  1. I predicted: "645 yards, 5 TD's The bulk of that coming in the 2nd half of the season when he ramps up to more playing time." Not too shabby. I didn't predict receptions, though.
  2. I don't even think it is possible, honestly. It would take every meaningful draft pick for the next couple of drafts, and since the Bills are always picking late, who even knows if they would do that? That is not true. The hype around Watkins was even greater than for Harrison, in my opinion. This is just recency bias.
  3. Uh, they've moved before. They weren't originally in KC.
  4. Yeah, people like to say winning and championships are a team stat, but the QB position BY FAR has the most to do with it. Yes, other aspects of the team are important too. That's obvious. But if you can pin winning on any one aspect, it is the QB.
  5. Real Deja Vu would be if we play them week 1 again and Rodgers gets injured... Jets fans would riot, I'm sure.
  6. If there is a position I trust McDermott with, it is safety. If he thinks he can make it work with Rapp and Edwards, that works for me. But they may also draft a guy. We'll see.
  7. It's just stupid to make a comment like that. The best thing to say is, "The Jets look to be much improved and maybe they have a shot at the division, but they have to prove it by going through Buffalo. As of now they own the AFC East." To go out and say they are better than anybody is just ridiculous.
  8. A football guy to run business operations? This has nothing to do with either sport. This is purely a business position.
  9. That was a different team. They are the Titans now. The Texans were an expansion team in 1999.
  10. Blue is too dark. Might as well just make it black. The numbers look weird. The shoulder stripes are silly. It's just change for the sake of change, which almost always turns out worse.
  11. Paying a running back almost never works out these days.
  12. I wouldn't be overly worried about Lewis, but I would prefer him as a backup for sure. Certainly would not want Hamlin as a starter. McDermott knows what he is doing with the secondary, though. That's a position group we should all be trusting him on. His track record is great.
  13. I hope he goes somewhere and excels. He deserves it after the last couple of devastating years.
  14. He is one of many free agent safeties that would be a great fit.
  15. I do feel like our receivers tend to not make those incredible catches as much as other teams have. I think it is once or twice a game I see really amazing catches when I watch other teams. It's like once every few games for the Bills. I'm not really sure why. Maybe because of how hard Allen can throw it? Maybe because we don't have contested catch guys?
  16. I'm sure it plays a role, but I don't think it is determined only by where they are from or how exposed they have been to playing in the cold. There are tons of guys from warm weather areas that have shown they can play at a high level in the cold. Some can't. This has to be one of the last things I would consider when evaluating a prospect, though. There are so many things that are so much more important than this. Unless the player is making comments about it, then you might want to stay away because it shows they are conceited and weak. The message you want to hear is, "I'll play anywhere. Cold, hot, rain, snow, whatever." If they are whining about the cold as draft prospects, that's a character concern.
  17. Well, none of us know what his intention was before and now after the signings. But Beane likes to go into a draft without any positional emergencies, so he always fills holes as best he can in free agency, which allows him to target whatever players he wants in the draft. So, I think his strategy at WR is the take one if he likes the value and likes the player at the time the Bills are picking, or to trade up and grab one if he particularly likes that player. Maybe that is in round one. Maybe not. It's hard to have a set strategy anyways because you are contending with 31 other teams. You cannot predict what will happen with any level of certainty, so you have to be able to adapt and change plans.
  18. Yeah, because all the best teams spend big in free agency.... Oh wait, no. It's the worst teams and the desperate teams that spend big in free agency.
  19. You don't eat with your hands. You eat with your mouth.
  20. Sign a guy or draft a guy. Running backs are not hard to find.
  21. Marvin Harrison Jr. - LA Chargers Rome Odunze - Chicago Bears Ladd McConkey - Carolina Panthers Brian Thomas Jr. - Buffalo Bills Xavier Worthy - Kansas City Chiefs Bonus Bills pick - Brian Thomas Jr.
  22. Yeah. Good QB's only seem to come around every few years.
  23. Maybe the Steelers retain some of his salary, but it still seems like a dumb move to me. If the Bills made this exact move, we would all hate it. At least I would.
  24. I also don't get it. Just sign a QB off the trash heap. I do not understand giving up a 4th rounder for a backup QB when you can sign one without giving up any draft picks.
