    I consider myself a pretty die hard bills fan and would have lost money if someone bet me that he was ever a Bill. 

    That was the preseason from hell. Leinart was signed off the street a day or two before, and if he had been merely average in that game, he likely would've been the Week One starter.

    Everybody can say what they want about Cam Newton 

     

    The dresses weird he's a clown etc 

     

    But he absolutely has a friendly high energy personality.. he was always known as a terrific teammate to his own guys

     

    His charity has given over 5 million dollars to schools 

     

    He's been Carolina Panthers Walter Payton recipient 

     

    He holds football camps for kids through high schoolers 

     

    He's not out there beating up his wife or kids.. he's not out there driving 115 miles an hour crashing and killing people.. not drinking and driving...

     

     Cam Newton is a legend in Charlotte and changed plenty of kids lives.. that alone makes me not dislike him

     

     

    Dude, if you watch Cam Newton talk for 15 seconds and don't immediately come to the conclusion that he is an awful human being, your ability to read people is irreparably broken. He sucks in every way imaginable.

    I've pretty much given up the idea of ever going to camp again. It used to be a fun thing for my son and I but ever since the lotto ticket we've never been able to go. 

    I feel like they people who enthusiastically showed up to camp for years and had to talk themselves into guys Kevin Kolb, Matt Flynn, EJ Manuel, and Brian Brohm should be prioritized over Johnny-come-lately Bills fans.

    True BUT the poster has a legit point, doing windmill dunks so high in the air is taking it too far imo, he very easily could have hurt an ankle, comparing it to Josh Allen playing softball is an absurd reach. If I was McDermott i would not be very happy.  

    Exactly, but unfortunately the insane level of nonstop homerism on this site doesn't allow for pragmatic thinking like this

     

    We just need to be good fans and agree that going full-Space Jam carries the exact same amount of risk for an ACL tear as playing croquet with young children on the front lawn.

  5. I am someone who wasn't particularly charmed by his opening press conference like most people seemingly were. He seemed like a total space cadet.

     

    That being said, he made enough plays his rookie year to make me bullish on his future. Let's give this guy a chance before we start burying him.

    There are plenty of scouts who never want to get into all the BS that the front office comes with 

     

    They actually like the grind and the hustle of being a area scout on the road 

     

    And you can make depending on the team and your seniority 60 70 80 90 thousand dollars on the road 

     

    That's with everything else getting paid for so yeah tough life but if it's your passion it's not that bad

     

    Sure, but traveling all the time for work really wears on you, especially at $80K a year. Jim Monos probably made six times that as a director of scouting, and he wasn't exactly Bill Polian.

    does a higher salary make one a better scout?

    I think the issue is that guys who are consistently great at scouting have opportunities to make a much higher salary in other front office positions.

    That sounds about right; I think McGee was Winfield's replacement.

     

    I think he was. He was electric as a returner, and I think that possibly clouded their judgment on his coverage skills. "We'll put him and Clements back there and have two guys at corner who are a threat to score on every INT." He wasn't a bad player, but Greer was better. Greer a good run with New Orleans, I think, after he left Buffalo.

    Bryan Scott - he was my defensive 'Fred Jackson' during the 'Cash to the Cap' era.  
     

    Safety that got plopped into a tweener LB role, he was just always in the right place at the right time.  Loved that player.  

    He absolutely had a nose for the ball. There were a lot of defensive diamonds-in-the-rough during the Gailey era that McDermott could've really shaped into awesome players.

    Most of the games from 2012 I’ll skip.  It was a very disappointing season to me and not a good year for me personally.  So I’ll get triggered memories kind of thing.

     

    I could enjoy watching condensed Bills games from the pasts or highlights 

    The Gailey years all run together for me.
