Bob Chandler's Hands

Other than the risk of high mercury content I don't....oh, wait, you said Tua? OK then in that case, No, I don't fear Tua.

The OP approached this like a politician...half truths at best. Printing only the negative portion of a much longer generally very positive assessment without including the link is deceptive. What's funny is I don't disagree with where he's going with the point being made about Edmunds. But the 'sleaziness' of presenting it this way turns people off to his argument when a few additional words clarifying these were the negatives only, and including the link, would have gone further towards perception of the validity of his opinion.

Not even close. I'll take the former over the latter.

His wife AND his girlfriend go by "Smoke"? That's crazy.

Which is exactly what a "cover-up" looks like. So, no.

Thanks for pointing this out....I have the same thing!

Consider it an honor.

Not until the OP posed the question. Then I thought to myself, "Yeah, he's probably going to work out."

Jeff Miers wrote the ultimate letter to Bon Jovi back in 2014 (from the Buffalo News): Dear Jon Bon Jovi: Recently, there has been a lot of speculation in the community surrounding the possible scenarios that might unfold should you choose to ride into Buffalo – on your steel horse, naturally – and purchase our beloved Buffalo Bills. Until now, I have not said anything publicly out of respect for the fact that, when it comes to sports, no one really cares what I think. However, there has indeed been bountiful conjecture on the topic of your potential plans, so I think it’s important that I clarify my feelings on this oh-so-hot topic, as a Western New Yorker who wasn’t born here, but actually chose to live here. As such a citizen, I was given the Bills as part of my “Welcome Basket,” whether I wanted them or not. As it turned out, after a short while, those being the Jim Kelly years, I wanted them. So, apparently, do you. Which raises some issues regarding your intentions. We, as guardians of the Bills, the proverbial prying parental units, have questions, naturally. Will you have them home at a respectable hour? What kind of a guy are you? Can we trust you with our beloved? Who will be doing the driving? Will responsible adults be present? And hey, man, who cuts your hair? Finally, and most importantly – Will you be planning on crossing the border during your “date”? ’Cause, I’ve gotta tell you, Jon, that would be a deal-breaker. Prom night will be ruined, if that’s what you’re thinking. Take your corsage, your high school quarterback good looks, your six-string and head on back to New Jersey. Speaking of Jersey, we understand that that’s where you’re from. We understand this because you’ve been harping about it for decades. You’ve harped about it almost as often as you’ve jumped on stage with a guy named Bruce Springsteen, who, we understand, is also from New Jersey. You of all people, then, should know that this Bills’ thing would not go over well here. As a Jersey guy, a guy who always will be compared to the original Jersey rock star, you should understand Buffalo. You know what it means to be made to feel inferior, to be thought of as second-best. But then I always found this attempted appropriation of the Springsteen common-man ethic a little bit suspect. It seems like you’re trying to be something you’re not. What song of yours would make us believe that you are the real thing, that you “get” Buffalo? Is it “Have A Nice Day,” perhaps? As far as paeans to the real struggles of working people in abandoned industrial towns not unlike the one in which you are now attempting to buy a football team, that one doesn’t exactly rank up there with Springsteen’s “Youngstown,” “My City of Ruins,” or even “Atlantic City,” does it? Is it your mega-hit “Livin’ On A Prayer,” with its blatant attempts to marry John Cafferty & the Beaver Brown Band to late 1980s hair metal? Doubtful. Maybe it’s your poetic lyrics offering insight into the indomitability of the human spirit, particularly among the forgotten and forlorn classes who would love to form the core of the American labor base if they were ever actually offered the chance, but instead spend most of their disposable income supporting football teams made up of multimillionaire athletes? Lyrics like “I’ve seen a million faces, and I’ve rocked them all”? That can’t be the one. One of the million faces you’ve seen repeatedly over the years has been mine, and I have to tell you, I didn’t like it much when you “rocked my face.” It didn’t feel like a shared, communal experience. It felt more like a night out at a sports bar in a strip mall, drinking warm Coors Light and listening to an elegantly coiffed cover band play a set of – er, Bon Jovi tunes. I’m sorry, Jon. I know we have a long relationship. You’ve been playing our sports arenas for decades, and you have always been greeted with screams of adulation. But we feel like our relationship has gotten a bit stale. We have grown older. And you have grown colder. And nothing is very much fun anymore. After all this time we’ve spent together, I feel you are at least owed honesty. So here’s the cold, hard truth, Jon: I think we should start seeing other people.

No kidding right? A real self-made man.

Awesome Burn Notice reference.

This is accurate. If the Bills lose 2 from category 1 (which happens, it's the NFL), 2 from category 2, and lose to the Chiefs, they go 11-5. To me this seems reasonable and it means that between 10-6 and 12-4 covers probably 75-80% of likely outcomes. 9-7 and 13-3 are both possible, but more like 1 in 10 chance of happening either way. But this is why they play the games...

I hope you are right about the run defense being fixable. For Edmunds, those struggles were 2 years ago as a rookie. Those excuses are gone. Maybe the shoulder was bothering him? Regardless, he needs to play much better.

Plus a defensive score. Although Kelly did throw for 300 as well.

TJ Yeldon, not Wade.

Holy Conflict of Interest Batman!

I noticed NBC shows the PFF ratings in their broadcast. Legitimizing this nonsense...

Aside from the incentives anyone might have for taking actions to avoid contracting the virus, players and coaches in the NFL have additional very strong incentive. No one wants to miss 2-3 weeks of the season due to testing positive, let alone give it to teammates and severely hurt the team. My hope is they are all taking it to heart and being very careful.

Ugh. I brain-cramped. I was thinking you were referring to Taron Johnson!

But he basically is a starter at the slot CB. I think his small space quickness and toughness on slot receiver types is more valuable there. Maybe later in his career he could slide to safety.

Terrence McGee...maybe before your time.

I was sitting in the endzone section, scoreboard end for that one and remember Jimbo being carted off and thinking "well, that's it.". And it was.

Agreed. I chose my words poorly. I was simply reacting to his rudeness.
