that’s a load of crap and you know it. I respect all fans with opinions; I make fun of those who add nothing but negativity or who think they know it all. You fall into the latter category, sport. Cheers!

“Woman?” I beg to differ.

I’m really disappointed nobody got this reference, by the way.

I really want to make fun of that comment but I completely agree.

We’ve got a good one, folks. To hear the honesty about “crapping his pants” in the Chargers game, to talking about how he has grown and when he felt like he belonged...holy schitt this kid has the “it” factor and then some. Great, great stuff.

The Ravens' game plan will be to begin their 2:00 drill at the 5:00 mark.

How many OL does a team typically keep? 10? I think Feliciano and Long are locks, and the rest of the guys are fighting for the remaining three slots. I think the "pro's pro" (what everyone should say when referring to Gore, lol) is a lock. I think Murphy (DL) is a lock.

Lighten up, Francis.

Much like the negative nincompoops who keep poo-pooing any optimistic viewpoints! See, this IS fun!

I'll take "words I never expected to read on TSW" for $1000, Alex...

Corrected for accuracy. And I don't. I'm having a lot of fun with this. You should try it!

So get your sports from a jock like me, who knows what it's like to have a groin injury. A g-g-groin, injury.

The no huddle offense is too quick for Trentative. He needs time to take a look downfield, panic, and then dump the ball off.

Oh, just you wait until he forgets to preserve a timeout to use in the 4th quarter. All hell will break loose!

Aww...that almost sounds sincere!

Singletary. I think he could be special.

Are there any Bills fans here who don't want to win? What I'm talking about is a difference in perspective -- you can be a skeptic about everything you read and see and expect the worst, or you can look for positive signs and not remain in the past. I'm not "worried" about being disappointed by the Buffalo Bills -- if I was, I'd have given them up a long time ago.

Is it "wrong" to be skeptical? Of course not. It's just not very much fun. I like fun. A bowl of mushy peaches doesn't sound like fun.

Tolbert up the middle frequently gained solid yardage. Dennison is to blame for the play calling that sent Tolbert out wide.

I view the strength of an OC to be getting the most out of what he has to work with, and my recollection is that Dennison was an "I'm going to play my scheme regardless of who is out there" kind of guy -- who can forget the wide runs with Tolbert? I don't disagree that the offensive talent outside of Shady was abysmal -- but as you state, the OL was significantly better. In any event, trashing Daboll based upon the 1st half of 2018 is uncalled for, in my opinion. I completely agree that he should and will be judged upon how the offense performs this season.

Allowing Mike Gillislie to get away.

I can't even count how many times you have said this or something similar in your recent posts. Do you think stating this means you should be considered more "objective" or something? Jesus, man, lighten up. It's a freaking game. You moan and groan about how Bills fans "settle" and how wrong you used to be for being optimistic -- talk about becoming a Debbie Downer. And you're doing this at a time during which nearly everyone objectively believes the right FO is finally in place and doing the things necessary to build a consistent winner. Dennison was terrible. We all saw it in the play calling. Tyrod was never the answer. And using the start of 2018 as a criticism of Daboll is disingenuous. Allen got snaps with mostly the 3rd string and they started the season with Peterman! Do you truly, objectively, not see a difference in the way the offense functioned before and after Allen's injury? Daboll has come up through the ranks having been around a lot of good coaches. Your assessment is biased by your insatiable desire to prove you are not a homer -- which is odd.

I mean, who isn’t? There’s nothing quite like the satisfaction of a big Schatz. ? Anyway, I think you and I basically agree - perhaps you phrased it more eloquently but this is what I meant when I called Allen an analytics unicorn.

Oh, Jesus H. Christ on a popsicle stick. This is just DeMaurice covering his @ss and advising agents to, you know, do their jobs and actually provide some financial advice to their 20-something year old CLs who have never seen money like this before. It would be irresponsible not to tell players there is a "possible" work stoppage since the CBA ends after the 2020 season, but by no means do I read this letter to suggest Smith thinks there will be a stoppage.
