Yeah, that's why I get a buzz cut every 5 weeks. I'd go more often if the barber weren't so expensive. No. 1 on the sides. No. 2 on top. A habit from my military days. You're right, Gardner is a punk. I didn't like seeing Diggs get slammed, but it had a silver lining in seeing Gardner lose his cool. I had to Google the word suplex.

I love this bipolar place. After loss, it's all knives and pitchforks. After a win, it's land of milk and honey optimism. It's been a pleasure to read today. Last week was rough.

I Googled. They are PURPLE inside.

I don't know. I'm excited about Fournette but Latavius Murray did a good job on his few carries last week.

Good. I'd like to see them use up their draft capital in a trade. The long-term implication would be good for the Bills.

Yep. Today is a must win. I will forgive losses in KC or Philly. The mood here Monday will be FOUL if they lose today. If they lose, I may take a hiatus from reading fan boards. They would be dominated by low-quality rants and be depressing to an unhealthy extent.

I see what you did there. That's pretty funny, especially given ZW's reputation.

I used to look forward to Bills games these last few years, because I felt a victory was likely. Now I'm not so certain. These could be drought quality Bills and that makes game days less enjoyable. I'm just not bubbling with confidence that Joe Brady can do it. Coach firings should be in the offseason.

Araiza should be pursuing her with a Civil Malicious Prosecution case.

There are 32 teams and Araiza isn't playing for one of them. What is keeping him out of the NFL? I thought his name was cleared. I say sign him.

The years of despair. Here are some names to stir up bad memories: Gregg Williams Mike Mularkey Dick Jauron Perry Fewell Chan Gailey Doug Marrone Rex Ryan Remember... those coaches were ostensibly the best hire available, the hottest name of those willing to move to WNY. When I assess the performance of the current regime, I contrast it with the above names. If you fire McDermott and replace him with the newest fad best hire available, it is statistically likely you hire a dud and we're back to years of futility.

A nice balanced write up. Though the quoted part won't win you a lot of friends amongst the legions of anti-McDermott bullies around here.

Yes. It's quite the echo chamber around here. I am very glad Bills staff do not hang out here, they have better things to do.

There's a massive amount of conjecture on the this board that becomes popularly accepted fact. That McD is a dictator is one of those created facts. (out of discretion, I deleted my paragraph critical of some posters, why create animosity?)

Fitzy as Bills QB Coach? Now, we're just being silly. I will file this under the same dynamic as "Jim Kelly as Part Owner of Bills" or "Chad Kelly as Bills QB" There is no unbridled sentimentality like that of a Bills fan.

You are right. Even Florida media covers "Florida Man" https://www.fox35orlando.com/tag/florida-man

That's not a big decision--that's a medium decision.

""Do you think the Bills brass and coaches read this forum ??"" I pray to God: No.

This is a question better asked at the end of the season. Everybody has an emotional hot head today, that's a piss poor time to be making big decisions.

All these people celebrating "McDermott on the hot seat" ...LOL. He's on no hot seat. He has a guaranteed contract through 2027. He's not sweating anything.

I'm sure benching Josh will be discussed by the powers, then dismissed as a crazy idea. If Kyle Allen weren't such a walking horror show, they would bench Josh. But Kyle would bring the Bills to new levels of awful.

(there aren't many serious replies to this post) Dorsey should stay in the box. The vantage point can't be replaced by still images on a tablet, and you're certainly not getting the birds eye view insights at turf level. Daboll and Josh were lackluster when Daboll was on the sideline. It wasn't until Daboll went upstairs that Josh really came about. I expect the same dynamic would come to play for Dorsey/Josh. Aside: Daboll was a raging screamer at Josh. Getting him upstairs defused that.

Allen, Diggs, Kincaid. That's about it. Hardly loaded.

It's degenerate gambler, not degenerative. I apologize. I'm not normally the grammar police, but that one was getting to me.

Sarcasm doesn't convey well online, even for the most skilled at it. If the poster gets lumps for it, I'm not sympathtetic.
