  1. Yeah, you lost me with that grade with those stats, especially compared to your other grades.
  2. Super glad I left Allen, Diggs and Henry in. My QB replacement would have been Matt Ryan, who put up an amazing 6.94 points...
  3. If that were the case, it would have been easier to simply not disclose the positive test...
  4. I hear you. I just took out Allen, Diggs and Henry...then said f-it and put them back in...
  5. His tweet was not ambiguous or confusing. #readingcomprehension I am not fully on board with the 'they have 2 more days to game plan than we do so they have a massive advantage' train, but have fun on that ride. Biggest issue in my opinion is day by day, they don't know who to game plan for. i am sure they are focusing on TEN, but I am also sure that someone in the building has been frantically prepping KC film as well. To another poster's point, I almost hope there is another positive, so the schedule can lock down and the team and get back to normal practice/game prep as they would on any normal week.
  6. It felt really weird reading this in the Start'em Sit'em column...
  7. In years past I would never draft Bills payers in fantasy. Partly because of the homer comments and partly because very few were statistically good due to the teams lack of success and troubles at QB. Every once in a while I might pick up their D or their RB, but certainly not one of their WRs or QB. Its 2020. I didn't expect to be watching football. I also didn't expect to be in a fantasy league. I drafted Allen and Diggs. Being excited about the Bills winning AND fantasy football success normally don't go together, but hot damn. Unrelated but crazy; Matt Ryan has similar stats as Allen in the first two weeks. 700+ yards and 6 TDs. The Falcons are 0-2.
  8. I wasn't looking at one year, but thanks. Mayfield, Darnold, and Rosen all experienced dysfunction/turnover at the GM and or HC/coaching staff level and I would grade their 'success' (over 2 years and YTD) as markedly below Jackson and Allen. Edited to correct "3 years"
  9. I think D Jones and Garrett will be a good pairing.
  10. If you think about it, of the 5 QBs taken in the first round, only two ended up in stable team management situations; Allen and Jackson. I don't think it is a coincidence that those are the two that have had the best success thus far.
  11. I read about 50 of the 73 or so pages of their gameday thread. I love seeing the progression of emotions from hopeful arrogance to crushing depression and defeat. Sadly, reading many of the comments does ring back to several years where we were in that boat. SARs did show up toward the end of the thread saying something about how the victory means nothing, we should have beaten them by more and Allen will injured in the next week or two, etc.
  12. I assume he is going PS. Bring him in just to reacquaint with folks prior to cut down and PS add.
  13. Or else what? That's really the question. They have brought it onto the field and certainly during the sing song. They are going to continue to do so. Now there will be end zone messages as well. So there. Its happening. What now?
  14. Apparently not. I don't think they were invited to the 'critical thinker' meeting either. Sounds super exclusive.
  15. Who decided that you and your 'critical thinking' friends get to decide what their jobs are or aren't? If they should be role-models or not? Was there a meeting I missed? Was I not invited? I would like to register to be an active participant in these discussions. Celebrities; actors, sports, music or otherwise, have been role-models for years. The current environment might just not be your cup of tea. And that's fine. Culture changes and sometimes when that happens, people feel let behind or excluded. I think that the NFL and the other leagues will be ok if you and your group of 'critical thinkers' decide to boycott. #endracism
  16. I wasn't going to call you out, but since spelling and grammar is the road you want to take, please explain 'divulge into it' from your first post. I mean it's going to say 'end racism', not 'end racists'; you aren't in any danger.
  17. So, you make a statement stating figures from sources you don't trust, but you only acknowledge that you don't trust these sources when someone states figures that contradict what you posted. Got it. I have work to do, I have no more time for this childish game. I think my point has been made. Have a great day.
  18. Now you are changing your data. Your OP discussed positivity rates not mortality rates. Don't move the goal posts now... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moving_the_goalposts#:~:text=Moving the goalposts (or shifting,side an advantage or disadvantage. Your basis for supporting fans in the stadium was that the positivity rate for Florida is under 5%. Your were incorrect. Then additionally, in the specific area, Miami-Dade, the positivity rate is almost double that rate. That was bonus material. So, this data (of which you don't supply a source), doesn't support your original position as it is a different topic. Just accept that you were wrong and that it is irresponsible for the Miami Dolphins to have 13k fans attend a game in an area that just recently dropped below a 10% positivity rate.
  19. No one said declining infection rates were not good news. My comment was in response to it being states that Florida was under a 5% infection rate and that was a supporting reason to justify that having 13k fans attend a game in Miami was a good idea. Also, grow up and read this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straw_man Then come back and discuss with the adults.
  20. 'Florida coronavirus: State reports 2,974 new cases, 5.52% positivity rate' https://www.wfla.com/community/health/coronavirus/florida-coronavirus-state-reports-2974-new-cases-5-52-positivity-rate/ I believe Friday was the only day it dipped below 5% (4.89%). And Miami-Dade specifically, is at 9.5%, almost double. And they are celebrating being under 10% as if its a victory. 'In Miami-Dade, the new case rate was 9.5%, the third straight day under 10% for the state’s hardest hit county.' https://www.nbcmiami.com/news/local/florida-adds-4684-new-coronavirus-cases-as-positivity-rates-remain-low/2281277/ But hey, dont let facts get in the way of your 'champ' argument...
  21. 'There is no weakness'. 23rd in the league in rush yards allowed. I know we are good. I know we will continue to be good. I just don't like the no weakness bit. Maybe its the you can always improve mantra or something. Now, the folks we signed to support the DL, maybe they have run stop ability that we were otherwise lacking. I read that AJ Klein is specifically a run stuff guy as a LB. I have a lingering fear of hubris. Go Bills.
  22. Unless they updated the article after most of these comments, it states that the NFL, not the Bills sent the survey. The Bills stated that it was not the team. Also, as someone else pointed out, they would first have to get past the Cuomo hurdle. I am done trying to have conversations with people about common sense. I am tired of having to wield science vs. the swords of ignorance. Go for it. Have fun.
