  1. Ok, lets trade McDermott to Denver for Nate Hackett so all the whiners can see what a bad coach is really like.
  2. I'm not betting the game, but if I was I'd stay away from any point spread & just bet the over 54.5.
  3. Try this: https://mytuner-radio.com/radio/wgr-550-sports-radio-404063/
  4. This was Diggs after the game looking at Josh while Josh & Cousins were meeting
  5. Some of you seem to have forgotten the original question which was referring to people who stand THE ENTIRE GAME. Nobody is saying you have to be seated for 3 hours straight. Nothing-read my reply above
  6. The player isn't at bat if he just hit a homerun, he's running around the bases & no one is in the batter's box.
  7. Considering New Era dropped its naming rights & the stadium is now called Highmark, why would anyone care?
  8. I was so sold on Josh after that game I went to the mall & bought his jersey. I had to buy it in a small store because Dick's didn't have any Bills stuff back in 2018 in Albany. The main thing I look for in a rookie QB is flashes of brilliance. I saw that in Josh that game & went all in.
  9. I've been to SF Giants baseball games & you can't even return to your seat and obstruct the other fans views going back to your seat when a player is at bat. They have no problem enforcing it.
  10. I'm too old to stand for a whole game (except for time outs when I was able to sit for a couple of minutes) like I had to do on opening day last season. As a result, I'm only going to go to future Bills home games if I can get 1st row seats in the club level endzone or upper deck. I'm going to 2 Bills road games this year & no home games. If the Bills can have a family section, they should also consider a no standing section too.
  11. The only stat I care about for Diggs is that he is credited with scoring the TD that seals the Super Bowl win. Catches, yards & TDs won't mean a lot without a championship in February.
  12. You do what the Giants did in Super Bowl XXV, keep the ball out of the Bills hands by dominating time of possession. To counteract the Bills' no-huddle offense, the Giants' used a tough-nosed, conservative plan on both sides of the ball. On offense, the plan was to use a power running game utilizing Ottis Anderson, aided by quarterback rollouts, bootlegs, and play-action fakes. As tight end Mark Bavaro later recalled, "We came out with three tight ends, fat slobs picking you up and moving you and letting you tackle O.J. [Anderson], if you could."[citation needed] This enabled them to take time off the clock and limit Buffalo's possessions. The Giants set a Super Bowl record for time of possession with 40 minutes and 33 seconds, including 22 minutes in the second half.
  13. I type pretty slowly and this often happens to me. By the time I post someone has mentioned something similar.
  14. No. I don't miss the incompetence that plagued the team for many years. Now in December I'm thinking Super Bowl. Years ago I was hoping for more losses so that 1) The Bills would get a higher draft choice &/or 2) The bad management would get fired or quit. Actually they went hand in hand-I didn't trust the management to draft the right players, so I was hoping they would be drafting so high it would be a no brainer who to pick. Yet, team history showed that even with a top 5 pick the Bills would screw it up. The last 3 top 5 Bills draft choices all had one thing in common: When they were with the Bills they were lazy guys who didn't take their job seriously. Watkins, Darius & M. Williams were all massive underachievers. I blame the guys who drafted them more than the players themselves. The players had character flaws that should have been evident pre-draft. Add to that the last 2 1st round QB picks before Josh: Trading up for JP Losman & then boxing themselves into a corner & drafting EJ Manuel as the top QB in a year that was among the worst ever QB classes. Beane showed me that with good management draft position really doesn't matter. I learned that lesson in 2018 when I thought that by drafting 21 & 22 the Bills had guaranteed more years of QB hell. When Beane moved from 21 to 7 and ended up with the best player in the draft, I learned that with a good GM you don't need to bottom out like I always thought the Bills had to do. I still remember that even after the Bills moved up to 12 in 2018, I was resigned to a bad fate when the Jets moved from 6 to 3, guaranteeing them the chance at a franchise QB. Fortunately, the teams picking ahead of the Bills weren't managed very well (only 1 of the GMs from the 5 teams that drafted before 7 is still on the job) and we got lucky nobody ahead of pick 7 saw the potential the Bills did in Josh Allen. In summary, I prefer planning for Super Bowl Sunday in December than planning for the draft in December.
  15. I saw that & it matches my Verizon guide, but I'll wait for 2 things. 1st when the official 506 maps come out & then if it's still the Jets, I'll be looking for possible request by WRGB to CBS to change it to the Bills. I figure we've got until Friday if the original map shows the Jets & I expect a change if that happens. However, since it's two 2-0 teams battling for the division lead versus 1-1/0-2 I expect to see Bills at Miami on the 506 map & the WRGB website on Wednesday. Worst case scenario, I go to OTB & get my own booth & watch the game with the sound on (as opposed to many sports bars that don't play the sound).
  16. Cousins is the ultimate looks good on paper but not on the field player. Very mediocre but he puts up enough stats to look better than any other .500 QB in black & white. Too bad he's not very good in color.
  17. Ken Johnson AKA Pinto Ron will soon be on ESPN's Monday Night Countdown getting a ketchup & mustard bath. They just showed Elvis waving his guitar while standing on the roof of a vehicle.
  18. Better tell those people headed out to Highmark to turn around and go home since the game is now in Nashville.
  19. I'm listening on the My Tuner site & this clown is giving out the game "for free" on a recorded message at an 800 #. He claims to be a pro then states Tennessee is at home, making them a home underdog. This "pro" doesn't even know where the game is being played.
  20. I see this was merged with LeBron James haunted by the Browns passing on Josh Allen twice. My first thought was Cleveland haunted by LeBron leaving the Cavaliers twice.
  21. I don't have the suspense gene, I have the opposite-When I'm watching a movie at home, I'll go on the internet & find out the ending before the movie is halfway over. I'll know what happened & not care.
  22. I'll have to wait until tomorrow to watch it since I don't have Amazon. I'm recording the replay on the NFL Network which starts at 12:15 AM.
  23. I can't wait until Tua sees the contracts that his fellow class of 20 QBs Burrow & Herbert get and demands the Dolphins match those for him. 😄
