So does this mean that last season was Oliver’s “contract season”?

I’m not sure what he’s saying about Oliver. That is some really awful coach-speak. Impenetrable, to me, at least.

The fact that the Bills were horrible for a generation is not evidence that McDermott is a top coach. What McDermott’s done the past three seasons—with Josh Allen at his peak—is the opposite of “miracle work.”

Did you listen to the pod?

Listen to the whole podcast and then decide if you’ve lost respect for Tucker, who is a big Bills fan BTW. You could quibble about whether he should have had McDermott a little higher, but Tucker defends his McDermott ranking very well.

Perhaps Nyheim Hines…

Amazing insights from this young man. When we traded for Hines, I thought we were just getting a really solid punt and KO return guy…who would have guessed that we had landed a football savant, a modern day Bill Parcells? Since apparently no one told Dorsey that Hines was on the roster, perhaps the plan all along was to slot him in this year as an assistant head coach, or perhaps Hines is the one who’s been whispering in Terry Pegula’s ear…

And everyone knew that he would most likely be released...

There's your proof...

bump

Exactly as I predicted, when many here wanted to trade a second (or even a first) round pick for him...

The only name worse than the Commanders…

What does that have to do with anything?

Of course…

Who’s “Connor”?

I think this is a more compelling argument against Davis than "he only had four great seasons". Four great seasons is a lot for a RB...

It was a different era. Go look at the QB stats in the 70's...they were pathetic compared to now. Joe Ferguson was considered a top-10 QB...his rookie year he started every game and threw for less than 1000 yards. He had a 52% completion rate for his career...Namath won a Super Bowl--the first ever by an AFL team--and, as many have pointed out, he was a pivotal figure in the transformation of the NFL into what it is today.

Terrell Davis had four one-thousand yard rushing seasons, including three seasons where he exceeded 2000 yards combined rushing-receiving and won two Super Bowls. How many great seasons do you expect a Hall of Fame running back to have? OJ Simpson really only had four great seasons, yet he was a first-ballot Hall of Famer and maybe the greatest running back of all time...I don't really understand why people take issue with Davis being in the Hall.

I know he hasn't been inducted yet, but I'm still gonna say Frank Gore. The guy had one great season. Really good football player for a lot of years, but doesn't belong in the Hall of Fame.

And Utah and Colorado, not sparsely populated…

Maybe, but it’s the entire Rocky Mountain region, including at least six states… It’s more than location…

It was less than a year ago.

Then why were the “Commanders” just sold for $1.4 billion more than the Broncos, one of the most iconic and valuable franchises in the league?

Now how can I un-see it?

Don't leave the Texans out of that conversation...
