  1. There is not many fan bases that could go through what we have. We were irrelevant so long when I told people here in Knoxville years ago I was a Buffalo Bills fan they thought it was a college team. I’d correct them about the Bulls and they’d say never heard of them. They know who we are now though.
  2. What a list. Makes me even sadder thinking of how high my hopes were for Losman, edwards and I was even really hoping Thad would be something. I agree with @forebodingas well I was a big Aaron brooks fan and wished we had someone like him 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️
  3. I don’t recall seeing many threads for him last season. Seems to be a bunch popping up for this preseason. Makes sense since he’s performing well. It has the look he’s becoming a fan favorite ( besides the few who want him traded to Green Bay for a late round pick)
  4. I’m getting a scary sense Kumerow is our new guy on here, Dukes time is almost over and it seems Jake may be taking his place. (I kid I kid)
  5. I don’t think they’ll leave, but Oakland, San Diego, and even St. Louis played hardball over funding the stadium and they left. Our situation is different luckily. But when you’re talking big money nothing is a given. Ummmm isn’t MetLife fully funded by the Jets and Giants? Pretty sure they built that with zero cost to tax payers. I don’t know about maintenance or upkeep or whatever as far as tax dollars but the stadium was fully privately funded.
  6. All I can say is we are gonna have a blast fighting over which defensive ends make the team. Gotta be the funnest battle on the team and sooooo much talent
  7. If Allen signed today Lamar and Baker would both get more. Whatever order they go in will be who gets the most guaranteed more than likely. I would hate to be Allen and make less than Baker. It’s bad enough Baker already makes more being drafted higher and having ten million commercials
  8. As far as Allen is concerned it’s not smart to sign before Lamar and Baker. Someone is always going to trump someone on these contracts and I’m sure each guy wants the most possible guaranteed
  9. My last thing on this subject, all this hosting a Super Bowl stuff is a terrible idea. Have we seen what it takes to host a Super Bowl? In some cases it costs the city money to do it. And there are sooooooo many requirements. Older article but still very valid. https://globalsportmatters.com/business/2019/01/31/so-you-want-to-host-a-super-bowl-itll-cost-ya/
  10. I agree, but other teams advantages are waaaaaaaay better. I seen some will mess with audibles, some maybe send the receiver on the wrong route or maybe it’s just the play art on it. Not 100% positive I haven’t looked too much into it yet
  11. My nephew was explaining one of the new features in the game a couple weeks ago. The home field advantage thing. Yeah ours is garbage and one of the worst. I think it has to do with kicking field goals.
  12. I’m not singling anyone out but I find some of the comments on this a little crazy. I left New York roughly 10 years ago, one of the biggest reasons was cost of living and the horrible TAXES. I get the proposal seems over the top but is this really what people want to take a stand on when it comes to their taxes? So much of that money literally goes to NYC and in the 700 politicians pockets in Albany. You can almost guarantee already that if the Pegulas are asking 1.5 billion the state is trying to figure out how to tax you for 2 billion. I get the animosity about leveraging and using Austin as a spot to move but it’s just too early to take any of this too serious.
  13. I think fantasy football actually plays into some people liking Hurts. But it’s not a given he can even beat out Flacco to start the year.
  14. New York is such a crooked and shady state.. I need more than this one article to get worried. I think it’s extremely smart to begin negotiations this way. I haven’t browsed too many numbers and I’m certainly not a know it all about this stuff but I’d like to think if they can get 500-600 million funded the stadium will be a go and they can make it work. You got to make the threats and show other cities will pony up though. It’s the price you gotta pay to be small market and have a team.
  15. I think it’s something a lot of guys keep private. Allen is different, because he had serious issues, and people didn’t think those would change. So Palmer gets some attention for the work they do together. Outside us Bills fans most people never hear of the offseason work with Palmer. I would be willing to bet that almost every quarterback in the league has things setup for the offseason and personal trainers and coaches. We don’t hear a lot about it cause….. Does anybody care who Gardner Minshew is training with?
  16. You guys.. I really do feel for ya some days. Talk about a thankless job.
  17. Wow that’s amazing news. I had no clue Brieda could play special teams. Holy crap we could actually have 3 active running backs on gameday who ALL play and contribute at running back!!!
  18. I expect the offense to click and be effective pretty quickly. My favorite is hearing about some of the D line guys. Epenesa and Obada I’m really cheering for and hope they have breakout seasons. Mixed with the vets and rookies it’s very exciting the potential pass rush we will have
  19. Thank you!!!!!!! This isn’t 5 years ago where we need as many draft picks as possible. We struggled to beat Indy with rivers last thing we want to to help them. The smart move for Indy is probably to target Foles. How fun will that be in the news? Reich, Wentz and Foles again
  20. I figured Allen will get a lower ranking. I can’t argue too much but putting Lamar at 5 is a total joke.
  21. I don’t know this story one bit, but that’s a really classy move by the league to honor him forever. I’m sure that was very special for all who knew him.
