I picture him erratically throwing people out the exit off his back foot

I’m not even sure it was thaaaat oblivious to give it a shot. And I largely give cam a hard time. contrary to this thread, it did not appear to actually be first class that he was speaking with. He was trying to move from row 3-4 of coach to the first row of coach so he’d have the wall in front of him instead of another seat. Not sure what they are swinging on that upgrade that day but I’d venture a lot less than $1500 and if somebody was expensing the ticket they might think twice about putting some crisp bills in their pocket. I’m on the tall side but I’d think twice before turning down (a weeks pay/a free vacation/season tickets/insert appealing alternative of your choice) to give up just the extra knee space. If I paid for first class on my own- obviously that’s a thin proposal to just cover my already incurred expenses and maybe a nice meal on top

I get that cam has an assistant. I’m also very well seasoned with travel. Heck, that’s probably why it was a bit nails on the chalkboard-y to read. You may as well be talking to EII about your adventures on the canals of Illinois right now ? Perhaps it’s a regional, or generational or some other thing but from this side it’s reading a bit tone deaf and then assuming I don’t know about either of those things feels like doubling down on it. At its simplest, I’ve just never referred to any of my team as the help, and never will. Ill chalk it it up as a misunderstanding or agree to disagree. No biggie.

Its always a small celebration when I land in that row

Obviously he should’ve planned differently if it was absolutely vital. It’s not like he freaked out- dude offered a person in a slightly more spacious seat the change in his pocket, which wasn’t a small sum... Once denied he went back to his seat. I’m not sure the “back of the bus” and “needs to hire better help” attitude is hitting the mark you expect. In a thread about Cam, you are coming off as the pretentious one ?

It looks like he was just asking to move to the front row of the coach section

You can watch their routes without ever seeing the qb or ball, frankly. Brady is an impact but it’s not impossible to look at the guys

Way to go and “Courtney love” EIi’s most salient post to date...

You can compare if you have time and want to. Various things like physical measurables, catch rate on well thrown balls, footwork, so on and so forth are apples to apples even if stat lives aren’t

I’ll say guys that talk smack about the last team coming in are likely to do the same going out. As for talent... he is a good player but at one of our qbs weak points. If josh takes a big step, he’s a great resource. If not, he could be a sore spot. ‘‘Tis the risk of a pickup like this. Clay never got utilized by Tyrod in our quest to throw between the hashes. Josh isn’t tyrod though.

Right. but even being below that average conversion rate, one would assume many of those would still be mathematically acceptable decisions. If I gave you 4-1 odds on calling a coin flip, even with a slightly weighted coin you’ll probably make some money. I’d assume the bills are using their own research which I would assume is more personalized and not just using the NYT bot. it also ignores my point that I’m a fan of the underdog taking extra shots. If we are overmatched in talent (and with the dead money we created no other argument can be made)... I kind of prefer hoping they convert 1-2 above average in a game and steal a win here and there even if it means missing them all in another week and a 7 point loss becomes a 14.

Im not arguing they were good at this. Just wondering aloud if being bad precludes it from being an ok decision. Would they have fared better punting? And substantially enough so that it outweighs my own preference to at least take a shot if you are a talent deficient team? There’s little I hate more than grinding out 17-13 games on the way to 6-10. At some level I’d rather take the shots and risk a few blowouts in exchange for stealing a few wins. If if we were a loaded team that just couldn’t do it for due to some quantifiable weakness, then I’d be apt to be more conservative...

Do you think our team fares much different that way though? If not, I’d rather take the shot, honestly.

Your take is totally reasonable. Seymour had that eye surgery that was going to be a break through to being a legit starter though too. It’s one of those things where they are all here because they are wildly filled with potential. I’m not saying any of the 18 class are junk, but that it’s so early to judge. We flop this year, fire McD and suddenly they may be scattered around the league and mismatched to scheme here. It can be a delicate road was my point, not hating on any player.

Proehl and mccloud gone Everyone else day 3 as a question mark phillips 3rd in the rotation at best for what may be his whole rookie deal none are bad picks but it wouldn’t take a lot to break badly. Likewise a few could step up big time. Especially with wins at the top. That’s the mystery of it all. We like them right up until we don’t. Hopefully a few hold it off for a long time

I have a sneaking suspicion was that he was hoping tre would “feel it in the morning” not that he would never walk again. I could be waaaaay off base there but I think it was aggressively dumb more than anything deliberately career ending. That said, I doubt the kids at this hospital appreciate the gesture any less, and ultimately that’s what the thread might be best served to remember, instead of another tearing the dude down.

I will likewise nominate you to donate $50 or go away im not giving the guy the key to the city or throwing a parade but the dude just paid for a nurse for a year. Or some new equipment. To help sick kids in buffalo. Good for him and I’d gladly shake his hand and say thanks for it, despite his history playing football against Buffalo

I think you should donate $100 to them ASAP. You know, to prove that point.

Other than the pats would it be all that out of line to say we likely have 2 bad teams and 1 that could possibly break through and be decent? dolphins look no better than giants/skins. Jets seem unlikely to make a stride. I think we have a shot but are like a less proven Dallas. Unless you are putting NE as head and shoulders above philly it’s kind of “meh” to argue the NFCE as worse

At the most 10. 11 feels like “I have a bunch of interchangeable guys at the bottom” which means you do less not more to protect them

You think 6 WR and 5 TE? id guess we keep 9 not 11 pass catchers
