McDermott & Co. will need to coach better in pivotal moments.

I’m cool with this. Frank Gore has to carry the ball a few times per game.

I believe there was genuine interest and Beane made what he felt was a fair offer. Being that AB is still not traded the Steelers asking price might be too high. Which brings up the question who has more of an axe to grind in this situation? Clearly the Steelers want to get value for AB, but they also want to send him a message that his market value is nowhere near what AB thinks he’s worth. The Steelers know this and are asking for compensation on par with what AB believes his value is. They probably won’t get much for him, and that is not the point. The point is the Steelers FO wants to bludgeon him on the way out as some form of payback.

At 31 & 5’11” one can wonder how many more elite years does AB have in him? He has at tops 3 elite years left. Going from pick 9 to 20 might be too much of a price to pay considering there are some amazing WRs that could be available. I’d rather build a team than try to acquire one, but that’s why I’m not GM.

I know a lot of young guys have no idea who Jim Kelly is, but with a little Googling they figure out. JK is great ambassador for our team and so to is Thurman. Guys who played virtually their entire career in Buffalo, won a lot of games, went into the HoF & still live in the area. Developing a winning culture starts with the owners on down. The GM & coach are pivotal to our success. How they treat players is also important. I believe we are on the right track as everyone in the org seems to be in sync.

Trump’s Deutsche Bank dealings explain why they are close to going under. No U.S. Bank would loan Trump money so he turned to the Germans. Thankfully that conman didn’t secure the financing to purchase the Bills on credit. I like Pegula’s cash baby!

Trump tried to buy the Bills on credit.

The only suitable punishment would be banishment from the league or an option to be forced into sex trafficking for one year.

4,000 yards passing and 0 rushing yards would be ideal, but 3,000 to 1,000 is more likely given what we’ve seen so far.

This guy should be out of league ownership.

He’s a guy who routinely throws for under 200 yards a game and has the throw moon shots to get the ball down the field. I’d pass if I was the GMen.

I liked Donald Jones. He was more relatable to this brother.

If they can’t make payroll paying guys $80k Kaepernick was smart to ask for $20m. $50 this league folds in 2 years.

League should be 7vs7.

Allen still needs 2019 as a learning year. Can fans wait?

Buffalo > Wyoming > Firebaugh Cali

Nothing to do with short dink and dunk passes and run heavy fronts early tiring out the defense?

McCoy isn’t good at consistently gaining yards. His big play ability has diminished. I’d trade him, over bring him back to be a 3rd down back.

How does NE do it so well?

The NFL was going to lose bad in the court of public opinion. Their base fan base is mostly young millennials who consume the game & are interested in the men behind the masks. They are the ones who drive the league’s growth both digitally, internationally, and on selling apparel. These fans follow their favorite players Instagram & twitter accounts. Kaepernick is iconic because he came of age at a time when the game was changing & our country was trending towards political polarization. Here was the next Randall Cunningham level athlete who was trying to be fit into a box by people who said he couldn’t throw from the pocket, mostly the same people who opposed his image. Somehow this kid worked well inside of the offense of one of the strictest coaches in the NFL. Harbough designed an offense where he could destroy teams with RPOs seen in college, but the general public were told couldn’t work in the pro game. Inevitably came the injuries on defense and the FO failure to reload the pool of talent that New England seems to only replenish thanks to a genius FO of Belichick & Ernie Adams. Kaepernick lost teammates and coaches. By 2016 Kaepernick had realized his time in the NFL would be short. He was approaching 29 & with limited time to get to a winner given his style of play, he was faced with a choice. Rather than bow out sight unseen like Vontae Davis he decided to shed light on an issue near his heart. He chose to use his celebrity and status to start a national conversation about police brutality and racism. The NFL was always going to lose the Trump fans who need to be told how to think and feel. Fans who could be triggered with one tweet or sound bite. What the NFL couldn’t afford to lose was their new fan base as loyal to individual players than they are to teams. Fans who could empathize with Kaepernick and respect his activism.

Tom Brady will have to be knocked out of the league. Teams should send all out blitzes and hit him on every pass on time or after its out. Watching the mic’d up of the Super Bowl it was apparent the zebras didn’t like Donald tossing Brady to the ground which was a routine play. Probably only got away with it because of his own star power. That said remember back in the day defenders were allowed to drive the QB into the ground and land on them? Oh how I miss the good ole days.

Someone who is 6’3” 220 runs a 4.4 great hands vertical quickness, good route runner, courageous, leader, intelligent.

I count 3 missed tackles.

Thurman Thomas was awesome in this game. If Meggett aka Welker/Amendola/Edelman didn’t convert that 3rd and 17 we likely win.

Hence why teams need to do the same thing back to them. Remember how upset Belichick was when TJ Ward took out Gronk’s knee in 2013? The only time Belichick gets emotional is when one of his stars goes down. In 2010 he blamed the field conditions for Welker’s injury. He’s such a control freak and those kind of injuries destroy so much of his in game planning. When Welker destroyed Akim Talib in the AFC Championship game concussing him Belichick said afterward “it was one of the worst plays I’ve ever seen”. Really Bill?
