Are the Dolphins obviously better than the Bills?
DrDawkinstein replied to Giuseppe Tognarelli's topic in The Stadium Wall
This is all about "on paper". And on paper, it's tough to argue against their position. The main difference in the Bills favor is how much better Josh is than Tua. -
He was dead the second he stopped. Once he started he had to go all the way. Stopping was just as good as killing himself.

Van Demark, a "Model" Fit for the Bills OL?
DrDawkinstein replied to BuffaloBillyG's topic in The Stadium Wall
The funniest part of this is that us old guys see this post and think he must have been a child model in like the early 80s. Turns out all his work was in the 2000s. -
When did Steve Tasker become such a homer?
DrDawkinstein replied to Mister Defense's topic in The Stadium Wall
It's not a cynical take. It's the realistic take given who signs their paychecks. Your understanding and expectations of this specific person and situation are inaccurate. You are lumping all "broadcasters" together as equals. They are not. -

DrDawkinstein replied to Mister Defense's topic in The Stadium Wall
Ok, you can "disagree" with it all you want. But short of writing a letter to Tasker and the Bills about his job description and duties, it is what it is whether you agree with it or not. Prepare to be disappointed. Those are YOUR expectations. Yes it is. -

DrDawkinstein replied to Mister Defense's topic in The Stadium Wall
You seem to be spiraling on this, when it shouldnt be much of a shock to anyone who understands what Steve Tasker's job truly is. He is NOT an independent journalist trying to give us scoops. He is NOT an outside analyst trying to give objective breakdowns. He IS hired and paid BY THE BILLS to promote and market their team. He does his radio show from the Bills' offices. It's on you the listener to understand his motives and keep a proper frame of mind when listening to his entertainment show. Also, understand that ALL sports media at its very core is nothing more than marketing arms of the professional sports leagues. -
John Harbaugh on the importance of preseason
DrDawkinstein replied to BillsFan619's topic in The Stadium Wall
Right, no one likes Jim Harbaugh. The rest of the family is cool tho. -

"When did Van Miller become such a homer for the Bills?!?" @Mister Defense in 1990, probably -

Jim is a goof, but John, their dad Jack, and mom Jacqueline, are all good peeps. -
O’Cyrus Torrence Dominating (video breakdown)
DrDawkinstein replied to wppete's topic in The Stadium Wall
Then who plays RG? Bates? IMO, [Dawkins LT, Torrence RG] >>> [Torrence LT, Bates RG] -

DrDawkinstein replied to wppete's topic in The Stadium Wall
100% yes. Not going to be Torrence. We didnt draft him for LT. -

Then go get a left tackle. -

Classic Einstein. Doesnt understand what he is looking at. Just sees "guy on ground = bad". Brown made that block and sprung the runner. Nothing to complain about. Here is the screen shot taken merely half a second earlier that changes everything and shows the truth: Huge hole and free lane for Murray to run through untouched. He cant/shouldnt play anywhere but RG. He even has trouble at LG. Enough with all this shuffling the deck and making guys play out of position. If we need a RT, then get a true RT. -
The folks in charge of the PAC-12 could not have messed this up any more than they did.

O’Cyrus Torrence Dominating (video breakdown)
DrDawkinstein replied to wppete's topic in The Stadium Wall
That wasnt bad. He gets off that quick, and often gets under the shoulder pads to get good control. They wont call any of that. Especially a OG on DT. They can get away with all that pretty easily. Kid looks solid. 👍 -

DrDawkinstein replied to wppete's topic in The Stadium Wall
Grabbing the outside of the lower chest pad with your elbows in will totally fly. That's proper technique. It's when the hands go to the outside of the upper shoulder pads, and/or you get your elbows up/out and arms extended that they'll get you. -
Baltimore Ravens linebacker Roquan Smith hosting jersey swap
DrDawkinstein replied to Saxum's topic in The Stadium Wall
Those are actually all pretty sweet jerseys. No shame in any of them. -

Wonder what he'd do for a Kiko Alonso jersey -
To Have, and To Have Not: a Midwestern Tale
DrDawkinstein replied to Beck Water's topic in Off the Wall
I meant to answer this, and then... life happened. lol Yeah, the one we spec'ed was at 22kW. All sorts of fancy features they have on them nowadays with wifi and apps and stuff. This is the model: https://www.generac.com/all-products/generators/home-backup-generators/guardian-series/22kw-7042-wifi-enabled Annoying/Frustrating to see an MSRP of $5500 on the manufacturer site and then everyone we talk to is $12k all in. But that is full install. Pulling permits, pouring the pad, wiring it into the house, etc. I get it isnt easy, but when more than half is install/labor... ugh. -
Practice fight (8/15) - Helmets are swinging
DrDawkinstein replied to Slippery Rubber Mats's topic in The Stadium Wall
So the boys were finally showing some fire, and McD had to put a stop to that. Got it. -
Practice fight (8/15) - Helmets are swinging
DrDawkinstein replied to Slippery Rubber Mats's topic in The Stadium Wall
Agreed on every point. He's a 3rd year late round pick, but with GREAT football pedigree. He's well ahead of where Poyer was at this point of his career. I've never seen him as a cut candidate as long as he was able to perform as well as he did last year. Knowing that needs to improve. But there is time and opportunity to do that. -

So Dodson WAS the alleged swinger, but he is denying the swing ever happened. -
Brandon Shell Reportedly Intends to Retire
DrDawkinstein replied to BuffaloBillyG's topic in The Stadium Wall
Then the NFL needs to adapt their OL prototypes. Just like they did after dealing with 20 years of almost zero great QBs coming out. The NFL adapted and accepted the less traditional, more mobile, running QBs and now we have a whole new base of young star QBs. And the League is the most exciting and interesting it's been since the 90s.
