Allen is gonna need all the help he can get out there. Getting rid of one of those players in McCoy, is just gonna make Allens year even harder. I get the long term implications of keeping McCoy vs trading him, but Allen needs someone out there & McCoy is one of those few guys that we have. Theyre not gonna trade him.

Plus with Allen having to start, on an offense that isnt really ready for him, given the inferior talent all around him. It doesnt make much sense to trade 1 of the few players that can help him out there. We're not gonna get any quick fixes to this guys. If that 1st game is any indication, it could be a long season. But we all knew the 1st half of the year would be tough. Just not that tough haha

No way in hell would i want to see McCoy gashing our defense on the Patriots. Plus he was named a team captain for a reason. You just dont trade a team captain to your biggest rival. And no way would the Patriots pay that salary. Just a bit pile of NO imo

Yep I agree, we're not 1 player away from being a competitive team consistently. We're not even a few players away. The price for Mack in a trade with Oakland would've cost too much. Thats why i said i wish we wouldve drafted him, because that is the only scenario where I could've seen him on our team. But like i said hindsight is 20/20. That same line of thought makes me wish we had a better team around Allen to be our starter. Because he HAS to be the starter now, but this team is no where ready for the guy. Our offense isnt 1 player away either. We need help everywhere. The time table McBeane had is now all up in the air. And while Allen will learn, he will get a hard knocks education on what its like playing on a team with inferior talent. Suppose thats the quickest way to learn, as long as he survives it haha.

It sure wouldve helped having him on the field vs The Ravens. But it wouldve been even better if we drafted him instead of Watkins. Hindsight is 20/20 & all that jazz. Good for him, i wish him the best but as long as it isnt versus us.

Yo Tyrod:

Its pretty easy. They make it easy to use so that even a cave man can do it. I'd set it up now just so you're good to go well in advance of the game

No, is she hot? haha j/k

Outta curiosity, you seem to have a lot of interest on this subject, Youre not Jerry Sullivan are you? I can't imagine just anyone would be as interested in this topic, are you Jerry or know him in real life? Not trying to be sarcastic haha On a side note, its a shame that print media is dying. Papers everywhere are cutting back drastically to their staffs.. if theyre even able to stay alive at all. Gleason & Sully are a casualty of the times. I'm sure Sully realizes it was a big part of the changes at the end there. But they had a good run.

Well thats your opinion & ur entitled to that. But i dont care enough about him to be salty. But case in point, Sullys column was him voicing his opinions... Well sometimes people just don't like your opinion. Many didnt like his either. Its probably a big reason why the BN pulled his column from him. There were some articles I liked from him, but too many were just a lazy narrative written buy a guy who seemed to care more about being seen as the smartest observer of our sports teams, than simply telling a story & educating his readers. Dude comes across as a narcissist.

I dont misunderstand what a columnist is, i even said "if its someones opinion, I want it to be one that not only challenges me & educates me, but one that doesn't come across as a douche." He came across as one at the end of his work here & he probably hasn't changed. Thats my opinion, also one that seems to be shared by a lot of people.

Seems like he takes zero responsibility for why readers turned on him & for why he had his column taken away. Its everyones fault but his. But when i read sports pages, or any news in particular, I want to read facts & what the story is. And if its someones opinion I want it to be one that not only challenges me & educates me, but one that doesn't come across as a douche. For the last 5-10 years of Sully's writing, more often than not I asked myself why do I read this guys work. I wish him the best as I dont wish no ill will on anyone, but I wont miss his column, thats for sure.

I hear ya. We could all use to be as lucky as you. With my upvote on ur post, you now have 2 likes. How's that for a pointless thread?

I just woke up & saw your post & this immediately popped into my head:

It's gotten to that point where its getting harder to tell if people are joking or serious. I just can't tell anymore. The 1st part is right, but Gillislee having potential to be great? Yeah I just don't see it

And if we don't want neither? Do we just ignore the poll? If we have to choose one of them i guess Milano? Just because we could use more depth at LB. But tbh i wouldn't want either of them.

I'll watch it in a sec but you do remember Peterman's 1st game vs the Chargers last year right? Or should i link that one too? It was pretty bad, Regular season game too

When he made the comment he was replying to a post where the guy joked we should bring in Aaron Rodgers as our 3rd QB. For reference: We would never allow a guy making $30 million to be the #3...that’s ridiculous! ?

Well some of us wanted us to draft Chad, some even just for his connection to Jim. If we brought in Chad for a workout i think people would be getting the popcorn ready lol

Well in fairness the last 7th rounder to beat him was the nephew of Bills HOF Great, Jim Kelly. Idk if you've heard of him but I read that he was pretty good in his day lol. I do wish we would've drafted Chad ourselves, but I can understand why they mightve been hesitant to do so. But yeah, i could care less if he signs here, but I do like we're at least looking to continuously improve our roster, no matter if it happens or not.

Yep, i think thats how it goes... but now we really only have one. So maybe we can finally say SuperBowl?

Some of these posts just go to show the duplicit nature that comes with being a fan. Getting pissed at our staff for doing their due diligence on a 6'7 246lb athlete, drafted in the 1st round. Yet if they didn't at least take a look at him, fans in turn would be pissed we didn't bring him in for a look. I'd rather our staff took as many opportunities as they could, to find players for this team, as opposed to the opposite of not taking those chances at all. If you had to throw a bullseye on a dart board, would you want only 1 dart or would you want as many darts as possible? I don't see anything wrong at all with bringing Lynch in here for a look. It doesnt mean they plan on trading Allen & making PL the opening day starter. Theyre just bringing him in for a look, that's it. I don't get why people get so worked up over these things.

And just like that, 3 more threads today about our punter. On top of the couple threads yesterday. I'm glad you guys didn't let me down! How many more can we expect tomorrow? Over/under is set at 2

These are a couple that were sent to me awhile back from members here: http://www.cheapjerseysclearance.us.com/nike-bills-17-josh-allen-royal-blue-team-color-mens-stitched-nfl-vapor-untouchable-limited-jersey-jj-94.html https://www.dhgate.com/product/new-seattle-mariners-women-jersey-24-ken/261609781.html?m=5|ff8080814fa1c0a201505b7c77527a5b||261609781|#gw-0-3|ff80808164a288950164e6da5d731e1c The guy that sent me these said he ordered a couple from them & that the quality was nice. Alot cheaper as you can see than the 100% authentic ones. These i believe are made in China but aren't the authentic ones too? Only difference i could spot was in the 2nd link, on the back of the jersey at the top with the buffalo not being there. But on the 1st link its there, but i think the name plate letters are a tad smaller. Idk tho, could just be the picture used. But for someone on a limited budget, perhaps these will interest you.

still cool... sounds like you have a nice little collection of Bills Memorabilia there! I had a Bruce Smith & Kelly jersey but unfortunately i lost them in the fire. Same with my old Hasek jersey. I do still own a Fitzpatrick jersey tho. Who's technically the greatest QB the Bills have had in nearly 2 decades haha
