Success

I agree w/ that. I didn't realize the context of what I was replying to. Nix is fun to watch. Kind of reminds me of Pennington. But he hasn't proven himself to be anywhere too close to Allen or Mahomes. I'd be happy if I was a Denver fan, but it remains to be seen how much he is able to really put a team on his back.

So, he finally had the same circumstances (roughly) Allen has had most of his career. I love Mahomes game - he's great. I don't & never have thought he's better than Allen.

I would have loved peak Vea. But he'll be 32 next year.

I was very bullish on Carter before he got hurt his rookie season. He was pretty disruptive, and seemed to be in the backfield a lot.

What a fantastic write-up. I'm still on break, really. I've posted here a few times & have checked a few stories, but I'm having a challenging time getting back into the football mindset. Still feels like the season is coming up too fast. It can take a toll, being a Bills fan.

The Pats are pretty close to us now. I'm still not buying too much into Maye - I think he'll be a solid long-term starter, but nothing about his play has indicated that he'll be great or top tier. Still, they've done a great job of building a team around him. He has the best WR corps in the division, and a top defense. I think the division winner will come down to who can stay healthier (they had crazy good injury luck last year).

That is some seriously great news.

I'll never pile on the Jets, at least until they start to win a lot and bug me. I relate too much to the plight of that fanbase. Being a Jets fan ain't easy right now.

It's just a uniform. The reaction online from Bills fans & other fanbases is insanely over the top. I think they look alright. Not sure what the big deal is - feels more like offseason boredom.

This is a precious memory for me. Me & my son got to enjoy this together at a local place - just high fiving the whole time. Best we felt together during the drought.

Man, has this ranking upset some of the usual suspects. Will people ever realize that football is a team game? If Brady had played for the Panthers - how many rings would he have? It's always maddening to me. Always. Josh ain't the reason we haven't made or won the big one.

I feel like I'm about to get downvoted - but did anyone else root for the Pats in 2001 against the Rams? I always pull for the underdog, and I had a soft spot for the Pats back then because I loved Grogan from years before. Our time at the top of the division was over, and the "division rivalry" thing just didn't connect w/ me. I was happy they won. It's not that I expect Pats fans to pull for the Bills to get their 1st like that - but I find their hate toward us and wish that we never get a SB to be odd from a fanbase that has won 6. They've won the lottery of sports - why oppose another team getting a single one? It's pretty petty, imo.

If I was a Pats fan - I'd be alarmed by the playoff run. They basically got a lay-up when it came to opponents on the AFC side, and he played pretty poorly throughout. He holds the ball too long and has a pretty clear turnover issue. His biggest strength is the accurate deep ball, and he's really good at that. That can be a tough skill to maintain. I don't think he's all that. I see more Bledsoe than Brady, if we're comparing him to past Pats QB's. Good arm & will have longevity, but won't be a consistent top 5 QB.

I'll go w/ "comically arrogant" - which describes not only that article, but the vast majority of that fanbase as well. They had a nice year against the easiest schedule in decades, but they'll be back in 2nd for the foreseeable future. Maye is a good QB, but he's really not a great QB yet, and there isn't much indication he'll ascend to that tier.

I've never had an issue w/ putting "parental advisory" stickers on albums. Parents should be informed on artistic content, just like they do for movies.
