  1. I can’t really dispute any of that - I’m just going by my own memory. I remember thinking he would have been a fun pick, and one I would have talked myself into instantly, but risky. It’s hard for me to live in the what ifs. We could have had Rogers, Wilson, etc. We got Allen ultimately. All I think about now is him improving and becoming the best QB he can be, which I think can still be stellar. And I love the guy. He just seems like he was born to be a Bill. Your memory of it is probably more accurate, though. Interesting about Whaley. I was kind of a Whaley fan, but in hindsight, he was pretty all over the place strategy-wise.
  2. The way I always look at it, it wasn’t even a thought in our minds on that draft day. There are always the guys who say “he was my pick!”, and I’m sure a small few are telling the truth, but leading up to the draft, other QBs were being talked about more. Mahomes was seen almost like Maybin- not a ton of experience, but flew up the boards late. Some thought he’d drop to the 2nd or even 3rd. Had we picked him early, it’s more likely that the overall sentiment here would have been negative, at least initially. A lot of QBs would have gone higher with hindsight. Or lower.
  3. I’m cracking up. How can that not be interference?
  4. Gilmore interfered. “Tight coverage” - he was there too early.
  5. Ha! This is the end. I’m calling it. 10:29 on a Thursday.
  6. It’ll be fun to watch Jonathan Kraft fail in the enormity of the shadow left by his father, withering in the pathetic misery of an unfulfilled life. I’d bet no one can tell that my team has lost to the Pats for 20 years.
  7. That’s what makes it so wonderful. Every Pats fan gets that. This team is starting to look a lot more human to me.
  8. Patriots hate might be the purest thing I have in this life. Though love for my children is close.
  9. I love that Pats fans are right now cursing the Giants the way Seinfeld did Neuman.
  10. I enjoy listening to Aikman. There. I said it.
  11. The Pats are winning, will win a lot, and could win the Super Bowl. But Brady is what made them scary, and they’re not scary anymore. They’re just one of many teams we’ve seen over the years who were able to put together a great D for awhile. Hey, it’s something.
  12. Well, of course it is. I’m glad we have this one settled.
  13. I agreed the replay was inconclusive. Had it been called the other way, they still wouldn’t have overturned it.,.
  14. If I was a Pats fan, I’d probably be thinking this is the easiest Lombardi yet. But they’re also relying on a 42 year old. So a lot can change.
  15. You know, it's not that I don't love Tre White....
  16. To paraphrase a famous Bills coach, 4-1, baby! Where else would you rather be! I love it. I almost love that we came up short against the Pats - I'm sure they're in a mode of wrapping up the division now. But we'll be nipping at those entitled heels all season, and that game at Gillette is gonna mean something. The division is still up for grabs. We have to win those games that we should win, and I think we will. This is such a different team from what we're used to. If Allen can tighten it up just a bit, and get that deep ball going, the sky is the limit. We're earned this!
  17. There is something satisfying about seeing ex-Patriots do dumb things.
  18. Let's face it. It's fun just to say DUUUKE!!!
  19. It’s all happening...
