On one hand, as an out-of-towner, more Prime Time games means I dont have to buy any packages or even pirate games. And I do appreciate the Bills getting all the love and respect. On the other hand, Sunday 1pm is truly prime football time. Dont have to stay up late, not interrupting the week's routine, easier to get to games in-person. And my kid gets to see the games since it isnt past her bedtime like SNF/MNF/TNF. I prefer them all Sunday 1pm, but I wont complain about being one of the top teams people want to see on the national stage. Looking forward to crushing the Jets and ending all this offseason hype right away.

Nope, that is 100% on coaching. They are ultimately responsible. They dropped the ball multiple times in a matter of 13 seconds.

This is probably the highest assessment of Levi I've ever seen! And wouldnt you say that if he came in and competed and COULD take playing time away from them, then it would be better to have him around since he would therefore be an upgrade?

Wasnt quite like that. https://www.si.com/xfl/2023/03/24/xfl-quinten-dormady-clears-air-accusation-leaked-plays-orlando-guardians

I dont expect this to be many folks cup of tea here, but Run the Jewels is doing a 10th anniversary "tour". Playing 4 nights in a row in each of NY, Chicago, Atlanta, and LA. Each night playing 1 of their 4 albums. I got tickets for the 1st and 4th Atlanta shows! Already sold out! https://pitchfork.com/news/run-the-jewels-announce-10th-anniversary-tour/

Should also note, if Beane hadnt been dicked around by McKissic, he wouldve absolutely re-signed Wallace. The main reason he was so pissed about how McKissic and the Commanders handled that. It not only cost us McKissic, but lost us Wallace along the way.

When did he have his touch? 🤣 Jokes aside, because I do believe part of Levi's "struggles" were based on how our Defensive system pushes the ball to the #2 option, I'd welcome him back for depth. He's a better CB5 option than Jamarcus Ingram or Kyler McMichael. Especially once the injury bugs start biting. White Elam (Johnson) Benford Dane Jackson Wallace (Lewis/Neal) Nice looking group imo.

Classic, timeless, holds up. Without a doubt.

Do you think Beane was flat out lying to everyone and knew it? Or is it more the case of the right opportunity never presented itself, since there are a lot of moving parts to acquiring players? I'm still hoping for an addition with more cuts coming soon. 🤞

Single Josh is looking great! The world it yours, king! (Now go win that championship)

Muse is always great, and no different last night. Huge, loud, dynamic, electronic rock set. Hahaha, plenty of stuff at the show, but slammin those 'profen as soon as we get home.

Just got done with day 2. Been quite the weekend so far. One day left. I'm livin on Ibuprofen at this point...

With only $4500 in dead cap space if cut, I expect Mancz to be cut.

My man, he was going to get paid like that all along. And I'm THRILLED for him. I called him silly/ill-advised/whatever for holding out on that huge bag over a larger, fully guaranteed number because I wanted him to just get paid. What I said all along was "Dude needs an agent who would tell him to take the regular deal, it's good enough". Ultimately he caved and took the standard, HUGE, regular good enough deal. Good for Lamar. He finally figured out to take the huge pile of money someone was trying to pay him. But when discussing the business side of things, Jackson gave a lesson on exactly what not to do. Took major risks, with both his body and his rep with team mates by having to sit out the playoff game when this should have been settled already.

In the Cincy game, we werent so talent-deficient as much as gumption-deficient. Agreed with bullied off the field, but not because we couldnt punch back, just because we were too scared or tired to punch back. That's on coaching, imo.

But then Brock pretty much came back full time.

These are GREAT! edit: I see they made the Colts' horse mascot... uh.. anatomically correct...

I dont think any of those moves are on Beane's radar. I believe it's today, or as of after today.

Ha! I thought that for a second and then went with being right for posterity sake. well played. Looks like we got the DT/NT too.

We already signed the FA RB. I think he is just working on the DL/DT at this point.

Most importantly, played in Carolina

But arent the rules setup to make an easier turn around when you are horrible and picking early? Look at the Jets lately. They had the DROY and OROY last year. Is that because Joe Douglas is some amazing visionary of a GM? Or because they had multiple early picks that allowed them to take the obvious best players? JMO, but to me, taking a .500 team in 2018 with modern salary cap and free agency, and with mid-late draft picks, and an extremely limited amount of draft picks, and 4 more teams to spread talent across than in 1984... seems more impressive.

Possibly better when you consider that most of Polian's star acquisitions were 1. brought in via early draft picks from the Bills being 2-12 for a few years in a row and 2. he was working with 12 ROUND DRAFTS. 12! 12 shots plus some he got from trades and what not. He had 13 picks in 1986. He hit on the first 2 (Ronnie Harmon and Will Wolford), if you count Harmon as a hit, and then... not much else to show for it. When you go back and look at the number of hits he had versus the number of picks he used, it is far worse than Beane's batting average. Plus. Polian didnt have the salary cap to worry about. It was all far simpler for GMs back then. Where does this line of questioning even come from? There is plenty of access to the draft process to see that Head Coaches, Asst Coaches, Scouts, etc all have great input into the picks. This is not some autonomous authoritative regime. Nor is it that way on any team. Go watch the discussions and debates the Cowboys room had at time of their picks throughout the draft. It wasnt the GM or any one person dictating anything. And that's with Jerry Jones in the room!

lol, that wasnt me. there was an actual thread yesterday yeah, started as dankenstein. i thought i had a good archive memory of the stuff that goes down here.

We need Tackles, and he proved his worth playing through that ACL in the Miami game. Unless we bring in another vet, I think he sticks around.
