  1. If they move the stadium downtown it is highly unlikely Ill ever go to another game. The parking down town is a nightmare and getting in and out of the stadium will be atrocious. Trying to get out of a Sabres game is terrible, I cant imagine what it would be like with three times the people.
  2. Not sure the Rams were fleeced. Goff withstanding, of the 5 1st round picks they gave up they have 2 Pro Bowl/All Pro Level players. They used the draft picks, just not on draft night. Depends on how you want to build your team. But I think using 5 1st rounders and getting a starting QB, a #1 wide out, and a All Pro Cornerback in return is kind of a high rate of success. If you look at the Bills last five 1st rounders would you prefer what the Bills have or the Rams: Bills: Ed Oliver, Josh Allen, Tremaine Edmunds, Tre White, and Shaq Lawson Rams: Jalen Ramsey, Brandin Cooks, and Jared Goff I'd still take the Bills but it's not an easy choice.
  3. Never understood what happened with this guy. Made a start and did relatively well, and then hardly saw the field after that. Makes sense the Dolphins grabbed him as Flores had him in NE. Glad he had a stop between the Bills and Dolphins
  4. I would trade a 3rd, at the highest a 2nd for A.J. Green. Not like they've been making a lot out of 2nd round picks as of late, nothing ventured nothing gained.
  5. Are we really still talking about this idiot?
  6. My kid just saw the breaking news on tv and laughed...his last name is Ramsey. I must make sure he never finds out about weed.
  7. Apparently he told Belichick that upon conclusion of said talk he was held down against his will...which was of course a lie.
  8. Until they can prove they can score points on a consistent basis I won't feel good about them heading into the games against the Eagles, Browns, Ravens, or Patriots. I don't know how we can call any game a lock until the offense steps up. I think the national media is rating them too high based on their record. The next three games will be a huge litmus test for the team. If they are a good team they should handle Miami and Washington easily, and be very competitive against the Eagles. If they are the same ole Bills they will need 4 quarters against the Dolphins and Skins, and lose to Philly. I am in a serious wait and see mode with them.
  9. I am all for bringing the guy back on the practice squad. He was here for two offseasons and knows the playbook. You will get a lot more out of him if McKenzie goes down than you will a street free agent or someone like Jordan Veasey. I am not a fan of his by any means, but he would be good insurance.
  10. The holding calls on long runs have become outrageous. Block in the back or holding on a kickoff or punt return that goes for more than ten yards is almost predictable. What they need to do is call the penalties that are egregious and obvious, otherwise stop with the judgement calls, because there is too much variability in judgement. There are way too penalties per game. I think on average there are 7 penalties per game in the NFL. Looks like this year the penalties are trending up, on pace for 200 more than last year and 2018. Rather than add more rules, the NFL needs to scale back the refs impact on the game. Stress that only very obvious calls are made, and then use technology to further reduce judgement calls, like where to spot the ball and whether a player broke the goal line or not.
  11. The next three games will reveal about the Bills. They need to show they can score points. If Allen doesnt show more I think all the talk about the 5th seed is going to be something we look back on and hate one another for.
  12. He is on pace for 90 catches and 1200 yards. If our QB threw touchdowns I am sure he would be up there in those as well.
  13. He is a 2nd round talent, at guard. Despite the Bills forcing the issue the kid isnt long or twitchy enough to play tackle. Put him in at guard and he is a mauler.
  14. Would love to see it. Cant take another 4-1 to 8-8 disaster
  15. Thats why no one traded for him. Better catching back than running back
  16. It waa too nice out. I attempted to use the rest of the propane by doing chivettas and mixed veggies. Labatts to wash it down.
  17. Truly hope JA gets his s together because this thing is there for the taking.
  18. Exactly. They should have got a LT before they got another toy on offense.
  19. Mahomes has been a product of extreme athleticism and an amazing support cast. His ankle is messed up so the extreme athleticism is gone. When he signs his next contract the supporting cast will be gone. He is a good player but he also plays above the game rather than in it. If he doesnt win a superbowl this year or next I am not sure he will. Mayfield needs a new coach.
  20. I understand. I am still a giant work in process, but had I not found God and been saved I would have been dead by now. I am glad Duke is where he is. Even if he just becomes a role player, its a huge victory for Jesus and Duke both.
  21. I agree. He is an awkward guy, kind of like a four year old who has candy right before bed. However, compared to the going through the motion guys who bring absolutely nothing to a broadcast, and repeat the same tired garbage every week, I think he is watchable. If nothing else you may get a nugget like saying Edleman gets the nut once and awhile. Very surprised someone was willing to put him on TV, a bit of a ticking time bomb, but thats the fun of it for me.
  22. The XFL needs to do the opposite of everything the NFL is currently doing. Limit replay, cut the crap on the roughing the passer, stop with the outrageous penalties and give fans a game they actually enjoy watching rather than having no other choice.
  23. Depends, is the game on the schedule this year? If so, I imagine Flores would come out and put every starter he has on the injury report with mysterious flu like symptoms which started sometime after the team dinner on Saturday night. #TankforTua
  24. The only players I can see with the numbers to make it as All Pros this year are Poyer and White. Edmunds is getting a lot of positive feedback recently but he hasnt impacted the game in terms of sacks and ints. He may be playing better, but his stats are a bit below what he put up last year. Milano is probably my favorite player on the team, but again he doesnt show up heavy on the stats which I think a lot of national writers look into. The Bills are playing really great team football right now.
