  1. I agree on the day 3 flyer, especially if we get compensatory picks in round 5. However, I think both are gone after the season.
  2. The game was a pre-season game played in week 18. Here are some of the things we found out. 1) White and/or Trubisky might be replaced this off-season as the backup QBs despite both being under contract. Trubisky can be cut for a dead cap of 750K saving 2.5 million on next years cap. I haven't seen all the terms on White's new deal, but he looked terrible against NE. 2) Hamlin played 100% of the snaps. It's pretty clear that McD wanted Hamlin to get back up to game speed but is undecided who starts against the Broncos between him and Bishop. 3) Resting starters, staying healthy, team & individual accomplishments and getting guys their bonuses was more important than winning. Hollins, Martin and Miller earned bonuses, Cook got over 1000 yards & tied OJ with 16 rushing TDs, and the team went 30/30 on rushing and passing TDs. McD punted from the NE 35 to help Martin earn the bonus.
  3. GB will beat the Eagles. I also like the Chargers over Houston.
  4. Bengals fire their DC? Geez that makes sense.
  5. I’m not worried about the NFC teams. I’m worried about getting to the Super Bowl. Balt and KC will be hard enough. If we can get through them we can get through anyone. IMHO the playoffs are usually about QBs. Mahomes, Allen and Lamar are in the AFC. The only NFC QB that scares me is Love.
  6. I'll be happy for him as well. I have a friend who was an All-American as Tenn and briefly played in the NFL. We have often talked about playing in the league, how hard it is to stay and how little you earn if you are on the margins and the havoc it can cause on your body. I respect anyone who really makes a career of it (unless the play for the Fish or Jets.)
  7. Cody is making a career. Good for him. Harrison Phillips has excelled since he left. Good for him as well. Sometimes all it takes is the right coach or system. NFL stands for not for long. Anyone who gets to play as long as they have deserve some kudos.
  8. Do we really want a Pats cast off?
  9. What a huge man. He has become a truly elite player.
  10. …I like mine with lettuce and tomato Heinz 57 and French fried potato, a big kosher pickle and a cold draft beer…..
  11. That was very evident in the Jets game.
  12. You do realize that is no longer true. McD/Babich have blitzed more than ever before this season and have added 3 LB sets to help on running plays since Milano returned. It's time to retire that narrative.
  13. Potential Bills milestones in week 18. Cook needs 19 rushing yards for 1000 and 61 total yards for 1300 yards from scrimmage. Shakir needs 179 receiving yards for 1000 (ok it's not happening) Josh needs 269 passing yards for 4000 (ok it's not happening either) Ray Davis needs 22 yards for 400 rushing Ty Johnson needs 16 yards to get to 500 yards from scrimmage Kincaid needs 52 yards receiving for 500 (Note: If Kincaid and Ty Johnson reach 500 yards, it will give the Bills 7 players with 500+ yards from scrimmage) Ty Johnson needs 3 catches for 20 and Ray Davis needs 5 for 20. If both get to 20 receptions it will give the Bills 10 players with 20 or more catches this season.
  14. He isn't getting that much to stay. We currently don't have the cap space.
  15. Was Mack Hollins Beane best off-season signing? Other "key" signings: UFAs: Samuel, Smoot, A. Johnson, (s) Mike Edwards, Toohill. Re-signings: AJE, Daquan Jones, Ty Johnson, & Q Morris.
  16. I wonder what this genius is spouting now? How can a GM who built a team that had 4 straight division championships and playoff 6 of 7 years prior to this season be labelled as inept. In Buffalo we know what inept GMs look like (just look at the current Sabres and the Bills before Beane) and Beane is far from inept. What a great job, talk crap without research or thought and get paid for it. Isn't America a great place.
  17. It's pretty simple, if you add Derek Henry and your teams gets worse, you aren't the MVP regardless of your stats.
  18. Here is the most important stat 2023 - Balt 13-4 No. 1 Seed Add Derek Henry, 2024 -Balt 11-5 No. 3 seed at best 2023 - Bills 11- 6 No. 2 Seed Lose Top 2 receivers, 2024 - Bills 13-3 No. 2 Seed Simply put, the Bills lost key players on offense (and Defense) and got better, while Baltimore added HOFer Derek Henry, who has had a great season, and got worse. Just for those interested. 2023 Lamar - 3678 yards passing 24 Tds, 7 ints, 821 yards rushing 5 Tds, 7 FL - Total yards 4499, 29 TDs 2023 Josh - 4306 yards passing 29 tds, 18 ints, 524 yards rushing 15 tds, 6 FL - Total yards 4830, 44 TDs Not sure how Lamar was the MVP and Josh only 5th in the voting. I guess record mattered last year.
  19. I said 11 to 12 wins. I wrote that Josh will have his best season spreading the ball around. I expected Cook to reach 1500 yards from scrimmage again (he's at 1239, but only needs 19 yards for 1000 rushing). I thought Kincaid and Shakir would each reach 1000 yards (Shakir 821 and Kincaid 448). I thought Groot would have a breakout season and get 11 sacks (he has 8). All in all the Bills as a team exceeded expectations, while the everyone eats philosophy really did spread the wealth. Only Cook and Shakir came near to my predictions. Overall the Bills have had 13 players catch a TD pass, 7 players with 400+ yards from scrimmage, 4 players with rushing TDs and 8 players with 20 or more catches with Davis and Ty Johnson possibly reaching 20 receptions in week 17. Talk about everyone eats. The Bills have scored 63 TDs YTD: 31 Rushing, 29 passing, 2 picks 6's and 1 fumble return.
  20. Bills record 13-3 locked up 2nd seed. Ravens record 11-5 and haven’t locked up their division despite the addition of Henry. They also have a worse record than last year despite the addition of Henry. Josh is the MVP.
