I think his issues go beyond culture. And one strike and he’s gone. I feel bad for the guy and would love to have his talent on the team. I just don’t think he can control himself. I get the feeling there is a lot of culture on the Pats and they ultimately had to give up trying.

I would not do it. Great talent but personal issues make him too unreliable. If not, Pats would have kept him.

I don’t think he needs to move. I think he’ll end up doing well at his position. That said, it is not the worst idea from a physical standpoint. Most people think of ends as taller and more angular. But Robert Mathis played at 6’2”, 245 lbs. Ed is quick and strong. He could be a bigger version. The questions are 1) does his quickness hold up for the increased distance to get around quicker and longer tackles vs. the “phone booth” of guards and 2) how long would it take for him to adjust and learn the position/techniques.

This week too. On one play Goedert grabbed him, spun him around and threw him to the ground. No flag. On one of the touchdowns you can clearly see him with the lineman’s arms around him with a fist full of jersey. No flag.

Apparently cursing a lot at the tv now has a positive effect.

I know. Just stirring the pot. It’s just, as you say, dumb. It is supposed to be an award for PLAYER of the week, not DEFENSE of the week. And the Chiefs o-line is considered the weakest part of their prolific offense. So giving an award to an individual player who had one sack against a so-so line vs. Jordan’s 3 sacks in one half just because his team did so well in prime time is, again, dumb. But I’m not really surprised by it since we’re the Bills.

Ding, ding, ding. We have a winner. You get your choice of prize from the bottom row.

But none of his games were prime time against his former team so this can’t be valid. His playing doesn’t count. At least that’s what I’m told. ?

Exactly ?

Sorry if this was posted somewhere else. Didn’t see it. He had a sack and two tackles for loss. Huh? https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2019/10/09/justin-houston-named-afc-defensive-player-of-the-week/

My Titan fan co-worker said that it felt like it was 70-80% Bills fans. He also commented on how loud we were. ?

Was at the game yesterday and ran into a co-worker who is a Titan’s fan. Saw him this morning and he said the number of Bills fans was crazy. Felt like he was at a Bills home game. Said that in his section he was completely surrounded by Bills fans. He wasn’t impressed by the Titans support given that it was a big game for them.

True but Murphy was being held right behind it so offsetting anyways.

Bills fans well represented in Nashville. Having breakfast at The Diner, Nashville and almost every table is Bills fans!

Heading out to Nashville. Go Bills!!!

It’s ok. It’s a win-win situation. Either he has to begrudgingly give props to our D which he doesn’t OR he has to admit he sucked donkey balls and couldn’t generate more offense than Josh did with multiple turn overs.

Because I think he’s young and still learning. Was it frustrating when he would look for the hero pass downfield vs. taking the short play? Yes. Has he also led us back for wins? Yes. The talent is there. The leadership is there. It’s too early, in my opinion, to give up on him. I still think he’ll be the answer and one loss to a great defense after he has been knocked out of it by a bull#### hit before he could potentially complete yet another comeback doesn’t change my mind. I think that is way too emotionally kneejerk.

Nate, why are you hanging out on the boards?

Nope

This. I typically don’t subscribe to these kinds of conspiracy theories but I absolutely believe this one to be true.

I’m going to be there. Section 109, row A, seats 23 and 24. Can’t wait!!! Will be sporting my Allen jersey.

Given this is magic land, you are definitely on to something here.

But if we’re going animated, Kelly, I’m going Rick. What can’t he do in any universe? And he’d also be a laugh at tailgates.

How’d you know? Actually, have to admit I haven’t watched it.
