Obviously the Bills! But I will also cheer for the Cards and the Rams. I lived in PHX and grew to like the Cards and I live in SoCal now, so I'll go for the Rams. My wife is from Chicago, so the Bears, too.

Definitely bring in Webb. Probable wont use him anyway, but way better than Yates. He made a couple nice plays this preseason. He threw about a 50 yard TD. Three Int's, though.
-
He had the offer and then discussed it with McDermott after the game , into the night and early morning.
Then your response to that other post is confusing. The poster said that the Sammy trade raised his eye brows, etc. in terms of McDermott's decisions. And your response implied that McDermott either didn't know about the trade or was not responsible for it.

Funny, but I seem to remember that Beane came out and said he had the trade offer for Watkins and McDermott didn't even know and he didn't tell him until after the Vikings game was over.
Kind of puts a damper on your McDermott being the bad guy.
As well as those that agree with you.
I guess I missed that. Just to clarify, Beane traded Watkins without McDermott knowing?

Great post.I will go on record and say this. I am not a fan of McDermott and Beane, but I do support them and want them to succeed, for the sake of our Buffalo Bills. With that said, I am nowhere near as high on them as I was when they first got here. McDermott, in my humble opinion, is becoming more and more a control freak who screams, "It's my way or the...actually it's just my way, nothing else." I was shocked to see Pegula give absolute carte blanche to a completely unproven Defensive Coordinator, coming off a few seasons of mediocrity. And I was even more shocked that this first time head coach was allowed to pick his own GM, and not the other way around!! Nonetheless I still supported McD, and as he began a complete housecleaning of the FO, scouting, coaching, I remained optimistic. However, the Sammy trade was the first decision that raised my eyebrows, and tbh, I have been both confused and bewildered with pretty much every move since then. It's as if McDermott is on a crusade(love that word and keep thinking of that picture) to not just rid the team of essentially EVERY Whaley pick, but to show the football world that he and he alone singlehandedly turned this franchise around, from top to bottom. There is a certain air of audaciousness to every move he makes now, and he is making it increasingly harder to both support him and remain optimistic. It's as if he has this Belichick-ean air of cockiness about him, yet he hasn't even won a single game yet. I will go as far as to admit I'm beginning to dislike his attitude, mainly his sureness of himself.
Obviously, if the season comes and we start racking up the W's, I will probably start liking him again. But I guess time will tell...
Just to add. I think the consensus two months ago was that we just had to tweak a few things to make the playoffs, since we've been at .500 for three straight seasons.
Or we go for a tank to get the best possible QB.
But we seem to be doing something else that appears a bit nonsensical and perhaps driven by ego. E.g. getting rid of some young talent and keeping old average or below average guys.
Therefore, it looks like this season lacks the optimism of being close and the honesty of a tank.
I'll go on record and say three years 15 wins with no more than 6 wins in a single season.

Long time no talk guys but I thought I'd drop in cause we play each other week one. Weird year huh? With us both trying to suck and all.
I get what the Jets is doing even if I don't like it. I root for them to win all the time and I can't help it none. But they is playing for their stud QB for years to come. Probably that kid from California and can you imagine the money that kid can make when he wins a bunch of Super Bowls for a legendary team like the Jets?
I don't get what youse is doing though. Your team was bad but not really bad when you had Watkins. Now you have Shady and some other good guys but not great and your Qb is just pretty bad, not really really bad and so you is probably going to win a few games and not get the kid from California. Those new guys you got running things sure dress like nerds but they don't seem so smart like nerds. And plus no way that kid goes to Buffalo anyway seeing he could hold out and go to the Jets like Eli did with the Chargers and Giants. No way. And that's even considering San Diego is beautiful Eli holded out. No way does this kid go to Buffalo or Cleveland. He wants the Jets like Jim Kelly did but things are different now and he will be able to choose.
So who does you guys think you is gonna get for a rookie QB next year? I didn't pay much attention to the guys after our guy. Do they suck a lot or is any of them any good? I feel bad for you guys because I wouldn't mind if you finished second to us every year for the next 20 or so while we dominate. I hate the Patriots and Dolphins much more even though if I go on a trip to Miami I get lots of ladies while I'm there. Trust me I don't do that when I go to the Buffalo games.
So I guess the bottom line is that I will be rooting for the Jets to smack you around the field all day like usual but then end up losing instead. Maybe we'll do that thing we learned from you about not picking up the kickoff in the end zone. It will be a long year but worth it.
P.S. J-E-T-S Jets JEts JETS.
This is like the Sound and the Fury mixed with Of Mice and Men. Love it! Has to be fiction. Has to be.

