  1. sounds a little controversial....
  2. biggest worry, monday night let down.
  3. I know but we need a battering ram, not more water bugs.
  4. No problem trying to address any chinks in the Bills armor. Seems like they need a beast running back for short yards. Singletary is 5-7, Moss is 5-9, both are 205 or so. Cook is a 5-11 string bean. The FB Gilliam is 6 feet 244 but does he have it? Spend a high pick on a RB.
  5. Sad, very sad and tragic. Still the best, most exciting pure running back the Bills and NFL have ever seen.
  6. I watched that Bears / 9ers game and Trey Lance was horrid even in the rain. He looked lost and the 43% completion percentage and 50 QBR are quite telling. It is the age old story of developing a young QB vs tanking the season. I would not be happy as a 49'ers fan.
  7. MA needs to be off the team before the opening game. This is a distraction that the organization cannot afford.
  8. His beard should get in for sure. His music has to be
  9. when i was a teen i used to eat a bucket of 50 from a place in kenmore. they were kind of small.
  10. A common point of view but not true ! Rating their selections and moves just after the draft tells us many things- Did they reach for a player? Did they squander picks to trade up? Did they address team needs? Did they pick players with potential? Did they pick healthy, intelligent players? In other words how did they do at this STAGE of the process?
  11. (6) out of (8) of the picks are in PFFs top 250. https://www.pff.com/news/draft-2022-nfl-draft-board-big-board
  12. Calling it a B+ for now-not qualified to go beyond that. It looks like they picked 5 if not 6 potential starters including an ace punter which could be a very smart move. If Elam, Cook, Shakir, Bernard and Tenuta pan out it will be a through the roof draft.
  13. Our stock is definitely rising ! Possibly the "owner" curse has also been exorcized....
  14. Agreed, I don't think or want the Bills to use their first pick on him, second round or possible trade down from round 1 or trade up from round two gaining an extra pick. The top dogs will be gone by then.
  15. I can see a trade down situation when the Bill's first pick will become available later in the early second round and we get in effect three second round picks. That's when you grab Spiller.
  16. It has been reported Texas A&M RB Isaiah Spiller will be a top 30 visit for the Bills. Basically I want the guy- and I hope the Bills pick him up somehow. The current trend is that RB is not a value position but an elite workhorse runner has always served the Bills well in the past. This will come in handy as the Bills should start considering trying to reduce the mileage and wear and tear Josh Allen typically sees. A gradual reduction through the seasons is highly recommended and Spiller seems like a long term answer. High value in my opinion. Watch this video and see who he reminds you of. Not elite explosiveness but deceptive moves, uncanny vision of the field and great hands. Gifted football instincts. Lets Go ! Draft Scouting Report Rating: 83.37 (Long-term starter) Pro Comparison: Miles Sanders Strengths: Big, thick feature back with dynamic cutting skills, high-end vision and contact balance. Very capable hands. Made difficult grabs down the field during his college career and can handle typical out-of-the-backfield duties. Stop-and-start skill is that of a scat back. His elusiveness is actually more impressive than his contact balance, but he rarely goes down on first contact. Often had to sneak through tiny cracks between the tackles. Can make defenders miss immediately after receiving the handoff. Awareness is great. Has the eyes and flexibility to do it. Amazing how he can find creases in the defense at his size. Weaknesses: Long speed leaves a lot to be desired. Not as explosive as some of the other top-tier backs in this class. Accolades: 2021: AP All-SEC second team 2021: Fifth in SEC in rush yards (1,011)
  17. NO. Smart teams draft for next year's needs and future development. No way any player they pick will be able to fill TW's shoes.
  18. but how many chicken wings?
  19. Two exclamation points in the title of this thread?
  20. I had to look at the date and make sure it wasn't 4/1. I think he'll be sorry....
  21. friction good. it is an emotional competitive high pressue game
  22. Defenses are at a disadvantage in today's game. Defending against a high scoring offense seems more difficult than scoring a touchdown against a good defense. Call it top half, bottom half if you will but it should be a successive possession overtime. I do not see this as extending the time played like a triple OT hockey game or an extra sets tennis match. The bottom half team gets to match or better the top half team's possession. Match it and play another two possessions. Beat it and game over. Fail to match the score and game over. I think this needs to happen, not just because it happened to the Bills (but maybe a little bit)
