Throw out #mafia for the other pro sports team and mention wings, and you “really get buffalo?” what if he wraps his truck and plants some trees downtown ala Rex losman? I don’t know that this tweet is anything beyond entry level checking the box of being aware of buffalo

Doug Whaley Has Landed a New Job
NoSaint replied to 26CornerBlitz's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Yup. and honestly, I’m assuming this is a nice 6 figure job that allows him to be around the sport while not having it crush an outside life. I know we assume the dream is to be at the top but it seems like it could be a pretty nice niche he found. -
Eric Moulds... What happened to him?

I suspect your the only one because it’s a ridiculous “stat” -
Thoughts about the Bills Official Website
NoSaint replied to Billsfanatixs's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
As a fan that interacts with bills related content daily and year round.... it’s been years since I’ve been to the site on purpose and probably 15 years since I’ve had regular visits (say visiting more than an article every couple weeks) id challenge the Op to define who he thinks the target audience is, and who he thinks the actual current audience is -
3-man QB competitions of Buffalo yore
NoSaint replied to Buffalo86's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Generally, I’m sure the goal is to roll with him uninterrupted. And even if he doesnt start day 1, I’ll maintain the others really aren’t any real competition. No one in our front office is seriously considering mccarron or peterman being “the guy.” McCarron is like your spare change jar, and peterman a lottery ticket- they are real but you don’t really expect them to truly change you financial planning. -
Martavis Bryant....... Suspension Looming?
NoSaint replied to H2o's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Come on John.... you used a mediocre example to try to make your point and knock other posters. even if we throw away the reports and go with the idea that beane wasn’t interested.... what is it that you are thinking he knew that other guys paid to run teams didn’t know? Occams shaver is that we were interested in taking the risk but we’re more interested in risking Benjamin’s knees at a slight premium than Bryant’s decision making. Raiders likewise were interested in the risk and simply were on the unlucky end of it so far (though it didn’t cost them terribly much)... and last year didn’t pan out all that great for KB either. It’s what teams do- take some risks that you can’t guarantee the outcome of. -
Martavis Bryant....... Suspension Looming?
NoSaint replied to H2o's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
The irony of your post of course being that allegedly the guys running the team were also interested. -
Its below average WR1 money, and I’d guess he’s among a very small number that are definitive #1 WRs for their team getting paid less than the top TE and RB on their team. hes a value player, generally speaking, even though I’m not a huge fan of his. He should produce, but I don’t think he’s a true game changer. If spending big free agent WR dollars, I’m not sure the big slow guy with bum knees and occasional weight issues is where I’m backing up the brinks truck.

I’m guessing it’s more than a “smarts” issue -
3-man QB competitions of Buffalo yore
NoSaint replied to Buffalo86's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Who really thinks this is a 3 man competition? It might be a stretch to call it a 2 man. Realistically it’s allen against himself. -
Your bench mark is what, about 5-5.5% of the cap? 10 years ago there was the dockery contract at I mentioned at 6.5%, Hutchinson signed the same average two years early so a much higher percentage, faneca signed for 8m per year one year later, Jahri Evans the next year... you have to go back over a decade, at least, for guards to fit that bill and it gets hard to pull numbers vs cap to check the going rate. most of the time in these talks the meteoric rise in the cap explains the bulk of the perception

Reggie Bush Awarded 12 Mil from Rams

It was negligent. Absolutely embarrassing (and sad) to see happen. -
Lamar Jackson Lining Up at Other Positions During Practice
NoSaint replied to Gugny's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
But as a guy that I believe will be limited in learning his 500 plays, I would personally rather he learn 20 extra pass plays. also, to run 10 gimmicks he needs to know several non-gimmicks off the formation. Put him at wr and suddenly in order to throw a few option passes and an end around or two he needs at least a basic route tree to be a threat. Practice catching, etc... If he’s third string so be it, but if he’s one snap away from needing to run the offense week one then I want him learning his position- which I anticipate being a challenge without the distract -

Or the mind to learn a full qb package PLUS 2-3 other positions in gimmick roles -
What If Rex Never Was Hired & Schwartz was The HC ?
NoSaint replied to T master's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I suspect we would have had a better playoff shot, but as with any hypothetical it comes down to what would’ve happened at QB. If given rexs year 1 roster, I think he could’ve potentially made it though. -
Saw an article today about how hard his schedule had been and that he was spending more time alone when he could

Mental health can be a real tough one. Having fun and being satisfied can be two very different things and sometimes you see it get harder the better your life is. Imagine you are living your absolute dream and you are still struggling with those thoughts, for instance. As an an outsider I can’t say much about what he was dealing with as an individual but will say life’s often harder than it looks.
