[Vague Title] Trade alert...
BobChalmers replied to Bills4life1924's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
lol - yeah like maybe they don't have anyone who can play Center w/o getting Allen killed? -
What non-QB injury would hurt the Bills the most?
BobChalmers replied to BisonMan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Morse and Edmunds. I'm a big Allen fan and believer, but I'm not even certain Allen is #1 if you included QB's - Barkley's shown enough. 1. Morse 2. Edmunds 3. Allen 4. Milano 5. Hauschka Guys it clearly isn't: any 1 WR or TE any 1 RB Any other OL besides Morse (they have depth everywhere else) DT tons of depth, same at DE, though the dropoff from Hughes is real - Murphy is going to bounce back Milano is not far behind Edmunds - LB depth is pretty suspect Tons of depth at CB, decent depth at S Kicker? -
Yuck - as someone who is turning 56 a month from tomorrow - I concur that's too young! Also agree Banks was a good writer - he was one of the best - solid takes w/o any of the stupid trolling too many have fallen into.

More to the point </Castillo> The whole stable of RB's will look amazing by comparison this year. -
Cody Ford takes 1st reps at RG
BobChalmers replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
This has been my desired 5 OL since the draft - and Nsekhe is a very good OT - no rush to find a new ORT. -
Thanks - as others have said already - the NFL (like many "content creators") is still struggling with how to deal with the new media realities. They try to address some of it by providing their own cable and internet access, but the value added of the new media isn't the medium, it's the diversity. They just can't be all things to all their fans - or at least not without investing a lot more money with dubious return on investment. In fairness re: press credentials - just one example of the struggle - there's a limit to how many passes you can hand out, and even how many people you can vet. How to decide who's real and who's just some guy. Cover 1 does great work that appeals to a hard core sliver of the fan base, but their YouTube videos/broadcasts only get hits in the hundreds. The internet/social media create a blurry line between "real" press and wonky part-timers. In other realms where (unlike the NFL) there is no content monopoly and the overall dollar values are much smaller, the proliferation of outlets is generally welcomed - they have much less to lose, and happily accept all the publicity they can get. btw - feel free to d/l, edit, and distribute any of my papers or online content! Just attribute it! We researchers will generally take all the visibility we can get!

OMG - seriously. Eli is hot garbage - among the worst in the league right now. Even when he was winning his two SB's he was hardly "great". Cam may be poised for a good year, but yeah, he's only average lately.

A company stating what they want does not make it the law - as they admit in their caveat above: "to the full extent provided under the copyright laws of the United States and other countries." Editorial use is why you can do movie reviews with edited clips, and news commentary, with edited clips, AND sports analysis with edited clips on the commercial entity YouTube - which runs ads on most videos (unless you pay them subscription fees). In other news - for the purpose of commenting/analyzing/editorializing - people often post game and all-22 clips HERE on TBD - a site which makes money by running ads! Having said that - the NFL could cut the Cover 1 guys off from subscribing to their All-22. Not very practical though.

I hope Lorenzo Alexander learned his lesson.

Why would Belicheat do this???
BobChalmers replied to BillsWest's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Hah - it really does look like him. I wouldn't put it past BB to fly out to California under the name "Gunther Houck" to scam the free haircut. -
Aaron Schatz Football Outsiders-- Still Doubts Josh
BobChalmers replied to JESSEFEFFER's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
No, they really don't research much of anything. They grab a pile of easily obtained stats and run them through a spreadsheet. -
Ty Nsekhe currently on Jim Rome
BobChalmers replied to Seasons1992's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Just my speculation, but I predict Cody Ford ends up at Guard.
