  1. Unfortunately already. I don't think it was like this in college. Maybe it's time to ask if all these advanced training techniques, attention, and workouts at the pro level are doing more harm than good
  2. blaming EJ is silly. previous 2 games we scored 10 and 13 points, and against weaker defenses than cinci's. EJ puts up 21 with absolutely no help from the defense (no sacks, no turnovers). EJ is the better QB
  3. Produced no sacks and no turnovers , versus quality opponent = no win
  4. If only all those people had been carrying guns, and miraculously could have pulled them fast enough, and the added shooting didn't miracously create more collateral damage. Hmmmm....it's sad when the answer to gun violence in US is more guns, given a set of leap of faith assumptions, and no ones listening. 1 killed, 4 wounded in ZombiCon shooting Melissa Montoya, Ben Brasch and Michael Braun, The (Fort Myers, Fla.) News-Press 32 minutes ago FORY MYERS, Fla. A shooting left one dead and four others wounded at the ZombiCon festival in downtown Fort Myers on Saturday night, according to Lt. Victor Medico of the Fort Myers Police Department. http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2015/10/18/one-killed-zombicon-shooting/74167508/
  5. source? would also need to see comparative a) playing time and b) time spent behind 2nd and 3rd string OLine
  6. based on pre-season performances, we have one who does them better. Anyway the main point is just because someone is faster, does not mean they are better at avoiding sacks. Often they fall at the other extreme, like Russell Wilson who is tied for league lead in sacks.
  7. TT has been sacked 7th most in NFL this year. Why is it assumed his mobility negates pass rush? Field vision, pre-snap reads, quick release negates pass rush (i.e. Brady, Mannings, etc.), all slow as molasses and all sacked less
  8. finally got around to seeing compton. definitely entertaining flick. enjoyed seeing the softer side of the "hard core" rappers like EZE, and their take on still relevant issues like police brutality. Acting for most part was very good: EZ E was excellent, Dre just so-so, Cube was good (didnt hurt it was his son who had the "always angry" look of his father), Giamatti is always good, actress played Cube's gal was a hottie obviously it was heavily biased though being made by Cube and Dre, and with EZE not around to defend himself. Thought they were especially harsh on Suge, who's clearly got some issues in real life. But they made him out as lacking any redeeming qualities yet THEY elected to go with him and he did get them out of contracts with Heller which they said were abusive. Speaking of which, Im sure Heller has a different take on things too. Like to hear his side before denouncing him. Side note Bills fans should appreciate the time period references as it overlapped with Super Bowl years. Good times in that sense.
  9. theyre right, it wasnt horse collar, grabbed jersey
  10. he may have a point, but being that he's a marginal talent it's hard to pinpoint. His combine #'s and IK's are essentially the same, but IK (also a marginal talent) is on a roster and Sam isn't
  11. predictions from the bungholes board, other than the expected homerism, some fair and reasonably insightful comments http://bengalsboard.net/Thread-Bengals-Bills-predictions
  12. Sam told Patrick that he "never really want to go into the CFL," and that he "wasn't really getting better as a football player" during his time with the Alouettes. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/michael-sam-nfl-roster_56096188e4b0768126fe3673
  13. get well soon bro, compared to yours the competing threads for post-game commentary are like using a 1st round pick on a DB that gets cut after a year
  14. Geno Smiths rookie season. Had a QBR of 4.1 that game. Bungholes were at home. We're going to do better.
  15. Yeah right, in the bizzare mind of wackos who get their rocks off slaughtering nature they fantasize they're some kind of hero. Reality other than shooting their ownselves theres almost no element of risk. If they want real risk and some kind of hero, instead of slaughtering animals why don't they take on each other ?
  16. I really hope Bills have enough film on themselves at this point to counter the quick throws. Maybe not and its personel-related, but I think our guys can be flexible enough to show something interesting 3-4 (even 2-5) formations. And I'm certainly not sold on dalton performing on Brady and Manning's level
  17. He's not Walt Coleman, so I like him
  18. Bills have been averaging just under 25 points with TT. I say they score more with EJ, even against a good D. They will get 30. Bungholes been averaging just under 30. Given they'll be on the road and going up against the best D theyve faced so far this year, I see them getting below their average. They will get 26. Bills 30 Bengals 26
  19. A paper by a team of astronomers is getting some notice because of aliens. Now let’s have a care here. The paper doesn’t mention aliens, and it doesn’t even imply aliens. Not directly, at least. But the astronomers found a star so odd, with behavior so difficult to explain, that it’s clear something weird is happening there. And some of the astronomers who did the work are now looking into the idea that what they’ve found might (might!) be due to aliens. http://www.slate.com/blogs/bad_astronomy/2015/10/14/weird_star_strange_dips_in_brightness_are_a_bit_baffling.html
  20. Aints playing for the lives. Even if they don't make it, have to give them credit for effort
  21. It will be interesting to see how EJ utilizes Watkins this w/e. In preseason he was taking (and making) more shots downfield
  22. No I think this fits better for you "Repeatedly saying something over and over, or rather whining about it, therefore destroying the point you were trying to make" http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=bitchinghttp://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=bitching
  23. Ok so just useless bitching. Nothing new there.
  24. Several of the best players in history have been bad guys, not team players (or whatever it is uoure trying to label Watkins). Emmit Smith made it clear he was after individual records, rice criticized young when he took over for montana, our own Andre Reed as we we've seen, and on and on. Different guys motivate themselves differently and it can still work within team context. What exactly is it you're saying should be done to Watkins? And what would have happened if same were done to all those HoF'ers?
