  1. He seems to be around a lot if he isnt "here" as he was at that Sabres game the other night... I dont know as if you "fly in" for a Sabres game from CA lol.
  2. I dont ever "cheer/root" for that..but that said I will 100% NOT FEEL SORRY for him if that happens either. When people do stupid things and reap the rewards of stupidity...I almost never feel bad for them if its sports, people wrestling with bears, handling snakes,jumping into lion pits, swimming with sharks..when something inevitably goes wrong...its really hard to feel bad for them..
  3. Sorry man, I know the feeling I lost my Mother about 3 years ago to Lung Cancer...wasnt even the Cancer that killed her it was the Chemo that did her in....Sucks and i know....God bless you and your family.
  4. yup last thing w need to do it the carp the Bills did when they already had RB and took one anyways..Spiller like pick a position of needCB,WR,OL,DE,etc,etc..
  5. They were both ROOKIES and they didnt have a lot of work or experience...aka they can work to get better.....look at the effect BOTH players actually had though....Yes they both had drops but Singletary wasnt used a lot as a pass catcher....Knox was a "raw" talent same deal......he just didnt have a lot of catches/time at TE being a pass catcher...Im betting since they both showed they can catch it with work they both get better....id be more concerned if they had brought in a guy that had 4-7 years in the league and then they had that kind of % drops....but as a Rookie and neither saw a ton of work pass catching...I guess its not surprising... And think on this Knox for ROOKIE TE was 5th in receptions at 28 2nd in the entire NFL for rookies in yards behind only Fant at 388 4th in average per reception 4th in yards per game 2nd in longest TD catch again only behind Fant at 49yds tied for 4th in TD's and 4th in first down % among TE with over 20 receptions Knox was a 3rd rounder..the guys he is going up against for those stats are all what I believe first or 2nd rounders...... and both Fant and Hockenson got a lot more looks in the receiving game college wise so they were more accomplished pass catchers coming out....I guess you could ask......would you rather spend a first rounder on Fant or a 3rd on Knox then wait for about 3-4 years and see what u have...im thinking positional drafting wise 1st vs 3rd Bills will win this one.. http://www.nfl.com/stats/categorystats?seasonType=REG&d-447263-n=1&d-447263-o=2&d-447263-p=1&statisticPositionCategory=TIGHT_END&d-447263-s=RECEIVING_RECEPTIONS&tabSeq=1&season=2019&experience=0&Submit=Go&archive=false&conference=null&qualified=true
  6. He was ok but not great..thing is IF he was around now he may fit in well with the McD "rotational" football plan. But he simply was never the guy you PAID bigger $$ to bother keeping around he isnt that guy...
  7. Get josh some guys that can get open and actually CATCH the ball when it hits them in the hands..
  8. Of the modern era Bills no one else really belongs as none of the ones you mentioned are best of all time at their positions.
  9. I dont know about first ballot..and id also have to see where he ranked among the all time greats(returners) and if he was the best ever....and i remember him being a great one..then at some point I could see it..that said...I havent really researched him or returners..and many actually were awesome at other positions to boot(like Deion)..im also not saying that Tasker should have been a first ballot guy...but he should be in....IMO ANY time you could argue that someone in a phase of the game was "the best in history/ever" at doing that..they should be considered(and eventually be in) IMO.. and its not like we are talking say from 1975 till now we would be adding 50 more guys....we are literally talking about over a span of 40-45 years adding maybe 3-5 more into the hall...or about 1 a DECADE.....I dont think 1 guy extra a DECADE would put a bad light or impugn the integrity of the HOF...especially when you can say yes but this guy may have been a punter or kicker or ST guys....BUT he was the best or among the best of ALL TIME.
