  1. yeah superbowl champs at home arent a good team. Got it. enjoy the win dude
  2. 75% 'absolutely horrified' thats a huge exaggeration. I was hoping they would take Rosen but it didnt take long to see that Allen was the right choice. But that was FOUR years ago dude. I agree with the general sentiment of this thread, Collinsworth acts like Josh is just turning the corner into eliteness and its been years now.
  3. I bet once this year and it was on the Caesars Palace app and they had this sucker promo Clemson win by 14 AND Ohtani hits a homer that same night for a +375 payout. I decided to go for it and told everyone if it hits we are havin Lobster tails at halftime of the Bills game. Sure enough, Clemson easily covers the 14 and Ohtani hits TWO dingers that night. So its tails at the Farrell house for halftime. 12 people.
  4. Taylor and Henry abuse everyone. Overall we did OK against the run last year, the focus is on stopping the strong passing teams by getting more pressures, hurries, disruptions, sacks. When you have a team that scores 30 points a week, it usually forces other teams to have to pass in order to win. I also liked DaQuan Jones he is one strong mfer in there. Bullrush and motor, keeps his head low and seemed really effective in camp, so he should help to keep Settle fresh.
  5. getting any kind of pick for Cody Ford was a win. Araiza was a bad gamble but not many 6th round picks make the team anyway. I respect them for making the right decision despite no criminal charges being filed in a 9 month investigation, it seems like they felt he was guilty of lying to the team in saying that he did nothing wrong. OJ Howard, now THAT was a real blunder. I guess they saw enough tape on him last year to give the dude a shot at redemption, he sure looks the part and was dominant in college, but the stone hands and the mediocre play just wasn't enough and Beaner couldn't rig a trade because the rest of the league seemingly felt his contract was way too much. and they'd be right.
  6. Yeah the glitzy 360 video screen stuff like Jets, raiders, rams is way too in-your-face for me. I hope they keep that to a min
  7. Yeah I dont get that either. Its not like it was necessary to release Haack anyway because of a roster deadline. We will get another punter, there are tons of em.
  8. At training camp this year it really hit me how much Josh deals with off the field in terms of pressure from fans. Not to perform, just for autographs and PR stuff. The practice session concludes, the other players all head to the locker room, and two hundred kids pile down the bleachers and stand there with their stuff for him to sign. Some of the other players like Knox are trying to sign stuff and help him out, but it's pretty obvious that everyone is waiting for 17. Josh his GF and Tanner Gentry and his GF are trying to have a conversation on the empty practice field and there is so much screaming "Josh Josh hey Josh!" He is acknowledging and being polite but the poor guy is just trying to have a 10 minute convo (Jim Kelly was there with them for awhile as well) and you can tell he feels pulled by all the kids but they're trying to talk something over and he's kinda torn, keeps waving over. Then when he finally starts heading to the sidelines it's virtually impossible for him to sign even a quarter of the stuff being waved at him. Kids in wheelchairs that he doesn't even see, just mass hysteria. He handles it really well as you would expect him to, puts in a hard 15-20 minutes, smiling, winking, high fiving, grabbing peoples phones and taking selfies, then he really has no choice but to walk away and disappoint most of the crowd. I'm sure he's used to it, and compared to most athletes we all know Josh is a giving superstar with his time and effort to connect with the fans, but I've never really witnesses THAT much adulation and pressure in an off the field situation for an athlete before. Like no matter how much you give there are always more kids and fans that you skipped over. It struck me that his guy may be the best football player in the world right now, and the extra attention that comes along with it is pretty insane.
  9. You're forgetting Crowder, he is a lock. Kumerow is too for special teams and way more experience than Hodge/Shakir. If you guys went to any of the last 5 camp sessions then you saw Crowder ball out. He's gonna be Mr 3rd down from the slot this year. Unless we keep 7 WR, Hodge goes to PS.
  10. For the training camp sessions I saw, Crowder stood out. Caught everything, great separation and very fast upfield for good YAC. Gotta remember he was rehabbing for most of camp. The Colts drop was unfortunate but I think he will be an impact guy this year for us on 3rd downs.
  11. I think Keenum could get picked up off the PS if we put him there, and Barkley won't. We want them both in the QB room so I'm guessing you will see Keenum on the 53 and Barkley PS. There are a lot of snaps in the preseason ahead of us, so that might change, but I doubt it.
