  1. After last Sunday I'll be going every year. Why it took me this long is beyond stupid. Euphoria is the right word.
  2. I've lived my entire life north of Los Angeles but when we parked and I got out of lot 4 looking at Highmark all I could say to my sons was "I'm home"..... one of the greatest (long overdue) days of my life.
  3. I'm ashamed to say I finally attended my first Bills game in 60 years and it was a "religious experience". My sons and I had to cram the Falls, Duffs and early tailgating before kickoff. Very emotional seeing Highmark from Lot 4. No doubt I'll be flying out every year from here on . Got a pic with Pinto Ron and saw fans that have the same passion as I for this team. It was an absolutely indescribable experience. Definitely my biggest bucket list check off. Nothing about the city or game disappointed. It was absolute perfection although the game was nerve wracking. Seeing them celebrate the afce championship was exhilarating. Shaw I truly applaud amazing fans like you and so many others that go so much further than me. It finally took me a trip to the stadium to realize this. All I could say to my sons was "Is this heaven"?.....no, its Buffalo.....
  4. The good news is wind will be light. The bad news is the football will be frozen and shatter into 1000 crystalized pieces upon impact. Wind chill at kickoff will be around -5.
  5. Shaq will be doing the punting Saturday....
  6. No one will deny this season has been very fragmented for Cole Beasley. He's seen his role and targets diminish as the season finished. McKenzie IMHO is the heir apparent for the future at the slot. I think Sean will still use Cole here and there but nowhere like last season. Age and minor injuries I think have sealed his fate. And he knows it. Its extremely doubtful he or Sanders return next year.
  7. I agree. Flores or Fangio. You can't go wrong with either.
  8. Are we ever going to be allowed to play KC in Buffalo. At least I'll get to see the boys win in SoFi.
  9. Good to see college refs are just as worthless as NFL refs.
  10. The Chiefs were allowed to hold all day against us last year and then the Brady factor takes over and the Chiefs holds get called. You gotta love the choreography of the NFL.
  11. He's going to struggle in bad weather games. Especially involving any wind. That's just a fact. He's also likely to run more.
  12. 3 QBs will run the NFL for the next several years. Allen, Mahomes & Herbert.
  13. Very good analogy on Dabol. He either drives you nuts or all of sudden calls the perfect play. I'm not going to be devastated if he leaves. I think Josh might benefit from a fresh OC. Dorsey or whoever. I'd love a 49er style offense without losing the pass attack.
  14. Totally agree. Cole is slowly being phased out of the offense. McKenzie is the full time slot guy of the future. Neither Beasley nor Sanders will be on this roster next year. Never saw any confrontations yesterday as I finally attended my first Bills game ever. Religious experience. Greatest fans on the planet.
  15. The last 3 games we've run the ball very well when we pull the guards. But when we return to zone blocking our runs get snuffed. As far as NE's long term prognosis, Belichick and his ego will just be arrogant enough to think he can develop Jones. It's not going to happen and Belichick will retire within the next 5 years.
  16. In bad weather you take every point you can get. Figure the weather is neutralizing both teams. Saturday will be cold but it looks like substantially less wind. It's the wind that bothers Josh.
  17. So true. There are so many more like Corrente that need to go.
  18. Jerry Hughes will always be cherished in Buffalo. Thanks 55 for your intense effort and passion. You may have been held most of your career but Buffalo will always hold you in high esteem.
  19. When Rodgers & Brady retire, Josh will be a top 5 qb for 12+ years. He will win both an MVP and a SB. Absolutely no doubt in my mind.
  20. He's not wrong in alot of what he says. Analytics has ruined baseball. There's a place for statistical analysis but it has to be mixed with good ole common sense and human interaction. I still think you'll learn more with solid coaches giving you superior training as opposed to burying your head in a Ipad.
  21. Probably the most accurate list I've seen so far.
  22. Speculation is part of human nature. We'll always do it. The Steeler and Jag games were inexcusable. I'm sure the coaches and players will admit that. After we beat the Jets that would've matched last years 13 win season. The one thing I've learned about sports is it's not who's hot in the middle of the season. It's who's hot late. We'll be fine. Clean some stuff up.
  23. Totally agree and I said this last year. They're not built for longevity. Neither are worth 40+/yr.
  24. Those loses to Pittsburgh and Jacksonville were just stupid. The team and coaches were very unprepared for those 2.
  25. Playing McKenzie in the short term should be the lesser of 2 evils. Stevenson looks lost out there with no instincts. Just straight line speed. Isaiah at least can make a couple cuts here and there. At this point if you really want to play it safe let Hyde do punts and McK kickoffs.
