Is Tremaine ready to break out?
thenorthremembers replied to MAJBobby's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
As much as Milano drives me crazy at times because of over running his lanes, I think he is a more impact linebacker. Tremaine doesnt overrun his lanes because he is slow to react. He doesnt need to be a thumper to be great, I just think he has slow instincts. If I had to pick between resigning Milano and Edmunds, I'd choose Milano. -
Is Tremaine ready to break out?
thenorthremembers replied to MAJBobby's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I know it's not the most popular opinion on this board but I think Tremaine is incredibly overrated due to his size. I love his leadership ability and his potential, but he seems to me as someone the Bills like to publicize as their next great superstar, when he is in fact only an above average player at his position. People like to point to his age as being one of the reasons he hasn't reached his full potential, I would argue he isn't even the best 21 year old inside linebacker in the NFL, Devin White is easily as good as Tremaine, maybe better over a full season. I also think it's not absurd to say he took a little bit of a step backwards last year compared to his rookie season. If you look at his play, he very good in coverage for a guy his size, but he continues to struggle in play recognition and run support. When it comes to pass rush, I think he has a lot to offer, but he really isnt utilized that way in McDermott's defense. Who knows maybe they open it up for him more this year. Bottom line is he probably isnt a top 15 player at his position in the league right now. The way the Bills have handled him PR wise reminds me a ton of the Aaron Williams and Eric Woods of the worlds. They were good players who were constantly publicized as "Is this the Year" types. I wish the best for the kid, but in reality I think we've seen what he is. -

Eagles HC Pederson positive for Covid.
thenorthremembers replied to Bubba Gump's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
We should know in a few weeks whether my wife had it in late February. Walked around for weeks not being able to breathe, trouble sleeping, etc. She has asthma so we just chalked it up to that. -
Eagles HC Pederson positive for Covid.
thenorthremembers replied to Bubba Gump's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
All of this is getting incredibly out of hand. He tested positive, he is asymptomatic or is he on his way to a ventilator? It seems like everyone that tests positive is lumped into the same category, when it couldn't be further from the truth. At this point just start all sports on November 4th. A lot of people have already had it without knowing it. -
Got em!!!

But she said it incredibly loud so she must be right?

They fast track vaccines and medical devices all the time. They are doing it right now with medical devices under the FDA EUA process. Its a shorter review, but its still a review that meets the standard of safe and effective. To be fair a lot has changed in terms of regulations since the 1955 polio vaccine.

Sir whats your profession....

I guess we should go ahead and take our facts elsewhere?

A majority of the time it takes to bring something like that to market is the back and forth with the government agency. The FDA is not going to knowingly skirt its own processes to bring something to market thats unsafe. Most likely what you'll see is a phased approach of the vaccine. It will be approved for limited intended use and patient population (the most high risk) and then slowly brought a long for the general population.

I dont recall the Michigan protest lasting weeks or months? Could be the difference.

100% My good man. Just thinking today when I heard about the 30,000 people in the clinical trial, I hope to God the vaccine is ready soon.
-
I think in the coming days I may announce I am opting out as well.

No sir. The good days are gone.

RIP. Times they are a changing.

Chad Kelly is Ready to Race!
thenorthremembers replied to NoHuddleKelly12's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I think we all know 2nd to 3rd string guys bounce around from team to team, practice squad to practice squad without ever seeing real game action. The fact is the kid has played well enough in the preseason to have considerations. He was also good enough at Ole Miss to be a draft pick. Had he been able to take part in pro days and combine he may have went higher. I agree he has wasted a lot of opportunities. However, that doesn't make him a bum. No one likes to talk about the work he does with local groups like the ARC of Erie County or how is has openly talked about not following his path to young football players at Kelly's camp. If we are being honest and not attacking him personally he has NFL talent or he wouldn't be there. -
The only two guys who will threaten Zay for a roster spot are Ateman and Doss. Two guys who were undrafted against a guy they gave up a draft pick for. I think he makes it this year, but will be gone after that. Additionally, they only have 3 quarterbacks listed on their depth chart so unless they only keep two guys The Peterman Can will make it as well.

Chad Kelly is Ready to Race!
thenorthremembers replied to NoHuddleKelly12's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
If he had no talent at all he wouldnt have continued getting chances because of Uncle Jim. Montana's kid played college football and went nowhere, Jordan's kid played college basketball and got nowhere. Chad got chances because he is good at football. He may have a ten cent brain but he can play football, that fact is undeniable. To be fair there are plenty of players currently in the NFL who have had more chances than Chad Kelly. -
Do I really have to specify that this doesnt encompass 4 month olds? Also thats an oddly specific number.
