Agreed.
People can say what they want about O’Brien but Deshaun Watson developed rather nicely under him in Houston. He also runs the same offense we’re running now. Coached under Belichick and Saban.. Sound familiar? Way more polished as a coach than Daboll ever was, much better credentials too.
After hearing what BOB did in Houston to put himself in position for the Pats job while employed there in the book Its Better To Be Feared... thats not someone who seems to fit w what they have going on here. Dude sounds like a bit of a tool and Me First type of cat

We're not moving forward until we fire Sean McDermott he's not getting us anywhere. Folks lock out my USC takes and don't listen to the La Salle talks and treat me like I'm doxxing him. Sorry folks two years in inventories analysis and I can spot when someone is running a long con-artist game and a fraud operation. And, Sean has that to the hilt.
Asking for a friend, can people be fired from posting on message boards?

Riddell makes are markets many different types of helmets for each team for autograph collectors. This, ice (all white), shadow (all black w red outline) as different options for people to get signed and display. This is one of those options and nothing more fwiw

The Chiefs entered the off season after getting man handled in the Super Bowl because their O-line had fallen apart. They blew up their O-line and decided to rebuild. On paper at least, they look to have improved the line. They signed Joe Thuney to a 5 year $80 million contract and he will slide into the left guard position. They then signed Kyle Long to a one year deal to step into the right guard position. They resigned Mike Remmers to play right tackle and then traded with the Ravens for Orlando Brown to step in as their left tackle. They signed Austin Blythe from the Rams to play center, and then drafted the 2nd ranked center, Creed Humphrey, to push Blythe and develop into their future center. The only free agent they lost of any consequence was Sammy Watkins which should not slow them down much.
I think on the whole the O-line is upgraded and they kept the rest of the band together. I don't see any reasonable argument to say the Chiefs shouldn't remain the #1 seed in the AFC heading into the 2021 season.
The Browns will leap frog us this season and be the primary threat to the Chiefs. If you look at the playoffs last year, the Browns came within a fumbled football out of the endzone from beating the Chiefs. The Bills by comparison didn't even make a game of it against the Chiefs. The Browns' roster seems to match up better against the Chiefs, and that was before the Browns very impressive off season.
The defense was the weak side of the ball last season and the Browns attacked this off season with that in mind. They snagged John Johnson the best free agent safety on the market to address a huge weakness and also added CB Troy Hill who will be an instant upgrade. They brought in Clowney to stack opposite Miles Garrett on the D-line. They then drafted CB Greg Newsome and LB Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah who should both start this season. The Browns bring back their offense intact and Mayfield will have the benefit of playing in the same offense for the first time in his career. OBJ will also be back this season.
The Bills did a great job of resigning their key free agents this year and also upgraded the backup QB position. They brought in Sanders to replace Brown which could be an up grade and added Hollister to the TE room. We all hope that having Star back will have a ripple effect on the D-line and result in better play across the entire line and allow our LB play to improve as well. The entire team will benefit from another year of coaching and scheme stability and hopefully some of our young players like Oliver and Edmunds will take a step forward this year.
Overview A lot is made of the Bills retaining their own talent, and I agree that Beane did a great job of maintaining a roster that made it to the AFC Championship game, but the uncomfortable truth is that the Chiefs maintained their roster too AND improved their O-Line. The Browns also avoided any key free agency loses AND improved their defensive secondary and brought in Clowney on the D-line. The Browns and Chiefs will also benefit from another year of coaching and scheme stability just like the Bills.
The off season isn't over yet, but the free agency period is winding down and the Draft is over. Baring injuries, any changes to the rosters of the Chiefs, Browns, and Bills before opening weekend will likely just be on the margins before opening weekend. When Andy Reid looks out across the AFC, I think he is probably more worried about what is going on in Cleveland than what is going on in Buffalo. I think the Browns have improved enough this off season to move past us and become the primary threat to the Chiefs this year.
At this point I'd rank the AFC; 1. Chiefs 2. Browns 3. Bills
Any attention is good attention, am i right?!

The Chiefs gotta be over the cap. How can you have Mahomes on the contract he has? And then Kelce and Tyreek? They can't afford all those players I don't think
Maybe they are over now! Protest the game!!!

