I hope he gets "stuck" in Pittsburgh! No offense to the Steelers, but if this were about money (and I know he wanted more guaranteed), he overplayed his hand because (as a previous poster said) Teams will be spending their FA dollars starting this weekend and he could be left out in the cold. Here's hoping!

If/when he's dealt - it'll be interesting to see what he brings the Steelers. If Bflo walked away from getting Brown and the Steeler's #20 pick for Bill's #9 and a Defensive Player; I wonder what someone else will have to pay. I believe the circus the Bills went thru will help drive DOWN the return the Steeler's reap - maybe a 2nd or 3rd rounder now.

The Pats have (well, had) a “Character Coach”
Never NEVER Give-up replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Hmmm, not hearing much out of Boston these days. With the Patriot Way taking on a whole new meaning, maybe Kraft did us all a favor by tamping-down the noise back east! -

What's going on at PSE?
Never NEVER Give-up replied to oldmanfan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
To speculate on the termination of the 3 recent departures is wrong and unfair to the 3 individuals who need to now go out and try and make a living. When most of us lose a job, it happens in relative anonymity. These folks - not so much. Any hint of scandal or constant rumor-mongering and it could permanently damage their reputation and make it next to impossible to make a living in their chosen field. Who knows why these 3 are gone. It could be the tried & true "We're going in a different direction." Or perhaps there was cause. Reporters who dig into this may let us all know sooner or later. What we do know is that Kim is trying to establish a code of conduct at PSE. Brandon violated it and was gone. The 2 Xmas party-ers also violated it. These 3, who knows? PSE could do them a favor with an over-the-top explanation to erase any gossip about impropriety - but they won't issue that if there were any. Maybe that's whay we haven't heard more thus far . . . . More to come, I'm sure. . . . . -
Report: Bills interested in UFA TE Jesse James
Never NEVER Give-up replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Thanks for posting the video - I like what I see - big guy, good hands, makes contested catches, I disagree w/previous poster, I think he has decent athleticism - rumblin', stumblin' guy like Gronk. Reliable, gets open. (Don't misinterpret, he is not Gronk!) -
What I noticed from the shared Edmonton high-lights: > Williams was not the receiver getting the running starts. > Williams does a nice job of high-pointing his catches. > Many of the balls thrown were off-target and he adjusted very nicely to the ball. This is a key attribute in my mind. > Decent speed, not a burner. > Good RAC, not afraid of traffic or contact. > Repeating myself - I really liked the way he adjusted to the ball - bad throws, tipped ball, switching from one side (where he expected the ball) to his other side so he could catch it.

Barnwell has Bills at 6 wins in 2019
Never NEVER Give-up replied to BillsfaninSB's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
He's got nothing better to do than bait Bills Mafia! It's waaaaay to early for this. Let's reset after FA & the Draft, then the prognosticating can begin. -
Who would you like as WR Coach
Never NEVER Give-up replied to BBills88's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I like the idea of a guy who has a track record of turning lemons into lemonade. Someone who has molded and improved a receiving corps. -
I really don't care, but I'd like to be an underdog in each game and destroy the favorite in each game. OK - I have to admit, I'd love to beat Brady's Patriots in my favorite-crushing dream scenario. And to have it all universally considered as the undeniable greatest SB run in league history. (That way whenever NFL Network does the Top Ten Shows - we'll always be at #1.)

McBeane Confidence Update
Never NEVER Give-up replied to The Real Buffalo Joe's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Because we know who you are! Seriously - are you signed-in? -
Hard to gauge NT's. I always thought he was stout and the very best run plugger in the league. That being said, however, his stats seem to support those who say he was very good, but not necessarily HOF-worthy. Some Stats below: Yr Team W-L Rush Def Rank Games 1991 SF 10-6 5 16 1992 SF 14-2 4 16 1993 SF 10-6 16 12 1994 Denver 7-9 17 15 1995 Bflo 10-6 11 16 1996 Bflo 10-6 14 16 1997 Bflo 6-10 15 16 1998 Bflo 10-6 5 16 1999 Bflo 11-5 4 16 2000 Bflo 8-8 6 16 2001 Bears 13-3 2 16 2002 Bears 4-12 26 2 2003 Pats 14-2 4 10 2004 Raiders 5-11 22 16 2005 Raiders 4-12 25 16 2006 Browns 4-12 29 16 2007 Browns 10-6 27 1

Team Identity when they move
Never NEVER Give-up replied to The Real Buffalo Joe's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
In my worthless opinion, I think the Colts name belongs to Baltimore, Browns to Cleveland, Rams to LA (Cleveland was before my time - LOL), Cardinals to St. Louis (if they ever get another team) and Oilers belong to Houston. Raiders should adopt a new name if/when they go to Vegas. Raiders belong to Oakland. Expansion/relocating franchises should get fresh starts with new names. If/when a former NFL city gets a new team, it should be able to resume with the historical nickname of their former team. The Ravens s/b the Colts and the Indy franchise should be the Shuckers, Hoosiers or something else. Oh yeah - I so agree with you on the Jazz. It was a great and fitting name for the New Orleans franchise. When the Pelicans re-entered the league, they should have had the option to "buy" or "claim" their Jazz name. On the plus side for Utah - they could have taken advantage of all the marketing gimmicks associated with adopting a new name and identity. -
Las Vegas Raiders: Mike Mayock hired as GM
Never NEVER Give-up replied to MAJBobby's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
No - but he did analyze tons of draftees and was most often wrong. Also, the Raiders weren't the 1st to hire a GM from the boobtube - the Lions hired Matt Millen . . . hmmmm, how did that work out????? -
Probowl selections - No Bills Selected
Never NEVER Give-up replied to One Buffalo's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Yep. Let that sink in . . . Respect and accolades come with winning. Hopefully we turn the corner this year and the winning starts next year. -
Why is the punter the holder?
Never NEVER Give-up replied to NakedSquid's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Kicking Teams / specialists practice together most often, so if the punter is capable - he does the holding. That said, for fakes it would be best if a QB held or someone who could throw and run . . . Logan Thomas? Micah Hyde? Interesting question. -
OMG!! Who will they get against Detroit and Miami!?!?!?!?! Who's left? Spielman is more Lion than Bill - so it won't be him. Maybe Jordan Phillips can lead the charge against the fish!! Bill Munson can lead the charge against the Lions! Granted, it's not the player that played for the Lions, but his namesake that worked in the Bills' offices. Close enough? We're obviously scraping the bottom of the barrel now . . . .

Is Josh Allen faster than Tyrod Taylor???
Never NEVER Give-up replied to Mac14's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Absolutely! Josh is a much greater throwing threat than Tyrod, hence the line isn't as crowded and he has more space to work with. Tyrod was able to excel in close quarters with his shiftiness. Josh is a more complete player as Tyrod isn't near the thrower Josh is. -
Would you take Marcell Dareus back?
Never NEVER Give-up replied to Protocal69's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
No. I loved the Dareus pick when it occurred and waited and waited for it to pay off - it did, but only about 25% of the time. It wouldn't be worth it - just look at his performance with the talent around him in Jacksonville. Dareus should be dominant - he's not. Kyle Williams is better and Jordan Phillips would be a better fit here.
