  1. I can’t figure him out. I think he’s good because his role is so central, the defense is great and the front office knows what it’s doing. I’m perplexed by the lack of splash plays and it seems like every other game or so we get a disturbing optic like the unfortunate piggy back ride. And for what it’s worth, I love a good Edwards thread and look forward to them!
  2. Ha, that's entertaining! Alternate theory... Bills fans with a good memory voting up White on the Jets site!
  3. I agree, Bennett is rarely mentioned but was a key piece of the puzzle. I was in a bar in DC just after the trade with a client who knew a lot about football and he brought it up out of the blue and said "Bennett's really good and the Bills will be really good now." I had my doubts based on where the Bills were at the time but it stuck with me and turned out he was right!
  4. Diggs won the verbal contest and dominated on the field. Alexander seemed to be caught off guard by completely predictable questions after the game, or that was the best he could come up with - entertaining but cringe-worthy to see him struggle through the interview. But overall for both of them, there's this: "Never get into an argument with the village idiot because people walking by won't be able to tell who the idiot is."
  5. Wait, why is Brady at the top of the list.?...... said no one ever! Love that nobody is sticking up for Brady. Anyone? Anyone?
  6. I've always been jealous of your screen name! Mine - I lived near UB and my friends and I used to sneak onto Rotary Field and into Clark gym when we were kids, got shagged out a handful of times but they never caught us. Then I went to UB and spent a fair bit of time at Clark gym - always felt weird to be allowed. So it reminds me of my long, not very illustrious Buffalo sports odyssey.
  7. I want to make a snarky comment but actually, you've been delivering and extending his legend for all these years!
  8. Yeah but I'm pretty sure I was the FIRST neighborhood Bobby Chandler (in my mind at the time)
  9. Great write-up and explains a lot of the individual moving pieces I observed during the game!
  10. It was interesting to understand more about the contested catch by Gabe Davis. I still don't understand why we got him in the 4th round or whenever it was that we drafted him. As a rookie he looked more polished than I expected so I thought that he probably did not have strong athletic skills. This catch showcases his athletic skills - holding Minkah Fitzpatrick off with one hand, corralling the ball with the other and then just using superior strength and hand coordination to rip and rob a truly elite athlete of the ball. Fun to watch.
  11. Imagine it? We lived through it for 20 years until #17 showed up!
  12. That was an exciting coin flip - high point of the game so far….
  13. I like the implication that he's making some kind of sacrifice by dating a Canisius grad - not to criticize, but leaving the photo off might have helped bring the point home more effectively!
  14. My daughter is a senior in college and face-timed me yesterday evening. "Oh" I said, "Nice to see you wearing your Bills jersey." "Well yeah," she said, "I forgot to wear it last week for the first time this season and you saw what happened.". Fins mystery solved.
  15. I agree, it's a thing. I feel like we need to develop that aggravatingly boring QB sneak that NE did for years with Brady - snap, dive 3.5 feet into a small gap and it's over before the defense can really react. But that said I'm not filing a formal complaint - we've got only high class problems at the moment.
  16. My favorite comments Just after the stiff-arm, talking about the other Rams db: "Look at #19, doesn't even want to help his teammate up." implying that he doesn't want to be associated with what just happened. Also, after the Diggs TD: "Rough day to be a db".
  17. Reading these are an essential part of my opening day ritual - please keep them coming!!!
  18. Went to high school with his daughter, nice family
