Jadeveon Clowney could miss regular-season games
oldmanfan replied to HOUSE's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
You’d lose -
I don’t listen to Mike Schopp, I have no idea what he said or didn’t say, and thus you’re wrong again.
-
No, you’re wrong. People here are blasting McD for not taking him because he had this one great season that no one would have predicted. One season. If you tell me you thought Mahomes would have had the season he had last year in his first full season I call BS.
-
You and others need to read. If any team saw that Mahomes would have the year he had last year, they would have spent the farm to move up to # 1 to get him. No one did including Reid. And the reason they didn’t is because Mahomes had flaws coming out. Anyone who says they knew Mahomes would be the guy we saw last year pre-draft is full of it.
-
And I wanted Watson. My statement was that no one saw the kind of season Mahomes had last year before the draft. And I stand by that. If they had every team in the league would have tried to move up to the # 1 pick to grab him.
-
Tell you what. Go back through your post history and copy the one you posted before the 2017 draft saying Mahomes would be a star. Or pipe down. There were concerns about Mahomes in terms of his footwork and his coming out of an offensive scheme that had never produced an NFL quality QB. He had a great season last year, and no one would have seen it coming that early in his career before the 2017 draft. And if you say you did you’re not telling the truth, that simple. This retrospective critique stuff is fun to do. I still cringe over the Lamonica trade. But it accomplishes nothing. It lets people who have nowhere near the data teams have a reason to beeyatch.

Was Mahomes a can't miss pick? if so why wasn't every team maneuvering to get the # 1 pick to take him? If Reaid felt that way why didn't he?
-
No they didn’t. You want to continue to make a point that is not necessarily valid. You assume Allen will not be as good as Mahomes based on one season. And you continue to indict our guys but ignore that every other team in the league could have drafted Mahomes. Do you indict them all as well?
-
Your take is flawed. One could easily say every team in the NFL made a terrible mistake not drafting Tom Brady. They all should have traded up to the #1 spot to get him, including New England. Same with Montana. Your take also ignores what was going on with that draft. No one, I repeat, no one, thought Mahomes would have the kind of season he had last year. Coming out there were concerns with his footwork and that he was coming from a system that had never produced a decent NFL QB. Your take also shows inconsistency in judgement. You seem to dismiss Allen based on his rookie season, and at the same time you want to anoint Mahomes as savior because of one really great year. What if Allen steps up this season , and Mahomes regresses? I do a lot of research and statistical work; an N of 1 is hardly enough on which to base conclusions. McDermott and Beane have done a good job drafting talent thus far. The talent is young and will have to develop, but kids like Edmunds, Allen, Oliver, ford et al look like they should have long productive careers.

Any All-Pro Bills this year?

Watching AFL football was more fun that watching the current NFL Tailgating will work out fine if and when the stadium is built downtown Using the terms hater. homer or Kool Aid drinker should earn the user a permanent ban

Live just north of Indy and friends have asked me what Bills fans would have done Saturday night. Would we have booed Luck like they did here? My response was no. We would have just marched down to the field and hung him right on the 50 yard line.

Josh Allen studying Tom Brady (SI)
oldmanfan replied to Buffalo86's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
God forbid a young QB decide to watch film on one of if not the best to ever play the position. Who knows what could happen next, maybe he'll commit another sin and watch film of Montana. -
I direct IVF labs, and thanks for pointing this out. Most grand multiple pregnancies are from use of ovulation drugs and them natural conception. You don't know how many eggs get ovulated and then fertilized doing that. I hope her pregnancy turns out OK. Those are really high risk both for mom and the babies.

Ed Oliver doesn't look very good
oldmanfan replied to Buffalo_Stampede's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
If people would quit expecting he’s the next Aaron Donald they’d see he’s doing fine. -
You watch.
