No way to tell but the majority of voters didn't want to find out so it's irrelevant.

Step 1 - Implement tariffs to make my approval go down from -1 to -8. Step 2 - Mostly cave on tariffs to make my approval go back up from -8 to -1. I'm not an expert but maybe just stop getting in the way of the free market

Do you mean Black Monday? There's always concerns with market corrections and it's mostly pushed by people who want the stock market to drop so they can buy low. Also, people who make their living selling gold or other metals benefit off of people's fears of the market tanking. You obviously can't prove our 401k's would be higher if Trump didn't implement tariffs. However, I do think his actions made a lot of people's pockets a lot lighter than it should be right now.

NFL to Have Vote That Would Alter Playoff Seeding
Doc Brown replied to Doc Brown's topic in The Stadium Wall
Make them the 7 seed. It would be weird to celebrate winning the division in week 18 but being eliminated from the playoffs. Celebrating pouring champagne for five minutes followed by five minutes of sitting down devastated? -

That was my thought too. Although, nothing would've changed in the last five years as far as Bills WC opponent goes. -
NFL to Have Vote That Would Alter Playoff Seeding
Doc Brown replied to Doc Brown's topic in The Stadium Wall
I didn't catch that. Thanks. If this rule was put in last year the WC games for the AFC would have just had the Chargers host the Texans in the WC round. Everything else would be the same. NFC would have same teams but three different WC matchups.... WC Games would've been Bucs @ Eagles, Rams @ Vikings, and Packers @ Redskins. -
Thought this was interesting. All four division winners make playoffs but then are reseeded 1 through 7 based on record. Division winners would have the higher seed if they had the same record as a non division winner. I'm not a fan of this because the way the scheduling format is set up leads to an unbalanced schedule (eg., playing AFC North and NFC North is a lot harder than playing AFC South and NFC South). The only tweak I would make is this would only apply this if a division winner finishes below .500. Thoughts?

James Comey to be investigated for posting “8647”
Doc Brown replied to Big Blitz's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Well, 8645 didn't work and now he's back in office. I think Comey's just a weird dude that enjoyed being in the spotlight. He knew there's pry half a million people with no life constantly monitoring social media posts. If not, then he's a dumb weird dude. -
That's wishful thinking. As nauseating as it for me to say, it's pry more likely they'll be even better after being embarrassed in the Super Bowl. I thought they showed a lot of character being down 40-6 and still playing as hard as they did to make it 40-22. Too good of a head coach. Too good of a starting QB. Just a solid organizational culture It's us, them, and the Ravens. I'd be shocked if any other AFC team makes the Super Bowl.

A better way to determine strength of schedule is following the money (Vegas over/unders) for this year. In that case we have the 5th easiest schedule in the league. Unless you're a degenerate gambler who makes their own power rankings but I digress.

Food's always been a better safe than sorry thing with me as my immune system sucks. With air fryers you pry get 95% of the quality heating up the pizza than made fresh.

Don't forget that Tremaine Edmunds is finally old enough to vote.

Does the placement of the bye week really matter?
Doc Brown replied to Billsfed1's topic in The Stadium Wall
Jeez. Don't give them any ideas. -
It's not that surprising to me because the market sentiment was pretty strong when he entered office and reached record highs after he was inaugurated. Then Trump did his bs trade crap and the markets had the worst three months since Carter was in office. It was more people of retirement age that were sweating it out as opposed to long term investors. Once Trump backed off a lot of investors took the opportunity to buy the dip. One person should not have that much power when it comes to influencing the global economy imo. Congress needs to pass legislation to regain the power of the purse when it comes to implementing tariffs.
-
This article was over a month ago and major indexes are not down significantly since he took office. Stock indexes (S&P, Dow, Nasdaq, etc.) are about where they were when he took office. You're right though in if he was locked in a room since inauguration and did nothing we'd pry be much better off.
-
At least they've got that going for them.
-
No. We're good. Trump told Tim Cook to stop moving Apple's operations from China to India and to the US so we can pay at least a 1/3 more. Completely in line with isolating China which I thought was the goal. Or was it bringing back crappy manufacturing jobs to the US? Guy knows what he's doing. President's should regularly lecture private company CEO's too.
-
That can't be the plan though because there's no guarantee one would be available. I would've absolutely traded a 2nd and a 5th for DK Metcalf and paid him the same amount. A strong offensive line, a strong running game, and then allowing Coleman to develop as a WR2 with Shakir/Kincaid as slot threats. Talk about opening up an offense. We saw what an aging Amari Cooper did like you mentioned in the Chiefs game. There's a reason Beane went on WGR to chastise the hosts about WR's. He wanted to change the narrative because he's failed at drafting day 1 or 2 WR talent starting in 2021 imo. Now we have to pay WR's more than they're worth in free agency (Samuel, Palmer) or hope Elijah Moore can somehow break out in year 5. Beane does a lot of things right. WR seems to be his blind spot though imo..
-
How sustainable is that though? The problems is when the run game isn't rolling and we get far behind against a good defense we get stat lines from Allen of 9 of 30 for 131 yards or 16 of 29 for 180 yards. Guys just aren't getting open. Josh starts to press and some of his bad tendencies come back. People point to the loss of Shakir but that shows how little talent/depth we had at the position. I think you're correct and we may be WR hunting again during the season. I know it is. Congratulations. You suck less than we thought because our QB has become Houdini at avoiding negative plays because our WR's can't get open.
-
I was more responding to this belief that we're just so far way from the Chiefs and we'll never get by Mahomes. We lost by what? Six in OT, three, and three against them two of the last three years. Does that narrative even start if Gabe catches the TD with 9 seconds left instead of 13? I wish we added more true play makers on offense but upgrading the defense even a little could do the trick. That's assuming the Chiefs are more in our heads than they are the player's.
-
Don't know what you're talking about man. I hope they prepare better for the actual games. Can't believe that was almost 20 years ago.
-
They're taking lost yardage due to sacks into account which lowers the passing yards of every team. Bills lost the fewest amount of yards due to sacks so we went from 17th in overall passing yards to 9th in passing yards and yards loss due to sacks. Shows the importance of avoiding negative plays which is why I argued for Josh winning the MVP besides the fact that I'm a homer.

Buffalo Bills 2025 Regular Season Schedule

Wow. I didn't know Justin Fields was that big of a draw. -
Buffalo Bills 2025 Regular Season Schedule
Doc Brown replied to Sierra Foothills's topic in The Stadium Wall
Vegas projections are more in vogue now when looking at schedule. Bills have the 5th easiest schedule based on projected over/under win totals. It obviously could be misleading but it takes the off-season into account.
