    Shady was one of the first prolific players I can remember that backed Allen early on. Touting that he was special. Dude was 💯

     

    After watching so many players come through here during the drought he was one of the first players I watched and thought oh thats what a special talent looks like.

  2. If your bored give it a watch/listen.  First and foremost, Shady is hilarious.  Secondly, he goes to bat for Allen quite a bit.

     

    Part that stood out was Edelman saying a former Bill who played with both Josh Allen and Daniel Jones said Jones was way more accurate than Allen.  Have to imagine it was Beasley or Hodgins, but Breida or Davis Webb would also make sense.

  3. Seems like a lot more smoke than fire.  That said, McDaniel will be on his 3rd Defensive Coordinator in as many years, neither of which is gone because they were promoted to a head coach somewhere else.   Additionally, if you have players that play hard depending on how they feel about a coach, then you have the wrong type of players.   Not hard to prove when Tyreek Frickin Hill appears to be a voice of reason in this article. 

     

    I understand coaching has changed a lot over time but I think when you fail to delineate yourself from your players you're asking for trouble.   There needs to be some clear standards set, otherwise who are they answering to?

    Mike Vrabel would have been a better choice.

    Thats if he wanted the job.  He is getting paid 19 million dollars over the next two years by the Titans to stay home. 

     

    Personally, I think the guy is taking a year off to see if the Ohio State job opens up at the end of the year.    If not maybe the Steelers job is open?

  5. Rodgers is an intelligent guy, but he isn't an emotionally intelligent guy.   He knows a lot about a lot, but his lack of emotional intelligence doesn't allow him to recognize the things he doesn't know, for example, being an NFL GM.   His arrogance led him to believe he should be involved in roster decisions and play calling.    Being a winning organization, the Packers saw it for what it was and moved on.    The Jets, being a losing organization with a head coach who is equally as arrogant bought into it.  The Packers chose the organization over Rodgers.  The Jets made Rodgers the organization.

    Any chance we bring him in for a tryout?  I’d give it a shot. 

    Screw a tryout he needs to be signed to a futures contract and brought to training camp.

    I mean to be fair 31 teams’ message boards all end the year the same way. Only one gets to be the exception. 

    Thats exactly what I've had to tell myself and luckily, I've grown into believing it.  It saves me a lot of grief over football. 

     

    And the more I look into playoff history the more I realize its incredibly hard to make it to the Superbowl.  In the last 20 years of the NFL only 7 franchises have represented the AFC in the Superbowl.   NE, KC, Pitts, Den, Indi, Bal and Cinci.   Which is to say only five QBs have gotten their teams to the Super Bowl from the AFC in twenty years.

    This.

     

    And I think we beat KC without all the injuries.

    100%.  I went into the game knowing the linebackers being out would be a huge deal.   Mahomes loves to work the middle of the field and quick passes just outside the hashes.    Not only that, but I dont think Johnson or Douglas were completely healthy.    The end of the season was the first time I'd ever thought Josh was the best QB in the league.   There is still time, and I have every confidence Allen will bring one to Buffalo.

  9. So if you kill someone with your car after drinking it's manslaughter but if you get messed up on weed and stab someone over 100 times that's probation?

     

    Something tells me if this women was  300 lbs,  looked like Bill Belichick in a dress and lived in any state with common sense she'd be doing a lot more than probation.

     

    Pot is only part of the problem here.    I'm gonna go ahead and assume this was pot from these cool new dispensaries that make the strains way too high. 

     

    This idiot didn't involuntarily stab anyone. Regardless of pot, alcohol or any other substance your brain still has to tell your hands to grab a knife and plunge the thing into a human body 100 times.   She is an adult, understood she was putting a foreign substance into her body, anything after that is 100% on her.

     

    Jesus California...do better.

  10. Oft injured, high volume, low production player.  He would be a huge risk for the Bills as he likely will demand 12-13 million dollars on the open market. 

     

    While he had his best year under Brady is 2020, he needed 140 touches to get to just over 1000 yards.     Only way I see it happening is if they can bring him in for Harty makes now which is just a bit over 5 million. 

  11. May as well pick up the option and see what he turns into as he builds muscle and strength.  He is a very young player, will only be 24 at the start of next season.   If you pick up the option, you essentially have a 24-year-old edge rusher with average production and high upside on a 2 year 17.5-million-dollar contract.   He hasnt been elite like a member of this board promised he would be, but I am not sure you find 6 sacks a year from a free agent for much cheaper and Groot has already had time playing in the system.
