  1. Past hour
  2. In that case, keep him out of practice, too. We must lead the league in practice injuries.
  3. I'm not giving up hope on Palmer to help stretch the defense or at least clear out space for Kincaid and co underneath
  4. To the lefty idiots dancing on the coffins, the F'n engine fell off the plane during takeoff. It was found on the runway. Nothing to do with ATC.
  5. Very true but Trump didn’t have to hire them!
  6. Nice post OP. My favorite line was: "On To The 2027 Draft: New York Jets" 😂 The AFC is wide open. There is no reason to not still have Super Bowl aspirations. There is no team that scares me in the AFC. Indy has looked good and Taylor is a stud, but Daniel Jones is their QB; we proved once again we can beat KC (still gotta do it in the post-season of course if we meet up with them); Baltimore may not make the playoffs; Pittsburgh is a paper tiger; Jacksonville, please. And I still think we are a better overall team (and obviously more seasoned and with the best QB) right now than the Pats, Broncos, and Chargers (although they are all good teams with good QBs). No other AFC team has more than 3 wins currently. I'm not saying we couldn't lose to any of those teams listed above, just that none of them scare me like Baltimore last year or K.C. for several years. This is a good year to make a run. And the NFL is funny. Perceptions change every week with every win or loss. The Bills were ranked 9th in the Power rankings before the KC game (did anyone really think we were only the 9th best team in the league?)---after beating KC, we jumped back up to #4 (KC fell from #3 to #6). Seattle jumped 5 places into #1 overall with a win against the 3-6 Commanders, The Rams jumped up 5 spots into 2nd place in the Power rankings after beating 1-8 New Orleans. I know Power Rankings don't mean anything, just using it as an example about how fickle people's perceptions are of teams throughout the season. And as far as having an easy easy schedule, well, that is starting to balance out a bit now. Here are the win percentages of teams that the current top four AFC leaders (by record) have beaten. Colts' (7-2) wins: Miami (2-6), Denver (7-2), Tenn (1-8), Las Vegas (2-6), Arizona (3-5), Chargers (6-3), Titans (1-8). 36% win percentage of opponents. Denver's (7-2) wins : Tenn (1-8), Cinn (3-6), Philly (6-2) Jets (1-7), Giants (2-7), Dallas (3-5), Houston (3-5). 29.82% win percentage of opponents. Patriots' (7-2)wins: Miami (2-7), Carolina (5-4), Buf (6-2), New Orleans (1-8), Tenn (1-8), Cleveland (2-6), Atlanta (3-5). 33.33% win percentage of opponents. Bills' (6-2) wins: Baltimore (3-5), Jets (1-7), Miami (2-7), New Orleans (1-8), Carolina (5-4), Kansas City (5-4). 32.69% win percentage of opponents. If the Bills had won the Patriots game (they lost by 3 points), the win percentage of teams they beat would be 40.35% and the Pats win percentage of teams they beat would be 26.92%. Obviously you could do that with any team...well, if they had won that game...I'm just trying to point out that perception is such a moving target in the NFL. If the Bills win that game, they are a 1.5 games ahead of the Pats and with a much stronger win percentage of teams they beat. The Bills are still one of the best teams in the league, regardless of other factors. It could still be our year. Nice post OP.

  7. No worries mate. An honest overlook. The point is that we should do it and remove this function from political manipulation;
  8. Undersized and under conditioned
  9. This back and forth reminds me of the discussion (such as it was) regarding who won the Ryan O’Reilly trade. Doesn’t matter how many 40 goal seasons Tage Thompson has. Blues won a Cup and O’Reilly was playoff MVP. Blues won the trade. Similar to the Stanford trade. If Colts somehow manage to win a Super Bowl with Gardner, they win the trade.
  10. I dont know I think we are going to dismantle the Dolphins.
  11. They are too run focused. They're more titans. The broncos are the Vikings inversion. All defense and an offense capable of not sucking.
  12. It's a matter of time before expanding scotus is done. It is not being said and the Democrats are smart to be quiet about it. The democratic legal brains (hard to believe there are such) are getting plans formulated to do this. The Dems have found they can't sway public opinion on matters of many things nor force their willpower over law. They're going to simply change it. It's going to be an amazing mental gymnastic maneuver that most liberals are too stupid to understand and will willfully enjoy getting their power. There is only a delay. There is no stopping it.
