A Few Thoughts about the Pats Game, In no particular order
Saint Doug replied to Virgil's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I just wonder if Daboll wanted to can Castillo right when he got here and McD made him give it just one year. He’s our OC and hasn’t really been given any say in his assistants. As for Frasier, I remember when he got the D playcalling taken away from him and we played lights out for a few games. I bet he got them back at some point. -
Report: Le'Veon Bell Wants to Sign with the Colts
Saint Doug replied to 26CornerBlitz's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
If I’m the Colts, I just lowered the amount of guaranteed money in any offer by $10M. -
Ummmm. A large proportion of people who habitually use drugs usually do so due to mental health reasons. It’s called self-treatment. And, I don’t think there’s really many people who still “struggle” to recognize the mental health as a “legit issue” considering suicide rates are increasing, but if there still are, hopefully they can find a time machine to make it back to from 1950.

3rd 4th quarter comeback for Josh
Saint Doug replied to Hebert19's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Yes, no more rocket balls. But, in that video, ironically all I saw was softballs that were sailing over the heads of receivers. -
3rd 4th quarter comeback for Josh
Saint Doug replied to Hebert19's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
No. I see a breakdown between the ball getting from point A to point B and am wondering how it could be corrected short of giving up and saying “maybe next year...”. I’m not down on Josh, but won’t fail to recognize it take 2 players to complete a pass. -
3rd 4th quarter comeback for Josh
Saint Doug replied to Hebert19's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I hear a lot of people speaking about the large number of dropped passes Allen has. It definitely could be bad receivers, but what if it isn’t? Is there something Josh is doing to account for these dropped balls? I know he throws bullets. Can a ball actually be thrown too hard to a receiver? -
BOLO for the guy who threw the Beer Can
Saint Doug replied to IgotBILLStopay's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I hope it didn’t maim any innocent bystanders like a young orphan or the Bills pastor. -
BOLO for the guy who threw the Beer Can
Saint Doug replied to IgotBILLStopay's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Many people getting worked up over an empty beer can being tossed at the helmet of an opposing player that engaged in after the whistle would-be-assault if he didn’t have a uniform on. Google Preakness Running of the Urinals. They seem much, much tougher than football fans. A horse race, right? -
The Patriot Way is getting a little nutty
Saint Doug replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Is this the forwards or backwards version? -
I’m not so sure it’s a simple as that. When we mate, we produce offspring that has roughly 50% of the genetic make-up of the parents. Any desirable traits (football IQ gene??) one parent holds has a 50% chance of being inherited. That’s basically a coin flip. What is much, much more likely to influence an offsprings future achievements is being raised in a household that will bestow the values of the parents. This could include having you kid hang out at the stadium all the time, parental insight, positive experiences, with a healthy serving of connections and favors.

Kelvin Benjamin has checked out. Just bench him.
Saint Doug replied to LTF's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
If we cut him and another team picks him up, are they then on the hook for the rest of his salary for the year? If so, I’d cut him. -
No. If they took the best player *available*, that is assuming they are selecting the best player available at the slot they are picking. By moving up, they are selecting a great player they do not think will be available at the current draft spot. So, the best player wouldn’t be available. If they trade down (as 50% of trade makers do), they are admitting that there is no best player available at the slot they were originally given.

The new have vs have nots...offensive coordinator
Saint Doug replied to Hebert19's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
The Brooklyn Nets? So, how are they doing this year? -
At first, as a fan I was appalled he would do such a thing. But, thinking about it a bit more, this guy doesn’t owe us a g damn thing. If he wants to walk away, regardless of the timing, who are we to judge? If this is what makes him happy, fine. I’m sure there have been players who have been unofficially cut mid-game, so how is this different?

It’s been almost an hour and no one has jumped on the egregious use of the word “affect”?

Thoughts on not making Anthony Lynn our HC?
Saint Doug replied to Virgil's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I do give him credit for sustaining their prior success. This is a situation where a coach was hired that didn’t automatically rip everything down to it “his way” with “his guys”. -
I doubt there will be a 2nd contract given to neither Greedy nor White by the Bills. CB is one of the few positions where a player can step in an play like an All-Pro by the end of the mid-season of their rookie year. Given CB is one of the highest paid positions in the NFL, it makes more sense to just draft a replacement.

Start Josh Allen (healthy) or Matt Barkley?
Saint Doug replied to TonyBeets's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
This is actually a tough decision. We know who the starter is for next year and the year after. Do we know who the backup QB will be? This season has taught us that a backup vet at QB is extremely important for Allen. Are we going to give Barkley a long-term contract after beating the worse team in the NFL? Or, are we going to pass, say it was a fluke, and go dumpster diving mid-season again in 2019? -
Agreed. At this point, I think it’s more important in seeing what Barkley has over what Allen has. No one doubts Allen is the QB of the future. What we don’t know if who the backup QB will be. We’ve all seen firsthand how important this position is this season. It’s been a complete ***** show and has basically ruined our season. We don’t need another repeat next season.

Ameer Abdullah Released
Saint Doug replied to DisplacedBillsFan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Agreed. Use a 1st or a 2nd. We need a Gurley type that can singlehandedly take over games. It’s not a coincidence that Goff and Gurley are both having excellent seasons. Spend the other 2 picks on OL and WR. Remember Kareem Abdul Jabbar they played for the fins? https://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/A/AbduKa00.htm -
Bring in Huey Jackon as OC
Saint Doug replied to The Real Buffalo Joe's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
A real man would’ve just picked it up barehanded.
