  1. Obviously the better GM's will put themselves in good cap position to be able to work out necessary moves, but to say that a good GM can work out a contract regardless of his cap situation is just wrong. Numbers mean things.
  2. I have to fly to Buffalo to see games so I've only been to a handful of them, but I'm in the bus lot every time and I've seen three people go through tables there with a giant crowd around them. Security is all around so they probably could have stopped it if they wanted to.
  3. Murderers' Row https://g.co/kgs/3Khz13 Y'all need to lighten up. The only embarrassing thing about this is all the hand wringing going on. It's just fun, guys. I personally wouldn't do it because I'm more risk averse than that, but if someone else wants to do it I'll definitely watch it. Fans of other teams make it a point to see it when they attend games in Buffalo too, so it's pointless arguing that other fans somehow look down on Buffalo because of it. I can't even tell you how many people have gotten a good laugh out of it after showing them videos of it. I'm just surprised the Bills haven't come down hard on it from a liability standpoint. That would be perfectly understandable. But until they do, rage on I say.
  4. Not really. The teams that make it work had the ability to make it work. The teams that didn't have the ability to make it work didn't get the player. There would be a lot more "super teams" if cap space weren't an issue.
  5. What is he catching it with now? I'm not picky.
  6. So all the hype about Foster and Reilly was just hype? I thought those guys were going to carve out spots for themselves. Can't complain about the trade because everyone knows we probably have/had the worst receiver corps in the league, but it says a lot about the group's lack of development to this point despite claims to the contrary. I still think our offensive line should have been addressed first, for what it's worth. A QB can't throw to any receivers if he's being chased around.
  7. Okay I obviously condemn what's been done to this woman, but here's a legal question for the non-Cuddy's out there. If she is found to have been living in the home illegally, and the person who entered the home did so with McCoy's permission, and the ex attempted to physically prevent him from removing McCoy's possessions, would he be able to make the case that he was defending McCoy's property? Sort of a convoluted "stand your ground" defense? Again, I absolutely do not condone the actions, I'm just wondering about the legal implications.
  8. Thanks for the answers guys. What a **** show eh?
  9. Then why has the eviction process taken a year and counting?
  10. Nope. My mother's side of the family is from Buffalo so I got my Bills fandom from her. My dad is a Cowboys fan from the Staubach days. He also likes the Giants because he's from Jersey. He's not as invested in his teams, so despite them winning three Super Bowls against my mother's Bills, it wasn't as inspiring as the pride and toughness that Buffalonians possess.
  11. Neither, just clarifying what the guest was saying in the interview.
  12. The guy was making the point that Wyoming actually ran it far more than other teams despite having a far worse running game.
  13. Gotcha. The comments he actually made are no different from any QB who doesn't get picked first overall. Gonna prove everyone wrong, chip on his shoulder, etc.
  14. There is a fake Twitter account with a fake quote from Rosen saying he's glad he didn't go to the Browns, Jets, or Bills. But again, it's fake.
  15. Maybe we can still get Jackson at 22. Please?
  16. Maybe we can still get Jackson at 22. Please?
  17. So do y'all hear yourselves when you say things like "these players shouldn't be protesting against prejudices in the legal system" and follow it up with "I know literally nothing about the incident, but this black guy is definitely guilty of something horrible." Or nah?
  18. I thought snowflakes were the ones who were easily upset and offended? You know, like when they go on a "this is what's wrong with the world" rant in response to a completely logical question.
  19. Agree that we paid a premium for a former Panther, but we don't know that they didn't look at Poe. He may have just wanted to play with Short and Kuechly instead.
  20. I agree with all of this. Jackson is a better player than Tyrod, but he's still going to need an offensive system catered to his strengths and weaknesses more than a prototypical pocket passer would. The Bills were completely unwilling to do that with Tyrod last year, but I'm hoping the change in OC will bring more creativity and flexibility to the offense that would allow a player like Jackson to reach his potential as a playmaker.
  21. Threaten, threaten, play the victim. Sometimes it's hard to tell the difference between a troll and an inferiority complex.
  22. I agree with the last sentence. I just think it's because they're hoping to make the team better and not because they're afraid of some media drama. They wouldn't have benched him in the first place if that were the case. If they're okay with benching their starting QB in the middle of a playoff race for a fifth round QB who obviously wasn't capable of starting, they wouldn't balk at benching him for a first round guy who is regarded as a possible franchise QB. Tyrod's "baggage" is simply a result of him being better than the guy he was benched for. If we get a guy who makes that invalid, then the baggage disappears. The media seized that story because it was an incredibly risky move, and Peterman was not meant to start in his first year. Drafting a guy who is actually meant to start minimizes that risk. If anything, the media would immediately be asking when the rookie was going to start, not second guessing it when he does. And when he does, you could do a lot worse than having Tyrod as a backup and a role model. Pretty sure this is all moot anyway. Like you said, Tyrod probably won't be here next year. I just want it to be because we got a better (or cheaper) guy, not because they want to appease the media and some blindly emotionally fans like the OP.
  23. Obviously. So does everyone. But if they can't find a better vet for a reasonable price, they're not going to ditch their best option just because some fans can't cope with it. That's not the rational move. Look at the title of this thread for god's sake, and tell me which side is acting on emotion.
