The counterargument is Aaron Donald, another undersized DT with short arms who still managed to produce at a Hall of Fame level for entire seasons. I don't know how well known this is but Donald had an all-time work ethic. He retired somewhat early specifically because he didn't want to put in the grueling work required for his body type anymore. I'm not going to say Oliver is lazy, but I also don't think he is committing quite as much as he could to reaching his full potential.

Ok, its slow... wondering if we can have a bit of mindless banter... So... pretend Mr Brightside goes away... copyright, people hate it.. whatever... what is the song you wanna see the players enter too or celebrate with... I am gonna put out a few in a poll, but I expect the OTHER category will go big here... (you will notice I am not a Gen Y guy with my choices lol)

I’m pretty bullish on the defense this year. They didn’t lose anyone of note, aside from Von and Rasul, who were playing at an adequate/average level. They added: Joey Bosa, Landon Jackson, TJ Sanders, Max Hairston & (essentially) Cole Bishop, as guys factoring heavy into the defense for ‘25, along with Hoecht & Ogbujobi come Week 7. They also brought in coaches who are far more aggressive than we saw last year, along with a Kromer type hire on the DL in Ryan Nielsen. A guy with quite a bit of accreditation for DL play and developing stud D-Linemen. If this can’t be a Top 10 Defense that shows up in the Playoffs, then I’m not sure McDermott is ever capable of giving us a Defense that performs at a high level when it matters.

TRUE

Forgot about this band. These girls can ROCK. Great musicians too! Wish they'd tour in the US..

President Autopen

A bunch of leftists talking points your spewing forth. Chairman Mao would be so proud!

We don't hate liberals, we hope they get the help they need.

I am totally with you LOL... its like Neil Diamond writing about an underage Caroline Kennedy... then BOOM its an anthem... but to your point... who really cares... its all fun...

The ball went between his arms, why is this still a debate?! catch it 100 times out of 100. Is he still too skinny?

Ed Oliver is not the worst pick of Beane, but to me, pretty significant in the sense that he was not able to get a Bonafide elite player when there were such players in consideration (Simmons e.g.) in the same draft. The Bills have not, and probably will never going to be in the same position (#9 overall) at the draft table to draft an elite talent in Allen's tenure as Bills QB. In hindsight, Aaron Donald's success probably influenced Beane. Athletically, Oliver and Donald measured very closely, but I see that additional power and reach Donald had over Oliver played wonder to him along with superior technic. A HoF (maybe the best DT in NFL history) compared to a solid good player; the margin is that small. Donald does have a prototypical DT body. You need all the other things to make it work. Oliver has an even shorter arm (31+" compared to the average 33+"). I don't know I'd have banking on lightening struck twice by hoping Oliver became Donald light myself. Oliver did watch Donald's tape. I remember he marveled at Donald's hand usage, saying it is the best he has ever seen.

Give that man a CIGAR!

I don't disagree with his comment here. But isn't hatred of the political "enemy" the only thing that holds our Democratic AND Republican coalitions together now?

No Hayley Williams love?

Good question. My hunch is that there is probably something there. Emails back-and-forth between CBS and the Harris campaign about how the interview will be conducted. The best possible lighting, who the interviewer is, things she doesn't want to be asked about (Willie Brown, whatever). In other words, things that probably happen all the time with structured/planned "exclusive" interviews that nevertheless could be embarrassing. So yes, keeping that stuff under wraps would also give CBS a reason from wanting to avoid further litigation, even if it doesn't directly have anything to do with how the interview was edited.

Oops. Sorry. Thought it was a Sabres thread.

Some people need a scapegoat.

And get off the damn field on 3rd downs.

Oh, just relating an interesting coincidence from yesterday. Cycling through AM radio in the car, turn on WGR for the first time in three weeks. Mike Schopp talking about Lamar. 🙄 I turn radio off. 😑
