Harlan is great. Ian Eagle is my top announcer currently. He did call SB XXV though.

Mostly folks for whom that 10G is like $50 to an average fan. Pats* Rams would be closest but I agree. I believe the participating teams do, but is far fewer tickets than they received back when the Bills last made a SB.

See what happens in FA first.

Yes it was, but it was better than now. At least mildly interesting and a last football fix after the SB.

At that price it’s a pass for sure.

The pattern is that guys hire people they e worked with, did favors for them in the past , etc etc. it’s a very closed shop so you get lots of “ recycled “ coaches. There’s no doubt it’s a pattern that happens around the league, it’s just not a pattern of racism.

Networking. People in charge hire their friends and guys they’ve worked with before. It’s how the world works. Lots of guys flame out as head coaches. Peyton Manning spoke highly of him. That will carry a long way in the NFL, probably years past it’s relevance. They probably think those QBs just aren’t very good.

Titans D line had about ten sacks. Both games were close and looking dicey for the Bengals late, but CIN got a key takeaway on defense. That can win you some games especially in the playoffs, but it’s not reliable.

Total joke since it left Hawaii.

Yeah, Anthony Bourdain, damn.. really cool guy and I miss that show.

Not surprised , what with the Brady retirement and the uncertainty in Green Bay. Throw in the SB participants being the Rams and Bengals and an early favorite of Bills/ Chiefs looks obvious.

Good first name for her.

Personal freedom of choice is always the best advice with something like this.

A demand is not “ advice”.

The draft is already an event. It’s fine the way it is.

Lol.. that brings an interesting question. How much potential $$ winnings would it take for you to want the Bills opponent in the Super Bowl to win? I’d have a hard time convincing myself to root for that outcome but I know it would take a LOT more than than a G. 100k ? 250k, 500k?

Why are you worried about the Giants? Besides any time a new coach takes over some assistants will leave to work with friends elsewhere.

Voted for ten years, but given your choices I took it to mean ten more years.

It’s a fair assessment for now. Of course , a draft still takes a few seasons to get a true grade. As was brought up, the Chiefs were a final four team as well and got more out of their picks than the Bills. Brown made a solid and important contribution to the Bills OL in 2021. If he’s a long term RT and Rousseau turns into a dependable pass rushing threat the draft will be a good one. If the Bills had selected Humphrey, they’d probably get an A.

Wallace was supposed to have inside leverage and he played outside. Major screw up there that didn’t help.

With the 13 second debacle still an open wound, I’d still say I feel very good about the state of the Bills. They have the best ( or 2nd best depending who you ask) QB in the AFC. WRs are very good, Gabriel Davis just had a 200 yard playoff game. I definitely believe they’d be preparing for the Super Bowl now if not for that inexplicable sequence at the end of regulation in KC. They will have a few departures and holes to fill but that’s the league now. Some restructuring of contracts will probably be in order. Still, I expect this team to be in the AFC championship game next season.

I think Oprah should buy the team.

I can see waiting to see if there is anything substantial there. Pretty major allegation if true. Then there’s those new deals the NFL has with the Sportsbooks. The league always distanced themselves from gambling in the past; probably for good reason.

Exactly and there were plenty of reports speculating as much. Why are folks shocked and faux outraged about it when they predicted it? These whiny temper tantrums about the ways of the world need to stop. People hire their friends/ colleagues when they get the big promotion. I mean I don’t wonder how many caucasians some rapper has in his entourage when he makes it big. Doesn’t offend me, it’s just how s$&+ works in the real world. I’d rather listen to talk radio or sports tv talking about Brady’s freakin retirement than this crap.

Continuity means running the Erhardt-Perkins system Josh has spent 3 years in. Don’t underestimate the importance of that. Brady worked in that one offensive system most of his career. Now obviously there will be differences in play calling style with Dorsey, but the concepts will remain similar. Don’t want to install a new offense when you’re competing for a championship.