Pat's from silver to white
Yeah for whatever reason it was really disappointing that the Bills didn't do it. It was great to see them do real throwbacks for the AFL 50th and continue them. I wish they'd do the home Blues again.
So I own a white and a blue TB kelly, but was that white one once yours? Like i said it came from CL and was in a wood frame in front of some drums. The othet weird thing about most of the few Kellys out there (like the blue in the hof) is that they all have 2 stripes where the ones used in game just have 1. I originally thought it might have been tailored and modded but no one actly wore 2 stripes and as you can see with pre 91 champions some players chose the 2 stripes and some players like kelly religiously cut the bottom one off so i dunno.

Whats funny is a guy at my work just aquired a complete set of prototypes from a former nfl exec. Most are the same but there are some small differences in the placment of the russell logo on the rams sleeves, and how both the font and the name plate are slightly different fonts but the prototype used screened numbers while the final product utilized vinyl names and numbers. The bears and steelers are far and away the most involved and intricate. Just awesome jerseys and Champion was on another level with their uniforms back then. The steelers still have blanks they list on ebay that go for just under a grand which is amazing. I miss the days where there wasnt just 1 official supplier even though most were still made in Berlin WI back then (save champion in rochester) they were all different and unique.

The Oilers changed from white.
You are correct.! I should have taken the 2 min to try and remember better! That said, i still feel like it was more lazy design than cheapness but i guess we will never really know. Being sich an unestablished thing there werent really throwback rules yet. Its always fun to look back and see how much things have changed

I actually had one of these but sold it. They show up on ebay every now and then and always seem to be Kelly away ones. That's what I had.
Thats my pic! I think we spoke about this before. This came from a house next to Rex that had it framed and in front of a drum set. A white and blue just sold last week. The white that sold incorrectly had 2 patches though. A few Simpsons are out there as well. Other than that maybe 6 others are known in the hobby, 2 of which are a blue Daviss. Cool stuff!
On 11/23/2020 at 5:51 PM, jkx2 said:That 100% correct. It was the first time the NFL did throwbacks and I was excited to see the Bills uniforms of my youth. While other teams wore great throwbacks. The Bills and Jets just slapped a logo on their existing helmet. To cheap to do the real throwbacks. It sucked.
Again, im not aware of a team that actually changed colors for their helmets so im not sure how much being cheap had to do with it as just changing the stickerz and bumper logos

I believe the word you were looking for there was cheap.
The design process that went into the 94 jerseys was a league wide mandate that, at its time, was the 1st of its kind. Before then only one offs in different sports like the white sox in 1991 had messed with throwbacks. Seems crazy today, but only a handful of teams even offered the 94 throwbacks for sale at the team store at replica levels and even fewer authentic. The Bills for example offered no retail version of the 94 duds. There were a few extras for players that were auctioned off or available via team channels for employees but nothing for the people. Let that sink in for a sec how foregin that is by todays standards. Not one, but TWO alt jerseys were worn and not even available to the public for sale. Anywho, it obviously started a trend and now days even though these jerseys have been reproduced over the years with various degrees of accuracy the 75th patch jerseys have become cult classics and often the most popluar Mitchell Ness fb jerseys made and they often sell out the run.
Fun fact. Original merch from 1994 has a hidden word HAY in the 7. Its stitched red and slightly raised, but its an excellent was to tell if aomething is original from 94 or a reproduction

Keep in mind we still have 5 non 1pm games to wear them. They were made optional this year, but id assume you'll see them under the lights.
Worth noting, they did have some reds being clearenced out so i originally wondered this as well, but after looking into it further it was the 100th NFL season neck logo - hence the clearence. Good bet you'll see them over the last 5 weeks.

Division games are always tough.
It seems both teams decided this was going to be a knock down drag out old school game of football before the ball was even rolled out there today.
What killed me however was the Davis drop.
The points and the control hurt - but it makes such a huge difference in having to read some of the garbage takes on here. If davis catches that, its another offensive TD, 4 more points, and the last drive has a totally different feel/goal. It was the difference in putting it out of reach or at least being in control and having to listen to a certian crowd whine about how we should have crushed them. My god, any win over the Pats is great. Should it have been by more? Under perfect circumstances yes. But a lot about today wasnt perfect. Context is important. IMO, THAT is why the Davis drop sucked...

1st page wahooo!!! I hope the Bills win tomorrow. This thread may get out of hand otherwise. That said. Maybe a good conspiracy theory will help take the mind off a loss. In the end, id imagine Bills wise itll be much ado about nothing

Do you understand how football works?! Respectfully, this is the same as saying lets pay our kick returner QB1 money and wondering why the results arent the same...
