  1. Anyone know if Josh Allen's house is at risk at all?
  2. I live in raleigh, we get the panthers preseason games. Obviously it's against players not in the nfl, totally get that... the accuracy and the ball placement on those short throws is insane for a player with Josh Allen's physical toolkit (not sure on his arm strength compared to Allen). Plus how he seemingly has a plan when things go off script and he's moving to set stuff up and not just bailing...
  3. Joe Milton had looked that good all preseason and not just in preseason games, reports out of training camp were that he was absolutely crushing it all camp
  4. Totally get that, but his poise and ability to move in the pocket to buy time...he's gonna be really really good I think and they drafted him in the freaking 6th round...hopefully they trade him the the giants for their second this year...I wouldn't be super shocked if a new coach comes in though and names Milton the starter...I don't think he's just better than Maye, I think Milton could be elite (hopefully someone who actually knows football can weigh in on this, but like I said, I based this off watching Milton in the preseason and the bills game)...also, the bills weren't playing the 75th player on the preseason roster...he played against mostly legit nfl role players...granted the bills defense isn't the best version, but these are players that have been rostered on nfl rosters all season largely.
  5. I think there is a real and legit chance that Milton is better than Maye and I thought that after watching Milton in the preseason...like yeah them losing the first overall pick is a massive loss in value... but Milton just raised his trade value significantly with that performance and it might honestly potentially even out (though I'm guessing Milton already had a significantly high trade value following his preseason performances)
  6. Are you using shinyR for the interface? Also, really freaking cool!!
  7. I don't think those Pats teams were lucky...*
  8. What are the rules for having to declare something like this on the injury report? Any draft picks at risk?
  9. Based on the reactions after the Rams game... I'm gonna have to say for many, all signs point to not really It's so crazy how the rams game and the lions game was basically the bills being on both sides of the exact same coin/game script and it's so encouraging seeing how the team intentionally made adjustments to be that team in control against the lions by being much more aggressive early...not really hearing too many of the same people saying it was an example of self scouting and growth
  10. High ankle sprains are a very different animal...I know he played on one last year iirc, but if they're more than very mild, playing on one can risk long term damage as I understand it...might not he his choice or just a pain tolerance situation.
  11. My dad got diagnosed at basically the same exact age with I think the same cancer what I think would have been him being diagnosed 20 years ago this past August. Felt fine until he got jaundiced and felt really tired...he got tested and for a second they thought it was just a clogged bile duct, but then they did the actual conclusive test and it very much wasn't. He got chemo and was in a clinical trial for some immuno therapy...didn't get the surgery (it wouldn't have helped)...they had given him months, but with the immunotherapy he made it over a year and half...but yeah, basically same age of diagnosis and bile duct cancer as well. Bigger reason I'm sharing is that immunotherapy has come incredibly far since then...I often think of what would have happened if it was now instead of then...also think a lot about the fact I'm 40 now, and in seven years I'll be the same age when he got diagnosed
  12. Instead you could never quite finish
  13. Totally dead and I would imagine you have to do an onside, but I'm not super familiar with the rule. https://www.sportingnews.com/us/nfl/news/nfl-new-kickoff-rules-onside-kicks-touchbacks-returns-2024/c0f89e14b7ea2e3f4c4eddb0
  14. You can only do an onside kick while down and I believe in the 4th quarter now (since the new kickoff rules). Agree with everything else
  15. Bile duct cancer will do that as well... Got my dad before he turned 50
  16. Cancer in that area can very much cause that as well...
  17. I played varsity lacrosse in high school...I now live in the raleigh area and go to Duke and UNC lax games, which I saw some crazy high ranked matchups, the quality of lax within a bit over half an hour from me is insane. Anyway, the speed and intensity of D1 lacrosse...it's really basically a different sport, it's insane
  18. I want a Superb Owl so freaking bad now!!!
  19. He's got a bunch of injury guaranteed money, so yeah I mean it was his call, but they'd be silly to risk an injury so just good gm'ing Edit: to clarify the good gm part I am referring to is the benching to avoid an injury guarantee, not the deal they signed him to. but.... didn't they also build in an out into that contract or am I remembering things wrong? Are we sure this isn't kinda part of the plan in a way? Have Jones as a bridge to get a new qb after the rest of the team got built up a bit first...if they're not fired, it could give a bit of a clue.
  20. Anyone know if he has offset language in his contract?
  21. Oh I want them to get this done so bad! No way he clears waivers...bring him in on the practice squad as the 4th qb
  22. I honestly didn't even celebrate the way I normally would (jumping up and down and in 360s) while watching that run, at least not in the moment...just fist pump when he got the first, stood up when I realized he had a chance to score, big fist pump, a huge sigh of relief and then grabbed my 7 year old while he was flipping out and gave him a big hug. I think mostly I was waiting to make sure he wasn't hurt before celebrating, but what a freaking play!
  23. Lol, that's where we disagree...0-4 doesn't necessarily mean we need major change at all...it depends on how they lost and all that...also, what was Tampa Bay's record after 12 games the year the won their last super bowl? What I'm really saying is that I saw somewhere the bills were -5000 to win the afc east...I feel like there is a better chance than that that the bills lose their next four and the dolphins win their next five and they are tied in the loss column than the odds of -5000...there might be some value to hedge there potentially...I don't gamble on sports though, just pointing out a potential value bet to toss a few bucks on something that is unlikely, but feels more likely than the odds
  24. Not at all what I'm saying... what I'm saying is there is a possibility that they lose all of these next four games and the result is not that they are not a competative team that can't go far in the playoffs or that they should blow it all up.
