Ryan Fitzpatrick: Hall of Famer? or First Ballot HoFer?
Alphadawg7 replied to DrDawkinstein's topic in The Stadium Wall
I get it was exciting to see Allen win the regular season MVP...but to still be drinking and going hard this early in the morning should be reserved for when Allen wins and raises the Super Bowl MVP trophy -
It doesn't take the sting out of ref screw job in the AFCCG, but at least they can't take this from him now. Well deserved MVP, but what makes Josh so special is that he is an even bigger MVP off the field than he is on the field. And its not for anything other than because its just who he is and he is being his authentic self.

Also having Hard Knocks have his little son proclaim over and over to go get Jayden Daniels isn’t helping hahaha

All good, appreciate the effort. Yeah it doesn’t even list it as a live program, only links to clips.

I don’t think so, they were gonna suck with or without him. And Barkley season would have been a shell of what it was had he played with the Giants and everyone would have been laughing at them for paying a RB so much money when they still suck. There was no winning for the Giants. They were stupid to take a RB 2nd overall in a QB rich draft…would have been stupid to pay him big money when they have a train wreck of a QB situation, and yet would still seem stupid to let him leave to a division rival and go off. Moral of the story: Giants are just stupid lol

Doesn’t work here in California. It’s not even listed in that link as even being on.

Seems that way, did it say why? It airs here at 9pm which is dumb, all the winners are already known

Blacked out for me on both with YoutubeTV
-
yeah WTF, same we have YoutubeTV and it’s blacked out up here in Nor Cal too. We moved to Roseville near Sacramento, so it must be blacked in all of Cali.

LMAO - my gawd, could you imagine. I think I would faint haha But since thats never gonna go get at least one of them Beane...LFG
-
At this point, I don't care who it is...Garrett or Crosby...go get one of them. I would be fine giving up 2 firsts for either of them (hopefully less, but if takes 2 firsts go do it). Then go offer Seattle a 2nd and a 4th/5th and see if you can get DK.

I run a popular and unique Super Bowl squares pool every year if anyone is interested. Its $100 a square, but instead of paying out only once at the end of each quarter (meaning only 4 possible winners), I pay out $500 every single score change, including XP scores. So if the game is 0-0 and Eagles score a TD, who ever has Eagles 6 - Chiefs 0 wins $500. Once the XP is completed successfully, then who ever has Eagles 7 - Chiefs 0 also wins $500. That means there is up to 20 possible winners over the course of the game as we pay $500 a score change until the money is gone. In the event there isn't 20 total score changes before the game ends, all remaining money goes to who had the final score. In the decade plus I have been running this, I think only once did 20 score changes happen, so most of the time final score gets a big bonus on top of what ever they won in game. The biggest was the Cheatriots 13 - 3 win over the Lambs where 3 -3 square won twice in game ($1000) and then when the game ended with it still being 3 -3 as last digits of scores, he got the remaining $7000 for a total win of $8000 that year. DM me if you are interested, and I will send you the link and password to choose your squares. You can get as many as you like, but board is already half full after launching it this morning, so I would ping me soon if you it interests you. Once you pick your squares, just venom or paypal me for the squares. NOTE: The numbers are randomly selected by the hosting site, but they are not chosen until all squares are sold and all money collected first. UPDATE: Board is full. Good luck to those who got in!

The Chiefs are always one step ahead of the Bills...
Alphadawg7 replied to Awwufelloff's topic in The Stadium Wall
No disrespect, but I came in here just because I knew this would be in here. And its not just you, so many people still are hung up about the Chiefs trading up for McDuffie when they shouldnt be and it really should just stop being a thing. Bills were never drafting McDuffie, we already had Taron who had already become one of the top NCB's in the league. This is when like when someone looks at a russet potato and a red potato and just thinks they are the same because they are potatoes. They are not the same thing just because they in the same category. A CB and NCB are not the same player, I mean its like being upset someone drafted a Center ahead of us when we were looking for a tackle and already had a good center. -
Anyone else for using our draft capital for trades?
Alphadawg7 replied to SoonerBillsFan's topic in The Stadium Wall
That was what we were projected when Davis signed his new deal. But season performance affects comp picks, and he didn't finish in the top 35% of his position, so its most likely going to be a 5th now, giving us two 5th round comp picks for him and Floyd. Hopefully we get lucky and get a 4th for Davis, but I don't think that is likely after he did very little while active and then got hurt and only put up the 175th most receiving yards this year. So I expect 1, 2, 2, 4, 4, 5, 5, 6, 6, 6, as our picks this season. -

