  1. Great season!  When we lose it means better draft position amd when we win it means JA is likely coming along great and probably others as well; such as our D today - really everyone today save the top WR and TEs.

     

    We really cannot lose in 2018 - so no more drama as we saw here last week.  Just stay healthy - grow or die and grow is not tied to the win column.  ?

    This place is ridiculous. The Browns have 1 playoff appearance since coming back into the league, have now won 2 games in the last 3 seasons and you can probably only count on one hand the amount of winning seasons they have had since being brought back (that's including 8-8 years) all while playing in a division that has had the winner of it rotated around the other 3 teams.

     

    The Bill's have been a mediocre team over that 17 year span with mostly 7-9 to 9-7 finishes in a division that's been dominated by one team. In that same time span, how many times have the Jets or Dolphins made the playoffs?

     

    Sure you get to draft at the top if you have a winless season, but how was that working out for the Browns before this? 

     

    It's funny how Bill's fans always have to feel like they have it the worst. How about the Lions, they have a winless season a playoff drought going and IIRC, have not won a playoff game since the early 90s?

    The patriots are not the problem though.  7-9, 8-8 and almost always 9-7 is the problem.  We couldn't get the 10 or 11 wins needed to get into the playoffs.  What the pats were up to was not what was holding us out for the most part.  

  3. I just voted which is cheap as it's late but just found this thread.  Buffalo last.  We knew we we're a good chance for 0-4 due to the schedule.  Seattle and arizona play each other in week 3 or 4 so one of them is crossed off for certain before we get a shot in week 5 with the titans.

     

    Ce la vie.

    This is a VERY Stupid statement.  This is not even close to what big market media put out there towards professional franchises.  This is nothing.  

    Yea? Well, if we're gonna act like idiots then you're less than nothing - you're a sticky dingle on Rob Ryan's, sasquatch haired hinders the morning after three racks of ribs and a 12 of genny creamers.  Feckless, *VERY* Low IQ jerkface.  

     

    Now go back to reading your big market media while waiting for your high profile management meetings.  Gosh.  IDIOT!

    I don't think 240 passing yards in a game where you were behind 28-6 at the half really epitomizes a mic drop moment.  Edwards and Losman both won their first starts for what it's worth.  Hell Manuel even had a lead going into the 4th on the Pats in his first start.  Passing yards might be the most meaningless stat out there.

    Agreed.  Good on JA but that game saw much of those yards come on one huge pass to zay jones.  Zay gets hit while bobbling it then things look a lot different.

     

    Anyone remember chuck knobloch MLB gold glove 2nd baseman?  Ended great career as a yankee in a very odd way - could not throw from second to first for mental hitch reasons.  It was bizarre and lasted far too long with therapists and such.  On zay's bobble there it occurred to me that the kid seems to have a hitch - maybe a bad thought of "what if I drop this".  Not starting rumors but something I'm watching for.  Want him to be good but that bobble was weird and yet also almost seemed expected.

     

  6. So much drama.  Toughen up people. I mean, carping is to be expected but the drama and the rumor starting and conspiracy theories is a bit much.  It's kinda pathetic.

     

    Logic would imply that if wood's friends were miserable he would keep quiet for their sake.  Since he spoke publicly that tells me he is sharing truth and all is as well as can be for a last place rebuild year.  He was a captain and a leader.  

     

     

  7. {{{Eric Wood}}}  still leading.  

     

    So, all you chatty cathies who want to start rumors of a lost locker room care to call him a fibber face Jenkins?  No?  Then sit back down, zip the lips and get back with the process!   

     

    The process, as I see it, is like an emergency enema after the Ryan boys partied around in there - it's not going to be totally fun but it is cleansing and we should feel a whole lot lighter and maybe even ready to climb a mountain afterwards.  Prove me wrong. . .

    On what do you base that the owners knew that this was going to be a cluster you know what of a season?

     

    Because at least half of us knew it well before the season.  Maybe pegula's a moron AND McD lied to him but I'm going with neither of those and so, pegula knew what was obvious to at least half of the fans here. 

    What did you think the process was?  Eat chicken wings, drive a stupid bills wrapped truck, add more video game consoles in the locker room, parachute in and talk nonsense anytime a microphone is within sight?  C'mon.

