  1. Well that's the thing.. we got the rex that stopped trying Not fat Rex who was the best defensive mind in the world... Just cuz you were the best doesn't mean you stay the best... Young hungry coaches kept adapting and he stayed stagnant Remember at the end of the day it is the Jimmy's and the Joe's not the x's and o's... You need good professional football players to buy in... Because they don't always He got professional football players to buy in to his system for a decade with top notch professional results He certainly was not overrated when he cared
  2. He was a really good coach who did not adjust to the new generation of the NFL At one point he was at the game and it slowly passed him up
  3. Best of Luck to diggs He helped Josh develop and they had great on field chemistry But nothing lasts forever
  4. Army has a 105 division 1 wins in the last 20 years UCF has 160 If you're going by numbers UCF deserves to stay
  5. Well that's a tame family lot Obviously all the shenanigans go on in the grass lots where it's a bunch of 20 30 40 year old partiers That's where barstool films
  6. You can still try to carry drunk people into the stadium They will then be escorted out by Erie county sheriff
  7. Do you just tailgate in Buffalo Bills lots? If you're in the big grass lots off southwestern there are hundreds of people going through tables for a decade
  8. 5* Donnie Freeman had the highest+ - at the McDonald's all American game And sharp shooting 4* commit SG Elijah moore won a national 3 point shooting contest! 2 studs incoming and Freeman said expect more!
  9. I don't pay attention 24/7 during the off season gossip so I have no idea what was or not said yesterday
  10. I'm not going to start retroactively hating diggs and saying he's not great lol If you're actually forcefully shopping somebody you're never getting your actual return that you deserve This hasn't nothing about if people view him as a number one or not if you're getting rid of him Randy Moss went for a fourth not because that's what the league viewed his talent as Diggs was easily still one of the best wide receivers in the AFC combined with his connection with Josh made him even better He's one of the best receivers in the last 30 years to put on a bills uniform you guys are crazy if you're going to crap on him on the way out When he never said anything bad about Buffalo or the bills while here
  11. You don't want to be too large for Long snapper Most division one long snappers are in the 220 to 260 range Not big enough for full-time line... Basically oversized fullbacks or linebacker size They have to have a good enough 40 to run down the field and cover punts
  12. He easily could be a 10-year plus European pro... He almost has zero chance at the NBA... I'll be generous and say 6%... But it's probably not that high So it really depends how lucrative the deals are that he's getting from Europe NFL ps is still like 200k or something
  13. Because it's the hardest sport in the world to get drafted It's only 60 players around the world... He might be a late second round pick... But more than likely he's undrafted He could have a great career in Europe .. but he's not tall enough or explosive enough for the NBA.. he would have a lot to work on
  14. Yea people are curious But it's gonna be a 3-4 year development at least if it did work Not many teams have 4 years to develop a PS level guy I wouldn't waste a draft pick on him but would ask him to TC
  15. If I was a head coach and had the ability to build a team I would recruit... 2 rim protecting centers 2 physical big 4s that rebound and defend A offensive SF who could put it on the deck and shoot 3s ... Also a ball moving 3 who could switch defend multiple spots... 3 n D 2 athletic PGs who can get into the paint whenever.. attacking PGs 1 SG who is adept of off screens and catch and shoot situations 2 bigger combo guards who could switch defense , and be jack of all trades guys .. rebound , pass, put ball on deck That's 11 ... And boeheim semi used to build teams like this back in Day
  16. Welp... At least the highest rate ranked recruit in like 8 years is coming here in freeman
  17. For sure they were inconsistent... They have been pretty inconsistent for years but even the last few times they have gotten in as low seeds they made the sweet 16 2-3 And they have really good guard play
  18. To be fair you're making me exaggerate.. because you're not grasping what I'm saying Situations for quarterbacks is Paramount Always has been always will be... Sitting has never been bad for a quarterback David Carr was an really good QB quarterback that turned into a bum.. while his brother was an average prospect who turned into a NFL starter Because of situations Again not every situation is created equal... Trevor Lawrence was the greatest 18-year-old quarterback I have ever seen I saw him at the All American game in high school and I said I would have drafted him in the first round out of high school... Even if you had to sit on them for 3 years developing him His physical gifts and technique were the purest I've ever seen at that age... And he went to a historically bad franchise and wins games He certainly is not a bust If he went to Andy Reid as a rookie I think he certainly is transcendent..but he didn't I actually was not high on CJ Stroud... And he certainly proved me wrong and will be a really good quarterback.. I didn't like the situation he was in But where they land has as much to do with their development as their talent... There is a reason why the worst teams have a chance at the best players... But there's also a reason why they're the worst teams There are so many variables... And coaching and grooming have a lot to do with it... But learning on the bench has never been bad for a quarterback's development Brees, Brady , rivers , Eli Manning , Rodgers ... Even Allen was supposed to sit... Because it's the best thing for a Young quarterback Fitzpatrick was a c-minus physical quarterback... But he sat for the majority of 3 years and learned the game... And he has more touchdowns than Tony Romo... Play him game one of his rookie year... And he certainly doesn't develop as well as he did from the bench.. he has more touchdowns than Kurt Warner and Ryan tannehill too It's been the way forever... If you physically can sit them... It's always a positive to learn the professional game and knock out some of the quirks they have .. and it doesn't always even knock them all out Getting thrown to the fire can create great quarterbacks but you never really knock out those quirks that you can while sitting on the bench... Sitting for a year or two can remove them You can be a great quarterback getting thrown to the fire but some of those quirks pop up under duress... A good quarterback will only be greater if he gets to sit and learn the game and eliminate some quirks Again you could never convince me Tom Brady wins his first six super bowls with anybody other than the greatest defensive coordinator in NFL history... Who was The Mastermind of a dynasty... And basically controlled young Tom Brady like young cus dmato controlled Mike Tyson There's a reason why it's called grooming a quarterback... They're not ready made 99% time
