34/17 Bills of course. We are at least twice as good.

Reminds me of the Jets getting rid of Darnold.

I think they are one and the same.

The game has really slowed down for Aaron. I thought that was a good thing. Guess not.

Im heading over to Gang Green for some laughs.

I think Aaron is ready for the wax museum.

Whats Woody gonna do? Maybe he can wring his own neck. Would be a good move.

If by #1 we mean Allen's go to guy I wouldn't be completely surprised if that was in Keon's future. For a number of years Julian Edelman, a slot receiver, was Brady's go to guy and saw a ton of balls. Before Edelman it was Wes Welker, another slot. If by #1 we mean the outside receiver to the weak side of the line opposite an eligible tight end or either receiver at the end of the line in multiple receiver sets (say 2x2 or 3x1) that's a different assertion. Keon is not a dedicated #1 outside X receiver imo, meaning he is not going to take the significant majority of his snaps outside. Actually not many of today's best receivers do eg Davante Adams. Neither is Keon one of those "slot only" guys obviously. He is going to wind up lining up both outside and inside on or off the line depending upon the purpose underlying the play call. The exact percentage breakdown has yet to be determined and will be influenced by a number of factors some of which are unknown and unknowable at this time. I wouldn't be at all surprised if it wound up a roughly 50/50 proposition. For those who think the slot belongs to Shakir, his snaps too will be divided in some proportion. He can play some on the boundary.There are two types of slot receiver generally. Some are fast and quick, some are big and strong. We know what group Keon falls in. And there is nothing preventing the Bills from using two slots, like the championship Cardinals often did. Boldin lined up inside and in so doing he benefitted from having more room to operate in the middle of the field. The payoff, in part, was that he managed to be one of the games best YAC receivers, even though he was slow. Coleman reminded me of Boldin a lot when he took off for big yardage after the catch.

I don’t think he is a # 1 receiver if what we mean by that is a dedicated X (not to say he couldn’t line up on the boundary at times). Pickens lines up outside about 75% of the time but he ran a 4.47. Not sure it matters Keon not being a true X (except to the extent that it means we still need to find one long term). He could still serve as the go to guy. Larry Fitzgerald and Anquan Boldin both worked out of the slot and both are in the HOF.

He has a lot to learn and he needs to get better. But for me what I feel I've seen at this level of play is the unequivocal confirmation that in terms of physical ability the potential is there for sure. He appears to have successfully negotiated the big gap between college ball and the pros, which is what you rarely know for sure when you draft but absolutely need to see. And he's done it quickly. Add to that his good attitude and what I suspect is above average maturity (for a 20 year old) and intelligence and the ceiling is high for him as an impactful player.

There are many. Glenn Greenwald, Breaking Points, Secular Talk, the Intercept, Judge Napolitano etc… these may be considered left leaning or libertarian but no doubt there are plenty more on the right as well eg Matt Walsh. Now of course these are not organizations like the Times, Post or Wall Street Journal. They don’t have huge newsrooms with lots of reporters investigatory or otherwise. The good ones do have reliable sources of information and typically have informed input provided by knowledgeable commentators. Their format competes not with network news but with the panels and discussion forums hosted by the network anchors. One problem with mainstream media is that what gets produced has ultimately pretty much to be in line with editorial or corporate policy, and it is therefore more often an effort to persuade than to inform. MSNBC shills for a Democratic administration. Fox for a Republican administration. The primary objective being to persuade often leads to a corruption of the actual factual situation, sometimes resulting in an outright misrepresentation. One of the things that alternative media does is point out the discrepancy between the official narrative and the reality when such is the case.

Mainstream media is not journalism, its just a bunch of old folks influencers and paid shills doing their master's bidding. Real alternative media are not the tabloids referred to by the OP. They are indépendant platforms and much more credible as sources than are Fox or MSNBC. Mainstream media will either change or go broke.

Regardless of who becomes president I think the well funded special interests will win, People be damned.

He's no good lol

No, not to my knowledge. It was not meant to be taken seriously, not even as speculation. The idea was that NE would send KC what they need (and for virtually no return) to better KC's chances against us, "us" being a division rival. I should say though I am surprised they would just give away somebody who can rush the passer. Sure he was probably unhappy not getting many opportunities to show his stuff on the Pats in a year where he needs to impress but for nothing?

I think NE did it to spite us. Seriously the guy blows hot and cold but when on he can get sacks in bunches. Unbelievable trade for KC considering what they gave up and their need for someone to rush the passer.

I agree that Coleman is not your prototypical X receiver even if he has some, but not all, of the same traits. He is tall and he has good ball skills. But of course he is not a burner and never will be. That is the difference skill set wise between him and Calvin Johnson. So I agree that the Bills would do well to draft and develop that guy assuming he is not already in the system. Maybe sign Coop to a two year deal (although I think he will probably be looking for three). Having a guy like that will only make Keon that much better. Can you imagine this O with a BTJ? Sometimes I think the #1 / #2 terminology can be a bit misleading even if it is often more or less accurate. According to that thinking Fitz was the #1 and go to guy (though working from the slot after Arian's moved him inside) and Boldin was the #2. To me it's better to acknowledge that each player was dominant within his assigned role in the Cards offence. Each one made the other a lot better and both are in the HOF. its very gratifying to see the growth of the Bills WR corps. Just speaking for myself the thing that I find just as gratifying is the work that Beane and Kromer have done with the O-line. I feel as though I have been waiting a long time to finally see that.

Total nightmare for Hawks fans.

Good play design by hawks

Beat a very good corner.

It did.

Brown a huge man taking two guys out at the second level. It doesnt get better.

Coop thinks hes back in Cleveland

he's a bum lol
