Cam Newton loved Kelvin Benjamin and says he was their number one receiver at 1:15:
AFAIC, he is the top WR in the NFL, better than AB, better than Julio. Josh or AJ are so lucky to have him. Combined with Zay, those two will be unstoppable.

I am so angry. I was listening to the Blitz with Bruce Murray and Brady Quinn on Wednesday on SiriusXM NFL. They were evalauating the Chargers and saying they were not that good of a team, despite their 9-7 record, since they failed to beat a single playoff team last season. And their wins only came against less competititve non-playoff teams.
He (either Murray or Quinn...not sure who) said it twice. He went over every game they played last season, in order, and said:
"The Chargers then beat Buffalo, Dallas, Cleveland, and Washingtom, all non-playoff teams."
Hello? When is Buffalo going to get the respect it deserves for being a solid playoff team last year? LA's win last year against us was a quality win against a powerful team. We were one of the top 12 teams last year. Period.
Thanks for the insult.

Why doesn't nfl.com have a single story about this?
19 hours ago, OldTimeAFLGuy said:...still remember Winslow Sr's epic game with SD.....
In a Jan. 2, 1982 AFC playoff game, the two high-scoring franchises put on a show in the Orange Bowl, combining for 1,036 yards in a battle that took more than 60 minutes to decide.
The teams fought to a 38-38 tie at the end of regulation, and Chargers All-Pro tight end Kellen Winslow became the lead player in this drama. He barely made it off the field after cramping in overtime — this was a game that saw Winslow endure an injured shoulder, a pinched nerve, a swollen eye, a split lip, cramps and dehydration from the humidity — only to return an block a potential game-winning field goal attempt by Uwe Von Schamann after the Dolphins had recovered a Chuck Muncie fumble.
Three Chargers receivers cracked the 100-yard mark, led by Winslow, who had 13 catches for 166 yards and a touchdown.
Rolf Benirschke's kick seemed to hang in the air forever before sailing through the uprights for a 41-38 victory.
He is the greatest TE of all time, period. He was named "All-World" after that game, the only player ever to be selected for that title, surpassing "All-Pro". Gronk, Jones, Gates, Novacek, Graham, Witten...all of them suck compared to him.

OP: you need to clarify if this list is for teams which had the most fun ('91 Falcons with the Dirty Bird comes to mind or the '88 Bengals with the Icky Shuffle); or the teams which were most fun for fans to watch.

Yep, the Bills were popular nationally throughout the entire 90's. I remember being in shock in the mid to late 90's when I saw lots of fans in Massachusetts and California with Bills merchandise on. Because in the 80's, no one outside of Bills country admitted they were Bills fans.

I'll always appreciate the Bengals for playing hard when there was nothing left to play for. I'm not a Bengals fan and never will be. I root for certain teams on a weekly based upon (a) how the result impacts the Bills and (b) which team I like less. I have no "2nd favorite" team.
The Bills did the same thing in 2015 when we beat the Jets in Week 17 to knock them out of the playoffs and give the spot to Pittsburgh. Why didn't get love from the Steelers???

You said earlier he had died in your post when you said "our late unlamented GM Buddy Nix". I was in shock too when I read this. "Late" means "deceased".

Looking at the offense, this team is currently built for McCarron or Peterman to be the starting QB. They need to draft or sign some elite speedsters when Allen is ready to start. Kerley and Streater aren't close to enough.
And what's wrong with Kelvin Benjamin and Zay Jones??
On 6/8/2018 at 3:48 PM, Klaista2k said:Sounds like he's been missing a lot of throws that he need to make.
Hate to say it but he's probably gonna bust.
I'd rather have a QB miss long than miss short. Plus Jared Goff has the exact same inaccuracy issues. Look how is doing, despite that.

You're trolling, right? Aaron Rodgers would have been a home run pick at #1 overall. Most rookies don't start game one these days. I'll assume you're joking.
But he wasn't drafted in the top 10, was he?
On 6/8/2018 at 9:40 AM, billsfan89 said:Eli Manning wrong pick, Phillip Rivers wrong pick, Carson Palmer wrong pick, Jared Goff wrong pick, and there are many other examples of QB's not playing right away that went on to be uber successful in the NFL. In fact there is evidence that sitting a QB for most of their rookie year is the best way to go. This has to be trolling.
Carson Wentz begs to differ with you.

