The timing didn’t make sense. Some speculated that they were doing this as a sign of support to give him confidence.

Missed an opportunity? I don’t remember ever hearing that the Bills were in on Yannick....well other than posts in this forum.

Zach Cunningham signs extension with Houston
JohnNord replied to NewEra's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Isn’t Cunningham the dude that made the huge hit on Josh Allen after Mitch Morse and Dawson Knox ran by him. Thinking about that play drives me nuts -
Gruden tears into Nate Peterman [language]
JohnNord replied to PromoTheRobot's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I will never understand the hatred for Peterman. He wasn’t a good QB. It shouldn’t be a surprise. But the obsession with taking about had badly he sucked is bizarre. Also Gruden basically told him to hurry up at the line. Not the tongue lashing I was expecting -
It’s a mix of personality and on-field results. Fitzpatrick is a smart, quick witted guy who would do silly things like stop shaving during the season. His interviews were always a lot of fun!. Tyrod is a tremendous person but very soft-spoken. He comes off as likeable but not in the same was as Fitz. So personality wise, it’s easier to see how fans would be draw toward Fitzpatrick. In terms of style, Fitzpatrick put the Bills in positions to compete with teams above their level. There were multiple times, he single handedly kept the Bills in the game. He also engineered one of the biggest upsets versus New England, and he essentially became a hero that day. That’s his signature win. Tyrod had his moments but he never really had that one signature victory against a good team ik a shootout. Also what holds Tyrod back is his 2017 season. His risk-averse style of play coupled with a conservative and antiquated offense resulted in some painful football. Also I can’t remember it off the top of my head, but Tyrod’s WL in close games was really terrible

You aren’t completely wrong about fans not making personnel decisions. But I think your memory of Kelly’s performance was not as strong in actuality. I remember Kelly being somewhat Rusty that game. He threw for 177 yards and 2 INT and he struggled to get the team in the end zone (same thing happened the next week in SB27) He hardly “dismantled” them and got a huge boost from Thurman and Kenneth Davis both rushing and receiving and course a great defensive performance. I don’t think it’s inconceivable that Reich could have led the team to victory that day. To be fair the majority of this work was mop up duty with 2nd team players or meaningless games at the end of year.

Haha right... -

I think we need to exorcise those demons. Someone from Buffalo needs to buy it and burn it in Hammer’s Lot!!! -
Checking in on Jets: O-Line and WRs STRUGGLING
JohnNord replied to Rigotz's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Remember how bad Brian Walters sucked? -
I think they are just kicking the tires here. From what I’ve read Tyrell Dodson has been very impressive and could solidly a role as backup LB. The Bills stuck with him through a domestic abuse arrest, so they have to see something in him.

Bills tabbed to go 15 - 1 by blogger
JohnNord replied to stuvian's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
A lot of his predictions are terrible. Bills 15-1? That’s a little lofty IMO, but let’s say that happens... he had NE finishing 14-2!!!!! When is the last time a 14-2 team finished in second in their division? ??? -
Rivera always seems like a really good guy. I’m wishing the best for him

Would YOU pay for a ‘Bills Network’?
JohnNord replied to TheyCallMeAndy's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
It depends.... it PSE was the one behind this network then probably not. The archived footage would be cool and that would be the only reason why I would subscribe. I would have no desire to watch “The Chris Brown Show” in the morning or “Bills Flashbacks with Maddie Glab” or “The Super Bowl Years” hosted by Steve Tasker. Outside of the “Embedded” series, current programming put out of PSE leaves a lot to be desired -
Bills have Ziggy Ansah on their radar
JohnNord replied to BillsMafi$'s topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I think the Bills like Murphy a lot better than a lot fans do -
Dolphins expected to go with Fitzpatrick as the starter
JohnNord replied to Greg S's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Early in the season is when he’s at his most dangerous -
8-18-20 Any Training camp news?
JohnNord replied to Don Otreply's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Sounds like an up and down day for Allen. Missed some throws but made a few nice ones. Diggs and Moss have been as good as advertised -
NBC shoot going on at Hammer's Lot
JohnNord replied to PromoTheRobot's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Who is Ranting Ron? His name has been coming up a lot online in Bills Twitter -
There was no chance of that happening. Gore looked great when the season began he straight-up sucked toward the end. How many times did he need to see Gore run right into defenders at the LOS for no gain? Is the lone partially to blame? Probably, but so was Gore’s straight ahead running style. Singletary had more success running behind the same line.

Hogan developed into a good complimentary WR but I think injuries and age have taken a toll on him. Not playing with the greatest QB ever probably doesn’t help your production either. Probably not a bad signing for a street FA in August, but then again - there’s a reason he was a street FA in August
