    Every year we don’t do anything at the deadline and every year people forget that and then get upset. Just get yourselves comfortable with knowing it’s probably not going to happen. Any of these years…it’s not what we do

    And also every year we are seemingly footsteps away from a Super Bowl.  So I can’t blame the people for seeing the correlation

    NFL Week 8: Packers at Bills - post game thread

    in The Stadium Wall

    Mission accomplished.  Colin Cowherd is consistently one of the biggest hypocrites out there.  Don’t get me wrong when he’s on the Bills bandwagon I tend to ignore it more but his takes change weekly.  What applies to one team one week doesn’t apply to the same team the next week.  If we don’t trash talk his take is most likely that we came out flat and didn’t show emotion in the second half.  He wants people tuning in and talking.  That’s why he’s a fan one week and not the next.  He’s flip flopped on Mahomes and Allen so many times I’ve lost count.

    Clear Sign Beane Doesn't Think We Are Ready

    I think I’d be more disappointed if there was a flurry of deals to end the day.  But it’s not like the bills were the only team unable to improve themselves. Gordon didn’t move, Williams didn’t move, Green didn’t move, Howard, Beasley, Slay, Bell, etc.  Every player who was rumored to move is still right where they started.

     

    My best guess was the asking price was too high, or at least someone would have moved on the last day.

    I believe the competitive landscape in NFL is about to change dramatically

    No one wants to say it, but this is the deal - Bills and Jets will be fighting for the AFCE for the next  decade+.

     

    Pats are toast.

     

    I don't know about that.  As long as Belicheck is still coach I don't see the Patriots just disappearing when Brady retires.  If Brady retired tomorrow I still put the Pats as the odds on favorite to win the AFC East this year with whoever they decide to put behind center.

     

    The Brady-less Pats are BEATABLE.  But they aren't a basement dweller.  If anything I'm afraid when Brady retires that Belicheck goes into overdrive just to try to win one without Brady and prove he was the reason for their success.

     

    Now when Brady and Belicheck both retire and the keys are left to McDaniels....that will be exciting.

    NFL Sunday Ticket

    Have had the ticket for over 15 years straight.  Last year they told me they would give it to me for half price.  Then charged me full price and then told me I was lying and that they never told me they would give it to me for half price.  It was an awesome and satisfying experience. 

    They did that exact same thing to me.  They forwarded me to their retention line when I told them I was going to cancel service (not joking around looking for a deal, I was literally  going to cancel) and they offered me NFL Sunday ticket for $49 as long as I signed on for another year.  The deal was ok so I did.  I paid the $49 up front then they kept charging me $49 every month afterwards saying I had 6 more installments.  I was livid on the phone but they essentially said I was lying and no one offered me Nfl Sunday ticket for $49 they offered me Nfl Sunday ticket max for 7 payments of $49.  And I’m like “that’s full price how is that an offer”.  I can’t begin to tell you how maddening those phone calls were.  Well I’m sure you’d know.

     

    Needless to say I dropped directv and now they call me once a week trying to offer me free crap that I don’t want.  I definitely prefer having cut the cord.  Will never deal with them ever again

    National Anthem Solution

    It’s kinda interesting how whenever you bring up this debate the immediate response is “they are disrespecting our troops and veterans” and you can’t even say a word to change anyone’s mind on the fact that these thug players are disrespectful pieces of trash and how our military deserves better than that.

     

    But then here we are in this thread I’m scrolling through like 10 pages of crap and it’s amazing to me how quickly the tone of a conversation can degrade down to pretty great depths of disrespect for an active member of our military simply because he disagrees.

     

    I’ve seen a lot of players kneel and get called every name in the book.  Never seen anyone of them call one of our vets a dum dum though and goad them onto a petty argument.

     

    I guess disrespect is in the eye of the beholder.  Or whatever works to further your argument.

    You are not allowed to get season tickets if you live outside of WNY.

    I wonder when they started this policy.  I’m a season ticket holder from CT (about 460 miles away aka 7 hour drive) and I’ve been a ticket holder since 2015.  I’m only able to attend 4-6 games on average but they’ve never once given me crap about the distance.  In fact when I finally did call a few years back for tickets the sales rep was saying how surprised I’d be if I knew how many people in CT were actually season ticket holders also.  I know a friend of mine is.  Kinda weird

    Could you mentally survive another drought?

    Well, after what we have just been through, how would you define drought?

     

    How many years before we start labeling it a drought?

     

    This is important because I only have so many years left. Forget about mentally. :wacko:

     

    It never felt like a drought to me until we were alone at the top (or bottom) of the list of longest time since last reaching the playoffs (and honestly I don’t even remember when we first took that distinction). Once all the other fringe teams started to get a lucky hot streak and remove their names from the list that’s when it hit me like “oh crap it’s been a long time”.  Before that it just felt like single seasons of missing the playoffs when the word drought gets thrown in it’s like one massive missed chunk of time and opportunities.

    Felt good this year to finally put the drought behind us and watch some meaningful football in January even if the outcome wasn’t exactly how I wanted.

     

    But it got me thinking I remember after that game in 1999 I was ready to avenge things next season and we didn’t.  Then I would have bet a fortune on Bledsoe/Moulds/Price combined with that insane defense would have gotten us back...but they didn’t.  JP never felt right, but then it was Trent Edwards pre-hit but nothing happened.  Then there was that lull where you kinda gave in to the drought then everyone thought Fitz was going to drag us out or if not him maybe EJ after he matured a bit and worked on his mechanics (which never happened).

     

    I guess the point is I never assumed a drought would happen and I never really noticed until we were knee deep in it.  While I think McBean has us pointed in the right direction what if another drought slowly crept up on us.  Would you have the stomach for it?
