  1. Question for people that want to attend games in person: Would you enjoy going to a game with 10,000 people and strict mask/social distancing enforcement? Even if you're not concerned about catching or spreading this virus, does that sound like a fun time? I'd rather stay at home and watch on TV than get some faux fan experience in person
  2. Pretty in depth article https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2019/10/the-disturbing-saga-of-robert-kraft II. THE SEX RING On February 19, after staging dramatic raids on nearly a dozen massage parlors in South Florida, Sheriff William Snyder held a press conference. Local officers, he announced, working alongside Immigration and Customs Enforcement and the Department of Homeland Security, had busted a $20 million sex trafficking ring with tentacular reach to New York and China. Many of the women, he said, had been tricked into coming to the United States and had been working to pay off debts to traffickers before being rescued. “I don’t believe they were told they were going to work in massage parlors seven days a week, having unprotected sex with up to 1,000 men a year,” Snyder said.
  3. I doubt the sex slaves that were being forced to work there against their will view it as a waste of taxpayer dollars.
  4. The article was a bit light on details, but I don't see how this video was tossed out. Maybe it's a procedural thing. Did the police mess up the paperwork for the warrant to setup video surveillance?
  5. Why is this a make or break year for Allen? Simply put, because of the salary cap and rookie QB contracts. If a QB can't play at an elite level by years 3 or 4 of a rookie contract, when their team has ~25m+ to spend on the rest of the roster, they will never be able to play at an elite level. It's irrelevant if QBs 20+ years ago took longer to develop (I've seen a few people mention Brees, the Mannings, or Kelly). The game has evolved dramatically since then. The NFL changed rookie contracts in 2011 and there hasn't been a single QB drafted in the 1st round after that point that took more than a few years to develop. The only possible name is Ryan Tannehill, and I think his 2019 season was more a result of being in the perfect team situation combined with a small sample size.
  6. Just look at the Tre White thread. And he was only considering opting out prior to the season starting, not in the middle of a playoff series.
  7. Easily the worst in game decision I've ever seen a Bills coach make. You have a 4th and 1 on the opponents 41 yard line, with 4 minutes left in OT, in a game with extreme weather conditions, and a tie severely reduces your playoff chances. Punting there was unbelievably dumb, but a lot of people forget/forgive it because we ended up winning. This is also the guy that decided to start Nathan Peterman when we were in the midst of the playoff race (week 11 vs Chargers), and went into the next season with Peterman as his #1 QB.
  8. There's not much of a downside. There's the "what if" scenarios. What if the team doesn't meet expectations this year? What if our suddenly cost conscious owners won't fire him and eat that cost? What if we could've been better with a different coach? I don't see much of an upside to extending him with 2 years left either. I suppose if we win the SB maybe we locked him in at a lower price and saved $$
  9. I was going to go with Marv Lewis. Good defensive coach, but question marks on offense. Good enough to make the playoffs, but not good enough to win in the playoffs. Lewis also brought a once joke of a franchise to respectability.
  10. Sean Mcdermott with the remaining 2 years left on his original contract. If we're SB contenders this season you can give him the mega extension after the season is over
  11. Why are we rushing into an extension when he still had 2 years left on his first contract? His the best coach we've had since at least Wade, but all he's shown so far is that he can take average teams to a first round playoff exit. I would've waited at least 1 more year before extending.
  12. I guess I'm a pessimist, but I'm not happy with this decision. I think he's a fairly average coach. The 2017 Bills were a very mediocre team that finished 9-7 and made the playoffs only through the grace of god. The 2019 Bills were a bit better, but finished 10-6 with an insanely easy schedule. The team is trending in the right direction, but if we don't take that next step I think we'll regret this decision.
  13. Amen to that. I think some of the push for people to get back in the office is from managers that don't do very much work. Pre-COVID they would spend most of their days chatting with people about nothing or scheduling hour long meetings that could've been a 30 second email. Now that they are WFH they have about an hour of work per day and assume everyone else is doing as little work as they are. They feel the need to be in the office to be productive because what they were doing in the office wasn't actually "productive".
  14. Can anyone cite an injury to a professional QB from throwing the ball as far as they can? I can believe average Joe 6 pack throwing out his rotator cuff trying to throw a football. I can't believe an NFL level professional athlete throwing out his rotator cuff by throwing a football. I think it would be a cool competition to have if they are raising $$ for charity
  15. Star has been a pretty awful contract from day 1. Pushing it out another year is not going to improve matters. Maybe we can re-structure the already re-structured contract next year ?
  16. I voted that it will happen on time, but my opinion could change really quickly. A lot will come down to the other sports leagues that are completing or starting their seasons in the next week. The rest will come down to how many players get sick and if there's a major outbreak among players.
  17. How many times has a professional QB injured themselves by trying to throw it as far as they can (contest or otherwise)? There's an awful lot of talk in here about injuries when it seems like a very low chance of happening.
  18. There's a teeny tiny bit of a difference between playing grab ass with your significant other vs playing grab ass with a co-worker.
  19. Here's the highlights New female hires were warned by other women to avoid a certain glass staircase in the building (men would hang out at the bottom to look up skirts) Women were repeatedly told to wear tighter/more revealing outfits (to increase sales) Women were hit on repeatedly after saying no None of the women had complaints directly about Snyder, but did say that he made a male executive do cartwheels for entertainment (as the guy used to be a male cheerleader in college). Inappropriate comments like "she has an ass like a wagon" or "nice, tight body" that sort of thing Actual texts: One message had a male executive referencing an inside joke about a woman, when she asked about he said they had a bet going as to whether or not her boobs were natural or surgically enhanced. Another message a guy was going to pick up a pizza for a woman....if she slept with him.
  20. Define "no history of success" The Redskins have 3 more Superbowl victories than we do....
  21. Honestly I'd be more scared of Tyrod Taylor than Cam as QB for the Pats.
  22. I couldn't care less what he preaches, I'm looking at what he does during games. I don't see a coach that has evolved over the last 3 years.
  23. I think under official TBD rules you owe me a coke
  24. Is that true? Kneeling in general is a sign of respect/contemplation. Before Kaep I cannot recall anyone kneeling for anthems (let alone it being a slight to the country).
  25. Twitter outrage getting those results ? Twitter is a plague on society
