  1. If we're not up by 4 scores at halftime I'm heading for the bridge.
  2. Exactly what defensive assets should we trade to get him?
  3. I guess 15 minutes wasn't enough for everyone to learn his actual name.
  4. After yesterday, Schwartz might get the key to the city. I want him as our HC
  5. No, it's what I suggested.
  6. How many times have we seen the Bills take some mediocre player and make him look like a hall of famer? Once we did it to the entire Steelers bench.
  7. I'm 71 and I've been doing this dance for 60 years. Now THAT'S depressing.
  8. No, just be careful what you wish for. Getting rid of Beane doesn't guarantee you a better result, it guarantees you a Terry Pegula hire. Remember Russ Brandon?
  9. The big problem with this entire discussion is if you ding either of Beane and McDermott, their replacements will be hired by the people who brought you Rex Ryan and the Sabres front office / coaching staff.
  10. They should trade for Flacco
  11. If the batter is wearing armor, he shouldn't get a free base if he gets hit on the armor Why not just make everyone eligible? When we played football in the neighborhood we didn't have "eligibles" and "ineligibles" and it worked out just fine.
  12. You didn't answer the "who cares" part or why it's a penalty.
  13. It means the Bills would be a lock for the Superbowl if Fitz was still our QB. Or something like that.
  14. (written when the Jags are safely down 3 scores)
  15. Who cares if the wide receiver covers up the tight end? Why is this a penalty?
  16. It is - I think I need hearing aids.
  17. I agree totally. Not only should taunting not be penalized, it should be encouraged. This could be the equivalent of fighting in hockey.
  18. 6. A 5 yard penalty and a 15 yard penalty should NOT offset. Just net the yardage, 15-5=10. **** What a great bye week distraction, especially after two horrid losses.
  19. I think it used to be 15 yards so there's been some progress over the decades...
  20. I've seen this proposed before, sort of like a football version of a 3 point shot. I think it should be the other way around, there should be MORE points for a short FG, to reward you for driving deeper into enemy territory. If you only got 2 points for 50+, for instance, It would put more pressure on the offensive team that is driving for a FG at the end of the game to tie or win, they'd have to get down to the 30 or so to get 3 points.
  21. Nope, I won my game this week because the other guy was playing Josh Allen at QB.
  22. ALSO: 4. (I almost forgot about this one) - Incomplete pass or stepping out of bounds stops the clock but the clock restarts when the ball is placed at the line of scrimmage. Not in the last 4 minutes of the half though. Games are too long, this is a silly rule. 5. Adopt the college overtime rule.
  23. Here are some rules I think are dumb and that should be changed: 1. After a missed FG, why is the ball spotted at the point of the kick instead of the previous line of scrimmage? The team not only misses the FG but also effectively gets penalized 7 yards. I say change this rule. 2. When a team gets flagged for delay of game, why not give them the option to use a timeout to avoid the 5 yard penalty? It would make for some interesting coaching decisions. 3. In victory formation, the QB should not be charged with a -2 yard rushing attempt. It should be "team yardage" or something like that. I saw a game the other day where the backup QB was pushing forward to get back to the LOS on each kneel-down, which is just dumb and dangerous, but he apparently didn't want the negative rushing yardage. There, I said it. Now back to ragging on Beane and McDermott and Brady.
