All_Pro_Bills

"Today, Joe Biden thought he was running against George Bush... for real".

I hate to call this a "statement" game but that's what I think it is next Sunday. The Bills look to be the superior team although they haven't played up to their potential for the past 3 weeks. Chalk it up to a lot of issues, interruptions in the schedule, injuries, and such. Maybe the defense pulled out of their funk in the second half yesterday? And the offense needs to finish drives with TD's and not shoot themselves in the foot with penalties, some questionable play calls, and poor execution. But this is a game they should win against the Patriots. We know what NE is likely to do here. On offense focus on a running game with Newton and the RB's mixing in some short passing while running some clock. And on defense bringing pressure, a spy on Allen, and scheming to take away the over the top passes while making Josh take short and check down throws. The big thing is absolutely none of this should be a surprise or a secret. Much of it they've done for years against the Bills with great success. But this time the team has much more talent on offense than in the past. So there is absolutely no excuse for the coaching staff on both sides of the ball to not have a decent game plan ready to counter these strategies and the team ready to execute it.

Wow! A stop on 4th and 1. From what I've seen so far didn't see that coming. Now let's get 7..

I'm not sure what your point is other than to demonstrate you're more informed on the subject or smarter than me. That's okay, I don't claim expert status on the subject. My point was that NAZI Germany was a socialist society in form and function where the regime centralized total power and control and all decision making. Where citizens existed to serve the state. And it was a brutal dictatorial police state . Along with trying to dispel the myth held by a lot of people on the left that socialist regimes are democratic in nature. In practice they are not.

After reading through and commenting on the topic here I'm still not sure what the OP is getting at here? Is there an insinuation that America supports Nazi's? What's missing from the statement America was friendly with Hitler is context. For one its not possible to view and evaluate the events of the 1930's pre-WW2 era through the context of 2020. The world was in a worldwide depression. Germany had just been defeated in WW1 and humiliated and economically crippled by the terms of the Versailles treaty. The conditions for socialist/communist sympathies were present (and once again the NAZI's were the National Socialist German Workers Party. The dictator part came later in 1932). And what does it mean to be "friendly"? And what does "America" mean? A government policy, private citizens, or private organizations? Once you answer these types of clarifying questions you can conclude that specific individuals and organizations (some of them German-American organizations) might have been "friendly" to the Reich but there was never any official US policy of support for the Nazi's or Hitler's regime. And archives of official German records of the time clearly show Hitler had no love or friendship for America. And prior to America entering WW2 there as a clear policy of supporting the allies, specifically the UK. Anyone suggesting the U.S. had some official policy of friendship or cooperation with Nazi Germany over and above normal diplomatic relations is wrong. U.S. pre-war policy was clearly skewed towards the U.K. and never rendered any direct or intentional aid to the Nazi regime.

I think this is a great idea. The government should give each and every one of us $100,000 a year so none of us has to work or be wanting for anything.

No America was not a proponent of the NAZI's. The allegation, even if true, that private individuals, organizations, and business provided support to the NAZI's pre-war does not by definition conclude that America, its government, and citizens supported the NAZI's. Those group represented their own interests. The U.S. clearly supported the Allies, Brittan. France, and other occupied countries before entering the war. After the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, Germany declared war on the U.S. A fact is that America was the only country Germany offically declared war on during WW2.

Yes, Volkswagon. Watch the series" Hilter's Empire: The Post-War Plan". It makes what the Reich was all about very clear. State control over every aspect of the lives of every citizen. A belief the citizen exists to serve the state. No freedom of choice or self determination. That's a socialist's wet dream. And still there are people that insist the NAZI's were not socialists even in the face of a clear historical record. Because they were brutal thugs and psychotic murderers? News flash. So are ALL socialist regimes. Deniers are either in denial of history or ignorant of history or simply refuse to accept the truth. Preferring to live in the fantasy that has been created for them to believe in. That fantasy being socialism is "good".

NAZI stands for National Socialist (German) Workers Party. So yes, Hitler came to power under a socialist party platform and agenda. Beware socialists bearing gifts. A Trojan Horse. Don't be fooled by a something for nothing proposition. The thing people always end up surrendering is their freedom. This you can 100% count on.

