  1. This was a stinker - no doubt. The key will be how they respond. However, two things to point out:(1) The Butler Interception & long return - he was down by contact - his knee hit the ground. A simple rewind and slow-motion replay on my TV showed this. Why the booth officials missed it I do not know.(2) The late Titan TD - Tannehill was clearly over the line of scrimmage. Prior to the snap, CBS' blue line of scrimmage showed the line precisely on the tip of the on-field arrow next to the "10" yard line or around the 7 3/4 yard line. Therefore, knowing this, when replays ran, you can clearly see he threw from between the 6 1/2 - 7 yard line. The late TD end-up being inconsequential - but I do not understand how they missed it on review - what if it allowed the Titans to pull ahead? The call was outrageous. It looks like the booth officials mailed it in when the Bills folded their tents.The interception return however, had a huge impact on the game and seemed to take the life out of the Bills. The game was over after that moment.I hate to say it but the Bills were over-confident for this one and got what they deserved in the end.
  2. Of course . . . . If any guy on this team is pre-ordained to catch the virus . . . it's EJ Gaines.
  3. I distinctly remember Nix saying he didn't like Russell Wilson's size. He couldn't get past that - he thought he was too small and his hands were too.
  4. Still one of the funniest things I have ever seen on the football field!!
  5. He was very good and an even more likeable, stand-up guy. I'd love to say yes, but I cannot. Part of the issue is he was an OG; there are only 15 in the HOF; it may be the most under-appreciated position in football - making it that much more difficult to gain HOF-worthy recognition. If placed among the following HOF'ers, ignoring the oldies who I never saw play, he comes up short. Lou Creekmur (T/G) Joe DeLamielleure Forrest Gregg Russ Grimm John Hannah Gene Hickerson Stan Joens (T/G & DT) Larry Little Tom Mack Bruce Matthews Randall McDaniel Mike Munchak Jim Parker (G/T) Billy Shaw Gene Upshaw
  6. A few thoughts . . . He's from Texas, everyone has a gun and feels entitled to it. Many are not registered. People in TX have guns like office workers have staplers. Video shows he was 100% compliant. Had a beer with him. OMG way too many people drink & drive, his crime was getting caught. Don't get me wrong, my point is the vast majority of those who drink/drive with regularity NEVER get caught (and if you asked them, they'd say they cannot believe they have not been caught). As bad as this is, at least he didn't exacerbate the situation with poor behavior. He'll probably get 4 games for 1st offense, but looks like he'll pay a larger price if there's any clause in his contract re: behavior. Looks like he was ATV'ing, who knows where, could have needed gun depending on where he was (wild game in that area could have been a hazzard).
  7. How can we listen? Go to the NBC or Twitter links and there is no way to play the recording nor inkling how to find it. Please elaborate. Found it. Go to NBC, then PFT (PM)
  8. Open a You Tube account and subscribe to Andy Provin - tons of Bills videos, I just watched the Bills-Jets MNF game from 1990. We were coming off a down week #@ loss to the Fish - they killed us. This was a rebound game. . . Enjoy!!
  9. I thanked his family on IG and reminded him I still hate the Pats!!
  10. ?? I've fallen and I can't get up!!
  11. I was surprised when I heard this - I talked to Brandon Bean at the Combine and he said Yeah This is the Year, They're gonna go for it, getting to the playoffs is not good enough . . . https://www.buffalobills.com/video/around-the-nfl-why-the-buffalo-bills-are-a-team-to-watch-in-2020-offseason
  12. That's it?!?!?! The Chargers, Ravens, Fish & Eagles have the only recommendations? How about clarify the rules around fielding kick-offs. The more I thought about it, the more I think the Bills were screwed out of a TD against Houston in the playoff game.
  13. Inclined to think "Over" Need to consider what Beane can add thru the Draft and FA. Also need to consider what we could lose: DT's Lotulelei & Phillips, DE's Lorax & Shaq (is Trent's contract up?), DB Johnson, Gore . . . defense could be weaker. I can see why the books say 8.5 with the tougher schedule and the possibility the defense gets weaker. The wild card is Beane and what he can do to add to the roster and what the 1st & 2nd year players do to add to the team in their 2nd & 3rd years respectively.
  14. . . . maybe they thought it wasn't a legitimate win? LOL
  15. Well . . . if anyone was wondering if Jerry has grown since The News let him go . . . . Or . . . if you're wondering why The News let him go . . .
  16. Ryan Clark recently said it is harder for good players to get recognized (pro bowl nods) on losing or non-winning teams. Tre-Day has broken that glass ceiling and if the Bills keep their winning ways, all thos accolades will come. Just Win baby!! (Thanks Al Davis)
  17. The reason Aaron Rodgers has so many memorable hail mary TD's is because he ATTEMPTS them. No reason not to call time out with 1-3 secs left and try and heave one!
  18. They look like they're wearing wool sweaters!
  19. Unfortunately there is no fact checker - all we have is opinion and conjecture based upon half-truths and innuendo.
  20. Thanks to all who participated in the poll. Thanks to most who posted thoughtful replies on either side. I always wonder why some post a whine about why someone posted something instead of hitting the back button and simply making no comment. If you have something to offer, please do. If all you want to do is rag on a poster to show you can bully and degrade someone else's thoughts - you are a waste of bytes. (Several people responded 2-4 times saying similar things: another Kap post, get this outta here, why are you posting this, etc. Why? Just to spout your superiority only to post self-defeating, thoughtless syllables that reflect poorly on you.) I apologize for not knowing Kap sued/settled with the NFL when I did my poll. I always thought he was an interesting talent (better than the majority of NFL 2nd stringers) and if the NFL is such a results-oriented league, then why hadn't anyone signed him? Hence the poll.