  19. To be fair I speak into the microphone into my phone If it can't spell parody correctly... Parity****.. well screw it I'm not taking my time to change it
  20. No offense... But I can tell football fans.. from people who have been around the game for a long time in a professional standpoint... Paid to coach the game You're literally trying to argue that situation's don't impact players which is the biggest thing for professional quarterbacks and players Josh Allen would certainly be better today if he got to sit and learn behind tyrod Taylor or Ryan Fitzpatrick for a year or two... Josh Allen is a Hall of Fame quarterback with some quirks that still pop out under duress... Sitting and learning on the bench helps alleviate those quirks... Mahomes had quirks... Sitting for an entire year help his muscle memory... Helped eliminate quarks under pressure... Josh didn't eliminate those .. he still one of the best quarterbacks in the world... But reverts to bad quirks under pressure... You can really alleviate that with time which he didn't get... Manning didn't get it either and he's one of the best ever.. Brady did get it and he's better Jared Goff didn't get sacked 70 times as a rookie and get his brain scrambled.. he was behind a good yet old school NFL coach... Jeff Fisher maybe wasn't ready for the new school of the NFL... Certainly knows the psyche behind developing a young player Peyton Manning had 28 interceptions as a rookie that doesn't mean he was ruined... Because he was getting raised the correct way to know that's not an issue... The support to keep him positive... You're on a bad team 28 interceptions is okay And Jared Goff is average , certainly not an NFL superstar... So a number one pick who is supposed to be in All pro... Has became an average NFL quarterback Due to circumstances Patrick mahomes... Was passed on by 9 NFL teams... Tyreek Hill called him trash as a rookie... But he got to learn the NFL game from the bench... Behind a pro bowl quarterback... And the best quarterback coach of the last 30 years And he developed beautifully because he wasn't thrown to the fire... Getting thrown to the fire is the death sentence of a young NFL quarterback... If you can survive being thrown to the fire as a QB you're basically an NFL Hall of famer
  21. I want every bills player to succeed But I'm starting to think Bass might be a lost cause... He certainly has talent... But... Unless he was really injured last year Something mentally was off... Because he certainly has the yips... Which you can't get in the NFL
  22. Cream rising to the top is certainly an overstatement... There are plenty of quarterbacks that have been ruined David Carr was much better than Derek Carr coming out... It's not even close But David went to an expansion franchise that rattled his brain and ruined him Quarterbacks learning from the bench has never been a bad thing in the NFL... It's the one position that does not need live repetitions to get better Tony Romo sitting on the bench for 3-4 years completely turned his career around and helped him turn into a borderline Hall of famer... If he got thrown to the fire as a rookie he's out of the league in 2 years But Jerry Jones took 4 years developing him and he has 30,000 yards and 200 touchdowns Taking care of quarterbacks is the biggest thing in professional sports... Way more are broken than made You could never convince me Tom Brady is Tom Brady... If he didn't get Bill belichick and to sit behind Drew bledsoe He's not Tom Brady if he goes to Atlanta lol Situations and development is Paramount to any NFL player.. Sam darnold had tons of talent but I knew he was ruined the second he was going to New York Justin Fields had tons of talent and I knew he was ruined the second he was going to Chicago.. because they haven't developed a quarterback in 30 years Justin fields in Seattle could get developed by Pete Carroll
  23. I've been around division one and professional kickers for 30 years Seen them kicking practice, warm ups and game time I've seen plenty of kickers kick from one yard or 3 yard or 5 yard starts... It's certainly possible What it does do is change the trajectory and muscle memory of kickers... Which is a fickle position that is prone to mental lapses Tyler bass can take 60 yards on one leg stride... But he's struggling to hit from 52... In NFL circumstances with a walk-up Going off of 5 yards or 4 yards will do nothing but mess up his stride and gait Without pressure or rushers he can hit 60 yards off of one step... You don't realize how much pressure and strain rushers coming off the edge create And the difference between getting a kick eight feet over the center's head... Versus 5 ft... 5 ft is getting blocked... 8 ft is clearing the best blocker Moving in two yards creates infinitely more blocks.. and strain on the kicker... This is not like 4th down analytics This has been practiced
  24. Circumstances, and coaching and development are certainly the biggest parts of how young quarterbacks develop Now I'm not saying Sam darnold was destined to be a Hall of famer... But going to the Jets certainly hindered his development They have developed like 1 quarterback in 60 years... They do not understand how to treat a quarterback.. they throw them to the fires and watch them suffer Even McDermott tried to sit Allen behind Peterman because it's logically the best thing for any professional quarterback... It helped Rogers, it helped Brady, it helped Eli and Philip Rivers Sitting and learning the professional game has never hurt any quarterback... Getting thrown to the fire has hurt more than it's helped If you could survive being thrown to the fire you will be all right... But destroys more And the Jets have been a dumpster fire for the majority of their history
