A little history. I am a life long Bills fan, as such I taught my wife about the game and she has slowly become a big fan as well. Our entire family was so excited about the AFC Championship game we setup our kids beds on our floor to watch the game with us. My In-Laws on the other hand watch the games, but dont really cheer on the team. However, they know how much we love the Bills. Not two seconds after the Championship game ended my wife got this text from my mother in law, below. Apparently she has been watching "All the Chiefs games since Mahomes came into the league" despite not having the NFL Ticket, and living in Western NY. I think she was just trying to get under our skin. For this reason I hope the Chiefs lose.

Joe B article speculates John Brown will be cut
thenorthremembers replied to DJB's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Right essential space to sign better and younger talent. -
I think you keep Daryl. He played very well all year and has been a good NFL player outside of the year he was recovering from injury. He has the size the Bills are looking for on the line, and could solidify the spot for 3-4 years. Given the cap, I'd normalize the deal across 4 years and see if he would take less in the 1st year. The Bills have a decision to make on the line. I think they could easily cut ties with Morse, resign Williams, and move Feliciano to center. A lot of big bodies in the draft at the guard position, and with those moves you come into 2021 with a much bigger and more physical line.

Will Fuller or Curtis Samuel come on down. -
Peterman signed to extension

God Bless America. Dude is going to end up with close to $5 million dollars in his bank account by being historically terrible at what he does. Says a lot about being a likeable person. -
Somewhere along the line reverence and respect went way out the window. The way we treat the elderly in this country is abhorrent.

The Great Tremaine Edmunds Debate
thenorthremembers replied to JohnNord's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Has anyones opinion of Tremaine changed since we had the "Tremaine Edmunds is he good" thread two weeks ago? I imagine he hasnt gotten any better or worse having not played a down of football since then. -
I blame people doing the college recruiting. How guys with arms like Aaron Rodgers and Josh Allen fail to get a D1 Scholarship offer out of High School absolutely blows my mind.

Jadeveon Clowney as a UFA
thenorthremembers replied to Dkollidas's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I dont know what it is about this guy that has people pounding the table for him every year? Is it name recognition, or the fact that he looks intimidating in a football jersey? He has missed 25% of his games since word go, and has never had more than 9.5 sacks in a season. No thank you. -
I think both teams are unlikable. As a Bills fan I havent forgot Gronk's elbow smash on Tre. I also think the Chiefs were classless in throwing punches, and tossing our two best players to the ground after the whistle blew. Not sure how anyone can cheer on a team that employs both Tyreek Hill and Frank Clark, but its also not my place to try and determine that. I hope they both have become better people, and have left their mistakes in the past. That said, I hope the Chiefs lose on Sunday. I dont think they will, but I hope they do.

I’m warming up to the JJ Watt idea
thenorthremembers replied to John from Riverside's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Love the leadership he'd bring to the team, but think he still demands 13-15 million a year, which is very rich for a 32 year old defensive end. I think he makes more sense for teams like the Browns, Colts, or Patriots who have a little more money, but if the cap ends up more than the expected 175 million, I'd welcome him here. -
At the time Ralph was 91 years old and leaning heavily on guys like Russ Brandon. I think the culture here was rotten to the core because of that. Marty would have had a hard time turning the team around because marketing people were running the show rather than football people, and the football people they did have in place were too over-employed, and over-paid to say a word about it. Essentially you had a bunch of people milking a 91 year old who was three years away from his grave. The Bills finally got better because McDermott was able to show the Pegulas what was actually going on, and the Pegulas were of sound enough mind to make the moves to support McDermott in cleaning up the rotten culture. The over-employed, over-paid people were shown the door and the team was finally able to mend. As much as I love Marty, I dont think he could have done much about the situation here. I don't think many people would have been able to because they needed to be empowered by ownership to take out the garbage, and ownership wasnt present at that time.

Going to be honest, I've never seen much sense in paying a backup Quarterback. If your number one guy goes down for a long stretch, the likelihood that a average to below average Quarterback wins you enough games to justify the millions you pay him is minuscule. I'd rather take the 5-8 million you're going to spend on Mitchell Trubisky and use it one someone who makes a difference when Josh is healthy. Point being, if #17 goes down you're screwed anyways. If Josh spends the majority of the year on the bench I'd rather have the high draft pick to use for when Josh gets back, then waste millions for when he isnt.

“I love you Josh Allen!” *Cole Beasley voice*
thenorthremembers replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Thats my Quarterback. -
You dont stop Travis Kelce. You play the defense that fits your talent to the best of your ability, and then you try to score more points than them with your offense. I was listening to Joe Marino last week and his solution was Hamsah Nasirildeen from FSU. If Hamsah Nasirildeen was the solution, dont you think he would be going top ten in April? There isnt some secret formula. This entire discussion reminds me of the Bills trying everything to stop Gronk ten years ago. They never had the answer because they tried to solve it with defense. The secret isnt in stopping the unstoppable player. The answer is to get your own unstoppable players and score more touchdowns.

Martellus Bennett about the dark side of football
thenorthremembers replied to Big Turk's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
So stop playing. Go get a real job that pays 50 to 100k a year and see how fast you run back to the dark world of football. -
How Allen will Work to become a better QB
thenorthremembers replied to Hapless Bills Fan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
The one thing that continues to be an issue, although was a bit better this year, is deep ball accuracy. When you have a guy running wide open for an easy 6 an NFL QB cant miss em, its inexcusable. He could use to get the ball out faster, but so much of that has to do with talent around him as well.
