DrDawkinstein Posted July 25, 2023 Posted July 25, 2023 (edited) Watched Ep 4 last night. Focused on family. As a girl-dad it just made me like all these guys more, especially Mahomes. Also pretty cool with the deep dive they did into playcalls and all the studying and work these guys have to put in just to be able to repeat the words they heard in their headset. Love this behind the scenes stuff! 22 hours ago, blacklabel said: Lastly there's Kirk... stinky, doofus-faced, rat-nosed, total weenie Kurt. I've kinda always caught jerkface vibes from that dude. He seems like a nice guy on the surface but make no mistake, this man is making lampshades out of human skin in his storage shed in his downtime. There's just something about him. That and I once saw him scream at and the shove a volunteer referee for a charity flag football game Kurk was playing in. Have I let that one incident shape my entire opinion of Kurd? I sure have. But also....he's just a weenie. This is EXACTLY how I felt about Cousins... until I watched this series. He's still a dork, but he seems much more genuine and down to earth after watching this. One thing is for sure, he is one tough SOB. Just sayin. The dynamic shown between Cousins and new coach O'Connell is super interesting. It seems most times O'Connell is barely tolerating Cousins, and usually Cousins in butting heads with O'Connell. 4 minutes ago, DJB said: ******Rumor***** Interesting! My predicition for Season 2 was Josh, McCorkle, and Rodgers. I think Josh is a shoe-in. But I'm SHOCKED Rodgers would actually give anyone as much access as Netflix has in this series. We'll see...

But I’ve read that Manning apparently did not say those 3 other than they are trying to get a season 2. Seems the op if the linked article is spitballing those 3 names 1 Quote

I can't hate on anyone who is at least that self-aware of his dorkiness and leans into it. I absolutely appreciate how little he has talked about "faith" in this show. Maybe that is a Netflix decision, but it definitely helps him come across as more normal. Unlike all the weird stuff we saw out of Carson Wentz in Hard Knocks. 1 Quote

DrDawkinstein Posted July 27, 2023 Posted July 27, 2023 Finished the season last night. All in all, great show. Loved the deep behind the scenes looks and access the players gave this show. Loved that, thanks to having Josh, I'm able to get back to being a fan of football again and not so bitter as I was through the drought. That all said, it was also a bit discouraging to see the level that the Chiefs operate at. With Reid as their HC, and offensive mastermind, it's obvious they are a step above everyone else. Even us and Cinci, who can play them hard and beat them. It's still the Chiefs' conference for the forseeable future. Doesnt mean we wont get our shot, but it means we need to be PERFECT to pull it off. And I'm not sure our coaches can get us there. We'll see. I'm not trying to be a chicken little, it was just a bit of an eye opener. Some jealousy mixed in there as well. One last observation, speaking of the Chiefs. So many coaches got so much facetime on this show. We saw a bunch of Reid and Matt Nagy in-game comments on the sideline, a ton from the Trainers as well. But through all 8 episodes almost NOTHING from Eric Bieniemy. It wasnt until Episode 8 that he got a couple of appearances, and even those were light/weak. I dont know what that means exactly, but it was noticeable. Nagy seemed much more like the OC than Bieniemy. 3 Quote

Part of me says yes, learned more about your enemy (without being in complete awe of him). Or, screw it, do your own thing.. you’re a creative genius and you’ll chart your own course. I’m not sure…??? Josh is struggling with the decision at this very moment. With his stature it's his call to make... the ball is in his court. On 7/13/2023 at 4:27 AM, JerseyBills said: Thanks!!. I saw a commercial last week and totally forgot when it airs About to watch now , I have dayboff A dayboff??? Is that like an afternoon delight? What are we talking about here?

On 7/25/2023 at 10:03 AM, DJB said: ******Rumor***** From PFT: "At a time when plenty of quarterbacks have said they’re not interested in becoming one of the focal points of the Quarterback series on Netflix, Bills quarterback Josh Allen hasn’t said, “No.” He also hasn’t said, “Yes.” “I don’t want any outside distractions,” Allen said. “I don’t want any unnecessary distractions for myself or this team. I’m not saying that it would be. I’m a little undecided on whether I would want to do it or not. I go back and forth sometimes in my mind, but as of right now I’m just trying to be the best quarterback for this team.” This would be a great year for Allen to do it, from a viewer’s perspective. But the Bills have enough pressure already, enough things that could potentially go haywire." I'm sure Josh has had more than one conversation with Mahomes about this decision. Quote
