If the wind is as confused as I am you won’t feel a thing on the field!

LOL. Ok. Believe me, the players prefer less wind.

Bringing back Beach Chairs was one of the best coaching decisions of McD’s career.

I’m now confused. Are you saying you want a windy stadium?

Where did you expect him to be? He’s not overtaking Kincaid or Knox, and they just drafted the best blocking TE in football in Hawes.

In general you are correct, but wind is the condition that I think does make a difference because windy conditions add too much variability to passes and kicks. Remove the wind, you remove that variability, which means the better team (QB) should prevail. That benefits Buffalo as long as Allen is at the helm.

Very strange case. Some day I’d like to hear what happened there.

Tua, and the Fish in general, have been fantastic against the also-rans of the NFL. The knock on Tua is his durability as well as his (to this point) inability to put a team on his back and win the tough games. It seems as though teams with well-coached defenses take away what Tua does best, and he struggles to compensate. I don’t personally “hate on” Tua — I’m actually concerned for his long-term health and would have advised him to retire after the last round of concussions. I think he’s a good dude and a very good QB — but not elite.

I don’t even think Shakir’s injury is worrisome. He doesn’t need practice leading up to the Ravens game, and if he misses that one, so be it. Everyone else except Hairston is on track to be available in week one, and Hairston wasn’t going to be starting anyway. If you’re really “worried” about the injuries I have a suggestion…shut down your media outlets for the next three weeks and tune in the Wednesday before the first game, when you can read the injury report and breathe a sigh of relief.

It's in another thread but Kyren Williams just got a 3 year, 33M extension. That's a very good comp for Cook. Edit: just saw it above I agree this is a big piece that may help Beane get it done.

Similar stats...if the Bills could reach agreement with Cook at 11M per season I don't think any of us would be too upset.

Agree. I won’t buy one because I have too many facking Bills hats already (the Buffalo Potato hats arrived this week) but those will be keepers down the road.

Feels like game day! I’m gonna start drinking at 10 am!

Yeah, I’m not worried about Bass because there’s still a month before the kicks mean anything. As they are with everyone, the Bills are just being overly cautious right now with nothing on the line.

Yes I saw that. I'm happily married myself, but I can still look...

I agree, and Jenna is sort of sneaky hot as well...

I doubt anything “happened.” I think Cook is just using whatever leverage he has at this point to force the issue. He has been a “good soldier” all along, reporting to mandatory minicamp and practicing through the first two weeks of training camp. I’m on record that I believe Cook is extremely important to this offense. I trust that Beane will get something done, whether it is just sweetening the pot for this season or working out a 2-3 year extension.

@Simon — maybe pin this thread and we can use it for the duration of the show?

Your mother is sensitive.

It's quite remarkable that I'm going to need to explain my joke to you. The dis is on the original poster, not his mother. The joke is that he lives in his mother's basement and she just called down to tell him his meatloaf is ready. Good grief.

LOL...this thread has officially jumped the shark.

What?

I think your mom just called down to the basement that your meatloaf is ready...

You're the keyboard jockey who called a young man living his dream and fighting for a spot on an NFL roster a "loser." Suffice it to say, I don't think any of us give a fkuk about anything you type, so go slink back into your mother's basement.
