  1. Who is the Bills hated division rival?
  2. Do we know he's actually good yet? Texas' QB was exceedingly mid last year and they kept Arch on the bench.
  3. "Just give it to them."
  4. Wasn't that also the game when Hyde hurt his neck?
  5. I agree and that's the way I want it. Interesting means some sort of turmoil. I want it to be so boring that the NFL never features them again.
  6. I'm also interested in hearing about this. I saw it existed last year but I didn't have faith that I wouldn't get left there if the game went to OT
  7. They need to be reminded. Often. Defensive linemen are built to destroy. They forget what they are not supposed to destroy because their brain is wired to destroy everything.
  8. Can McDaniel keep hitting his vape on the sideline?
  9. I'm pretty sure you can walk around brandishing one of those things. If not, what a weird world we live in where you can open carry a fully functional and loaded AR-15 but not a fake, fully unloaded, penis.
  10. I don't think I said that, but...the second option can be just as helpful to your offense. Cook's explosiveness is a big asset and why I agree that he's worth a little more than Kyren Williams is. Williams isn't the usage comp, Aaron Jones is. Jones was always the more explosive back in GB but he was always in a timeshare. Players like Barkley, McCaffrey, Henry and Taylor aren't in timeshares
  11. The animated Spawn series was great.
  12. Right, but the Bills have shown that they will use three backs. Why would you pay a player more, to touch the ball less? That's the sticky wicket with this negotiation IMO. Cook wants to be paid like a bell-cow back, but he isn't used like, nor is he as productive as, a bell-cow back. Everyone talks about his TDs from last year, but most of the rest of his stats actually declined last year. Fewer carries, fewer yards, fewer receptions, fewer receiving TDs, fewer yards per reception. His yards per carry increased from 4.7 to 4.9. Saquon Barkley got a 2 year extension for 41M with 36M guaranteed this off-season. He is the marquee back of the league right now. Cook shouldn't even sniff those numbers. Can you argue that he's worth more than Kyren Williams? Maybe a little, but there's not a huge gulf between those players and that extension makes him the 7th highest paid back in the league. According to Schefter and Spotrac, here are the top ten RB average salaries in the NFL right now. Saquon Barkley: 20.6 Christian McCaffrey: 19 Derrick Henry: 15 Johnathan Taylor: 14 Alvin Kamara: 12.25 Josh Jacobs: 12 Kyren Williams: 11 Aaron Jones: 10 James Connor: 9.5 David Montgomery: 9.125 Looking at that I can see an argument for anywhere from Aaron Jones to Alvin Kamara. He's obviously better than Connor, but he's not the same back that Taylor or anyone above that are. Usage wise, the comp is Aaron Jones. He hovers around 200-215 carries a year with yards per carry in the high 4s to low 5s with about 50ish receptions a year. Some years a little more, some a little less. Point being, he was almost always used in a time-share. Last off-season, Jones signed 2 yrs for 20M with 13.8 guaranteed. He was 29 at the time. Factoring in some inflation, 3x11 with 23M guaranteed for a 24 year old Williams entering his 4th season seems pretty on point. Williams has 46 more career carries than Cook, 22 fewer receptions, and 4 more total touchdowns. In essence, he's touched the ball 24 more times over his career and has scored 4 more times. Now, we know there are likely reasons for that TD disparity, one of them being #17 who vultures a lot of goalline TDs that Matt Stafford does not. But there is also no guarantee that Buffalo would necessarily use Cook on the goalline anyway. They have shown they will use Davis and Johnson as well so you can't just take Allen's 1 yard runs and automatically say those would have been Cook's. Given all of that, if Williams is at 3x11 with 23M guaranteed, and they offered 11.5x3 with 25M guaranteed that would be pretty close to getting it done in the real world. It's a good comp and I think it helps us get this done.
  13. My wife called 911 for herself several years ago. She has a peanut allergy and had mistakenly eaten a PB M&M while driving down the Jersey Tpk and she didn't have her epi pens with her. She started having a reaction and called 911. The dispatcher tried telling her she was having a panic attack - which she very well ALSO may have been at that point - but he dithered on the phone with her so long that she crossed over some sort of 911 dispatch boundary so she got transferred and had to go through the whole thing again. She stopped at the Clara Barton rest area and they FINALLY sent EMTs to her location. She was trying to drive herself to the hospital but she would have stopped wherever they told her to stop. Once the second dispatcher told her to stop there help improved though the first EMT that arrived on scene had no equipment and wasn't able to do anything. The second group of EMTs arrived a couple minutes later and ended up using two epis on the way to the hospital. I tracked her cell phone going 90mph down a back road in South Jersey so I can imagine she was in great shape. She had a rebound reaction at the hospital and had to be given something else - idk what, I hadn't gotten there yet. Gooooood times.
  14. There was a fire in my college dorm building that I called 911 for. I called again at my first job when our student pick-up van drove past a structure fire. Around that same time I called 911 because a wrong-way driver whizzed past me on I-476 outside Philadelphia. I called a third time when a girl passed out on the court during a middle school basketball game. My wife called 911 for me when I passed out in our bedroom in the middle of the night. I had food poisoning, was freely flowing from both ends for about 12 hours, and got dehydrated. I got up to get something to drink, tipped my head back to drink from the glass and the darkness closed in. I had enough cognition left to put the glass down on the counter but I woke up on the floor. They sent the two smallest EMTs I have ever seen to my house and I'm a large man (6'3" probably 270 at that time (I'm less now - yay!). I had to scoot down the stairs on my butt because they couldn't lift me and then they almost dropped the gurney over sideways putting me into the truck. I caught myself from falling by grabbing the door frame. Needless to say, I haven't eaten anything from that Amish market since. -edit- I forgot the time I called 911 on a woman in the grocery store who was very clearly extremely drunk and the owner of a car in the parking lot with a large amount of fresh front end damage. Cops arrived before she was able to get the car moving again.
  15. Parsons had locker room issues at Penn State too. Something to keep in mind.
  16. If he could pass the protocol, he wouldn't have been in protocol. The better question is why does he have hydrocephalus?
  17. Or a team with an absolute dog water defense.
  18. Trey Lance looked surprisingly competent this evening.
  19. They can also afford to be more physical with him because if they whiff he can't run away from them like some other guys can.
