  1. RGIII apparently wants in!
  2. Bengals have some terrible luck when it comes to QBs injuring hand ligaments Same thing happened to Andy Dalton when they were like 10-3 or something like that. He ended up missing the entire season and their one playoff game. Dalton was never really the same
  3. Josh Dobbs has become such a story in Minnesota. I'm happy for the guy, and added bonus, he isn't helping an AFC team!
  4. Rodgers did mention Tre White being at the "Achilles factory" with him and Dobbins a week or two ago on Mcafee's show
  5. to me, this has the feeling of either: 1) being on the verge of a Hollywood type turnaround where the Bills go on to win the Super Bowl 2) being on the verge of a total meltdown and chaos I can't see a win one, lose one, win one, lose one type outcome.
  6. sad to see star players go out for the season, even if it helps the Bills This just makes the product worse league wide.
  7. Interesting you mention Brady. I was recently watching this game between the 7-0 Colts and 6-1 Patriots from SNF in Foxborough in 2006. It reminded me that Tom Brady was once just a great football player, but a young guy who wasn't the basically perfect robot that he became once he hit 38 or 39 years old and never threw picks, never threw incomplete passes, and basically never lost. At least it seemed that way. He threw 4 INT at home this night, which wasn't usual for him, but he was a young, dynamic player who wasn't always perfect back then. That's your Josh Allens, Joe Burrows, Patrick Mahomes types now (not that they will become Brady). But Brady wasn't "Brady" then either. He was a top QB in the league, had won some Super Bowls, but wasn't anywhere near what he would become. He won more Super Bowls after age 37 than before. That's crazy.
  8. When it comes to Josh, maybe it's actually simple. A couple of years ago everything was new and fun, and he also had great relationships with a number of people who he no longer has. 1. He was with a woman he had been friends with since they were kids 2. He and Stefon were best buddies 3. Daboll was here as his grumpy but loveable uncle who knew how to push the right buttons at the right times and it all seemed to work 4. Everything was new. Stardom, money, accolades. Josh Allen was appointment TV. You never knew what he would do next, but he was going to put on a show. Some of this might just be changes in his life. He is no longer in that relationship. Daboll is gone. Stefon seems to always be pissed off at him. His game isn't quite where it was. The team is losing and the pressure is different. It's not new anymore, now there are real expectations. Not to be too corny, but we can all probably remember a time in life when everything was "magical." There's tons of movies and literature about that feeling, and what happens when we lose that feeling and things become mundane. Could be why he doesn't have the same look in his eyes, and I'm glad McDermott said it too, because everyone can see it.
  9. Bengals window might actually be closing. Gotta pay people now
  10. Beckham looks hurt. This season has been brutal with injuries and flags
  11. Loud mouths and dirty hits
  12. I like Lamar and would 100% root for him in the Super Bowl (because obviously the Bills couldn't be the opponent). But he'll never hold up. Heck Cam Newton,who looked like he was chiseled out of stone, was done by his late 20's
  13. Lamar is amazing but he's always going to be a shell of himself come playoff time due to nagging injuries
  14. Bengals are going to win Just my gut feeling, although it's almost always wrong... Lol
  15. Cool! When Frazier returns to the team this off-season we'll know this was all legit.
  16. As much as I love seeing the Bengals in agony, those were such BS DPI calls, but they almost always happen
  17. Yeah, he seems really on edge and almost nasty lately, which is (IMO anyway) different for him. He's always been an apologist for the team, but it's been easy the past few years for the most part until recently. I have thought for a long time that the WGR guys are just playing radio characters for the sake of having a better show. No two are really similar. I mean the main guys... the young guys just eagerly yap over everyone trying to get themselves a few seconds on air. It's almost pathetic to listen to.
  18. McDermott cleaned up the mess here, but the standard is not "be better than a 17 year playoff drought" He's 4-5 in the playoffs with a generational talent at QB. The team went the farthest early on and has failed to get that far every year since. AFC Title Game Divisional round Wildcard Possibly fail to make the playoffs That's not good enough.
  19. Eventually every coach runs his course, just the nature of the business. I am of the opinion that Andy Reid is the true GOAT, given that he went to Super Bowls with 2 different teams and 2 different QBs, has an extensive coaching tree of successful coaches, and will likely be somewhere in the top 3 of all-time HC wins by the time he retires (with a realistic shot at being #1), and he didn't even have Mahomes until he was in his 60's. Even he ran his course in Philly. Belichick won 6 Super Bowls and went to 9 with NE and a few years after his last SB win he's about to be let go. 6 Super Bowl wins! McDermott did a good job cleaning up the mess and restoring a sense of respectability here. But honestly, he's won jack squat that matters with a top 3 QB in the NFL who is a generational talent, and the team is a disaster that is going backwards.
  20. I think the Bills actually have a pretty good OL, especially based on what's there for OL across the league
  21. 100% McDermott Everyone other than Terry Pegula works for him, regardless of what the "organization flow chart" says. I mean in actual practice. This is Sean's team, plain and simple. What he wants with the football program he gets. Pegula worships the man. McDermott won a couple of playoff games with a generational talent at QB, so he is set for life here.
  22. EVERY COACH under the ago of 60 will be fired from his current NFL job. Hell, even Belichick could be fired after this year. He actually won things. Lots of them. McDermott has led the Bills to a few playoff berths. He has won nothing of consequence. So it's a matter of time, as always. Question is can McDermott lead the Bills to a Super Bowl?
  23. TV job seems like a great way to stay involved with the game. Everyone loves you, you only need to work a few days a week (travel and prep, plus the game), and you make good $. As soon as the season is over you're basically off until next summer. Best of all, you always win, every week! You would have to really, really want to coach to give that all up.
  24. Sal is unlistenable when things aren't going well, because he will defend McDermott and the organization no matter what. His favorite thing to do if someone criticizes McDermott is to jump on them and talk over them saying "who would YOU hire? Who would you hire?" Who? Who? Who? When the team is winning Sal is a fun listen though, because he's in his element praising the team.
