  1. We play the Bears and not the Chargers this year. Correct? This really does suck though that he went to an AFC team. At least he’s not in our division. Can all four AFC West teams go 11-0-6?
  2. Cody Ford will be a week 1 starter and you’re all going to see the Kromer effect in action.
  3. With a whopping 278 yards combined passing yards. Why does our defense always struggle against the run mid-season?
  4. Romo was throwing to Beasley his first three years but it's a fair comparison. I think he's good enough where with the right QB he could have a Wes Welker type career. Or he could re-sign with the Jets.
  5. He's a younger version of Cole Beasley and a little quicker (ran a 4.44 second 40 yard dash). Reliable slot target who can find spots in a zone and convert 3rd downs for you. Also, can be our answer as a returner. I just wish his price tag was lower because he'd be a great signing.
  6. Didn’t he drop 30 pounds for no reason last offseason. Makes you wonder if he’d have had a better year at a higher weight.
  7. Based off what?
  8. What did Wentz do to piss off Irsay and Ballard that much? They’re not going to find an upgrade this year.
  9. Dockery and Walker in 2007 have to take the cake but it's pry is a close second. Beane did well in 2019 and 2020 free agency in the place it mattered most in helping Josh Allen develop (Brown, Beasley, Morse, D. Williams) but the defensive signings weren't too impressive (Butler, Jefferson, Addison, Norman). I don't know. I guess I don't have as much faith in Beane in making the right free agent moves compared to most Bills fans.
  10. The Rams haven't had a first round pick since 2016 and won't have one until 2024. They just won the Super Bowl albeit they're pry an anomaly because of how well they drafted in the later rounds. Elway isn't the GM but is the root cause of needing to make this trade. They have a strong roster on both sides of the ball and are a legitimate contender for at least the next couple of years. I'd argue they're pry the third or fourth best team in the AFC right now. This trade was a huge win for the Broncos unless Wilson significantly loses mobility as he gets up there in age.
  11. I want the better offenses later than in the year when T White is 100%.
  12. For a 2nd. Yes. I don’t think even think you could make that trade on Madden though. A 4th at best. Your fault for raising a Seahawks fan. That’s why MCM was more painful than 13 seconds.
  13. A little more aggressive maybe but not to the point where you significantly mortgage the future. You need a great roster, luck, a coach willing to squib kick it, and a good year health wise to win the Super Bowl. Putting yourself in the playoffs most years gives you the best chance.
  14. We went from 13 seconds to host an AFC Championship game to talking about fricken comp picks within two months. I hate comp picks because it rewards teams for letting players walk. It's never made sense to me in a league where they have a hard salary cap with even the cheapest owners having to adhere to the minimum salary cap spending.
  15. Good catch. I re-watched it with NFL gamepass and they did squib it with 15 seconds left and the Rams returner took it from the 10 to the 25 taking five seconds off the clock. A very similar scenario with the only difference being that the Rams had zero timeouts left while the Chiefs had three so that could've led McDermott to doing something different. It's frustrating watching that back how simple it was to execute. McDermott choked in the most crucial of moments and only a Super Bowl victory will atone for that. If not the "13 seconds" will haunt him until his last breath. Oh well. Let's get that fast guy at #25.
  16. This will inspire many NFL players to have a friend make their bets for them. This problem isn’t going away with more states legalizing gambling and the NFL getting in bed with these companies. The fall of Rome is upon us. Apples and oranges comparison. Those crimes don’t have the potential to impact the actual games on the field like gambling does.
  17. Reminds me more of ‘08 when I swore off gas guzzlers for good.
  18. Should've built a dome instead of their current mud pit.
  19. I can deal with Mahomes, Hill, and Kelce getting their team into field goal range in two plays in 11 seconds with three time outs. Our defense couldn't cover a stationary wall with paint at that point. What's unacceptable to me is a communication error by our coaching staff on the kickoff. It's inexcusable and Heath Farwell was the fall guy.
  20. It will eventually leak out what happened. A "lack of execution that starts with me" is all you're going to get from McDermott at this point though.
  21. Have you seen our grain elevators? There's been enough economic studies over the years in various cities to show building a new stadium has little impact on the economic development around it. Especially an NFL stadium.
  22. That's pry what was called. Their returner is not going to fair catch it at the five yard line or take the chance of it bouncing through the end zone. We have one of the best special teams coverage units in the NFL and have used that kick effectively throughout the season. Bass is excellent at executing them. The problem with the squib kick is it can take a funny bounce, it can hit one of their blockers at like the 40 where they can just fall on it, and the lack of hang time on the ball gives our coverage unit less time to get down the field increasing the chances of a long kick return.
  23. An onside kick would've pry worked. Nobody would've expected that.
  24. If that did happen McDermott would've said it was my call to kick deep at the after game press conference. There's been nothing in the last five years that makes me believe McDermott is a liar. Communication broke down at the most crucial time and McDermott didn't want to throw anyone under the bus. I don't know how he could've handled it any differently without damaging his in house reputation as frustrating as it is for Bills fans.
  25. Not so far with the Bills but they were there when the Panthers drafted Star in the first round. They then overpaid for him to come here to be a run stuffer. I wouldn't be surprised if Davis is the pick.
