Before the draft, I thought Rosen had a quitter's mentality. At the first sign of struggle, he mentally folds - and fast. There's nothing about his rookie season that has made me change my opinion. On the other hand, I thought guys like Allen and Mayfield were fighters. They will keep firing, won't quit. My issue with Allen is that he'd end up being a throwback to the 90s where he'd throw for over 4,000 yards, barely at a 60% completion rate. I didn't know what Mayfield would do because I fully expected the Browns to send out Tyrod every game if he could walk.

Can you imagine the controversy if Foles pulls off another miracle Super Bowl run?

Retaining Barkley as the backup is a no-brainer to me if Daboll is the OC next season. If I'm the Bills, I try not to outthink the room on this one. With the abandon Allen plays with, it's likely Barkley will see some playing time.

The 2018 Patriots team reminds me a lot of the 1996 Bills.

He is the textbook definition of a system quarterback. He thrives in an Andy Reid system for whatever reason. Pedestrian in any other system.

If you don't need a truck and absolutely want to buy a brand new truck, you may want to wait until 2020 market year (Summer 2019). That's going to be a big year for that segment.

Perhaps they had very valid or personal reasons to decline an interview for an opening in a small fraternity of 32 jobs like it. You'd hate to think ego was the reason.

I don't think his on the field success was enough to mitigate his personality. I always got the impression he was NFL John Harbaugh before John Harbaugh - people eventually are exhausted by the personality. You can be a curmudggeon if you win titles. You can't be Bill Belichick or Gregg Popovich without the rings.

Don't stop at Crossman if you're looking at new coaches. Primary responsibility of a coach:

There is a financial motive on a few sides. Nobody wants to be sued for lack of a better word "executing" a living will and then the grieving family files a suit saying "hey, that's not what our father wanted!" even though dad signed a document attesting to her wants a decade earlier. As far as the hospital is concerned, this is a bell you most likely ring only once, so it's good to trust...but verify. In some families there are a lot of shenanigans around the estate of soon to be departed family members. Some people have a lot of financial motivations in keeping dad alive, others need him dead, etc. The true colors of your family are only ever revealed when your mom and dad pass away. It goes either of two ways: It's peaceful and chill or it's the legal equivalent of the bank robbery scene in HEAT.

I'd agree they'd be the closest NFC franchise to the Bills as a franchise that just never seems to put it all together. To the plus, they've had more capital investment with a very nice stadium. They were frustrating in the 90s when they went to the playoffs six times with all that talent (Sanders, Moore, Porcher, Spielman) and still couldn't get over the hump.

It doesn't count against cap space but I'd buy some new coaches for the OL, WR and ST at minimum. Need far better teachers there. There's a big difference between the shop teacher who makes the awesome work bench and the ones who have students who make awesome work benches. You need more of the latter, less of the former which I suspect Castillo, Robiskie and Crossman are.

They were 100% right on that one.

I remember the days when Fox was terrified that no one was going to watch Die Hard because Bruce Willis was a "comedian" and it was Alan Rickman's first movie. Die Hard was originally pegged as the sequel to Commando. Imagine that.

I thought he was a 21st Century Jeff George (canon for an arm but it's a shotgun, not a rifle) before the draft but I've been pleasantly surprised with his rookie year. He has football "smarts" and I think that's going to make the difference. The team certainly seems to respond to him which is a good thing to see.

The NFL would have an absolute goldmine in apparel sales with this idea.

I personally like these somewhat randomly selected former Bills "leading the charge." The team should let any fan who has a jersey of said player into the stadium for free.

If the Democrats hoist Hillary up again for a 2020 run I'll be convinced politics is professional wrestling and the Democrats are simply the paid "heels" in the story. It is surprising that the Democrats will have had four years to find and craft a superior and moderate candidate to Trump and they still have a bunch of never will be's. Joe Biden? Really? He's as old and as big of a liar and story teller as Trump is. Elizabeth Warren is a flake. America hates the Clintons to such a degree that most felt they had no choice but to vote for Trump. Bloomberg doesn't have the energy to run for President. Nobody cares about Kamala Harris.

NARC If you sent me to Colombia, I would have won the entire drug war in under 60 minutes. ?

You'd think these guys in this era of #metoo, video everywhere and endless examples of nothing good happening after midnight in bars/hotels/casinos, they'd exercise a hell of a lot more situational awareness and stay the hell home and do whatever they are going to do...there. If you're making millions of dollars or on track to be a multi-millionaire, you don't need to be in these places. Ever.

I'm still firing Castillo, Robiskie....and I'm adding Crossman to the list.

Packers are in trouble. They have so much money tied up in Rodgers that they have little room for failure in the draft. He goes down and they are a Top 3 pick in the draft. That's the margin.

The parents of a co-worker lived in Estonia pre WWII. When the Germans invaded, they made his father fight for the Wehrmacht - or else. When the Soviets retook the Baltics, the German Army abandoned these Estonian residents and the Soviets made these guys now fight for them - all the way to Berlin. After the war, the Soviets send the survivors to the gulags. A lucky few manage to make it to the Allied lines and immigrate to the United States.

I never used that message board. Historically, I'm probably 99% affiliated with TBD, 1% with BR. I haven't visited the official site all year. This is my site for Bills breaking news, content and opinion. Nobody breaks the Bills news faster than the fans on this site.

I love that they choose a picture of a handgun WITH suppressor as if they all come with suppressors...because you know, it's easy to get one, especially on those 2 for 1 Black Friday sales.
