  1. I really enjoyed this interview. I was impressed with how easy he went over plays and remembered everything about it. I loved when he talked about his second TD against LSU and how it was a play he wanted the coaches to run. "There was an option to run into the middle of the field, I'm not worried about any of that. Straight fade, let's go up and get it." We need Allen to get comfortable with Keon and learn to trust him and let Keon make plays while covered.
  2. I know I'm going to show my age, but I hate how much gambling is shoved into people's faces. I'm okay with gambling, but how much it is glamorized is unfortunate.
  3. These are from players ranking the different categories, solid overall. I'm surprised by the food/nutritionist part. Every "First 24 hours" or other video like to talk about the cafeteria and all the options they have. Time for Pegula to write a check.
  4. I wonder if he and Peppers were the last two sport college athletes. They were fun to watch play basketball, especially Peppers, he was an animal in the paint.
  5. I'm curious to see if the design of the new stadium does in fact keep the wind down inside of the stadium. Cold and some precipitation is one thing, but the insane wind is what really mucks up these games.
  6. Nothing to add except Ed is awesome. I think this is the benefit of such a heavy rotation throughout the year. He should still have plenty of juice.
  7. I realized how much of a football junkie I am when I saw this post and remembered there's football on tonight. It's probably going to be a ***** game and I don't like either team, but I will turn it on.
  8. Taron is a stud and I won't stand by while he is slandered.
  9. The move to blue jersey and white pants is the most important change to the team this year, besides McD taking over as DC. Obviously a hyperbole, but I love the change. This combo is soooooo much better looking than the all blue. Sure, do all blues maybe once a year, but these need to be the primary home combination. I also like how the players are changing up their socks a bit. In years past they would be just about all blue or all white. If you see Flyod he's got half white and half blue, Milano does more while at the bottom. I wish they'd bring back some stripes too. Letting them change up the socks a bit allows them to look different, but also all look good as a team. I absolutely hate how in the NBA they have neon shoes that are a complete opposite color of their uniforms, it looks like *****. Yes, I am aware I pay too much attention to the uniforms, I don't know what to tell you.
  10. All I hear is Chris Berman's "Whoop!" I love how our LB's are so tough to get a hand on at the second level.
  11. The much more likely scenario is they extend his contract in the offseason. They aren't going to cut him and rely on a rookie to block Josh's blind side. Now, if after the year he balloons and gets fat and quits on football, sure he could be cut. Or if after next year he asks for $16 million plus, they'll let him walk, but otherwise he'll be on the team next year. I see "Let's cut this vet for cap space" ideas on this forum. When was the last time Beane actually did that? Especially a drafted and developed player like Dawkins.
  12. I loooooove primetime games. As a father of 2, day games consists of both girls constantly asking for tickles or for me to read a book to them while my wife occasionally says, "stop messing with Dad" while playing on her phone. Primetime games I can relax, drink a beer without fear of someone throwing themselves at me and spilling it everywhere, and give the game my full attention.
  13. I'd be surprised of Taron gets big money from somewhere else. He's already 27 and his last deal with the Bills was 3 years for $24 million. I'd expect something similar again from the Bills, maybe this offseason to avoid getting to free agency. Someone mentioned it a while back, but the flow of the entire D is awesome to watch. Their spacing is on point and everyone is doing there 1/11th. I also loved the run play where Bernard stands in the hole for a split second and then darts into the next gap as soon as the running makes a cut. As soon as Bernard leaves that gap, Taron comes flying in through there while Bernard helps stop the runner in the next gap. Not to dog on Tremaine too much, I was always a fan, but this is rough. Bernard just seems to fit in this defense better than Tremaine did, especially with McD calling a more aggressive game. I was worried about Bernard dropping into deep zones, but even that he looks like he's excelling by reading the QB and having a great feel for zone D.
  14. That game was absolutely incredible to watch. Mac stunk up the joint, then Zappe comes in and scores two TD's and the crowd was going absolutely bonkers. They found their guy! The rest of NE drives went Fumble - Zappe Punt - 3 and out Punt - 3 and out Interception Interception The score after Zappe's two TD's, 14-10, final score, 33-14.
  15. Last year felt like they were trying to run it back with the 2021 squad with just a few tweaks. Who knows how it would have panned out had all of the adversity not occurred and they were a little bit more healthy in the playoffs. I wonder if they got a little complacent last year during the offseason as well. They were right there and probably felt if they kept business as usual, they could get back to where they were with some tweaks. This year feels different. The doubters are out in full force and there's a massive chip on their shoulder. Josh, Diggs, McD, Dawkins, Poyer (On one of the embedded McD comments on much stronger his legs look), and I'm sure a lot more all seem to have a new level of focus. This isn't running back last year's squad, this feels like almost a new team. The offense is going to be different with a HR hitter as RB1, 12 personnel with a true slot option, not to mention (please baby Jesus) a better O-line, better WR depth, and year two of Dorsey. The defense should look different without Fraizer and Edmunds. There will be some growing pains with the MLB position, but I'm excited to see what it looks like. Edmunds best attribute was sitting back and reading and reacting. I think a lot of what they did was based off of this. At times we're definitely going to miss it because he was damn good at a bunch of things, but hopefully we see some more aggressive play from the MLB position and more creativity on blitzes and coverages. Suffice to say, I'm super mother f^<#!ng pumped for this year.
