Josh Working With WR’s Beyond OTAs/Camp
Old Coot replied to Warriorspikes51's topic in The Stadium Wall
That's as good a moon walk route as I've seen run. The downside of running the route is that the receiver may wear only one glove. -
Why would the Panthers trade to jump ahead of the Bills? Presumably they were afraid the Bills would take their guy Legette.

Going for quantity (picks) over quality?

Latavius Murray has stem cell therapy in South America

Can't blame him. What could possibly go wrong. -
Nothing could be worse than the Broncos' infamous "Milk Duds" uniforms of the early '60s. Plus dig the vertical striped socks

I voted Front Office but I'd really liked to have been a player but then I don't want to be a physical wreck by age 40. Those guys really do sacrifice their bodies. Remember Eral Campbell, the Oilers' monster running back? He ran over not around people. I don't think he was ever seriously injured in his playing days but by age 45 he was a physical wreck. He uses a wheelchair now.

Thanks for the Year of the Rams video. It brings back memories. I was a Colts fan (Baltimore, that is) and those Colts-Rams games were titanic. The Rams had the best D line in the league: The "Fearsome Foursome": Roger Brown, Lamar Lundy, Merlin Olsen (HOF), and Deacon Jones (HOF).

Epic, Hypothetical Trade Scenario: Would ya?
Old Coot replied to EmotionallyUnstable's topic in The Stadium Wall

This makes it even more puzzling as to why the Bills would make him a first round draft pick. I admit that I'm a McDermott homie but I'll bet Beane would not have drafted him in the 1st without strong McD support.

A hell of a running back but a deeply flawed human being. He's number 8 on the list of most rushing yards in a season but all the guys above him did it in 16 games. He ran for 2003 yards in 14 games. For comparison, Eric Dickerson holds the rushing title at 2105 yards in 16 games. That's an average of about 130 yards per game. Very good but OJ's average was 143 yards per game. And he did it on a mediocre team when the D knew they'd hand the ball to him. Props to his O line -- the Electric Company -- because they would turn on the Juice: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_Company_(football)

The guy does well in straight man coverage but he screws up in zone and when he has to make adjustments. Maybe he'll eventually learn but at this point he'd only have value to a team that plays straight man as a base D. This is the NFL so I doubt there are any teams that do that. He wasn't a first round pick. What mystifies me is why his shortcomings weren't apparent from film or scouting. Any thoughts?

and it must be in the 4th quarter and tried by the trailing team.

Chiefs president floats the idea of the team leaving

But it's only greed when the other guy does it. -

Bills 2024 scheduled opponents list is out !!!
Old Coot replied to Toyo321's topic in The Stadium Wall
How are opponents selected for each team (outside of its division)? Is it random or is there a method for calculation a team's opponents? -
Ed Oliver is playing out of his mind this season

Allen needs to mentally overpower Mahomes
Old Coot replied to Thrivefourfive's topic in The Stadium Wall
Let's try a counterfactual: (that means I know this trade would never happen but let's assume that it's on offer) Mahomes for Allen trade, straight up one for one. You are the Bills' GM, do you do the trade? Why or why not? -
Bills fans dropped to No. 20 in latest fan rankings
Old Coot replied to \GoBillsInDallas/'s topic in The Stadium Wall
There is only one solution for this -- fire McDermott!! -
Wilks had KC's number in the first half: KC scored zero points. Maybe the firing is related to the fact that Wilks' called D on the last play did not account for KC's Corndog / Tom & Jerry play. KC had shown thta play earlier in the game & the 49ers defensed it well.
