I may have told this story before... When I was in Desert Storm, I was told to give unlimited access to a NYT reporter who wanted to interview some soldiers. One of my soldiers was quoted as saying, “Tell President Bush to get out of his fishing boat in Kennebunkport and come down here.” That critical remark was noticed by the entire chain of command from the Secretary of Defense on down and caused me a lot of trouble. But my soldier never said it. The reporter asked if anyone was willing to have that quote attributed to him. A young PFC who had said nothing resembling the quote agreed to the attribution. Some of the soldiers present speculated that the reporter had already written the article on the plane to Saudi and just needed some naive young soldiers to agree to some prewritten quotes. That's how I feel about Dunne's hit piece on McD. Dunne had an opinion and sought out people who would support his proposition. He didn't try very hard to find opposing viewpoints, just enough to claim he made an effort to be balanced. The main thesis of the article was determined before any interviews were conducted and no contrary view or datapoints could have changed Dunne's poisoned mind. I liked Dunne before that article and haven't read anything he's written since. Not because he doesn't like McD. Lots of folks here don't like McD and I'm fine with that. But because, for me, Dunne lost all credibility as a journalist with that article.

If this didn’t involve Jerry jones I think the nfl community would’ve had a more honest discussion about the trade. I really do understand it for both teams but the cowboys continue to get dunked on for it haha they were more than a Micah parsons away and while I think Jerry exaggerated a bit there’s def truth to the whole ‘paying a DE not great against the run almost 50 million is a little nuts’ line of thinking. we completely took their pass rush out of the game by just running the ball straight down their throats two years ago and I don’t think you’re gonna win anything with that issue ongoing there’s a good chance Jerry blows those two picks haha but that’s kinda a separate issue 😂

really good doc on Netflix...A horror show in middle America. Sad. to brighten your mood I offer this in the hopes of broadening your awful musical taste.

Well NewEra, If you want to assume we've got the win in the bag if we meet in the playoffs this year, I totally get it. I can't say I share that opinion. Even with multiple turnovers they were right there at the end last year.

Fixed

I'm fine with him having some lapses as long as he makes some plays, too, or at least isn't a major liability like Elam in the KC playoff game. Not just for the sake of this game, but for his confidence going forward. The Bills are doing to need either Strong or Hairston this year, maybe both.

Just like that “DAMNING” McDermott hit piece that everybody forgot about within a month.

Whew! I’m glad I saw this, I was just about to use the same quote. That would have been embarrassing! I think the least harmful creature on earth was the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man. How did that turn out? Did the bunny have sad cow eyes? The height is about right, I think. I saw a guy yesterday wearing a tee shirt with a giraffe on the front saying “Moo, I’m a horse.” It could be another one of those adjustable Combo-Creatures, like Mr Potato Head? I know I barely know anything. I’m more self aware than many others on that front.

People get hung up on the receivers but the chiefs being abysmal at running the football is probably influencing this a lot more than a dropoff in wr talent. You can pretty much play with the lightest box you want and still stop the run and get pressure on mahomes these days

I hate that this is a prime time game. The only thing I miss from the drought were the 1pm games. Truly the best.

The implications to the Bills are pointless unless we win games. A little early to talk about playoff implications

Lots of vomiting here. Gross.

I mean that was kinda an aberration…that bills team was never gonna even entertain forcing NE into a divisional race. Chiefs have two other playoff caliber teams in their division though and just lost to one of them. Having the division locked up so early and usually a bye has let them get really healthy for the playoff push and even if the chargers push them but come up short it’s still a pretty big deal if we lost to Miami week one and got outplayed equal to what we saw from kc last night I think there would rightfully be a ton of panic around here despite our history of whooping their ass and winning the afc east haha. That feels like a more meaningful hypothetical here

Strong is getting praise

People said I was a corpse when I was still playing.

Taking a guy like Worthy for gimic like plays isn't a bad idea, but taking him in 1st round, and then using him as an every down player is risky. Could turn out this is the only injury of his career or was just lucky last year. Was funny injury happened right after announcers said KC plans to use him more this year

Hammers Lot opens at noon for ravens vs Bills game.

A fan base with a positive attitude during preseason? Isn't that how it's supposed to be?

Drove by the stadium earlier. Noticed a sign for parking behind the bar at Suthwestern & Abbott…$70 😱 It doesn’t seem that long ago that you could buy a game ticket for less than that.

Oh, I’m certainly not trying to say it can’t happen, because it obviously does. I’m just pointing out that it is the rare exception and not the rule. I didn’t see the game last night, but apparently he was injured by a teammate who had zero intention of hurting him. Imagine some guys with bad intent getting ahold of him. Anyone can get hurt, but that small size that makes him fast also makes him much more vulnerable to injury and less effective in the run game. There, I said it, so now he’s heading to the Hall of Fame.

Divisional loss is huge…even if all it does is make them play starters week 17/18 on their path to winning the division still.. they always seem to be freakishly healthy come playoff time and that+ the usual bye has a lot to do with it. Even their infamous struggle down the stretch year they still got to rest starters because they had no shot at the 1 or 2 seed and had no division competition
