So you admit the NFL strayed from standard operating procedure to take something away from Buffalo? Best quality in an officiating body is consistency, which by your own admission they blatantly strayed from. I'm sure every helmet to helmet hit, low hit on a QB etc. Isn't intentional but the rules are the rules. Call it by the book and officiating is easy.

Patrick Surtain Jr or Pitts are the only 2 I would even consider it for. Then you ask yourself "do we win the SB if they are on the roster?" Answer is probably no, so I wouldn't do it this year. Probably would only do it for a can't miss edge rusher which isn't there this year. Just my opinion of course.

Maybe I'm a rare bird here but I never get ads that are invasive. I never have to clear anything, I'm a mobile android user almost exclusively on this site though. People have to make their money somehow, if we all worked for free work wouldn't last long lol.

I can agree, and my intention was not to defend him. Just simply we all know public opinion moved way quicker than the judicial system.

Yeah Urban was always a win at all costs guy, imo he never cared about the kids. Not sure how his NFL stint will go. Good to hear Day is well respected, I was always curious, I live in my SEC bubble during college football. Though good coaching is not that common in the SEC.

Watson shouldn't be surprised by court of public opinion, it's more prevalent now than ever. And I still don't know if he did anything wrong, could have. Might not have, who knows.

Serious question Yolo as I know you are the king of OSU sports. Is Ryan Day a good coach for the program or benefitting from the recruiting system set up by Urban? Full disclosure I live in Alabama and am a Tide fan, but this is by no means a trolling attempt. I just get a very small sample size of OSU games every year so it's hard to make a call on him, obviously he wins.

Completely agree, Vontae probably epitomizes the reputation we had of no one wanting to play for buffalo lol. It wasn't like that though, he was just done, that move cost him alot of money and he didn't care, he was done. Guys like Benjamin and Maybin were just lazy and arrogant, couldn't stand them. Even Lynch, I liked him, he was too emotional and got his feelings hurt by the Buffalo media and bailed on his teammates but at least in his mind he had a justified reason. I kinda think his girl is eh, but hey I don't have to be with her, a bit young for me anyways.

I would understand mini-camps being virtual as really it isn't that big of a deal and maybe some guys that want the vaccine haven't had an opportunity to get it yet. Training camp is a big deal for younger guys and I would think it's ridiculous to do it virtual. I don't have to show up to Training camp (unless you need me coach 🤣) so at the end of the day it's their choice. Also being as we returned most of our team we would weather that storm better than most.

Was mostly speaking of keeping g the guys that were free agents (Milano etc.) I know the restructures were just that.

Well, I don't do studies and I won't pretend to know them. I'm in Florida, everything is fine. My wife is in the medical field, if you need an ICU bed you can get one, guaranteed. This is real life experience in Florida, I'm sure you can find a study that can lead you wherever you want to go with some arbitrary number and a clear path to where you want to get to. In real life though, everything is fine. We don't even wear masks or social distance. I get it not everyone agrees and I'm not speaking ill of you if you do those things.

It was keeping our own, but imo it still counts as free agency. We all had eyes on who could replace people, instead he kept who we had that were good players. None of us thought that was possible, or at least I seen no one predict it.

He definitely pulled off a free agency no one seen coming. It was so good no one even suggested it as a dream scenario.

As someone who lives in the south alabama coastal Beach area, 20 minutes from Florida which I'm in constantly, I promise you it is no where near the badlands post apocalyptic landfill people think it is lol. Life is moving along just fine.

Fair statements, it was not an ideal setup for him last season no doubt, but we live in a results based world. Plenty of defensive players make it work in less than ideal situations.

That's something you say after you disprove a statement/theory...what did you disprove?

We can't all be locked up like NY.

I hope it's packed stadiums, if the vaccination is available (and it works) I don't see any reason not to. Everyone will have the opportunity to get the Vax by then if they choose to, if not that's on them.

Need alot less servers if that happens.

Seems most government agencies (White house administration, WHO etc.) Have come out against these Vax cards, might be difficult for the NFL to require it, but who knows. I'd like to see fans back in the seats but I personally don't go to games in person very much so not a big deal to me.

I live in the south as well, I feel bad for people who live in states that are going to require a vaccination card. HIPAA laws are going away I suppose. 😳.

Draft picks are great in April, in Sept-Feb they are just guys trying to find their way in the league. Not discounting what good draft picks can do, but I wouldn't panic over a bunch of rookies.

Sad story, but you will never end this in Pro Sports or life. I don't condone it, I have a daughter and obviously I wouldn't want her done this way in the slightest. They are given employment based off athletic ability, not critical thinking skills. I won't make excuses for the guy, if it's proven he should be excused from the league. That's the only recourse, show you won't tolerate it regardless of talent and it will stop some from acting this way, but not all.

After watching this it has reminded me that McBeane is not getting nearly enough money, pay them extra so we never have to see these type of games again. Even a win feels like a loss when your team is that bad.

Fair enough, I haven't paid their FA too much attention and didn't realize they had gotten all that OL.
