  1. No clue how things work in the Buffalo area. I would assume that, if it were to be blacked out, it’ll be blacked out and shown on WRGZ or w/so it’s called (the local broadcast)
  2. Yeah that was part of it too. I knew I was moving to a city without a bills bar and might be relegated to watching games at home. With my BBFS telling me if would be just our luck to have 💯 of the peacock only games, I decided $20 was worth it. as it turns out, my old Bills bar is only a 2 hour drive and a nice way to clear my head and relax in solitude. I won’t be making the trip today due to the holidays, so I’ll be getting some usage out of that $20
  3. Because I know the bills tight ends are good. Knox isn’t great but he’s a proven playmaker. He’s a TE getting paid more than Juju. Kincaid is good. Not very good yet, but I think that’s more based on his usage. They aren’t allowing him to run downfield as often as he should be. Your old cane QB KD had visions of Larry centers when scheme for Kincaid. 1 yard routes. That’s not on Kincaid. Brady didn’t use his TE very much at LSU or Carolina. hopefully he can figure out how to get those 2 involved. Brady has unlocked James Cook though. He’s been excellent. He’s a top 5 RB this year. Some would say top 2-3. He’s a weapon. regarding your last sentence- agree to disagree. I think we have 2 special playmakers in Diggs and cook. I think Kincaid just needs to be unlocked and we have 3. I think knox and gabe are above average #4,5 options. All behind a now very solid OL. I think the playmakers still have 3+ games to change the narrative that they aren’t on par.
  4. I don’t cry about it. I think to myself- it sucks that I had to pay $20. Then I accept that this is the model of the times and it’s likely to continue. I would never cry about it on a message board. But then again, signing up and cancelling only took me 2 minutes. If that wasn’t the case for you, I can understand the inconvenience. My mother, who’s 76, wouldn’t even be able to sign up for peacock. So I can understand why someone who isn’t tech savvy would be frustrated Personally, I’ve spent $20 on countless bad meals that I didn’t even enjoy. I’ll enjoy the game and it’ll last 3 hours. I’ll then also have access to peacock for a year. For about the price of a game of bowling or a potentially bad meal.
  5. Point well taken. Not sure if that point was brought up previously, I was just replying to a quote on page 1-2. I can understand the frustration i dont agree that it will become overkill. I think it’ll be more frustrating and it will weed some fans out. Not enough to stop them from making more money than their losing by alienating some
  6. And gabe Davis was huge for us during playoff runs. Doesn’t mean he’s great. it seems as if your overly obsessed with WR2. Andy Reid wasn’t last season when he won a Super Bowl with zero good WRs. 0. Who was the eagles WR2 when they won the SB? who was the patriots WR2 when they won in 17 and 19. who was the chiefs WR2 when they won both of their SBs. tampa had a great wr2 You can include Gronk, ertz and Kelce in there…. But that just negates your argument the bills not having a good WR2. We have a very dangerous TE combination. We have a better RB than all of those teams too. None of the SB champion RBs on the teams mentioned are as good as James cook. As a runner or a reciever. I don’t believe history reflects what you’re suggesting. I get your point and I know how’ve you’ve felt about our WR sitch…..and I agree with you that it’s not up to par, but I believe we’ve invested in 2 very good playmakers in Cook and Kincaid. They aren’t WRs per se but their potential in the passing game is ridiculous. our offensive potential is on par with nearly all of the champions in recent years imo.
  7. Yeah he’s a stud. I loved him in college. I was talking about the rams WRs during their SB title season I was talking about the year they won the SB.