  12. My son unexpectedly came home, we are hoping to get a pair of tix to see training camp tmrw or thrs Aug 10th Will throw you a few bucks for em! thanks. Kevin Farrell 585-734-1255
  13. BB is a really good DEFENSIVE coach and overall game coach, but I dont think he's a good leader, motivator, team builder or offensive coach. The word you hear a lot from ex players is 'unrelatable' which is a nice way of saying the dude's a weenie. Dimes are perfect throws, he put too much air under that ball. insane pick tho. knifed in between two speedy NFL guys while they were going full tilt and somehow barely touched either dude. An all time highlight and massive game changer/tone setter for that game.
  14. There are many who strongly disagree with you, they feel that everyone should stand as a sign of respect to the flag. Kap used to sit on the bench for the anthem, then he switched to the kneeling which I think was a better move. I have interest in his tryout for the NFL because I felt the narrative that Kap was some elite player that got his career ended short because he chose to protest is simply not true. The majority of non-football fans believe the guy sacrificed his career for some greater good, when the reality is the guy was a backup QB on his way out of football. Then he took a huge check from Nike and they ran ads that said Believe in Something, Even if it Means Sacrificing Everything, and the lie got pushed even further. At that point, I felt there was no chance this guy would ever try to make another NFL roster because it will reveal that he's simply not very good, and he didn't really sacrifice ANYTHING. In fact, he likely made more money from the kneeling that he would have if he tried to stay in the league and hold a clipboard for a few more years. Nike should run a new Kaep ad that says Believe in Something, Especially if it Makes you Rich..... I really respect the guy for actually trying to play again, even though we all know what the result was going to be.
  15. Well we definitely win that KC game that's for damn sure. Strange that after all the great work McD does as a HC, the guys ONE apparent weakness is game calling with everything on the line.
  16. I like the Dinosaur Wango Tango wings over all else. They're slow cooked so you don't get the sinewy stuff from the fried wings, it's almost fall off the bone but the skin keeps in the meat. After a long smoke w dry rub they throw them on the grill and sauce em when you order. All the fat is rendered off during the slow cook and the wings are big and meaty. We have done blind taste tests with Dino wings and they win every time.
  17. I feel like elite QB's generally move the ball regardless of who their receivers are, and having a top offense scoring 30+pts per game and 4 proven NFL receivers on the roster in Diggs, Gabe, Mckenzie and Crowder, that drafting a WR5 in the 1st round seems misguided. This is our superbowl run season, not drafting for depth. We need guys that can impact our games immediately, and that starts with being good enough to beat out the guy ahead of you on the depth chart in camp. I can't help but think the clearest path to having a rookie starter is CB. A physical, fast intelligent CB that can play zone and man, good in run support and proven against top level offenses in college. It's possible a RB could also have an instant impact as well but WR seems more like a Whaley move to me.
  18. Bills coaches agree and gave the kid over 500 snaps this year which is what he needs again next year. After a few seasons and 1000 NFL snaps I'd say you pretty much know what you have at that point.
  19. I don't think Chan Gailey was a bad coach at all. One of our best game callers for sure. He and Fitz, Stevie, they had some pretty good showings.
  20. No kids yet but I can imagine once you have little ones that being a HC would suck for your wife n kids. Football is awesome and careers can be great but too much stress is pure evil and your window to be a parent is pretty small. He'd be the first one ever to be that young, get a ring and then bow out.
  21. I remember him as the dude who went to like 7 superbowls. which is probably why the russians wanted him.....
  22. This one is up to Star more than it is the team. If he busts his a$$ and shows up to camp in great shape and wins a roster spot in 6 months, you now have an experienced guy in the middle in your rotation for a very low cap hit. If he's mentally or physically done he either retires or it become obvious to the coaches this summer and he is released. Would only cost maybe a roster bonus, something minor.. I see no downside to letting him try out for the team again, unless the cap was so tight his $1.5M hit would be the difference between signing a free agent guy or not.
  23. Wallace was technically covering him but he got a free release and Milano was way too deep and out of position to help. The best TE in the league basically untouched and wide open on the biggest play of the season. Both our All pro safeties so far deep they may as well have been on the bench.
  24. Put simply, the Giants are a sinking ship. Daboll missed out on his dream job w the Chargers (Staley over Daboll will go down as a legendary whiff by that franchise) and the guy got an offer from a GM he knows for a HC job so he took it, but they are still going to suck. Jones has played 3 seasons in the league and he's done OK. Turnovers were his biggest challenge and he was 10 TD's on 7 picks before his injury which is WAY better than his 1st two years. Throws a decent deep ball too, but overall he's just a guy, and we know all too well how that one ends.
  25. Josh Rosen rookie card. free with any purchase of a happy meal.
