    He kicks a ball 30 times a day for a living, how the heck does he get injured 😆 

    He kicks way more than that, and also does a lot of training.  Overuse, hernias, general wear and tear of moving parts.  Honestly, we haven't talked about this enough and the Bills have been very cagey about what's actually wrong.

    Anyone know how Bass has been doing in camp? Is there any chance at all this guy steals the job? 

    He's been out with "pelvic soreness" which could be any number of things.  What I know is he's going to have to kick before week 1 and look back to normal. I also suspect we will carry a kicker on the PS even if Bass is ready for week 1.

    I don't count the NE rivalry during the drought because it was so one sided that I seriously doubt anyone in NE was thinking about us at all. I agree with everything you said but I don't think it's a rivalry, you need it to go both ways.

    That's a tough metric if you have a really good team.  By nature you're going to win most of your games in your own division in that scenario.  We have the inverse relationship with Baltimore that we do with KC.  One we only beat in the playoffs, the other we only beat in the regular season.  Does that make Baltimore and KC rivals of ours?  I don't really think of either of them that way.

     

    Recently I'd have to say Miami is our biggest rival.  They've been closest to us in our division, we've been their major impediment in the division, we've denied them the division title a couple times, we've beaten them in the playoffs. That has to really piss them off. Historically many of us don't like Miami either but on a shorter timeline it hasn't been a two-way thing.  We've pretty much owned them since 1987.

    So if McD isn't here we can go to 3 Super Bowls in 12 years?

     

    Sign me up. Which is sort of the point of this entire conversation. This is about different, better isn't even part of the conversation. Even in the case of what most consider to be an all time HC in Andy Reid, different resulted in a Super Bowl. Sometimes you just have to move on from leadership roles. Plenty of Championship teams have come to this realization. I'm pretty sure Josh will keep the floor at a Wild Card. If so, what is the massive risk here? He's had a great run. If he can't get over the hump you need to eventually consider other options.  

    It's weird but McD's career here reminds me a lot of young Andy Reid in Philly.  Great teams, came up short year after year in the playoffs and Reid took a lot of flack for it and eventually got fired.  The Eagles did win some Super Bowls but it took awhile post Reid and Reid obviously did too but it took awhile post Eagles.

     

    He makes me crazy sometimes, but I think we need to ride it out.  If you say fire him I need to know who your hire is.  It can't be we will see who is out there. Lord Terrence will foul that up.  There needs to be a dead lock hire out there to get.  Right now there is only one dead-lock hire that is both gettable and an upgrade from what we have and that, ladies and gentleman, is the Dark Lord himself.

    I think McDermott knows this and why he hired all those extra Defensive assistants.  He can’t figure out KC’s offense so he’s getting people who he thinks can.

    It's not that he can't figure out the offense, it's that Andy Reid knows this defense better than McDermott does and he gets in his bag.  

     

    It's crazy to say, but they'd be better off having someone call the defense who has never called it before when they play the Chiefs.  Not a guy off the street, a coach on staff who knows the scheme and the players but who hasn't called the defenses. There's no book on them.  Do something different, break our own tendencies in a massive way.  It really can't be much worse than it has been.

    If you're young enough to not remember the 90s Bills you can probably say that the Bills don't have a true rival in the division, but for me it will always be the Dolphins.

     

    I effing hate the phins.

    I hate the concept of Miami, but the truth is we've done very well against them for the vast majority of my lifetime.

    I hate the Jets because their fanbase is obnoxious for no objective reason

    I hate New England not because they beat us so many times in a row, but because they did it while they were getting caught cheating several times and seemingly the entire world was trying to minimize that cheating so as not to besmirch their legacy. To the degree that even today people talk about Tom Brady's great nutrition as the reason why he looks so young, not a single thing about how his personal trainer and business partner was banned from league facilities. Yeah, he was 100% legit, no HGH use at all. None, totally normal for a 46 year old to be a starting QB in the NFL. All that healthy eating was the key.  He wasn't behind deflating the balls either - who doesn't destroy cell phones on a regular noncoincidental basis. And the Spygate footage? Inconsequential and you didn't need to see it anyway. Besides it belonged to the league and was theirs to destroy.  Spygate 2? Total misunderstanding, not a flagrant disregard for the established rules AFTER they'd already been caught and covered for once.  Pats o-lineman arrested with a massive amount of pain medication? Nothing to see here.  Aaron Hernandez? They were as shocked as we were.  If you lose to someone a bunch of times because they are better than you, fine, and for a lot of those games they were just better than us, but the consistent level of scumbaggery combined with their arrogance was just disgusting.  The Dolphins and Jets don't owe karma a debt. New England does. A big one.

     

    Other teams?

    I have an absolute irrational hatred of Jacksonville.  Why?  During the drought and during the whole Toronto BS and after Ralph passed we had to constantly worry about out team being taken from us while the league did everything in its power to prop up Jacksonville as a franchise.  Tarping off seats was ok, and gaming the "club seating" rules inside the stadium to keep the games on local TV were fine for Jacksonville to do. Meanwhile every other week there was another story about the Bills moving somewhere even though our stadium was full.  I will forever hold a grudge against that pitiful excuse of a team and a fanbase. If there is ANY city in the NFL that DESERVES to lose its team it's them.  Move them to London. Tomorrow.

    "Shut still".  Still meaning days, if not weeks.  That would be mad annoying only having sight out of one eye for a week, don't you think?  How do get depth perception with one eye?

    Isn't that left over from his 4th of July fireworks shenanigans?  Eye still shut for over a month doesn't seem great.

    The odds of finding a better head coach than McDermott on the first try are not good, so unless there is a clear and compelling reason to can him, it would be stupid to do so.  Continuity is always a better option until it isn't.

    It's important to remember. Terry has absolutely NO IDEA what he's doing on that front and he 100% lucked into the arrangement he has.  Asking him to replicate that in any way is unlikely.

    im not sure I recall it, it’s all “blurry” to me


    After this game I thought the team had a legit shot and running the table in the regular season.

     

    Jordan Phillips who was playing great to start the year hurt his hamstring on Milano TD return. And the next week we went to Miami with the Heat Index and the entire middle portion of the regular season turned from that game.

    Wasn't that also the game when Hyde hurt his neck?

    As a OG Hard Knocks watcher, if I wasn’t a fan of the team I would've thought it was pretty boring. The lovable losers with a great fan base and Josh Allen. That’s the outside narrative of the Buffalo Bills and that’s what the episode was all about. Kinda wanted more behind the scenes material. 

    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.

    Anyone have experience or advice on taking the NFTA shuttle buses to and from the stadium. For example, to and from Eastern Hills Mall? 
    Thanks in advance 

    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

    I gotta kick out of how many times they told the defense that 17 is off limits.  

    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.

    "Indecent exposure" for throwing a ***** is quite the stretch. Wont stick.

    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.
