T.E.

Look forward to listening. There really hasn't been a particularly good Bills podcast, which is kind of wild considering how popular the team is.

The 80s Rams uniforms that they wore a few years back when they lost to NE in the Super Bowl were about as good as uniforms get. Sad to see how they, and several other teams, tried to modernize and ruined their look. The aforementioned Rams, Atlanta, Seattle, Denver, the Bills when they went full-CFL in 2002, etc. Less is more!

An ultimate leader of men. We all talk about how much we like the current construction of the Bills now. Good guys, hard-working guys, no crazy egos. Marv did not have the benefit of that last description. He had to manage a bunch of guys who, let's be honest, at times could be prima donnas. He did so by treating them with respect, defending any in-fighting in the press, and having a true understanding of the trials and tribulations that an NFL player goes through. He has a bunch of famous quotes, but my favorite may be when he was asked why the Bills didn't have brutal training camps. His response: "It's easy to be tough with other guys' bodies." The players respected him, and they played for him. Three of those four SBs were against probably two of the best seven NFL teams ever, so spare me the nonsense about how he failed to win the big one.

I'll be on a business trip and will have to catch this one at a bar somewhere or even in my hotel room. Don't these HR dingleberries know that you shouldn't have your employees traveling on opening day of the NFL season? This is our freaking national pastime!

New to me too, and I 100% believe it. McDermott probably wanted to bring in someone like Brian Hoyer and run the ball 46 times a game.

Miami always looks awesome right up until the temperature drops below 65⁰.

I was thinking Trent Edwards and Losman.

This franchise has ruined at least two QBs in my lifetime by making them worry too much about picks, and those were in regular season games. They're gonna happen whether you like it or not.

That's all well and good until you play a team in the postseason who is excellent at taking care of the ball.

I'm not even sure the Bills' current defensive strategy would even allow for this type of player to emerge. It's clearly super-reactive and predicated on not taking risks.

He has 1000 yards five years in a row, and he hasn't had a ton of awesome QB play during that period. Can the Bills even afford him, though? And do we really want to improve any portion of the team outside of the defensive line? We may need a 16th guy for the rotation. For what it's worth, I'd rather dedicate any extra money to Cook.

100% agree. If they don't win one during the Allen era, it will be a colossal failure. Colossal.

Dude, a lot of Bills fans don't even care if they make a Super Bowl (let alone wine one) as long as they get to watch a team that consistently makes the playoffs. Completely traumatized from the drought. This will get downvoted, but it's 100% true and a pattern that has emerged on this very board.

I didn't really care about the shade situation, but ruling that the team in the sun can't have those AC misters on the sideline if the shade teams eschews them is ridiculous. It's like they don't remember the Korey Stringer incident at all

Browns' traditional uniforms are classic. Literally the one thing about that franchise that the fans can hang their hat on.

And LeBron James. And they both did it through diligence and hard work only. It definitely wasn't a situation where they were clearly on PEDs and everyone just turned a blind eye to it because they were megastars that made their respective leagues tons of money. No way. Why would someone even think that?

Allen would've won the SB multiple times already as a Raven.

There is not a worse free agent signing in Bills history.

There are multiple teams where, if they had Josh Allen, they would lose somewhere between 0-2 games per season.

Sir, let me tell you a story about a gentleman named Derrick Dockery.

Sanders is maybe the best pound-for-pound back ever, but it's wild how much more favorably he's remembered than Thurman, when the latter had far, far more signature playoff performances.

Strahan's single-season sack record has a huge asterisk considering that Favre called a play to purposely give it to him. Thurman, meanwhile, led the league in yards per scrimmage four consecutive years, something no other player has ever done. He was NFL MVP and should've been the MVP of SB XXV, even in a loss. The guy who wrote that article is 27 years old, so there's that.

I don't even like bringing it up, but when I saw that picture, part of me wondered if that still might be in his future. That leg looks completely nonviable, and he played in the NFL on it. Nothing short of extraordinary.

I read the same article. I guess peace alone doesn't pay the bills.

Haha, great story. I think he's probably the best TE in Bills history, which is like being the fastest kid at fat camp, but he was still The Man.
