    I am not sure why people don't understand that a decision is not made right or excused merely by the degree of conviction of the decision maker.

     

    Mahomes rode the pine all year but Watson had an absolutely historic start to his career...........how does saying McDermott didn't want Watson make McDermott look wise?

     

    Beane and McD will most likely succeed or fail due to the QB decisions in the 2017/2018 drafts...............their conviction means nothing at all..........only the results matter.

     

    Although I do sympathize with Beane if Allen doesn't work out because he is tied to McDermott so he will have to own McDermott's 2017 draft even though he was not with the organization.    Not hiring Beane in January made no sense but sure did confuse a lot of media who then wondered aloud........"hey it's so out of the box to bring in the matching GM AFTER the HC and lame duck GM have made a full offseason worth of key personnel decisions........maybe other teams will do the same!"?

     

     

     

    I never made an excuse or said it was right. Watson can be a superstar and yea it would have been nice to draft him 

     

    but if he wasn’t going to be a bill it’s a moot point. Of course McDermott and Beanes tenure are tied with Allen’s success or failure 

     

    I don’t make excuses in football. Not injuries, not lack of talent, not lack of WRs, nothing. For 100 years it’s been next man up and everybody prepares as a starter, atleast on good teams

     

    You are as good as your weakest link

    The most interesting part to me is that the Chiefs got their QB from the pick they acquired from the Bills..............then turned around and signed the guy who had been the Bills #1WR in Sammy Watkins.

     

    I felt that Tre White was going to be a stud when they drafted him............but it should be Mahomes or Watson throwing to Sammy Watkins in Buffalo this year.

     

    I like the Josh Allen gamble but they kinda' kicked the QB decision down the road one season too many IMO.........lead to them dumping A LOT of talent......studs Watkins and Cordy Glenn at two of the leagues' "money" positions...........as they desperately tried to assure they had the draft assets to move up for a QB in 2018.

     

    Now they have on paper a utterly suspect OL and a terrible WR corps.    All other things being equal KC's young QB has a MUCH better supporting cast than Buffalo's will and that matters a lot.    

     

    The common thread between Goff and Wentz last year was their teams loading up on supporting talent.

     

    People who assume the Bills will just spend a bundle in FA next offseason to replace lost or missing assets on offense are making a very big assumption.    

    You assume that is if McDermott wanted Watson or Mahomes.

     

    maybe he did not and he obviously didn’t want Sammy either.

     

    its not an ideal situation for a young QB but Mahomes and Allen are both very similar prospects,I even had a higher grade on Allen. So at the end of the day I can live with Tre+ Allen

     

    i didn’t like the Sammy trade but I’m over it. He’s cuckoo for coco puffs

    Look at the QBs Stevie Johnson played with and how bad the coaching and team was. He still has 3 years that we’re as good or better then any other Bills WR ever. He needs to be on the team IMO

     

    Reed, Moulds , Lofton, Dubenion , than Stevie 

     

    Yea he had the 3 1000 yards seasons barley  , but he was force fed by Fitz who isn’t a horrible QB. He’s a 10 year vet 

     

    Fitz made Stevie’s career and he never did anything after him

    Donnie Henderson ?

    i may be wrong of course. But that year Leodis learned to turn around on time and then become the receiver. Often beat his guys but struggled mightily to deflect the ball even when in position. 

     

     I used to cringe when Anyone thew deep on him. you just knew we were screwed.

    and then he got it. and then he was injured.

    cruel fate.
    keep hustlin aint no lie

     

    Not sure. It could be Henderson, I was just shooting. 

     

    I thought Byrd had a stint here 5 years ago but last year was his first and only 

     

    so yea prolly Donnie Henderson

    all 3 of these posts just add to the narrative that buffalo team and fans are racist......this thread is pointless and just mean......grow the !@#$ up

     

    I don’t think that’s racism, that’s humor on a message board 

     

    Grow up man. I loved mckelvin and I can admit he talks funny 

     

    so do rednecks

    Witcher 3 is probably the best game on ps4. 

     

    I’m a big fan of the Souls series, so Dark Souls 3 and Bloodborne are must plays.

     

    Of course any Elder Scrolls game is a must play, although I maintain that Skyrim was trash compared to Oblivion. Completely dumbed down in almost every way although is gorgeous to look at.

     

    I’ve been desperate for a new game, but I’m usually very underwhelmed by most titles these days. I really only love RPGs and there hasn’t been many great titles of late. 

     

    Sadly that is how many games are going. Better to look at but not as In depth...

     

    Oblivion isn’t as deep as Morrowind either

    That is just the sort of leader I want at the helm when times get rough! :thumbsup:

     

    Going all the way back to George Washington at Valley Forge who said "Gentlemen was are fighting the world's largest Empire. We are doomed"

     

    Very inspiring.

     

    I had kin at valley forge. Probably the most interesting winter in American history

    Always loved Pitfall and Defender back in the day.

     

    The best of the old arcade style games is "Galaga" however. 

     

    LOVED that game.

     

    You can play it online for free nowadays! 

     

    Would have saved me a lot of quarters back in the day.

     

     

    Sounds very much like the Fallout games in concept, even if it's a different setting.

     

    I'm a giant Fallout fan so I will probably really like Skyrim as well.

     

    Fallout 3 was Bethesda’s project after making The Elder Scrolls 4:Oblivion 

     

    Gameplay is similar and Bethesda does a tremendous job on both. They take 5-7 years each project

    Cool! Thanks for the input.

     

    I think I will sink into this over Holiday Weekend.

     

     

     

    It’s an amazing experience for a video game. Every non playable character has schedules . Shops open around 9-10 am and close around 9-10 pm

     

    you break the law (stealing, assault, murder etc) and get caught you go to jail

     

    you can make a thief like stealth character, or a heavy armor brawler or a mage or whatever or however you wanna play 

     

    there is a storyline but it’s totally open world and you can do anything at anytime and all your choices have consequences 

     

    It’s awesome. The expansions to Skyrim are top notch as well

    I still have my PS3 hooked up and have "The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim" sitting here, having never played the game... (for PS3).

     

    I guess this is highly recommended?

     

     

     

    O my goodness.

     

    yes yes yes

     

    Greatest RPG series ever created. The depth of the world and freedom and consequences of actions make it one of the best games ever 

     

    the depth of the game is unreal. I still play it 7 years later and can learn new things

    I can only think the author did not due his homework since Kyle was probably drafted when the author was in High School.

    Kyle might go down as one of the best value picks by the Bills all time. Some of you  that watched the Bills from the 60's and 70's can correct me or give better instances. 

     

    Tom Sestek is on the Bills Wall Of Fame and is one of the best dlineman of his ERA

     

    he was drafted in the 17th round

    I’m just asking the question about whether he could be compelled even though his religious beliefs are a preotected right. I don’t want to get into the weeds about whether he should be an NFL player or not. Let’s not over think this.

     

    I’m not saying he shouldn’t have the right lol I’m a very conservative Catholic and I played for over 15 years. Let them play

     

    Im saying an NFL player should rethink his profession if he will not attend games on Sundays because religious beliefs 

     

    He’d be a glorified practice player
