1994 - Kelly & Reed vs Favre & Sharpe - NFL Throwback
BigDingus replied to BigDingus's topic in The Stadium Wall
No, I meant that we all consider Allen such an amazing player, that most Bills fans already rank him above Kelly as the best Bills QB ever. Not only that, I've seen fans slowly push Kelly further & further down the list of best Bills players of all time (myself included). The way people talk about him is if he was just a solid QB that got the ball to the better players around him, but watching him again reminded me that simply isn't true. He had a ton of talent, only in different ways to modern QBs. I remember many commentators & sports talk shows calling Kelly a LB that played QB due to how tough he was, but you hear the same thing today regarding Allen. Difference is when they say it about Allen, they mean he's built like a truck & runs like one too. Sorry if my wording was confusing. -
Wait, the CFL merged with another US league? Or they just opened some expansion US teams? Either way, I had no idea! That's pretty cool, thanks for the heads up

Was going through old game footage & figured I'd post this one. Allen is such a great & unique talent that it's almost easy to let hyperbole take over & downplay how great Kelly was. His rhythm, the timing, the way he throws, and just how quick he was is a thing of beauty to watch. He escapes pressure not with his feet, but by being so quick to get the ball out of his hands (much like Brady). He knows when & where guys are going to be, then just as he hits the final step of his drop, the ball is released. If not, he takes a few steps in one direction & then lets it rip. Can't forget Reed either. He was all over the field making plays. A true WR1 that could out-physical anyone. Him & Kelly out-dueled Favre & Sharpe, and I'm glad I stumbled across this game. Also, I don't see how anyone can think these unis weren't beautiful! Hard to not feel nostalgic seeing that field, the red endzones, the red helmets + blue jerseys, man... it's criminal we don't use these as throwbacks. Anyway, hope someone out there enjoys as much as I did!

They should merge with the CFL & attract a whole new audience. Bet that would increase curiosity as well. Obviously, the CFL has a much longer history, so they'd have to adapt similar rules, but it would be a neat way to tie the 2 countries together (especially at a time where our closest ally has somehow been labeled an adversary).

Man, wish NFL could go back & revitalize a lot of these older games. I know it's not as simple as old school movies on film, but with the advancement of AI tech, maybe one day we can get AI upscaling & remastering to HD & clean things up.

My man! Glad to see more Ruben Brown respect!

So what's the difference between AFL MVP & AFL Player of the Year? I see that Cookie Gilchrist was the AFL MVP while Jack Kemp was the AFL Player of the Year & was kinda confused. Also didn't know they had AFL All-Pros & All Stars (I guess like Pro Bowlers). That's cool. My personal top 15: 1. Bruce Smith 2. OJ Simpson 3. Thurman Thomas 4. Josh Allen 5. Jim Kelly 6. Andre Reed 7. Joe DeLamielleure 8. Billy Shaw 9. Steve Tasker 10. Fred Smerlas 11. Cornelius Bennett 12. Kyle Williams 13. Darryl Talley 14. Eric Moulds 15. Ruben Brown (yeah, I said it!) I'm only confident in my top 6 though, the rest I bounce around (especially those I've only seen in replays & sports docs).

Yeah.... I can definitely be bought, but not for $500 😆 I need that extra money though, so offer me $5,000, then MAYBE I'd take that. Sorry, economy is rough right now!

Exactly. Pretty sure last year he told me Curtis Samuel would have a better season than Stefon Diggs... I said no way that's happening unless Diggs gets injured, but even with an injury, he STILL had a better season 😂 Maybe it was someone else, but I'm almost certain it was him arguing with me.

Why Terron Armstead retired (His knee hurt) (Clickbait Article)

I would've preferred the classic "Vague Title" myself 😉 -
THANK YOU. I don't care what position you play, if you are a bigger part of your team's success & have more impact on the field, you should be paid accordingly. As much as people like Groot, I cannot in good conscience say he did more than James Cook... yet we were paying him $13 million last year, right around what Cook wants now, then extended him to $20 million a year. And which side of the ball has everyone complained about not showing up in the playoffs last year? Oh right, the side we rewarded with extensions & bigger contracts. But the side that put up the most points in franchise history, fortified by a great run game for the first time in Allen's career, and the player who everyone said should've gotten the ball more in the KC playoff game... that's the guy who we shouldn't pay simply because he's a RB? Makes no sense.

Stadium Construction Discussion (No PSL/Seat selection posts)
BigDingus replied to JÂy RÛßeÒ's topic in The Stadium Wall
Uh... no. That makes no sense. There isn't a single default design for a stadium. They can pick & chose what to prioritize. That's like saying all $500k houses in the same area are the exact same square footage, design, layout & size of land. Whether it's in WNY or Florida, you CHOOSE what you want to spend the money on. You also choose WHEN to spend the money, and they waited so long that they're paying more than Jerry World for significantly less.
