  1. It looks like he's focussed on hitting the hole with conviction. Too much dancing last year from what I remember. I'd rather he just got 2 or 3 yards by being decisive than stammering about behind the line, hoping for a huge play, only to get taken for a loss or no gain.
  2. Not necessarily. What if he gets most of his carries in the second half when the team is winding the clock and the defences are gassed?
  3. I enjoy the shot at 0.48 of Kyler signing the autograph for the guy. They clearly got that actor to kneel down for the shot so Murray would look tall and heroic next to him.
  4. Favre is in my top 3 favorite players of all time. He was reckless for sure but so much fun to watch, just like a kid out there having fun. In that sense he's always reminded me of Allen (or Allen has always reminded me of him). Those playoff games at Lambeau field with Favre playing, snow on the ground, that was such a great time
  5. What you hope for is that the passing game is all we think it can be early in the season, with Diggs, Sanders, Beasley and Davis giving teams fits, Knox and Breida making their fair share of catches on the side. Then by the time Stevenson is eligible to play again, with coordinators spending so much effort trying to stop the offense they've seen for 8 weeks or so, the rookie can be thrown in on the occasional play to just burn past everyone and cause a new headache. I don't see him making a huge impact on games, maybe the odd return, but just having a guy that Josh can launch it to now and then will help keep defenses honest. Plus we could use him on jet sweeps and a few gadget plays.
  6. The offense was humming last year when Brown was out
  7. Wow, this is an incredible read. The part about attendants blocking the door with carts is pretty chilling. My nephew who was just a kid back then, asked me at the time why they didn't have locks on the doors and I said people just didn't comprehend that people could do that sort of thing. I read an article that said up until 9/11 crew were always ordered to never try and stop a hijacking as a vast majority of them would end without civilian casualties. You'd obviously know more about that than I do
  8. Incredible recollections, thanks for posting that. I've heard bits of that broadcast and the documentary they made about it a few years ago. They were saying how different to the news stations it was, as Howard was just saying what he thought without having to remain impartial
  9. Not sure if this is allowed here, I'm sure the mods will move it for me if not. As it is almost 20 whole years since that day, and since I'm fascinated by the whole thing, I wondered what people here (at least those who were alive/old enough to remember) where they were and what they were doing when they heard about the attacks or saw them unfolding on TV. I had taken the day off work and was doing some work around the house. I put the radio on to listen to some music while I worked and soon after the breaking news came on. I spent the rest of the day in front of the TV in a strange sort of shock, like the whole thing wasn't really happening. People saying certain experiences feel like dreams can be a little cliched but that's one of the few times when I experienced that feeling. Oh, and I haven't asked this question to cause a political debate on what happened after. There will be lots of threads in the other forum for that. I'm just interested in hearing how you experienced that day, wherever you happened to be. And on an NFL note, if you haven't seen it I'd recommend the NFL Timeline documentary about the whole debate that went on that week around whether the weekend's games should be cancelled.
  10. I like Simms a lot but I really like Cosell. I listen to him each week on the Ross Tucker podcast. There's no BS or hot takes with him, he just talks about what he's seen when breaking down film and is modest with it. I wish more guys in the media were like him
  11. I just listened to it and yes, Greeny managed to manipulate Jim into talking about Zach Wilson by asking him if this QB class could be better than the guys from 83. Nice work Greeny.
  12. I haven't seen it. How long does it take for Greeny to start talking about the Jets?
  13. Mac Jones found Brady's old Exempt from Physical Contact by Order of NFL Officiating Office badge. It doesn't expire until 2037 so Bill doesn't need a backup for a while
  14. Ironically I've spent much time thinking about the Ertz situation while in bed
  15. I'm just drawing you a new rocket but I can't get the engines right
  16. If Joe Namath and Johnny Unitas are the most QB sounding names ever then Logan Woodside has to be the least. It sounds more like an exclusive kids camp
  17. I think the plan is to wait until our championship game rematch against KC and just rush 11 guys at Zed Mahomes until he breaks his head again
  18. Please don't tell me the last year and a half of Bills football was just a dream
  19. More since the Bills have been good. Back in the Jauron era I was only watching the Bills, then would spend the rest of Sunday crying and drinking. For a while I thought I was growing tired of football. Now I realize I was just tired of the ***** I was having to watch every week
  20. No way would Kraft allow a pervert to be on his te... oh never mind
  21. We're like the old couple at the beginning of UP, breaking that savings jar open every year thinking there will be plenty of years to come, not realizing time is always running out. I wish I had a more macho film analogy than that but I really don't...
  22. NOBODY'S got AIDS, and I don't wanna hear that word in here again!
  23. I hope Jones is terrible in the real games
