  1. What's interesting to me is that some posters literally decided to die on that hill. Looking through that thread there was a guy named "T-Bomb", apparently a Tyrod fan, who was apoplectic after the Allen selection, made a ton of histrionic posts in the 24 hours following the selection, and then never made another post on the board again. This was a guy with over 1000 posts over the years. I wonder what happened to these fans.
  2. LOL. I was one of those people. I didn't really love Rosen, but I preferred him over Allen due to his pedigree. I'm a UCLA guy and knew that Rosen, despite his unlikability factor and occasionally suspect decisionmaking, could really spin the football. I saw a little of Allen in the Mountain West and wasn't particularly impressed with him as a QB. How wrong I was.
  3. Tier 1A: Mahomes Burrow Allen Tier 1B: Herbert Jackson Tier 2A: Purdy Hurts Stroud (maybe too high, but he looks ascendant) Tier 2B: Goff Stafford Cousins Prescott Tua Lawrence Tier 3: Mayfield Love Kyler Murray Tier 4: Wilson Carr Fields I've left off Rodgers since I have no clue what he really is at this point. I see him as more of a Tier 2B guy going forward.
  4. Travis is an especially cool, cocky dude. I hate him as a rival, but I'd love him to death if he was in a Bills' uniform.
  5. It's no paragon of musical virtuosity, but it is undeniably a classic of the rock and roll canon. It's the late Gen-x/early Millennial "Back in Black." And I'd take it any day over the jock rock staples of Gary Glitter or Start Me Up that I had to endure on game days for years as a kid.
  6. I am so sorry to hear this news, Scott. Our prayers are with you and your family.
  7. Mahomes is money. Also, love how their receivers come through in clutch after being trash all year
  8. Just seeing this now. So sorry for you and your family. Sending big prayers up from here in San Diego.
  9. It took John Wooden 16 years to win his first national championship at UCLA. He ended with 10. So there's still hope for McDermott, but it might not happen until Josh Allen's son is quarterbacking our team.
  10. Crazy you can produce 3 or 4 kids in a 76 day marriage these days. We live in a fast paced world.
  11. He's clearly too conservative and careful with the ball for us to take the next step.
  12. At the end of the day, we had 1st and 10 at the KC 27 yard line, 2:40 left on the clock, trailing by only 3 points against a tired defense that had already been on the field for 36 minutes of game clock. Given everything that came before that moment, both during the game and the season on the whole, that's a position we would all sign up for. Injuries or not, it was all right there for us and we crapped the bed.
  13. I'm kind of surprised as well. I attended a home December Monday night game against Denver back in 2005 or whereabouts (Losman was quarterbacking during another lost season). It was frigid. Probably in the teens. Me, my wife, sister and bro-in-law had finished tailgating and as we were walking into the stadium we notice a guy lying asleep on the ice, underneath a car without any pants or underwear on (thankfully, he had on a winter coat to keep him warm.). We go over and wake him up and ask him if he needs our help and he just smiles and says "Nope. I'm great! Just resting! Thanks!". LOL. We ran back to our car and donated a blanket to the poor guy and he continued to claim he was fine and that he was going into the game shortly. Eventually ran down a staff member and let him know about the guy and he said he'd take care of him.
  14. Most of us are still in a drunken stupor. Just you wait until we all wake up.
  15. Very odd story. I'm guessing this was a fentanyl OD or something and the homeowner didn't know what to do and/or was in denial about it. Or he actually killed them. THREE grown men don't just go out into their friend's yard and freeze to death.
  16. I win the PowerBall, grow 5 inches, get 20 years younger and my mansion has an endless supply of supermodels. Oh, we are talking about the Bills...
  17. It is my rose colored glasses take for sure. But we've seen other second year players (not named Elam) make big leaps in year two under McDermott. Fingers crossed.
  18. Bernard couldn't sniff the field as a rookie either and the staff has turned him into a potential cornerstone MLB. I like Williams' raw skills and intensity. He just needs to continue to learn, mature and become more disciplined. If his mindset is right, then I think he has a bright future.
  19. Nobody is forcing you to do anything. Some think it's a nice way of showing support for one of our players who is getting completely outrageous and uncalled for abuse. Listen, I'm as pissed and disappointed as anyone that Bass missed that kick. It's okay to vent some frustration on this message board, but for these @ssholes physically threatening Bass through his social media, I'd love to hold them accountable face-to-face.
  20. I don't think it was impatience. He had a shot and he took it. It just didn't work out. And on the subsequent 3rd down, Josh should have actually been less patient/safe and looked to run to get us into better field goal range.
  21. The defense has let him down and it isn't just bad luck. Bad luck is what happened to Marty Schottenheimer over the years with Ernest Byner and Marlon McCree fumbling away victories. What we witnessed over the last four playoff losses isn't bad luck. They have been complete failures in defensive game planning and/or execution.
  22. Correct. This loss lies almost entirely at the hands of Sean's defense. Yes, injuries are tough to overcome, but that was a historically bad performance we witnessed from our defense last night. If we hadn't played nearly perfect ball control offense for the majority of the night, there's no doubt that KC would have racked up 500 yards and 40+ points.
