    Gabe Davis' success isn't solely, but in my opinion is primarily, based on two things:  teams forgetting about him on a play, and/or teams not really concerned about him on a play.

     

    In his career he has made a couple of ridiculous...and I mean RIDICULOUS toe-drag-swag receptions, but it is not the norm.  The same goes for his success or lack there of on contested passes or getting open.

     

    What do I want or what am I looking for even just in a #2 receiver?  Two things:  Does the # 2 concern the Defense enough that they have to specifically plan for him, potentially causing decision issues on D between the 1 and the 2, and secondly if the #1 (heaven forbid) goes down for a period of time can you count on the #2 to be the Man?

     

    So, respectfully, if you are sitting there thinking in all honesty, "Oh man, what is that D going to do?!  They have to worry about Diggs AND Davis!" or knock on wood you find yourself saying in the future, "OK, Gabe, This is you. The rock is yours, take us up.  You can do it!", then there is nothing to worry about and we are all set.*

     

     

     

    (* If you think this you are the first person on planet earth who has thought this, or you are lying, because nobody has thought this before and no one believes it.  Doesn't mean I don't like him.  I just don't agree with attributes or laurels that are being thrown his way as a 2, or at one point in time people thought of as 1B.)

    Should have opted for 'The Green Death': Haffenreffer.

     

     

    Thank you.

     

    You are wise and complex, Ridge.

     

    Do you have any problem if I potentially follow you around carrying booze?

     

    I will be back a bit and off to the side so you don't always have to explain it to people.

     

    DM me.

    I decided during the later half of the preseason that I will follow Latavius Murray into  the four corners of hell carrying a six pack if he asks it of me.

     

    There has been no call yet, but I have a six pack in the fridge ready to go.

     

    ...it is Yuengling, btw.

     

     

    Go Bills!

    There once was a team from Nantucket

    Who all said Josh will just chuck it

    So they went with Mac Jones

    Who just can't read zones

    Now their fans all shout "f*** it!" 

     

     

    I hate all you guys.

     

    3 years ago when I wanted to do this, to add to the Haku's with the another divisional rival, other than my attempt it was crickets from you guys.

     

    Yes, the style of poem I picked was Villanelle which consists of 19 lines lines, in the form of five tercets and a closing quatrain, wherein the tercets follow the rhyme scheme ABA, while the quatrain’s rhyme scheme is ABAA and has the first line repeating in lines 6, 12, and 18 of the poem, while the third line repeats in lines 9, 15, and 19.

     

    It would have been fun and merriment for all, but nooooooo, that's too much for all of you guys.  You all want to stick with your "roses are red, violets are blue, those are the Bills' colors and I like them too!" garbage.

     

    Fine.

     

    I guess the answer to the eternal Martini Ranch (RIP, Bill) question "How Can The Laboring Man Find Time For Self-Culture?" is most assuredly NOT TSW.

    I would like to humiliate them

     

     

    I'll tell you what, I know I am getting ahead of myself here on the schedule, but after three straight tough games wherein we lost two of them I truly want to beat the living p***, I mean the absolutely living p*** out of the Jets.  Tired of them.  Enough.

    We need to stack wins. Period.


     

    Yeah, get to 6-2 before the bengals game and then take a look around to see what is going on.

     

    beating the bengals, in Cincy, which is still a tall order would get us back on track to where I thought we’d be after 9. 
     

    I just thought they would likely be 7-2 then.

    Trying to think of a comp that has hit free agency. 
     

    without lining them up side by side maybe Trey Hendrickson? Day two pick that exploded in the contract year? 
     

    All that money we talk about with whether to pay gabe is starting to quickly shift here I think.


     

    Saint, man, he has been football porn lately.

     

    stopping the run,

    getting to the qb,

    blocking passes,

    interception,

    touchdown

    mayhem to the offense

    fumble recovery 

     

    he's just been stupid good.

