  1. The pinnacle of sports broadcasting.. Hyping up cornhole..
  2. No the most obvious one stated, is to let the other team go first. If they score a TD, then you know you need a TD and will go for it on 3rd and long or 4th and long. If you know they only scored a FG, then you have the option of going for a FG or a TD. Seems like it will always be easier coaching decisions to go second. But then again, I don't know and I don't coach.
  3. How's that grape Kool-aid taste? 🙂 Jerry Jones built his own stadium. So did Stan Kroenke. In those scenarios, I can accept the place and product belong to the owners. Contrast that to NYS and Erie County dumping 800M in only to be charged for the right to purchase season tickets. And outside of aesthetics and more modern bathrooms, how will a prospective season ticket holder know if his seats are better? Will they be better protected from the wind or not? Folks won't know that until the stadium sees a few seasons. I'll give you an example of what happened to someone I know who got suckered (aka PSL'ed) in Baltimore. He bought a ticket on the ten yard line, lower bowl. He even scooped up the aisle seat. As a prior season ticket holder, he was give a few weeks to decide. He sold me a ticket to a preseason Bills v Ravens a few years ago. With the aisle to his left and 90 yards of the field to his left, he had to angle his body to the left for most of the game. But that was not the worst of it. Because the aisle was there, a constant stream of fans would come down the aisle and block your POV. And some people would hang out for a play or two to watch or chat up friends. If they were my seats, I would have hated that. But he was now locked in.
  4. Yep.. The only person(s) this hurts is/are the loyal season tickets holders. The rest of us who catch a game or two, will buy single season games priced based on location and the record of the Bills at the time. Season ticket holders will be given a choice of comparable seats to what they current hold and given a defined window of time to either accept the new seats, choose new seats (that aren't being held for other ST holders), or pass on the opportunity. And the loyal season ticket holders will be held to legal extortion by the Bills and NFL.
  5. Can't wait to figure out the unintended consequences of this rule and which coaches figure out how to manipulate it for their advantage.
  6. The Permanent Sucker License (PSL) skinny 1. If you fail to buy season tickets EACH season, you must either sell you PSL or surrender it to the BIlls. The Bills can then resell surrendered PSLs. 2. My friend sold his Baltimore PSL for very little extra return after holding it for 10+ years 3. The closer you get to the field, the higher the PSL cost (of course) 4. They can be transferred in your estate, but see number 1 above
  7. McD is about as interesting as putting carrots in a salad..
  8. In this wacky price hike offseason, he'll probably get it.
  9. Thanks... Nothing and I mean nothing would surprise me this off season. The WRs are getting a king's ransom and a team like Carolina could pay it and Buffalo could get a draft pick haul. The obvious downside is Gabe Davis becomes WR1.. And cupboard is somewhat bare behind him. Unless they are making a play for Lockett or Metcalf.. Hard to imagine this team without Diggs. But nothing would say the NFL is a business more than trading Diggs...
  10. Amazed the Carolina offer isn't blowing up on here. I don't actively do twitter, but the @rastapasta_9 guy is saying on twitter than Carolina has offered a 2022 1st (6th overall) and a 2023 3rd for Diggs and 'Buffalo is considering offer with WR approval."... Don't see it on the main NFL page and have no idea if this guy is a credible source.. Makes for some intrigue for sure.
  11. Throwing footballs into the net targets that the QBs practice on. Point values for circle size and distance.
  12. Let Russ Cook takes on new meaning.
  13. Here's a wild thought. Did the Jets false flag Miami into spending too much? I was listening to Rich Eisen today talk about how the Jets might not have been ready for Hill. My take: But their very presence with their two high draft picks forced Miami to bid higher than they wanted. I found it curious that the Jets did not throw in a one when they had the luxury of doing so. I know, I know the silly draft pick equivalency chart says the Phins with their late pick and the Jets with their two 2s were "equivalent" value. To me, if the Jets were serious about getting him, they would have parlayed one of their ones. But the fact that they had two might have forced Miami to pay more in draft picks.
  14. I’m in the “it was a brilliant move by KC”. I believe Mahommes can ability-up those that play with him. KC can now shore up the defense with those picks at a better price point. If Kelce was the one to bolt, I think KC would have been diminished. They can and will replace Hill. Miami entered the conversation with this move. I think guys like Waddle, Wilson and Hill can make him a better QB. Mostert in the backfield was a big add too. Bills v Miami games are going to be much more competitive now. Should be fun.
  15. Impossible... For the first time in many off seasons we have officially entered the "who the hell knows" phase. Teams that got definitely better: Raiders, Browns, Broncos, Chargers, Bills, Dolphins Teams that got somewhat better: Bengals, Colts, Titans, Jaguars Teams that got somewhat worse: Patriots, Chiefs, Texans, Pittsburgh Teams that have no free agency pulse: Jets, Baltimore Now how it all shakes out, who the hell knows...
  16. Amazing how fast he cranks these out
  17. Sure on paper. Disagree. They had early 1s. If you wanted him, you could have got them by throwing in the one or two of the ones.
  18. Seems like the Jets were not really all in..
  19. Waddle was becoming a problem at the end of last season. Didn't he set the rookie receiving record for passes caught? Now add into Hill with Devante Parker, and Mike Gesecki and these guys will be a problem.
  20. One really crazy offseason. The NFL collective have lost their collective minds. Exhibit 1: 230M fully guaranteed contract Exhibit 2: 40M dead cap hit (largest ever) for a traded QB Exhibit 3: Paying a receiver QB money These changes are remaking contracting and contracts in the NFL.
  21. And somewhere in NYC, Nick Wright has just gone apoplectic 😀 Can't wait for First Things First tomorrow..
  22. The team that makes the most sense to me is, wait for it, wait for it, New England. They desperately need a WR of his caliber.
  23. Waddle, Hill and Gisecki would make for a formidable receiver group.
  24. YES!!!!!!!!!!! You better not be playing me...
  25. I echo what many others have said here, the only Jet I had an irrational fear of was Crowder. He was the one guy that stood out on their teams. Considering Beane was scratching up change from the couch cushions, this is an A+ signing. Mega-potential here.