From what I hear from Sal and Vic, it sounds like they are bringing along slowly with the 3rds. I agree with their decision to take it slow with hm and get as many reps for AJ as possible as he’s definitely the starting guy week 1. Josh needs time to develop. He will learn the system slowly and when he’s finally ready, I trust McD and Daboll will get him in with the 1’s.
Just remember what happened to the older Carr who was killed when the Texans who put him out there week1. I know they had to as an expansion team, but it ruined him he was sacked so many times.
i don’t care if we see him at all this year, but if the experts think he is ready, they know when to put him in there.
Look what starting him in Week 1 did to EJ Manuel.

Rodgers would have had the same success even if he started day one.
And you know this how?
On 6/7/2018 at 7:50 PM, Zerovotlz said:My 2 cents on this.
Before the draft, NO ONE anywhere was saying Josh Allen would be a day one NFL starter. If ever there was a guy who needed to "sit and learn" it is Josh Allen. Allen is the same guy today he was before the draft..a physical specimen with a powerful arm....who has CLEARLY IDENTIFIABLE flaws that need to be addressed before he would be considered ready to get onto an NFL field.
Allen is at MINIMUM a one year bench project and probably should be brought along even more slowly than that given what he is at this point. For comparison, look no further than Paxton Lynch. Go read his scouting reports pre draft a couple years ago..he was a "2-3 year project" with great size and arm who played in a spread BLA BLA BLA. They knew he was a project when they took him....and they got impatient and have given up on him already out there. I can't say it's justified to have given up or not, but it's a little unfair to call a "2-3 year project" a bust when you haven't given him 2-3 years EVERYONE though it would take to develope the guy. This is the danger with Allen. It is VERY HARD for a coaching staff to survive at 2-3 year development QB and see it though to where it pays off. If NOTHING ELSE, then ending the playoff drought last season might have bought your staff enough credibility and time to see it through....but that won't matter if the team is losing while waiting for Allen to be ready and the fans quit showing up...ownership will be tempted to compell the coaches to get the kid on the field NOW, or fire the coaches to placate the impatient fans. It's going to be a rough go. ....and after the time has been put in...you better get some results that show he is the QB to lead the team or a housecleaning comes and this all starts over again.
One other note....as much as I love Mahomes...and I think he could have started and done fairly well last season, KC had a pretty unique situation being able to sit the kid, work on his issues, while fielding a division winning team with a really good QB onboard already. Whole lot easier for even me, to wait while Smith was still leading a good football team.
Buffalo has a really rough schedule to start the year off. Let AJ take that beating..take the negative press, ....Allen needs work and reps...for at least a whole year....I'm normally of the shcool of thought that if a QB is going to be good, then he will be good wether he sits or not. ...this would be an exception. You drafted a KNOWN project...now let him go through "THE PROCESS" of being a project. If it is going to pay off at all, it has to be this way.
Jared Goff and Carson Wentz disagree with you.

Didn’t they lose to the Chargers the week after the Jets win?
And speaking of that Jets game, how about Bill Simpson’s pick to snuff out the Jets comeback as a candidate for most clutch play?
But I also remember the SI prediction. They had Bills beating Atlanta in the SB if I remember correctly.
They went to Cincy after the Jets win and lost. They lost to the Chargers the year before, in 1980, when Fergy was playing on a bad ankle. Both the Bills and Chargers finisehd 11-5 that year and the Bills beat them in Week 5, but had to go to San Diego to play them in the playoffs.

I find it disturbing here that supposed Bills fans are bashing a former Buffalo Bill. I guess you are just bandwagoners. TO was wronged by the HOF voters, and now they HOF looks like the scumbag organization it is. TO has the guts to teach them a lesson.

I remember when the game seemed out of reach fans just streaming out the stadium in numbers I had never seen before - and I said to my brother - "We're staying - this is going to be an Alcoa Fantastic Finish!" We were in the EZ behind the last drive - Hooks' diving catch down the middle was the greatest athletic play I have ever seen live in any sport. It was truly remarkable.
I LOVED Alcoa Fantastic Finishes!!!!

