Who else was at that game that broke the streak on September 7th of 1980?

Kid should go to Cuse!

or, better yet, the Chargers in OUR house!

Likely take an IOL early ish this year in the draft.

Props to you for playing the long game!

Unless Kromer feels it’s time for SVPG, Anderson and/or Grable on the inside, I think they’ll extend all 3 on the interior (Torrence will be to get ahead of it), along with Bosa (should he stay healthy). Wont be much money for anything else, but I’d be ok with that as our offseason. Draft a WR early and then fill out the Defense with the rest of the Draft and some smaller contract FA’s.

Just don’t sit in the sun!

Bills -30 The McDaniels-22

I hear ya, @Augie…it has taken some of the luster off for me as well. But some (I’d say most) of these kids are still great kids. The Heels’ Caleb Wilson, for example, who will certainly only be there one year, is a really thoughtful kid who respects UNC’s history and really wants to be there. He’ll be fun to watch.

He’ll stick on the roster, because purging him would be an admission of a colossal screw up by Beane ( and Allen, because it was widely reported that Keon was the guy Allen wanted), won’t get a second contract, will go to a second team where he will fade quickly into obscurity. Glad he bought all the puffy yellow coats he wanted before the NFL checks are gone.

For the record, I’m going to continue to vote for whichever side rebukes this.. Ever since Biden purposefully flooded the country with illegal immigrants, and we now see elections decided by foreign born voters & Somali clan beefs, it’s pretty much a defining issue for me.

My daughter lives there. She and my granddaughter are going to the game. 1st ever Bills game for Grandi!

They aren’t going up. As a buyer, wait until the last possible moment. If you want to sell, get them out EARLY. It’s 100% foil proof.

Maybe, but I think it's at least as likely that at this point, this is just who he is. He can improve his technique understanding of his responsibilities in this offense, but he does not have the huge advantage in athleticism that Eric Moulds had. That's easier to overcome at some positions than others, but WR isn't one of them.

I mean, Ed’s played 2.5 games and Hoecht played 1.5, and they were only on the field together in the Carolina game, so they’ve basically generated their pressure on the season without them anyway… You have to wonder if, aside from Hairston, would McDermott have shuffled up his secondary without the injuries to Rapp and Johnson, and does he stick with what worked last week when Johnson is healthy.

I saw a bit of that, and I actually enjoyed it. I used to take our boys to Chapel Hill for hoops camp each summer and became attached to the school and the town. I was surprised to enjoy it, but then I had no expectation of knowing the players from either team. Sadly, I don’t think I could name a single player from my team (Xavier). I don’t begrudge the players getting paid or having mobility, but the resulting product is not something I really care for. Gone are the days of being proud that you graduated all your players whose eligibility expired. Now you just want to know who’s on the team, and I’m mildly curious if the SG makes more than the PF. It’s like a new pickup game at the YMCA with the best players going to the highest bidders. It doesn’t bother me in college football, so maybe college basketball in general will still appeal to me. I did enjoy the UNC game. But I will no longer send my school any money if that’s how it’s being used. If we all think alike and that means the program dies, oh well….. 🤷‍♂️ EDIT: I stopped making an annual trip to Cincinnati to see Xavier play when Covid hit, and the way things have changed since then I’ll only catch a game if I happen to be in town already, which is fairly unlikely. .

Another trip to NC for the Sabres that I get to see them get totally out classed again. Will they score at least one goal?

It has often occurred to me that Coleman's only way to success in the NFL would be to bulk up and convert to a TE. I don't think he has the fortitude to try and make this change. So, he will be out of the league in three years.

I was just reviewing the Bills-Fins head to head record this morning. Beyond the 4-23-1 record we went through the entire 70's with zero wins, 0-20. Thanks to Jim Kelly and Josh Allen we are close to tipping that scale, something we could never imagine happening way back when. Go Bills

If you’re wrong, it’s a permaban for you!

Bills 39-38.

Or Anquan Boldin. Although both he and Ward were considerably shorter, both were a lot less physical than Coleman. As others have said, he's big but plays small. Doesn't box out or sky for the jump ball consistently, hands not great, slow. Sure doesn't bring much for someone who gets more snaps than any other skill player. Can he develop? It's looking more dubious as time goes on. I think the best hope is the problems are in his head. Compare his FSU tape to his NFL tape; it's like two different players. (I've only seen his college highlights, though.) For example, on several comeback routes on the sideline, Allen throws a perfect ball with perfect timing to his outside shoulder, where only he can get the ball. Diggs thrived on those. Impossible to defend, even with such a slow receiver. Yet Coleman allowed the DB to make a play. That seems fixable. I mean, the guy is big. Allen could also throw way over his head sometimes, which I haven't seen. Coleman seems to love those climb the ladder balls. So maybe there's hope.

I'm watching Chris Simms argue that the majority of the pressures and hits and sacks were a result of the coverage. Bishop, Hairston, Hancock, and Walker are playing well. Will Jackson and Sanders follow suit? Max Hairston received s grade of 90.1 from PFF. That's very encouraging. (Rousseau and Kincaid also had 90+ grades) Bishop had 4 PBU's. I expect this trend to continue.

LOL, that would be me. The “trap game” talk always cracks me up. It’s relevant in high school and college sports…not so much the pros. It’s just one of my pet peeves in broadcasting and the way people talk about games. Fans get caught up in overlooking opponents or betting with their hearts. Professional players don’t. NFL players and coaches understand that the margin between winning, losing, or getting your asses blown out is razor thin. If they don’t give it their all they are toast.
