Yes, you can do that in mid to later rounds but I do believe even then, it's still more of a best player on their board thing. You don't get as good as we have gotten always just drafting for need. Was James Cook a need? I don't think so, but I do believe he was the highest player on their board

He drafts best player available and if that happens to be a need, he will trade up for the player. Just like he did with Elam

Nope. When it's the main game at 4:25, it doesn't get flexed

We can always be bad again and play every Sunday at 1 if it will make you happy. How does another playoff drought sound?

Why are they still doing zoom press conferences? I hate watching them

Ah, gotcha. I didn't know that. Pretty cool

That's what I was thinking. If he signed today, he could actually start on Sunday and probably be up to speed pretty quickly

I know TBD means Two Bills Drive but what is the AHOT part? Lol

Thanks

I wasn't at the game but watching it on TV, it seemed loud as hell. At that time, it was probably one of our more anticipated season/home openers ever considering what happened the year before

I did not know this. Thanks for posting

If I were the Cowboys, I would be calling up Fitz right now and seeing if he could be coaxed out of retirement. He's certainly better than anything they have

Probably not lol

Yeah, the way they handled that for 3 Bills legends just wasn't right. On Thurman Thomas's 'A Football Life" he said he actually found out on the ticker watching ESPN at home. Ownership didn't even have the decency to tell them in person

What are the requirements for the sack percentage? Seems like he should have hit it easily

70-7 sure would have been nice lol Yeah, I believe he was sacked 1 out of every like 5 or 6 drop backs. And that was for every team he played for

A lot of it was Johnson. He was one of the worst QBs in team history. We had Moulds and Price though, along with Remiersma. Definitely should have been better

I remember going into that game wanting to get that revenge against them so bad. And it was a Sunfay night game so it made it even harder lol. We got the win though, it was nice to get pay back. It would have been better if it was a blow out though

I also hated Rob Johnson. Never understood why there was a controversy back then. Probably one of the dumbest ever

Yeah, Sam Cowart was a beast. I remember being upset we didn't resign him after that season. I believe he went the Vikings after thar but was never the same player Unfortunately, this season was the first of 17 straight non playoff seasons and was disappointing. We were 7-4 at one point this season before losing 4 of our last 5

So, you're saying I should trade Ceedee Lamb in fantasy?

Allen does wear 17 and I believe only one of a few players in the team's history to do so. So it makes it even more crazy. He wears that particular number right after the drought was over Yes, I meant Mike Patrick and said Dan on accident. Thanks for catching that

I remember saying the game sounded loud on tv

Yeah, Rob Johnson was awful. And the defense this season was coming off of back to back #1 defense seasons under Ted Cottrell. The game is not particularly exciting but I only post wins against that particular opponent in the place we are playing them. This is only 1 of 2 wins against the Titans in Buffalo. The other game in 2018 which was Josh's rookie year was actually a lot more boring than this game was. I miss the old Sunday Night Football crew. Mike Patrick could make any game exciting

As I started last week, I will be posting old Bills games of our next opponent where we will be playing them the coming week. Last week I posted a 1995 Bills at Rams game and this week since it is a home game, I have chosen the Titans at Bills from week 1 of the 2000 season I refer to this as a bittersweet Bills game. Bitter because this was the very first game of the start of a 17 year playoff drought and was also the first game after the release of the big 3 (Thurman Thomas, Andre Reed and Bruce Smith) earlier that off-season. But obviously the sweet part was that it was a Bills win and you can never be upset with a Bills win. It also was a revenge game for us against Titans after losing to them in the Music City Miracle the year before and was on the opening Sunday night of the season at home in front of our fans. My biggest memory of this game was Alex Van Pelt coming in in the 4th quarter in relief of Johnson (because of Flutie injuring himself in training camp that season) to lead the Bills to a win after Johnson went down as he so often did. I also remember Steve Christie, in his last year as a Bill being clutch as he usually always was hitting the game winner in this one as well This game is only 1 of 2 times we have beaten the Titans as the Titans (not the Oilers) in Buffalo. The only other time was in 2018 which was Josh's rookie year. Feel free to post any thoughts or anything you remember about this game.
