I’ll add to this. From an ADA in Buffalo. Open container while driving is a non-moving violation. 0 points. 99.9% of the time will only result in a ticket for about $100.

Nearly 60% of college players are black. Nearly 70% of the NFL are black. When thousands work through the highest levels of the sport (NCAA, NFL) you should see more representation on the coaching and FO side just by the sheer proportions. There was a time when black kids weren’t QB’s because “they weren’t the most qualified”. Women see the same problem. Most HC for women’s sports are men. It’s not that there aren’t enough qualified women. That is borderline insulting.

One good move I like in this is removing restrictions from assistance to interview as coordinators. It was silly to begin with DC/OC is clearly a promotion from DL, CB, QB etc. coach.

Right. OK, improving draft stock seems a bit like over correcting too far. But in an African American dominated sport the lack of racial diversity is appalling. This may be the wrong solution, but instead of people whining about it, what is the proper route. Because “just hire the most qualified regardless of race” is not working, and historically has never worked in America.

He was in his twilight for sure, but he did play on a 6-10 Houston team with David Carr as his QB. I never realized that we took that pick and grabbed Kyle Williams. 2007 the Titans were 10-6 with Kerry Collins/Vince Young. Surprisingly Moulds had the second most receptions from the WR Corp with a whopping 32. He retired after. He was toast. It’s like the dude chased bad QBs.

RB's are the fastest guys on the field most of the time. Ours both ran 4.6's at the combine. It is going to hurt your rankings for over speed of your starters at skill positions. Name: 40 time (average) Allen: 4.75 (4.93) Diggs: 4.46 (4.48) Beasley: 4.54 (4.48) Brown: 4.34 (4.48) Singletary: 4.66 (4.49) Moss: 4.65 (4.49) Knox: 4.85 (4.7) Kroft: 4.67 (4.7)

I’ll add on here. I was understanding of the trade. Not terrible, not great. I have a mild issue with it. Our WR Corp was bad. I’m not sure we had the luxury to trade Sammy at the time. I feel bad for Watkins. I wasn’t aware of his history. There’s a lot of baggage. His lizard king, demon inhabiting, world is flat views aren’t why he spiraled in Buffalo. It just makes him a super weird dude.His spiral is because he has a number of life changing experiences that seem like they were never dealt with until he was on his own. Not terribly uncommon. I feel for the kid. I hope he feels whole again. Our front office does preach process, “come to Buffalo and be the best version of yourself”, and family, but they've seemed to turn their back on players with some serious baggage in pretty short order. Which is fine to a certain extent. It’s professional sports and my boss isn’t cutting me slack for my baggage. But my boss isn’t taking the opportunity to tell the world that he can help me do anything other than pay my bills.

Everybody should write simply so the masses can understand it. Everybody should also be concise. Here is the big kicker that seems to be missed on the OP. Everybody should have a GD point (and get to it quickly) that is conveyed cleanly.

My favorite part about this new post is that he rants about what he meant the original to be about, but still provides us with no real information or summary. A simple "Bishop was glad RJ started that game because A, B, C" would go a long way and have kept the other thread open. Then he makes the same exact mistake twice. At this point I am not listening to it out of principal until the OP provides even the tiniest piece of insight. Act like a brat, get treated like a brat.

I am definitely too busy/lazy at the moment, but you can't adjust the Bills number and not the rest of the league, and state ranking change. They are what they are compared to the league, and everybody gets the bump or nobody does. They might jump 2 spots at best, but they also might just stay the same. Even when accounting for "adjusted" numbers across the league, Buffalo does not see a ton of movement in rankings compared to other franchises. Buffalo does not jump after adjusting everybody between 23 and 16: Indy Arizona Carolina Chargers Cleveland And is close with since exact numbers aren't provided, with: Detroit NYJ

I mean, Jimmy G had 15 more passes, 7 less drops on the season than Josh, and threw for 900 more yards. JG completed 69% of his passes and was top half in the league in total completed passes. They were incredibly efficient through the air to say the least.

I hope that it is all or nothing for the NFL and not by region. Where NY, Mchigan, Cali teams have to hold off because of state restrictions, but the Falcons can hold camp business as usual. The NFL needs to level the playing field for the season. It is in the best interest of the product.

