I thought Bernard was better than a lot of these guys

And remember Bob Kalsu The Bills lineman who was the only pro athlete killed in Vietnam

Thanks.. let’s hope he turns out to be a diamond in the rough

What’s the story with Wande Owens featured in the BN today? ( paywall can’t read)

Signed by the Texans for 7th round pick

Is Fields injured? I couldn’t believe that they didn’t use him at least a few times when the threat of the QB running was obvious.

I think that was the beloved Hank Bulloch

A great summary Shaw. As someone who has been fan since 1948 I think the job McD and Beane have done this year with all the turnover and injuries on defense have defied all expectations both of gurus and even the most rabid fans. He won't get it but McD deserves Coach of the Year. We are very lucky to have him

Sunny but cool and quite windy ??special teams problems kicking and maybe catching…

Actually , I misspoke ,After 76 years it clearly must be genetically determined and incurable!

My Dad was what was known as a country family doctor in the old days. He was born in Florida to German immigrant parents but grew up in Springville then went to Canisius and UB med school. He was thoroughly Buffalo blooded but worked day and night and didn’t spend much time with his kids but one day in the fall of 1948 said we’re going to a football game in Buffalo. As a 12 year old country bumpkin I knew next to nothing about football but when we got to the old rockpile with thousands of screaming fans watching the Bills take on Otto Graham and the mighty Cleveland Browns I was hooked! Of course, we lost but by perpetually waiting till next year even my grandkids who are young adults who grew up in Patriot country are avid fans. The disease is contagious!

Just a reminder of Kalsu and the sports Illustrated story. Also, Bills Mafia is extraordinarily generous--some might want to contribute to his memory @http://www.buffalocommunityboathouse.org. You could even get learn how to sail in the boat bearing his name!

In 1963 I was an intern at a Boston hospital, a rabid Bills fan in a sea of Patsies fans. We were playing the Patriots in a critically important game. I desperately wanted to go but the game was a sellout and I didn’t have any money anyway. I decided to write Ralph and ask him if there was any way I could get tickets. To my amazement he wrote back a very nice letter with 2 tickets up near the press box. My wife and I went , saw a close game in a snow covered field, but of course we lost when there was a third down and a yard to go for the Boston Patriots when their running back broke through for a long touchdown, game winning run. Ever since then it’s been— wait till next year!!

I think Zero a well known KC fan deserves a lot of credit for this post of over a year ago. Our offense did fine with Diggs not a big part of it over the last 7 games. Yes he may have drawn some coverages but he also had a huge game winning drop.we need good, reliable pass catchers like Kincaid and Shakir. A game busting potential superstar like MHJ would be incredible but we’ll be just fine with another solid if not spectacular receiver. Don’t sell the farm to move up!!

Thanks so much for posting this. I had not known about it and I will forward this great information to the group to which I donated my sailboat which will proudly carry it ‘s new name the Kalsu!
