  1. Ok, I feel like I need to be the A-hole and ask the dumb question: what's the end game? For Hamas, it appears to be complete control on the populace with the ouster of moderates and hope that Israel outrages enough neighbors that the fighting gets globalized. For Israel? You've spent 15 years killing Palestinians at a rate of 20 to 1. You've blockaded them, starved their economy, crippled their industry. They've lost 50% of their GDP. And what you've gotten out of it is people evicted from their homes, smuggling tunnels now providing basic food, water and medicine that have become pipelines for arms, no economic future and very little to lose. Do you want to ethnically cleanse 2 million people? Do you want to permanently hold a US style occupation surrounded by people who hate your guts and neighbors all to pleased to help them? How does this end well for Israel without giving a little, which is opposite of what people want now?
  2. I'm taking back the nice things I said about Dorsey last week
  3. Von certainly believed he was ready week 1. I like the idea of slowly working him back now
  4. Not watching pregame, but come on, the guy is an ex-Jags back. He's obviously biased
  5. I'm warming to it. Just got back from getting breakfast sandwiches Benford is out? I didn't think he was hurt that badly
  6. I put money on the Bills getting six or more sacks. I think there's a decent chance they hit that
  7. Living outside of the city, can confirm. Nearly every wing place by me starts with "hot" at Franks level, and then adds sugar if they go spicier. There's a lot of places that serve wings limp and soggy upon arrival and the only solution they have come up with is to bread their wings. I have been to a place with rave local reviews that was effectively wings breaded and seasoned like southern fried chicken, out into a bowl and a glug of sauce poured over top before serving.
  8. I'm telling you, Molotov cocktails work. Any time I had a problem, and I threw a Molotov cocktail, boom! Right away, I had a different problem.
  9. Yep. You don't have to do it a lot, you just need to make it an alternative defenses have to consider worth stopping. Right now Cook, Allen, Murray and Harris are averaging 4.2 yards a carry or better.
  10. I think people get hung up on semantics. You don't need to be run first, you have to run it just enough that defenses have to account for the possibility.
  11. It's the most efficient play in football so long as you establish a run game. Now that we have committed to doing it under center Josh is reaping the rewards
  12. Even if not a upgrade it's crazy that we are getting equal (if not better) production from a third round pick compared to a guy compared to Kuechley, taken 16th overall in his year and given $50 million guaranteed. The Bears just threw crazy money at him. Exactly. I was in the "can we extend at a reasonable rate" camp before the Bears backed up a Brinks truck. So far that money to Ed Oliver is looking like a far better investment
  13. And Von starts? Hey I can dream It would certainly take the sting out of Groot potentially missing
  14. Have you considered that money is an imaginary concept? Also that the agreed budget from the August negotiation leveled spending and McCarthy backed out due to the crazies who want to burn it all down
  15. I think NC is being really hard on himself, referring to himself as an idiot. I mean, that seems to be accurate... That Kevin McCarthy is an untrustworthy liar is nothing new. Unfortunately, that does seem quite representative of his caucus
  16. I mean, it's pretty self aware that you know you're an idiot . But seriously, I think there is a decent chance McCarthy will be back without the insane vacate requirements. Mostly because everyone on the GOP realizes that they have no one more competent in the House. Even the most competent politician will have trouble keeping a coalition together of people scared for their seats and needing to show *something* and the Crazy Caucus of "Jewish Space Laser" Green and Matt "I date high schoolers" Gaetz
  17. 8. We are supposed to alternate between 8 and 9 with the 17 game schedule. We had 9 away games scheduled last year, but the Bengals was a wash.
  18. It's less "oh no what an impossible hurdle" and more griping about how what was supposed to be an advantage for us turned neutral at best. The Bills play the AFC division winners. They play the Chiefs on the road (for the 5th straight time, 7 out of 8). They play the Bengals on the road. What *should* be our one home game vs a conference rival is instead effectively a road game. It's not the end of the world, but I'm salty
  19. I am still salty that we lost a home game and instead have to play a division winner in a different country, where they are the home away from home team, and who already have a week to prepare from the jet lag
  20. It was on one of his Twitter breakdowns. Bernard shot the backdoor while Milano made the stop. It's not a stat line play but it sealed a hole on a run
  21. Quieter game on the box score but Bernard popped in some Baldy Breakdown and that fumble recovery was huge. It's only four games in but Bernard is looking like a steal. I know it's his second year but it feels like we got another draft pick hit.
  22. Guys, I think we need to consider the possibility that White has played his last down with us. Achilles are hard to rehab. I will not be shocked if White is a trade candidate EDIT: I like Tre and I don't want to see him gone, but that's a hard injury to come back from. People rarely get back to 100%
  23. I mean the Bills aren't much better than the Phins right now. I am sure the Phins can get some short term relief if they offer Tua a big deal and cut down the 2024 hit. But yeah, the Ramsay contract is a millstone next for a 30 year old CB coming off of injury. Chubb's discount is set to run out next year. Armstead is uncuttable. They have some tough contracts. I'd still rather be them than the Jets in 2025