WHHAAAAATTTT? Our Uni's are easily top 5 in the league. Why would we change them, they are awesome. God, this made them even worse.

That is an ownership decision not a manufacturer decision. I would assume anyways. NYG, Dallas, GB, etc. have not had any real uniform changes in decades.

Unsure who makes these decisions. I assume that Nike creates a couple of options for owners, marketing, etc. to decide from. This is less on Nike and more on ownership I think.

I could look past the weird fading colors for the numbers if they never changed the horns on the helmet.

Guilty of not reading the article and only reading the OP. I was going of Cal and UCLA which are PAC-12 schools. While not dominant they have players just not enough of them. If the PAC-12 cuts the season I stand by my post. Otherwise, you are 100% right. Agreed. Maybe some movement in the lower ranked schools. But nothing near the top get effected...unless kids decide to transfer. I am guessing you lose some from the ACC but they play on, PAC-12 eventually cancels. The league will to the way of the B1G. While a power conference UM, OSU, Wisco, are all very good schools academically regardless of politics. They still may cancel.

And they could be...if it wasn’t for the SEC and ACC. Based on regions depending on which way the big 10 schools go will be the real kicker. Students will get another year of eligibility if they choose to wait it out. From the sounds of it the PAC-12 will eventually call it quits on the year. Which means there is no inter conference transfer issues. If programs jump on this right, you could see some power teams for the areas of the country that stay open. If I were say Georgia and I had any kids not committed yet, with some money still available, I’d be jumping on starting guys from cancelled programs for weak spots on my roster. Also UCLA and UW are good schools. Even if you don’t have money, I’m sure they have some pull to get them academic money.

Fair point. A little chick and egg. Both sides have some validity. Robert Woods has a near identical catch rate to Antonio Brown with LAR. But sub 60% in his time in BUF.

If you have a VPN $5 per month for the CBS and/or Fox app, you can just change your location to somewhere the game is being shown locally and watch it that way.

Thats a good call. Helps account for bad throw %. Knox was bad at catching the ball. I knew he lead the team with 10. But I had just assumed (my bad) that some combination of KB, Zay Jones, would easily hit that based on all the crap they get/got. But they only added up to 5. Chris Ivory actually led the team with 4. Same as Singletary. I’d call that a wash. 17/24 drops from 2018 were not on the roster in 2019. And Knox played catch up for over half of it. Haha.

People talk a lot about our 2019 drops. Anybody concerned that we substantially upgraded our OL and WR corps from 18 to 19 and our starting QB played more games after a full NFL offseason and both drops and drop percentages went up pretty significantly? 2018: Josh Allen started 10 games. Team had 499 attempts. 24 Drops. 5% drop rate. 2019: Josh Allen started 16 games. Team had 513 attempts. 36 drops. 7.4% drop rate. https://www.pro-football-reference.com/years/2018/advanced.htm

Haha. That’s why I said culturally.

Do I want him to? yes. Do I think he has the physical skill set to do so? Yes, and so did a lot of other failed QB’s. . If I had to put my mortgage On the line as to whether he will pan out? no I don’t think he will. But that doesn’t mean I am rooting against him. I would love to be wrong. I weighted @Kirby Jackson point incorrectly. I took his biggest grievance as comparing Allen to Trubiski as being unfair in general. His biggest gripe is unnecessary click bait. Which I agree with, especially for a site that prides itself in analytics. We will have a better idea of which way Allen is trending after his third year and PFF chose to rule up fans with a catchy headline.

This is fair. I can get behind that. Maybe I am romanticizing the PFF of old. But it feels like not that long ago they made a name for themselves by collecting good data and releasing the broad level stuff to the public and making the more granular stuff paid for. Then have maybe an article behind the payroll breaking down metrics that point one way, the other, or both. They are slowly starting to lose me to, and gaining pace. Honestly, a twitter poll from ESPN asking “Will Josh Allen look more like 3rd year Favre or 3rd year Trubiski in his junior season?” Would be fine, because ESPN isn’t trying to present themselves as the football analytic bible. Also it’s a fair talking point on both sides.
