  1. This is Jimmy G's third serious ankle/foot injury, he has been on the injury report 7 times in the past three seasons. Will teams be willing to spend QB1 money with that history?
  2. You mean like the Pats got Marcus Jones in space vs. Hamlin.
  3. Crowder's game is quickness, not sure how long it will take him to regain this, even if he continued training through his injury, how much damage was done to the soft tissue. I remember busting an ankle one time and it was several months even with PT to get it right.
  4. If the ball never touches the ground before the player is down, that should be a catch/interception, regardless if its moving a bit. Seems like they league is far more strict on what is a catch than what is a fumble. The say the ground can't cause a fumble, but it can cause an incomplete pass.
  5. Yes, but just think what a beating the Pats took having to be on defense for 38 minutes. That 94 yard 9 minute drive was epic. That will be in the Pats heads for a while. That being said, hoping for a snow game in NE vs the 'phins on New Years Day, and Stevenson pounds the rock.
  6. Is Poyer headed for a Russell Wilson type scenario, moves to another team, late in his career for his position, and hits the wall? Since he's a West Coast native, I could see him headed to the 49'rs if he wants another shot at a ring. He's the 8th oldest safety in the league and analytics have him as the #19 S. There are only 3 safeties [McCourty being one] more than a year older than he is. Edmunds will cost a lot, he's one of the top coverage MLB's in the league and with his wingspan it's difficult to use the middle of the field. Food for thought.
  7. I think he means that Dawkins was out, and Quessenberry was walking wounded. Q almost got Josh killed on that strip sack.
  8. And Hamlin is going to get his pocket picked by the league to rub it in.
  9. FitzMagic is going to become the best analyst in the game and soon. Knows the game, super smart, and has a nice delivery.
  10. weather channel says winds out of the west at 9 mph at 8pm, and dropping after that.
  11. People forget that Wade Phillips basically built the Rams defense that won the super bowl last year. He never had a QB as talented as Josh, but he is a Jedi Master as a DC.
  12. Last year we lost to Jacksonville, so nothing is for certain. Game is also Christmas Eve, so hopefully players aren't distracted with family stuff/inlaws etc. If Miami game is flexed to Sunday night, will also be facing a short prep/recovery week.
  13. How will this #2 be paid for? Josh's huge contract kicks into high gear next year, we have to either pay or replace Edmunds, Von's cap hit goes up $13MM. We can hope we get lucky drafting between 25 and 32 with a wide out, but that's about it. We have Davis at a draft discount for next year, but then he will make at least the $10MM that Bobby Trees is making.
  14. Yikes. Was Siemian hurt and aggravated something?
  15. And the Lions were on a 3 game win streak, playing at home, and their consistent finishing in the cellar means they are now accumulating some talent. St. Brown is a top 5 wide out, Ragnow is a top center, Sewell is a coveted tackle, Hutchinson is emerging as a talented pass rusher. Bills were missing Rosseau, Hyde, Edmunds, Morse, 4 of 22 starters. lose Von & Dion during the game, and had Tre White on a pitch count. Close the high windows.
  16. Jefferson is a top three receiver in the league, St. Brown is emerging as a top receiver, Cooper is an established vet who has played a long time. I also think they probably wouldn't have been as explosive if we had a fully healthy Tre, which could be a ways off is history is any indication.
  17. People forget another Bills backup, who went on to win his ring as the OC for the Eagles, I could see Peterman becoming a QB coach then OC after his career is over.
  18. Out of 11 games played, our defensive starters have missed 35 games [Tre - 10, Hyde - 9, Poyer - 4, Oliver - 3, Edmunds - 3, Rousseau - 3, Elam - 2, Cookie -1] average of 3.2 per week - only Tre was out week 1. That's 29% of your starters out every week.
  19. Without some of the antitrust exemptions doubtful a small market like Buffalo would ever have a team.
  20. Seattle to Munich they go over Arctic Canada and Greenland, 8 hour flight, 4600 nautical miles. LAX to Munich is 5200 nautical miles. Munich to London is just under 600 air miles. There was a Roger Goodell interview last night and he said all 32 teams will be playing international games. With Mexico City in the mix, suspect that's where a lot of the West Coast Teams will play international games.
  21. That's correct, Gilman thought he could sneak him through, think he had a broken finger, Saban claimed him and he only played the last four games of the 1962 season.
  22. I was unfortunately in a skybox at Adelphia Coliseum and watched the whole thing unfold before my very eyes, Bills Fan since 1960, and with my son who has been a Bills fan his entire life.
  23. That crosser to Gabe was also a bit of redemption for #13, as he had some hands of stone on a couple of earlier throws. That being said we gave up 3 TD's and only scored two ourselves. Glad that Bass-o-Matic was having a career day.
  24. Browns are supposed to have one of the elite O-Lines in the league. That being said, we controlled Chubb, and despite missing 4 defensive starters, including our #1 and #3 corners, our MLB, , we still had a 3 score lead until giving up a couple of TD's in desperation time for the Browns.
  25. Kemp was very active in the community, probably with an eye to his later political career, he spoke at MANY HS awards banquets, Elks, Kiwanis, Rotary. He was also probably the master of the quarterback sneak in that era. He often would get those tough yards for a first down or TD behind Billy Shaw.
