  1. The 2022 NFL schedule has some good news for the Bills. Buffalo has a +13-day net rest differential on its 2022 schedule, according to Seth Walder of ESPN. That’s the most favorable rest differential in the NFL. https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2022/05/13/nfl-schedule-makers-gave-bills-a-key-advantage/
  2. No one should be put on the wall before Fred Jackson is. No one.
  3. I may take a gander.
  4. People say there isn’t a bad seat in the house, but I disagree. The club seats are where to be. Without question. From the sight lines, to the concessions, to the nicer bathrooms, nothing else in the stadium comes close.
  5. Wow, that’s a lot of questions. Did you mean to go to google.com? I kid, I kid.
  6. I still can’t bring myself to watch those 13 seconds, or overtime.
  7. I’d be shocked if the Rams were favored by 4.
  8. Perhaps it’s the emotional trauma from players not wanting to come here in the past, but my first was that he was not excited to be picked by Buffalo.
  9. He… doesn’t look thrilled. Or maybe he’s baked.
  10. The first time i’ve scratched my head at a Beane pick.
  11. I'm willing to co-sponsor this thread and increase the prize to a jersey, if OP wishes. Ball caps do nothing for me personally. DL OL OL CB RB CB
  12. This is a fascinating example of fandom.
  13. I never said that or intimated that. I simply said Beane chose not to tender him for what would have been a slightly lower amount, and would have provided additional protection (via a 2nd round pick).
  14. I find this very peculiar. Beane did not tender him with a 2nd round designation that would have given abates $3.9 million and would have provided the Bills with a 2nd round pick if he was signed elsewhere. But Beane was willing to give him a 4 year deal with an average of more than $4 million per season. I must be missing something.
  15. I didn’t realize they increased. I was using last years (2021) numbers:
  16. $3.3 million is the cost of a 2nd round tender. $2.2 million is the cost of the tender the Bills gave Bates. For $1M more, the Bears or Vikings would have had to send the Bills a 2nd round pick to sign him. Which probably wouldn’t happen. So we would have him in 2022 for $3.3M.
  17. I would label that as a good problem to have.
  18. Perhaps this is one of the many reasons why he is an NFL gm and I am not, but I find it hard to reconcile that he would want the player on the team at $2.3 million, but not $3.3 million? The difference is so slight that it doesn’t make sense to me.
  19. I’m genuinely surprised that Beane allowed a measly $1 million to be the difference between keeping and losing Bates.
  20. It’s kind of funny watching people hype up the signing, and then as soon as he backs out “oh he wasn’t that good anyway”.
  21. I wouldn’t doubt it. People like to feel important. What quicker way to do that than to show a fan of your best friends team, secret stuff?
  22. It is his job. Great coaches do this all the time. Belichick routinely goes up to individual players and position groups in key situations.
  23. I don’t speak to old bossss from 5+ years ago. Maybe i’m the exception. .
