The Next Pandemic: SARS-CoV-2/COVID-19
Doc Brown replied to Hedge's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
It's called venting. We're all a little frustrated that our way of life has been impacted (although this mask thing/social distancing has really improved my overall health this winter). I do feel bad for the small business owners and high school seniors most of all. However, it's important to keep it in perspective. My uncle is 92 years old and said he'd trade this year for any year during the Great Depression and WWII. This virus spares the young and medical advancements have made it possible to have vaccines ready at record pace. To quote Jurrassic Park, "It could've been worse John. A lost worse." -
Probably this. The drought was rough.

There has to be a good nickname for these two. Anybody? The Bash Brothers. Something like that.

I'd add starting RT, LB, and RG to that list. Now we just need CB2 and feel free to draft BPA.

Boring.

What Team Do FA's Not Want to Go To ?
Doc Brown replied to T master's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Any rust belt city is probably going to be less desirable unless you field a consistent winning product. Buffalo, Cleveland, Detroit, and Cincinnati could pry rotate the last 30 years as the least desirable FA destination. -
I absolutely HATE our team’s focus on Special Teams
Doc Brown replied to FireChans's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
A weird thing to be mad at as a lot of teams carry three RB's with the 3rd strength guy being a Special Teams Ace. I was more ticked off when we carried two kickers because Carpenter couldn't kick the ball far enough. BTW....what unit was on the field when the two most heartbreaking plays in Bills history occurred? -
I chuckled.....

Wants that Diggs nameplate change.

We're not running a charity. LOL. He's a clear upgrade at backup though.
-
Too good of a team not to have a capable backup given Allen's playing style.
-
$11 million guaranteed is a lot for a 1B (at best) RB coming off a down year.

Ertz is only 30. -

This is somewhere in between JJ Watt and Greg Olsen in terms of anticipation and quality of veteran coveted. -
At the end of the day it's still a hard cap even though there's many ways to manipulate it as the Saints are proving. The trick seems to me is to obviously find your franchise quarterback and instill a solid culture and environment where players want to be there. Then you can sign your own free agents at discounts, ask veterans to pay cuts/contract restructures, attract free agents that may value winning if it means taking a tad less money, and in your case (and hopefully ours) sign a QB that still gets his but is willing to take a little less to keep as much of the team together in order to continue to compete for a Super Bowl every year. The Seahawks, Packers, and Steelers haven't made a Super Bowl since their QB's got paid handsomely despite remaining elite at that position. Even in those circumstances you still have to draft well and develop. The Patriots stopped doing that a couple years before Brady left them because he didn't have any weapons even though they were paying Brady illegally under the table in order for him to take a lower salary. You also have to maximize the parts of the organization that isn't restricted by cap space. Everything from paying premium coaches, GM's, coordinators, and assistant coaches decent salaries to building and maintaining state of the art facilities.

Why not offer him a billion? He pry wouldn't have turned it down.

There was another Bills WR that came over here in his mid 30's that helped take this team to the Super Bowl with a late career resurgence. Can Sanders wear number 80 since 17 is taken up?
-
The Jets making two AFC Championship games with Sanchez comes to mind.

Watch New England trade a 1st for him. -
Ertz Discussing Contract with Buffalo?
Doc Brown replied to billsfan905's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
NY Giants beat writer for @thebrawlnetwork. Look out Schefter. -
Pats apparently in on Fournette and Carson
Doc Brown replied to Alphadawg7's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Something tells me they don't plan on using 10 personnel a lot this year. -
Patriots add "stud" WR Kenny Bourne [edited title]
Doc Brown replied to DJB's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
They lost Fitz which was QB for half their wins (I'm including the Raiders game). They also got to play the Bengals and Jaguars while we played the Steelers and Titans. Winning games with def and ST TD's wasn't sustainable down the stretch. They're not close to us talent wise right now but if Watson goes there it's a game changer. -
Put a random FA in a random place
