  1. He actually looks better than I expected. Made some nice grabs vs Seattle and seems to be a decent sideline target for TT. He's come a long way from 2014 when he had like one catch all year.

    I agree here.

     

    There were quotes after Goodwin's failed Olympic trials saying that he needed to put something like 20+ pounds of muscles back on to be in football shape - i.e., strong enough to "take a beating".

  2. Dareus after coming back from his suspension in Week 5:

    Soon thereafter, Dareus boarded the team plane for a flight to Los Angeles and had a short but poignant interaction with Kim Pegula: "As I was walking on, she was in the first seat to the left, and I told her I was sorry for everything, and that 'I'm gonna do my best to earn your trust back.' She said, 'Marcell, if I didn't believe in you, I wouldn't even talk to you. I already know you love this sport and love this organization. We just want you to be the person you know you can be.' I was speechless; I just never thought that was gonna come out of her mouth. It just really meant the world to me, and it hit me emotionally. I thought about it the whole flight."

  3. wow, Bills still in flux.

     

    One thing i have noticed, and check me her 26. Haven't the Bills moved more players onto the PS suad and then off etc than most years? Seems like Pro scouting is a beehive of activity this year. Although few if any have been brought up, seems the FO is looking hard all the time

    Your perception seems valid, although I think it may have more to do with the increase in practice squad size starting last year (Or maybe it was 2014?)

     

    Edit: Hmm, it looks like the NFL and NFLPA agreed to expand PS from 8 players to 10 players before 2014. They had to re-agree before this season: http://www.sbnation.com/2016/9/3/12773904/nfl-practice-squad-players-roster-rules-eligibility-primer

     

    I seem to recall it was only six players, not too long ago.

  4. For survival... I realized after my pick this past week that I'd unintentionally picked the Browns' opponent every week so far. And..... so far so good, haha.

    After choosing the Browns' opponents the first six weeks, I went with Green Bay this week. Looks like they did not disappoint.

     

    Also, it looks like the 24 of us survivors chose seven different winners for this week.

  5. Rattle Inn is the right call! Don't forget the Noon Central kickoff time, and have fun!

    And you are right in that it won't be on local TV, as the 506 maps were just published.

     

    All I know is you should drink Austin Eastciders (hard cider), my buddy runs their marketing :D:beer:

    Heh, nice. My rule of thumb in Austin was: If Live Oak Hefeweizen is on draught, NEVER choose anything else.

  6. Update: My group will only have ONE vehicle now, due to the acquisition of a Minivan B-) Thanks!

    What time do you have to be in the lot to make sure you get a spot? Driving up from Ohio so leaving pretty early in the morning

    For what it's worth: Hammer's Lot was full at about 9:10am when we pulled up. (My aforementioned minivan guy showed up 50 minutes late... womp womp....)

     

    Hope y'all had a great time!

  7. None. Pretty much the only football at all that I watch is the Bills. The game itself has lost it's appeal to me.

    This. Maybe it's the bills having been so bad for so long.

    I agree with these guys. I haven't watched much non-Bills NFL in a few years. Most recently, though, to answer the OP question, I enjoyed Peyton Manning.

     

    I love watching college football teams in addition to my alma mater. If the Bills ceased to exist, I'd probably turn my attention even more toward college football rather than the NFL.

  8. Your wife will feel right at home because the stadium will be 2/3 Steelers fans at that point.

    If you think PTR is kidding, think again. The last time the Steelers were here (must have been 2010? Stevie Johnson dropped TD in OT), my group of four were (was?) literally the only Bills fans withing 5 rows above and below us, I think section 336ish. Actually, we had Steelers fans fighting with other Steelers fans to stop picking on us leave us alone :(