  8. Their playmakers don’t stack up to the Rams? I disagree. They have a better WR2 (who missed most of the game). Van Jefferson is a jag. Skowronek is a jag. Brycen Hopkins was their TE1. Henderson was out of the league a year later. Akers is close. WR - Kupp was better than Diggs is right now. The other WRs are slightly better than ours. Advantage Rams. RB- Akers coming off achilles and still hasn’t recovered. Henderson = Jag. Cook is 3rd in the nfl in yards from scrimmage, only trailing 2 mvp candidates. Advantage Bills TE- no comparison- advantage Bills. We can also talk about the chiefs of last year……. But I’m sure you’ll just find a way to say that Juju is good. Their WRs were bums last season. They were saved by Jerrick Mckinnon being their 2nd best offensive player the last quarter of the season. Mahomes, Kelce, Reid and Spags won the SB. Take away Juju and add rice this season…..and now everyone says their WRs are the problem. They were a problem last year too. Masked by the greatness of the big 4 I’d take this group of Bills playmakers over the last two SB champs playmakers.
  9. The bolded is just laughable. “Inconvenienced”. I signed up and cancelled my account in less time than it takes to go to my mailbox and walk back into the house. If that’s an “inconvenience” to you, you live a very easy life. Grats. This decision didn’t have user experience in mind. It had money in mind……and they made more money than they would’ve had had they not made the deal with Peacock. Not every decision a business makes is based on user experience. Every decision they make has money in mind. I don’t like the fact that I bought a years worth of peacock for $20. I merely accept it and move on with my life rather than cry about it. I have accepted that the NFL is focused on making as much money as they can. I don’t like that the nfl plays games in UK, Germany and soon to be Brazil. I just accept it, because I realize they are a business that’s trying to make more money. That’s what businesses do. Find new opportunities to make more money. sorry that I offended you
  10. Thanks for putting in the work! That’s something I wanted to know 💯
  11. It’s alienating which part of the fan base? The part that refuses to pay $6? The part that refuses to acknowledge and accept change? your reasoning behind feeling this way is ridiculous. It’s business. Make more money. They are. Success. Whether you like it or not. Sorry
  12. Triggered? lol. Negative. $6 IS most definitely THE point. What do you think the point is? A business trying to maximize its potential? Is greed the point? If so, wake up a take a look around. That’s life my man
  13. He played pretty well vs KC too imo. He was stifled on a fair share, but he forced 3 incompletions, 2 of which were on 3rd down and the 3rd was the play after Kadarious Failure. Massive play
  14. You’re welcome. You need a kick in the pants for crying about change. “Wah, things aren’t what they used to be”. Be thankful that you can watch your team play wherever you are. Remember when that wasn’t an option? Sorry, I can’t get behind people crying about paying $6 extra to watch one of your favorite past times. $6……..get 6 of your friends together and have them chip in $1 each. You won’t have to pay a penny
  15. That’s so lame. Was looking forward to watching that game on NYE
  16. Smart guy. If you want him, pay him. That kind of money shouldn’t matter for a HC that doesn’t count against the cap imo. If teams want him bad enough, they’ll pay him that. And they will college kids are getting paid millions to play college sports nowadays. Then they transfer and make millions more if they aren’t happy. USC paid Malachi Nelson millions to take classes at USC and watch USC games….. he then said “see ya” and entered the transfer portal. You would. Terry has his coach
  17. Then prefer to pay or cry about it. I pay. I have no problem with it. Apparently some would rather just cry about it than watch it illegally with 0% chance of getting caught
  18. Chargers have opened the 21 day window to activate Joey Bosa. 😱
  19. The chiefs won a SB with just that last year. Unless you think JuJu is that much better than Rashee rice that it would bump them up a notch. OT certainly looks like the chiefs playmakers are below average this season, no?
  20. Nah, I think he/she’s just a very vocal pessimist that suffers from ptsd and some egocentrism
  21. That has nothing to do with my feelings about him. Thanks though
  22. I think von will bring it when we need him most
  23. I think he’ll get around that aav. Years don’t mean much though. The players only care about gtd money imo. i think he should be happy if he gets 28-30M guaranteed
  24. They’ve changed so much you can watch every nfl game, nba game, soccer game, nhl game, mlb game, ufc fight and boxing match from the comforts of you own home for free. if you don’t want to (or can’t) pay, you don’t have to. It can all be free
