  1. It's more likely that you'll get a fans "pay him" chant going than him being booed.
  2. I don't even know if the calculation if the yearly money businesses and people saved from the 2017 TCJA Trump passed makes up for the money the taxpayers are now going to lose from these asinine tariffs. It's like losing 30 pounds and then eating 3 gallons of melting ice cream a day for a month.
  3. Leftists are idiots when it comes to the economy. Lower corporate tax rates, lower income tax rates, deregulation, securing the border, and no tariffs on imports has always led to a booming economy.
  4. Amazing physical talent but injuries along with some mental problems made trading up for him. His career in a nutshell.
  5. Another thing is we'd never have had the number one pick to draft Bruce Smith (also possibly not trading for Bennett) if we drafted Marino in '83. It's why takes like Marino would've won the Super Bowl with the Bills 90's roster is fruitless to debate.
  6. It's frustrating although we thought that with LB too and we ended up starting Bernard. I don't know if they have a veteran fall back plan (Samuel Jr., Gilmore, Douglas) or they believe in Ingram's development way more than they let on (doubtful). I think in that scenario Beane would find a trading partner in the 2nd round to go up and select their DT.
  7. For my own entertainment, I want the Bills to announce that they're bringing back the red helmets for one game. And then it's announced several days before the game we see them in the drought era 2000's arena league jerseys.
  8. With Samuel, Coleman, Palmer, Shakir, and Shenault (mostly kick return specialist) on the roster we might not see a WR drafted until day 3. All are different WR's skill wise with the only thing lacking is a true burner that can take a top off the defense. Unless a true deep threat falls to us. I'm guessing Hamler, Virgil, Shavers, and a day 3 pick are on the practice squad and we roll with what we have.
  9. To me his scouting report looks like if Gabe Davis and Keon Coleman had a baby.
  10. So much for the Velveeta cheese mini rye bread pizza appetizer recipe I was about to share. Your guys loss.
  11. One other thing that I think puts Kelly in the teens of all time greats is the innovation of the K-gun. The no huddle offense wasn't just for end of half/end of game situations anymore. They played more spread than any team in the league at the time too (I believe) with usually three WR's, McKeller/Metzelaars, and Thurman. It's a high risk proposition because you risk taking a quick three and out and risk wearing your defense out. The reward was it exploited defensive mismatches and forced the defense into more vanilla play calls. It's difficult to maintain that kind of tempo throughout a game especially when you're calling your own plays. Kelly did a good job of mixing up the run, screen passes, and regular passes to matriculate the ball down the field while wearing defenses out. I thought his accuracy is a little better than Allen's and his deep ball was too. I think Allen will pass him in the next couple of years but I'm not ready to say he's better yet.
  12. I think he'd be more highly regarded if he didn't got to the USFL after college. Three years of NFL experience in a less banged up body would've definitely added to the resume and maybe he could've met that elite status earlier than '90.
  13. The "frequent winning of golf tournaments" in the summary was pretty amusing because doctors will usually write anything memorable you say in the summary during a typical physical. Last year I was pissed off that the Bills Jets game got moved to the 4:25pm time slot because it meant I'll miss my daily 5:00 nap given I only get four to five hours sleep a night at best and I conveyed that to the doctor that week at my physical. He wrote, "Inadequate sleep especially on certain Sunday's during football season."
  14. Reminds me of a slightly taller Hollywood Brown. Could help take the top off a defense.
  15. Isaiah Bond. We haven't won the Super Bowl drafting choir boys so let's go in a completely different direction. Great start with signing two guys juicing in free agency.
  16. With the 55th pick in the draft the Chargers select Darius Alexander, DT, Toledo With Poona Ford leaving we need to sure up the interior of our D Line. Alexander has shown on tape that he can destroy blocks to generate great inside pressure. His great size and length should translate well to the NFL. The pissed off Bills fans are on the clock.
  17. I'm hoping the Browns and Giants don't draft a QB with their 1st round picks. Patriots don't get Hunter or Carter. Teams are more likely to trade their 2nd round pick to us and take a QB at 30.
  18. It would be kind of crazy if they both won it the same year. A parade in both February and June of 2026 sounds like a lot of fun.
  19. Nothing gets by you Doc.
  20. Love the optimism as both a Bills and Sabres fan.
  21. All true except the idea that Chinese workers will rise up against the CCP is laughable. You've got to go all the way back to Nixon but the Clinton Administration certainly exasperated the problems getting into bed economically with a Communist party. Also, when is our next election? When's China's? You see the problem with that I hope. You're way too cynical and accurate. We couldn't even get anywhere one entitlement reform as is a losing issue (see Paul Ryan) so don't expect Congress to ever actually work on reducing the deficit. Every American should just send the government a $1200 check if it means eliminating the tariffs. At least then small businesses won't be destroyed.
  22. Overspending in free agency has a terrible track record. Extending good players you drafted on team friendly deal a year before they hit free agency has a much better track record. Benford, Shakir, and Rousseau could've been one of those overpaid free agents next year so extending them now giving them financial security entering next season is good business. I wasn't a huge fan of the Bernard re-signing but who am I to question McBeane. The main criticism of Beane is his inability to draft true game wrecker elite playoffs in the draft besides Allen. However, besides Metcalf, there just wasn't a realistic opportunity to get one of those guys this free agent cycle. Need to nail the draft.
  23. NBC didn't even bother broadcasting the game in the WNY area because they knew everyone would be there.
  24. If we get into a tariff war with China even under the most well thought out and targeted plan we'll still pry lose. I don't see his tariff policy so far as well thought out and strategic. China can inflict economic pain on their citizens with less repercussions than we can because it's a communist country. You're going to hear sob stories about how these China tariffs destroyed small businesses in the US within the next few weeks. Trump knows this and it's why he backed off the tariffs that would've made our technology gadgets we all enjoy more expensive. I'd love to see where the money saved from DOGE actually goes.
