  1. Our WR coach is Adam Henry [Ed.D] 53 yrs old. went to McNeese State. Practice squad player with the Saints in the 90's. Has been the WR coach for 49ers, Browns, Cowboys, Bills. Has coached the likes of Anquan Boldin, Amari Cooper, Odell Beckham Jr, Jarvis Landry, & CeeDee Lamb. Described as a human encyclopedia of WR play.
  2. Before OJ, the record was held by Cookie Gilchrist. 243 yards 5 TD's 12/8/63. Field was pretty much unplayable, standing puddles and mud holes on the field. Was funny watching DT's try to tackle a RB the same size as they were. I was at the game with my dad, and we were FROZEN leaving the stadium.
  3. Cook has been a star. I do wish Brady and his brain trust would figure out a way to use him more in the passing game tho. 12 receptions 13 targets but only 89 yards. We used him heavily in the Ravens game, but 3 targets in the last three games. I remember a guy named Thurman Thomas used to mean defenses had to account for him, often with a CB or safety in the passing game.
  4. Some of us were around for 1964, Elbert Dubenion 42 catches 1139 yards 27.1 average 10 TD's.
  5. ST's - Butker has missed 3FG's and 3XP's, to 1 of each for Prater. Punting, Wishnowsky has a slightly higher net average than Araiza, and has given up only 23 punt return yards on the season. I think that's a slight edge to the Bills.
  6. He is showing on our practice squad as of this morning.
  7. We were visiting longtime friends in the Adirondacks and they only got Patriots and Giants on TV, and I had limited cell reception.
  8. This Wande Owens on the PS intrigues me. Yale grad, 5-10 210 - a bigger DB that could help in run support, explosive athletically, 43" vertical 11'3" broad jump 9.59 RAS. Suspect having gone to Yale he probably gets schemes etc pretty well.
  9. In what universe would you pay your franchise QB $55MM per year to be a "game manager"
  10. I'd take a Hutchinson any day for this defense
  11. Shakir also did it in the New Orleans game. 43 yard screen to the house, breaking tackles, juking defenders out of their shoes.
  12. I just pulled down the Bills roster and it has us at 52 on the active. Beane playing some sort of roster game?
  13. With Kincaid on the Injury list, will we see Hawes get a start at TE?
  14. Pats gave him $3.5 mil guaranteed, including 1.5MM up front to sign. $4.1MM cap hit in 2025 - Bills paid him $2.6 in 2024.
  15. I'm a stats guy - not obsessed, but Hollins was our leading TD receiver in 2024 - he had 5. Our 3 RB's had 8 between them.
  16. Lewis is also our primary backup at Nickel, and Taron has been dinged up this year. So yeah, we're a bit thin and our DB's are having trouble staying healthy.
  17. Parcells begat Belichick
  18. If the Colts have a LB need and cap room, Anarumo is their DC, Wilson was his captain in Cinci.
  19. When we had Thurman, he was a mismatch in the passing game for the LB's of his day. Can we draw up some plays where Cook is used in a similar fashion. Cook has impressed me with his ability to change direction in space, which should give defenses a lot to think about if we use him effectively.
  20. Coleman RAC ?? - with his 4.6 speed [or lack thereof]?
  21. Hoecht becoming eligible not an upgrade? seems like he's a bit of a swiss army knife piece. e.g. Lorax 2.0
  22. If you look at the newpaper articles, Kim and Terry surround McD in the hiring photo and Whaley is to the left of Kim, so I expect she had a lot of input.
  23. Coleman can't get separation, no separation puts your passing game at higher risk of INT's and 3 and outs.
  24. This could turn into a shootout as neither defense is very good, but the offenses are competent. Hopefully Josh shakes off the last two games and comes out of the bye with his superman cape on.
