I'd say the same about McD winning a Super Bowl but I know there's those saying he should have at least two by now with the god Josh Allen.

Vegas Odds on Bills landing Michael Thomas
Doc Brown replied to Rich Stadium Original's topic in The Stadium Wall
He was a shell of his former self last year in the ten games he did play last year. Injuries derailed his career. Hard pass. -
Not sure if this deserves its own thread but since Biden's staying in the race this will be the direction the country presumably takes starting next January. Here's the 20 platform bullet points released by the RNC panel in a 16 page platform released today. Some of it is a little too hyperbolic/fear mongering for my taste but it beats the alternative imo. On abortion: (cnbc article) On abortion, the changes are stark. The old platform took a hard-line stance against abortion, calling for a “human life amendment to the Constitution” in a lengthy passage that used the word “abortion” dozens of times. The Trump-backed platform uses the word just once, in a brief paragraph that expresses support for allowing states to pass their own abortion laws while vowing to oppose “Late Term Abortion.” On entitlement reform: The 2016 and 2020 platforms noted, “Medicare’s long-term debt is in the trillions, and it is funded by a workforce that is shrinking relative to the size of future beneficiaries. ... When a vital program is so clearly headed for a train wreck, it’s time to put it on a more secure track.” It proposed a handful of reforms, including setting “a more realistic age for eligibility in light of today’s longer life span.” The new platform erases any discussion about the challenges of keeping the programs solvent. “Republicans will tackle Inflation, unleash American Energy, restore Economic Growth, and secure our Borders to preserve Social Security and Medicare funding for the next Generation and beyond,” it reads. “We will ensure these programs remain solvent long into the future by reversing harmful Democrat policies and unleashing a new Economic Boom.” ----------- Trump helped devise this and he's pry the least ideological and most pragmatic president of my lifetime. He and his advisors recognize the two areas they'll attack Republicans the hardest with policy wise is claiming Republicans will push to legalize abortion nationally and they'll cut medicare and social security. Many Republicans pry wish the stance wasn't so soft but it's a smart calculation if you want to win elections this November imo. Thoughts?

I know this is sarcasm but to really simplify things. -Josh Allen played great in 2 of the 4 playoff losses since he became elite in 2020. -The defense was good in 0 of the 4 playoff losses since 2020 and the offense was the only reason they had a chance in two of them. I know I'm beating a dead horse with this take but the only beef with Josh in the wins is the Shakir decision with Diggs wide open underneath given the circumstances of that game. Low percentage throw even if Chris Jones doesn't impact it. TERRIBLE situational awareness.

Who was your all-time favorite player that was NOT on the Bills?
Doc Brown replied to Alphadawg7's topic in The Stadium Wall
Players to watch - Barry Sanders, Deion Sanders, Randy Moss, and Michael Vick. Players I respected the most - Jerry Rice, Larry Fitzgerald, and Matt Stafford. -
Ok but their only head to head matchup was pretty ugly and our offense was healthy that day. That's what the casual fan remembers when comparing those two in the playoffs. Burrow: 22 for 36, 242 yards, 2 TD's, 0 INT, 6 rushes for 31 yards (0 TD), 77.9 QBR, 101.9 passer rating Allen: 25 for 42, 264 yards, 0 TD's, 1 INT, 8 rushes for 26 yards (1 TD), 57.6 QBR, 68.0 passer rating

So the "understanding" your referring to didn't involve Biden agreeing to it?
-
His snap count remained consistent when Miller came back. It was the rib injury against the Chiefs that derailed his season.

If that was the case I think Biden would've just said he wasn't running for re-election last year so the DNC could have a real primary that Harris wouldn't win. I still think Biden believes he can serve another term because he's in denial and the people closest to him (his wife and kids) are encouraging him to run for their own selfish reasons. His legacy if he loses to Trump will be the guy too selfish to step down to prevent the bad orange man from retaking office. Best of luck to him.

AP: Jon Gruden loses bid for reconsideration in NFL lawsuit

We have no clue who leaked the e-mails. When Congress investigated they concluded that the Commanders released them but the Commanders denied it. -

AFC Best Case Worst Case Season Outlook July Edition
Doc Brown replied to corta765's topic in The Stadium Wall
I'd rather have the #1 pick than go 9-8 and miss the playoffs so I disagree that's the worst scenario. You could trade that pick for a King's ransom. Even if you don't having the top pick and two likely high second rounders should give Allen a great team around him the 2nd half of his career. -
How close is Allen to Mahomes if all things were equal?
Doc Brown replied to Alphadawg7's topic in The Stadium Wall
It took Reid 21 seasons as a head coach to win a Super Bowl. So, if my math is correct get ready to party in 2038. -
How close is Allen to Mahomes if all things were equal?
Doc Brown replied to Alphadawg7's topic in The Stadium Wall
I agree that mentally Mahomes is better. He's a better distributor of the football and makes smarter decisions on a more consistent basis. You do seem to be implying that physically they're just the same though by both being "tremendous QB's." Even if I concede they have the same arm strength/escapability/make jaw dropping throws, etc....... Mahomes can't run over a defensive lineman and two linebackers to make a first down on 3rd and 12. That's why I don't think this isn't a clear cut debate that Mahomes is by far the better QB. -

If that was the case he'd employ the ridiculous "cash to cap" philosophy that Ralph Wilson demanded. -

Doc Brown replied to Alphadawg7's topic in The Stadium Wall
When Allen is completely on (think Dolphins home game last year) he's better than Mahomes at his best. He's hardly ever completely on though so you've got to give it to Mahomes for his consistency. Mahomes is more discipline too. If Mahomes was our quarterback in the last playoff game he would've checked it down to Diggs instead of trying a low percentage throw to the middle of the back of the end zone 25 yards down the field to Shakir. To me that's pretty obvious at this point. -
Steve Bannon Will Have To Report To Jail

You reap what you sow in life. It was his risk and he knew the consequences. -
If Biden had a stronger VP it would be the easiest decision ever to have that person run after the debate debacle. It would be a pretty seamless transition for her to get the nominee at the Convention compared to all the other names being floated around. It's really something that the Democrats think an 81 year old guy in obvious mental decline has a better chance than her at this point. I don't think they're wrong but they pry regret ever picking her for VP in the first place.