  10. If he doesnt belong in QUIT calling ST a "phase of the game" I think the best player ever at the ST phase should be in I have no issue with that...I dont think guys that were meerly ok at ST should be in it would have to be best of the best ever and in that I believe Tasker qualifies...In all my years of watching NFL only one other guy comes to mind since the 70's(thats how long ive been watching) and that was years ago Bill bates....and should Punters and kickers be in..sure..IF they were the best of the best EVER at the position.... Either put in the best of the best at ALL positions or QUIT saying the HOF honors the best at ALL positions...straight out say the HOF is for the best players ever other than Punters,Kickers and ST they dont count or matter.....now again that said...since the 70's how many guys would to ME that add to the HOF...about 3-4 since 1976ish 3-4 extras thats about it....would it be so horrible to have 3-4 more guys in the HOF that were among the best ever at their positions? over a 40 year span....thats about 1 extra guy every 10 years one extra guy a DECADE would tarnish or ruin the HOF??? I mean we are talking Punters the caliber of Ray Guy...I havent seen one since id put into the HOF.....ST guys like Tasker and or bates...same deal...there are a lot of decent to very good ones..but other than those 2 I cant think of any id put in....Kickers same deal they need to be "special" have won big games or had such good statistical careers or be doing things other kickers could do at that time won SB/playoffs/big games... we are talking guys like Morten Anderson and probably the old patriots kicker gets in im betting And same deal with ST IMO...there should be 1-2 guys in Tasker being one if not the only one..
  11. I dont know who it will be...but I think the positions they need most is WR/CB/DE/DT/OL
  12. KC and I dont care you will never in this lifetime get me to cheer for the Titans
  13. Now me if I was the cop would have said 1 of 2 things loud enough to be heard after that. 1. If your looking for a date? sorry im busy right now 2. You know...around these parts when you smack someone on the ass like that it means youd like to marry me? were you asking permission?
  14. because some actually value him OR he wouldnt be getting looked at for HC or other OC jobs.....and think on this.....who would you trust more to know a decent coach from a poor one...other guys IN NFL football OR some fan that just has a axe to grind because he didnt like this or that??
  15. I know..I wish they would just call it a day and get him WORKING/INTO his more natural slot at G...but im SERIOUSLY questioning if they dont still play him at RT out of pure stubbornness.
  16. I dont think ANY amount of surgery will shore up his POOR SLOW footwork to ever make him a viable NFL caliber RT...that said i DO 100% think he could become a VERY decent G at the NFL level..so if the Bills drafted him specifically as a RT they missed their mark...if they drafted him as a swing type OR OL and can get him to his more god given gift skills wise position of G they got their man. But if it was upper body surgery(and from the pics it appears so) thats not gonna fix the fact he is TOO SLOW vs NFL speed rushers and doesn't have that foot speed. now for instance if you told me he had some kind of LOWER body injury that hampered his speed or agility....then id be interested to see what you have post surgery and give him the benefit of the doubt..like ankle,knee,hip type cleanup that would make the case that that made him slow...but upper body..nope not a big difference in too slow feet... And remember overall its not that he cant block at all...its that he cant keep up footwork/speed wise with speed rushers..
  17. I stated the stuff that was done in HS and college as "hazing" in my times as stuff I didnt take issue with..did I put that down as one of them?
  18. Im so glad i didnt grow up in this SOFT generation we are currently raising. I dont know what if anything happened and how serious it was i wish i knew so that I could seriously either say man that was WRONG OR say man GTFO with this current day weak sauce mental frailty *****...but since I dont know I cant make a true statement on what I think. There is stuff that I would say is "mild" like shaving cream in a helmet,singing a song for the team, having to carry around a Senior players helmet,etc,etc Then there is the more egregious physical stuff that really shouldn't be happening anymore I remember the shaving creme in my helmet, i remember carrying around someone helmet and pads through training camp/2 a days, I remember atomic balm in the jock strap...thats about as far as ours got though..
  19. Best drummer ever. RIP these guys were a big part of my youth and every time i hear a song from them it brings back good times and memories..RIP
  20. Depends, normally a team already has a plan of who to go after in FA and who/what position they want to go for in draft...sometimes a position is SO BAD(like OL last year) they use BOTH FA and draft...FA im betting OL/DL maybe even WR but we shall see Draft im betting WR/DE they may also add some safety depth..oh and a PUNTER...do we really need or need to keep the worst punter in the NFL???
  21. Titans had a better running game, QB and WR's, and OC...that said we beat the Titans so I see that as a positive...the Bills are RIGHT THERE if they can improve slightly in WR,RB,OL QB takes more steps,etc,etc...
  22. LAME, I mean it was barely even a hit let along fine worthy...how about the head shot Allen took but wasnt called...FAR FAR more egregious. So now...moderately bumping..as thats all it was a moderate bump..is fine worthy..almost ..and i hate to say this..but almost wish Ford had LAID HIM OUT COLD..at least them it would be worth a fine..but that moderate bump
