    I've never seen him play a game from start to finish. 

     

    I've never seen him win a game as the starting QB that didn't involve what an insurence agency would classify an "Act of God".

     

    I've never seen him quit either. 

     

    I've never seen him make excuses.

     

    I've never seen him work harder than he did this off-season to improve.

     

    I've never seen a player with so much to prove.

     

    While I don't expect Nate to look like Rodgers 2.0 I am hopeful that the work he put in during the off-season and the addition of Brian Daboll can show he is at the very least a servicible spot starter in the NFL.

    He doesn’t have that much to prove. He is a 5th round QB who is keeping the seat warm for a first round pick 

     

    Nobody expected him to be anything other than MAYBE a backup... except  saviorpeterman ... he should only be trying to prove to himself he can play.. not care about anyone else

    Do you think our OL can hold long enough to let a WR get deep? 

     

    That depends hapless... do I think we can go 3-4 wide with only 5 lineman and dial up a deep play? No

     

    Do I think Daboll can go singleback or I form, keep in some extra blockers and dial up a PA shot play? Yes

    Correct.  Also in the eyes of the law, there was technically no murder.

     

    He was originally charged with murder, along with his two buddies, but Lewis "flipped" and testified as state's witness.

    Both men were acquitted on grounds of "self defense", meaning as I understand it " In the eyes of the court, no murder took place. "

     

    That would be correct

    This is the winner ?. I don't get how people  don't talk about the murders ray Lewis committed. 

     

    I haven’t re looked back at that case in years but iirc nobody says anything about the Ray Lewis “murders” because he did not commit them

     

    he was a witness iirc

  4. From all of his preseason play from last year, his regular season appearances and his preseason this year

     

    Was the ability to throw over the top of a defense to keep them honest... yes a quick rhythm passing game is nice, but it’s only effective for so long if you cannot stretch the Defense 

     

    even Fitz attempted and has pushed the ball downfield, with success and failure 

     

    eventually CBs and Safeties will sit on the underneath routes and jam up passing lanes if   Peterman shows he will not throw downfield

     

    Hopefully he takes some calculated shots downfield this Sunday to Benjamin and Company to open up some room for Shady, ivory and Murphy

    The best a MAC school can hope for is an undefeated season and a shot at a Power 5 school in a major, but not playoff, bowl game. Kind of like Northern Illinois vs Florida State in the 2013 Orange Bowl.

    I wouldn’t say that is the best case, but most realistic ... if a MAC team can become a perennial powerhouse... and say win 4 straight MAC titles while going undefeated back to back seasons they may get a wildcard bid to the playoffs 

     

    like Boise State going to Fiesta bowl. 1 great season for UCF or any MAC school wouldn’t be enough but 4 in a row would imo

    Man Chan Gailey was bad.

     

    Would woulda thunk it? Other than every human.

    I don’t think he was great but Gailey had worse talent than McDermott, Ryan , Marrone and probably every coach on that list 

     

    His #1 receiver was a 7th round pick who freelanced routes and 2 undrafteds in Donald jones and David Nelson 

     

    not too mention not much talent on D... he still had our offense way more competent than it has been for most of the 21st century

    I believe that someday the bowl system will be replaced with a full playoff format.

     

     

    There is just too much money with the bowl system 

     

    they might expand the playoffs to 8-12 teams eventually but they will never get rid of bowls imo

     

    that is what makes college football, college football... a bowl game for a small school like UB is major. Especially since their change of making the rose bowl or a college playoff bowl are super duper slim

    Whilst in the Navy, I did LSD three times.  Can't got popped for LSD via urinalysis.  Never did it on the ship or at work.

     

    It was the most fun I've ever had, as far as being in an altered state goes.

     

    Shortly after getting out of the Navy, I was at a friend's party.  He had some of his college friends over.  One of them was this girl whose arms would both go up into a "robot" position (forearms parallel to the floor) unless she consciously put them down or used them.

     

    This was permanent neurological damage as a result of dropping bad acid.  That's when I decided I'd never do it again and I won't.  Just too dangerous.

     

    Shrooms are on my list of things to try.  I have access to weed whenever I want it; I just choose not to smoke it.  I agree with you guys re: weed and shrooms; but LSD ... that **** is poison (but so !@#$ing fun).

     

    Cant go wrong with the magic mushrooms my friend... not bad at all for your body

     

    eat an 1/8 or if you dare a 1/4 and you will unlock the secrets to the universe... and they make you really really happy?

    I never knew until just now that the very first 1960 Bills uniform was Honolulu blue, silver, and white.

     

    Kind of a Detroit Lions look to it.

     

    What do you think? I prefer the red/white/blue look myself.

    You just found that out now?!

     

    yes, Ralph copied the Lions look for year 1... being from the D and all

     

    Red white and blue is much better 

  10. I called EJ Gaines being good for us. I liked the trade and thought he was a good zone corner

     

    i also really liked the Karlos pick and thought he was a stud.

     

    this year I really like Marcus Murphy, Harrison Phillips to play some nice roles... I wouldn’t be surprised to see Murphy take the #2 eventually 

     

    Murphy is still on the unexpected list for me Because 1) season hasn’t started yet

     

    2) he started camp as an afterthought

    I thought his grandmother played lacrosse at Yale. 

     

    He wasn’t the custodian at Brown? I thought he studied the formulas from afar and became a sort of prodigy.. like rainman or something

    Name one pass he has ever gunned or proves he has an arm anywhere near Dalton. 

     

    Petermans scouting report is riddled with weak or average arm strength 

     

    Dalton’s talks about his good arm strength lol

    I'm not referring to fry time, I'm referring to when you sauce the wings afterwards. They can get soft pretty quickly. 

    This is all nitpicking. I'll take a quality batch of Buffalo wings anytime, but overall, dry rub -> smoker -> finish with sauce is my #1. 

     

    I agree a super saucy soggy wing is my least favorite

    Ditzy Fitzy has proven he can play in this league and has a significantly stronger arm than Nate. Not a strong one mind you, but he can get the ball down the field if he winds up. He's proven that. 

     

    Peterman really does have A lot to prove before he is even Fitz. A QB with 27000 passing yards and 170 TDs

    Haven’t read all of the responses on this thread but from the ones I saw they seem to be split between those who say you can find good wings outside of WNY and those who say you can’t.  As someone who is not from WNY I have tried Duffs and AB in my visits to Buffalo and I didn’t think they were any better than anywhere else.  I know if I said that to my Bills Backers group they’d kick me out but that’s just my take.  If you are ever in  Maryland (as some of you might be this weekend for Bills/Ravens) try to find a place that has old bay wings.  They are to die for.

     

    Those are more tourist traps

     

    you need to go to mom and pop pizzerias or bar bills
