    Thanks, Jeff. But what does this have to do with anything? I said I have no doubt he’s a hard worker and a good teammate. I hope all of our guys can go out and have an Isiah McKenzie 3 TD day, but if Duke is doing anything more than standing on the sidelines or getting a few snaps on special teams, something hasn’t gone right in this game. 

     

    Here is what it "has to do with anything".

     

    Beane and McD watch Duke all year. Beane and McD know how to evaluate football players. They can be wrong of course, but I wouldn't challenge them on that from my seat here because I haven't watched him all year and they are better than me at evaluating football players.

     

    So my assumption is, if you ARE challenging them on this decision, you must also be watching him and good at evaluating football players.

     

    So I was hoping for some insider knowledge.

    With all due respect, first of all there's no mod hive mind so I can't explain all mod decisions nor can any other mod, we just all does our best.  And second of all, if you want to discuss this further back and forth, can you please take it to PM with each other instead of filling up this thread?  Thank you.

     

    With all due respect, I will drop it. It seems I'm in the heavy minority here lol

    I get the feeling it may come down to who wins what games.  If we play the Steelers I think it will be sunday since they have the late game sunday this week.  If it's the Ravens/Titans, I think we will get the saturday game.  No real reason why I think that other than TV ratings for the big markets being able to watch the games.

     

    OK thanks. I was hoping there was some formula. I thought I read here that someone was pretty sure they would play Sunday if they win.

     

    I think I'll pick Sunday off, but I can probably change that after tomorrow if I need to .

    Ughhhh. Very Nathan Peterman-like by trying to run this back. I have no doubt that Duke is a hard worker and a great teammate, but enough already.

     

    Hmm, I assume by how sure you seem in your post that you've been watching his development at practice and you aren't happy with it. How has he been practicing? How has he looked since the rest of us last saw him?

    I understand where you guys are coming from, but on the same token we don't necessarily need a new thread start every time someone has a good point or post they want bring up for discussion in my humble opinion. 

     

    An older NFL star was seemingly given a box next to the owner of the team. We're not allowed a thread to discuss that?

    I third the notion of wondering why a thread got locked because someone mentioned the topic in the completely unrelated 60+ page game thread.  I don't want to have to wade through literally dozens of pages to discuss a topic you wouldn't even expect to find there.

     

    Yep it's annoying. Kills the conversation pretty quickly, that's for sure

     

    Also, sort of OT: if the Bills were to win, does anyone know if they would play on next Sat or Sun? Like is there a system to that scheduling?

     

    Looking to take a day off work next weekend and unsure which to choose in the event the Bills win

    Love it! 
     

    But why is Chad Johnson in a box at a Bills game during the pandemic? 
     

    Seriously, I’m super curious. I didn’t even think families were in the stadium. No fans seems to be no fans. 

     

    (Also, closing down the thread for this was silly. It’s not actually related to the Indy game)

     

     

    I was wondering the same thing, both why he was there and why on earth you guys shut that thread down lol

    Exactly. Eff this guy. Just look at him for God's sake. His face screams "punch meeee". D-bag. 

     

    Right, even his look is intentional.

     

    He sees Bills fans have an inferiority complex and he is playing to it. It's smart in an annoying way. You will never be able to present enough facts for him to change his mind because being right or wrong is irrelevant to him. He wants your attention and he is getting it.

     

    Childish but very effective obviously

    Awesome achievement for all those guys.

     

    Beasley just shouldn't be there though. He had a great season for himself, but this is just a weird quirk with the way the voting works where receiving 1 outlier vote from someone was enough to tie. There were definitely more deserving WRs this year though.

     

    Big market teams get these all the time. Don't need to apoligize for our great players this season in a small market. Just ride with it. IMO
