12/1/2024 Bills vs. 49’ers post game thread
SoMAn replied to BuffaloBill's topic in The Stadium Wall
I had the same “oh *****” thought about that. What is the NFL policy on players participating in fantasy? -
12/1/2024 Bills vs. 49’ers post game thread
SoMAn replied to BuffaloBill's topic in The Stadium Wall
65-31 In consecutive weeks against the 2 defending conference champs. 5th straight division title. Fire McDermott. -
It’s not that great these days, especially when you get 1099’ed. Maybe give a bonus for the ones who don’t pull out their phones to check social media every 3 minutes.
-
I know who cares the least....me. I don't care if a Bill wins the Lady Bing Trophy. The Lombardi is the only award that I'm concerned with.
-
All of the above other than MVP. Team first. I also am tat-less. Not against them, just feel there’s better ways to spend money. I’ve stated I’ll get that tat with the Lombardi, the logo, Roman numerals. score, and date. Maybe include locale if design doesn’t get too busy. I will find a real pro to do the work and pay top dollar to get something with great artistic integrity. For this- it must stand out and have ‘wow factor’. Of course, I’ll need to leave room to ink Roman numerals for subsequent championship years. 😉

Including live view... at least 25 times, including multiple angles. Still not as many times as I've watched 'wide right', stupidly somehow expecting a different outcome.
-
With Atlanta nearby and Carolina a 4-hour drive away, hoping the schedule is conducive to attending one or both of those games. I'd be pissed if they make either of them international games, though I'm guessing it's unlikely with the Bills scheduled for 9 home games. I'm thinking either of those games may seem like a home game with massive representation by the southern contingent of Bills' mafia in attendance.

Here’s a very possible, maybe even likely scenario: Dolphins have 2 games before the Bills face 49ers a week from next Sunday night. Should the fish lose either game, the Bills can (and should) clinch their 5th straight AFC East title. I think McDermott has something close to a perfect record following the bye. They’ll be at home, rested, with (presumably) key players returning to action. Less than bold prediction- Bills get title and 7th playoff appearance in 8 years. That would include 6 consecutive playoff appearances , equaled only in Bills’ history by the ‘88-‘93 teams. The vision of the 17 year drought is fading fast in the rear view mirror. Getting to a Super Bowl is not easy. Winning is even harder. I don’t know if the Josh/McDermott Bills will experience it, but I like their chances a whole lot better than I did in the years leading up to Beane’s and McDermott’s arrival.

Since I haven’t bothered to watching any Bears games, is anyone here able to give an honest assessment of Edmunds effectiveness with that team? FWiW, I thought he was a bust when all the apologists were excusing his age and whatnot. My perception was that he had poor instincts and wasn’t very tenacious. He was, however, really good at being the third man in on tackles. 🙄

11/17/24 Game 11 GAMEDAY! Bills vs Chiefs 1st Half Thread
SoMAn replied to BuffaloBill's topic in The Stadium Wall
I’m starting to wonder if Sam Martin is the problem. I noticed that the ball seem tilted when Bass hit it. Bass’s problems began about the same time. Sam Martin came on the scene. -
Week 11, Chefs v. Bills, PREDICT THE SCORE!
SoMAn replied to Freddie's Dead's topic in The Stadium Wall
Chiefs 28 Bills 17 -
FWIW, in the ‘big dub’ post-game, walking through tunnel to locker room vid that the media dept puts out, Kincaid was walking alongside Knox, and I didn’t notice any hint of a limp or discomfort. Whether the injury is minor enough that it wouldn’t effect typical activity, but not for the demands of playing TE remains to be seen.
-
I stand corrected. I was thinking that was the AFC championship game. Ancient history. But, regardless of any one game or how it factors into a legacy, how many of you would accept Burrow straight up in a trade for Josh? That’d be a big ‘hell no’ from me.
-
It’s a bit arbitrary to rate Burrow ahead of Allen based on winning an AFC title. Should Allen be rated lower after defense blew it in 13-second game? What more could Josh have done?

Best End of Season Scenario for Bills
SoMAn replied to Rich Stadium Original's topic in The Stadium Wall
Assuming they’re in the playoffs (not exactly a stretch). -
Speaking of Pat Summerall….his daughter, Susie (Summerall) Wiles, will be the chief of staff in the incoming administration.

Josh’s TD run was MVP awesome, before Josh was robbed again.
SoMAn replied to Pete's topic in The Stadium Wall
Again, I may be wrong, but the market restriction thing was in effect when I've tried to use the WGR/Audacy app on-line, but I believe that's not the case when accessing the the Bills' own web site. Just remembered, I did pull up the WGR broadcast (I'm in Atlanta) and synched it up with the TV broadcast a couple of weeks ago. You should be able to get it through the Bills site. -

SoMAn replied to Pete's topic in The Stadium Wall
If I'm not mistaken, you can listen to the WGR broadcast live through the Buffalobills.com website. -
I don't necessarily agree. I think most fans actually do appreciate his guidance and success with our team over his 7.5 seasons. It's just the uninformed dissidents that are the most vocal.

11/3/24 Game 9 GAMEDAY! Bills vs Dolphins Post Game Thread
SoMAn replied to BuffaloBill's topic in The Stadium Wall
I think the Bills were a.500 team after suffering a lot of injuries to key players. They were breaking in replacements when they went on their run. They had additional motivation following a hit piece on their coach. Look at it this way: the Bills have 4 remaining home games. They're reasonably healthy, and should be in even better shape with the pending return of Cooper, Benford, and later, possibly Milano by the end of the year. If they win only 2 of their remaining 8 games, the Jets would have to win 7 of their remaining 8, and the Dolphins would need to win 8 of 9 to overtake the Bills. Unless catastrophic injuries hit the Bills, and the Dolphins or Jets suddenly turn into Popeye on spinach, any of the scenarios, though not impossible, are highly unlikely. I'm not a gambler, but given even odds, I wouldn't hesitate for a moment to put 1k on the Bills making the tournament. -
11/3/24 Game 9 GAMEDAY! Bills vs Dolphins Post Game Thread
SoMAn replied to BuffaloBill's topic in The Stadium Wall
I believe you’re almost correct. Even if the Jets win 4 and the Bills lose their remaining games (highly unlikely), it would still depend on division record. Bills are now 3-0, Jets 1-2. Meaning that 3 of Jet wins would be the rest of the division including Bills just to have more win within division. After that, there’s all the other tie-breaker scenarios. AFC wins, common opponents, etc etc This is fun to ponder, but ridiculous at the same time. For any combination of 4 (Bills wins, Jet losses) to actually happen with 8 and 9 games remaining is unimaginable. The Bills are shoe-ins to be in the playoffs for the 7th time in 8 years. But yeah, as some here state after every loss, let’s hope McDermott is fired🙄 -
I skated as a kid through teen years. I could do stops and skate backwards, but was never great. I had siblings who were competitive skaters and hockey players. I had issues with feet cramping up. But I could skate just ok. So, after many years not lacing up, I rented some Ill-fitting skates at NYC Central Park Wollman Rink during a Christmas visit in 2009. Age, weight, and absence of any muscle memory took their toll. I couldn’t have looked more stiff and awkward. Think Adrian in Rocky I. Standing on those blades seemed like the most unnatural thing a human could attempt. It was captured on video tape for all to enjoy when I’m long gone. Life lesson: leave the glory days where they belong-in the past.

I think we lose to the Dolphins, the 'fire McDermott' chants start again, and those same critics spell doom and gloom and a one and out playoff appearance if they don't lose the division to the Jets. Fickle fans here. 🤪
