“It’s a game of inches” ”He brings a load”

Yeah “Lamar’s mommy” is dumb. Moving her family when he was in high school so he would play QB was dumb. Going to Louisville to continue playing QB was dumb. Not paying an agent to negotiate a slotted NFL rookie contract dumb.

Rex Ryan is a great football coach!

Are we related?

I don’t disagree with any of that, but I just remember Briscoe being fun to watch and winning games for the Broncos as QB. I also remember how much the Bills sucked at QB during his tenure as WR with Bills.

Briscoe only given the opportunity to play QB for part of one season, who knows what might have been.

I believe that’s true as to his time with the Dolphins, they had Bob Griese, but as to his tenure with the Broncos and Bills he was by far the best QB on those rosters. Who was the Bills QB the year Briscoe came to the Bills and was converted to WR? In 1969 Bills QBs were a done Jack Kemp and a never was Tom Flores. For the next couple of years it was Dennis Shaw.

https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/2020/02/23/first-nfl-black-quarterback-modern-era-marlin-briscoe-deserves-recognition/4845446002/ I remember when Briscoe played QB for the Broncos, he was electrifying, but the idiotic racist believe at the time was that a black man could not play QB in the NFL, not smart enough. As the article says when traded to the Bills he was converted to WR. Of course the Bills had no QB at the time, just dumb. Then the Bills draft James Harris, who started for the Bills for a few games. Harris had a decent career, but I think Briscoe was a better QB and better athlete.

Okay I’m in my usual post n Pegula’s bushes. There is a guy with a leaf blower. Could be a disguise, maybe another small WR.

No, a true WR is honest, does not lie. A pure WR is unblemished, or not de-flowered.

Funny I had exactly the same thought this morning and now I’m depressed about loss all over again.

There’s no crying in football! I like Beane and McDermott, I think they are both sincere, I don’t see any arrogance.

Thanks good write up. I think they signed both Gore and Yeldon because they knew that McCoy was done. They were going to try and trade him, if not then cut him. Which is what happened, both of them are as good as gone.

What if a rookie WR forgets he’s now in the NFL, he catches the ball falls down untouched, he stands and flips ball to official that lets it hit the ground, no whistle. Is it a fumble or was the assumption to be his “intent” was to give himself up?

He never knelt, he put his hands out to his sides indicating to his teammates that he was not coming out, he caught it, but did not kneel. He then tried to flip it to the ref who knew it was still a live ball, so he did not catch it. Why did the alternate officials become involved? Aren’t they there as “alternates” in case of injury? They are not officiating unless they replace someone.

I agree, however the greater question is why in hell did you become a Bills fan in 1968? That team stunk.

Thanks, the “Frank Gore Infatuation” has been infuriating. The good news is we won’t have to worry about that next season. The most interesting observation is the offense not fitting Allen, the offense has to be built around him, I hope they are smart enough to recognize that. That being said the Bills are about where I expected them to be, probably even better. Yes they should have put the Texans away, that’s been a problem all year, I’m blaming it on coaches. The Bills never quit, the fourth down stop and the drive to tie was exciting. It took a spectacular play that should have been a sack to beat them. I enjoyed this season, this team and discussing it with all of you.

I’m thinking big pot of meatballs for after the win. I’m too nervous during to eat.

Funny that he mentions “playoff jitters” for Carson, but not for Josh. As for the Bills, Texans, he basically says Bills defense will be up to the task and Texans will not. I hope he’s right.

Saturday can’t get here soon enough!

Heard they also reached out to Don Coryell.

Guess the Dolphins will be looking for a “water bug” type running back.

Duke Williams is still on the team? The safety they drafted like five years ago? Has he been converted to WR?

My brother thinks a win today is important, he feels going into the playoffs on a two game losing streak would be bad. I don’t think it matters. What do you think?

I was at that game. It was the beginning of the end for that era.
