Todays a fun day to be neutral on Trump’s tariffs idea. All weekend we dealt with lib panic. Chuck Schumer’s Super Bowl is ruined!!! Markets are going to tank!!! Fast forward a few hours later… Oh, guess that worked out just fine. ::shrug::

In all seriousness, I don’t think most are against giving actual “aid” to other countries. What we’re against is funding western degeneracy around the globe in the form of progressive pet projects at taxpayer expense.

You’re a lib psyop aren’t you? Posting this take, from that guy, is amazing.

Why should we trust anyone else? Europe relies on us to fund their national security and anyone we don’t do that for allows China to fund projects in their country that make them indebted to the CCP as other powerful countries have been playing footsie with BRICS policy that would destroy the value of our currency. You seem to be arguing for slow decay as opposed to a chaos-induced shakeup that may or may not change America’s standing for better or worse globally.

Im not a huge tariff guy so I don’t care either way. I just think you should probably calm down now.

Market will rebound and Trump got increased Mexican border security and a trade meeting with Rubio & Bessent. Now Canada is stuck in a trade war by themselves. Am I amazed by Trump, no.. but do I think those that spent all weekend crying about this now look dumb? Yes.

Canada gonna go in alone on a trade war now?

Oh no! Don’t alarm the world!! Anything but that!! You mean the world that was on fire during the last administration? The world that slowly has powerful nations slowly aligning against us. Further, they are aligning more and more with China.. Silk Road expansion. BRICS nations broadening. What ever would we do if the USA took steps to be a country with strong borders that manufactures goods and medicine at home. Wont someone think of the war mongerers and globalists!?

Yea, wasn’t a fan of that. The broader point could have been made, but that’s not what he did initially.

The main point is that Democrats f****d up so bad over the past 4 years that Trump can come in and flood the zone, including start tariff wars, and most people are just like “ok, whatever”. Yall can screech about it on social media all you want… its not breaking through. Maybe if it drags out and people really feel it, we’ll see… but right now my view is the prevailing view… meh, whatever. Maybe your party should think about not being a nonsense-obsessed clown factory and we can have a real substance based discussion one day.

Can we all agree that common consensus seems to be that: -We don’t know if “DEI” was responsible for this specific incident. -We do know DEI has been a major issue in the FAA.

I’ll respond… I love what Trump is doing with the border and identity politics. Not sure how the tariffs will work out.. and guess what? I. Don’t. Care. Hes already earned grace from me to do whatever he thinks he needs to do given how he’s taken a flamethrower to people like Brennan, Milley etc and followed through on a national policy and identity policy I voted for him to do. Will the tariffs work? What are they for? Dont know. Don’t care. I trust Trump in economic issues 10x more than the brain dead nonsense we had the past four years. Gonna go ahead and say that my view is probably the view most of the country has given Trumps current approval ratings and how laughable most find the current iteration of the Democrat Party. So yall can fear monger about tariffs and cry all day on X over it… ok, we’ll see how it goes. Whatever.

Good thing it’s not just Bills fans then.. it’s literally 30 other fanbases as well. And I never said I’m “taking my ball and going home”, so I don’t know why my post is quoted for that remark… I just don’t necessarily trust that the league is as truly play-on-the-field based as I thought it was.. Not when one team continually gets so many high leverage calls their way.

My favorite part of all this is seeing liberals root for Trudeau to hurt Americans, while Canadian conservatives root for Trump to hurt Canada.

Burrow, even second half Rivers went off and we needed Josh to put on the cape years ago. Bills Defense is predicated on stopping QB’s/Teams that make mistakes. Not many of them in the playoffs. Bo Nix, Skylar Thompson’s etc., sure.. but there’s a reason we’re 2-0 against Lamar.. ..he’s the only elite QB that makes consistent mistakes in the playoffs and the Ravens as a team, the same

Nick Wright on with Big Cat tried saying Josh would only have 1 Super Bowl trophy if he switched places with Mahomes because Mahomes had bad Defenses during the years until recent. So sad, he has to struggle with only Hill and Kelce. How did he ever manage? I can’t debate this stat listed by the OP. It’s obviously pathetic and insane. It just makes me irrationally angry.

Insanity

Everything always has to be so weird. I don’t want to believe this is anything, but they took days to release her name, scrubbed her accounts and she’s a Biden White House aide. I don’t want to believe it’s anything, so I won’t, but it’s obviously going to drive narrative because nothing can ever just be normal. Im 99.9% sure it’s probably nothing. So why scrub accounts? Waiting days, sure.. the family should be consulted and they finally agreed to release her name. But scrubbing social media.. ok.

This is so good..

I think they’re so intertwined that I’m not sure what the correct answer is. We constantly have issues with being undersized, and that seems to be due to McDermott wanting a gap shooting/penetrating DL, while at the same time wanting to play base Nickel and have undersized linebackers. At some point we have to look at the philosophy as to why this defense A) Deals with so many injuries end of season and B) Gets shredded by QB’s who don’t make mistakes. It all starts with the DL, but the entire Front 7 is built in a way that reflects what McDermott wants. On Offense, we’re lucky to have Josh Allen and Aaron Kromer. With those two, we have far more margin for error on that side of the ball.

Hes been the only piece on that entire defense, let alone defensive line. Getting a guy like him would not only unlock Oliver more, but also allow Rousseau advantageous matchups should we decide to keep him. IMO, adding a guy like him, who would immediately be a locker room fit and fan favorite, not only gives us a guy in his prime that can get us a bucket, but also elevates two other guys on this line. Keep one of our seconds and add a big DT next to Oliver and all of a sudden we turn our constant weakness into a potential game changing strength.

They only do this if they recognize they’re in a multi-year rebuild and Crosby asks them to trade him to a contender. He all but made it clear this is on the table in his interviews as their season ended. If he plays good soldier, it would take someone in their FO recognizing it’s not fair to him to keep him around during a rebuild and also makes sense to gets quality picks that are more in line with their rebuild.

He also plays off Chris Jones. As down as I am on Rousseau as a 20M+ per year player, he’d probably be viewed this way if we had anyone else on the line that played to the level of Jones.

Syracuse Basketball used to help, not so much anymore. Free Agency is always a wild week & March Madness typically starts that week too. Draft in April. Then NBA Playoffs for anyone who cares. Bills will have some random OTA’s in May & June. Then training camp and we’re back. NFL actually does a decent job making itself year round, even if the season is only September - February.

We overrate some guys, a lot. Nobody really references OL in these discussions. We have an elite OL.. had a terrible game against KC. It is what it is. KC has a meh OL, were just fine against us. Taron, Benford and Milano are not those guys. Good players, but not game changers. Maybe Milano comes close if he continues his post-injury trajectory into next year. Fact is, we’ve been great year to year because we have a really good team that never really has a major weakness (unless injuries hit) and is led by the 1/1a best QB in the league. We don’t have a Kelce, we don’t have a Chris Jones, we don’t have a McDuffie and we don’t have a guy that scares teams like Worthy. What we do have are Thuney’s, Humphrey’s, Bolton’s, Chenal’s, Karlaftis, Hopkins types etc.. a ton of guys on that next level of difference maker.. but not the game changing variety. Same as it’s always been. We can get by the Ravens, because Lamar has playoff issues. We don’t have to worry about CIN because they can’t make the playoffs. The game changing player personnel and coaching differences come into play against KC every year when it matters.
