  2. Stiff. Rawwww. Not a natural football guy IMO. Only has bull rush. Low floor, heigh ceiling. All that said from a fan of the pick. If he develops right he could be a real steal... proli not getting much outta him this year though. But dude will work hard and give himself a chance to develop
  3. internet search / wiki says his birthday is Dec 13
  4. 'Smartest Man Joe Biden Knows' Makes Very Bad Decision When It Comes to Melania Trump's Legal Warning By Nick Arama https://redstate.com/nick-arama/2025/08/14/hunter-response-to-melania-notice-n2192798
  5. Beane does such a great job on these interviews...nothing comes across as fake or disingenuous.
  6. I can’t wait until he meets up with Napoleon Brutus. Iykyk
  7. right people are always saying, 'oh, we just have a Chiefs problem in the playoffs' like everyone in the AFC is in the same boat well the chiefs average 23.5ppg in the playoffs vs everyone except us against us they average 34.75 there is no QB play in nfl history good enough to make up for that discrepancy. the fact that we've even been competitive in these games is staggering
  8. Awww man I really liked him. RIP good sir
  9. Dick Van D y k e, the actor is 100 years old today! Happy birthday!
  10. I will make a "in defense of" piece for the Bills with both hires. Donahoe was highly regarded when he came in given the work he had done with PIT. It was viewed as a stabilizing move at the time and one that the Bills were moving into the future bringing in a strong mind outside the org. It didn't work, but the true sin was not doing so again and instead going internal. Like QB if your GM doesn't work you need to try again with the best candidates possible which many times are outside of your org when your not doing so hot. Ralph instead got a yes man in Marv (with due respect) and the org sunk lower. Whaley was part of the Nix group and had similar vibes as he scouted much of that PIT D which dominated in the 2000s. I honestly think he was a decent GM as he found good players in later rounds and had a real good feel for the FA market regarding affordable options. The problem is he went nuts when the check book opened in 2015 although I'd argue Rex stopped that team from being a playoff group. His move for Watkins also was wayyy too aggressive for a team that was not in position for it. Whaley I at least get why he made those moves because by the time he took over they were desperate to slay the drought and the team had enough talent to make it happen (which kind of did happen in 2017). He never could get out of the way with his EJ pick which hurt him & its been covered in length the missteps with Watkins/2015 FA spending spree, but I honestly think with another go around he would be a pretty good GM as he had a good eye for talent in all rounds and he was really good with finding cheap FA's or trades (remember he traded for Jerry Hughes).
  11. Miami has enough talent that they should outscore a few bad teams. I think it will be the Jets. Fields is not good. It gonna be a race for the bottom tho, I don't expect any serious competition for the division title
  12. No QB has lost to another QB 4 times in a row in the postseason. Even Peyton got a couple over Brady.
  13. Right! Like St. Brown isn't a top 5 guy. He can do this to any secondary.
  14. Just finished episode 2. Hard Knocks is boring now. I miss the old Hard Knocks.
  15. I think you are grossly underestimating Beane and McDermott. Beane is an excellent GM and McDermott is an excellent HC. Both also learned on the job, since they didn't have previous experience at their positions as some of their peers, like Howie Roseman and Andy Reid. I think the Bills might have taken Lamar if they couldn't take Allen. If they took Josh Rosen, I think he would have had a much better career than he had even if he was, at best, a decent NFL starter. The same with Sam Darnold. The Bills would be playoff contenders if not Super Bowl contenders. What would have been sad is that Josh would have been a disaster if he'd gone to the Browns or Jests. The success of Baker and Darnold later in their careers, after they both got some good coaching with other teams, is an indictment of the Browns and Jests FO and coaching staff. Sadly for the young QBs for the Browns, Stefanski is still the Browns HC. No, it wasn't. There was nothing fun about the best part of attending any Bills game was the tailgating because the Bills hadn't lost the game yet. Buddy Nix was a former Bills employee. I think he was a head scout or something under GM John Butler. When Butler left the Bills for San Diego, he took his assistant GM, AJ Smith, and Nix with him. The Bills then hired Tom Donahoe as GM. Something happened between Ralph and Donahoe. I have no idea what it, but after he was fired, Donahoe never got another opportunity with another NFL team. He was persona non grata so it had to be something significant. Russ Brandon didn't "mismanage" the Bills between 2006 and 2014 so much as he had a different agenda than fans. Fans wanted to win football games. Brandon wanted to maximize profits. Brandon had been hired by the Bills a few years before after he left MLB with the distinction of having sold off most of the personnel assets of the World Champion Florida Marlins, so that the Marlins went from World Champions to the worst record in baseball the next season. The Marlins' playroll went from one of the largest in MLB to one of the smallest in one year, too. In 2006, Ralph named Brandon the Bills CEO and Dick Jauron as HC. Marv Levy was a figurehead GM. Jauron was the "talent" selector between 2006-2009 but Brandon controlled the purse strings and decided what players to keep and which players to send packing. Nix and Whaley were essentially talent evaluators, and they were pretty good, but Ralph's health and mental facilities deteriorated, Brandon operated as de facto owner. Under Brandon, the Bills philosophy was always to prioritize profits over winning football games. Brandon's control of the Bills, and also the Sabres, continued until the spring of 2018 when Pegula fired him because of a sexual harassment incident with a Sabres employee who happened to be a friend of Kim Pegula's. Brandon's fall from grace was dissected in the media and on TSW at the time. After Brandon was fired, Pegula gave Beane full control of the Bills. Beane and McDermott have worked together since, and their primary goal has been/ is to win football games rather than maximize profits. Best of all, they're pretty good at their jobs!
  16. Wander finally 'got outta town'. RIP
  17. Does anybody know why he fell so much ?
  18. Mike Greenberg isn’t a Bills fan. this is going to keep happening, louder and louder.
  19. In an earlier life, I used to call into Art's show almost daily. My handle was Armchair QB. He was a legend.
  20. Unless I'm wrong, that is a very team friendly deal
  21. Honestly, Beane is LONG OVERDUE getting a true blue chip player not named “Josh Allen.” Landon Jackson has just as good a chance as anybody else.
  22. The Bills are doing everything in their power to never be chosen for Hard Knocks again because outside of highlighting player personalities the first two episodes have been a nothing burger and I say that as a Bills fan.
  23. And I pass you sitting in your Tesla a half mile from your home in the snow waiting for a tow because the cold drained all the juice out of your car.
