SCBills

I didn’t think Gabe Davis would end up in KC, but now I’m pretty certain he’ll be there on some 3/30 type nonsense. Chiefs just flexin now. Everyone knew whoever signed Araiza was getting a talented punter and massive headlines. KC enters the chat and kicks the wall in like the Kool Aid guy.

Guarantee you they aren’t paying him much and get a guy who was drafted for a reason. Let’s just take the L on this. Hilariously ridiculous situation all around in every which way imaginable - concluding in the only way it ever would have.. Araiza in KC.

Chiefs saving money by moving off Townsend. Would certainly make sense for them to save money with a guy we drafted while we pay market rate for a top punter.

Im the opposite. I had come to terms with the fact we wouldn’t be the ones who signed him after all the bs that went on… However, Kansas City?… because, of course it’s Kansas City.

Comical. But hey.. certain members of our media and fanbase can give themselves a pat on the back for trying to destroy a young man and then helping our main rival save some money.

Given the fact that Republicans keep running candidates under the MAGA label, including Trump himself, the margins are slim as suburban women aren’t fans of this movement or the man himself. Given that, abortion comes across as the dividing line as the issue that tips the scale towards Democrats in these tight elections. Republicans have to address that, and acknowledge it, if they’re going to keep running Trump/Trump candidates over candidates like Youngkin, Haley, DeSantis etc. As far as immigration goes.. the bipartisan bill was a self inflicted gunshot for R’s, but won’t be fatal… more of a flesh wound that will heal up by the time November rolls around. This issue is synonymous with Joe Biden .. it’s stuck to him politically.

We all know that the Biden’s made money selling political influence. 1). That’s obvious. I mean, seriously, even those who support Joe Biden, that’s obvious, correct? 2). Can that be proven with concrete evidence? Doesn’t seem likely right now. Two things can be true at the moment.

Casuals would freak out. A lot of us would love it, depending on what they send back.

If only there was a way that the GOP could flip this issue on the Dems…

I hear that, and it’s extremely annoying when I meet people down south who have done that.. but most of the people I know leaving NY are conservative. Long Island is pretty much 50/50 with the Irish and Italians voting Republican and Jews/Minorities voting Dem. Everyone I grew up with is Irish or Italian out in the North Shore of Suffolk County.

The frustrating thing is.. aside from 13 seconds.. there's been a valid excuse. -We flat out weren't ready in the AFC CG, and we were so young in this team's evolution that we were fine with it. -Damar Hamlin and injuries (Von, Jones, Allen) tanked us physically and emotionally. It showed against NE. It showed against MIA. It finally caught up to us against a team able to take advantage of it in CIN. -Injuries to Gabe Davis and half of our Defense against KC. However, you can't have an excuse every year. At some point, it's a you issue. And whatever we're doing, has not been working, because when it comes time to step up in the postseason, nobody but Josh Allen consistently does. Whether they get hurt during the year and are out, or severely banged up or just don't rise to the occasion, some introspection needs to be done as to why this keeps occurring.

For me it's a performance issue, if we're being honest. He's not good enough for me to feel like we should deal with any diva attitude. He doesn't take over games like other elite WR1's and he continually disappears in the postseason. I'm completely fine moving off him as long as we invest heavy at WR via the draft and potential value FA's. We need to get younger and cheaper .. and guys who don't show up in the postseason are good places to start.

Leftists give Western Christianity way too much credit. Probably a quarter of American churches have been infiltrated by progressive LGBTQ/DEI apologists. You also have an entire Democrat apparatus down South with Southern Baptist churches. Their organization and political influence in the black community are the only reason Dems can win elections in a state like Georgia. It’s a short term alliance for Dems, but have fun with Islam once they gain a larger foothold in America. Social liberalism will face much more backlash than anything you’ve faced going up against white Christians.. who’s main form of resistance seems to be only taking longer than you’d like to adopt radical leftist positions on abortion and gender constructs.

