  1. NFL schedule was released in 2023 on Thursday May 11th, so if they stick with the 2nd Thursday of May it would be the 9th this year as Gregg said ^ Typically a few big games drop in the weeks leading up, many times the international opponents are known prior. The week of the leaks will come out. I usually cover the schedule to an unhealthy extent (lol hey its my version of mock draft) on what to expect with a decent hit rate on games times etc.. This was my early thread back in February:
  2. People forget with the cap going up so much and JJ hitting his prime the numbers may seem super high but realistically its just the direction the market is heading. Diggs has been top 3 in WR contract for a few years now, price of doing business.
  3. Bills 2 Free Agency 0 But we overall fail to win the offseason continuing our championship offseason drought that extends since back to back titles in 2015/16.
  4. Unfortunately this will be the reality. Virtually every other new stadium this has been the result that seniority and longevity go out the window. The teams view is well you have seats in the new stadium so be happy regardless of the people you knew, where you were sitting, or a host of other legit issues STH bring up.
  5. It is a powerful tool for players as it ratchets the pressure on the team big time and you know the fans will not be happy either. With that said it usually is not great when guys request out and it typically is the crack that causes movement down the road even if it takes a few years.
  6. lol you somehow made that sound even worse then I could even imagine haha
  7. They were the last NFL franchise to not have an indoor training facility which they literally are building now. Carson Palmer is among the loudest voices that have said they will waste Joe Burrow because they are so cheap and never maximize what they have with him. The bengals are one of the few remaining franchises where the team is the sole revenue generator for the owners.
  8. Well 3 HOFs who were at the very tail end vs some very good important players who were needing replacement and helps open the Bills cap for the long term future. The HOFs were decidedly worse because it was pretty callous how it went down regardless of all of them wanting to still play. Love the guys who we just cut but the accomplishments are vastly different here and the window is still very open with Josh. When Reed, Thomas, & Bruce left it was the last gasp of the great decade + of Bills football so it was a very empty feeling in many respects. Yesterday was expected by comparison, it just finally happen with Morse being the only maybe surprise, but I thought he was toast given his cap, age, and concussion issues. The rest Poyer Hyde White made zero sense to keep outside of sentimentality. Neal is replaceable tenfold and Hardy never made the impact you hoped and also can be replaced cheaper. Tre is really the only one I am truly sadden over just because he was tracking for a HOF caliber career and playing with Josh through this next group/window and he/we got robbed to see that which really sucked because he was such a great and fun player who loved Buffalo big time.
  9. Don't really have space at CB and rather be younger: Douglas Benford T Johnson NCB Elam 4th CB So he would be 4th at best and your not touching Douglas/Benford/Johnson as all three graded out extremely high in coverage
  10. I have looked at it and the last decade and half they have been the preferred divisional opponent to open with if the NFL decides we play in division to start. Recently Buffalo has played NY to open in 17, 19, 20, and 23. I actually think we open at home vs NE finally as Buffalo hasn't done that since 2013 and I think the NFL saves NYJ for later in season with Rodgers back healthy.
  11. Athletes will use anything and I mean anything for motivation. Going into a game as big as the SB you don't say a word even if you mean it in the context he did. The damn Chiefs apparently for two years now keep saying no one believed in them... and they won the SB both times. Takes one sentence to start a fire with these guys. In fairness the drafts actually were a pretty hilarious listen
  12. Matchup wise most years the wrong team played the NFC team and I think you saw that a lot. CLE was designed to take on a WSH or NYG personnel wise. HOU against SF would've been really fun given their skill guys. The NFC also won quite a few at the buzzer during that time. I doubt you ever see a Conference run that long without a loss again in the SB.
  13. Reid is the top active coach and has a real argument for #1. He has had two runs of long term success in two different markets which only Shula can match to that level. BB with Brady has the best run in one time, but the arguments that Brady propped him up a bit feel more valid given the last few years, his record without Brady being sub .500, and his overall pool of coaches not being very stellar. The best credit BB has outside of NE is actually SB25 with what he did and his time with Parcells in NY both times.
  14. Agreed. I remember the end of Kelly and crew like 95-96 timeframe and a touch of the final SB, mostly my dad sitting in a chair not saying anything. The Flutie days were fun and it was such a big deal at the time between him and RJ that seemed to encompass everything. I watched all the Bills VHS tapes my grandfather had religiously kinda the same dreaming of what it would be like to be good. It is funny because through the Bledsoe time the Bills were still a pretty respected org and bringing Tom Donahoe in at the time was a well received move (just went poorly wrong). Once the 04' season though went curtains that was when it started to truly feel like "ok this isn't going well anymore and they really are a mess" just didn't realize it would end up taking that long. I am not sure a single loss has had such a dynamic domino effect as the one to PIT did for Buffalo the subsequent moves that came in following years.
