yeah that was the 1st time ive seen that play since it happened. I havent had any desire to see that. Was really hard to watch. The rest of the video is really well put together. Next year the video will be about our BILLS being CHAMPS!

In the past 20 years the US Dollar lost more than half its value. I'll have to revise that number as the pace of this has changed. But now theres a scam Amazon's stock at one point lost 90% of its value. If u saw it drop 90% you'd probably think it was a scam, i know i might've. But whoever held thru that or bought the fear, reaped the rewards. Bitcoin is down 61% this year, still up 431% since 2019 from 1/2019 to 6.22/22 S&P is down 24% this year, still up 48% since 2019 same period. Since bitcoin moves in 4 year cycles, the thinking is you make your 5-10x+ during the insane bull runs & that's more than enough to withstand the downturn. Diversification is key, education paramount, & only investing what u can afford to lose is wise, as its a highly speculative asset class. It remains to be seen if BTC will succeed in its intended vision & there's many scams in the space & sensible regulation is desperately needed/wanted. But Bitcoin has outperformed every other asset since its creation. Gold, the DOW, beans, socks u name it. I dont look at crypto as currencies per se because most arent intended to be currencies but as digital assets, tokenized real world assets (as the world is moving more digital & not less) or investing in software & AI & networks. Its such a diverse space its difficult to generalize what it is haha.

Yep, all about the bitcoin halving & 4 year macro cycle. The downside exacerbated by the greater global macroeconomic situation. When your 'safe' investments in the S&P or Nasdaq tank, you know fake digital ponzi's will tank even more haha. I'm a big investor & crypto-enthusiast but a cleansing was needed. Evidently there's still more downside to go, as Shiba-Inu pumped 30% today. People havent felt enough pain yet if theyre still buying memecoins. I believe its going to take 1-2 years for our current crisis to play out. TLaw's btc value per usd this season will be dirt cheap, but his 2022 salary could 3-5x in the future if/when its USD value goes back to ATH's (like it should). Tlaw makes millions from endorsements i imagine. Millions in cash so i can see why he took the risk with his salary. Hope it pays off for him bcuz it'd mean we all went to the moon together

Really does seem everything in life is a ponzi lol

Awesome. They said the same thing about James Cook. So we drafted 2 Deebo Samuels? SICK!

Pre-Draft i wanted us to either move up with our picks since we had few roster spots OR i wanted us to trade back down & accumulate picks for NEXT YEAR, ala the Pats during their dynasty. I get moving back down, but instead of getting a 6th back this year, couldn't we have received a 2023 5th back instead? Aren't current draft picks usually the more coveted pick, since u can pick now as opposed to waiting a season? I thought it made more sense for futures next year. But now this year i suppose Beane could draft these extra players thinking other teams might need & want to trade for them after the draft? Just trying to make sense out of it since we lost 3 of our draft picks last season & surely Beane learned from that

For those who missed it. Full 3 minute segment

Yep. We've all heard the Cam comparisons for years. Cam was so good he earned the nickname: Superman Then injuries caught up to him. I think what happened to Cam should serve as a warning to us. Doesnt matter how super your QB is, u need to protect your franchise qb period. Either with improving the guys around him or by making sure Allen protects himself out there. I think we've definitely seen attention paid to both of those

Truer words have never been spoken. But to make matters worse, chickens don't even have fingers, so what are you really getting? Another thing, when given the chance to eat meat off the bone or not, always go for the bone, always.

AWESOME!!!

Couldnt agree more with your post. Case in point think of the Pats dynasty. How often during their run were they trading up higher into the 1st round? They frankly did the opposite if i remember right, frequently trading down to get more picks. Because as you said, those rookie deals are important as it gets harder & harder to manage the payroll

especially in light of us picking up Crowder. CB seems even more likely in rd 1

Well i think we all can agree that if Beane really wanted to address the position, he'd simply bring back Duke Williams. But he hasn't so idk what that says about him. We'll see an elevated role from McKenzie but also Kumerow, lets not forget him. Howard & Knox will soak up some targets. Hopefully we can draft a burner wr who can step into a role on offense right away, ala Tyreek. Some underneath/high percentage plays that a rookie can learn quick but that go for YAC. I'm not too concerned though. Beane will figure out something. Plus with Josh Allen, he makes everyone around him better. Robert Foster cough... he can do a lot with a little

When Case played in Houston back in college, i thought he had a really good arm & projected well to the pro's. It hasn't really worked out for him but he can definitely win us games & has a better arm than Barkley or some of the other options. Beane has been methodical this offseason. Checking off the needs one by one. Cross backup QB off your list, all for a 7th. GO BILLS!

Edmunds issues are instinctual imo. His recognition to a casual observer always seems a step late. So the runner gets that extra yard on a run, or Tremaine is just out of position to make a substantial play. He's just kinda there, where you're hoping his big frame & wingspan do the trick i guess lol.

i love Fitz & i get the appeal, but ideally you'd want to run the same offense with both QB's & idk if i can see Fitz in that mode. That was one thing i liked a lot with MItch, that continuity.

lol yeah. Well i saw dline & Jones & got all excited. Looking for Jones in all the wrong places... jonesing even

anyone have some good insights on him?

what the hell. I saw on twitter that our IDL was set with Settle & Jones & i was like OMG WE GOT CHANDLER JONES LETS GO!!!! and i come here and see its some guy from Carolina named DaQuan yep GO BILLS!

I see a bit of Robert Woods when i see Gabe. Just a solid dependable wr who shows up to make the catch when u need him. A wr you can trust! I dont know what was the reason the coaching staff was slow to give Gabe playing time, but just like Woods i hope we make a push to sign Gabe long term. Dudes a baller

yeah the Happy Ending was a nice touch!

who knows, maybe we'll have the zedicron variant of covid this season & Star will opt out again & we'll have to deal with him for even longer lol. GO BILLS

All fair & valid points. My only response is that the 2000 Ravens D & 85 Bears D will continue being remembered for the role their groups had in winning when it mattered, instrumental while our D will live on the collective pages on twobillsdrive here & who folded & collapsed when it mattered.

So many BILLS fans have reacted to Brady's retirement with the words: "As a BILLS fan...." that twitters algorithm picked up on it & now its trending lol If the news is true, great career, now we just need Mahomes to retire

During the Hard Knocks where Anthony Lynn was head coach of the Chargers, the camera showed Lynn in his office & he had a shelf of playbooks from the BILLS there. So i'm guessing they keep them
