  1. And don't forget James Harris, who had a perfect 0-3 record as the Bills' starting QB. Fun fact - Gale Gilbert is the only person ever to be on the roster of 5 straight Superbowl teams.
  2. Then there's this: https://www.thefootballfeed.com/nfl-news/he-literally-didn-t-block-me-chargers-bosa-mic-d-up-vs-bills
  3. I would argue that Kelvin Sheppard and Kiko Alonso were hits because they became valuable trade assets. Sheppard was traded 1-for-1 for Jerry Hughes and Kiko was traded 1-for-1 for Lesean McCoy. In my view these are hands down hits and doubly so because the front office had the sense to leverage these guys for top players on time. Yes, ended Favre's career and also put a huge hit on Brady after he left the Bills (but not huge enough)
  4. Compare that bad Sammy trade to this one: Rams give us a 2nd and EJ Gaines for a 6th and Sammy in order to target him 70 times (39 catches for 8 TDs and 593 yards) then lose him to free agency. Makes our trade-up to get Sammy look positively brilliant.
  5. What's the matter, you didn't like the Bills taking Tony Hunter ahead of Kelly?
  6. The QB class of 1983 was legendary, with 6 quarterbacks taken in the first round. Three of those first rounders are in the Hall of Fame. But the interesting thing is the order that they were taken: 1. John Elway 7. Todd Blackledge 14. Jim Kelly 15. Tony Eason 24. Ken O'Brien 27. Dan Marino Imagine how upset the Miami fans must have been to settle for Dan Marino at #27. Clearly the Chiefs, Pats and Jets thought that they made better choices. And the Dolphins' message board (if one had existed back then) or the mock draft gurus (if there was such a thing) would have been talking about how Miami needs to trade up to get their franchise guy. Two morals to this story: 1. Make sure you don't take a Todd Blackledge instead of a Hall of Famer 2. Even Hall of Famers don't necessarily win Super Bowls. Of this group, only Elway won a SB and not until 1997, and not until he had lost 3 of them. Collectively they lost 9 of them. So everyone, R-E-L-A-X
  7. Sad to think that the 20 minutes you spent writing that are lost to you forever.
  8. Any game in which Nate Peterman throws a touchdown pass is worth rewatching. Both of them.
  9. Well, that was my point but I didn't want to sound like a dick.
  10. The custom here is to drop the apostrophe when writing "Bills"
  11. Can't see the team paying TT a $6 million roster bonus just to mentor a young QB for a season. Vikes have 3 starting QBs, I'd take any one of them as a stopgap.
