Warner from age 31 to 35 had a really rough five year stretch. Then he seemed to find himself again with the Cardinals to close his career. He's one of the few that started his career hot. Was middling and often injured in the middle. Then finished his final few years like he played his first few years. Really odd career arch.

NHL players get paid a fraction of what NFL players do lol The NHL commissioner is way way worse than Rodger goodell -
Were there ever years you were disinterested in the Bills?

Now, heart breaking losses when they are really close to being able to win the SB, the bad years were easy. I get too caught up in the emotions and need to step back. I'll get back on it, but, its better to take steps back -

Ok, OP, well played. You know this type of data set for our boy is like catnip for us, and you will be handsomely rewarded with Lombardi Trophy emojis 🤩…myself included. -

yes, it counts to me -
I'm not sure how the original Twitter/X poster came up with his stats. I went to check on turnovers (per rajinka's post) and decided to look at TDs as well, but in a slightly different format. I did a TD per how many touches. After doing that (including passing/rushing attempts and receiving targets---all touches), I came out with Aaron Rodgers still being slightly ahead of Josh---if my numbers are correct (no doubt though that Josh will probably take the lead early this upcoming season). Bradshaw and Young also got a slight bump up on my TD list for whatever reason. Doc Brown mentioned Drew Brees, and Figster mentioned Kurt Warner, so I looked up those guys too, as well as Tom Brady. Brees came in at 18.5, Brady at 18.8, and Warner at 20.1 on my TD/Touch list. Just FYI. Anyhow, here is what I came up with for Turnovers and TDs per touch for the 8 players in the original post. Player Turnovers Per Touch Player Touchdowns Per Touch Terry Bradshaw* (TO every) 14.8 (touches) Aaron Rodgers (TD every) 16.71 (touches) Steve Young* 27.8 Josh Allen 16.75 Tony Romo 31.8 Peyton Manning 17.6 Peyton Manning 36.6 Steve Young 17.7 Josh Allen 39.9 Terry Bradshaw 17.8 Lamar Jackson 48.0 Patrick Mahomes 17.8 Patrick Mahomes 53.0 Tony Romo 18.1 Aaron Rodgers 57.3 Lamar Jackson 18.1 It really shows you how good Aaron Rodgers has been to be top of the TD list and bottom of the turnover list (surprising that has equated to only one Super Bowl appearance in 20 seasons). And on that note, it's interesting that 5 of those 8 QBs have a combined 2 SB appearances (as starting QBs), while the other 3 QBs have appeared in 13 combined Super Bowls...kind of shows that it is still a team game and how hard it is to actually reach a Super Bowl. [*For Bradshaw and Young (only), I could not find separate fumbles vs. fumbles lost lists. Not sure when the NFL started differentiating between a fumble and a lost fumble. So, their turnover/touch numbers may be better than they appear above (I assume back in the day a fumble was a fumble no matter who recovered it). However, if I include all of Josh's fumbles and not just lost fumbles (and he had a lot of fumbles that the Bills recovered), his number is still better than both of those older players. So the two players in question probably have slightly better numbers than are shown, but it wouldn't really affect their ranking. For all other QBs, I used fumbles lost stats, not total fumbles...because a recovered fumble is not a turnover.]

I'm not sure what's changed in the past few years with regard to his voice and energy levels, but... My wife and I went to see Paul a few years ago and the show was OUTSTANDING. He played several hours with no break. He played bass, guitar, piano, and obviously sang throughout. He played everything you'd want to hear from the Beatles and Wings. The show was everything I wanted it to be. I actually was in disbelief for much of it. I kept looking up at the stage and thinking "That's a ***** BEATLE UP THERE!!!". Not someone else covering Beatles songs, but an actual Beatle! It boggled the mind. Definitely go see him if you haven't and are a Beatles fan. The guy won't tour forever. It's a bucket list item. Price be damned. Just do it.

Beatles fans are mostly drinking their dinners through a straw and watching re-runs of “Dallas” after craft time, correct?

Bill from NYC replied to Another Fan's topic in The Stadium Wall
Never. The Bills and this board have been with me through great and bad events of my life. I appreciate both, whereas they have both been important to me. One moderator despised me, another dislikes me but tolerates me, and I appreciate this. What I have been able to learn is to be better at handling the horrible losses. I have even come to expect it, but thats ok. Tell me, am I the only poster who suspected that we would lose the 13 second game? I'm saying NO WAY! Things like the (overated) Stevie Johnson dropping the best pass of Fitz's career prepared me for horror stories. The only thing that still gets to me is the focus on the secondary, despite other more important needs. I'm even better with that because I know damn well it will happen again and again and its beyond my control. Many, many years ago (perhaps even 20 years), @SDS posted that he is a bigger fan of Bills Fans than the Bills. I never forgot this post and I agree with hm. To give up on the Bills would be to also give up on the friends I have made from this board and tailgated with, and I can't do it. GO BILLS!!!!!!!! OUR DAY WILL COME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! -
I don't understand posts like this. I have no objection to players being fairly compensated, but I am a fan on THE TEAM. The salary cap is real. Overpaying and guaranteed contracts are generally onerous on the cap, and hurts the chances of signing additional players. Yes, it's a bit unfair for some of these payers but it protects THE TEAM. That's good right? The league needs protection from nutcases like Jimmy Haslem, ruining his franchise for years with the Deshean Watson contract, which is what a large, guaranteed contract could do to a team.
