  1. $20 is better than nothing but it still is a little cheap when we’re talking about a $4B organization. Many fans online are laughing at the idea of billionaire owners hiring random fans as day laborers for pithy wages. It makes the team look cheap. $25 PSL - personal shoveling license It never was about Lake Erie. It was all ablif about money. Terry didn’t want to spend all his money on a new stadium, so they drafted up a modest proposal for NYS
  2. I don’t think weather is everything but this group just don’t seem to like to play in cold weather. During the broadcast is was reported that the team shipped over 3,500 pounds of cold weather gear. Keep in mind we’re talking 27 degree weather which is cold, but it’s not like it was sub zero temps. The larger issue is that Miami struggles against stronger teams and some of these games have taken place in cold weather. But I also don’t think the weather narrative is nothing either.
  3. Between players like Kraft, Wicks, Doubs, Reed and Watson Green Bay has an assortment of solid weapons. Also I think Josh Jacobs is still really good. Love is the wildcard. If he plays like he did against Miami they will be a tough out for anyone. I think you are right about Miami’s offense. Everyone is raving about the passes to Achane and Jonnu Smith but I think teams would gladly give them receptions if it means the balls not going to Hill and Waddle. It also makes me wonder what’s going on with Hill. Is he starting to show some decline? Or is he just not getting ball in Miami’s newest version of offense?
  4. Yeah that 1-16 stat is incorrect. The real number is 3-14 - though the point still largely is the same. The three wins are Baltimore and Buffalo which took some pretty crazy circumstances to get the W and Dallas last season. If you watch Miami in pre-game footage the players look like they are freezing. I remember this last year in Kansas City and then again tonight. I don’t think the cold is the only reason they lost but this group of players seems to be bothered by it to some effect
  5. Tremaine Edmunds is still 22 years old!!!!
  6. He’s an interesting prospect because he has all the physical tools to make amazing plays and he shows flashes but also has too many boneheaded moments. Watch how many bad sacks he has taken this season. That’s to be expected from a rookie QB for sure, but it happens far too often. It seems to me like he’s poorly coached. If they get a better head coach in the building I think you’ll see Williams do big things next season
  7. When you have 3 QB’s…. You don’t have 1
  8. Hopefully this doesn’t change this season
  9. I’ve been very unimpressed with Houston. Defense has good players but collectively they can’t stop anyone. Also Stroud has taken a downturn and it seems like he really misses Diggs as a safety blanket. Remember last season how Bobby Slowik almost became a head coach? I don’t think that happens next season
  10. It doesn’t matter because it’s going to be a tough game either way. There’s not really an easy opponent in the playoffs. Even a team like Miami, who I feel has benefitted from an easy schedule as of late, will be a tough opponent. It’s not always easy to beat a divisional opponent twice in a season. Three times is even harder. My hope is that the next few weeks will allow the team to be battle-tested and that they’ll get to the playoffs as healthy as possible
  11. There was a follow-up to this report from a Jets reporter, I believe Rich Cimini who said Johnson wasn’t serious by that suggestion. I tend to agree with what you wrote. Even after the bad loss to Denver, the Jets still had life at 2-3 and were taking on what appeared to be a struggled 3-2 Bills football team. Benching Rodgers then would make zero sense
  12. It wasn’t just Kelce. Mahomes, Reid and a few others tried to minimize the loss. Some media even tried twisting into the idea that a loss was a good thing for the team. It’s all BS because you know that Patrick “you robbed us of greatness” Mahomes especially wanted to go 20-0. It reminds me of someone who worked really hard to prepare for a final job interview and when the don’t get the job they said “eh, I never really wanted to job anyway.”
  13. No idea - all I know is that is exactly how the Ravens slowed the Bills offense this season
  14. NE loss probably isn’t happening How would this happen? Chiefs would get the bye and it would be the Bills playing the Ravens
  15. Tough to tell with Shannahan. He plays these stupid injury games with players. Remember how McCaffrey was a game-time decision week 1?
  16. It’s not like this is unique. Fans have been “torturing” and hanging mascots for decades. I have an old NFL Films yearbook video from the early 90’s and it shows a Bills fan hanging a Dolphins plush while another beats on it. This wasn’t any kind of statement other than that they hate the Miami Dolphins football team.
  17. They also have former Notre Dame WR Lake Dawson who’s interviewed for GM jobs as well.
  18. Yes that’s exactly right. Not only do teams not fear playing our WR’s in M2M coverage but they’ll often dedicate a player to spy Josh. So it’s one less player in coverage. This defense was a death wish when Diggs was playing here from 2020-2020. I do think Cooper will help big once he gets fully healthy. You saw him make KC pay for the their coverage last week I believe teams are spying him because they aren’t overly worried about WR’s beating man coverage
  19. Terrance Gray is the black guy you see in the coaches box w/ binoculars. Since he’s a minority, if he takes the Jets job the Bills get a 3rd comp pick. But they get one..::not two
  20. 2 extra 3rd rounders? Isn’t just one when a minority coach/GM leaves an organization for a promotion?
  21. “Ravens should not lose more that 1 game?” They can lose to any of the three teams you mentioned without it being considered an update. As far as the Texans I think the team is highly overrated. Even at full strength they never really blew teams away. I think Collins great and Stroud and Mixon can be good, but the team doesn’t scare me. I can even see them losing to Miami.
  22. Nick Wright actually made a good point about the departures of these players. He said that in the offseason people were overacting to the losses of these players assuming they were playing at the top level they once did. His argument was that in reality 2024 they weren’t losing that much - aside from name value.
  23. I saw all of these excuses too. This is such BS. There was a lot of complaining about Hollins not being called for OPI on th Samuel’s TD and then about holds not being called on Allen’s TD. This is hilarious because no offensive line has gotten away with more holds that the KC interior. Also, don’t for a second buy how players and coaches are downplaying the undefeated season - they totally wanted to go 18-0 just like how they want the three-peat.
  24. Makes sense… $400,000,000 for the Pegula fam. Too poor to pay for a roof
  25. I don’t remember anything Ed or anyone else on the DL did in that game. But you can’t deny that Oliver was invisible the last time the teams met
