I'm putting another vote in for both Ty and McGovern.
I don't watch/understand line play enough to diagram the difference, but his move to center contributed to the line getting much better. Ty....he is just amazing at what he does. He is a back up running back, might be the fastest guy on the team, and might have the best hands on the team.
Fun Fact: The Buffalo Bills website still lists Amari Cooper as second string behind Mack Hollins. Not sure what is going on there.
At this point, I consider him a powerplay specialist. Imagine a forward that only played 5-6 minutes a night, but was on the first line powerplay unit. His total stat numbers will never compare to your best first liners. He is not out there enough so the total stats will look bad and the contract will look bad, but a guy that scores on the powerplay can win you a playoff series.
If we win the Superbowl and Von has 3 sacks and a bunch of pressures in the playoffs while playing 15 snaps a game...he'll be a great signing.
I remember it as a bit of a fluke. A reporter was giving a report and there was practice going on in the background. Apparently the Bills ran a shuttle run play and they had never done that all year. Johnson saw it and prepared his defense for it. If I remember right, that was the Thurman fumble play, but to connect the fumble to that preparation seems like a stretch.
Agreed. OP, think of a saint bernard. What position would that dog play? That is a LB dog, for sure.
Of course, now maybe you'll get saint and Christian mixed up. 😀
I'm with you OP. Although better than the alternative, its terrible getting old. Youth is wasted on the young.
This. Their philosophy is the right one, but you need to counter punch against those that are running so well that it is almost like passing. Instead they seem to stubbornly stick to what is not working in those situations. It was like the NE wind game that we lost where it was obvious that NE did not want to throw.
Since I'm about a decade younger than you, there is something from the first video that took me by surprise:
"The sheer speed of (Merlin) Olson" is not a sentence that I ever imagined being spoken.
I guess we all had glory days.
Shaw has a good point in that stats can be deceiving and manufactured by situation, but I am with Royale and eball for two reasons:
1. His stats are stupid high. The comparison to Edelman and Welker's stats reveal that. Some of his stats might be manufactured by usage, but it is hard to explain all of it considering how high they are.
2. He passes the eye test. Who doesn't like watching him with the ball? He is exciting in a way that few Bills receivers ever have been.
I'm not watching tape on him, but he was once awesome. At this point, I want him only if Beane wants him. If we get him, it will signal to me that Beane and McD see that there is something still there that could help us. I absolutely will not question them if they let him pass.
I always thought the "everybody eats" phrase was a response to all the questions players and coaches got about what are we going to do without a true #1 WR.
I am oddly impressed by this post. So many things...the watch info is one thing, but I did not even know there were douchey watches, much less that there was an epicenter for them, much less that it was Miami, although it kind of makes sense.
Speaking as someone who got CMC in a league without Mason, it is not always as simple as that. How long do you wait before getting the handcuff? I waited one round too long.
So, the article wasn't bad. Thanks for sharing.
The comments, however, were slit your wrists depressing, unfunny, and unhinged. Ugh. What a depressing way to live. Seriously, medical professionals need to be available to provide help for them.
