Yes, I understand districts. Gerrymandering (by R's and D's) is one of the worst things about our country (along with lack of term limits and the corrupt Supreme Court). Still have no idea what your point is

They tend not to deal with logic or facts. Just ask Rudy Giuliani

Um, what???? The cities you mention are large urban centers that traditionally vote Democrat, just like rural areas normally vote Republican. What is your point?

You know what my favorite part of the 2020 election is? It was supposedly stolen according to Republicans, yet the GOP gained 13 seats and the majority in the House. So all of those voters who enabled a Republican majority were legit, but most of those same votes by the very same people for the presidential election were tainted? Lol you gotta love the conspiracy theories of the right

I don't know that it does, except maybe around the margins. In a close election that might have an impact but it's hardly a game changer.

We'll just try to steal the election like in 2020. There's a good template to follow

Lmao are you kidding me. I think Trump is a disgrace but you're nuttier than Magats if you think Biden is winning by 8 points lol

Good point. But I think it's a major unnecessary gamble on their end. And Stroud will be a top 3 QB eventually (if he isn't already) with or without Stefon Diggs. Regardless, the fact that we were able to recoup a mid to high #2 via the Vikings seems like a pretty good deal for Buffalo. Let's see how the rest plays out. Edit - by the way, wasn't Nick Caserio considered somewhat of a joke as an NFL executive until very recently? Yes, he fleeced the Browns for DeShaun Watson (but that's Cleveland lol). Not sure about how high his level of authority was with the Pats as Player Personnel Director.

Still don't understand why the Texans needed to bring a guy like Diggs in this offseason. Collins and Dell are beasts, then you have Schultz and Mixon. Are there enough balls to go around before Diggs starts pouting? Add in the fact that the Texans face a MUCH more challenging schedule this year, and I can see some of the good vibes from last year disappearing (though I do believe Ryans and Stroud are a stud combo).

What's Brandon Reilly up to these days?

When you consider his TD to INT ratio was 29-18 last year, I find it very hard to believe there won't be improvement (at least in that area)

Yes to Ogbah. I respect Calais Campbell but he's old as dirt and we need another pure defensive end pass rusher. Ngakoue is kinda like Jadaveon Clowney to me. Big name guy who's overrated and finds himself on a different team every year.

Just hope it isn't early season. I went in 2017 Week 2 and it was the most miserable experience because of the heat. There is not a spot in Bank of America stadium where there is any relief from the sun.

I usually take a seat in the piss troughs

Feel pretty good about this schedule. Two tough stretches but two easier spells as well, including the final 3 games. The key to me is the first 6 games: 2-4 = Boned 3-3 = In the game 4-2 = Golden I see 10 wins for sure, but no more than 11. This is a playoff slate with the only question being a 10-7 WC or 11-6 AFC East Champ. Tiebreakers are going to be huge.

Um, what are you talking about? Both teams had exactly identical rest going into these games. And why does Harty's punt return serve as a negative?

Isn't it kind of a short week for them too? I mean, we both play Sunday. Plus it's Week 2 so we shouldn't be too tired yet lol

One reason might be that Thad Brown is an absolute idiot

Exactly. If the Bills were ever in a must have it position in the playoffs again, I would have zero confidence that Bass would come through. The holder discussion nonsense reeks of excuse making for a kicker who is supposedly top tier. He should have no margin for error at this point.

While Murphy had his faults as a play by play guy, his voice was infinitely better than Chris Brown's. Was holding out hope he might be able to come back.

A tie at QB? Josh is light years better than Cam ever was. Even in the 2015 year this thread is about (which was BY FAR his best season), Cam was a sub 60 percent passer and didn't crack 4,000 yards passing. Then he decided to not jump on a fumble in the Super Bowl. Add in the fact that he acted like a petulant child instead of a leader most of the time and I don't see how you could consider the two players equal. Cam Newton is one of the most overrated players in recent NFL history imo.

Never knew he was the architect of the Orange Crush. Damn near led the Bills into the first ever Super Bowl. RIP

What? That's some pretty amazing mental gymnastics simply because Terrance Gray declined an interview.

I would absolutely bring Hyde back for one final year, but if he chooses not to play I am more than fine with that as well. A summer signing would make a lot of sense.
