Away Games You Plan To Attend
BrotherChazz replied to The Real Buffalo Joe's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I go to at least one away game a year. I'll be at the Ravens and Vikings game for sure...and I sure would love to find a way to get to Lambeau, but being the week after the Vikings game, it's doubtful. U.S. Bank Stadium will be NFL stadium #15 for me. -
I just purchased Stub Hub tickets for the Vikings game earlier this afternoon.

5 Way-too-Early picks from CBS

The Tank is on! Again! -
I always loved the Buffalo statues I passed on my way to home games before I moved. I think you could see them from 90.

Game that shows his ceiling: The first half of Wyoming's bowl game win over Central Michigan showcased why Allen was the No. 7 overall pick and reminded us that he has the highest upside of any quarterback in the 2018 class. I'm talking about the natural tools at the position. Just look at the skinny post Allen throws in a tight window down the field (check out the video clip below). Play-pass with a quick climb in the pocket, and then deliver an absolute laser for the score. That's a throw only Allen could make when compared to the rest of these quarterbacks. He also showcased his athleticism on an ad-libbed red zone touchdown pass and followed that with a perfect deep ball throw for another score. Take a shot, and let it go. With a 6-foot-5, 237-pound frame, mobility and tremendous arm strength that absolutely pops on the tape, Allen has an enormous ceiling as a pro -- if he keeps developing. play 0:40 Allen shows off NFL arm with TD strike Wyoming's Josh Allen drops back and zips a strike to Jared Scott for the 23-yard score to go up 7-0. Game that shows his floor: Allen's two games last season against Power 5 competition -- at Iowa and vs. Oregon -- stand out because of the negative habits that appear on tape. In both of those losses, Allen struggled to find any consistency, and his accuracy suffered. He also needs to work on developing a changeup to put more touch on throws to complement that elite velocity in his arm. This is a raw player who has a tendency to sail the ball and miss with poor placement due to his footwork. That will lead to interceptions in the NFL. As I said above, the natural tools are there. In games against tougher competition, however, Allen created more question as to when or if he will reach his ceiling. Allen's best trait: Arm talent. There's no question here. That strong arm will allow Allen to challenge NFL defenses in the vertical passing game and attack tighter windows on intermediate throws. Plus, playing in Buffalo, Allen has the juice to cut the ball through the wind, rain, sleet, ice and snow coming off Lake Erie. Where Allen must improve: Consistent accuracy. Allen has to take major steps in his accuracy to be a successful pro quarterback. It's that simple. He completed just 56.3 percent of his passes in 2017, which was only a slight increase from 56 percent in 2016. There's some work to do for Allen and the Bills here. Tip for Bills offensive coordinator Brian Daboll: When Allen's feet are set, he can flat-out rip the ball and put it on target. Too often, though, Allen leans on his arm talent. Daboll and his staff must focus on Allen's footwork for the rookie to progress as a more accurate thrower in a system that can be catered to maximize his ability. Mix in pro and spread concepts that showcase Allen's movement skills, along with his ability to expose the top of secondaries off play-action.

The Bleacher Report did an article about the best kept secrets in the NFL. After slamming the Bills, the authors names Jordan Poyer as under-appreciated. http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2776881-the-best-kept-secret-on-every-nfl-roster?utm_source=cnn.com&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=editorial#slide4 It's difficult to find a hidden gem in Buffalo. Their top players are either paid to be top players or were high draft picks. There isn't a Day 3 pick who emerged as a homegrown rookie contract stud on this Bills roster. A player who is underappreciated, though, is safety Jordan Poyer. Like fellow safety Micah Hyde, Poyer signed a free-agent contract with Buffalo last offseason. After he posted just 10 starts, two interceptions and six pass deflections in four seasons in Cleveland, Poyer's first year in Buffalo included career highs of 15 starts, five interceptions and 13 pass deflections. Poyer, Hyde and Tre'Davious White, a first-round rookie cornerback, gave the Bills secondary a facelift in 2017. Poyer's contribution to that trio should not be overlooked.

Take A Minute to Appreciate This Forum
BrotherChazz replied to Shaw66's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I literally LOL every time people here slam the BBMB. Without it shutting down, this place doesn't have half the traffic. Not complaining, but lets be honest here people... And I agree with Shaw's point. This place is the best spot we have to talk Bills. -
New England Patriots They trade Danny Etling to a QB needy team before week 6 because said team assumes he must be good if the Pats drafted him. Said team bombs, and NE gets the first pick.

Good luck in retirement Peter King

The MMQB will continue, and King will continue to write a Monday column, albeit under a different name for NBC. -

Anybody else mad about our draft hats?

I actually liked the hats. First time I ever considered buying a Draft Day hat. -

BrotherChazz replied to 26CornerBlitz's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Funny, I've been in DC for going on 9 years now, and my wife and I just had a conversation yesterday about wether we consider this home. I do, she doesn't (6 years for her). I think it's just the transient nature of DC. The "We" here are those that were born and raised. -

Would like to see Bills on Hard Knocks
BrotherChazz replied to SteveFreeman22's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Of course I want to see it because I want to see our team more...but I doubt McDermott would want it. -

Fair assessment. Both QB's offer many more questions than answers at this point. -

RD1, Pick 7: Josh Allen QB - Wyoming
BrotherChazz replied to SDS's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Fans have enough trouble agreeing on if a player is any good AFTER he plays, let along before he even puts on a uniform. It's all silly. -
