Zach Ertz about to be traded? [Edit: or Not]
thenorthremembers replied to Rubes's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
What happens 1st: Eagles trade Ertz or the Stadium has a new name? -
Quinton Jefferson to Raiders
thenorthremembers replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
My Raiders fan brother in law text me and asked me if Jefferson was any good. I told him he is a pretty forgettable player. Wish the guy the best of luck but he was the definition of a JAG here. -
Ike Boettger tendered

Good move. Perfect type of money for a swing guard who can compete with Ford. -

Cards continue their bid to play in the 2013 Super Bowl. -
Pegula's jet flight activity Chicago?

If its Khalil Mack they will make room, there is no doubt in my mind it will be figured out. -
I think they want to wait to bring someone in to make sure the stink of this season doesnt get on them. Had they fired Krueger earlier I think they probably would have tried to bring in another coach to salvage the season, but it's just too far gone now. I think bringing someone into mess right now may just ruin things for that person next year as well. I think if Boudreau wants into the organization that bad his interest will still be there next season. Like you I am expecting something less exciting. One guy to keep an eye on if they dont bring in someone with NHL head coach experience (they should) is Jeff Daniels the Assistant Coach in Carolina. Played with Adams during his career, and coached him for a year as well.

You nailed it here. I am a big Carson Wentz guy, but he looked like he didnt belong in the league last year. A lot of that had to do with his inability to set his feet without getting trucked, but Ertz gets a pass from me for last year. -
I'd love to see Boudreau here, he has taken every team he's coached to the playoffs. He isn't a Stanley Cup coach, but at this point the Sabres shouldnt be thinking about the Cup. They desperately need to fix the festering culture they have and Boudreau can do that in the short term, but I dont think he can be a long term answer due to age. Ideally you could bring in a younger coach, but with how bad its gotten I think you need to bring in someone with some respect in the league.

[Vague Title] Thoughts on a hypothetical trade.
thenorthremembers replied to dbfla10's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I'd do it in a heartbeat. The "Two Time Pro Bowl Linebacker" shouldn't be in the Bills plans long term. He will cost too much and he is not nearly good enough after three years in the league. Maybe he proves a lot of us wrong this year, but I think he is a below average middle linebacker who makes little to no impact on the game. If you get Pitts you upgrade your offense, and can still use your second round pick on one of the many good linebacker prospects in the draft. -
Even at 34 Sanders is the better wideout right now. Smoke may be the more dangerous wideout, but Sanders is the more consistent. He has far better hands, and more importantly he is more available. The Bills were in a terrible position during the playoffs last year because of injury. Love Smoke, but Sanders is an upgrade.

Agreed. My Brother in Law is a Raiders fan so we talk about our two teams often. He loves what the Bills are doing, specifically he is a big Josh Allen fan. I feel bad for him because when I look at the current Raiders roster, it really is a mess. I love that they signed Smoke, in his short time here he became on of my favorite Bills ever, but what they really needed was a bigger boundary wideout. Watching them reminds me so much of the old Bills teams.
-
I agree. Plenty of former Bills still in the good graces of team have done much worse.

Makes sense. Not surprised by this in the least. If you wanna fly you gotta comply brother. Doesn't change my opinion of Daryl that much to be honest.
-
Literally saw a Peter Pan picture in a post two days ago. He is out there...and waiting. Thats Daryl Talley for sure, but I cant tell the context of why he is being thrown off the plane.

He should have never been hired. The guy was an international hockey coach who had rarely coached at the NHL level. Not to mention he had been out of Hockey and in Soccer predominately since 2014. The game had passed him by and the players on the team knew it. Obviously his scheme doesnt work, but I dont think the players were all that interested in playing it in the first place. The Sabres whiffed bad on this hire. The players were already on their way to checking out, and when they hired what the players viewed as a Soccer guy to coach them they completely checked out. The Sabres desperately need a proven hockey coach for their next hire. The culture is a mess.
-
Whoever called him the Dick Jauron of Sabres coaches was dead on. The guy was way over his head.