Real math? It's your math dude.
Assuming your stats are accurate:
If 28% of all Super Bowls have been won by a QB who was a former #1 overall QB pick, then 72% were won by a QB who wasn't a former #1 overall QB pick.
Once again, give me the 72% chance instead of the 28% chance you are claiming exists. Why would you want to have worse odds?
You are trying to make a point by using statistics that show you are exactly wrong.
Hey, they're your numbers dude. I didn't make the claim. You did.
You aren't using the right statistics to make your case - if there is even a case to be made for what you are claiming.
Dave. I hate to stereotype, but...ahh...um...nevermind.

OP, please don't ask. I hate for my home town football fans to show that side of its character. Let's stick to sharing our love for the same football team.

Okay. You also get a
Eloquence. Very nice. Think.

Interesting post. Two almost worthless players (for different reasons) with big contracts. I wonder if Cleveland would even consider this, even though they get the better player (by far). They dealt with Gordon and Manzel, recently. At least Osweiler is guaranteed to be available to play. Who knows with the fat captain!

Sad when a rookie QB with a 50% completion rate, averaging 5.47 YPA with a QB rating of 71 is everyone's savior...just shows how bad Taylor has been
Nobody said savior. In fact, I think Peterman is more along the lines of tank in everyone's minds.

McCoy 6 carries for 7 yds , what a OL
Bush numbers.

Just get him on the field. He is a multi millionaire. He enjoys life. If he is eligible, put him in. Integrity and capital conflict at times. Get him in the reg games.

Listening to the interview doesn't dismiss the notion of expectations. The reason this thread exists is because OP is surprised that JMatt and Zay can communicate at an adult level. He doesn't expect Zay and JMatt to be capable of this lofty feat of "well-spoken". Why is that? I don't know why, but I know these threads never start with Peterman, Hogan, and Wood as the subject.
I'm not offended by the observation or OP's choice of words. I'm a bit surprised that OP himself is surprised by the reaction his thread has gotten. Or at least I would be surprised if I hadn't already seen this same thread started a number of times.
Starting this thread requires a certain lack of awareness. Flack is an effective learning tool.
Exactly.
And ask T-Bomb if he thinks Kaepernick is well spoken.
Hey T-Bomb.
Is Kaepernick well spoken? How about Cornel West? Eldridge Cleaver? Chuck D? Bob Marley?

LIFE isn't safe... that's how it goes. To shelter kids from football isn't a solution if they want to play.
If my son wants to join the military like me, or football, then I say GO FOR IT because everyone eventually suffers from something- we are human beings.

That's the roll of the dice. Can he stay healthy and would be have signed?
We had a season to see while on a rookie contract and only got a 2nd and an average CB. Have to roll those dice.
-
He was here to win a championship, but realized Beane and McDermott really aren't trying to win in '17 after they traded Sammy.
Nailed it! Totally agree.
-
So what are we going to do with the extra cap room we save from the high talented, rookie contracts? And I love the assumption, across the board really, that Beane will be a mastermind in the war room. 6 picks in the first three rounds means squat if you don't hit on them.
I agree with you. It just appears that spending money is not part of the plan.
-
You also have to take into account the cap savings which is over $10mil for Taylor next season and around $10mil for McCoy in 2018 and 2019 combined.
They do not need to sign any expensive players. They will have a ton of high talent rookie contracts. Trading Watkins implies that they're not spending money.
-
Sure. I would not mind if the Bills made these trades. If they did not trade Watkins, I would disagree. But since they moved our second best offensive player, why not? Also, it seems that a major part of stock piling drafts picks is to get a franchise quarterback. Peterman was a 5th rounder, not a early first rounder. Let him play and see what happens. It probably won't be very pretty. But then we get a better draft position. Again, since we traded Watkins, the OP's suggestion is not all that far-fetched.

In 1519, the Aztec empire was ruled by the Montezuma, a widely aggressive and angry king, who spent years attempting to broaden his empire by use of his people through war and personal sacrifice. Then, in late August, the Spanish Conquistador Cortes marched on the city with great military power. After diplomatic relations failed, the citizens eventually turned on Montezuma, many viewing Cortes as a savior, or God. For approximately two years the Aztec people were subject to religious persecution and war against the very man they originally viewed as the savior. In 1521, the city was ransacked and nearly destroyed.
Rex was Montezuma. We are the Aztecs. McBean are the conquistadors.
Although it looks good at face value, I am very hesitant to praise any move until they can prove some worth in the eyes of the fan base.
Impressive.

What is defined as "unarmed"?
Oh lord.

There's one. Got any others to support the statement that you made that there is a problem with cops shooting black men for no reason?
Oh, btw, Slager was arrested and charged. Not sure if you caught that part of the story.
"Supporter of cops". Nice.
