Just so I have this correct - we once drafted a kid that didn't win a single game in his senior season and that was cool, but this kid leads an epic comeback win but somehow that's not good enough?
-
Man I love the kid's moxy. If we are going to burn a 1st rounder on QB1 in 2018 I'd want it to be with a kid like this. For a city and a fanbase that requires resiliency he showed that in spades tonight.

To the OP:
You're looking at the US model (GFS) which isn't all that reliable that far out and is run every 6 hours with those model runs constantly changing. The European model (which is better but not perfect) has it possibly recurving northward and away from the US. Irma has taken a slight southwest dip which makes early trajectory forecasts difficult at this time. Most of my friends in the weather community think we're a good 24-48 hours away from really knowing what will happen with Irma and until that time frame passes most model guidance is essentially computer generated speculation. Case in point, if the cold shot of air we're supposed get midweek here in the northeast is timed right it may be enough to keep Irma from hitting the coast. If the timing is off, Irma could hit the coast, but we still won't know where for a few days.
This. Anything beyond day 5 from now is a guess / coin flip, regardless of model, although personally I would put a little more stock in the ECMWF models than the GFS. It's going to crush the Bahamas but in terms of US landfall it could be a just fish storm in the Atlantic or it could be a Cat 5 hitting the coast. It is still too soon to tell.
That said, even if BUF/CAR is moved due to weather, it's not going to be to Orchard Park. It would be a Monday Night game at a neutral site, i.e. Ford Field.

He looked like he didn't want to be here from the moment he was selected.

Who could have guessed Jeff Tuel would have ended up starting for games for the Bills than Kevin Kolb and Tavaris Jackson combined.
In Bills history, I'd rank Tuel above Billy Joe Hobert, but below Gale Gilbert, Travis Brown, and Brian Brohm.
-
Keep your head up Jeff - word on the street is the Pats are in need of a QB for the first few weeks of the season. Just sayin'.

Hey, I remember when Mark Chmura pulled this move on Bill Clinton. Good times.
-
Just the fact that there are players such as Crabtree that are asking to come here is a refreshing sea change

New england, they think the bills are a joke and rex makes then a bigger joke.
Same reaction I've gotten from my co-workers in Boston. Sports talk radio in this town sees this as just one more example that the Bills are a laughingstock and not to be taken seriously. "Be glad you glad you aren't a fan of that team" was one of the lines used.
I don't consider Pats fans to be particularly astute or nuanced, since football was invented in 2001 for almost all of them. So I'm not surprised by the reaction.

No one else can hold a candle to him!

The closest example I can think of is Bill Belichick quitting as HC of NYJ on his first day on the job, then immediately becoming the head coach of the Pats.
There was never any tampering charges against the Pats, and Belichick swears that he didn't already have the HC job lined up for the Pats, he just "wasn't comfortable with the situation in New York" (wink wink, nudge nudge).

Wrong player
Yeah, sorry about that... that was the immortal Bryce Brown. On the plus side, crow tastes delicious this time of night.
-
On the plus side, "The Gase Face" would be a great fantasy football team name and ode to old-skool rap.

I take it one of the other 146 reasons wasn't fumbling at the goal line against Kansas City.
Don't get me wrong, I love me some Boobie D - but that cost big time this season.
-
Why the hell was he listening to local radio? I bet he thought after the Packers win, WGR would be singing his praises. Haha, whoops.
EDIT: Oh,and welcome to New Jersey Doug.
Good question. What head coach - in any sport - should ever take seriously what is said on sports talk radio about them?

Yes, but only so Parcells can then claim that he worked for every team in the AFC East.
-
Bill Belichick quit on the Jets after one day.
Nick Saban quit on Michigan State, then LSU, then the Dolphins.
The point is, you can go back on your word, be world class dink, and still be a good coach. Marrone so far has proven to be the first two, it remains to be seen if he is the third.

The last convertable I bought was a LeBaron that had been owned by Jon Voight.
Do you have a pencil with his bite mark too?

I look forward to this every year.
It is also a great reminder of a what a dink Rick Rilley is.

#Bills are continuing to shop for QBs, looking for a #2.
The problem is all of our QBs have been a #2

Can Bon Jovi even place a bid given his known plan to move the team to Toronto? And what was discussed at that lunch between Bon Jovi and Roger Goodell? One could envision Comm Goodell, in not so many words, letting it be known that Toronto would stand a strong chance of getting a team when the NFL expands to London etc... so perhaps Bon Jovi's Group decides to not submit a bid knowing that Pegula has both the $$$ and the Will to see this thing through... Financing a new stadium in Toronto is gonna be tricky given current financial constraints there... It doesn't hurt to have Chuck Shumer's influence and the backing of Gov Cuomo either... Bon Jovi's Group may realize that moving the Bills is simply too costly to seriously pursue...
When we talk about Bon Jovi's group - I would argue that MLSE needs Jon Bon Jovi more than he needs MLSE in this process. If the Bills don't go to MLSE (hopefully likely), then he will simply move on to the next consortium in the next city looking to purchase an NFL team that is up for sale. JBJ's seemingly stated goal is to become an NFL owner, and the particular city or team invovled I believe is agnostic to that goal.
I can't help but wonder if the meeting was more Goodell providing future advice in this regard to ownership - because more NFL will come up for sale - as oppossed to it being specific to the Bills.
Or, it could be Bon Jovi was scribbling down song lyrics that came to his head for his next record.
Josh Rosen, not worth a 2018 1st rounder.

Hey OP, barring catastrophic injury I'd bet my entire 401k that Rosen is going to be a 1st rounder... and he will be, unless Roger Goodell issues a decree that Buddy Ryan's ghost is the GM of all 32 NFL teams.