Alphadawg7 replied to SoonerBillsFan's topic in The Stadium Wall
Agree, but we traded our 3rd for Cooper, so we have 5 over the first 4 rounds, but we have 2 in the 5th too and 3 more in the 6th as well...so we got quite a few extra picks throughout the draft and all our picks next year still. And if we don't resign Cooper, I think he could get us a comp pick too. -
Hahaha - it sure would be

I think its more that this offense is really and truly an "everybody eats" philosophy which the basis of is not rooted in just spreading the ball around, but taking what the defense offers and creating high percentage opportunities. Doesn't mean we shouldn't have an established WR1 on the outside, just think even if we did they are not going to have overwhelming stats like the kind of Seasons Diggs had here earlier on. Now to answer the question, I do think Brady would very much be able to scheme just fine with a bonafide WR1 on the outside. But it wouldn't surprise me if that WR1 finished with modest season totals either due to the nature of this offense which now also includes a very effective ground game.

Alphadawg7 replied to SoonerBillsFan's topic in The Stadium Wall
This is when you make a move like a major trade. This team is on the doorstep with its most important pieces all returning and it has continuity within the staff. Go get Garrett, use 2 firsts if you have to. Then if you see another player available where we can add a high quality player at Outside WR, CB, or S that could be had in a trade using one of our 2nds and maybe another pick if need be, pull the trigger. We got a lot of draft capital this year, and the least amount of holes to fill in a long time. Use some to go get the talent for a team that is absolutely ready to win NOW and do it before the other teams in our division get better as well.- 99 replies

Cooper Kupp leaving the Rams. Want him?
Alphadawg7 replied to Chandler#81's topic in The Stadium Wall
That is a fair question, and I would say probably not individual to individual, but based on where Kupp is at this point in his career and where Shakir is, I would say Shakir is at least pretty close and wouldn't surprise me if Shakir proves to be better than Kupp this year just based on Kupps age and injury history. But, collectively as a group, this unit can do most of everything Kupp would bring to the table at a high level an they showed that this year as I mentioned before, the 2024 Bills offense was historically good, set numerous records both as a team and individuals. So for me the question becomes would adding more redundancy to what they do well really take that and elevate that next year even if that individual does it a little better than our guys here? I mean we are asking the 16th greatest offense in NFL history to be better next year. A team that set numerous team and individual offensive NFL records this season. For me, the only way that feels realistic to be better next year is to bring someone in that excels at where this group is less effective at, which is obviously more of an outside deep threat. I am not sure what their intent is with Cooper, I personally wouldn't resign him unless its a very team friendly deal. There is just this edge or gear I feel like is missing with him, that "dawg" that needs to come out in big moments, not to mention his age just ups injury risk. Now I won't be pissed if we resign Cooper, and if we do then I still think they need to draft a rookie then that is a take the top off kind of player because Cooper isn't really that kind of player even though his a legit outside WR. -
Cooper Kupp leaving the Rams. Want him?
Alphadawg7 replied to Chandler#81's topic in The Stadium Wall
This was my entire point, he just adds more of what we already have and doesn't provide what we lack. Now factor in Shakir, Samuel, and Keon are all 100% back. Hollins is probably back, and Cooper is the wildcard. Obviously Cooper isn't back if they traded for Kupp...and now with Kupp we have an even bigger deficit on the outside than we did this year. Kupp just is not the right fit for what the offense lacks, so he shouldn't be on our radar at all IMHO. And I like Kupp a lot and still think he can be good for someone this year, but we need a legit threat on the outside to elevate the composition of this WR group. -
Yeah, I agree with all this.

Cooper Kupp leaving the Rams. Want him?
Alphadawg7 replied to Chandler#81's topic in The Stadium Wall
I am a big Kupp fan having lived in LA for all his career. Always liked his game. But...I will tell you the downside...everything is about fit. Does he bring the elements this group needs right now at this stage of his career? The answer is no, because he is redundancy on this roster with both Shakir and Samuel here. This roster needs a down field outside threat, we have tons of options over the middle in the short to mid range attack that Kupp eats at right now. Would I be upset if we get Kupp...of course not. But do I think he changes much for this offense this next season...probably not a whole lot. This offense was the 16th best offense in NFL history and greatest in Bills history. If anyone really expects to improve upon that, then we need to add someone that adds a dimension this offense is missing, and Kupp doesn't bring much of that at this stage of his career. I think he can still be a very good player for someone, but I don't think he changes a whole lot for the Bills offense based on the makeup of our roster right now. -
With atrocious QB's
