wrong, though they try through a disjointed thought process to validate their opinions, they are still wrong. ?

     

    Go Bills!!!

    Lol. Really might have to. Basically disgusted over these teams. As well as WGR already talking like 9-7 is unattainable. 

     

    Very very frustrated. Big Allen and McDermott fan. 

     

    I just cant do another ***** rebuild. Won’t be sticking around for that 

    First off, no more WGR!! Never ever listen to WGR!! This alone will help your psyche considerably, second, see #1, third rinse and repeat.

     

    Go Bills!!!

  8. It. Will happen at some point, at the same time, pot will not be tested for anymore, total team will go up to 63, and they will be able to dress 5 additional players on game day, and everyone will get a raise. Or something very close to this.

     

    As Fans we really don’t care about players health in any real way, lip service sure, but that’s about it, so that’s a non issue for fans.

     

    Go Bills!!!

    He deserves nothing.  He needs to earn a spot.

     

    No way he makes the 53.

     

    In games he has not shown he has the potential to grow.  I think the Bills need a practice squad QB if they carry only 2 on the active roster.  They may prefer another team's cut over Jackson.

     

     

    Just a thought on your statement, how many #3 QBs don’t need everything TJ needs? Imo All #3 QBS are really bad compared to the #1 or the #2 QB, so that’s s given on any team. So why not PS him and get him a QB tutor? 

     

    No no dog in the hunt on my side by the way.

     

    Go Bills!!!

     Our HC and GM are two losers,  this team wasted money on endless mediocre players in free agency,  we have very few if any true playmakers and they hype mediocre free-agent signings.  Quality signings are always best over quantity,    

    You sound a bit upset and bitter, I don’t think you’ve fully expressed yourself, just let it all out, you will feel better, ?

    I don't necessarily disagree with you.  But history tells us something different in regards to Coach McDermott and game management.  Until I see him do something different, I will be skeptical that we actually will.  We're going into year 3 ...

     

    Personally I don't care how we do it as long as we win.

    Winning is indeed the answer.

    We'll see.  I suspect we'll run a lot still.  Especially in the 2nd half with a lead.  We did sign Frank Gore and Yeldon and draft a kid in the 3rd.

     

    I know some are hoping for a fancy passing offense but I'm not convinced.  McDermott did make the playoffs with the Bills playing ball control and sitting on the lead in the 2nd half and playing good D.  Until I see something different I'm going to think he sticks with what has worked for him in the past.

    I’m not saying we won’t be running the ball a fair bit, but if we want to sniff the post season we better be a damn good passing team, and not just in the first half of games, this team needs to not let up on opponents by playing not to lose after we get a lead.  That is a bad recipe for a team trying to be on an upswing.

    You're right that ultimately the only person who can make Allen better is Allen.  But you don't think it's helpful to watch the GOAT? 

     

    I imagine Allen admiring Brady's footwork and committing to working harder on his own.  Or seeing Brady check down and thinking, "Hmm.  I would have made a different decision.  Let me think about that."  And so on.  I can't imagine anything bad happening from studying Brady's film but I can imagine Allen getting better because of the film study.  

     

    I'm glad we have a QB who's committed to his craft.

    This ^^^

     

    Why is it some think that learning the QB position would not include watching how the best QBs do the job?  It’s not an osmosis thing, one needs to see how it’s done, then go through the steps to make sure you’re doing correctly, it’s a process, and it goes on throughout a QBs career.

     

    Go Bills!!!
