  1. Incredible talent. truly one of the game's best WR's. Very reasonable contract as well. But that attitude....ugh. He's a diva and a flake rolled into one. I'm of the opinion that this could easily backfire. This guy has had the luxury of playing with a HOF QB his entire career and he has a meltdown if he doesn't get his 1,500 yards. What's he going to do if he struggles to get 1,000 yards with a 2nd year QB? He comes across as a me-first guy and not a team player.
  2. You're absolutely right about that. The only people on the planet that wouldn't make that trade live in Buffalo.
  3. Oh man, might as well fit him for a jersey tomorrow. Is there any possibility this doesn't happen? I have no issues with a cheap 1-year deal, but based on their brief history of overpaying for former players, I'm skeptical this ends well.
  4. Great news for the rest of the division!
  5. Absolutely. This has to happen, it makes too much sense. It wasn't really possible before 1990 since the Superbowl followed the typical schedule of one week off, and you wouldn't want teams to play a championship on short rest. Since they switched to two weeks off a.k.a. let's hype this thing like crazy, there's no reason not to have it on a Saturday.
  6. He wasn't under pressure, he was truly clueless about how to construct a roster long term. His philosophy was "Win Now" and he focused on building a team through free agency. His spending was unconscionable. He traded draft picks away like candy. "Bryce Brown? Sure, we'll give you a 4th round pick for him" Hey, we got 36 whole carries out of that deal! His entire approach to team-building was flawed, and that's why he will never be an NFL GM again. Ever. Those were some of the darkest years of the drought, because his firing was inevitable (at least it was to some). If anyone still thinks Doug was a competent GM or that "Rex got him fired," they simply don't understand the duties of a GM past what's required for their fantasy league.
  7. This is very true, and something I was thinking about as I watched Peters neutralize Khalil Mack earlier.
  8. Yeah I don't see him making the team, but no doubt he's a cheap low risk signing.
  9. I'm very surprised (stunned actually) to see over 90% in approval, but I think recency bias from the last game has a lot to do with that number. I honestly don't think I've ever seen a season where the Chicken Littles cried so much.
  10. Isn't Kiko a repeat offender? He sure looked like a guy trying to take his frustrations out with a late hit.
  11. You have to be very careful with tackle stats and LBs. He was statistically excellent vs the Pats (11 tackles .5 sack) but his play on the the field was poor (273 rush yds). Bills PR Dept indeed.
  12. Wow Jets....wow. I mean, I love the potential of this guy and his style of play when healthy but that's just nuts.
  13. He's 32 years old. Come on now...
  14. I'm in this boat as well. I don't even consider him a serviceable backup. He played well and completed his ducks in a victory against a 2-win team that quit on their coach, so I sort of get the excitement from fans that have never seen him play before. But, If this guy ever has to come in for 6 or 7 games he might win one or two. Maybe. Anyways, after the QB problems and heat the FO took this year, I fully expect them to carry 3 QBs next year -- and they absolutely should. So if Barkley is going to play the 3rd string/mentor role at QB I think its a good deal.
  15. 3,000 yards??? This ain't the 1980s. 3,000 yards means squat. Kyle Orton passed for 3,000 yards. In 12 games.
  16. Saints are merely "great" on the road, but an absolute nightmare to play against in that dome. And with the next two games at home, the road to the Superbowl will assuredly go through N'Awlins.
  17. This. What takes more wishful thinking -- A) a 31-yr old RB will make it through a 16 game season or B) that our sieve of an OL will be repaired in one offseason?
  18. Good Lord that win over the Jets in November got the Kool-Aid flowing like Niagara Falls
  19. It's a fair assessment of Allen. It's probably not what fans want to hear, but it's fair.
  20. Sweet. 7 catches today would leave no doubt about what a brilliant signing he was.
  21. It's been clear since the day they were moved. What took you so long?
  22. This shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone that's been paying attention the past few years.
