  1. Great observation. However, I always heard that the horseshoe is supposed to be displayed with the opening to the top. Otherwise, "the Luck will run out". (...and that's what happened to Indy last year. lol) Break a Leg, Colts!
  2. I'm okay with Beane trading our first round pick next year to move up and grab his guy at WR, or even EDGE. It's gonna be the 32nd pick of the draft, so why not! Go Bills!
  3. Not to scare anyone, but Buffalo may have nonstop flights to the British Isles in the near future. I wouldn't want to stay in the new AFC East with a London team. Stick us in the AFC North instead. https://www.wkbw.com/news/local-news/direct-flights-from-buffalo-to-ireland-one-nys-senator-wants-to-make-it-happen
  4. We should never "pull a Watkins" again. You especially don't reach for a receiver in a WR rich draft, either. Trusting the Process. Go Bills!
  5. I'm sure the modern, woke NFL didn't invite The Juice. (Sigh) I remember when OJ was a great player, not a tired punchline. It's a shame how he tarnished his on-the-field accomplishments. The argument could be made that he was the greatest runner in the history of the NFL, but because of his Bronco antics, no one cares enough to make the case. I would have liked to see some BRUUUUUCE hype in that segment, though. HE was the greatest to play his position since Deacon Jones, IMO.
  6. You aren't kidding! Take a look at the last paragraph in an article about the Buffalo area unemployment rate from today's paper. An editor would have quickly caught the obvious error. SMDH "There’s even a disparity across Buffalo Niagara, too. The 4.5% unemployment rate in Erie County is more than a percentage point higher than the 5.6% jobless rate in Niagara County." - David Robinson, Deputy Business Editor for the Buffalo News Rut-Row, Raggy!! A website in over-sized print form. lol
  7. "A fan of the Buffalo Bills and the team playing the Patriots that week." There. That's better.
  8. You don't remember the Giants D faking injuries to slow down the K-Gun?! That was a HUGE part of their gameplan, "stretching the rules" to gain an advantage. And of course, their Defensive Coordinator grew up to become Bill Billif*ck, leader of the evil empire.
  9. I love the in depth analysis that goes on here, folks. You guys rock. (No sarcasm intended.)
  10. PASS INTERFERENCE. DEFENSE. FIRST AND GOAL FROM THE ONE. Sigh.
  11. You have to wait a few years to evaluate a draft class. Here's their look back at the 2017 Draft. Tre' White is in the top ten. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000902336/article/top-25-nfl-rookies-marshon-lattimore-headlines-final-rankings
  12. I was in a tent in the Arabian desert. My unit was from Fort Monmouth, NJ, so we had a LOT of Giants fans. I was one of 2 Buffalo natives in my company. When there was an update on TV about a SCUD missile attack near us, our company commander came in, demanding we change the channel DURING THE SUPER BOWL, so we could watch CNN's updates about missiles. (Side note: I was in a HUMINT Military Intelligence Battalion.) I was the only sergeant with the cojones to say something. I pointed out that an MI unit shouldn't be relying on CNN for intel, but my First Sergeant grabbed me and dragged me out of the tent, probably preventing an article 15. (The interuption only lasted a few minutes of game time, fortunately.) After the missed kick, I walked out of the tent and watched the saddest sunrise ever. Due to the time zone difference, we had stayed up almost all night watching the game.
  13. Has anyone mentioned character? Which free agents will fit "The Process"? I think that's a huge part of our recent success.
  14. I just hope "the narrative" keeps the Bills under the RADAR as long as possible. lol Go Bills!
  15. ZERO POINT ZERO! lol The only coaching changes I see this off-season is (possibly) one of our defensive coaches getting poached & elevated to DC somewhere. Frazier is a great DC, but past his prime for a HC job, IMO. Our offense isn't really being dominant, so I doubt anyone's getting recruited from that side of the ball. Now, if we make it to the AFC Championship game or better, then maybe that changes.
  16. I won a Posluszny jersey one year, but they traded him a few weeks later. lol I own an Allen jersey now. LIke Edmonds, I hope they're both Bills stars for a decade or more. Go Bills! Let's 'steel' a victory in Pittsburg & make the PLAYOFFS!
  17. I've always maintained that if Smerlas was still with the Bills in 1990, we'd have won against the Giants in Tampa Bay. OJ Anderson doesn't move the ball on us like he did with a Wright/Smerlas rotation.
  18. Are there any image experts/hackers who can exposed the two blacked out player names on the screenshot from the original post? That would be fun, fueling more Jersey Jets disfunction.
  19. I feel like we are actually watching Josh Allen turn the corner as we speak. His development this season has been wonderful, and with a light schedule, he should gain valuable experience against weaker opponents. That will propel the Bills into the late season showdown against the Patriots, hopefully for the division crown! Getting back to the thread subject, I wonder which guys in the league at WR are "process" guys. Any ideas there? I'm sure Mike Evans would fit into the culture, but we could have had him in the draft. I will think of the trade up for Sammy Watkins when we talk receivers for the next decade or so. Lastly, I expect a move before the trade deadline from Beane, but I don't necessarily think it'll be at wideout. OLB & DE/Edge are strong contenders, too.
  20. Who thinks there will be a big fine, or even a game suspension on Jones, for the dirty hit on Allen? (There had better be!) I hope he's already back to normal (no symptoms this morning), but maybe it would help Josh's understanding of the game if he misses a start or two. He really saw the field better after last year's injury put him on the bench. Just sayin'. Overall, I agree that this game should show the league we're a legitimate contender for a playoff spot this year and going forward. We'll sort out the turnover problems, I'm sure. The O line will jell more, and coupled with Singletary's return, that should make Josh's life easier in the pocket. That should lead to fewer "hero ball" mistakes. Good things are in store for Josh Allen & the Buffalo Bills. (And let's not forget that Jim Kelly threw a lot of picks in his day, but was a HoF QB.) Even if Barkley starts, I expect the train to keep on a-rollin'. We've got a chance to beat that hated team in Foxboro in December, if this year's squad continues to grow together and develop. Still trusting The Process. Go Bills!
  21. Drink the Kool-Aid, Happy. You can DO IT! lol
  22. There's too much risk, trading for Clowney, since he doesn't seem to be a "Process" guy. If happy and productive, he could make our D into a monster. However, I think you could get him for Nsheke or Shaq, and a mid-round pick. The real question is how much he'll cost with a new deal, IF you can get him to sign one. is $22-30 Million a year too much? I think so. My immediate thought reading this thread was, "Why don't Houston and Washington trade their problems?"
