If the Bills signed Watson knowing what the Browns knew, I’d gain thousands of hours of free time every year! I’ve been thinking how lucky Buffalo is to have sane and upstanding ownership. I’m thankful! Both Houston and Cleveland seem to have slime for owners and it shows. I’ve been spending time for work in Cleveland and found it a really cool place, with great food and stuff to do. This whole thing sucks for everyone there. The city’s national reputation is suffering from this due to one moronic family.

According to Fred Jackson’s Instagram. Here’s a salute to you, Fitz.

40 is impressive. At age twenty, I could eat about 35 wings at a sitting, and I was known as a huge eater in my family. (But Josh is 5 inches taller then me.) These days in my mid-forties, 10-15 wings is fine. With a lotta carrots and celery dipped in blue cheese. Couple thousand calories right there. Gotta love Josh. Hope he will slow down in his thirties though, before he needs a quadruple bypass!

Let’s get this season STARTED. Buffalo has 15-2 potential.

For as good as Josh is in the clutch (he has the ice cold gene), it's weird how many close games Buffalo lost last year. This season, expect a "regression" back to the mean--i.e. we should win a bunch of close ones.

She's hot but she does always hate on Josh. She's a huge fan girl of the Bengals so it's not about objectivity.

Would be cool to have him back as a number 5 receiver. He could come in on 10ish snaps per game. Could make plays as the forgotten man, while defenses are focused on Diggs, Davis, Crowder, McKenzie, Knox, and Howard.

That's my quarterback.

I used to love Al Michaels back in the Al, Frank and Dan MNF days, but the last couple years he seems kind of bored and above it all. Might be time for him to turn it in.

One guy I would love to see get more chances is Antonio Williams. Tough runner, good attitude. Wouldn't be surprised if he gets 500 yards and 5 TDs this season.

Very thankful for this guy! He keeps learning and changing, he is not stuck in a dogma. I hope late game strategy is next on his radar. 48 years young. Bring that Lombardi home, Sean! Everything you do and your effort is much appreciated. And the way your team respects you and players are flocking to Buffalo to play for you… says it all.

He’s still innocent until proven guilty in the USA. Maybe I’m a Buffalonian who has stereotypes about how they do things in Texas, but the Houston ownership and Tony Buzbee seemed out to destroy Watson’s career in a very old fashioned way.

I was a big Riddick fan that season, also Bruce, Conlan, Bennett, and Smerlas. I was 13. Had a t shirt with all those defensive guys on it that said “Bills Sack Club.” Good times

Buffalo plays a 4-2-5 on most downs. Von’s gotta be part of the front four, rushing from the edge, with Tremaine and Milano behind them. Otherwise wouldn’t there be a huge gap in the middle? You could call it a 3-3-5 too, with Von playing the Biscuit role.

Over on Instgram, McKenzie posted a nice tribute to Bease: "zee_thoven: Thank you for the wisdom, encouragement, laughs and just being a helluva teammate/brother to me. Love you ✊🏾❤️" And Cole replied like: "bease11: You know I got love for you big dog. Josh is in good hands. It’s been awesome to see you grow and take constructive criticism from me like a champ. That takes humility and I learned just as much from you as you may have from me if not more. Go show em what you’ve been ready for your whole life." Now that's a great guy. Whatever you feel about his vax stance, he's a stand up guy and he gave us all he had. I think this was the right choice for Buffalo, but I appreciate Beasley and all he did.

That’s the thing: they don’t make prudent moves. Trading away Hopkins for nothing? Alientating Watt and Watson, their other two stars? Why do you assume they are prudent professionals instead of the clown show they show every sign of being? PS I don’t think Watson did nothing shady, but I hardly think he’s the only player—or coach or owner—who has. And most of them never face lawsuits by the dozen like this. Pretty sure a lawyer with an agenda could cook up a bunch of suits against Bob Kraft alleging that his touched masseurs’ hands with his… you understand.

I am surprised no one mentions the Texans, as if this all happened to Watson in a vacuum. Just before these cases came up the news was all about the team's questionable decisions. They refused to hire the general managers their consulting firm recommended. Cal McNair had to apologize for racial slurs against Asians at a golf tournament. His dad was quoted as we "can't have the inmates running the asylum" about players taking a knee. Bill O’Brien, their coach, was talking about DeAndre Hopkins having too many “baby mamas” and then traded him to Arizona for peanuts. J.J. Watt said he had lost the team. Just a blizzard of bad-sounding stuff. Then the Texans didn't hire Eric Bienemy, who Watson wanted, and he started to engineer a trade to the Dolphins. He was making them look incompetent, which they were. Then the cases pop up, all brought by the same very powerful Houston lawyer, Tony Buzbee. Very weird timing.

He deserved to win the Super Bowl, this year. Darn it.

Why do people think this is a need? The Bills don’t need a wideout anywhere near as much as IOL and DE. Diggs and Davis dominated defenses in 2020, and when they had a chance to play together in ‘21. Why fix what isn’t broke?

Pooch kick was the right call, and probably was the call they made. Bass is very good at it. They would have had the ball at their own 20-30 yard line with 8-10 seconds on the clock. Dammit.

Feels like a classic case of Kay having a crush and Josh having a girlfriend, no? With Schrager it's just clickbait. Kyle is at least kind of consistent, supporting Allen. M-Rob is the best, though.

It's not that I don't agree with most of this, but it doesn't stop me from loving to watch football! I don't go to many games live anymore. When the Bills played the Raiders in the 1990 AFC Championship, my high school best friend and I bought nosebleeds for like 25 dollars and went! I hate that it's all about the luxury boxes now. But the whole US/global culture has gone that way. I don't see it as NFL specific. NFL football, for me, feels like one of the main continuties between my life now in my forties and my life as a kid in the late eighties, when I started watching the Bills.

If anything, I've gained tons of interest in the rest of the NFL since we started looking like a potentially great team again. I would date it to the Thanksgiving game against the Cowboys. Watched it with my whole family and the way we won that game was just joyous. Since then I've been watching the other teams to see how they stack up to the Bills. It's all much more relevant. If you didn't lose interest during the drought but are losing interest now, there may be something else going on!

Ross is a sleaze bag. (Know someone who was hired by him on a real estate project, totally unrelated to football.)

That and fifty cents will buy ya a cup of coffee (in 1975). But… This was our Super Bowl the Rams got, dang it!!!!