My smell test of whether a country is free or not is how they control their national borders. A free society maintains a border patrol/enforcement organization to keep people from entering illegally (or if you prefer, undocumented). Socialist/Communist countries maintain border patrols to keep people from leaving. Generally by force up and including lethal force. It one of the biggest tools of state control available to them designed to enslave the most productive members of society in order to keep the elites and their armies of social enforcers living well. If all the productive people leave the whole thing goes to Hell. My message to wanna-be American Socialist is that I have no issue with them being Socialists. In fact there's nothing stopping them from doing it now. Just get a business or some enterprise together and apply the socialist principals, whatever they might be, in running the organization. See if it works. But please don't try to force me to go along with your plan. I kind of get the idea that you all expect people like me, people that have jobs and a paycheck, are going to foot the bill for all your "great" ideas. You want to play, then you need to pay. Best of luck.

There's a lot of support for protecting the environment. What's missing from the discussion is what are the "costs" in terms of funding outlays and costs and potential changes in living arrangements and standards. Clean energy plans are almost exclusively linked to converting petroleum based energy consumption to electricity. But it needs to be noted that electricity is not an energy source. Its an energy carrier. The source is the system or process that creates or generates it. If you do the math against the BTU or energy output potential of oil, gasoline, and natural gas and equate that to the amount of "Green Energy" electrical generation capacity needed to equal our current consumption you'll find the green footprint on the economy and landscape is many times larger than what is being discussed. For the electrical grid the goal is to produce constant and uninterruptible base load output without variance. No pure solar/wind generation setup is going to be able to do that. You'll need batteries for a start to design for drops and dips in wind and sunlight. Plus adding capacity for seasonal differences in weather and the Earth's tilt to the Sun. The ironic thing is factories that produce wind turbines and solar cells & collectors and batteries use a lot of oil. Or can you run a solar and wind and battery manufacturing facility on green energy without things like plastics and other materials derived from hydrocarbons? These are just some details I don't see any discussion about. It leads me to conclude talk about total elimination of the use of oil and the oil industry is pure fantasy unless your want to cut the living standard of every person back to an 1800's level. Mostly driven by a false belief that "technology" can solve every problem we'll every encounter.

You touch on a lot of history here. Some of it I have forgotten. I thought Wade was a decent coach. He wasn't the greatest thinker of the time but his teams played well and were usually prepared. And he had an overall winning record in Buffalo. He was done in by the Johnson/Flutie debate of the time and his refusal to fire an assistant which led to Ralph Wilson firing Wade. In my view, after the heartbreaking playoff loss, this was the event that sent to Bills into the abyss of the NFL basement for the next 15 seasons. Donahoe was a good personnel guy but he was very sensitive to any potential incursions on his turf and power within the organization after what looked like being odd-man-out in Pittsburgh. Enter Gregg Williams, a successful defensive coordinator for the hated Titans of the Illegal forward pass era. A guy described at the time as very well prepared and ready to assume the head coaching job. He just seemed to be an over-bearing authoritarian type coach that might play out in certain situations but over time wore out his welcome with the players. Especially when all the bravado and talk didn't translate to winning. He was let go soon after. Good managers or coaches learn and adjust their styles and approach over time to fit the situation. But Gregg doesn't seem to be one of them. His routine doesn't play well to the current crop of players. They are more vocal and opinionated on how the team should be run. This can be both bad and good. I think part of their outspoken character is driven by the huge gains in compensation and player freedoms compared to previous era's. Simply, a guy with $20M in guaranteed money is going to be feel a lot freer to provide his view than a guy on a non-guaranteed minimum contract. The other part of it is the current players are more aware and informed on what's going on around them inside and outside the game. In summary I don't expect any team will come calling for Williams about any head coaching vacancies, ever.

Well he won't be convicted if he wins because the new administration will crush and end any and all investigations. He'll likely be removed within 6 month through the 25th Amendment and Kamala Harris will become President. When this happens she'll get a call from Hillary Clinton who will suggest Kamala name her the new VP. So now Hillary is the VP. Next in line for the top job. After a couple weeks Kamala is getting nervous and realizes she might have made a mistake. Suddenly she has an epiphany. She's in danger of getting "Clintoned"! The cause of what many believe is other mysterious deaths. Like the guy that committed suicide by shooting himself 8 times! So now the job of President doesn't seem that great. She doubles her security detail and makes sure her doors are all locked and secure every night. Is afraid to eat anything, get near electricity, or start her own car. Hillary sits back quietly thinking to herself "that's okay, sooner or later you'll let down your guard and then I'll finally be President"!

The Ravens always seem to get value in their trades and picks. They picked up Calais Campbell for what I recall is a 5th rounder in the 2020 draft. The front office and the coaching staff identify a deficiency, perhaps from their earlier game against the Chiefs, and then look for ways to correct it. In this case improving the pass rush while allowing for more defenders to drop into coverage. The Bills are quite a bit behind but so are almost every other team. Well done Ravens..

