Blank Stare

Fitz’s or Wood’s?

Now that would be something! ? He was wearing all that Bills gear after all.

Are people really debating/criticizing the other driver for calling in Ed’s reckless behavior? Good grief. I’m guessing those criticizing it is because he’s a Bills player and this may impact the season. Football and/or the season mean jack if he would have hit and seriously injured or killed someone. No one should be making excuses for Ed. I’m sure he’s a fine young man, but he made his bed.

McAfee is great on College Game Day. Either it would be an epic success or a beautiful disaster, but ESPN should give serious thought to getting him involved in the revamped MNF broadcast in some way. I don’t know if he has the chops to pull off a two man booth setup, but definitely a 3 man booth if they go back to that format.

Johnson was great depth for us and stepped up when he had to for the most part, but he disappointed me a bit in that playoff game. Playing against his former team on that big stage, I would’ve liked to have seen him play a little better in that moment. Not having Levi healthy impacted the team more than we know.

Damn. He gets that ball to Knox there and he likely scores.

Unless they’re grown men like Tremaine Edmunds or Jadeveon Clowney were, I’m not sure how many players would feel their bodies and minds are ready to take the leap early. I could even see a Trevor Lawrence situation because he hasn’t had anything left to prove at the college level for some time now. But for all we know he enjoys being the top dog on campus. Some do. Not saying a bunch of players wouldn’t/shouldn’t try, but It’s just so different from basketball in many ways.

Even though I’m a sucker for routine and 1 PM games, love the prime time game respect and how they placed them in the calendar. Entire month of December is basically prime time or potential prime time.

Bailed when Kiffin left.

You’re not alone in this and I agree that it definitely seemed worse than it was. The media says it a lot too, so I was also thinking he had a worse year than that. I guess when it’s constant Super Bowls, anything else pales in comparison. I know this is a thread about Stidham, but I don’t think Brady is done physically. Of course he’s not the same as he was, but that offense was bereft of talent last year. I think with all those weapons he now has in Tampa, and as long as Brady, Leftwich, and Arians can come up with game plans that maximize Brady’s abilities with what he can still do well, we’ll see a nice uptick in his stats from last year.

I see no way Stidham puts up Brady’s numbers from last year. 61% comp. percentage, shade over 4,000 yards passing, and 24 TDs against 8 INTs? I’m a big Josh Allen fan, but we’d be doing cartwheels if that was his passing stat line in year 3. It ain’t that easy, no matter what Belichick thinks he can do. Not like their weapons are vastly different from last year. Happy to eat crow if I’m wrong, but I just don’t see it.

Darcel Mareus

First player that came to mind for me was Trent Murphy. He’s got a little prepper/mountain man vibe to him.

I just can’t see Cam ever accepting a back up role. If healthy, is he better than Josh right now? Yeah, probably. Doesn’t mean that will always be the case. Like Orlovsky said, Josh is still ascending. You don’t interrupt that progress until you know for sure he has capped out. Finally, the part that irked me far more than the Cam discussion in that video is the media’s obsession with Sam Darnold. I’m not saying he’s bad, but come on. Darnold has been largely “meh” thus far. He’s not the best in the AFC East. Josh is. Doesn’t mean that will always be true, but he is right now.

I completely agree with you on this point. It’s been long overdue for this. But, like it or not, there’s a lot of wisdom on that call. Guys that have proven/won a lot in this league. Super Bowl or not. No harm in having a conversation with them from time to time.

That’s cold. However, he should only be upset with himself. Not the chargers. Dude passed up a solid deal and got stiffed as a FA.

Rather than driving it, I felt Hauschka lofted a bunch of them this year causing them to drift on him. I think if we had been awarded McLaughlin mid year he was in serious trouble. I think this kid has a shot. That’s all you can really ask for.

Well at least Bleacher Report’s grades were informative and backed up by comprehensive analyses. ??

We cut Fromm, he likely gets scooped up. Just how it works. QBs are of great need and they usually get quite a few opportunities to prove their worth. Especially if he shows anything positive whatsoever in the preseason.

This. Sick of hearing about the weather. This past year was an odd year for home games and the passing game. Seemed like there was wind or elements in most of them. Even in Sept/Oct. I think it kept some of Josh’s numbers down a bit.

Don’t mind it. QBs are important. Barkley only has 1 year left. Need a decent backup to develop behind Josh.

There we go!

People keep saying this, but the feed was delayed and not in sync with the the announcement by Goodell. It’s been happening the entire draft. Now, he may not be thrilled with coming to Buffalo, but I don’t think you can tell that by the feed. He said the right things in his interview, so this is a non-story to me.

What about Daryl Williams or a healthy Nsekhe to push Ford?
