People are going to have to learn to live with the virus in circulation. Right now, from what I’ve read, as many as 5% or so of Americans have become infected. Until that hits 60% to 70% or there is a vaccine, the virus is going to make its rounds and we can’t cancel life in the meantime. The NFL, like everyone else, needs to develop protocols to deal with infected players.

Quarterback sneaks and Josh Allen stats
vincec replied to CorkScrewHill's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I think Fitz converted on a 3rd and 7 with a QB sneak a few years go. It depends on the defense. -
Goodell Admits NFL Was Wrong Not to Listen
vincec replied to K-9's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
It’s the culture of unaccountability that’s surrounds the police. If there were no videos there would be no charges. The police never commit any crimes according to them and their unions. -
I don’t think he’ll regress much. They have a better team around him than last year and Gailey will know how to play to Ryan’s strengths, but I think Tua will get some starts eventually this season - as soon as their playoff hopes are officially sunk

Mt Rushmore of Buffalo coaches (Bills and Sabres)
vincec replied to JetsFan20's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Ok, but I thought this was for the “Mount Rushmore of Buffalo coaches.” If we are talking about GMs then Bill Polian needs to be up there. -
Mt Rushmore of Buffalo coaches (Bills and Sabres)
vincec replied to JetsFan20's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Punch Imlach was only with the Sabres for a year and a half after spending his entire career with the Maple Leafs, right? Isn't he really a Maple Leaf and not a Sabre? I don't think he would belong on a Buffalo Mt. Rushmore. -
The Draft is a total crap shoot...
vincec replied to Inigo Montoya's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
The top 7 picks are all pro bowlers. But carry on... -
A fun look back at a game winning drive from the 2014 season

Behind that offensive line it's actually amazing tbh. -
Reason the Dolphins fired their OC
vincec replied to Nihilarian's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
So, to be more precise: In 12 years as NFL OC or HC. His QBs have been: Fitz for 5 years, Tyler Thigpen for 1 year Jay Fielder for 2 years, Troy Aikman for 2 years (retired after following season) Mike Tomczak Kordell Stewart So it's not just Fitz. He has had mediocre to bad QBs his entire time. Some of that is his own doing so you can't absolve him of responsibility, but I am interested in seeing how he does with Tua. -

That and he has always had Fitz at QB. -
Flacco to the Jets on a one year deal...
vincec replied to JoeF's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Bills now have the worst backup QB in the division. Hopefully Allen stays healthy. -
NFL Approves Rule Changes for Hirings
vincec replied to DCOrange's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I don't want to go in circles here because as I said I agree with the rule for the reasons you an eball stated but the rule is in place to increase the representation of minorities in the coaching ranks, which is a quota based goal. People don't feel that there is enough minority representation coaching. It's not merit based. People weren't saying that coaches stink and if they open up the pool more when they hire then the standard will improve (although this may be the case.) If you are applying for a job with 2 candidates, are your chances better to get it than if there are 10? What about 20? You can say that if you're the best then it doesn't matter but that's not reality because your skills are not measured in a vacuum they are measured against the other applicants. The "best" means better than the other applicants. So if there are lots of other applicants, it's harder to be the "best" (unless you're the best possible candidate in the world I guess.) -
NFL Approves Rule Changes for Hirings
vincec replied to DCOrange's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
So if the rule doesn't improve the chances that a minority gets the job then what's the point of it? Is it just for show? So that more minority candidates are interviewed but actually makes no difference at all to their job prospects? If the rule is designed to increase the chances of minorities getting hired then it reduces the chances of everyone else when there are a finite group of positions. -
The Athletic: Vic's Over/Under (Bills over 8.5)
vincec replied to inthebuff's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Barring the unforeseen, like an injury to Mayfield, this seems legit to me. 10 or 11 wins. -
NFL Approves Rule Changes for Hirings
vincec replied to DCOrange's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Look, I agree with this rule change but it's a zero sum game. There is one HC position available and if you institute a rule to improve the chances of one minority group to get the position then you reduce the chances for the others, by definition. And if this rule doesn't try to improve the chances of a minority to get the position then what's the point of it? -
That’s quite a mental image! ?

Earl Thomas is trending, let’s click on that
vincec replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I agree. This statement is by her attorneys, not Nina Thomas, and have nothing to do with the event in question. It's just a presentation of how awesome she is. The only reference to the event is at the end when they basically just says that this is BS and they will get her out of it. -
