  1. I'm going to say anybody but but @GunnerBill and that is my "hottest Bills take"
  2. One time I had a colonoscopy and I was wasn't actually knocked out. Whatever they gave me, I was flying. But again, awake, and somewhat aware I was flying. So I would take that experience over most Easters. But since then I have had two more. Not as much fun. Just the awful bowel prep, fully knocked out, and groggy/out of it after. If it was like those ones I'm all Easter bunny. Fun times.
  3. They went 48-34 in the regular season. They would be a 5 or 6 usually.
  4. You’re the only person I have ever met that calls the NFL playoffs “the tournament”. I imagine it’s trying to liken in to March Madness as part of an agenda so we can feel better about our team (shocking, a guy named process truster trying to campaign for the playoffs to not matter). We have officially seen it all. Sorry, but “the tournament” is all that matters for history or anything else. Nobody remembers what happens outside “the tournament” 20 years later. Nobody cares about the regular season.
  5. I could get behind the idea of getting rid of divisions. The rivalries seem to be less meaningful with only a few marquee ones. They would play once in the regular season anyway. Everybody plays a conference opponent once, the, 2nd to last game you play the conference opponent who is ranked directly above you. Last game you play the opposite ranked opponent (1 vs 16) in the other conference, which should make for some fun cross conference showdowns for the final wild card in the final week. Also leaving some meaningless games like we are used to (and some teams earn). Then double bye (still like this better).
  6. As much as I hate the one team bye I can see the logic in it. You want the regular season games to matter and you want to give a big edge to very best team in each conference based on that regular season performance. I think this is a fair outlook. If you do a two team bye you're basically saying the 2nd and 1st team are the same because the prize is the bye. But I can also see an argument for saying ok, two byes, and the prize is Home Field in the Conference championship. All I know is it sucks that our success has fallen under the 1 team bye format. That has contributed heavily to our inability to get to a Super Bowl IMO
  7. Tua is a system QB who is rather soft, surrounded with elite talent. He puts a permanent ceiling on the Dolphins. I hope they keep him forever. We don’t know who Maye is yet but he could end up being a very good player. So at this point, certainly far more dangerous than Tua will ever be.
  8. He's a guy Brady needs in his offense. Somebody that you can run those screens with, elite YAC. Always keep ahead of the sticks. I would argue his "skill" is so required in our offense his impact is at a level much higher than his actual value or talent as a WR.
  9. All I remember about that game was screens for days and it was so pretty. Packers power sweep like execution. We did it better than anybody.
  10. We have not been a fundamentally sound run defense in years. We depend on leads and gambling with run blitzes to prevent teams from running. Which works against the scrubs we play in the regular season but that's where it ends. We are 13-14 when we allow 130 yards+ since 2020 in the regular season. We allowed 447 yards rushing to Baltimore in two games last year These are the outputs we have allowed in the playoffs: 2020: 163, 150, 114 (L) 2021: 89, 182 (L) 2022: 42, 172 (L) 2023: 106, 146 (L) 2024: 79, 176, 135 (L) So do the math. 13-14 in the regular season when we allow 130+. We have allowed 130+ in 7 of 12 playoff games. In 4 out of 5 of our playoff losses.
  11. Disagree with the 3T / 1T. For our system, it can make all the difference in the world. If you can get a good 1 tech Bernard will become a Pro Bowl LB. We want that guy for the playoffs so teams can't run on us. Regular season it isn't as critical because we always play with a lead. But against good teams stopping the run matters.
  12. One this is for certain, we will or we won’t, and that goes for either way.
  13. He thought we walking into Econ 101 and it ended up being English 101. New words can be exciting to use.
  14. Oligrachy....you fool. Your handler is the same as what you think your enemy is. He just sold the sellable.
  15. We want a trickling demise. Like the urinary flow transitioning from a young man to an old man. We want Miami to slowly and methodically inch closer to permanent flaccidness. While nobody is any wiser for several years. "Tua" Tank if you will.
  16. Some things in life show how disconnected you're from what is real and what is not real (I understand you MAGA's claim to be the experts at this). If your point here was to show how his approval rate increased among the demographic more likely to have voted for him or using methodology that is subject to sample size problems then so be it. I can't help if one person declares something and another repeats it. But if you ACTUALLY believe his nationwide polling numbers are better you have transcended into another level of bias idiocy that I didn't think was capable of being reached.
  17. It’s Lee Evan’s. Diggs already showed us what a Moulds/Reed style WR could do with Allen. Not to imply they’re the same. But bigger body types. All around great athletes. Polished. I don’t see any of the three bringing something massively different. High end number 1 style play is what all three would bring. What we have never seen with Allen is a WR he can’t over throw. Evan’s was probably the only one in my lifetime who played here I felt that way about. Maybe Lofton as well, but he was a bit more aged by the time he came here. For the type of guy we saw while they played here, it’s Evan’s. Moulds would be second (my opinion).
  18. Points allowed per game Bill defenses / Miami defenses 1990: 6th / 4th 1991: 19th / 24th 1992: 14th / 11th 1993: 5th / 24th Not exactly some massive edge towards Miami. Nor was saying our WR core was vastly superior to Duper and Clayton. We had Reed and a declining Lofton (who was clearly till very strong a few of those years). I can't say Beebe is what turns the tide. Now our run game and Thurman, that was a serious advantage. But does Miami even use Thurman remotely the same as we did? Probably not. The idea that Marino would have somehow gave us all these Super Bowls and Kelly sucks is laughable to be honest. Sure Marino had one of the prettiest balls we have ever seen, best releases on top of it. He was a god QB for just passing. But something was missing that Jim had over him. Call it moxie, call it leadership, grit, whatever. Dan never had it and Jim was it.
  19. https://www.pro-football-reference.com/leaders/pass_yds_career.htm Factoring in era, it would be very hard to not put Kelly in the Top 20. I would even say top 15. Obviously this list is saturated by more modern QB’s taking advantage of rule changes. But Kelly still ranks at 32 and it is VERY easy to disqualify at least half the player ahead of him on obvious grounds. Now if we want to start getting into the Otto Grahams of the world, sure, but I don’t know how you can compare those guys. But would I take Jim over say, Terry Bradshaw, Troy Aikman, Phil Simms, Esiason, Fouts, Rivers, on it goes. The point is even not being in the class of Marino and Elways still leaves plenty of room to be in the top 15. At which point how overrated can he be?
  20. You mean he tried to convince himself that he still had a future with millions of dollars involved vs a direct path to jail? Given he killed himself it doesn't appear like he was managing his thoughts on the subject in a very healthy way.
