When Keon finally finishes his 40 yard dash from his combine, then I'll make jokes. But until then, I think it's a little premature.

I was one of 6 boys in my family. I never felt my parents didn't spend enough time with me. But they also didn't parcel out x amount of minutes per child.by themselves. Sometimes we actually did things altogether as a family at the same time. What an ingenious set of parents I had!

My apologies. When I read the article, all I thought about was how coaches and players all talk about making first downs and keeping the chains moving. I didn't realize there was a show called "Moving the Chains." My bad.

People will still say that the computers have been hacked. "Those darn (insert the political party, football team, or country you dislike) are in on the fix!" People will always find someone or something to blame loss on.

The NFL apparently is looking at electronic means for measuring first down yardage. NFL to test optical tracking system for line-to-gain rulings in preseason with eyes toward 2024 implementation - CBSSports.com* *Dang! I can't get the title to become a linky thingy!

I think you are confusing the word "misspent" for "idy!lic". -

I've heard of his fan club: Dee's Nutz! -
Jim Otto, legendary Center for the Raiders dies at 86 #00
RangerDave replied to Chandler#81's topic in The Stadium Wall
I remember when I was a kid and I got his football card. I was reading the names of the players I got to my dad. Each card had the player's number and then his name. When I read Otto's card to my dad, I read it as "Oo Jim Otto". I thought, "What a weird first name!" As a high school soccer goalie years later, I chose the number "00", maybe to make it up to Otto? -
Marquez Valdes-Scantling meeting with the Bills (UPDATE: Signed)
RangerDave replied to HappyDays's topic in The Stadium Wall
Yeah, it's like the Bills think having 5 WR 3/4s is the equivalent of having one WR1 and one WR2. Do they also think dating two 5's is the equivalent of dating a 10? -
Maybe if he was calling his own plays, he would learn what actually works and what doesn't. Being an on-the-field coach could be very good for his development.

Coleman wearing a hoodie under his jersey...in May... with the temps in the 60's... I hope he doesn't plan on wearing a puffy under his jersey in December! 😄

Draft Analysis - We're All Debi from Depew
RangerDave replied to hondo in seattle's topic in The Stadium Wall
No, but the one from Dallas is! -
Maybe they drafted him so that we'd have one player who is not jet-lagged next time we play in England?

So, our designated "tackle-eligible" player?? What's the line on how many TD's he gets this year?

Rd 5, Pick 141: C Sedrick Van Pran-Granger
RangerDave replied to section122's topic in The Stadium Wall
I hope he is a starter and Chris Brown never has to mention his name. When Centers get named, it usually ain't for anything good. -
Live 2024 NFL Draft thread - Rounds 4-7 (Do NOT tip the Bills pick)
RangerDave replied to SDS's topic in The Stadium Wall
Don't like it. Don't like it at all. At my age, I will never remember all of his names. 🙄 -
Live 2024 NFL Draft thread - Round 1 (Do NOT tip the Bills pick)
RangerDave replied to Simon's topic in The Stadium Wall
Usually it is because another team is also bidding for that pick and you think they will take your guy. It is a defensive move to block anothetr team from taking who you want. I think? -
Live 2024 NFL Draft thread - Round 1 (Do NOT tip the Bills pick)
RangerDave replied to Simon's topic in The Stadium Wall
I don't understand their delay. They've only had, what, 4 months to figure it out and they need another 10 minutes? -
How good is my O-line??

Pegulas selling 25% of the Bills, per Tim Graham
RangerDave replied to Roundybout's topic in The Stadium Wall
Yes, indeed. Getting 25% of the annual profits, plus 25% of the sale of the team in the future is a great investment. I'd do it, but my wife has other ideas for our retirement funds.... -
I agree that he made some amazing plays and that the Bills were better with him for 4 years. I just don't consider him a "fierce competitor" based on his giving up on certain plays, even if the first down was already made. I'm glad we had him for those years, but I'm not crying that he's gone now. He just frustrated me at times.
-
He wanted to win, no doubt about that. But I won't miss the way he dove to the ground or ran out of bounds, leaving valuable yardage on the table, just to avoid a hit. I understand wanting to make your career last, but I expect a fierce competitor to fight for yards.

Can Beane teach Adams how to do this with Skinner?

Chart of the last time a team drafted a ___ in the top 2 rounds
RangerDave replied to DJB's topic in The Stadium Wall
If the Bills had not traded their first round pick for Diggs, they probably would have drafted a WR in the first that year. Also, having Poyer and Hyde reduced the need for a Safety in those first two rounds for quite a while.
