  1. What are you people talking about? There's not one single person in this thread calling him soft, complaining about him or criticizing Stevie Johnson.
  2. Aaron Swartz and Barrett Brown might disagree with that. I think the reach of the prosecutorial arm of the federal government is currently exceeding its grasp

  4. He crossed the line from smart conservative to scared conservative
  5. I thought the first one was weak but he definitely went high with the crown on the second one
  6. There's appoint of diminishing returns with that. I think he reached it over a quarter ago
  7. Wierd how you can sustain offense when you show a little bit of diversity I wonder if this kind of trend could catch on around the league?
  8. Hacketts turtle impression with 3 minutes left in the half set the tone for the rest of this one

  10. The only thing he won was the last 12 seconds of most rounds

  12. I never thought he would get out of camp. Everybody went crazy for some monster shot he laid on a 160lb slot receiver floating over the middle, but when you looked at the rest of his tape it looked to me like a guy who played with minimal pop or functional strength. He's nothing more than OK depth for the Bills, but I never thought he had a real chance to even make the roster.
  13. I never saw Vince Young as a good pro but Limas Sweed definitely fooled me too; I thought he was an NFL player for sure. While we're on UT receivers, I also thought Roy Williams was a lock as a big-time NFL player from the moment I watched him dominating people as a Freshman. I'll also throw in Stephon Lefors who I still don't understand why he didn't make it. For current Bills, I'll go with Nigel Bradham who I didn't think had enough ass to hold up in the NFL.
  14. I don't know what they were talking and laughing about, but I got a kick out of Mario repeatedly and emphatically saying "F*** that!" on the sidelines right after he had blown up another Tackle and tried to chop Tannehill's arm off. That was good stuff.
  15. I thought Hawk Time had possibly killed Arguello in the ring at the end of that fight.
  16. I don't know about the stats or the rankings, but I'm beginning to lose count of the number of times that Fred has put this team on his back and powered them out of a tough spot. I have no doubt his wallet looks like this.
  17. Hopefully it will help him 20 years down the road when he's playing with his grandkids instead of drooling into his tapioca ; - )
  18. You ever hear the story of the first and only time the Stillers went to scout Lambert at Kent State? Because the practice field was damaged and they couldn't utilize it that day, they ran a non-contact practice in a nearby gravel parking lot. Lambert was being himself and running around like a lunatic and diving to make stops all over this gravel parking lot while in a t-shirt and shorts. Apparently he spent much of the practice picking chunks of granite out of his arms, legs and face between plays. One of Art Rooney's kids was the scout that day and after watching that display of mean, he somehow convinced the old man to take a shot on a 195lb linebacker.
  19. I think it's also worth mentioning that in addition to that, The Club has got to be playing havoc with both his balance and quickness. Trying to play corner at a high level while carrying a pumpkin in your hand is damned near impossible.
  20. If you see somebody calling another member of this community an idiot, I'd be interested to hear about it. Please use the "Report" function which can be found at the bottom of every post.
  21. He wasn't blocked into him. If you catch a replay I think you'll see that the only reason he contacted him was because he intentionally threw his chest forward to bump him well after the ball was gone. Luck got rid of the ball when the guy was still 4-5 steps away from him; he was clearly in control of any leftover momentum he had and I don't think there's any doubt he bumped him on purpose. It wasn't a Turkey Jones classic but it's also not 1977 and you're not allowed to knock QB's around just for the fun of it anymore.
  22. I wouldn't call it "rough" but it was clear that he chest bumped Luck from behind a full 2 seconds after the ball was gone. If it wasn't a cheap shot, it was still incredibly stupid.
  23. The play you referenced was an example of the atrocious technique that we see form him on occasion, and that I had hopes would disappear with the change of defensive coaches. I'm not going to give up that hope because of one play. In fact I'm not even going to pass any judgement on Gilmore's play this year until he can play without The Club. As for right now, he has no business whatsoever being on the field in that condition and I hold the coaching staff responsible for the boneheaded decision to put him out there two weeks in a row.
