Albany,n.y.

How can you leave off a future HOFer, Von Miller? 😄

The Bills played 7 games in 8 weeks from 9/30/90 to 11/18/90. This game is the only one I wasn't at. Two of the games were road games. 10/28 at NE & 11/4 at Cleveland. Two of the weeks I did a football doubleheader. On 9/29, the day before the Denver home game we went to a CFL game in Toronto & on 11/5 we traveled west to Indianapolis from Cleveland & caught the Giants @ Indianapolis game. For the season I went to 14 NFL games including playoffs & Super Bowl & one CFL game. That's the most games I ever went to in one season & this was the only home game I missed. I only had half a season ticket that year in a seat that I split for 4 of the games and I guess I just stayed home that week.

If every time a journalist criticized someone running or playing for a team and got sued, the courts would be jammed up with frivolous lawsuits. It was the writer's poetic license and hardly libelous. Obviously, Joe Douglas has worked in weeks since he made a trade at the trade deadline. It might actually be true Johnson is looking forward to a future role in the administration without quitting on the team at the same time. How many people plan things in the future & still go to work in the present? Just about everyone with a job.

Jets getting skewered for losing their kicker: https://thejetpress.com/ny-jets-accidentally-lose-starting-kicker-spencer-shrader-boneheaded-mistake-01jcpbnqm0cj

Instead of blaming coaches for ruining QBs, blame the scouts & GMs who over-drafted them. It's amazing how many people think numerous bad QBs were ruined when they never had NFL talent to begin with. A lot of QBs just can't play at the next level, but GMs & scouts miss what becomes obvious once the guy goes up against grown men in the NFL. Then when the coach sees how bad they are in practice & games and bench them so they won't lose the locker room, the fans and media cry that the QB is being ruined, when in reality, he is a bust. The 1st ones to notice that are the coaches who see them about 5 days a week during the season. Then there are the QB busts with overinflated opinions of themselves who get drafted way too high. Best examples are lazy bums/head cases like Leaf, Russell, Manziel, and Rosen. They never made a true effort to improve their games. Then there are the undersized guys like Young & C.Williams who get drafted #1 and are quickly surpassed by the normal sized QBs taken after them. PS: Good examples of bad scouting & GMs: The Bills drafting JP Losman & EJ Manuel. Both got benched early in their careers by coaches who had seen enough to say No Mas.

Nobody should be thanking Gettleman as some have done earlier in the thread. Chances are if he hadn't taken Barkley at 2 and picked a QB instead, he would have most likely selected Sam Darnold, who the Jets picked with the next pick, & then the Jets would still have probably taken Rosen before Allen since they're the Jets. The worst thing the Giants did was re-sign Jones to ridiculous money. My 1st reaction was these were the same guys who were in Buffalo when the Bills decided Tyrod Taylor wasn't good enough & they learned nothing from that experience. However, in their defense, the year they re-signed Jones the QB draft was really bad with only CJ Stroud at 2 being worth drafting (plus Young & Richardson were gone long before the Giants could even consider trading up after making the playoffs). The best thing they could have done was not re-signing Jones & going with a veteran free agent (possibly Tyrod, who was on the roster last year) and then doing everything possible to move up in the 2024 draft-or sat back & taken Penix, McCarthy, or Nix instead of only wanting one of the top 3 QBs taken (as shown on Hard Knocks).

The good news is the game will end soon & not conflict with the start of the Bills game.

How can Daboll go without sending Schoen with him? Anybody associated with the Jones contract needs to go.

His name could be Smith & most of us wouldn't know the difference.

If he stays unemployed, will he go into hock?

The Bills won a game that way on 12/2/2007: 2007 Bills at Washington Joe Gibbs called an illegal timeout that gave Rian Lindell a shorter field to kick the game-winner.

No, Geno, no!

I went to a 49ers game in 2022 & paid around $500 for 3 tickets in the 2nd level sidelines, near the endzone. The mass transit is pretty good, drive to a train station & shuttle right to the stadium. When I went to the Super Bowl there, we did a park & ride about a half hour from the stadium & bused in. There really is no need to park there.

He hangs the ball out like a loaf of bread so everybody can eat.
