  1. I thought he was overrated. He’d have 10 or so sacks in a season but maybe 6 would be in 2 games vs crappy teams. Teams didn’t have to game plan for him.
  2. You can’t completely eliminate the human factor of the game of football but it always seemed odd to me that a multi-billion dollar (actually probably trillion now) industry relies on someone eyeballing where the ball is placed, then some guy eyeballing that spot to place a stick, then having a 10 yard long chain used to determine if the team got the necessary yards for a first down. With all the eyeballing, why does it have to be so exact and have games decided because of an inch? The Bills had a great season which unfortunately may have ended based on the eyeballing. Regarding the chain, I swear there was one instance in a Bills game where I found the measurement to be shady. The chain is attached to the stick an inch or so above the ground. Usually you see the stick guy pull the chain taut and sometimes shake it to remove any possible chinks before putting it down. In this instance the stick was put down and part of the chain was on the ground and they ruled the Bills didn’t make a first down. They moved the stick away real quick so it was down for less than a second.
  3. Yeah, he seemed too tentative, lacking aggression.
  4. Welcome to the 21st Century, NFL!!
  5. Chris Paul’s son is a LB?! 👍🤚✋🤲👐
  6. Well, the rise of the passing games resulted in teams playing 2 deep safeties. Soon, they may force all defenders to start a play within 5 yards of the LOS.
  7. We don’t know what happened with Amari Cooper after the trade but he had a career year in receiving yardage in 2023, playing with mediocre QBs. I don’t think he faded that much in one season. Sometimes coaches make things too complicated, increasing the difficulty for a player to pick things up when joining a team in mid season. It can also be that players are just slow to pick things up. The main thing I like about Cooper is that he’s not a bigmouthed diva. He’s quiet and nothing was heard about him not getting playing time and targets. I think, with Brady staying and a full offseason adapting to the system, Cooper could be a good weapon for this team.
  8. Well, there are things like the salary cap and being able to put together a 53 man roster.
  9. Wasn’t it Beane who made the comment about Kincaid needing to get stronger to better compete? Maybe that had something to do with the trainer being let go.
  10. I had just read something that they were like one of the top teams with the fewest injuries for the 3rd straight year.
  11. When I went to the Super Bowl at Stanford, YA Tittle sat behind me.
  12. Anyone want to wager he gets another job?
  13. Yeah, he had a good game but I think they should’ve given it to the whole Eagles defensive line. They were awesome. I came on here the other day and said the pass rush doesn’t matter if KC runs the short pass game like they did vs the Bills. Boy, was I wrong! Mahomes got so antsy from being hit, he was rushing passes with a clean pocket, which I know was rare in this game. it was the kind of game that pretty much ended Tony Eason’s career after the 85 Bears harassed him or Jared Goff’s performance for a couple years after the Patriots pummeled him. Mahomes seems to be a different breed who shouldn’t be affected by this game but who knows.
  14. And he’s a horrible actor.
  15. I bet he’s not ‘smiling’ now. Why did it take them a month to make this decision?
  16. I watched an Eagles national game late in the season, when I was convinced the Bills would have a hard time beating them. Their lines are arguably the best. They are so big and physical and would likely have also dominated the Bills.
  17. I believe this management team will try to do something big. They have the track record in making all the moves to go get Josh, the trade for Diggs, and the signing of Von Miller, even though that didn’t work out.
  18. With their current structure of offense, they don’t need a #1 WR. That’s the point of their approach.
  19. Yes, if the Bills had made it, and when they do, I prefer to watch by myself in my man cave. There are too many distractions at SB parties. I want to hear the announcers. I don’t want to have to ask ‘where is Player X?’ in the 3rd Qtr when the sideline reporter talked about an injury in the 2nd Qtr but I couldn’t hear it. I don’t want to miss hearing something because Joe Schmoe is all excited about being 2 game minutes away from winning $25 for the end of the Quarter in SB squares. Since Super Bowl commercials don’t matter to me anymore, I prefer to watch the game at my own pace and FFWD thru them. Finally, if the Bills were to lose, I would prefer to suffer by myself and also not take the chance that there’s someone there rooting for the opponent as there was at a SB25 party I attended, when me & most of the guys there were ready to punch him in the face. Fortunately for him, he read the room and got out of Dodge.
  20. Yeah, remember Who Wants to be a Millionaire in primetime? It started out as a special event in August of 1999 with half hour shows. It became popular so they expanded to one hour shows. Ratings were so good that they expanded to multiple days and eventually 5 nights per week. The overexposure led the public to tire of the show and ratings began to fall in the 2000-01 season. They dropped even more the following season and the show was cancelled with its final episode airing in June 2002. Their greed killed a good thing in less than 3 years.
  21. I say, if they have multiple teams in Europe, they can figure it out. So, a team from the West Coast flies all the way to Europe for a Sunday game, you schedule another game for them say on the following Thursday, and they just stay. Then they have 10 days until their next game to recover from the travel. If you have 4 teams in the Europe Division, each team will have the 6 games against each other. Make it a 5 team division, and half of their schedule will be in division. All that being said, I hate this Europe BS. How long before the Arabs offer a boatload of money so they can have teams? You think these greedy SOBs would block someone from buying a team that’s for sale and moving it to Dubai?
  22. Yeah! Well deserved! They would’ve not won the division or either of the playoff games without his leadership and excellent play. Thanks for posting the video since I didn’t watch the broadcast. As Josh always says: GO BILLS!
  23. Didn’t somebody here just suggest this in the last couple days? Let’s get a pass rush!
  24. Send the Chiefs there on a one-way trip. To the moon, Patrick! Bang! Zoom!
