  1. Our best QB is the raw rookie we drafted. I'm not upset about that.
  2. Don't worry. He'll get a chance to prove himself again--he'll get hired as a third of fourth training camp arm--by some team with the tools. Though, result will be the same: 32 starters + 32 backups + 6 fringe players = 70 NFL quality QB's exist in this world. Nate is probably #80 The no namer starting for the Bills today is probably #85
  3. You know it. I especially recall the past post that someone should be fired NOW because we passed on Mahomes. What is it with firing people that makes armchair fans get such a woody?
  4. I believe he's sincere saying he isn't tanking. Though, I think it's accurate to say he's not pulling out all the stops to win now. (thankfully he's not mortgaging the future to win now)
  5. If it were free, I'm all for a domed stadium. Jerry World or Atlanta, go big. If "Other People's Money" is not involved, I say repaint the Cap.
  6. True. In different words... Resigning existing talent is the end of a high performing team. The only way a team can beat the system long term is by drafting consistently well. Entry level contracts don't gut a team like free agent contracts.
  7. Read the subject line and thought "this should be moved to PPP"
  8. This caused me to do some Googling on XFL. If people want WWE, they'll WWE. They aren't going for hybrid football and wrestling. I give the league one year.. which is how long they lasted last time.
  9. Win baby! Tanking leaves a dark cancer in the locker room which is hard to get rid of --- ask the Sabres.
  10. Money quote there. Few will understand.
  11. This came down to a printing contract. The BN is the biggest printer in WNY and wanted the contract to print game day programs. Sources report "you want the program printing contract--get rid of Bucky and Sully." As told to me by Dunkirk Don during a a break from one of our meetings.
  12. Nice post. I agree somewhat. I think Rex's positives were also his undoings. He was a happy go lucky blustering front man, which worked well in the PR department. No matter how much drano I use, I can't rid the picture of Rex and Bro riding the tandem bike around Delaware Park. Unfortunately, that living life on a a lark bled over to Rex's bread and butter which was running a football team. He ran to the team too casually and undisciplined, with no strategic plan whatsoever. His crass off field showmanship was no way to run an NFL team.
  13. There comes a point where consistently firing people becomes counter productive. There's a universe of Head Coach eligibles of about 50 people (including employed coaches). If you give an OC and HC a offensive roster of spam; and fire them because they can't make a steak dinner out of it --- potential HC's will read this as a hot headed owner to be avoided. You can't fire every two years and expect to later attract a Cowher, Reid, Belicheck etc. Though you might attract a Hue Jackson.
  14. Your lost me at "simple" Simple solutions to complex problems inevitably fail. It's well proven. Firing someone isn't going to turn the franchise around.
  15. Peterman will be cut when Anderson returns officially. Gotta say, Anderson v. Peterman is a toss up regarding who sucks more.
  16. I couldn't understand the mumbling cashier--after a couple 'pardon me' on my side she screamed at me. I walked out. It was Five Guy's Burgers, Glen Burnie MD--they hate customers. Come to think of it, all the stores in Glen Burnie hate customers. That entitled millennial customer hate is spreading like a cancer to a store near you.
  17. Are Pegs still paying Rex Ryan? Will Pegs still be paying McD if he is fired?
  18. doubt it, Oakland is trying pretty hard--and succeeding in their tank
  19. At least the Bills D is stout ha ha haha ha haha ha haha ha haha ha haha ha ha
  20. The Sabre youngsters are finally growing up. At the same time, the "system" coach appears to be having success. (I do not like system coaches) I'd say the Bill's are two years from rookie impact, two years from coaching impact. I know that timeline will burn the britches of many.. too bad, the truth can hurt.
  21. OMG, the base salary is fiscal insanity. Me thinks Sam is unemployed for the near future. Maybe forever.
  22. Let's Git'r Done Bean, Kick the tires. Sorry.. worn out cliches [spoken seriously from fans ] aren't worn out enough until you resurrect them and kick'em a few more times. You're assuming he's interested in coming to Buffalo.
  23. Dude, it seems you don't like change. No problem there, but you're gonna like irrelevance even less.
  24. I had my card skimmed (number stolen by a compromised terminal). It was my gas and grocery card, so I know it was skimmed at Aldi Maple Road. The dude made a successful purchase at ***** on Transit Road. The card was then denied and shutdown at Walmart Batavia. I was pretty impressed by the bank detected the fraudulent activity and shut it down so quick. I'm pissed the perp got a new pair of Nikes, which all us card holders end up paying for.
