Please continue crying about how the Bills broke your heart and you just can’t love again. We can’t get enough.

Oh @GunnerBill ... https://www.twobillsdrive.com/community/topic/205086-rd1-pick-7-josh-allen-qb-wyoming/?do=findComment&comment=5069064 Now I know Josh hasn't really "made it" yet but this is still a classic.

Given your credentials and qualifications this number actually seems low.

Man, it's really open season on the Pegulas these days. Hopefully they get things figured out -- always thought they were growing that company a little too quickly.

They're better than what they've been wearing...still hate the helmet and logo.

Thanks @GunnerBill -- I haven't the time or interest to dig up info on all of these players so I appreciate having a "one-stop-shop."

As a passer Fergie is the 2nd best Bills QB of all time. Hoping Josh eventually bumps him down to 3rd.

I stopped reading when I saw "transcendent" Joe Burrow. LOL

My biggest takeaway with respect to EJ is that he just wasn't strong enough mentally. This isn't the first time I heard him talk about "losing confidence" and it's pretty remarkable he got as far as he did. An NFL QB has to be oozing confidence. Super nice guy, just not mentally strong enough to play at the highest level. He does a very nice job on the ACC network.

Yeah, I agree -- WEO just likes to be the contrarian. If you're a coach/GM and your team is in the midst of a playoff run you don't talk about what you don't have. And even after the season is over, before you've made any roster moves, you still don't "tip your hand" publicly even if everyone else knows what your team needs.

Well aren't we glad Beane changed his mind then.

the takes you put out there are something else. When I read one of your posts it reminds me of the Seinfeld episode in which George tries to do everything the opposite.

Hard to believe you make your team better trading away an asset like that.

Just listened to it. Talked about needing a #1 WR and how they tried to go after some guys at the trade deadline last season. Bemoaned having to settle for FGs at Houston. Said at the end of the day they know they have to score more points. Diggs is better than what they felt they could get at #22 and (pats self on back) with the COVID-19 situation having a veteran rather than a rookie was a consideration also. Otherwise, nothing too insightful. Apparently Frank Gore has large balls.

Might be one of the Bills' waterboys.

It's actually a week and a day, @Kirby Jackson...but, whatever.

The fact that a lot of guys are saying they don't see the differences in the new/old uniforms just reaffirms a widely-held belief/stereotype that there are a lot of dudes who have no eye for fashion/style whatsoever.

It's probably the best they can do with that scheme. Not bad.

Aren't you the poster who called Beane's trades up in the draft "annoying?" The Bills have already pushed their chips in...they're not looking to mortgage the future for a rookie who won't even be practicing much prior to the start of the season. This is the WORST year to be trading up in the draft.

@BarleyNY if you're going to say Josh "got a break" for entering the league so raw (which I disagree with, by the way -- he's been hammered constantly by those looking to confirm their bust predictions) then you should also acknowledge that Mayfield was considered a largely "finished product" entering the league. Anyway, it's only natural that the five QBs taken in the first round of that draft will be compared throughout their careers. Jackson got shot out of a cannon but I don't think there is consensus that he will wind up being the best of the bunch when all is said and done. In five years it would not surprise me to see Allen and Darnold considered the best franchise QBs to come out of that draft.

Beane is playing some 4D chess...

The state of Indiana in the C is 'cute' but I don't understand the font change with all of the inconsistencies.

That's correct. Last season was a "let's see if we can show we belong in the playoffs" year...this season the expectations are beyond that, regardless of what people are saying about a "tougher schedule." When the opponents are announced how many of those teams look at Buffalo on their schedule and think, "good, an easy game?" It's time for Bills fans to stop thinking the Bills are a doormat. Other teams don't want to play us.

Opponents weren't looking past them last year. That stuff is way overblown.

[YAWN} Only one of the three improved his play last season -- despite the fact that one of them was gifted a great QB guru and soothsayer as his HC and one of them was gifted his OC as his HC. Only one of the three has been to the playoffs. Allen got better last year. Significantly. His deep ball accuracy was horrible but he improved dramatically in the short and intermediate range game. His accuracy and QB rating at that level was very good. He was one of the best red zone QBs in the league. And guess what he's working on this offseason? His deep ball. Given the way this kid dedicates himself to improving his weaknesses if you don't expect him to be better this year you're still just clinging to your pre-draft assessment.
