Chris Simms "Josh Allen talks technique"
RochesterLifer replied to SDubills's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I do not believe this is a "minor" point. I agree with you, emphatically. In a quality learning environment, self-critical thinking is imperative and accountability is a key to improvement. As much as I (we) like Allen, we all know he must learn and improve - quite a bit. He obviously has the physical tools. His willingness to admit and own his mistakes and growth opportunities are what will propel him to excellence as an NFL quarterback. It also is what will make him a credible leader in a locker room full of alpha males. In this way, I think he is remarkably like McDermott. Color me excited. -
ROCKPILE REVIEW - The Hopeless Optimist

Well stated Mr. Shaw. Drop the mic and drink the beer I have waiting for you. Fun times are upon us. -
Rueben Foster injured at (edit) Redskins OTA
RochesterLifer replied to PromoTheRobot's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I feel silly for asking. But why do we wish Ill will on Rueben Foster? -
I try to be a positive fan, being respectful of others. However, anything that embarrasses or harms the Jets makes me happy.

Is Beane The Best GM We Have Had Since Bill Polian?

Old age brings thick skin. Not a problem. -
Is Beane The Best GM We Have Had Since Bill Polian?
RochesterLifer replied to Irv's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
It's too early to make any calls on Beane or McDermott. All they have done so far is take out the trash. Success will be defined by how they rebuild with all the resources currently at their disposal. Having said that, I think they cleaned out the team very well and am optimistic that, in two years, this speculation will prove itself o be true. -
Tyrod Taylor has 'nothing but love' for Buffalo
RochesterLifer replied to wppete's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I love the final paragraph of the article: "People can say what they want about Tyrod Taylor as a quarterback, but in terms of a human being, there is no argument. Taylor is a first-class guy through and through." Absolutely. And for that, I will always be proud and happy he quarterbacked my team.- 167 replies

Lorax - should he be extended?
RochesterLifer replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
The easiest part about this decision is his leadership and team-first focus. If his play declines (a real possibility at his age), we know he will shift to a mentor role and continue to contribute. Bring this guy back until he proves he can't do it anymore. -
2018 Head Coach Rankings
RochesterLifer replied to 26CornerBlitz's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I love reading this board. It feeds my Bills habit on a daily basis. However, idiocy is sometimes difficult to tolerate. This is one of the dumbest posts I have seen. -
NFL fines Jerry Hughes "unsportsmanlike conduct"
RochesterLifer replied to WideNine's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I actually feel there is no defense of Hughes for his behavior after last week's game. I don't care if someone called you a naughty name. Chasing an official, or any humanbeing, screaming and threatening irrationally, is inexcusable. Typical, entitled and arrogant athlete. Jerry is a great, hardworking player. I love what he brings to the Bills. But, he really needs to grow the hell up. -
While I agree with the sentiment of the post and ridiculing the Patsies is always fun, is anyone going to acknowledge that Costa Rica is in Central America and not The Carribean?

Well done. I couldn't have said it better.

I am not against the idea of committing to Tyrod. His improvement opportunities are undeniable and this board certainly calls them out loudly. I worry, however, that he is deemed by many to be "inadequate" in comparison to Rodgers and Brady. That is just silly. I agree that he is not going to the Hall of Fame. He has proven that we can win with him. He has proven that he can win with weak supporting casts. He has proven to be mentally and emotionally strong. He is an excellent leader. He has unique tools for the position and we have benefitted from his performance. He is one of the reasons we are in the playoffs. If we can do better, great. I guarantee you that we can do a lot worse. Please don't lose sight of that.

Other than my season tickets, I have no connection with the Bills...no insider knowledge, no friendships with employees, nothing. However, I have been a fan since 1970 and feel plenty empowered to use the word "we" when discussing "my" Buffalo Bills. Just my view on it. FWIW, I believe WE are going to roll the Dolphins tomorrow.

Given all the hateful negativity this board regularly spews out, I do not understand your problem with DD. This conversation, while possibly (probably) fictional, is so much more enjoyable than "TT sucks!", "Vlad sucks!", "Fire Rico!", "McBeane gave the house away!". If you don't like it, just don't click...please.

Honestly, this is fun reading. It beats the hell out of posters who think they're smart by constantly running players ("TT has a boo boo on his knee") down. Also, DD, when you speak of contingency planning, I understand and respect the logic of uncertainty. For fandom entertainment, I look forward to these posts.
-
Of course they are attacks - snarky, obnoxious comments from internet tough guys. They are the sort of responses that drag down the enjoyability of this forum. BTW - informed or not, DD's post make for fun reading and interesting thoughts. If that is "hot garbage", please pour me a bowl.

Top five qb in Bills history
RochesterLifer replied to Chadwick Bay Chad's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I think Flutie may be the most overrated QB in our history. He did very little, but represent himself well. I would drop him from this list and put Frank Reich at #5. While just a back up, he had performances that changed our history. 1. Jim Kelly 2. Jack Kemp 3. Joe Ferguson (does not get the respect he deserves) 4. Daryle Lamonica 5. Frank Reich -
This statement is so meritless and negative that I burst out laughing when I read it. Mularkey, Donohoe, Gailey and Nix have zero impact on the Bills' future opportunity for success. Whaley's work (good or bad) is being erased quickly. There is nothing about what has happened over the past 18 years that will affect the Bills in 2020. I hope Beane and McDermott are of the quality we've been wishing for. Unlike your quote however, I am humble enough to to know that I cannot see the future.
