  1. The padded helmets aren't for protection to be honest. Joe Pa had long championed this idea for years. If players wore padded leather helmets, they'd be less likely to spear people head first. It'd be a fundamental change in the game, or a return to it's roots. At the end of the day I think everyone knows the risks and makes their own choices. This is why they get paid like they do. How many of you people do things that are very dangerous, even life threatening simply because it's fun. More than likely you don't even get paid for it, or maybe YOU pay to take said risk. This is simply a part of life and we should stop feeding into it. Football is dangerous, as are many other things in life. Make the decision that works for you. The sport will continue to make common sense adjustments to minimize the risk. PERIOD.
  2. Only Bills fans would complain about having a pro bowl QB, Said QB was rated in the division behind only the GOAT. But, ya know... Bills Fans.
  3. I was really excited to see JW play last year. I was a fan in college. However, in the limited touches he got, he did not look good. IDK, if you can make a large enough hole or get him outside, he's got the wheels to make something happen, but it just looks like he lacks vision and doesn't hit the hole with any conviction. At this point my hopes for JW have been grounded.I hope he proves me wrong.
  4. Buh Bye, Don't let the door hit ya on the way out.
  5. Your lack of ideas is abundantly clear, as evident by this thread.
  6. Exactly what we did. Let them overpay for an overrated Gilmore, an easily replaceable Woods, and Brown, who clearly overvalued his worth on the market. No, we did exactly what we should have done.
  7. I could not disagree with CB more. A GM's job IS to find good players, diamonds in the rust. There job is to fill out an entire roster. Year in and year out. He should have been laying the foundation for today tomorrow and the foreseeable future. Rebuilding every other year is NOT indicative of having success in spades. Pointing out a handful of successes and saying job well done is ludicrous. Conversely, I don't think pointing out every failure is an entirely fair way to grade him either. You should not get credit for doing what you are supposed to do. He should probably be measured on a scale of the two with more weight or significance given to his failures. It's his job to find good players, that should be the minimum standard, not the cause for praise or celebration. He is not hired to find failures and or mismanage a roster, so his shortcomings should be magnified when they happen. In the end it should have been clear a long time ago that DW brings nothing special to the table. His infighting with Marrone, his awful handling of the Rex situation and the ensuing press conferences that followed. I'd wager there's not another team in the NFL that would want DW as thier GM. Given his time with the team, our track record, and history, I think that says all that needs to be said.
