  1. Feels pretty good to me. Just win. This is the NFL. Nobody goes wire to wire and does so with style points. We all want to see 20 games that look like Bills v Pats in the wild card round. That is simply not possible. We are beating divisional opponents that have serious playoff chances and doing it when it matters.
  2. Unrealistic expectations and stockholm syndrome from years of failure. This was supposed to be our year (very still might be) so people expected to see the Bills that played the Patriots in the Wild Card round blow everybody out of the stadium en route to a perfect season. Every game, quarter, series that does not look like championship football fuels doubt. People find comfort in the idea that the wheels are coming off and big disappointment is right around the corner. If it doesn't happen then we're super bowl champs, certainly an agreeable outcome. If we fall on our faces and Buffalo falls into a giant sinkhole well "I f!%@#$ called it bro! I knew it was gonnna happen." The Bills suck but at least that individual feels right and likely more intelligent than the next guy. Its like a hedge on happiness.
  3. The equipment too. The skates guys were wearing in the 70s had no support. They may as well have been Converse sneakers tied to kitchen knives compared to what we have today. And these composite sticks are crazy. I remember the first slap shot I took with the first gen composite sticks and the puck explodes off your blade compared to the old wood or aluminum sticks.
  4. He has good size which is often overlooked. He is not just some speedy little guy. Comparing players across eras is always difficult, perhaps foolish, but I don't see how anyone could get close enough to touch him in any era of hockey. His combination of speed and skill is unparalleled.
  5. Would you say the future of crypto lies in centralized, regulated, trackable utility tokens?
  6. McDavid's pre NHL highlights were incredible but count me among the people who thought he would get killed trying to weave through 5 guys in the pros. Needless to say, it still looks like hes playing against junior level talent and no one can touch him at any level. I don't know if hes the best hockey player of all time yet, since the team factor and elevating teammates is such a big part of that, but without a doubt hes the most singularly talented player to ever put on skates.
  7. Ring works great. I have Ring with a solar cell so there is no need to recharge batteries or connect directly to an outlet. The only issue is sensitivity and range. Depending on how big your yard is the camera might not trigger when he moves on to your yard or it might go off every time the wind blows.
  8. That's why the restraining order was amended to 500 feet.
  9. Pretty sure its Rachel's sister. The one she's always begging to delete tweets because "Dad is on twitter!!".
  10. What was your point? Defenders don't miss sometimes?
  11. Angle? It was a straight line to the ball carrier. It was an easier play than an open field tackle. He had help. I don't know what point you thought you had when you bumped this thread to settle old scores but its not convincing.
  12. The screen pass was 1 v 1. Hamlin was flying down untouched. He blocked himself and gave up a TD. Offenses will take WR/RB 1 on 1 against a DB in the open field every time.
  13. Neither should be the Jets. They have a solid defense but a legit competitor should be beating the Jets, Pats, Bears 90% of the time.
  14. Swing pass vs. bubble screen materially changes the situation that both passes were short of the sticks and require a pass catcher to make one man miss to get a first down?
  15. That really stuck with you, huh? Here's a similar play from the same game.
  16. Houston fans were very hospitable. They even helped us out by saving their loudest cheers for when their offense was huddling. Sweet people. Not very football savvy. There was one highly drunk guy heckling Bills fans from a distance as we walked out of the stadium with a mocking "hey ey ay ay" but considering how loud and confident we were walking into their house we got off pretty easy. The local police and Texans staff working the parking lots, however, totally suck. They were threatening arrests for those of us still hanging at the tailgate after the game and 2 years prior they shut down our tailgate in Yellow lot.
  17. You are doing it. That was your 78th post. Only 922 inspired quips to go! What happens at 1,000?
  18. https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/2022/07/12/marion-barbers-death-what-we-know-dangers-heatstroke/10036028002/
  19. Sounds like this already happens on a regular basis.
  20. I'm glad to know that the TV at your in-laws house belongs to your in-laws but it sounds like you can't even quit right.
  21. It doesn't confuse him if the 8 in coverage are playing a deep shell 25 yards off scrimmage.
  22. Are you hoping the Pats are bad for the next 10 years?
  23. New England has two wins against teams that have a record better than 0.375 and both are against the Zach Wilson led Jets.
  24. 8-4 and eliminated with 5 to play?
