You need a real offense to beat the Pats. Ravens have no shot. -
NFL fines Jordan Mills more than Kiko and Quinn

"NFL exercises scheduled fines correctly" could be another topic title. -
Stephon Gilmore - first team AP All-Pro

Richie, Wood, Glenn > Dawkins, who and who? Sammy, Woods, Goodwin > Foster, who and who? Silly argument. -
Allen's first 300 yard passing game - when?
BringBackOrton replied to SydneyBillsFan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Every stat has to be correlated to winning percentage adjusted for the NFL average to have any meaning at all. That’s quite specific, and in my opinion, very short-sighted. Every stat has meaning, in context. Brian Hoyer throwing for 300 yards on 60 passes in a blow out loss doesn’t have meaning, I agree. Peyton Manning, Tom Brady, Drew Brees and Dan Marino having the most career games over 300 yards passing does have meaning. But I guess taking an extreme position with zero room for context is more fun on TBD. -

Do you think it is a coincidence that 4 of the best QB's in NFL history ALSO have the most 300 yard games in the NFL? -
Stephon Gilmore - first team AP All-Pro
BringBackOrton replied to dave mcbride's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Well that's an interesting point. I think there's no denying that McD/Beane had a few players on a list who had a short leash. After the year ZB had, Pro Bowl-caliber, they barely wanted him at the vet min. Now, I have to believe that was mostly because of his business decisions at the tail end of 16. Likewise to Dareus, and Watkins, they were short leash players. It wasn't the talent that made McD want to blow them up. It was the character. -

If you took the end of the year 2016 roster and compared it position by position to this one, sans QB, it’s at the worst equal. -

Because it’s a bar napkin way to assess a players ability to win games with their arm. -
Shaq Lawson 5th year option on the table
BringBackOrton replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
The chance that they are bluffing, like I said. They can say whatever they want, until the decision is made. The difference is really between now and May lost in negotiation. That still leaves May 19 - May 2020 to negotiate if the option isn’t picked up. If you can’t get a deal done in a year, it wasn’t going to happen. -
Shaq Lawson 5th year option on the table
BringBackOrton replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I think the best thing to happen to Lawson would be to have the option exercised, that’s why. It’s free 1 year GTD money with hitting UFA immediately after. You’d call their bluff that they aren’t going to exercise it, because you want it. And if you start negotiating beforehand, you basically agree to come back without the option, which eliminates the reason to use it. -

Once they decline the option, they can negotiate an extension like normal. I’m sure they can technically open talks beforehand, but any agent worth his salt wouldn’t agree to anything before the option decision was finalized. Why give the Bills any more negotiation power? It’s like having a mini-franchise tag hanging over your head.
