  1. So why can't I just spraypaint the helmet any damn color I want? What constitutes this "2nd helmet" so that you don't have more that "one" helmet?

     

    Maybe "you" can? That's something you should ask the Bills equipment manager about.

     

    However as it stands, the NFL will not allow a 2nd helmet.

  2. We use the standing buffalo on the throwback.

     

    That's the regular helmet with the decals switched out. IE: One helmet.

     

    The Packers have to strip the decals off their yellow helmet when they wear their throwbacks instead of using a separate brown helmet. The Bucs can't wear their throwbacks because they have to use their one helmet and it doesn't match. The Rams use their current helmet and switch the gold ram decals to the yellow ones even though the color is a bit off.

  3. Meh, I always believe you can't consider someone a "bust" when they aren't a 1st round pick.

     

    Goodwin is a track star. He's a speed demon in a straight line but he's not a very good football player. He runs average routes, isn't very fluid in his breaks, has average hands etc. He's just a gifted athlete who isn't good at football. No bigs.

  4. He is more of a runner than a thrower and viewed as a product of the system are some of the common criticisms.

     

    I agree he is the best since Luck but strongly disagree that he will be a better pro than Luck. In year 3 Luck has moved into the conversation for top 5 (active) qbs this year.

     

    Not really true. Mariota is a fantastic passer and the "system" he's in is the exact same system that Chip Kelly has made successful in the NFL. Mariota is going to be a great pro. Outside of his obvious talents, he's extremely studious and a cerebral player. He loves the game and doesn't bring any baggage, emotional or mechanical.

     

    I wouldn't say he'll be a better pro than Luck (Luck and Mariota are 2 of the best players I've ever had the pleasure of watching live) but he'll be a successful pro. IMO Mariota will be like Russell Wilson where he'll play mistake free football and be extremely efficient as opposed to someone who throws for 350 yards per game.

  5. Orton @ QB Bills 17, Packers 24

     

    Any other Bills QB Bills 27, Packers 24

     

    oh ..

     

    and people can keep your useless passing yards as a marker for a great QB and offense. Those stats are so misleading its' ridiculous.

     

    Orton ties or breaks records in a game then LOSES!!!!!

     

    So you're saying the 355 yards he threw for when Denver was playing softer defense because they were up 24-3 going into the 4th last weekend mean nothing?

  6. If Tom Brady and Peyton Manning belong in the GOAT conversation, so does Rodgers. Year after year, AA-Rod performs at ridiculous levels, and while people recognize him as great, he remains under-appreciated.

     

    If I had to win a game tomorrow, I'd take 2014 Rodgers over any other quarterback in NFL history.

     

    If Marino/Elway/Montana were able to play quarterback with the rules in place today, with the athletes there are today, I'd take any of them.

     

    Rodgers is amazing, he does everything well, but he's also playing in an age where DB's aren't allowed to cover anyone.

  7. He also beat his man off the line and was wide open on the last play of the game when Orton missed him by a couple yards which would have been 4 defining plays in 8 wins and maybe a playoff berth.

     

    He's a great player and will be for a decade barring serious injury. It was and is and will remain a great trade IMO.

     

    If Watkins had a good QB throwing to him he'd be a lot more productive than he is right now (and that's darn productive).

     

    Sammy has been targeted 110 times and has an embarrassing 58 catches on those targets. 58 receptions is really good for a rookie receiver, but Watkins, based on the amount of targets thrown his way, should have a lot more.

  8. Indeed...his cap number balloons to over $17M at the start of the new league year. He wants an extension, not a renegotiated contract, which I believe the Rams are pushing for...very likely he hits the UFA market.

     

    I think it's very likely Bradford hits the market. The Rams seem to be done with him.

     

    He'd look good in a Bills uniform. If (big if) he can stay healthy, he can be a good quarterback.

  9. Oh man, Friday, I really wanted an egg salad sandwich and I was just obsessing about it and I was like, 'Man, I'm gonna make one of those.' So Saturday, I went out and got, like, a dozen eggs and then I boiled them all and I just, I spent, I dunno, probably three hours, like three and a half hours making, you know, the mayonnaise, and the onions and paprika and, you know, the necessary accoutrement. And then, by the time I was done, I didn't really feel like like eating it.
