I don't think we need a $30 million, 150 target X WR. I want a John Brown like X WR whos speed and route running scares defenses. Most every team has a defense altering X WR

preseason Bills @ Tampa info/questions
Einstein's Dog replied to Einstein's Dog's topic in The Stadium Wall
Tampa's fanbase is much worse so tickets should be even cheaper. I'm definitely holding out. Becomes a question of whether starters will play at all or not. Used to be last preseason none played, but now with just 3 games the routine may be different. It is two weeks before the season. -
Purdy and 49’ers extension. 5 years 265 million
Mister Defense replied to DJB's topic in The Stadium Wall
Okay, but the first 'point' is just a literal statement--albeit with some loaded language--and so your point is completely missing. As it is just stating that he played poorly but still won. (Can be said about most/all good/great/HOF quarterbacks, and likely several times, in each career. So what is your point?) Secondly, obviously true, overall that the Lions were in the driver's seat last year because they had a better team than their opponents. BUT, having an excellent quarterback, as the other three teams mention also do, is a seminal, even vital part of that team. Would you agree with that statement, and that having those 4 quarterbacks were essential parts of that team concept for each and for their success? Goff's stats the last three years: 2022: 65% CP, 4438 yards, 7.6 YPA, and 29 TDS and & 7 INTs 2023: 67%, 4575 yards, 7.6, YPA, and 30 TDs and 12 INTs 2024: 72%, 4,629 yards, 8,6 YPA, and 37 TDs and 12 INTs Those are superb stats, wouldn't you agree? And would you agree quarterback play like that, excellent across the board the last 3 seasons, was an essential part of that team idea you speak of? And that without superb quarterback play like Goff has demonstrated, it is likely the Lions did not do nearly as well as they did? Again, kind of difficult to actually understand your main points, so you may agree with what I say above-?? I don't know -

But you're isolating one incident where Goff played crap and his team won in spite of him. What about his offence needing 34 points against GB to win by 3? Or 40 points against SF to win a one score game? Or losing with 42 points against the Bills? -
It's done sliding? Someone just dumped $600 million yesterday. Plenty of time for it to drop still.

Is there a team in all of sports that has endured the heartbreak of a Bills fan? Jets and Browns fans have it bad. But Bills lose in spectacular fashion- kickoff returns, hailmarys, laterals, missed FG, ref screw jobs, braindead coaching decisions, Plummer hitting Darrick Holmes and returning it 99 yards for a TD, McKelvins 200 yard return, making every Saint defender miss at least once, and getting tackled at the one as time expired, yada, yada. Y'all know the heartbreak, I don't need to explainit to Bills Mafia

I'm just curious what people are expecting out of an X WR in this offense? Everyone expecting/wanting a 150 target, 30 million dollar a year, super star #1 WR I just don't think it's happening. Seems like the team wants big guys who can block on a cost controlled contract. In a perfect world they'd turn into AJ Brown but they'd probably settle for Mack Hollins. I know that hurts all the stat loving fantasy football guys but I'm guessing we'll still end up top ten in scoring.

The American Media Should Not Be Trusted

There is a huge difference between Harris and trump. There was price gouging going on after the pandemic. Trump shot himself in the foot and is trying to strong arm companies to cover his ass. We all knew prices from tarrifs would be passed on to the consumer. You're comparing apples and oranges. Plus Harris was a proposal, people showed Harris what they thought of her agenda with their vote. Trump is doing this in real time. Come up with a better analogy.

No no no, the bump in the market post election had nothing to do with the fact that Donald Trump won. It was the market's way of giving a referendum and thank to Joe Biden's presidency.

If Tampa is like Buffalo, tickets will be going for $6 days before kickoff. -
Some vets and rookies taking in the bandits game.
PromoTheRobot replied to Chicharito's topic in The Stadium Wall
Compared to Bills and Sabres season tickets, they are a bargain. Second row 300 seats are $250 each. $25/game. -
What good OT did you think they should have drafted instead of Moore or Worthy? The Chiefs, as you may recall, traded a first round pick for Orlando Brown and won a Super Bowl with him. I think it’s fair to say they know that OT is important.

I think he'll unretire once he can pass a physical. 34 is pretty young in QB years.

CoudyBills replied to DJB's topic in The Stadium Wall
Probably wise to put that in the original post. I know it is more fun to bait responses and come in and tell people why they are so dumb, but it is much easier to just add the reason to the first comment. -
To be clear: you CAN successfully implement top-down price control policies in certain limited situations (with “capping” or “flooring” preferred over “fixing”). Price gouging collusion in, say, the aftermath of a natural disaster is an example of a free market failure, and it is one such scenario during which the temporary use of price controls would be fine. Price setting is an emergent collective phenomenon, but it’s ultimately done by individual employers based on their anticipated operating profit margins. What Trump appears to be doing, however, is applying an economic band aid over the early stages of an economic gunshot wound. You can’t just “art-of-the-deal” micromanage your way out of international supply shock inflation LOL… As far as we know, at least, Walmart is intending to set prices based on legitimate prior knowledge of impending supply shocks.

Keon Coleman success by route - Not pretty
harmonkillebrew replied to DJB's topic in The Stadium Wall
Problem is Beane seems to have a WR X type that is just not that productive in the league. The big, physical jump ball guy, rather than the fast, quick, wins with separation guy. Coleman is the former and there was literally no doubts about his weaknesses at the draft. It was all over his college tape and showed in his rookie year. He can't get open, except on slants and flats. He doesnt' have the physical traits nor the route running expertise. Now, he could develop the latter still, but he has an uphill battle given the lack of physical traits. Many scouts pegged him as a heavy slot, so its not surprising to see he did best in slants. The only reasons he was productive at all as a rook, was Josh. He dimed him on back shoulder throws and scramble plays. Keon will never be a #1, but he could be a solid contributor and dawg. Hope he learns to play special teams, so he can take on more of the Mad Mack role -
Does the placement of the bye week really matter?
Ethan in Cleveland replied to Billsfed1's topic in The Stadium Wall
Get rid two preseason games, add an 18th game and a second bye week. Everyone gets one bye week in the first 9 games and a second one in the second 9 games. Problem solved. -
I should have bought the dip but I didn't realize the White House would actually engage in insider trading. I did time the market well and ended up with a 10% gain however. That was stressful.

I give it a B- He can and must do better.
