  1. 1) he’s talking about real performance on the field 2) probably the same offense in which Allen attempted 461 passes in 15 games last year. He might see a 5-10% increase as he moves into his 3rd NFL season, so maybe he’ll trend toward 16th in attempts instead of 21st 3) did you watch Gore last year? He’s done. By virtue of being able to move, Moss will likely be a big upgrade.
  2. 18 seems about right to me. There’s probably an argument to slot him a notch or two higher, and there’s reason for anyone to knock him down a few slots as well.
  3. I believe it was 119, but yeah, he’s 2nd all-time in terms of legendary wrestling stories accumulated. If you really want to be shocked, Google “the legend of Haku”. Haku/Meng is the unanimous choice as the all-time ultimate badass wrestler. If it were real, he’d be undefeated and most likely uncontested. Apparently there were only 2 guys that were even in his realm of badassery: The Barbarian and Harley Race...and neither wanted any part of Haku.
  4. So someone’s personality makes it acceptable to insult/demean/judge them on their appearance?
  5. Without looking at the list, I’d probably have Buffalo somewhere in the 9-11 range. I’ll say 11 behind KC, LAR, NO, TB, Arizona, Cleveland, Seattle, Detroit, Atlanta, and Dallas.
  6. So you’re outraged that people judge others by the color of their skin—something they can’t control—but you find it completely appropriate to call someone that you don’t know a midget dwarf with an ugly wife?
  7. You’re once again searching really hard for a reason to get indignant here. For all you know, Fromm may disagree with that tweet. He may not even be aware of that tweet. Would that be negligent on his part given that he lives in the public eye? Yeah, probably. Would that make him a racist? Nope. Furthermore, are we now asking everyone to be responsible for what people they are connected to on social media publish? Because that’s outrageous. And let’s remember that I haven’t defended what he said, so maybe shelf the ridiculous insinuation you made in that last sentence.
  8. There it is again: if someone reads the opinions of a non-progressive they’re a racist. Is this really an insinuation that you’re prepared to support with facts? PS—You do realize that Shapiro is married to an African woman, right?
  9. Let me get this straight: if Fromm follows people on social media that don’t meet your definition of “progressive” then he’s clearly a racist? You've got me genuinely curious: do you actually believe all of the things you post here? I’m asking because you are admittedly not a Bills fan, yet you spend a significant amount of time on this board, tend to make statements that are typically not defensible by facts, and have on more than one occasion chosen to misrepresent others’ statements. I’m not calling you a troll per se, but it wouldn’t surprise me if you just dropped by to stir the pot.
  10. I keep waiting for the fake QB draw where Allen stops short of the LOS and instead throws it over the DL to a TE in the end zone...it has to be coming. Right?

  12. Well the discussion started by Billlllll saying that tagging a QB twice was a bad recipe because the Redskins didn’t end up retaining Cousins. My response was that the mistake wasn’t the tag, but rather them choosing not to give Cousins the market deal after tagging him twice and instead trading for Smith just to pay him a mere $5M per season less than what Cousins signed for in Minnesota. So if the discussion is whether or not the Redskins handled the position well, there’s no disagreement, which is what I said above. I honestly am not sure why this has become a topic of debate.
  13. That wasn’t what was reported at the time. The reports were that the Redskins low-balled him after the 2nd tag, and that’s when his side broke off talks.
  14. So you agree that the mistake was choosing to pay Smith instead of Cousins? Great, what was all the nonsense about then?
  15. Haha maybe he would have anyway, that’s entirely possible. I just think that the notion that Cousins was so insulted by the $43M in guarantees he was paid over the previous 2 years that he wouldn’t have taken $30M per year for the next 3-5 is patently absurd. I also think that the Redskins made a horrible decision to let him walk and then trade for Alex Smith so that they could give him a contract for $5M per year less—and that was the real mistake. Somehow that means I think that they handled the QB position well—one of these days I’ll get a handle on pretzel logic.
  16. What? That’s among the worst mischaracterizations I’ve read on this board. You can’t possibly be serious right now.
  17. Revisionist history here. Cousins was not pissed off; he gladly signed the tag...twice. He was negotiating with Washington the entire time, but their last offer to him didn’t meet what he believed he could get on the open market. They didn’t want to pay him $30M per year so they didn’t. That’s all. Do you honestly believe that he wouldn’t have re-signed in Washington had they made him the game’s highest paid QB?
  18. What exactly was the problem in Washington? Was it that they tagged Cousins or that they chose to let him go so that they could trade a pick and hand $93M to Smith? The tag wasn’t the issue at all.
  19. His TFLs were down because of the move to LB, but his hurries were the same while his QB knockdowns, sacks, and tackle percentage all increased in 2019.
  20. WHO seems to be downplaying the impact of asymptomatic and pre-symptomatic spread: https://www.cnbc.com/2020/06/08/asymptomatic-coronavirus-patients-arent-spreading-new-infections-who-says.html?fbclid=IwAR1OxLbBPaZSLJeDaL3DnDCdbwsA87QQs1Xi4HRyxYDeMik-OPkQ-WUdCOo
  21. Why not? Suppose by the end of year 5 Allen is a top-15 QB and the team is competing for a championship. They’re close. Wouldn’t it make sense to buy yourself a year and keep the team together? Because? The tag gives you a better out than a Bortles-like contract extension. And there’s no confusion whatsoever: you’ve got a year to prove yourself.
  22. In terms of pass rushing and wrap-up tackling it’s not even close as to who is the better player. And by that I mean they aren’t in the same universe. Maybe Shaq will get there, but he ain’t yet.
  23. All of what you’ve seen is reprehensible and unacceptable. It isn’t a joke to me either. All I meant was that whoever was claiming that there’s evidence of Antifa involvement in property damage resulting from the riots in Portland could certainly find enough photographic evidence to make that claim without sounding tinfoil-hat-like.
