I think a fruitcake may be more appropriate.

Sports journalism went way down when hot takes became popular. Did this all start with Jim Rome? It seemed he started it with fan takes. Then ESPN created all those shows with nothing but quick takes. Now that seems to be about all there is. Hard to find much good in depth analysis. I like GMF but even half of that is based on takes as they go around the table with quick answers to the same question or topic.

Drew “The Statue” Bledsoe?

Where did you find the alternate info? Is Poyer an alternate?

IIRC after Cole limped off the field, McKenzie was in and Josh targeted him on consecutive pass attempts.

A Super Bowl with replacement players?!. Have to track down Shane Falco!

The NBA did it!

Using a fake vaccination is supposed to be a federal offense. Where’s the FBI?

Reps are from the coach, unless the GM wants to justify his roster move. Since those guys work in tandem, I don’t think Beane would be forcing McD to play Sanders over Davis.

Look at Jack Kemp’s yearly stats. They weren’t much different.

Since the OP was “favorite QBs”, I’m on the fence on Ferguson. He may be #3 when it comes to stats, but All those interceptions and then hanging his head walking off the field makes it hard for me to call him a favorite. I think I’m Allen over Kelly at this point because of the better attitude and relationship with teammates., plus his overall abilities.

He’s a clown. Mispronounces a lot of names when he does the rapid fire halftime highlights and then laughs about it.

His tossing of the tablet was priceless and reminiscent of Belichick’s tossing of the phone last season.

And a few years ago people were complaining that the Bills had an offense from the 70s and when were they going to join the 21st century and develop a passing game like the rest of the league

I found it interesting when the broadcast team called Josh ‘a more mobile Rothlisberger’ when the guy he’s more like, Cam Newton, was playing in the same game.

On one of his holding calls, he towered over the guy he was trying to block. He just enveloped him. It was like any average size adult playing against a 5 year old. Impossible to block him at chest level. I guess he should’ve just left him alone.

The NBA and NBAPA agreed to the same thing. Some NBA players even suggested they stop testing. I think odds are likely we see a shutdown again in sports. I read an article by Fauci where he said Omicron may be less severe but a lot more contagious so you have just as likely, if not more, chance of people getting it and it becoming severe.

Yeah, I saw a recent ranking of NFL head coaches that had McDermott as #5. That can be debated but the bottom line is that the opinion of those writers count more than that of some on here.

You know, there are several posters who have been calling for McDermott to be canned and I have to laugh. What short memories! This team had a 17 year playoff drought and he’s taken them to the playoffs 3 times in 4 years, and most likely a 4th in 5 years. However, if one took a look at his full resume, losing to that crappy Jags team for one of their two wins should be a big black mark, especially when your team was considered a Super Bowl contender.

That brings to mind the infamous Hank Bullough. That was back before NFL Season Ticket so I didn’t get to see many games but there were so many games with him as coach where they had good halftime leads, like 17-3 and the opponent would obviously make adjustments and win 20-17. My thoughts were exactly that he must’ve thought they were doing good so no adjustments necessary.

How about James Conner having a Pro Bowl type season with Arizona? He was a free agent available to everyone and signed for just $1.75M.

Yeah, I want a MLB in the mold of Mike Singletary. Hyper, very aggressive, smells out plays before the O-linemen even get to him, like those plays Milano made in the 4th Qtr vs New England.

I’ve occasionally had this thought: If given the choice right now, who would you rather have, Diggs or Justin Jefferson? I would choose Jefferson.

There have been plays where he catches the ball and starts to go down as if he’s expecting a hit and no defender is there yet. Last season he was so good after the catch. Even the broadcast team commented about him ducking on one play

Almost every TV in game analysis of the Bills O-Line brings up communication. While many of you have continuously roasted the guards, and with good reason, I keep saying Morse is also a weak link. The center, with help from the QB, is supposed to call out the blocking assignments at the line. If they’re continuing to have communication issues, Morse is a big part of the problem. Also, maybe the O-Line collectively is just dumb. Teams have been running these stunts all season, opponents see it on film and these guys still keep screwing it up. Darryl Williams seems to be a key culprit as several times I’ve seen him by himself looking for someone to block while 2 defenders have steamrolled one of his line mates and are in Josh’s grill. Furthermore, if the O-Line coaches aren’t getting thru to these guys, they’re another problem and maybe the players need a new voice. With basically the same personnel as last season, I don’t understand how these guys regressed this much. I’ve said before, there were numerous times last season when Josh had an unbelievable amount of time in the pocket, for which I played the plays back and he had 7 to 9 seconds. This season we frequently see Josh take his drop and there’s already somebody there he has to evade.
