Have You Ever Been Fired From a Job?
D. L. Hot-Flamethrower replied to Halloween Land's topic in Off the Wall Archives
Got fired from my summer painting job in college, not because of my work. It was because I recommended a buddy of mine for a job on the painting team. He turned out to be a real screwup as a painter. -
IMHO Josh Allen is ready to take the next step, and I worry that we don't have enough high level playmakers to make that happen. John Brown is getting covered over the top by a safety, until we can take the top off the D the windows are going to get tighter. Now if <insert name> were our number 1 and the Bills now have Brown , Beasley, Knox, Foster, Duke, McKenzie things get more interesting. I'm in favor of going all in if we can a playmaker who is a difference maker.

Gronk Hired as Analyst

Oh boy, maybe we'll get treated to Gronk, Booger and Favre together in the booth someday! -
What are we missing offensively?
D. L. Hot-Flamethrower replied to Ramza86's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I don't think this can be overstated, this offense looks more wide open and much tougher to defend when this is the case. This team could be really tough on offense with this type of receiver. -
Simply put, fantasy football, we now have a crowd that roots for numbers and as you say equates it with being elite. The problem of course being context or lack of attention to the context by many.

I feel the same as you do. IMHO these folks root for the model to be correct. Silly me, but they should be finding a way to utilize all the information. And, allow for the fact that there are variables that are just plain random or are hard, if not impossible, to account for. By all accounts, JA appears to have characteristics of a leader in spades, while inexperienced, his teammates and coaches want to play/work for him. Oh and BTW, the dude has some pretty good talent at his disposal. It's still early in his career, but I'm happy to say we took the correct Josh.

Weaknesses on the Offensive Line and their talent is not as prevalent as the media led us to believe

I think he faced the challenge from Kern and held up pretty well! -

Can we just do away with the Browns already? Too many prime time games! -
Josh Allen vs Bills History
D. L. Hot-Flamethrower replied to thenorthremembers's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I am a huge Allen fan and what excites me most is that he's on pace to go 13-3 this year. Yeah 4000 sounds nice! -
Niners win tonight will be very helpful
D. L. Hot-Flamethrower replied to PlayoffsPlease's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Jeez how many times is Cleveland on prime time? Sick of their act already. Go 49ers!!! -
It's actually a sign of limited emotional intelligence to not be able to admit being wrong and learn from it. Although most of these folks would never admit to being wrong at any point. I personally wanted Rosen because I believed finishing 6th in the WAC in completion % was a bad indicator. I was told you couldn't fix accuracy. What I didn't take into account was how raw, talented, and in possession of outstanding characteristics Allen is. I have admitted to being wrong and I am extremely pleased we drafted the Josh with the most upside. People invested in the media and with stats are focused on what worked in the past, what they are failing to realize is this is a new era and to stubbornly fail to adjust their thinking. The world is never as simple as a model. The people who realize this and take everything into account will come out ahead per usual. It's about the future and not the past repeating itself so you can claim the high ground.

Week 7 Against Miami - Allen's First 300 Yard Game
D. L. Hot-Flamethrower replied to H2o's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
If it will shut up the fantasy stats crowd I'm all in favor if it.
