  1. I'll pass this info on to Paris If you don't mind. I'll also get her seating info this week and give you a shout back. I already told her I have a friend from our Bills forum that lives in Texas that I thought might be going. Awesome. My niece wants to get Jim Kellys signature on her football and I'm sure he will make it to the game. Perhaps you can give her a hand. I know your not bashful at all about mixing it up with Bills players.
  2. Allen has the most rushing TD's in the league from the QB position so go figure. If nobody figured Jackson out yet what happened vs Buffalo? It hard to argue with 36 TD's, so you got me there...
  3. My army Brat niece is taking her husband and 5 year old son to his 1st ever live NFL game. She's stationed in San Antonio and is taking advantage of the location. A football that was given to her at a practice back in 92 in Ferdonia by Caldwell Gardener is going along for the ride. It originated from a pass by Jim Kelly and after Gardner had dropped it the ball rolled off the practice field. My niece picked it up and kind of rolled it back to him. The giant of a man picked the ball up and handed it back to her, ruffled her hair and took off back onto the practice field. My niece became a Bills fan for life. She was only 4 years old at the time and cherishes the memory. As did my late Dad who had taken her to the practice.. Naturally the good luck ball (we call it) has taken on special meaning over the years. The good luck ball is going to Houston. Note: Correction on the location
  4. Did the Ravens annihilate Buffalo? With that in mind do you honestly think the Bills are that much better then the Packers? Speaking of arm do you realize the Ravens have a run 1st O and Lamar Jackson has one of the lowest pass attempts in the league? Again Mike Vick Ii and the league will learn how to stop him If injury doesn't stop him 1st IMO.
  5. The league will learn how to counter Lamar Jackson by stopping the run. The hits Jackson takes will start adding up IMO. No way even with what I know now am I taking the second coming of Mike Vick over Josh Allen. Can Jackson beat QB's like Mahomes or Rodgers with his arm? I think not Time will tell...
  6. Listed as 4 with 3 GS, 12 receptions, 166 yards
  7. Robert Foster 13 games, 3 receptions, 64 yards, height 6' 2" weight 196 Duke Williams, 1 game, 6 receptions, 108 yards, height 6' 3" weight 225 Williams is bigger then Foster and given the opportunity plays bigger then Foster.
  8. Duke for the most part became Barkleys go to guy vs the Jets. Foster has had his moments, but very few and far between.
  9. As young as McD might be I think good coaches spin off of good coaches and Daboll is taking notes on how McD is building a championship caliber football team. I for one am not at all a fan of losing Daboll...
  10. I agree, albeit Barkley was rusty which is not surprising. For mostly backups I came away from the game thinking If our backups had more play time they might actually win some football games. I think it was a good opportunity for the Bills coaching staff to scout out our own players and perhaps add a few wrinkles by way of athletes into the game plan the league hasn't seen much of yet. Williams and Yeldon are good wrinkles IMO.
  11. You define die hard Bills fan OP. The Buffalo Bills need the big bodied Duke Williams on the football field period. I also wouldn't mind seeing Yeldon a little more involved with the Offense. Brian Daboll continues to take heat for the Bills inconsistencys/woes on a very young and inexperienced offensive unit that is still looking for all the right pieces. Players need to execute plays properly for the Offense to move down the field and score points successfully. Oline needs to run block and protect and skill position players need to get the job done. I make these comments in light of all the Daboll critique lately and remember seeing the same kind of comments regarding Greg Roman once upon a time. How about some continuity for a change. Thanks Shaw for another great read. Always much appreciated. Houston Texans here we come!!!
  12. On a scale from 1 - 10 giving the group of WR's that played in the AFC Championship vs Raiders a 10. I give the Bills current WR's a 4 and consider them a little below league average. Don't get me wrong, the contributions by Brown and Beasley are much appreciated. KC's WR corp by way of example is easily a 10 with arguably one of the best QB's in the league throwing to them. ( From every angle possible) The size disparity at WR vs most teams in the NFL is troubling... On a side note: Josh Allens forte is high velocity laser shots. Allens arm strength has been well documented. Josh Allens arm gives him the ability to go places on a football field most NFL QB's can't go at a higher velocity. The downside in some instances is less arc on the throws. It does not match up well with small WR's in my humble opinion.
  13. Allens high velocirty throwing style would benefit greatly with bigger targets /bigger catching radius IMO. Myself personally, all 3 requirements are a must. (Being a man of good character might also be a requirement Bills HC McD may insist on when drafting)
  14. Yes, we have all witnessed Josh call an audible. To what extent, I don't know, from a pass play to run perhaps.
  15. Even though Allen has the ability to change the play ?
  16. Hey man, I asked Josh/Santa for a playoff game for Christmas,, and he delivered. We just have to Billieve. Happy Holidays everyone! (Can someone please photo shop a santa beard on Josh that includes his WR's in the picture as little helpers)
  17. Dominate is a pretty strong word for a game the Bills were 8 yards away from taking into OT. Same can be said about the Ravens game. Slight edge is a better descriptiion IMO. Most sports analyst/commentators are in agreement. Buffalo has narrowed the gap... ...and are a force to be reckoned with... ...One Buffalo strong...
  18. The Baltimore Ravens are the front runner to win the Superbowl. From a run vs pass perspective the Ravens are more conservative then Buffalo. How do you explain that? Unlike my fellow Bills fan who probably gets tired of arguments on a daily basis. I love a good argument. ( where is the bandit when you need him) Buffalo needs to continue down the road of improvement. Of that we can both agree...
  19. One bright shiny object to go with Allen at the WR position and its very possible Buffalo beats the Ravens and Pats IMO. Thanks for another great review OP
  20. Clearly the Bills WR position could use an upgrade. Nothing against Brown or Beasley. A bigger sized legit 1 to compliment them and the Bills are golden.
  21. B B Defense is stingy enough to make a grown man cry, and you have to give them some credit...
  22. I understand, I really wish the Buffalo Bills could have added a fella like A J Green to the Bills roster before the trade deadline. Best option Buffalo has now in my humble opinion Virgil is to get the TE position more involved in the game plan. Go hard Knox...
  23. its Virgils thoughts in no particular order, and he has allot of them. Virgils a thoughtful kind of guy. He's good that way...
