  1. Personally love it. Hue is still making money from the Browns, and probably should have waited until a new coaching staff was in Cleveland before accepting a new job, especially within the division. He didnt take the job because he needs the money, he took it because he was trying to stick it to the Browns for firing him, even though they held on to him longer than he deserved. Anyone going on about how Baker is a jerk, better have a real positive opinion of St. Doug, otherwise they are being a bit hypocritical.
  2. I would sign Lorax up for one more year. He has played well this season, knows the system, and is an incredible leader. Kyle, I think retires.
  3. Josh put on a good show yesterday with his feet, but I am still incredibly worried about his ability to throw the ball. Right now I would take Darnold. You cant get by on 52.5% completion rate for long. Hopefully Jackson comes to Earth a bit and stops winning games, its only been two, but if we take those games into account he looks like the 2nd best. Mayfield Jackson Darnold Allen Rosen
  4. I work in healthcare and we use it. I was very surprised when I heard it in the video.
  5. Agree here. Just 1st half was pretty brutal. Milano had a rough 1st half as well.
  6. Still have no idea how Terrell Davis was such a mandated player to get in. Don't think Ricky Watters is a lock either, but he should be in if Davis is.
  7. He hasn't been a All-Pro but he has been a serviceable player, not his fault the Bills signed him to an insane contract. That said, he has had his worst year as a Bill. It honestly comes down to whether the Bills think someone like Jesse James is a better player than Clay at this point in his career because Clay's cap hit plus the 3-4 million it will cost to bring in another tight end will be about what Clay is slated to make next year anyways.
  8. Had a Rage Against the Machine live in Brazil DVD when I was a teenager. Holy cow, would love to see that band live.
  9. He isnt actually upset, to be actually upset he would have to put some real thought into it. He is a 24 year old kid who is acting on pure emotion over things he thinks he should feel.
  10. Funny how this fella went radio silent up until he had two picks last week. There isn't a team I dislike more than the Jaguars. Between Ramsey, Dareus, their quitter head coach and Bortles running his way to a playoff win against us, they have overtaken the Patriots. I can at the very least respect what the Patriots have done. The Jaguars have won absolutely nothing.
  11. Been wondering about this thread. Does everyone still hate the Pegulas with the Sabres being good?
  12. 1) Best Concert You've Ever Seen Brandi Carlile w/ Margo Price @ Asbury Hall 2016- She sang Amazing Grace acapella with all the hall lights off. The entire crowd joined in and about 300 people sang together in the dark. Perfect night. 2) Worst Concert You've Ever Seen Linkin Park @ Darien Lake. They should have never been the headliner with Korn on the bill. Sounded really bad. 3) Bucket List Concert Right now it's Jason Isbell. 4) Concert you wish you could see, but can't due to death/bandbreakup etc. Nirvana
  13. A role no one should get paid nearly 16 million dollars a year to play. Money like that should be reserved for penetrating defensive tackles and defensive ends.
  14. Puts you in Greedy or Jonah Williams town. Pretty perfect considering the last name.
  15. You're 100% correct. Last night was a college football game. Personally feel like it waters down the product. With the salary cap it will lead to more superstar two year NBA type teams. Which means you will have 2-3 teams with a legitimate shot and 17 weeks of football where 29 other teams are just going through the motions. Honestly, why bother rushing the passer at this point? You may as well just draft all corners and safeties with speed, drop 10 and put a spy on the QB.
  16. I think David Shaw from Stanford would make a good NFL HC. Wouldnt be blown over to see him replace Harbaugh in Baltimore if he does end up leaving. I
  17. I like the red unis, and think the throwbacks with the standing buffalo helmet are outstanding as well. I am not a huge fan of our regular uniforms however.
  18. I understand what you're saying. But you are also assuming he isn't spending it like a total buffoon. Just my best guess, but I assume he isnt spending money like an average 9-5 guy either. It may seem crazy to us, but how many times have you heard of these guys pissing away millions of dollars and ending up bankrupt?
  19. He was set to double his career earnings. Wealth or not that's a huge loss.
  20. I hope his rap career can subsidize the amount of money he just wasted. I dont think he is going to find what he is looking for next season either. Who holds a 14 million dollar lottery ticket in their hand and throws it away?
  21. Does anyone really expect people believe that Le'veon Bell gave up 14 Million dollars for the greater good of the position? Give me a break. Simply signing an 18 million dollar contract would have done worlds for his position, it was about him plain and simple. He got it in his thick head he was worth 20 million a year and somehow decided wasting a year in the prime of his career was worth it. When he comes back he will be a 27 year old running back who will be lucky to sign a two year contract with the likes of the Jets, Raiders, 49ers or best case the Colts. Total waste.
  22. Bowles has looked like that since the day he took over the team. I can remember that same look dating back to the games they had against the Bills when Rex was still here. He may be a great coordinator, but he has no business running the show.
  23. Absolutely no reason to run that play.
  24. Again, agree to disagree on Sammy. I am not a fan of the moves the team has made on offense at all. That includes drafting Allen. But I am glad Watkins isn't here, especially at that price. I will say that his move on Revis a few years ago is still on of my favorite routes I have ever watched a wideout run.
  25. You're making a lot of assumptions here my friend. I think Reid is maybe one of the most underrated coaches in the league, and has been for a long time. I also love what McVay has done in LA. I also dont think Gilmore sucks, and never have. What I am trying to say is this. Sammy Watkins is not worth 16 million dollars a year. He is often injured and is way closer to a third tier wideout in this league than he is an elite talent. I think its also a bit of a falsity to keep saying McVay wanted him. Yes they did sign him, but they also didnt resign him, so in that sense McVay is also one of the coaches who didnt want him. You're also incorrect on the 23 pts/gm the last time he was fully healthy here. He was only "fully healthy" here one time, his rookie season. They averaged 21 points a game that year. Agree to disagree I guess. But I feel like this argument, and not just with you, is more about how fans feel about the Bills and McBeane in particular, than it is about the simple truth about Sammy Watkins, which is this. The guy is a high first round draft bust who never lived up to his potential in the league. Given his draft status he should be putting up elite numbers. Instead he is a #2 wideout in the league. Understood. I thought I remembered him being knocked out of a game with a concussion last year. However, if he misses time with this foot injury is it not fair to say he has missed time in the majority of the seasons he has played in?
