I say this because of this video of Poyer (first few seconds), where he taunts the Dallas fans: -

Who the f is Rachel Bush? And good riddance to Poyer, as he is not a process guy. -
Bills sign 10 players to reserve/future contracts
class_of_2012 replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
As was said in a previous post, this is a weakness of McD. He is reluctant to let go of guys he drafted or who were on the Panthers who suck: Jones, Peterman, Benjamin, Lotuleilei, etc. -
Bills Home opener 2020 opponent?
class_of_2012 replied to Just Jack's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Buffalo getting a Sunday nighter early in be season is too risky. The NFL would want it later in the season to be able to flex us out if we suck. -
Memo to Brandon Beane you NEED WRs

Greene will be 32 next season. Plus after spending all those years losing with Cincinnati, do you think he will come here? -
Hauschka - made 19 out of his last 20 kicks

Hauschka = House Money, period. -
How long would the FG have been from in OT?
class_of_2012 replied to RosenNOTchosen1's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
56 yards. On 3rd and 9 JA was pushed out of bounds at the Houston 38. https://www.espn.com/nfl/playbyplay?gameId=401131037 -
It was late in the 4th quarter and Josh took an inexcusable sack on 3rd down. Then he took another sack on 4th down. Why didn't we kick the FG instead, since House Money had made one from that distance pre-game, or at least punt, since we had three time outs? It was like 4th and 23 when we went for it. The announcer said something about Sean McDermott knowing something about his kicker.

https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/28370100/barnwell-2019-nfl-awards-ballot-picks-mvp-best-rookies-more Executive of the Year: 1. Brandon Beane (Bills) 2. Eric DeCost (Ravens) 3. John Lynch (49ers) Coach of the Year: 1. John Harbaugh (Ravens) 2. Sean Payton (Saints) 3. Bill Belichick (Patriots) Defensive Rookie of the Year: 1. Nick Bosa (DE, 49ers) 2. Josh Allen (DE, Jaguars) 3. Devin Bush (ILB, Steelers) Offensive Rookie of the Year: 1. A.J. Brown (WR, Titans) 2. Kyler Murray (QB, Cardinals) 3. Josh Jacobs (RB, Raiders) Defensive Player of the Year: 1. Stephon Gillmore (CB, Patriots) 2. Aaron Donald (DT, Rams) 3. Minkah Fitzpatrick (S, Steelers) Offensive Player of the Year: 1. Michael Thomas (WR, Saints) 2. Christian McCaffrey (RB, Panthers) 3. George Kittle (TE, 49ers) MVP: 1. Lamar Jackson (QB, Ravens) 2. Russell Wilson (QB, Seahawks) 3. Patrick Mahomes (QB, Chiefs) But San Francisco 49ers reporter Eric Ting objected strongly, writing this: https://www.sfgate.com/49ers/article/season-award-list-snubs-Kyle-Shanahan-Nick-Bosa-14934551.php [short excerpt] "Barnwell limits this category to moves made in 2019, and John Lynch had an incredible 2019 as far as player acquisition goes. Nick Bosa, Deebo Samuel, Dee Ford, Emmanuel Sanders, Kwon Alexander and Tevin Coleman were not in Santa Clara in 2018, and all played significant roles in the team's remarkable turnaround. According to Barnwell however, Lynch had just the third-best offseason in the NFL. Ahead of Lynch was Eric DeCosta of the Baltimore Ravens, who installed Greg Roman as offensive coordinator, and brought in Mark Ingram, Earl Thomas, Marquise Brown and Marcus Peters. Fair enough, but Ravens fans and 49ers fans would both be annoyed to learn that Barnwell gave the top spot in this category to Brandon Beane of the Buffalo Bills. Barnwell gushes over the Bills' 2019 draft class that includes of Ed Oliver, Cody Ford (whom Barnwell concedes has "struggled a bit" this season), Devin Singletary, and Dawson Knox. Barnwell also cites the low-cost signings of Cole Beasley and and John Brown at receiver, as well as other under-the-radar moves at offensive line. Beane had a nice offseason to propel Buffalo back into the playoffs, but it's hard to say the work he did in 2019 was more impressive than the heavy lifting undertaken by Lynch and DeCosta, especially as a large portion of the Bills' core (Josh Allen, Tre'Davious White, Tremaine Edmunds, etc.) was already in place prior to 2019."

Where were you during "wide right"?
class_of_2012 replied to class_of_2012's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Well those yards Thurman had were combined rushing and receiving, as were Anderson's. -

Yep, Thurman had more yards that game than OJ Anderson, but it was Anderson who won MVP. Still upsets me to this day. -

The Bills were 7-1 vs. the NFC East in the SB years in the regular season. They only lost to Washington in the last week of the 1990 season in a meaningless game, to finish 13-3. The Bills owned the NFC East during those years. -

This was the best SB for the Bills; the others left me very depressed. Although I was thrilled at half-time in SB XXVIII when the Bills led Dallas. -

I also was thinking Norwood wouldn't make it. Anything over 40-45 yards for him was difficult. I also didn't realize there were attempts on Ford's life. I was too young at the time. -

At least you were there, but Giant fans are very arrogant. I had to deal with a lot of students from NYC while at the University of Rochester. People from that atra loved sending their kids to a private upstate NY university. The students from there even wanted to watch the CBS (NFC) pre-game show (Greg Gumbel) instead of the NBC one, which was preferred by Bills fans (Bob Costas!!). We told them Rochester was Bills territory. Also, Thurman had written "Tampa" on his cleats at the beginning of the season, to signify that was the team goal. Doesn't remind me of them, but all Bills fans know where they were during wide right. That was my point. -

Wow... that is good he didn't go ballistic when you made the hole, and took it all in stride. -
Wide right during the Super Bowl XXV in January 1991 is kind of like the Kennedy assassination, 9/11, the assassination attempt of Reagan, or the Challenger explosion: everyone remembers where they were when it happened. For me, I was working as a student employee at the dining hall at the University of Rochester. They had the game on a big screen TV there, but I couldn't really watch since I was cleaning tables. I did take a few seconds to watch when Norwood made the attempt. I would have celebrated big time that night, but it wasn't to be. So where were you: at home, at school, at a bar, at a friend or relative's house??

He was nominated for the Centennial class as a coach, but he played for the Bills as a QB in the late 60's. He is only one of two [not three, like I originally posted] people to have won a SB as a player, assistant coach, and head coach. Enshrinees will be selected January 8. Let's go Tom! https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/28335154/bill-cowher-jimmy-johnson-38-finalists-pro-football-hall-fame-centennial-class
