  1. Great Bills fan and a real gentleman. Sincere condolences to his family and close friends.
  2. Coleman doesn’t need that much separation and Shakir gets open on every 3rd down. When Cooper gets acclimated he’s proven to be open and the TEs are big, physical and fast. Kincaid can get 6 catches a game with no problem. With Cook, a matchup nightmare for LBs and Safeties, what are you worried about.
  3. It’s still second guessing a trade that was short circuited by serious injury when Diggs was healthy his whole career. Houston wanted a veteran star for this season to be a steadying influence on a young receiver room and 2nd year QB. According to his coaches and teammates he did that in a big way.Shortening the financial long term hit was beneficial to the team because they can retain him with a tag or an appropriate contract depending on his performance. Diggs can still have a positive affect even if he’s not playing. I think the benefit of signing a star receiver sends a message to your team that you’re all in which helps with FAs.
  4. Houston will get a Diontae Johnson, Calvin Ridley, or Mike Williams.
  5. Absolutely, most objective observers felt it was a game changing trade for the Texans. Diggs was a security blanket for their 2nd year QB prior to his injury. He brings an edge that is usually a positive for a year or two.
  6. I’m disgusted by Diggs as much as the next guy but career threatening injuries are not something to lump into roster decision mess ups. Diggs was a vital contributor for them and that injury is tragic. I hope he comes back strong. He’s good for the game.
  7. Don’t over analyze his targets. The game plan was running it down their throat with Cook, who looks like one of the top 5 backs in the NFL. Then getting Shakir on the edge where he looked awesome and finally the TEs on crossers and Coleman in man coverage. I’d say Cooper who commands double coverage helped all these assets excel.
  8. Bills will be favored in all those games except Detroit. It’s crucial that we finish with the 2 seed because beating Baltimore and Houston on the path to KC will be challenges we don’t need. I believe we will ultimately beat anyone in our building if we’re healthy. The game that scares me is LA along with Detroit.
  9. If you’re thinking that a blowout road win over a tough opponent could result in a universally positive reaction forget it, not on this forum. This team is becoming something very different from teams before and their obvious shortcomings. First, their offensive makeup and mentality is run effectively to set up the QB with the best arm talent in football. With 2 quality TEs, 3 complimentary talented wideouts and an OL that is getting better as the season progresses, our passing game is tremendous. Cook, Davis and Johnson are perfect for how Brady wants to call plays. Momentum is starting to define this team and their confidence level. Sadly the pre snap penalties are still a problem and our kicker can’t be trusted in a big spot, but if you’re being objective, this team has a different look and already other than the clunker in Baltimore, they were better than their opponent in every game.
  10. This guy is the MVP of our defense. He provides consistent pressure and a relentless chase down of QBs, RBs and even underneath receivers. I was wrong about his value and maybe the extra motivation of being in a contract year is part of the equation, he must be resigned and with anything from Miller we have a chance to be great defense. Bernard, Williams, Oliver, Jones, Johnson,Rapp and 2 good corners. Every week they play better, scary.
  11. True, but they haven’t had an edge rusher or a #1 like Reddick and Adams. I think they’re better with Rodgers and Saleh’s departure is a big plus. Love to see an L before they get their mojo. I understand you can’t trust them historically but they have better personnel.
  12. Good take, gotta have tonight’s game. Cinn. defense is shaky this year and Pitt. is not good enough offensively. Let see about tonight’s game.
  13. Adams and Reddick added to bolster both sides of the ball sounds like the Jets are likely to be right there for the last playoff spot. If they can protect the old man, they are better than Cinn., LA or Pitt.
  14. Bishop is soft and green, and Edwards is mired in Sean’s doghouse for some reason. Mind boggling that Hamlin has been the starter for the 1st third of the season. Sean has blood on his hands if he doesn’t start using Edwards. Is he waiting for Edwards to demand a trade before he gets him on the field. When guys miss practice with an ailment you know they’re making a statement.
  15. NFL ratings are indicating that even more people are watching. Perhaps your problem is the overexposure caused by so many games available. The Bills/Jets game was unusually sloppy but very entertaining because it meant so much to both teams. I disagree about questioning the roster construction because the Diggs trade was necessary and we didn’t actually know how the receiving corps would work out. The fact that Cooper became available after 6 games because of Browns ineptitude and Beane jumped on the best fit available is genius.If you lose interest that’s fine because there are 4 or 5 young people, encouraged by fanatical family members ready to take your place. NFL football is the most insidious addiction that’s captured the collective soul of the American sports and gambling fans in history. Hopefully you can replace your sports watching preferences with something else that can keep you engaged for 31/2 hours at a time, but I doubt it.
