Hockey is the one sport you can have a complete overhaul of the front office and coaching staff, and not set the franchise back a few years, but possibly excel. It’s been done in the NFL, but NHL teams are more likely to do better after an overhaul. It can’t be about money. It has to be stubbornness, or worse incredibly inept ownership. Sabres were purchased for 189 million and now are worth a staggering 1.42 billion. Which so happens to be just a smidge above what he paid for the Bills! For comparison, the average NHL team is now worth 2.1 Billion. The Bills are worth 6 billion. That means he’s made close to 6 BILLION dollars on both franchises. He has a net worth of 9 billion, and still has the ability to pull money from his oil/natural gas company so money isn’t an issue. Just looking at the teams finances, the Sabres operating expenses are 98 million, with revenues at 176 million. Dude has plenty of money to pay multiple fired head coaches and GM’s to pound salt and maybe get this franchise headed in the right direction. Problem is…does anyone trust him to choose the right tandem? To choose a real hockey guy to make those decisions? Is Jarmo the guy? Interesting that he was brought on in May this year and we are now hearing whispers of a change. Maybe he’s behind that?

I know some (*^*&%^$^#on this board probably laughed, but I cried the day Tom Petty died. He knew American music

No doubt about it, I thought this song sucked when it came out- and I think it still sucks today, bit I'll be damned if some of the sentiments don't need to be imparted to some of our 'little chipmunks':

The frustrating thing about the WR room is that many of us saw this coming and wanted them to draft a WR high in the draft, and then another one mid-round. I think that Beane was overly optimistic that Coleman would be a force for them, thar Samuel could improve, and that Palmer would give them something they were lacking. Sadly none of these three scenarios panned out. The biggest problem on this roster is WR and they are holding back the offense led by an elite QB

I can’t see us sitting starters against the Eagles no matter what. Either the division is in play (if we beat the Pats and Browns), Or seeding is in play. As the five seed we still have a chance of hosting a playoff game. I can easily see the Ravens or Chiefs getting the 7 seed and going on a run of upsets. Incidentally, never take a win for granted—even over the Jets—by conceding the Eagles game. That’s the ultimate bulletin board material.

In the end, Josh Allen still needs to run for the team's any hope right now. Tell me any great QB who knows only that is the best way to keep a drive alive- It's not like the guy can't throw a ball. I still like our chaces this year- but god dammit - get the guy a very ***** excellent receiver next year and ONE goddamn Linebacker

I was quoting the poster- have your beef with your fellow Pats******* fan. what can't be disputed is the EPPF stat Patriots fans deserve.

They are practicing punching the ball out on him. Cook better be ready to hang on to that ball

I hear you. However, the Bills offense in that game really struggled. I think the coaching staff really messed up with their protection schemes. With that said, the Bills still had a great chance to win that game. Truthfully, I think the Bills would go down to Houston and take care of business.

Allen’s pass to Kincaid in the playoffs last year was better.🤫

The issue if talking about win or lose, eagles game won’t matter. They will need to beat the jets.

8 pts is not a 2 score game.

I'll be the first to say I don't want to say Philip Rivers is going to will them to a Super bowl... YET... He will be able to get them a win to get them into the playoffs and play better than most will realize from a 44-year-old man who hasn't played in like five years As a student of the game I go back to listening to Tom Brady who I despise as a Bills fan but I respect The mantra and the Michigan quarterback room for decades... Mental is to the physical as four is to one Just break that down and think about it... Even as the body breaks down as a quarterback your mental game will will you further than any physical ability if you have that mental ability... Bodies have deteriorated around great quarterbacks and they still get it done.. great do Somebody like Cam Newton wants his body deteriorated yes he lost his game cuz it was all built on that... I believe Josh has more than just the physical side And Philip Rivers has that in spades As long as he's physically able to take a hit.. and they will protect him... And I'm sure defenders don't want to kill him either He has the quick release and the mental processing to always find the check down... They're going to run Jonathan Taylor and he's going to hit check Downs all day and then rip a seam route I'm excited to watch Philip

Annnnd it’s gone:

LOL...first thing I thought of. Of course the Chargers pry did it on purpose so they could see what Herbert was worth.

You really don't need cutting edge tech. I've seen dr's use their phones with an ultrasound attachment to find pleural effusions, visualize the heart, etc... We don't at bedside all the time. They locate a pocket of fluid big enough to safely drain, mark the spot, insert a needle with catheter until fluid begins to drain, pull the needle leaving the cath and wait until it's done draining. Pull the cath and all done. The margin for error is small though. Go to far and you cause a pneumo

Who’s the goof who gave this post a red X?

Can’t remember where I saw this but apparently the Steelers facility is attached to a very cutting edge medical imaging center where they could easily use an ultrasound when they do injections like that and I guess they just don’t? I don’t know that it’s a tyrod Taylor type thing though

I think he’s saying if the pats lost earlier in the day to the jets falling to 11-5 we would just need to beat the jets week 18 and there’s no way the pats could jump us making the eagles game somewhat meaningless. The jets game is a must win even if we were to win the eagles game because we blow the division tiebreaker if we lose that one

Ya, those headaches are typically a result of CSF leaking from the injection site. If it persists, they have to go back in and fix the leak

It’s an interesting hypothetical but if NE drops three in a row i think it’s pretty likely we’re playing for the 1 seed in week 17 and 18. Also if we’re at 12-4 after beating the eagles and pats are 11-5 there’s still the small possibility both teams lose week 18 making that eagles win meaningful. In this reality the jets would’ve just beat the pats a few weeks before so they’re probably playing decent football 😂. Aah thinkin about this more I guess we’d have the division tiebreaker neutralized if we lost one division game and pats lost 3 more anyway makin the eagles game meaningless again haha still think the 1 seed philosophy will hold but that intentional loss argument as far as the division goes seems to check out

I experienced a sort of similar procedure decades ago, before MRI’s, that required precision and risks. Had to get myelogram injections in the ‘80’s, a spinal tap to inject dye into the spinal fluid. I had 3 done, one at a time, minimal pain med/anesthetic is given. Basically you bite the bullet as the needle is inserted in and hope no nerve gets knicked, which mine weren’t, but they do get touched, mine did. It shoots pain bolts down your legs and causes hard back spasms but you cannot move from them, if you do the dye can leak and cause unbearable headaches, though some sort of headache is typical as most do move a little, and laying flat for 24hrs. afterwards is common to relieve it. I got through it well and only had to lay flat for about 4hrs afterwards as I developed no headache at all.

Pats possibly without their stud DT and 2 starting LBers. Not to mention the weather might be a wintry mix. Just pound the football.

I understand that. But if you kick the 1 you don't worry about having to go for 2 pt conversion. Take it to OT worst case