Not sure what the big deal is here. Was it a little weird? Yes. But the guy didn't break any law and the women is 24 years old. So who cares? Doesn't the liberal left support all kinds of sexual deviates and perverts? So they should embrace this event as a normal and beautiful thing. The idea here is to bait and switch the story away from Joe and Hunter by discrediting the messenger. And at the end of the day even if Rudy is a total sleaze ball that doesn't mean Joe and Hunter are not. And it doesn't mean Hunter's files are not incriminating evidence of criminal payoffs and official corruption at the highest levels of our government. Sadly, most Americans are so stupid they'll support Biden and the media is jumping all over the Borat story while whitewashing and suppressing the Hunter/Joe story as nothing matters other than getting rid of Trump.

I'm not laughing at anything but if you must know, and I'm sure you do, those photos you refer to were from the Obama era. But your refusal to answer a simple question about the Biden's and their personal vices is telling. Why can't you admit they are what they are? Which is something very disturbing. When your position is devoid of facts it is difficult to provide an answer. So deflect, change the subject, accuse the other person of something. Anything to get the conversation off the main topic or point of contention. At the end of the day its fun, right? If you keep pressing them it can go on forever. You'll never get a straight answer.

As the Biden's are the pedophiles then you are by definition supporting the perverts. Why can't you just admit it? Joe's as dirty as a pig in a mud hole and his son was caught red handed with his own personal correspondence that he was selling access to his then VP father. With the knowledge and consent of the VP. That combined with sexual perversion and an affinity for under-age girls. So let me ask. Would you trust either of these characters to watch your daughter for the afternoon?

So you are good with supporting and voting for child molesters and pedophile perverts?

Which candidate and his son are pedophiles? Hint: the guy that's on video sniffing hair and fondling women. And the son that's banging his dead brother's wife.

The defense of the last two games is giving me flashbacks to consecutive games in 2017 against the Saints and Chargers. 47-10 and 54-24 losses. Somehow they managed to pull things together down the stretch and qualify for the playoffs. They need to do that again.

Hypothetically speaking the Bills score a go ahead TD but leave enough time on the clock for the Chiefs offense to shred a shoddy Bills defense and score the winning points as the game clock winds down. Another scenario is what if Bass makes the end of 1st half FG which he missed by a mile and the Chiefs lead 26-20 when the Bills get the ball back late in Q4. Being down just 6 does the game end differently than the floater from Allen which gets picked? I note that Hauschka missed 3 end of 1st half FG attempts in games last year too. All games the Bills lost and all games where those 3 points might have made a difference in the outcome. So the pattern missing in the clutch half-ending situations continues.

I re-watched several plays and to me it looks like his throwing mechanics, release, body placement have been impacted by the left shoulder injury. The support brace/sleeve he had on also looked to be greater than the week before. They won't say it but I think the Chiefs knew this and tailored their defensive strategy to crowding the line and daring Allen to throw knowing his physical form is compromised by the injury which is altering his delivery.

I think Allen's left shoulder injury is a lot worse than the team is saying. To me it looked like his throwing mechanics, his footwork, throwing stance, and release were are compromised by the need to compensate for the injury. This will come out at some point but for now he's taking a lot of criticism.

if you really believe the left holds the moral high ground here all I can say is you must not be paying attention to what's been going on with things like cancel culture or suppression of non-conforming beliefs by the intellectual left. Truth is they're simply intolerant bigots that are scared to openly debate the merits of their views and the views of others. Also, by avoiding the primary topic I suspect you know Biden is as dirty as a pig in a mud hole.

Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe said this morning when asked about the Russia angle: "Let me be clear. The intelligence community doesn't believe that because there is no intelligence that supports that." "We have shared no intelligence with Chairman Schiff or any other member of Congress that Hunter Biden's laptop is part of some Russian disinformation campaign. It's simply not true." "And this is exactly what I said I would stop when I became the director of national intelligence, and that's people using the intelligence community to leverage some political narrative." "And in this case, apparently Chairman Schiff wants anything against his preferred political candidate to be deemed as not real and is using the intelligence community or attempting to use the intelligence community to say there's nothing to see here." "Don't drag the intelligence community into this. Hunter Biden's laptop is not part of some Russian disinformation campaign. And I think it's clear that the American people know that." Bye, bye Russia hoax.