  13. New Zealand. Australia. Canada. Germany. 100 countries. Self funded. Detached from gov funding. "Today, roughly 100 countries receive their air traffic control services from user-funded utilities. Australia, Canada, Germany, and the U.K. all have newer, more-advanced technology than our Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), and all of them are self-funded and independent of government budgets. If any of their governments were to have a shutdown like ours, air traffic control would continue to operate normally." https://reason.com/2025/11/05/americas-longest-government-shutdown-shows-why-we-must-free-air-traffic-control-from-politics/ Roundy isn't bright enough to know this. Others are, and it gets this necessary system away from idiotic political manipulation.
  14. The Jets for sure. I'm a big fan of Adonai Mitchell's potential. That pick up could be HUGE.
  15. I'd like to zag and praise Beane for not trading for someone just to "make a move." As the dust settles, it's clear that no one who we really wanted was going to be traded. We are going to need draft picks - our cap will always be a problem now, as long as Allen is QB. We're in good shape. I love what I saw Sunday against KC, and think that our offense AND defense will continue to develop as we move along this season. If we can stay healthy, this could be our year.
  16. Nah, they just went and got Sauce because he was an upgrade at CB that they needed on a roster competing for the 1 seed.
  17. I would take that entire roster with 2025 JA any day over this one. Better WRs Better Defense Serviceable RB
  18. I think we can say Dallas really did themselves right with the Micah trade and came out on top here already. They traded a one dimensional pass rusher, who at Dallas's peak still wasn't winning with him when they had the #5 defense and #1 offense in the league. They avoided paying him a cap choking $48M (more than most QB's make) per year which would further deteriorate their already not good enough roster due to cap restrictions over time. What they turned Micah into was a multiple pro bowl DT - Kenny Clark, one of the best DT's in football in his prime Quinnen Williams, an extra 1st round pick, and the cap space to keep Pickens - not to mention more cap flexibility to make more moves. Micah Parsons vs 1st round pick, 2 Pro Bowl DT's, Pickens, and cap flexibility. I think its pretty hard to argue against the fact that Dallas did pretty well in the Micah trade. Does it mean Cowboys go on to win a SB, no, they are still the Cowboys and still have other issues. Only one team can win, and they are not that "one" team yet. But, its still a better place for them to be than with Micah and his contract. Meanwhile, Packers are not any better with Micah - and don't really look good enough to likely win their division let alone a Super Bowl. They lost/tied three bad teams in the last 5 games, created a hole at DT, have a $48M cap choking contract restricting their ability to build in FA, and also gave up 2 first round picks reducing their ability to build more talent through the draft. Its still Dallas, I am sure they still wont be going anywhere, but none the less they are in a better position from trading Micah than they would have been keeping him.
  19. Times change. Yesterday was an excellent example. And it only took 1 year. I don't think we'll campaign on those issues. Easy answer to the abortion question is that SCOTUS ruled on it. That doesn't preclude us from trying to expand SCOTUS but it need not be mentioned or highlighted.
  20. Well, they'll be another Trade Deadline next year.
  21. You are correct. There certainly are. McDaniel is in over his head as the head coach. And there are a lot of distractions in South Florida. I live part time in Fort Lauderdale. And my boys who are in their 20's live in Miami. A lot of fun, (if you know what I mean) that can take your focus away from what you should be prioritizing. In the high rise I live in down there, I rode up the elevator one day with this huge dude. I had a Bills T shirt on. And he made a favorable comment about Bills Mafia. I asked who he was. And it was Patrick Paul. The Dolphins Left OT. He was real friendly. Just massive. And I am over 6 feet.
  22. No they got him to cover Nico Collins in their division. Plus btj whenever he rebounds. they have had a great year but have not wont heir division by any means. They have two games with Houston left and a game with Jax left. there is a very long way to go. We are finally to football season and the better teams will start showing themselves definitively
  23. The Bills missed out on the top WR's in that years draft. The Bills were drafting 27th and were able to trade up to 25. From picks 20-23 all the better WR's were taken. JSN/Q Johnston/Flowers/Addison were all taken back to back to back to back. The Bills biggest need going into the 2023 draft was finding a second pass catcher opposite Diggs. They were drafting 27th so by the time they got to a place where they could trade up a slot or two all those WR's were gone. The next WR taken was Mingo by Carolina at pick 39 firmly in the 2nd round. Kincaid was considered the top TE in the draft. The Bills basically took the best pass catcher they could find at pick 25 and it was the wise choice in my opinion. Kincaid had a really nice rookie year adding another reliable receiving option to the core. Better to get a very good TE than reach for a WR. I also think holding onto the 56th pick to take Torrence as opposed to trading up made sense although JSN probably would have been worth it but hard to project that at the time.
