  1. I can say that Thursday has come and gone twice this season without me realizing a game was on until the next day when guys were chattering about a bad loss having taken place.

     

    Thursday is just a weird day to be playing NFL football in general, it gets more strange when forcing people to login to a company's website that you associate with ordering music from in order to catch it.

     

    Nope, I can wait three more days.

    I’ve been the only girl among a pack of boys most of my life both in my family and my neighborhood so I learned to fight dirty. But I don’t think a kick to the stones will take down McD. Thankfully I also think he would never ever fight a woman so I’d win by default. 😂

     

    Do you kick girls in the stones too?

  3. Nah, you gotta declare that he'll be for us what Cee Dee Lamb is for the Cowboys to drive home the impact and reliability you think he'll have.

     

    Shakir to me has what it takes to duplicate what Diggs meant to the team and what he produced.

     

    I gotta at least one laughing emoji for stating it a few months back. 😠

    For those of you that aren’t thrilled about the Keon Coleman pick…remember one thing.  Word came out that he was the last receiver left on Allen’s wish list. Thats a big deal. Why would Beane not want to consult the face of his franchise when trying to get him more weapons?

     

    This tells me that Allen’s wish list included Harrison, Nabers, Odunze, Coleman, and probably Thomas. Think of it this way…if worthy, pearsall, or legette were on that list, they would have taken them at 28, or at most 32 for legette. I’m sure Beane would have liked to have traded down another time, but he could have risked losing Coleman.

     

    I wasn’t overly thrilled with Coleman being the guy, but while he might lack separation on tape, and a good 40 time, he also had amazing splits in the 40 and other drills. The drills are where the football comes out in these guys…you know, catching the ball. Haha. Anyways…when you look at the bigger picture with Coleman, it’s not a bad pick at all. The guy is really athletic, has great hands and body control…and most of all…Allen wanted him.  

     

    But he doesn't have great hands. I could see this pick going either way because Coleman isn't elite in any one area and because Allen gets the most out of receivers.

     

    Worried about the pick because he catches a bit of passes using his body, bobbles catches, which can lead to contact drops in key moments; he also doesn't have burner speed and defenders always seem to be right there with him.

     

    He's too similar to Gabe Davis (who was taken in the 4th rd.) to really feel great about the pick, but I feel like the pick could work out, because Allen can put the ball on him in a hurry, minimizing those drops that will take place in more physical play, he seems adept at creating enough space between himself and defender during battles for the ball, and despite reminding me of Davis he seems like a better route runner and is way shiftier in space than Davis.

     

    Hopefully the OC, Allen, and Coleman make it work, otherwise this will likely go down as another offensive selection that was made a round or two too early. 

     

    *Leaning on side of it working out*

  5. Y'all were fine with Cook being taken 2nd rd. despite knowing his lack of real physicality, then later turned around to began complaining, asking 'does he ever break a tackle?', but have a problem with Ray Davis being taken in the 4th. Seems about right.

     

    We actually needed to draft an RB, and we did.

     

    He's a nice complement to Cook.

  6. I swear this only adds to the feel that the Chiefs are an A-1 org who are all about adding new trinkets and getting a leg up on the rest of the league, while the Bills feel like experts at foolishly relinquishing advantages that they had a hold of.

     

    This is what happens when fans get bigheaded before winning a championship, acting as if they have luxury, and turning on their own before even being found guilty of an accusation.

     

    Whether Araiza sticks or not, this just feels perfect with the Chiefs being at the other end.

  7. This is the one thing I've never really been able to stand on the board. We all watch the same game, but it isn't until it seems were in dire straits that people will begin acknowledging what's kind of obvious.

     

    I feel uneasy before every meaningful Bass kick and have felt that way for some time.

    You are not understanding what people mean by WR2. 

    It doesn't mean #2 in targets

    Sorry, but you think Shakir can be a #1 WR? 

    Diggs isn't going anywhere. He is still an elite WR. 

    WR#2 played college football last month

     

    Didn't suggest Diggs wasn't still an elite WR, but if there's any truth to these rumors he might not return, and yes, I do hope he finishes his career with Allen.

     

    I don't see anything that suggest Khalil Shakir couldn't be a #1 WR. He can emerge if Davis remains out, and then it will become evident that he's the more consistent, reliable WR between himself and Davis. If Diggs didn't return and we moved forward with the current WR roster, I think Shakir would be Bills'

     best WR.

    Mahomes getting a taste of what Josh Allen dealt with most of his career. 

     

    Yup, and he's not handling it well at all.

     

    Allen has the stronger arm, doesn't act like a spoiled brat that's owed something, and his voice doesn't sound weird.

     

    We have the better quarterback.
