Taylor looking real bad in camp
CanadianFan replied to BuffaloBud420's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
not surprised. He's reached his ceiling. SUCK FOR SAM! -
Bruce Smith now a Browns Fan :(
CanadianFan replied to CanadianFan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Yup. It just don't fit! Some players, when they put on a team colors, looks right. And they look good in multiple uniforms. Like Reggie White. Or Demarcus Ware. And for some it just looks wrong. Like Favre in anything other than Packers. Or Montana. -
UB program profile: So this guy was a 4 year starter! (a good thing) and 38th ranked prospect in Michigan. A very good football talent state. So again, how did he NOT land in a major program?

Khalil Mack stopped playing football in his Jr. year so he dropped off scouting radars from colleges

Tannehill down non contact injury
CanadianFan replied to CommonCents's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Crap! there goes our 4 win season! -
Ok, a bit misleading title I admit. He's there at Brown's practice in Browns Tshirt coaching Garrett. I guess he don't see the same potential in Shaq? He better be worth the hype Brucey. http://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/20230577/bruce-smith-lauds-maturity-cleveland-browns-myles-garrett

He's athletic and big for a QB but why did he land at UB? What's his weakness?

Just lost respect for Mike Florio-
CanadianFan replied to Protocal69's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
True. Well objectively speaking, there needs to be a stadium plan in the works in about 2 years' time. That means architectural and environmental etc drafts need to start working soon. Buffalo could use more downtown redevelopment. I'm in Finance/Economics sphere. Southern Ontario is one of the most economically dynamic areas in North America. Despite Nafta I don't know why Buffalo has never been able to link up economically. Same goes for Detroit. Pegulas probably have an architect and engineering firm in employment already. -
MMQB: Bills' 2017 Season Preview by Andy Benoit
CanadianFan replied to 26CornerBlitz's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I didn't even notice this thread and posted a new one under a better title: Scheme fits for our core players. That's what his preview was about. Whether the new coaches and our core players fit or not. I think he made a good point that OC Rick will demand less from Tyrod and thus he can thrive here. He also suggests McD might play more man coverage since he drafted a corner with 1st, and he already got a good corner. Key thing is he believes McCoy may have a problem being disciplined for Rick's zone schemes. If he does he'll do well. Otherwise we could see a frustrating season from McCoy. -
https://www.si.com/nfl/2017/07/31/buffalo-bills-training-camp-season-preview-tyrod-taylor-lesean-mccoy-sammy-watkins-lorenzo-alexander SI's preview makes a couple of things to watch for with the coaching changes and their schemes' fits to our core players. SI seems to think Tyrod can do better under OC Dennison's scheme that dumbs down QB reads to 2. (I hope so!) SI points out that McCoy needs to be more patient under Dennison's zone-block schemes, suggests former coachs' running schemes suit him better. As well all know, our defensive personnel suits McD's schemes. SI thinks McD will play more man-cover due to the way the draft went: sorry delete this. sorry delete this.

Could Ragland be surprise cut of 2017?
CanadianFan replied to Dragonborn10's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I know man. That's why I just haven't bothered responding. The suggestion of him being cut is just too dumb for reasons you stated. I wish this forum would have "thumbs up" thing. -
CTE in nearly 90 percent of football players

Rivers/Gates not allowed to attend LT's HOF induction
CanadianFan replied to eball's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Maybe there's a message here from him. Perhaps the previous HC was too permissive? He's not that dumb when it comes to people and motivation so I'm going to wait and see what it is. -
Dareus tweaked hamstring, could miss camp time
CanadianFan replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Hammies are such a simple thing to address in strength and conditionning. and yet we still have this issue. WHERE IS THE CULTURE CHANGE?!!!!!!!!!!!!! -

CanadianFan replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
WTF!!!!! Hello training staff... ENOUGH OF THE HAMMIES! It's such a simple issue to prevent. WORK ON PREVENTION!!!! GRRRRRRR -
More hyperbole: http://www.espn.com/video/clip?id=20170524&sf101780562=1 Don't get me wrong. I like Cardale. He has intangibles. But he needs a lot of work. He's a bit like Teebow in that sense. I don't know if it is fixable.

CTE in nearly 90 percent of football players
CanadianFan replied to papazoid's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Childhood concussion can have an impact much later on in life. I had a very bad concussion when I was a kid. blacked out and was bed ridden for a few days due to impact. I soon recovered fully seemingly. I have dealt with severe depressions since teen years. Is it related to my childhood concussion? I do not know. The only strong correlation that medical community knows is concussions often lead to depression/related issues and head injury specialists often prescribe anti-depressants once patients exhibit symptoms. There's a reason for young people to recover from concussion and fast - their brains are still growing. Humans have distinct growth states to mid/late 20s and that helps with recovery. As an adult past mid-20s to 30, the brain doesn't "grow" anymore that presumably helps with the fast healing process. Part of the problem with concussions is, externally to most, we look "fine". Internally a lot of small things are going wrong that unless one has a high degree of self-awareness. So in the past, I didn't self-recognize the issues I was having. Yes one does get "dumb" from head injury. So your friend's "mushhead" is part of his faculties not performing optimally. I'm a financial analyst, and there have been times when I couldn't understand my own work, and my physical symptoms were seemingly ok. Mental processing speed impact - it's like having a slow computer - it can't respond well in real time, especially in social interactions. It becomes an impairment in professional interactions. This goes up and down. Emotional regulation - you've heard of hockey players who couldn't control impulses and bashed the ref. The story of former Bills kicker who left home because he couldn't control his own sudden bouts of anger. That's just one emotion but most anti-social one that impacts others. Thoughts and moods can go to extremes. Why people who've had concussions once have them more often, from lesser impacts is a question medical science has no answer on at this time. We can only speculate or theorize why that may be. But the brain does have capacity to repair itself. It's called neuroplasticity, a fairly recent but not well understood recent discovery. Some lucky people have a genetic pre-disposition for it. The rest of us have to do things to promote it. I have found certain supplements help with the recovery. Some of my findings have been from this year. If there is one thing you do for your daughter, see to it that she takes Omega3 with a high DHA count (up to 600mg) on a daily basis from now on. It helps with her brain development. A large part of our brain (30-60%) is made up of Omega3 and is building block for our brain. Better awareness can only help us deal with it better going forward. -

bit far fetched. Kim that lil ho is a genius. She decided to release a sex tape of herself with a celeb and make her own name. NOTHING TO DO WITH OJ. -
CTE in nearly 90 percent of football players
CanadianFan replied to papazoid's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I agree re: Urschel. He needs to salvage the rest of his life. Mind you math doctors don't make 10% of the salary Mds make though. Or 5% of NFL. I don't want to make a blanket statement on "media". I thought this article was fairly factual. Football isn't going to die, because paying customers want to see the violence. See the growth of MMA. Risk in MMA is real. Risk in Football is real. They are just discovering other aspects of it and reporting it now. -
