Prickly Pete

I think the Bills will crush the Jets for a long time.

I use the eyeball test, and watch as the guys progress (or not). I am very happy with Josh Allen and his progress, and couldn't care less what the stats are. I haven't felt this way about ANY of the prior guys, since Kelly.

I expect them to finagle 4 picks in the first 3 rounds. I believe they will make 2 upgrades to the o-line. Probably a high pick and a FA. That would make a big difference, as each guy makes the others around him better. They are not going to bring in 3 new, better starters on the o-line. They have too many needs elsewhere. I think they will get a #1 receiver somehow. Probably with a second pick, maybe by trading up into the late 1st round. Definitely not with a Top 10 pick...there just isn't a WR worthy. Draft a RB in the first 3 rounds.

I hate to say it, but the top rated guys are almost all D-linemen. None of the Receivers are worthy of a top 10 pick. I doubt they will spend a Top 10 pick on an O-linemen. Kyle Williams is probably gone, or should retire regardless... If they keep the pick, probably the only way to get value is to select a D-linemen. It's a need, too.

Why do even Bills fans refer to Gronkowski by his silly frat boy nickname?

I hate hearing him called "Gronk" by the announcers. I don't think announcers or commentators should use players nicknames, like "TO" or "Big Ben" regularly.

This is next level

Peterman blows. And he will never match the real game performances that McCarron has on his resume, which includes a playoff game that was all but won before an officiating crew handed the game to the Steelers. Peterman will never get to that level. He blows.

He didn't say the whole Red uni, just the shirts...and he backs it up with some facts.

I wanted them to go after Cooper, but he wasn't playing very well, and trading away what is becoming a pretty high 1st pick could have blown up in their face. I'm not going to wring my hands over what they will do in the draft right now. I expect them to upgrade with a couple new starters on the O-line (say, a FA and a high pick), add another receiver (either a big name FA/trade, or a 1st pick), draft a RB in the 2nd or 3rd round, and try to get a decent TE somehow (most likely. an older FA). That would be my mindset going into the off-season, and I assume they have a similar outlook. Upgrading 5 positions on this offense would be a pretty big boost.

This is way worse.

Good idea. Anything else, or can we move on?

The sudden, mysterious, on-site death of a 22 year old Google software tech with no known health problems, is worthy of a mention considering the tenor of the times, and the role Google has taken on in the "resistance". I'm not making any outrageous claims or speculations, but just leaving it as a little note of an oddity. It may develop (most likely not), but your response was really quite dickish, considering that it falls in line with the general topics discussed in this thread.

Last time I heard from you, you were popping in out of nowhere, to let me know that I'm not worth responding to (ironically).

Hero Ball.

Some kind of "baggage" he is carrying from another thread, I'm guessing.

Why be a dick?

Good place for this... https://newyork-cbslocal-com.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/newyork.cbslocal.com/2018/12/08/22-year-old-found-dead-google/amp/?amp_js_v=a2&amp_gsa=1#referrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com&amp_tf=From %1%24s&ampshare=https%3A%2F%2Fnewyork.cbslocal.com%2F2018%2F12%2F08%2F22-year-old-found-dead-google%2F

Is a new thread needed for every contradiction from a politician? No one cares...

That would be worthy of discussion

"State secrets"? What makes it worthy of discussion? I don't know, maybe the conflicts involving all these people? Or the odd reactions from each person that looks at the note in the middle of a President's funeral? It seems odd that Obama didn't get one (AFAIK)...maybe the notes originated from him? It's a pretty interesting sequence of events.

I'm curious about who at the NRCC was involved in the decision to hire them.

They are now completely out of the playoff race

I think the offensive players are all executing the offense better, and it even made Barkley look good. Can't wait until next season. Add a few more pieces, and some continuity with the scheme...good times ahead!

Save it for when I die!
