  1. The Jills shouldn't come back unless they can scout for talent outside of Buffalo. You don't realize how little the scenery in that town is until you've lived in south Florida, west coast, NY, et al. Most Buffalo girls are busted
  2. I hate to be the guy who takes a big steaming pile on your theory that if you can't judge QB talent (scouting is a crap shoot, Jerry Rice and Emmit Smith and Thurman Thomas were toooooooo slow for the game according to everyone and their mothers) you aren't a football guy "factoid" there, Cliff Clavin: Bill Walsh said Rick Meier was the 2nd coming of Joe Montana. Kinda like when he said Trent Edwards was good. So either Super Bowl winning Coach Bill Walsh isn't a football guy, or some random guy behind a keyboard, who's never run a team, scouted or coached or played in the NFL isn't the football guy. You tell me, Cliff
  3. Could you imagine someone giving Tom the business, like Marty Lyons did to Jimbo? Lmao. I don't think you can even sneeze at Brady without a 15 yarder. Hell, I'm surprised they don't eject the player that sacks him, lol. Hyperbole aside, draft Brady and give him a fire to burn on like he's had for 16 years and we'd be the best team, the greatest, believe me.
  4. Dude, no way. Jim Kelly would eat defenses for breakfast in today's NFL. He was a prolific passer, lest ye forget. Hell man, Marino would hit 6000 yards lol. But for real, he played in an era before the Ty Law rule, and the passing game exploded ever since. Keep Kelly healthy and upright and he'd torch everyone
  5. They draft bad QBs all the time, like Ryan Mallet. They aren't immune to the bad personnel decisions bug, they're just lucky af to have the best antidote to it aka Brady.
  6. Yeah man sunshine is horrible, I wish we had 300 cloudy days and 6 months of freezing temps instead of sunshine and hot women
  7. People seem to be hung up on the price for Watkins; which would make sense if Whaley had foresight. Can't fault him in the injuries. What if we stayed and drafted OBD and it was the same situation or he just didn't pan out? People would complain he didn't trade up for Watkins or didn't trade down. Whaley is in a lose-lose in public court for no reason
  8. I don't see them moving, but I also don't see a new stadium; at least not downtown. The most likely scenario is a complete reno at the Ralph. However, the OP is fully correct about the personal finances of WNYers. WNY is a wholly depressed economic area, akin to Cleveland but nowhere near as bad as Detroit. There just isn't many ways to make real money in Buffalo, and as such there isn't a lot of disposable income. How many people are going to buy PSLs? Not many. On top of tickets more than double the price. It's just not in the cards for Buffalo to get a new stadium. And as time passes the next generation is moving in and they are more against publicly funding a billionaire's play palace. In 2024 there will be very little support for a stadium using public funds; not to mention the downstaters not wanting to help fund a Buffalo-based stadium, and NYC wears the pants. Erie County, with maybe 20% from NYS and the NFLs grant program, will go in with the Pegula's on a new no frills stadium near the Ralph or a full on reno. Buffalo is never getting a new state of the art stadium. Ever.
  9. Wow really? You don't think it has anything to do with..oh idk...money? If the league sells more jerseys, they make more money. I thought that was an easy one to figure out, but hey there are people who still think Trump is going to help them, so....
