1. I think a team can expect to not be missing their starting (and best) cornerback and player in the secondary AND their starting safety. Those are huge losses in a any defense, especially one clearly undermanned all year long, and now playing Mahomes and his three time Super Bowl champion team in their own home. Bizarre that someone would think the head coach and quarterback of a team in that position would not feel more pressure. Of course, they would. A duh, actually. 2. The Bills getting to the Championship Game again and not winning it would be disappointing, and of course a failure to many concerned. But it is not a massive failure, would likely only be to bashers and haters of McBeane, who try to turn almost every thread into a 'Fire the bum', thread. Hard for them to see the forest through the trees, as their vision is so distorted. 3. ...which is a nice segue into my response to your "They have never played good playoff defense." Yes, they lost to the Chief in that playoff game, of course, even with an excellent defense that year. The Chiefs got the better of almost every defense they played that year and scored over 30 points nine times that season, winning the Super Bowl to cap it all off. But like so much of the McBeane bashing, just hyperbole and throw away nonsense for anyone to say that Bills have never played good playoff defense--unless they only choose to watch Bills' losses. The Bills have definitely played good, some would say excellent, or even superb, playoff defense under this particular team. Just the weak before this game, they man handled the Patriots--the pats were never in the game. And then they crushed the Ravens in the playoffs to an even greater degree, holding them to just 3 points. And ditto for their win against the Steelers after the 2023 season, a 31-17 win. And last year's beat down of the Broncos, who, after their initial score early in the game, were shutout, 31-7. The word Never seems to mean something much different to you than to most people, and as defined in most dictionaries, I think. (I probably should have never said, as I did just a few posts ago, that I did not want this to turn into a 'Fire the coach!' (or GM) thread, as any attention keeps them going...)

Yeah! Damn AutoCorrect. I notice then AND the two BigBoxes stand alone on that chart. I wonder where they (Husky/Kobalt) source their parts from?

Just following PPP precedent 4th&schlong...

If it is, it is. Only Beane truly knows. It will be fine.

Good on him! Lol Ravens at Bills for Opener? I would like for us to come out hot and crush them.

All that will be addressed at the end of summer. Right now, Beane needs to get the 90 signed.

No sh it really? Who cares what he does he's irrelevant.

It’s 100% true. Just watch last year’s games. I don’t have game film in my pocket to share (wish I did) but spend an hour of any game just focusing on Hamlin. He’s clueless out there and absolute garbage in coverage but sure he’s a willing tackler. And yes Lewis is 2nd worst on the list but even he shows mild situational awareness. Bishop was a second round reach and made rookie mistakes but you can see that he knows how to play the position and he’s athletic enough to stay with guys when’s focused to not leave corners on an island. Do I love our safeties, no, I think that’s a huge weakness still but at least with crazy heat sealing missile Rapp I get a guy who understands how to play safety, even if he doesn’t care about his or any other players well-being. I’m hopeful that Hancock and Forest are the real deal but that’s a stretch because even if they outperform others in camp it’s not McDs MO to give newbies a starting gig over his guys

So what? Did they discontinue making the 'Young' team jersey nameplates? My point was he presumably has enough funds to purchase 6 PSLs and all that goes with it (tickets, parking, merch, concessions, etc.), but wears a dated, thread-worn team jersey. Geez, put out the extra C-note and don some decent attire for the publicity event. Or.. just duck into the Bills locker room and 'borrow' a jersey,

Leave Mickey and Minnie's affair out of this.

It sounds to me like you're saying greed is driving all sides of this equation. Hospitals selling out. Doctors selling out. With respect to the CEO of the hospital, what type of salary are you speaking of? With respect to the top dog neurosurgeon, what type of earnings are you speaking of for him/her? As an alternative, what you you suggest as a fixed income for both?

I never said they were crazy... I said they were ####### Goofey.

I agree. Except for the Manning's.

With the savings, he can buy a vise! 🙄🤨 Did you mean Hilti? 🤨

The problem with these newer manual reel mowers is they are cheaply made, and little care is placed in their manufacturing. Grass is ripped, whereas the manual reel mowers of the 50s actually sheared the grass. My father had conniptions because our mailman would toss the twine from mail bundles onto the grass, screwing up the sharpness of the reel. The air would be blue with curses when that happened. 🤬

Reid Ferguson is like the drummer in a band asking "Can the long snapper get some??" 😂

I heard Reid Furgeson is scheduled to be on CBS Mornings show on Wednesday.

The way things are going I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't end up pushing the schedule release to June or July in the future. Anything can happen between now and then with big moves, so the NFL can make it more interesting which means more $$$$. They moved it after the draft to garner more interest in it.

When people became dramatically more inconsiderate and don't give a crap that folks behind them might actually want to use the seat they paid for.

I worked at the stadium the 4 years they went to the Super Bowl. Everybody sat in their seats.

So instead of inserting a lit pipe bomb in our ass, we’re merely shooting our foot off with a Remington 12-gauge

They also make adapters for big names. The Chinese ones get a little more involved... But there are Chinese knockoffs. All use basically same inside batteries (forget the common model number). I use then to cross over DeWalt-Milwaukee-Craftsman(IIRC is Craftsman/Stanley/B&D)... B&D/Stanley is also DeWalt. Only Makita stands alone... From the date of this: Also... Great mods online, YouTube if you can secure a 3D printer... It's all coming outta China... CORRECTION: Hilton too...

The irony is Reid was there a long time and never won (with good teams and a top 10 QB). He left and they won twice. In his second stop, he won 3 times. Maybe that’s McDermott? Belichick didn’t win at his first stop either. Let’s just say, last season’s result, repeats itself over and over and over. How many more KC playoff losses 32-29 would you accept? For me, I would have already been done. If this happens 8 more times, good? 5? 1? 0? I guess this is where the divide is for some. The results are good. They aren’t good enough. I wouldn’t continue letting years of Josh Allen’s prime tick off without a title (or change). I think that the Ravens should be in the same boat. The difference is Harbaugh has won one and they haven’t ended each year the same way. What about the years that they had the number 1 defense? When should he be accountable? That’s what I am asking. If you don’t think it should be on the table, that’s fine. I’d ask, why? I think that you should win at least a Super Bowl with Josh Allen. The results vs. KC don’t give me much confidence that he can do it.

I like that Josh is filming the "I'm going to Disneyland" commercial now. It's happening!
