The league is doing this to send a shot across the bow of the Lions. Stay in line or we will keep you in line. Every game/every week I lose a tiny little bit of interest in this bull####. I am not exaggerating when I say that if the Bills won the super bowl I would not be as excited as I would of just 5-6 years ago. Not since the Patriots cheating winning streak have I felt more hopeless in honesty and integrity in the league. If the Bills won I would feel a little delegitimized with the poor officiating occuring. The NFL is turning into NASCAR with its fanbase but super awesome we have a naughty rabbit at halftime.

Yeah, I guess I fail to see how that doesn’t apply to the Chiefs, who drafted their QB exactly one season earlier and also paid him massively and were also in their peak “QB still with a super low cap hit” window, are curiously missing from your list of teams that were somehow hurt disproportionately from COVID cap contraction. Of course, they managed to just keep going to conference championships and win Super Bowls despite their own $40M swing, no? This timeline of where we had this COVID deficit gets pretty fuzzy too. We signed a massive FA in Von Miller after 2021. Sounds like kind of a crock to be frank.

They lucked out crazily on a prayer ball against a zero blitz in a game where the Bills were at their offensive nadir under Dorsey. This is absurd. The Bills lost the turnover battle 4-1. These are the numbers. Show me the "out-coached".

I think you miss the point. We couldn't have a couple of those big contracts because when the cap should have increased $20m it retracted $20m. That is a $40m swing at exactly the point the Bills should have been wanting to go all in. And then I wasn't saying it stopped the Bills kicking the can. It just meant when they kicked the can (and they did onna fair few deals) they were doing that just to get under the cap instead of to invest I am not saying Beane didn't have some bad contracts then, but the point is quite simple.... the cap contraction hurt the most the teams primed to go all in at the point it happened. That was the Bills, Ravens and Cardinals and possibly one or two others.

1. Won a Super Bowl already 2. Even when saddled with a hapless Russell Wilson and a crappy roster, out-manuevered and out-coached McDermott in 2023, leading the Broncos to a last second win over the Bills. 3. Has the Broncos winning and relevant again with a lesser roster and Bo frickin Nix at QB. No one can say he is coasting on talent in Denver. That team is clearly being coached up while they beat the likes of the Eagles. While the Bills and Josh Allen are winning in spite of McDermott too many times, and are now losing as they show up unprepared, undisciplined, and unmotivated.

Yes, Strong is on IR. Doesn't change the fact that he overperformed. Um, starting two and a half years in college and missing half a season in fact does bode well for future projection of injuries. When you have one injury that keeps you out of games in college over the course of three years, that's not a bad omen at all. Three or four spots over the years where things have kept you out a game or two at a time or even more? That would bode very poorly. If one injury that had him miss games shows to you that he has a penchant for being injured, that's good evidence that your perceptions are distorted on this particular issue at this time. Lots of guys have one or two injuries in college and then are healthy in the NFL. Frank Gore and Adrian Peterson are always my two favorite examples of this, but Gronk's college back thing is another. There are thousands more. I explained quite clearly the ridiculous parts. Not surprised you're not willing to address those specifically. To each his own indeed, there's another thing you wrote that I agree with. Just looking at the bell curve will tell you that if a guy's own thing is wild pessimism, he will still be correct a certain percentage of the time. And in fact, I agreed with a number of things you said.

FU

Sounds better than McDermott.

... 16 years ago, with prime Drew Brees, in a less-competitive NFC, when his team was running an illicit bounty program where they were deliberately trying to injure opposing offenses with his knowing consent, leading to his suspension.

Let me think for a second.... Oh yeah, winning a SUPER BOWL!!!!!

The soft on crime people will be absolutely miserable over the next several years... Good times ahead... Strange how so many Americans could care less about the triple digit overdose deaths we experience year after year... They support endless foreign wars... But the deaths of our youth go unavenged...

There was a recent interview that I saw where the question was something like “What is one thing you’ve learned from Hailee.” His answer was “that I’m more than a football player.” Josh was never a tape grinder in the first place. But this new elevated fame from a high profile relationship and MVP might diluted that focus, as you say.

What is the obsession with Sean Payton? What has he done to demonstrate being a superior coach? I swear some of y'all like a-holes strictly because they're a-holes, like it's somehow a character plus for you.

Will he look bad for not doing anything in the off-season or look worse if this season ends in a one-and-out in the playoffs ? I understand ego comes into the picture. But recovering from mistakes is a hallmark of good leadership

Well to be fair the Lions didn’t stay quiet after getting jobbed by the refs in a game against Taylor’s team. They have to pay.

I am keeping Sean McDermott and YOU get Rex Ryan and his brother. Have a nice day...

All I can say about these organized protests is that I 100% support them... I hope that every single moron, degenerate, dumbass, wanna be terrorist, drug addict, closet commie and garden variety POS comes out of the wood work to support these protests... Please please please come out and identify yourself while the new sheriff is in town... Your zoom calls have been recorded... Your social media posts collected... The cash flow tracked and traced... Please come out and incriminate yourselves... Show your true colors... Just remember... The NGOs financing this get cut off 11/2/2025 (thanks Schumer)... Enjoy your final days of stupidity... This will end badly for the vast majority of you... Never interrupt your enemy when they are in the act of self-destruction... Have a nice day...

Agreed we're kinda stuck with what we have on defense other than maybe a surprise move at safety. But we can make a move for speed at WR which would open things up for the entire offense.

They are not MY points! This is all a quote from an article in The Athletic — hence the quotation marks and the ellipses. Sheesh. As for Cook, check out what @HappyDays reported:

I would like to see them win a Super Bowl. I'd actually rather see them miss the playoffs than get in a win a Wild Card game, because then we would be able to draft better players. The goal is the cigar.

...well that changed quickly...

Agree. I hope that’s enough comment for Frankish.
