  1. Athletes are nothing more than entertainers. They can protest all they want. Kneeling/sitting/stretching during the National Anthem is of huge disrespect. The display on Sunday was nothing more than privileged millionaires throwing a tantrum because a privileged billionaire said some mean things. I don't even think anyone remembers what the original protest was. As for being a mouth breather, I am college educated, live in one of the most liberal/progressive cities in the nation, vote straight libertarian and am practically an anarchist in my philosophies on how government should operate, and I turned off the TV and removed my Bills gear at home and at work. I've put up with 3-13 seasons of Rob Johnson and never felt so apathetic as I did on Sunday. The product is unwatchable, the league has been mired in scandal for years, the health effects (and coverups) of CTE are now fully out in the open. My sons will never play football, and I will probably never watch the Bills or any other NFL team again. The death spiral was already there, this was the final push to irrelevance. No I will not be posting again. Yes, I realize no one cares. Good day.
  2. Some in Baltimore are thinking this year could be a better D than 2000.
  3. Let's see, where's Brian Billick on that list? Took him 2 years to win a SB. 8-8, 12-4 (SB) What about John Harbaugh's first 5 years with the Ravens? 11-5, 9-7, 12-4,12-4 (thanks for the Drop Lee Evans), 10-6 (SB) Apparently the common thread is Ray Lewis so let's pick him up.
  4. How soon after the Seattle game before they drug test Dareus? Over/Under on him failing?
  5. I'm trying to determine if that guy made it up, but considering how most professional athletes are spoiled brats, I don't know. Perhaps Doug was actually asking about an assistant manager position?
  6. How about the one with Doug Marrone sticking around to clean up the theater.
  7. Since we seem to beat ourselves most of the time, here are my Most Loathed Coaches: Gregg Williams Mike Mulkarky Dick Jauron Chan Gailey Perry Fewell Doug Marrone next up Rex Ryan...
  8. I am pretty sure I have a problem.
  9. Ravens, other than me my whole family lives in Baltimore. The sad part is that even though I do follow and root for the Ravens (when not playing the Bills), and enjoyed both of their SB wins...didn't mean as much to me as Fitz and Gailey beating the Patriots.
  10. To answer your second question, They didn't want Carpenter to kick a FG from the Miami 34.. Score was 19-14, and 3 points would have made it 22-14 so a full 1 possession game. Dolphins figured a 3rd and 14 would not result in a TD.
  11. Bills should trade EJ To the Jets ASAP so he has time to learn the offense and get on the field. It's just the boost in confidence our secondary needs!
  12. We're just ~10 starters, a couple coordinators, and some leadership away from making the playoffs guys! Why is everyone so down?
  13. The guy that tied Joe Montana's post-season stats in his SB winning year? He's "servicable"?
  14. The whole family watched it last night. Good stuff!
  15. Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.
  16. I agree 100%, turning the first winning season with the Bills in a decade probably elevated his stock (even if the last win was a scrimmage, and better coaching would have had the Bills at 11-5 or 12-4...). When you go out guns blazing people remember. When you're thought of as a quitter, people remember. I've seen the hotshot execs in the corporate world do this sort of thing, take a company from terrible to mediocre and move on. But if you trash the place on the way out I don't care if you're the CEO or the janitor, that's going to follow you to the next interview. I'm also fairly sure that the owners have a long memory. This is one of the most exclusive clubs in the world. They talk for sure. He'll be lucky to get an O-Line job. He cost himself at least $4M, and he may not work in the NFL again. If he does, you can bet he won't be getting any golden parachute type clauses in his (relatively) small contract.
  17. Rex Ryan, never heard of him, is he a new up and comer? IBTL
  18. Peyton was playing on Defense and Special Teams? I was pretty sure that the Bills held him to 0TDs, and 2 INT. The Broncos got a W, Peyton got his consecutive TD streak broken.
  19. Anyone that's watched more than 4 offensive plays from the Bills knows our entire playbook. Handoff, checkdown, take a bad sack, slide for neg. yards.