Pretty bad when another team is given credit for your team's most clutch play ever.

I was listening to SiriusXM the other day. Since Dwight Clark died, they were having a segment on each team's most clutch play ever. Of course, they talked about San Francisco's Montana to Clark "Catch" in the 1981 NFC Championship Game as being clutch. And the Pittsburgh Steelers "Immaculate Reception". Both plays clearly started the Super Bowl dynasties for each team. Without them, there never would have been those dynasties.
So I nominate these two plays as Buffalo's most clutch play ever:
1. 1989: Jim Kelly's TD run with 2 seconds left at Miami, with the Bills behind 24-20.
Video:
I watched that game live on NBC and the network did not show Buffalo's extra point to make it 27-24. Everyone thought the game was over with the Bills ahead 26-24 with no time left, and NBC stopped coverage and went to the next show. But the refs made the teams come back on the field for the extra point I read in a news article the enxt day. I remember being furious at this. I was screaming at the TV they still had to kick the extra point, but no one listened to me.
This play set up the Bills to become great during the 90's.
2. In 1981, two consecutive catches by backup RB Roland Hooks from Joe Ferguson at home to beat New England 20-17. The game was blacked out, depsite the Bills being in the midst of a playoff run, so our family gathered around the radio to listen to Van Miller's play-by-play.
The Bills were 6-5 and had just suffered two consecutive losses, and now they had to face the 2-9 Patriots at the Rich. Wih 35 seconds left and Buffalo at its on 27 down 17-13, Ferguson hit Roland Hooks for a spectacular 37-yard circus catch. Then, with no timeouts, the Bills ran up to the line (I don't think spiking the ball to stop the clock had been invented yet). With 12 seconds left at the Patriots 36, Feguson hit Hooks again with a Hail Mary catch to give the Bills the win.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6XJNNLuwNMw
[Note: NFL has it wrong above: Roland Hooks was NOT a WR!!]
These plays propelled the Bills to a 10-6 record that year and to the wild card, where we crushed the Jets and then narrowly lost in the divsional round to the Bengals. The next season, Sports Illustrated, in a written article (there was no online back in those days), predicted the Bills would win the SB in 1982. I remember, as a kid then, being so excited. The Bills did go onto an NFL-best 2-0 record in 1982 and were on their way to a SB victory had it not been for the ensuing 8-week long strike and killed the Bills chances. After the strike, the Bills were not the same team, and lost 5 of 7 games to finish 4-5 and out of the playoffs. To make matters worse, our main rival, the Miami Dolphins, went onto the SB that year; and our other main rival, the Jets, made it to the AFC Championship game. I was devasted. Many years of Buffalo misery ensued before the arrival of Jim Kelly gave us hope.

12/24/16 Tyrod went for 329 against Miami. Is it correct that before that the last 300 yard passer was JP Losman throwing for 340 against Texans 11/19/06? I realized we have been horrible passing for a long time, but I didn't realize it was that big a draught. Hopefully whenever Josh gets his shot, he can string together some 300 yard games and bring a new dimension to our offense
There is no way in hell Tyrod ever threw for 300 yards. The Bills have had quite a few 300 yard passing erformances in the drought, but not from Tyrod. For there not to have been any 300 yard passing performances in the drought would be the equivalent to saying there were no 100 yard rushing games from a running back. 300 yard passing games are very common.

Here's the background. Bernie Kosar tweets a photo from Jim Kelly's charity event that included Vic C posing next to Cornelius Bennett.
Graham retweets it with that caption.
In another tweet TG claims he isn't taking a shot at Carruci. I think of course it is, and right out on public. What do you think?
Screenshots? Links? This thread is meaningless without them. SMH.

This isn't some Lindsay Lohan body switch movie with last years Browns. The Bills need to use all this crap as fuel for the fire. I honestly think we win no less that 7, but may end up with 9-10 wins if we can get out of the first half at 3-5 or 4-4.
Title should be rewritten: "5 Way-to-Early Picks from CBS", so as to avoid confusion.

It's even worse since the NBA and NHL seasons have just ended. No excitement until training camp, which begins too late, IMO. They used to begin in early July.
