  1. I'm not so sure. We have had top defenses for years. It wouldn't be pretty, but McDermott has won plenty of games with less than superb QB play
  2. I’m 35. So sad and way too young
  3. Of course not, I think McDermott is a good coach tho and can win in a variety of ways. I also think Andy Reid would win 9 games with someone like Blaine Gabbert. Both are good coaches who happen to have elite talents at QB
  4. Sure, but McDermott would have had this team competing hard each week even with Kyle Allen. I wouldn't be surprised to see this as a fringe playoff team without Allen. McDermott is basically Mike Tomlin, they will both not accept a losing season. Bills won 6 games in 2018, starting 4 different QBs (Peterman, Allen, Anderson and Bakley) and one of the worst rosters in football. With a better roster now, even without Allen, I could see McDermott winning 9 ugly ugly games
  5. Josh has some of the best playoff numbers in the history of the NFL. The criticism of Josh is absurd
  6. Some of you may remember my quest to watch every game this year. I didn’t watch every game, Carolina was particularly difficult to watch, but I did watch every bears game because of Fields. The fact there was a “debate” of whether or not to keep him was absurd. He has some of the worst field awareness in the NFL. He fumbled like Peterman threw picks (ironically Peterman was one of his backups) Everyone like to point out that he’s a great athlete, and he is. Probably one of the better athletes at the position. But Josh, Mahomes, Burrow hell even Tua are good enough athletes to play QB. At the end of the day, you have to be able to move the ball through the air and Fields isn’t even close to effective consistently to be a good QB. It’s why he was traded for a conditional 6th. The league sees it too
  7. Me too. Classic guy of a dude who finally got a chance and took full advantage. Happy for him
  8. Don’t worry, he’s keep receipts
  9. I always thought the Bills tried to jump GB for Losman. Gunslinger QB with a huge arm and athletic? Seemed like the perfect dude to sit behind Favre
  10. I've now reached the age where the guys drafted were born in a different century than me. I'm 35
  11. People need to understand that the number of people that can run routes and catch the football is an incredible amount compared to people the can block or set the edge effectively. It’s why guys like Marshall Newhouse can be traded for an asset and Bobby Hart will be in 3 different rosters in a season. It’s why Jadevon Clowney, who has been a massive disappointment, keeps getting contracts. Those guys are much harder to find. Teams should invest high resources into those guys By the same token, guys like Gabe Davis (4th round) Shakir (5th Round) Diggs (5th round) can be effective players despite their draft number.
  12. Fields has some of the worst field awareness in the NFL. If he wasn’t such a good athlete, he would have been benched long ago. But he makes a few highlight runs and people think he has some untapped talent. Great athlete, great arm, horrible awareness. He fumbles like peterman throws picks. As long as Wilson is reasonable competent (which he will be) Fields will stay on the bench
  13. Harris was always one of my favorite patriots (gosh that hurt to write) Dude always ran hard and got the tough yards, fun guy to watch. Was happy when he signed here but was terrified when he got that neck injury. Hope he enjoys his well earned retirement
  14. I remember buying tickets for 5 bucks in college in the lower bowl
  15. I made a very concerted effort last weekend to spend as little as possible on groceries. Planned every meal, omitted things that I didn't need, no snacks, no beer, no extra drinks. 150 bucks. Hell, I've basically stopped drinking just because I can't afford it.
  16. It rough right now. My wife and were looking to buy a bigger house so we did a deep dive on our spending to see where its all going. Daycare is by far the biggest cost. 2300 a month for 3 days a week 2 kids. I'm keeping them home with me for two days a week just to make sure I can feed them the rest of the month. I don't have some ***** job either. If the PSLs come to me and are 5k, I'm not sure I can justify that when I'm struggling to pay for everything else each month. I hate that I have to make that decision, but its a reality so many people are dealing with. I've had seasons for 15 years on and off (took two years off for grad school and a job downstate) Would hurt to give them up, but priorities man.
  17. I used to enjoy going to the Christmas eve games. Saw a very drunk Santa tell a young Titans fan he wasn't going to his house. If they had a home game on Christmas day, very unlikely I would attend
  18. Sammy was extremely talented. That evaluation wasn’t wrong. The trade up, especially in that class, was horrendous
  19. He had 35 catches last year while playing with the league MVP. This would have been worrisome 5 years ago
  20. Same as a comp pick
  21. Hyde was considering retirement i thought?
  22. Think we were the first team to have a kick off specialist too
