  1. With the way this day has gone, I expect that if someone at One Bills Drive was asked to make such a call, they'd accidently call Jeff Tuel instead.
  2. Peterman may very well be the starter week 1. And irregardless of how well he may be performing at the moment, we know what the regular season will entail: Eight defenders in the box to stop Shady. A flat-footed Peterman missing targets. Passes tipped at the line. Peterman focused on the oncoming rush, and failing to look downfield. Peterman locking on to one target, and failing to go through his progressions. Peterman holding the ball far too long, exacerbating the blocking issues this unit already has, leading to avoidable sacks. Poor throws leading to receivers potentially being at risk of injury. And, of course, turnovers aplenty- interceptions, fumbles, etc..We've seen this crap before- Peterman is just another in a long-line of mediocrities the Bills have been trotting out since Todd Collins. The sooner Allen plays, the better. Who cares if they go 4-12; get Allen out there and let him learn.
  3. Why attempt to punch Mills when Ducasse would be a much more viable target?
  4. And the Bills will not be inundated with calls from Jeff George asking to speak to Beane.
  5. You might as well sign T.O.. He may be 40 something, but he has to be faster than the plodding, lead-footed LaFell.
  6. Tyrod was the starter here for 3 years. He had 1....ONE...300 yard passing game to his credit during that stretch. Tom Brady, Brees, Rodgers, Roethlisberger- they have surpassed 300 yards in only one HALF of football from time to time. Taylor wasn't lacking for weapons, either: Watkins, Robert Woods, Marquise Goodwin, Chris Hogan, Kelvin Benjamin, Jordan Mathews, Charles Clay- even Shady McCoy and Dimarco are solid receivers. These skill players have proven with other QBs how effective they can be in this league as receivers. Tyrod is just not starting-caliber in the league as it's presently constituted- 134 yards on 37 attempts in the playoffs is embarrassingly bad. Sorry...he's a likable guy, runs well, doesn't turn it over, etc.. But he'll never take you beyond where we went with him here...8-8, 7-9, 9-7 at best.
  7. Am I the only one that has had their fill of this analytics garbage? I enjoy football for a myriad of reasons; but more and more the statistical analysis has crept into the mix, leading to over-scrutiny of prospects, players, coaches, GMs, etc., which undermines the ability of fans, such as myself, to actually sit down, crack open a beer, and watch the damn game or, for that matter, the draft! I'm sure this is palatable to the fantasy geeks that derive orgasmic pleasure from devoting hours pouring over stats galore. But not for "lowbrow" fans like me.
  8. I was wondering if those, who have already decided that Allen will be a bust, can tell me what tomorrow night's Mega Million numbers are going to be. Point is you can't see what's coming. The draft is not some sort of refined art- it is a glorified crapshoot. These executives have a handful of darts that they are throwing, hoping that some stick. And if they hit the occasional bullseye, that's the cherry on top of the sundae.
  9. When you watch Flowers, it's like he has two left feet, or a clubfoot, or one leg that is several inches shorter than the other. He reminds me of Jerry Crafts, which is in no way complimentery.
  10. My inside source is a guy who delivers pizzas for "Cappelli's Pizza". He makes multiple deliveries to John Murphy each day and when Murph is hungry, let's just say he's somewhat loose-lipped about things.
  11. This is bound to be short-lived. The first time Murph dumps his coffee mug full of brown gravy on Tasker's neatly pressed khakis, Steve will undoubtedly seek gainful employment elsewhere.
  12. It' hallucinatory drivel like this that keeps me from entering into that den of iniquity that is the PPP board.
  13. How disgraceful. Only a morally-bankrupt, spineless weasel would fire someone via twitter....like Donald Trump.
  14. I wonder if Andy Reid sits on the Benrus Board of Directors?
  15. I'm sure Murph is disappointed if it is Tasker. Murph was probably clinging to the possibilty that Mayor McCheese or The Burger King would get the gig, bringing with them all the gastronomic delights that they represent.
  16. He would eat the moon if it were made of ribs.
  17. Please be wrong. Mayfield screams imbecilic jackass- Bourbon, Manziel, with a sprightly twist of Ryan Leaf.
  18. What exactly is the fascination with Peterman? Seriously? Quite frankly, he couldn't carry Jeff Tuel's jock. Yet inexplicably there are droves of members here that, not only sing his praises, but are quite convinced that Peterman could become a starting QB in this league. Based on what exactly? Was it his impressively abhorrent play against the Chargers? And yes, let's point the accusatory finger at one of the offensive linemen and blame them for Peterman's abortion of a performance that day.
  19. Go down the road to your local Walmart, spend a few minutes there looking around...then watch NFL Total Access. Lindsay Rhodes will look like a 10 for sure. Still prefer Amber Theoharis though.
  20. I don't know...Allen could be great, or he could be the Bills' worst draft choice since, uhm- Bucky Brooks.
