  1. He looks like he needs to add a bit of weight, but based on the play to this point both Draft Network and Draftek have him as a late 2nd round projection.
  2. I honestly cant speak on it much as I never saw either of them play, just able to look at stats. However, Plunkett has a higher career completion percentage, and Joe only had one season where he threw for more touchdowns than ints.
  3. Dont disagree, but the HoF is a weird place. Joe Namath was probably just as bad, if not worse.
  4. I knew early on the depth of my love for the team. I dont know how old I was, 5 maybe 6, 1988 or 1989. I watched every Sunday with my Dad. One particular Sunday I asked my Dad how long he had been a Bills fan, and I vividly remember him saying "Oh buddy, I am not a Bills fan, I am a Raiders fan." I felt so betrayed! But I stayed with the Bills. When 51-3 happened I remember our phone ringing after every score, it was my Dad's buddies calling to give him crap. I loved my Dad dearly, my hero for sure. But that day I was one of his Bill's fan buddies giving him hell for being on the wrong side. 29 years, and six kids later, I have a family full of Bills fans who sit and watch with me every Sunday, win or lose. The Bills come up every Friday on my way to drop my children off at school. My 14 year old daughter tells me her friends at school ask her how she knows so much about football. She tells them, I come from a Bills family. Sundays in my house are filled with high fives, great food, and lots of love- Our Buffalo Bills are a huge part of that. I only wish my Dad were here to watch Bills and Raiders with us next year. The thing is, the Bills arent just a football team, they are part of my family memories. Giving up on the Bills would feel like turning your back on family. You dont do it.
  5. Prayers for a safe surgery and speedy recovery brother.
  6. I've been dealing with them for four months now. I started service with them in August when I moved to my new house. They never told me they were in a dispute with CBS which shows a majority of the Bills games. I cancelled after one day of service, told them I wasnt paying the early termination fees because they never disclosed the dispute and blackout on the channel. After 3 and a half months of calls from them, first looking for the money, and then telling me it was taken care of and they wouldnt bother me again, they sent me to a creditor. Literally had 5 different customer service people tell me they waived the fees with no charge. Once I went to social media they called me immediately and said they would waive the early termination fee, but still wanted the $4 dollars for the one day of service. I told them I'd pay the $4 dollars once they sent me the $200 dollar gift card they never sent when I signed up. After that they didnt want the $4 dollars. Dispute with DirecTV
  7. No. He is taking advantage of double teams and broken plays. He is a good player but his season reminds me a lot of the Dareus 10 sack season. He beats his 1 on 1 and runs free at the qb. He may get back up to the area of 7 but what you should expect from him is 3 to 5.
  8. Congrats to Tre. Poyer and Phillips should be going as well but again no one watches it.
  9. Yetur Gross Matos. I think you'll see the Bills resign a lot of players, grab one big name wideout and draft defense early followed by depth on offense.
  10. The offense should keep them out of the top five, but when you've clinched a playoff spot and you're not in the top 8 the media is just being short sighted and bias.
  11. Was a big Joe B guy but his podcast with Fairburn is a cynic fest. A lot of his takes are doom and gloom or a bright shade of black.
  12. One of my favorite guitar players. Love his solo stuff as well.
  13. I am beyond happy about the season but not being a Bills fan was never an option.
  14. It happened more than once. It appears thats the way the Steelers teach it.
  15. Lol. Couldnt be more happy I was wrong.
  16. 85 yards passing sounds a lot like the amount of yards Allen was able to muster against ranked teams in college. He isnt the guy.
  17. He is a petulant baby. Has used every angle for people to feel sorry for him this year and when none of that worked he resorted to the one thing he still has, white vs black. The sad part is it will work. Its not whiteys fault.
  18. Probably my favorite player on the team right now. Love how much tenacity he plays with.
  19. I am in the minority, I love Rex. But, Kitchens is what Rex pretends to be. Rex is the kid with the golden spoon who still acts like he came from the college of hard knocks.
  20. I think its a push. He also did them a favor. Still a mid level Cornerback, but they save around 11 Million dollars in salary on a guy who is at the end of his career. He was likely out the door at the end of the season anyway.
  21. Liked how the Jets started with the quick pass. They know the Ravens are going to do the same thing to Darnold they did to Allen, the run on 2nd down can go though.
  22. Never forget 1st grade, 1990, Lyndonville Elementary School. Each of us had to write a poem about something we loved. A kid in my class drew a massive (yet awful) Don Bebee figure enveloped in a twister with Bengals chasing him. The poem went something like this Don Bebee is so fast, he is the best in the west Don Bebee is so fast, he is better than the rest Even at 6 I wanted to remind him the Bills were not in the west. My other favorite Don Bebee moment is when Maddy Glad called him Dan Bebee on OBL.
  23. Loved Tre from day one, but watching his video with Bruce Smith last week I could see how much football means to him. It was truly moving to see how earnest he was asking questions of the legend. Hope this guy is here for his entire career, could very well end up on the wall of fame some day.
  24. Shurmur and Gettleman could both be out in NYG.
