I saw a stat today that Cousins is 5-25 against teams that finish with winning records. That’s horrendous. No idea why he would have been voted top 100, his contract maybe?

If I recall correctly Eckeler has been pretty average to below average when thrusted into the starting rule due to a Gordon injury.

I always wait for these to come out and read them through completely. Makes me feel like I’m at Bills camp even though I can’t make it.

This DIRECTV CBS blackout is starting to get annoying. Luckily I had CBS All Access already for the Twilight Zone. I have been watching my CBS shows on there.

The real burning question, who will arrive in a helicopter or armored car with a hype man

This is absolutely true, we could have had them. My only problem is, I really would not trust Whaley to make a decision such as that.

You, good sir, have made me go ?. I shall see myself out ??

Revisionist history is fun, I wanna play. What if we traded that pick to Houston instead of Kansas City ? we could have had 4th overall in the 2018 draft!

It’s sad, but I’m with you. BBFS is alive and well. Extra scary this year the Bills could (should?) start 3-0.

I have that same feeling. There are so many ego’s in that room and a rookie coach to keep it all together. I don’t know if that spells success or disaster.

If by some ridiculous reason Quinnen Williams just didn’t agree with the Jets and was available, I would easily give up two first rounders for him. Josh Allen is the only person in the 2019 draft I would have wanted high other than Williams and Oliver.

Oh excellent! Works well because each was only 20 or so minutes from what I recall.

Has to be that way again. They don’t have any training camp footage from Rochester yet, so they couldn’t release everything at once.

I feel he’s just being petty for no reason. I watched Hard Knocks and sure, Hue sucked as a head coach. Never should have been given the second year. But does Baker assume that’s Hue’s decision to make? It’s not like Hue hired himself. How about just being grateful a team took you first overall. Then, he stares down Hue and trash talks him for going to a “rival team” as if Hue had job offers from 31 teams after being canned from the Browns for being the worst head coach in NFL history. Just a lot of pettiness for no reason.

Reading comprehension I.E the very next sentence after the one you bolded. Also, I consider 2004 to be within the past 15 years ? ?

Yes, he absolutely has. What’s a better offseason that you can remember in the last 15 years than the two Beane has orchestrated? Prior regimes did not give a bunch of draft picks to go and get their guy, they waited and panicked (Losman) or they reached massively (Manuel). Going up and getting their guy would have been giving up whatever it took to get Rothlisberger rather than panicking and getting Losman. By all reports that’s what happened to Arizona last year as well, how did Rosen work out in their minds? The free agent signings, that’s the nature of the free agent game, you overpay for mediocre talent. Beane identified holes and moved to fill them. What past GM’s have done that? I remember being able to sleep through free agency because you knew the Bills were getting bargain bin trash. In addition to that, most of these contracts are crafted so that the Bills can exit relatively painlessly. How was the Dareus contract structured? Don’t we wish Beane was at the helm during that time. In general, the proof is often in the pudding. For my money, Beane has done his job. He has filled holes as best he can and as economically as available. He has drafted well and is not afraid to go up and grab someone he wants. Give me Beane over A LOT of the GM’s in the league right now (Gettlemen running the Giants anyone?). In addition, even if Allen busts and doesn’t improve any further, he is still the most fun QB we have had the pleasure of watching in a long, long time.

Unless there a package deal, if the team regresses this year, I would get rid of McDermott before Beane. This team is fairly well constructed. IMO Beane has done pretty darn good as a GM. It isn’t his job to get the talent to play well, it is his job to get the talent. He has done that.

Madden, while not the best, is light years ahead of their NHL franchise. EA NHL is literally recycled year after year. The best mode they ever had was GM connected and they got rid of it within two years.

Ranking Tre White as the 19th best corner is borderline criminal. Even the biggest Tre hater can probably agree he’s top 10.

Beanie playing 4D Chess, as always

Bell is extremely lucky that his situation worked out as good as it did. If the Jets were not there to outbid themselves in their overpayment then he would have not been paid nearly as much.

Interesting off season for RB’s. Two are seeing the Le’Veon Bell overpay and thinking it’s the new market value. I think they are sorely mistaking.

Belichick. His record with backup QBs speaks for itself.

I love the idea of having an 18 game season with players restricted to 16. It would add another layer of strategy to this amazing game. Do you rest your starting QB the first two games of the season and hope your starter doesn’t get injured? Do you play your backup QB against a team who suffered an injury to their starter? Do you just go all out for the first 16 and hope you have the playoffs locked by week 17?

Their customer service is maddening inconsistent. Even more so since they were acquired by ATT.
