I haven't read the replies but I bet a lot of them will echo what I say here. First of all, yes he was very quick. I think Kenny Davis was faster although that's just from my memory of the way he ran, that great high step he had. Not sure if he was in fact faster. Secondly, it's funny when I think back to Thurman's OTT entrance to Super Bowl 26 because looking here it really stands out how he tended to do the Barry Sanders thing of scoring a spectacular TD and then just tossing the ball to the ref. I always like it when great players do that. Thirdly, man I loved the NFL back then. Maybe it's because I was so young and the Bills were so good but the whole thing was better for me. From the announcers to the way the game was played. And finally. Thank GOD for Josh Allen. I was really beginning to lose my passion for watching this sport until he turned up. The guy is so much fun to watch and the way he plays in many ways makes him a throwback - that Jim Kelly-like linebacker attitude to playing QB where he will happily truck a defender to gain an extra couple yards. Looking back at these great Bills teams of yesteryear, Allen is already my favorite Buffalo player of all time and is probably now above Brett Favre as my favorite NFL player of all time

I think there are definite arguments for both. The problem with the draft currently is it requires zero skill or effort to get the number 1 pick. You're being rewarded for being bad. And if you're a truly terrible team with an awful front office the players drafted are often ruined by it. look at all the QBs who have come out and taken a beating for 2 or 3 years and end up a shell of their former selves. FA and the salary cap are great for parity, but those require skill from your scouting team and your GM to juggle all the numbers.

Well, the advantage with that would be giving the NFL yet another opportunity to create an 'event'. Imagine the weekend before the Super Bowl, instead of all the pro bowl trash they could have a big event where different NFL legends come up and pick team names out of a hat, similar to what FIFA does when they announce the groups for the World Cup. And it would create some interesting trade situations (a team like Buffalo getting the 1st pick in a draft where there's a big name QB expected to go number 1 - they could make a killing trading for a QB hungry team). But on the other hand the minute the Patriots got picked out first we'd all be accusing Kraft of bribing the Goodell with cash and Asian hookers to fix it for him Edit: I missed the part in the OP about non-playoff teams being involved. I say throw everyone in the lottery!

Especially when it's been soaked in vodka

Cool, so the same countries who make this ***** for less than a dollar a week get to have it all back again!

I thought Red Wolves or Red Tails would have been good. Red Wolves was the one I would have chosen. The fans could have carried on the chant "hail to the red..." Commanders has an AAF feel to it but whatever. They're so irrelevant now and will be so long as that vile man is owning the team

Me too, so funny. I guess he was hurt by the wind (and the fact he was the 9th selection after everyone else turned it down)

This is so WWE I was expecting Mahomes to come out and hit him with a folded chair

I always imagine Snyder conducts business like this man

I've spent 20 years of marriage trying to find it and am now convinced it doesn't exist

I may have contracted the clap... then again I could have just been gripping it too hard while doing pee pee

If your boss offered you money to physically abuse another member of staff you wouldn't at least have a quiet word with HR about it? I think I would

And he's already being held up as a hero for exposing this. Why didn't he quit the moment Ross offered him such a deal? Would he have come out and talked about this if Ross extended his contract?

I was just watching ESPN (sorry) and it's interesting that every person on the panel, despite knowing not knowing all the details yet (and not being sure which of the ones they do know are true or false) are already painting Flores as a crusader who is standing up for what is right and what is good. I mean, can we hear some of the facts first before we decide that? And then we have Dan Orlofsky doing his best "I'm not racist! I'm great buddies with Marcus Spears! Tell 'em, Marcus!" Really interesting to see how people react to these stories

Hey, I don't like this. When it was the Dolphins and Billy B I was having a great time pointing and laughing, but now McD is being dragged into it too? I think he should just release a statement that says "praise the Lord" and keep quiet until training camp

I can't wait to hear Belichick take the witness stand: Lawyer: do you swear to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth, so help you God? Belichick: We're on to Cincinnati

I normally don't like behaving like an old lady hearing the latest gossip but I have to admit I'm...

100k for every loss? Urban Myer will be able to buy himself an endless supply of lap dances

Depends how he does in his first 2 preseason games

Great! But, Ken, you should know, I'm giving you until the end of preseason game number 2 to convince me I was right to be behind this move. Otherwise I will be creating a petition and sending it to Terry

The Dolphins forum is hilarious on all this. When they thought they were getting Harbaugh they were all excited about it, then when news broke he wanted the Vikings they were like "good, he's an egomaniac"

Should have called them the Washington Snyders and had Napoleon as their logo

Will be interesting to see if he gets into the HOF one day

Well I admit I wanted him to lose so badly because of the way their fans are and the way the media treats him. He seems like an okay guy really but that whole 13 seconds thing was really pissing me off. Fun fact I learnt today, Mahomes threw that INT in overtime when 13 seconds had run off the clock!

I was very pleased today. Not only do we not have to hear Chiefs fans talking tough for the next 2 weeks but THE GREATEST QUARTERBACK IN THE HISTORY OF THE UNIVERSE played like a total bum in that second half and gifted the game to Cincy
