I Am Not Optimistic Going Into This Season

Not just complain but be disappointed -
I Am Not Optimistic Going Into This Season
oldmanfan replied to longtimebillsfan's topic in The Stadium Wall
Because we have drama queens around here. The OP talks about being a fan since 1963. I’ve been a fan since 1960. I still hold the memories of the AFL championships near to my heart. I lived through the horrors of the late 60’s-early 70’s and the late 70’s-early 80’s. I had the pleasure of watching the Juice and the Super Bowl era teams, and have watched the ups and downs in the 2000’s. I am excited to watch this year - with guys like Josh and Diggs and Miller and Milano we have as good a shot as anyone. -
There are people on this board who want the Bills to lose so they can brag and say I told you so.

And Ramsey is hurt. -
With the way the NFL is structured you cannot have All Pros at every spot on the O line. But that is what it appears people want. Morse is solid at C, the two new guys at G are significant upgrades, Dawkins has always been a decent LT, and Brown comes in for his third year injury free so we get a better chance to see what he can do. As for Ifidi everyone was screaming that we needed a veteran backup T, Beane gets one, and now everyone screams he’s not good enough. Do you think you were going to get a Pro Bowl quality guy after roster cuts? Too many fans live in a world of delusion. I believe in building from the inside out. I would criticize Beane for not getting Humphrey instead of Boogie. But the really good tackles go way before where we’ve been drafting.

I think both Kincaid and Torrance will make All Pro teams. Williams will be a solid starter. The other three will stay on rosters as backups.

Also true. But some never let facts get in the way of opinions. As far as team ownership and such my impression was always that Terry was a hockey nut and jumped at the chance to buy the Sabres, but it was Kim and her passion for the Bills growing up in WNY that drive them to buy the Bills.

Never say never. I think we are stronger at RB, TE, G, WR depth, and with an O coordinator with a year’s experience. Or to put it another way we did just what folks have been clamoring for and put more pieces around Josh. -
Yes, predictions are what you do when looking into the future. We got a glimpse of the future for defense last year by the name of Levi. And he looked pretty damn good.

Relax -
Fans: WE HAVE TO SIGN A VETERAN TACKLE!! NOW!! GET IT DONE!! Beane: We’ve signed a veteran tackle FANS: NOT THAT ONE!!!
-
I predict a good year for Brown now that hie’s injury free.
-
No. YOU have been trying to replace him, not the Bills. Plus Hamlin and Wildgoose are on rosters. Plus Doyle who keeps getting hurt unfortunately.
-
Two multi year starters. So yes wonderful
-
Not drafting Creed over Boogie is the one I would criticize. Other than that he’s done pretty well.

How much longer will the window be open?
oldmanfan replied to JohninMinn.'s topic in The Stadium Wall
We always have a shot with a guy like Josh, just like the Chiefs will always have a shot with Mahomes. -

As long as Josh is QB -
How about we quit panicking about the O line?

No way Buffalo loses the Sabres. The league knows Buffalo is one of the best hockey towns in the NHL.

Benford - Was he being showcased? (Opinion, not a rumor)
oldmanfan replied to Alphadawg7's topic in The Stadium Wall
No. Great CB depth - why do some fans insist on weakening it? -
What do you all think of games being canceled?
oldmanfan replied to Miyagi-Do Karate's topic in The Stadium Wall
I disagree. If a life threatening situation you call the game. Neither team wants to play if they are not sure a player is going to make it. -

Cancelling these preseason games? No problem whatsoever. During the season if it’s life threatening like Damar no problem either.- 64 replies
