  1. I've been trying to think of a comp that we could hope to compare K. Coleman to.  What do you guys think of Brandon Marshall as a comparison?  He had a very good career, his stats surprised me.  He's 24th in all-time yardage.  Not bad for a 4th round pick.  Look at the physical similarities (yes I know Coleman is a little lite):

    Jerry Rice ran a 4.71 40. He was so ***** terrible. League must've felt bad for the 49ers and let them win those SBs. How does Bill Walsh get in the HoF with such a stupid draft pick? Didn't he know slow receivers like Jerry Rice are terrible? 2BD needs to build a time machine to prevent 49ers from tarnishing their great dynasty with drafting that slow loser. 

     

    And don't get me started on the other slow pokes in Emmitt Smith and Frank Gore. When will NFL GMs learn that 40 times are way more important than on-field ability, winning super bowls or even personal accolades and records. If Smith and Rice could only move faster, the Cowboys and 49ers would've had at least 20 more superbowls.

     

    We are doooooooooooomed!

    You forgot to include SB winner and borderline HOFer Anquan Bolden.  What a reach for the Cardinals in the second round.

    I'm not too sure he loves the Eagles. However he was raised in Pennsylvania and went to Penn St.   On Draft night,he wanted the Cowboys to draft him.  Fast forward he's frustrated because of what a mess the Cowboys organization has become.

     

    He's been hanging with Eagles players, going to 76ers games.  I think he's let it be known that he loves the east coast and Eagles fans.  It's all they're talking about on the radio here.  Possibly his agent is guiding him on how to get the biggest pile of cash that he can.  I can't see Dallas letting him go.  

  5. I don't live in the area anymore, but have family still in the WNY area.  My brother works security for the home games as fun side gig.  He loves interacting with the fans, and the environment.  Now he feels obligated to work the game because he knows they'll be short staffed.  He's ex-military (Marine), a good dude and a person of principle.  A trip back to Rochester in that weather as most of you know, is no joke.  Maybe I'm jaded, but at a minimum the part-time rank and file staff that make game-day happen should taken care of!  Would hazard compensation, or time and half be too much to ask for?  I can't get this out of my head.  The fact these organizations are willing to risk their employees safety/well being to keep their production on schedule, and not acknowledge peoples sacrifice is crazy.  For somewhere around $15 as an average hourly rate, the organization and league should be embarrassed.  

     

    Sorry for the rant.  I guess this is just emblematic of society and business today. 

     

    Bills...Do the right thing!  Compensate these people for going above and beyond!!!

     

    Stay safe up there.

  6. The way McDermott and the coaching staff have come up with new agonizing ways to ***** defeat from victory, has left me apathetic, as well.

  7. “Sean, a pattern has emerged the past couple of seasons.  In high pressure situations in the final couple of minutes of the 4th quarter, or OT, when the team has the opportunity to solidify a win,  the team is consistently on the losing end.  With having the luxury of hindsight, and a number game determining scenarios to reflect upon over the past 18 months, what has been an area of growth, or improvement you’ve identified to help rectify this teams shortcomings at the end of 1 score games?”

     

    If I was allowed to ask a follow up question. 

     

    I’d have all the stats to back up what I’m saying, and wouldn’t let it go until an answer was given on what they were doing to improve. Mistakes happen, we all grow from them.  We all adapt and change professionally, and personally.  How are we getting better at what we do?  Every year I have to change the way I’m doing business to make sure I’m still relevant, and helping ppl solve problems.  What growth have we seen with this team over the past 24 months?

  8. With how he coached in that playoff game a couple of years ago against the Bills, no thank you.  He made a number of head scratching calls and played a key role in that defeat.  I saw that game as more of Indianapolis losing, than the Bills winning.  To those that stated he's the offensive version of McDermott, that seems to be a pretty good comparison.

    mentally weak team  with a defense that plays scared at end of games. Eagles easily moved down the field in OT. 13 second game ruined this team. Can't close out games

     

    13 seconds ruined McDermott, or exposed what he'll always be.  I'm baffled at this staffs continued approach of playing not to lose.  They have no killer instinct.  The OT record and history of coming up small in one score games has to be topic of concern moving forward if you're the owner right?  If we've been seeing it for years, they can't continue to bury their head in the sand.  This team peaked 3 years ago, a change in philosophy is needed to save the teams window with Allen.  I've never seen a team in one season be so close to having one of the top records, or one of the worst, based on less than 10 plays.  With the Bills mostly being on the negative side. This team constantly finds new ways to come up small, ironically in similar fashion year to year, week to week.  We all know what problem is.

    I think Buffalo is one of the most rewarding places to play in the NFL and also one of the most difficult. I recall reporters asking Rodgers how he would fair with the New York media and he said Green Bay might not be a big market, but it has a really big spot light.  

     

    I'm curious as to why you'd think Buffalo would be one of the most difficult places to play in the NFL?  Rewarding I get, nice small market feel, good cost of living, you can be part of the community...I don't see difficult.  The media in WNY is not exactly hard hitting.