  8. Man, if he stays tenacious and then also just finishes the year with 10 plus sacks…

     

    Honestly, he is going to get more money than maybe the Bills can afford.  God bless him, too, because I am not going to say he isn’t worth it even if it is just based upon 1 year.

    And stay only one game behind Dolphins and win the remaining Dolphins game and Division Championship is assured, again.

    The Bills will be in the playoffs.

     

    I've come to believe the location of the game and the opponent don't really matter.

     

     

     

    I too believe the Bills will make the playoffs.  Again, I am stating where we are at with my original post and made no prediction. 

     

    The question is who is going to beat the Dolphins besides the Bills?

     

    If one of the goals is still the division championship we have to keep up with them.  We've lost to the Jets and Jaguars.  Who is going to up end the Phins?  Also, are the Bills going to be able to keep a within 1 game pace?

     

    Guiseppe, I hope you are right, because this team and staff's next playoff win on the road will be their first playoff win on the road on their 5th try.

    (Mods please merge if already a thread on this, but I couldn’t locate any initially). I received one of those automated texts today from the NFL announcing a flash sale of 50% off either of its tiered NFL + memberships—the premier one includes NFL Redzone. Anyway, in case anyone is interested:

    Huds, I signed up the first time I saw it on Thursday night.  Would consider for the year at full price a few times, but when I saw this I couldn’t pass it up.

     

    Already paying dividends as I watched bills Miami again and condensed Washington/bears the morning after the game before I found out the score.

    Glad you enjoy her. But I don't ever hear her say anything that's remotely insightful and I watch a fair number of the official Bills videos and listen to the Brown/Tasker show a lot and she often fills in for one of them.

     

    To each his or her own.


     

    I absolutely mean no insult to her and have no axe to grind, but yeah, this.

    No kidding, I had no idea about the other location.     Was it still called Ed's then?   I can't remember when they changed the name and the bar front.


     

    it just went by Pony’s.  Near main and Kraus. 
     

    it was simply too big for just doing chicken wings and they didn’t have a liquor license, I believe, so it was just tough.

    Grape Jelly.  Most locals get the fingers.   Feel like its a little overrated but I grew up 10 minutes away and spent many a teenage years there.   Its also as dive as dive can get.


     

    They briefly had a Clarence location about 20 years ago.  
     

    Back then they were something more than some of the more recent fair, but still outstanding because there just isn’t really anything like them.  Rather there wasn’t anything like them until as recently I’ve seen some other places, and even Disney, use jelly.

    They dared him to chuck it and he did quite a bit.  He missed a lot of other open throws too.  

     

    Daniel Jones regression has been a pretty swift fall.  I feel like to win with this guy you need - a solid RB, great offensive line, and multiple playmakers.  At that point you could probably put sam howell in and get the same results.  

     

     

    Yeah, I knew he wasn't "great", B3, but holy mackerel is this ever an epic meltdown right before your eyes.  

     

    I may have stated this somewhere else here or amongst friends in a text thread, but I believe the Giants have won 4 out of their last 14 regular season games.

     

    Whoa Nelly...I'm one of the guys who previously stated in the off season that I liked what they were building.

     

    The fish stinks from the QB head, but they have problems in multiple areas.

     

     

     

     

  15.  

     

    The Big Bang, that event upon which our universe was created, is believed to have been over 13.8 billion years ago.

     

     

    ...that is about how long it feels like until Sunday morning.

     

     

    Somebody hit me in the head with a ******* hammer and just wake me before kickoff.

     

     

    Just incase please leave a piss jug nearby.

     

    Go Bills!

    The Bills have problems with the Jags, but I absolutely fall into this category of:  the Bills WILL WIN, but it is not going to be a wide margin.

     

    4 points is a little close and I would be fine with 11.

     

    22-13, a two score game...I may not be exactly with Gunner on the score (tough to get to 9, though, otherwise), but I kind of like that 9 point spread.

     

    BTW, I hope all of the above, and me, are wrong and it is by 2 plus touchdowns, but we'll see.

     

    Go Bills.