At this point, New York is going to need to be like Germany with migrants. To hell with the cultural friction that results from this, because the state will simply need people in numbers to replace the population decline. Sad to see. I’m from Long Island, and it’s almost monthly that I see another person I went to high school with moving their family out of New York and to the Carolinas or Florida.

The contract is unmovable because of how the cap hit accelerates though, no? Not because the contract value exceeds his ability.. at least, perception-wise. If we were able to trade him, and his contract, I think there would be teams interested. Not sure what the return would be, but I think he's movable at his cap hits.. just not the way we have it structured.

He's legit. I've watched Georgia quite a bit and he jumps off the screen. Toying with SEC defenders out of the slot. I actually prefer Pearsall, who seems more athletic/explosive, but I'm not sure where people see slot WR's playing in this Offense.. We already have a high potential slot WR for next year in Shakir and Diggs is a guy who we should probably think about transitioning more to the slot as well. IMO, with that knowledge, along with Davis likely leaving in FA, it seems like the Bills should probably be in the market of bringing in multiple outside WR's.

I doubt the Bills do this, but I would love to see them pull a Rousseau/Basham with say.. Franklin/Legette. Then spend the rest of the draft on the defense. Two guys who we might be able to draft lower than usual due to the depth of WR in this class. Helps prepare us for life after Diggs and/or allows us to play Diggs more in the slot with having two talented outside WR's fighting for playing time. We know this Offense can hum with 4 legit WR's. Factor in Kincaid, Knox, Cook and our OL and we could be set for multiple years - at an extremely high level - on that side of the ball.

You have to have a plan in place for the states that allow it to the levels they do.. and won’t have it changed by the election. Look at the special election on Long Island. Dems banked most of their votes prior to Election Day. Republicans waited and then a snow storm hit. Would it have made a difference?.. I don’t know, but I know they didn’t stand a chance given the storm. Arizona had voting machines down on Election Day in heavy R areas this last election. Think of that what you want, but it wouldn’t be such a major issue if half of those people voted early by Mail.. as Arizona allows. Im not a huge fan of it either. Is there fraud? Probably “some”, but what you certainly get are elections in which a vote collecting apparatus wins. Georgia rural & suburban voters typically vote on election day. If something comes up that day … oh well. Dems have souls to the polls, which (aside from providing rides and legit day of/early voting measures) gathers Mail-in ballots from black folks, typically black women, who make their family .. who otherwise might not vote, all fill in their ballots as they wish, and then turn them over to ballot collectors, who drop them off at polling/ballot locations. And that’s Georgia.. imagine what goes on in other states with more expansive Mail in voting laws. Have to win elections to change the rules. And Donald Trump is not serious, or is incapable, of doing what is required on the ground to get that done. I hope it doesn’t matter in the end, but he is putting the entire R party, himself and down ballot, in jeopardy with his constant attacks on mail in voting.

I think the discourse on Gabe makes sense. I definitely do NOT want to sign him to a WR2 contract, because I do not believe he is that.. but, I get why people are sentimental on him. He's a homegrown player. Drafted by the Bills and played all 4 years as a pretty notable player on the team. And while the generations prior have the 4 Super Bowl losses, this era has 13 seconds.. and while that's a memory a lot of us would like to forget, no Bills fan will forget Gabe Davis in that game paired with Josh Allen on the sideline firing up the team. It was an iconic performance, even if it didn't go our way. Gabe is a cultural fit in WNY/Buffalo Bills. Low maintenance, likes to fish and hunt.. has a great personality. He's a guy we all wish would be here long term, unfortunately he's not a WR2 and will likely get WR2 offers that we can't match. But I get why he is probably more of a gut punch than Tremaine Edmunds even. And we saw how that worked out...

He’s going to lose because he can’t let go of the fraud angle as why he thinks he lost 2020, so he’s going to perpetuate this nonsense and lose again in 2024 because of it. He knows he needs to embrace mail in voting .. he’s made comments as such.. but he just can’t do it.

I'm open to trading Diggs, eating the cap, and then drafting multiple WR's.. say RD1 and RD3. But trading Diggs and then signing a big name WR makes no cap sense.
