Jim

Topic kinda speaks for itself. Everybody was talking about how gassed our defense was at the end of last week's game. And when one considers what that means, it usually speaks of the poor pass rushers who just run out of gas. But errrr....isn't Seany's beloved rotational d-line scheme supposed to keep our half-assed defensive line talent "fresh" whereas other teams with actual star players, their guys get tired, so that's a win for us. I think McDermott needs to learn that the rotation is trash. Get good players, and get decent depth. Cuz trotting Vernon Butler out there or AJ Epenesa to spell whoever hasn't helped anybody. And likely has made the growth of Groot and Boogie a longer project as they haven't gotten on the field as much as they otherwise would have.

I'll take Flacco over Kelly if he wins us a Super Bowl. Jim had zero good Super Bowls. Joe had one.

Yep. Was talking to my wife and she pointed out how it seemed like everything in the NFL this year was upside down. Rodgers out. Brady out. Mahomes vanquished. Bills losing to Jags. Titans lose to Jets. Colts lose to Jags. But the one thing you can count on is that the Buffalo Bills fans will get their funking hearts broken. You can always count on that. I know this isn't life or death, but seriously, when is it our time? I feel like it never will be. I hope I'm wrong.

I think a lot of what happened today was the Chiefs got up big earlier. Pat was feelin' himself. Just like in the early season, he was feelin' himself and got sloppy. I think his hard work during the season went down the shitter when Patty started feeling himself. He didn't have that opportunity when the Bills are there matching him score for score. Just my feeling. Well, that and the fact that McDermott's awesome defensive line rotation is bull#### and that besides maybe Ed Oliver, we don't have a single guy even approaching game wrecker status on the line. But just wait, with the 25th pick we will pick another guy who can be inactive for four or five games and/or make three impact plays all season. Yay.

Yeah Bruce is the greatest. But this is a different game. Maybe I'm wrong and a long retired player could impart a lot of wisdom as far as what's going on when the young guy is on the field. But I'm skeptical.

Happy Jim is doing well. He's been a great spokesman for the Bills and the city of Buffalo... But it's time for him to remove himself from the stage. Him, Bruce, Thurman, all of them. Tasker doesn't count as he's actually working and doing a job that involves the team. But anyways, when I think about Bruce sending a note to Rousseau or whatever it was, I roll my eyes. I highly doubt that anything Bruce Smith (who hasn't played in the league since 2003) is gonna tell Greg Rousseau is gonna give him an edge he wouldn't get from all the coaching and words from his current teammates. I mean maybe Bruce could tell him about his experience playing against Tom Brady (yes Bruce actually played against him in '03, incredible!), but that's about it. I don't mean to be a dick, but c'mon. The '90s Bills were great, but they never topped the mountain, and I want more from this team. So when I heard announcers saying Allen may be the next Kelly, gag me. Never seen two such different QBs. Except maybe in the toughness department.

The thing I keep in mind is that I just don't think home field means what it woulda meant in a non-Covid season. Of course, a bye definitely wouldn't hurt though.

They indeed do. But if all three of us end up with the same record, for whatever the reason is we come out on top. I assume it would probably be their record against the AFC?

I think I might be being a bit ridiculous but... If us, the Chiefs and the Steelers all end up knotted at 13 and 3 at the end of the season guess who gets the number 1 spot? Yeah, you guessed it. The Buffalo Bills.

Chase Claypool from Notre Dame would actually be great if we could get him. He's big and I think he'd possibly be a real asset for Josh.
