  1. Past hour
  2. "It's a terrible thing. He's a terrible governor." MAGA rejoices. What a president.
  3. Replace McDermott with Reid and Bills have 2 superbowls
  4. It's tough because general managers have to balance what you already are, versus what you can or will become the growth of all players is not the same... And some come into the league with their body and their skills closer to maxed.. which is good for instant production, but typically plateaus Then you get players, who have raw unrefined skills with talent ... And it might take those players till year 2-3 to physically catch up with the game but they have more potential Then obviously the players there's the few players who come in with the correct body, the right type of skills and athleticism with a high level of production.. and those guys don't get out of the top 5-10
  5. OK did a Google search and the best I could come up with was "Sounds like the meat of the AB to Buffalo trade was a 1st round pick swap, Steelers move from 20 to 9, and a late round pick or conditional middle round pick sprinkled in. That's not great return." That deal is far more palatable than giving up the 9th overall. The difference in value is equivalent to about the 11th pick of the 2nd round. You want to use another word than "spent"? Fine. Doesn't change the fact that he did little after 2019. You saw how he was with Brady and the Patriots, right? So the answer is "no."
  6. First...let me just say, this is all subjective, no wrong answers here. Mahomes is more than just clutch though. When he had proper weapons he was setting NFL records. With bad weapons his personal stats have taken a little hit...but it doesn't change the fact they still win, and win a lot and because of him. Mahomes has been a starter for 7 years and gone to the AFCCG or more in all 7 season consecutive seasons and was the #1 seed 4 times. He has 5 SB appearances in those 7 years with 3 Rings to go along with multiple MVPs and SB MVP's. And he was the main reason for all that success, not like he was coasting behind a dominant team where he wasn't leaned on. Fun question: Do the Chiefs reach 3 straight Super Bowls if Lamar is there instead of Mahomes? What about Burrow instead of Mahomes? I don't think they reach any Super Bowls the past 3 years with either guy over Mahomes personally and Josh probably was 1 or 2 under his belt instead. So for me, a QB who hasn't made the playoffs since 2022 and another who hasn't been able to perform at the same levels in the postseason are not leap frogging a guy who just went to his 3rd straight SB despite an inferior cast around him for the past 3 years and has a 100% success rate of reaching the AFCCG every year as a starter for all 7 seasons.
  7. We have assumed control
  8. Well I suggested we should not succumb to speculation and withhold judgment until the facts were in and was told people like me, whatever that means, are supporting these killers. Figure that!
  9. No way! We need them to draft cornerbacks.
  10. ..says the sucker and loser who posts drek all the time.
  11. Thank you for the honest correction 😇
  12. Im going to try and be at that one. Depends on the job situation
  13. I'm in love... ...and you're to blame...
  14. I think it’s interesting that there’s only 6 active QB’s that have SB rings as starters, and 4 of them might not be in the league next year Hurts Mahomes Stafford Flacco Rodgers Wilson
  15. It could have been the NBA All-Star game defense. But yeah, pretty much the same thing…
  16. Dang im going to miss that mass of concrete. A lot of history and memories there.
  17. Thank you Buff I shall avail myself of your kind permission. People IMHO get way too excited by 40 times, especially now a days when a good number of players train specifically for the 40 yd dash. Some training that improves a 40 time is applicable to football, like sprints, plyo, deadlifts. But a good bit of it is "pajama olympics", like training for the best acceleration out of a 3 point stance. Josh Allen ran what? a 4.75 second 40? Pat McAfee said to him his rookie year "I think you play faster than that" to which Josh replied "Thank you, I think I do too". Allen's first couple years were notable for defenders taking bad angles to run him down because he was, in fact, faster (and more nimble) than he looked and than his 40 time led them to expect. Those days are gone. Explosion, cutting ability, and the ability to create deception with body cues are all at least equally relevant and while there is a correlation between fast 40 times and playing speed, it's just a correlation. I think you implied the problem fans have with Coleman in your last sentence there. "He has a lot of room to grow and become a really good football player". The problem fans have, is that being drafted with the Bills first pick, fans expected him to walk in and ALREADY BE a really good football player. Instead, Coleman fits Beane's "type" for drafting at the end of the 1st round exactly - an athletic, high ceiling, low floor guy with a world of potential but also a lot of growth needed to realize it.
  18. So Americans "just won't do" those hotel/restaurant/agricultural jobs? Or those types of jobs shouldn't pay the minimum wage? What is it that made Trump back off on enforcement actions at those worksites?