    So many chatty cathies with their rumor mongering.  Danged mean girls.   Lol

    I'm still not at all convinced that the owners knew this was shaping up to be an uncompetitive 0-16 hot mess of a season.

    What do you base that on?  Esp?  Premonitions?  Vivid dreams of being on the pegula's yacht?  Do you have a friend who heard from a friend who heard it from another that this was so?  

     

    Half of the people here knew.  How could the owners not?  I was taking smack talk this summer from people here that this was not a rebuild year, etc.  I don't even purport to be an expert at NFL.  It was not only right there on the roster but McD told you of the process - how much more clear could they have been?  They fumigated OBD - and it's a good thing.  That locker room has been too comfortable with .500 for too many years and peaked with the Ryan idiot brothers.

     

     

     

  10. I was expecting to start 0-4 before the season began.  All good.  Watch josh develop and hopefully edmunds too.  See what in the oline is serviceable by end of year.  I just hope we can look competent by week 5 and hopefully beat the titans - that's a more valid test as they suck as well plus we will have had some time to work out the jitters and such - like starters retiring at halftime.  Heh.

    So a really bad record. Cool I love watching the worst team I've ever seen.

    Ya know, I was telling my son this on Sunday, it's better than watching the 10th worst team in the league every week.  I mean, at the very least the chargers first half was like an offensive highlight reel.  Everyone on that squad looked great displaying their skills.  Ha.  And we have a light at then end of the tunnel. . .with some luck needed as always.

     Not too high on the draft picks.

    We have normal picks (1 each round) then an extra 4th (chiefs) extra 5th (from steelers via raiders) and extra 7th (panthers) if i'm not mistaken.

    All our extra picks are 4th and beyond, but maybe they'll strike gold? who knows :)

    I hope.we trade our #1 or #2 pick and parlay it into a couple of later first rounds and maybe a third round or whatever the chart shows.  Spread it around.

    Tre'davious, Allen, and Edwards are a great core to build around.  Dawkins, Milano, Harrison, Poyer, Hyde are great Bills.  And we do have 10 draft picks, and tons of cap room next year.  So I am very hopeful for the Bills and Josh Allen.  Last year we almost beat Jacksonville in the playoffs.  I don't understand how we regressed this year

    We did have a .500 QB who had a ceiling near about .500 who we dumped.  We also lost our best two oline men - and we did not fix our our receivers.  In a nutshell, we broke our dumb playoff streak and have a slight hangover now - this was a rebuilding year either way though.  Meh.  Watch the youth develop.  Hopefully this is 1986 all over again.

    what is that son?   I have been going to Bills games since the early 70's and seen my share of 2-14 seasons.  The truth hurts.  Whats your problem with what I wrote?

    I was pretty clear, I think.  I too was on hand for the back to back 2-14 seasons of the mid 80s; and Ferguson and cribbs before that.  Two contrband whammy weinnies from bells in house from my travels then.  Do i pass your age sniff test?  

    Perhaps yer senile.  I apologize - it's horrible.  The browns are stacked with young talent because they did not go roughly .500 every damned year.  We have our QB now and need a ton more.  Winning 7 games this year is about the worst thing we could do with regards to our 2021 season .

    Play hard, grow and then parlay those draft picks plus good draft slot.  Or go be a browns fan.  Whatever works I guess.  Jeez.

    Would you trade our team for the Browns?  In a NY second.  The Browns have talent all over the field.  Where is ours?

    I cant think of a bigger **** show than Buffalo

    What a dumb thing to say.  Why do the browns have talent all over?  Are you really unable to connect the dots?  And yet you are clearly upset that this rebuild bills year is going to see 2-4 wins most likely?  Just please - become a browns fan. . .and when they suck again, someday, please look to Dallas.  Be gone.  Dang. 

    There really should be a test or stick to beat before able to make new threads - and I'm a newbie.

     

    Edit - buffalo is stereotyped as having football savvy fans.  C'mon!  Are you a bills fan or just a troll?

    This is my latest concern.  If this keeps up, players are going to get pissed and start dividing the locker room etc.  It could get to a point like that season when Aaron Schoebel retired because it was such a tire fire.  Then next year we'll have to run off all the guys that didn't "buy in" this year creating even more holes.

    You're just starting rumors out of one, unknown incident.   Stop that.  Stop that!
