  1. What was funny is that the announcers had no idea this was the case until the rules guy came on and told them. I was screaming, hey idiots, it doesn't matter if he lost he ball before he went out or not, he clearly touched it while out, end of story. How do they hire such idiots in the booth?
  2. Pay off any and all debts, invest the rest, retire by 50 at the latest.
  3. I prefer "The Bear" but I like where your heads at. By far the best 3 Stones albums when he was in the group IMO. My all-time favorite solo. Duane coming in at 1:08 and then Dickey at 2:39. Now, Dickey Betts is great for sure, but to me he just didn't compare to the smoothness of Duane and I can certainly hear a big time difference just in this song alone. Duane's last song with them and also the first song Dickey sang. Quite the historic song. And this is pretty sick too. Another one who died way too soon, Mike Bloomfield.
  4. Couldn't win a game where his defense gave him 6 turnovers to work with. That's embarrassing.
  5. Landry Jones signed with the 0-16 Browns this off-season. Puh-lease.
  6. Honestly, he just needs to improve his accuracy a little, not a ton just a little, and learn from mistakes on the field. Then he'll be pretty damn good. That is by no means a Herculean task and I am way more pleased with the direction of this team than most. This was never a 2 year project and everyone who matters in the organization realizes that and supports it, despite was some fans want to think.
  7. Their biggest problem isn't their talent, it's the lack of communication. No way an NFL team should have so many guys running unblocked at the QB instantly. They are not recognizing assignments and executing on who should block whom. Guys are double teaming rushers and leaving guys completely unblocked. It's not like they are outnumbered or anything. This is happening on 4 and 5 man rushes. I think this is where Wood really excelled. Calling the line adjustments and making sure rushers were accounted for. And they are not fantastic blockers when engaged either, but they are adequate.
  8. Don't really think we have a great shot, but that -16.5 spread is very enticing.
  9. This dude is on the crusade of all crusades is seems.
  10. A salty ex-player who is in such high demand that he got a 1 year contract for $5M after leading the league in tackles and only 25 years old. I could not care less what he thinks. Talk to me when someone who matters says something. And sorry Aaron, no one else wanted to see you get paralyzed on the field either, so no one signed you.
  11. Is there going to be a new Mahomes thread every single week for the rest of his career? Just curious. Seems to me this has been discussed over and over and over and over and over and over again.
  12. They also showed that he gets injured every single season. Including this one already.
  13. Was that a free verse poem or something?
  14. People in here acting like Jeremy Kerley is some Hall of Famer or something. SMH.
  15. I guess I missed when the NFL switched to a one game schedule....any no one cares about how much faith you have.
  16. Don't really understand how hard this is to comprehend. AJ McCarron ain't crap. He's been in the league a whopping 4 years before this year, playing sparingly. What gives him the credentials to be such a great veteran presence to guide young QBs? Does just being in the league for 4 years qualify you for that? He was so good that no other teams wanted him really and we got him for the huge sum of $5M per year. Impressive. Peterman is a practice and Pre-Season superstar. Last season Tyrod was terrible. I'm sorry, he was. I don't care if he didn't throw any picks. You know what else he didn't throw? Touch downs! Peterman looked good in practice so they gave him a shot because they saw the obvious, Tyrod wasn't going to cut it. It was a disaster, so they went back to Tyrod as our best option. Then this season, it was blatantly obvious that he was the best of the bunch in the pre-season games. How could you not roll with him based on that performance? How could you keep the room by saying it was an open QB competition, but then you chose Allen over Peterman even though he was clearly better on the field in games? Peterman got another shot, blew it again and was replaced, most likely for good this time. Peterman earned the chance, didn't deliver. Now we move on to Allen and see what we got, maybe a bit before they are 100% comfortable doing so, but the realization that Peterman just doesn't get it in "real" speed came quick and the decision to change was decisive. It's really not that complicated at all folks.

  18. You can lose 6 games by over 40 points and still make the playoffs. All you have to do is win 9 or 10 by 1 point.
  19. This site is becoming almost as unbearable to visit as my facebook account. Sad.
  20. So, keeping AJ McCarron, the fantastic "vet" you call for who coudln't even start for the Bengals, is some high and mighty influence who is going to determine Josh Allen's career path. My lord, get a hold of yourself friend. Do you realize how crazy that sounds? You have no idea whatsoever what kind of leader / mentor AJ is / would have been to Josh. He is a career back-up QB who has been in the league a whopping 4 years. And at first you want McD fired, now you want Beane fired too. You have lost it, completely lost it.
  21. So, let me get this straight. EJ, who was thrown in to start week 1, had his development botched by starting too soon. Now you are saying Josh Allen's development is botched by not starting week 1. Hum, interesting. They seem like the exact opposite scenarios from where I'm sitting. Cool story though. Dude got us into the playoffs with a bunch of scrubs on our team and you want to fire him because he continues to execute on the organizations long term goals / plan and you demand instant gratification from a team which is clearly not ready yet talent wise to compete on a regular basis? By all accounts this team over performed last year, and McD was a big part of that. You build the culture first, sacrificing talent over the type of person they want in some cases. But, after you do have a strong locker room then you can add high talent, but riskier personality wise, guys that your close team can handle and foster. Calm down buddy.
  22. So basically, half the people around here click on a title just to post in the thread about that title name without even reading the guys post. Funny stuff.
  23. Seriously, all these beer snobs are starting to get pretty annoying. You realize that taste and taste preference is 100% subjective, right? Maybe, just maybe, they drink bud light because they think it taste better. Couldn't it really be just that simple? It's funny, you buy a bottle of Johnnie Walker Blue and you get way less flavor and taste (IMO) than you get in a bottle of Johnnie Walker Black. But in this case, the Blue is over 2x more expensive than the Black. And you can say that about a lot of scotches. But with beer it's the exact opposite. What gives? Who is right?
