    Considering NYS is now in a $61B hole, there are two things that will happen with any new stadium:

     

    1. Pegula's are paying for it 100%.

    2. They retrofit New Era as-is. 

     

    There's no way in the next 3-5 years they would consider building a brand new place.

    As much as I have my own desire for a down town stadium, with the current economic situation that is unlikely to get better soon. New Era is where the Bills will be playing for the next two decades at minimum. Imo this stadium discussion is officially shelved for the foreseeable future. Unless Terry and Kim foot the total bill. 
     

    Go Bills!!!

    Whats ordinary effort?  Your ordinary effort could be different than mine. 

     

    Is jumping ordinary effort?

     

    Is stopping to change direction and catch a pass thrown behind you ordinary effort? 

     

    Is tracking the ball thrown over the wrong shoulder considered ordinary effort? 

     

    Is lunging ordinary effort? 

     

    Ordinarily all the things you have listed are likely to happen multiple times per game. The deal is a lot of receivers don’t have the well rounded skill set to be able to do all those things well. Blame it on variations in human physiology and cognitive capacity. We have all seen drops that are not recorded as such, Zay Jones for instance... ??

     

    Go Bills!!!

  3. Allen’s biggest issue passing wise over the past two seasons is that by and large he has had mostly CRAP for receivers, the drop rate for the receivers group as a whole for the last two seasons has been abysmal. 

      We have lost or struggled in many games directly because of this issue.    How many times have we thrown our hands in the air and said WTF... when a pass has been dropped at a crucial moment in games?  (Hurts to think about it doesn’t it)
     

        It certainly takes two to tango no doubt , but the ever coveted passer percentage, yards per attempt, points and wins all get better when the receivers group isn’t dropping close to thirty five passes every season. 

     

       My shrink says I should work harder at expressing my feelings so that I am more clear about how I view this issue ??

    well I'd definitely say the guy before you who called him a thug, but seems my sarcasm detector is on the fritz due to my two month and counting quarantine so maybe I'm wrong. apologies!

    No big deal, like all humans ML has had ups and downs, the world is constant shades of grey for the most part. I can’t imagine what I would have been like being young and a multi millionaire, the potential for disaster would be ever present ?

    Off the field he works with multiple charities, and is incredibly popular in Oakland due to his community support. You truly have no idea what you're talking

    about.

     

     

    Holy hell, neither do you. He's also managed his money better than probably 99% of all football players, and owns multiple businesses in addition to his charity work. And it was $56 million, from football alone. 

     

    You Marshawn haters need to seriously realize that it's not 2009 anymore.

    Don’t be sillier than me, who do you know that actually hates Lynch?, cause it ain’t me, he’s a happy stoner look at those eyes,  I was making a pun with the “chronic” reference. Dr Dre, Snoop dog, “ The Chronic”   Oh, and glad to hear he hasn’t pissed is money away, good on him ?

    "no more excuses"??? What excuses are those, something like, "excuse me for making the playoffs in my second year with two weeks to spare"?

     

    How about "no excuses" for those who pronounced Josh to be a bust before he was even drafted or those who still can't get over the Bills passing on Josh Rosen? They were wrong then, they are wrong now and and though they live for the day to say "I told you so" that day will never come. 

     

    Josh is a young, hard working, fearless QB whose best days are ahead and who will get better every game leaving the naysayers and the "he is terrible but oh, gee, I really want him to be good" crowd weeping into their completion percentage security blanket. Thumbsucking Linuses the lot of them.

     

    And NO, the quarantine is NOT making me cranky (&(*&*^%$$#)&!!!! 

    Well the quarantine may not be making you cranky, but it sure as hell is making my wife cranky...

  7. So far the Wade thing is turning out to be more a PR thing for the league than anything else, not that any of us would mind if he turned out to be a good player, but I get the feeling it’s 99% PR for over seas consumption. I don’t think the Bills would have taken him on if not for this league initiative.

    Not too much new but the author echos my feelings .. we drafted a raw prospect and he has at times shown the raw skillset for good and bad.  He needs to take a step forward in 2020 (which I believe he will) in order to avoid competition in 2021.

    If we can get more of the Dallas game and a lot less of  the second half of the WC game, we will do well this season, but Allen can’t beat the other eleven guys buy himself, just the dropped passes alone account for many of the teams losses, let alone other issues.

    I'm very skeptical of these sorts of college highlight reels. I recall when we traded the farm for Sammy Watkins, there was a lot of buzz about how he would rack up the YAC. There were some highlights where he just plowed over defenders, sending them ass over elbows. The problem is: blown tackles like this just don't happen in the NFL. There isn't a third-string linebacker active in the regular season who will get blown up like that. The vast majority of NFL linebackers are going to make that tackle, and if Moss is going to make it a habit of running straight at linebackers, he's going to get stuffed. Often.

    The NFL is rife with missed tackles. How those missed tackles happen varies, sometimes it’s a Knox truck job, other times it’s the regularly missed arm tackles that shifty RBs like Singletary cause, but it happens multiple times during every game.

    Never heard any flat earth ? until he was on the rams roster 

    I guess what I’m getting at is that those that believe flat earth stuff don’t all a sudden flick a switch and go down that path. It takes a certain sort of Fuh Ked up person to think that way to begin with. SM & BB picked up on his crazy and shipped him out asap.

    To be fair, this is new information and not a reason to “I told you so” posters who thought we should keep him. 

    Its not that new, Sammy is a known flat earther, and nothing good ever comes from that group, that and why do you think they dumped him so quickly? Sure he has talent, but his brain is an absolute mess and that likely stood out when player evaluations where first done by new management. If this interview came out back then we would have been lucky to get a conditional 7th for him.
