    This is one of the most ridiculous takes I've ever seen. And you gathered all of that grand intelligence from one story about a split pair of pants. Is this like Will Hunting looking at a painting on the wall in his psychiatrist's office? :lol: And the locker room comment is even more outrageous when you listen to anyone and everyone in that building. :rolleyes: Have you every heard ANYONE talk negatively about his work ethic in regards to football? Dumb, just dumb.

     

    You act like JA should be football 24-7-365 for his entire career without any kind of life whatsoever outside of the game. Girlfriend? Nope. Only football. Eating out? Nope. Nutritionist making every meal, even living inside your fridge to hand you that 2:00am healthy snack. Oh yeah, and football. Traveling to various places across the world, with a girlfriend, and eating out while you're there. O-M-GEEEEEEE!!!!!!! Nope, Nope and NOPE!!!! Crucify him!!!!! 

     

    Tom Brady took all kinds of trips with his family, to various places, and showed up at a lot of these same events you're talking about (yes, all before he was retired). How many rings does that guy have? Mahomes does as well. In fact there are numerous athletes all at these same events, many of them champions, and they ALL have a life outside of their respective sport. There is a reason it's called the "off season" and it's the first week of March my guy.

     

    I'm not sure if it's jealousy, envy, or maybe you're just not happy with where you're at, or what you're able to do. Whatever it is, I hope you can get past that. Or maybe find yourself a team with a QB who walks that chalk line with no personal life whatsoever. Well wishes and happy hunting.

    Great. Our QB is back at trying to eat his way out of the NFL again. :rolleyes:

    The party boy/laziness he displays in the off season and goofiness early in games might actually be a locker room issue.  Tre White busts his ass trying to get back from multiple serious injuries and gets cut.  Morse has multiple concussions and is a team leader…..bye.  I get that those things are all 100% part of the business and in no way Allen’s fault, but….

     

    Meanwhile the QB spends last year trying to out fancy everyone at the Kentucky Derby, F1, Hollywood, a celebrity golf tourney every other day and whatnot, shows up for week 1 and turns the ball over 100 times.  Did he learn from that?   Well, he’s dining so well  in France with his Hollywood girlfriend that his pants he packed a few days ago don’t fit anymore.  Odds are he’s learned nothing.

     

    Clearly he is among the most talented QBs in the league now and possibly ever.  He carries the team to wins on that talent at times.  His on field effort level 95+% of the time can’t be questioned, but setting a team up for a championship is a 24/7/365 thing.  Allen might just be more of a 8/5/195 effort level type.  Before anyone says I want to trade him or whatever, I don’t.  Guys like that don’t grow on trees and with his talent he might be able to win even with his subpar commitment.  If he handles things a little more professionally, he almost certainly will.  He often talks about his tremendous desire to bring a trophy to Buffalo but that appears to be talk or at least slightly below his tremendous desire for another piece of tiramisu.

    This is kind of where I’m at. The beauty of an offer sheet is where you can take advantage of the current team’s cap situation. It’s what the Bears tried to do to the Bills a couple of years ago with Bates. The Bills did match but it wasn’t an easy decision. 
     

    Any offer that the Bills can make, the Patriots can EASILY match if they value the player at that level. If they let Digger walk, it’s probably because you overpaid for him. Otherwise, you’re just negotiating on their behalf. 
     

    If you like Dugger, as we know they do, go ahead an take a run at him. Be mindful though, that an early offer would tie up your cap space through the first week(ish) of FA. You’ll miss lots of other opportunities in that span. If the Pats then match, you’re left holding the bag. It doesn’t make a lot of sense unless he drags into FA for a little while and the Bills miss other targets.

    This  makes sense but is overly complicated.  I have been reading on this board for years that DBs simply have no place in the great game of football and our obsession with them as a team has led to horrible thing including, but not limited to, world hunger.   Why not keep it simple and ban DBs from Buffalo rather than getting caught up in the details?

    I'm reading through the thread here and getting an idea for a cool TV series..

     

    Set when there were multiple "human like" species wandering around the Earth.  That's a weird and creepy time in the evolution of man.

     

    With modern CGI and special effects, I bet you could get the various character to look quite convincing.

     

    Imagine if you could go out in the woods today and find 99% human-like creatures...that weren't human!

     

    Weird!

     

     

    Subtract 7 or 8 percent off that 99 and you’re basically talking about Canadians.

    Doc.... how can you call 29-28-4 a losing record, sorry I don't agree with your  math. They are playing at .508

    Canadian math does.  
     

    29-28-4 = 62 points 

     

    I looked it up, the Sabres are 4-0-4 in OT this year so….

     

    Sabres opponents record is 32-25-4 = 68 points

     

    We have earned 62 points and our opponents have earned 68.  How is that .500?

    They are 31-30 = 62 points.

     

    29-32 = 58 points.

     

    As of today,  Sabres have 62 points.

    Your Canadian style math assumes games are worth two points but that’s not true.  Wins are worth two points but many games carry a three point value.

  7. There will be a Hopkins-esque shiny object free agent receiver who, like Hopkins, will profess his desire to win and who, like Hopkins, will have a ridiculous 300 page thread on this board and who, like Hopkins, will sign with one of the worst teams in football for an extra $1.
