Guess I'll just have to disagree...

Diggs will have good stats the first half of the season. Seems to always happen when a player moves to a new team. Once DCs get some film on him and the Texans' schemes, his productivity will fall off in the second half of the season.

One I remember vividly was going to the fandemonium Bills-Jets game in 1988 when they won the AFC East in overtime, and everybody stormed the field. My dad absolutely hated traffic, so when the Jets lined up for the game winning FG in regulation, he grabbed me and headed to the top of the aisle, ready to hightail it out of there if it was good. As we all know, Smerlas blocked the kick, sending it to OT. I grabbed my dad and we ran back to our seats to witness the rest. Great day all around.

I know some on here were hoping for him to somehow end up here... https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/40356447/source-bengals-wr-tee-higgins-sign-franchise-tender

I have nothing to add, just wanted to say that was an awesome writeup, top to bottom.

I get it, but... Raise your hand if you thought that, once Rodgers was sidelined after 4 plays last year, the Bills would roll to victory over the Zach Wilson-led Jets?

Here's a screenshot of one that should suffice.

How in the world is the University of Utah on this list? We've had some great years recently, and not just in football.

Maybe he's just trying to get out of Carolina. Someone would probably pick him up if he's cut.

I haven't looked at this thread in a long time, but I keep seeing it at the top of the thread list. So I popped in to see what in the world people could still be saying about Worthy at this point and now I can't remember which message board I'm on.

Word. I wonder if he prefers sabers or flintlock pistols?

The day finally arrived, and according to Fanatics we currently stand at $11.1 million under. What happens next...?

The same team that lost to his backup last year? Also see: 2024 Bills defensive line

Dan Marino limped for the rest of his career after his injury. Obviously it was a long time ago, but it could just mean his achilles healed in a way that will always result in a limp (rather than not being fully healed). I'm still with you, I don't think he's truly healed yet, and this could be a bad sign. But, it could also just be nothing.

Not someone who I think is the most frustrating player ever, but I do recall being repeatedly pissed off at Antowain Smith. Guy had a ton of talent and could not figure out how to run the ball in the big leagues. Backups would come in and outplay him, and he would still get the start the following week.

To be honest, I'm not all that concerned about the offense, even without a stud #1 WR. This team will go as far as the defense will allow it. I'm really concerned about our pass rush—we're going nowhere if they don't figure that out.

I have my doubts as to whether he'll open week 1 as the starter, but I do think he's probably in the longer-term plan. I see SVP as starting as the backup C. If McGovern goes down with an injury, he'll be available to step in. If one of the guards goes down, McGovern can switch over to G and SVP can come in at C. I could see that happening based on OL health. If everyone stays healthy, then it depends on how well the OL gels during the season. If there are issues, I could see them moving McGovern back to G and SVP in at C at the bye week, perhaps, then never look back.

My money is on @4merper4mer, the master.

Getting the feeling that Hyde is going to sit out as long as he can to save his body, maybe reserve himself for a mid-season signing if the defensive backfield needs a boost for a playoff run...

What's his gauntlet time?

So you absolutely KNOW it will be week 7, then.

Have a conference in LA this year in October, so I'll be there on 10/20. Was hoping that would be the week of the LA game, but it's not looking likely...

This required its own thread?

I don’t even know what the hell this thread is about anymore…
