  1. Wish Dark all the best in his recovery. Andy Dalton was clutch to get them the win. In that division the Cowboys can win with Dalton.
  2. Bills 34 Titans 20 I think they will play on Tuesday. I hope this works out for the players.
  3. TV is not the only thing parents of young children need to monitor. You might be surprised to see how much different the public schools are now. Looking at it from my lens some is for the better but not all of the change is good.
  4. This thread made me think of football commercials when I was a kid in the 60’s, laying on the floor on Sunday watching the games on tv. Lincoln Mercury - beautiful women in slinky dresses laying on top of luxury cars All season radial tires with a Dad driving his family in snow and ice and doing it safely. Prestone Radiator Fluid - put a hole in the can and the fluid stops the leak in seconds. Wow Sexy women watching men shave with Nozema “medicated comfort shave” cream. Can’t wait until my beard grows like Dad and Uncles. Investment firms and insurance policies - don’t know what they are talking about. Beer - lots of Miller, Bud, even Sclhlitz. Maybe a can mooch a few swigs later? Cigarettes - Marlboro country, Lucky Strike, Kool. Airline flights with happy and well dressed people going to exotic places (Pan Am, TWA ) Car Batteries starting in arctic conditions with the lights left on. Pretty girls chasing you because you are wearing Hi Karate. Midas Mufflers, Dodge Trucks, Chevy Camaro, Ford Mustang - I bought them all when I got older. Like today, it was a volatile and highly political time, but football was still a diversion.
  5. LBGTQ history? History? This is about product expansion. the NFL growing its fan base into a demographic with money to spend.
  6. Comparing teams from different eras is nit easy to do. Let’s see this team get there and then have the conversation.
  7. You have to take them as they come to you. Now let’s go there and pound the crap out of them.
  8. I didn’t know his game fell so much until I saw this thread. He played a great game against us in the playoffs last year. He made several big plays. For him that was only 6 games ago.
  9. Pats* are garbage without Cam. Bills getting on props on National TV. Bills on the rise. Pats* gonna go down.
  10. Great execution. As previously stated, if this does not work then everyone is calling for DaBoll’s head Just don’t try this against the Pats*. Bellichek saw it yesterday. Im betting he spent his Sunday off studying the Bills.
  11. I give him an A. No need for the minus, he came back after an injury. Nice road win against a tough team.
  12. That drive ended with a penalty and 2 drops. Another bad series in the 3rd quarter. Tine for the defense to wake up and makes some plays.
  13. No to Shaq. A little to Phillips. Yes, to Star. Star helps the LBs a lot.
  14. Beasley. Big play. Allen seeing things.
  15. I am pumped about this game. Bills defense, need you to show. Josh Allen continue to have fun and shine. I think we can win impressively.
  16. Rock star? He is a classic example of how unfair the music business is. Terrible musician and songwriter. Watching Talas play at Kenmore East High School dances was far better than anything Bon Jovi could do.
  17. Why do you guys care what these crackpots have to say?
  18. Scouts can’t always measure: Heart. Intelligence. Willingness to work hard. Willingness to learn. He has all of that. He had the ability and courage to gain acceptance first, and then lay it out there and lead by example. The people around him trust him and he makes them better.
  19. Hyde is an effective player and team leader. I’m going to go with McDermott and Beane on this one.
  20. I like rotating both Kroft and Knox. I don’t care who starts either. Its very early to talk draft but LB, CB and DL are more important than TE right now.
  21. I think a lot of people here should now see what Star brings to the defense. This defense has one star player, and that is Tre. There are a lot of good players on this defense, and if they play the correct scheme they should be a strong unit playing “team defense”. This defense does not have a game changing LB or DL. Maybe Oliver develops? Maybe Edmunds develops? Both show flashes but are inconsistent. Milano is a player we need to keep. We need another quality LB and a beast on the edge rush. I expect next years draft will focus on defense.
  22. I said “dumb rule, but called correctly “ in my post. I bet that tackle draws a flag against Brady and other top tier QBs. I seriously doubt Brady gets a flag for complaining about it either.
  23. Rams are tough. They knew they could run on us and they stuck with it. Our defense was terrible on the drive right after 28-3. They offered no resistance. Then the crazy PI call and the wheels literally fell off. We looked similar to the Bills in the second half versus Houston. Again we got away from Singletary for awhile, until the last drive. Thankfully, we pulled it out. Allen made some huge plays on the last drive. Beasley was clutch. The PI was the correct call. The Rams were fortunate to not get more penalties IMO. The Rams just gave the rest of the league a nice blueprint on how to run on us. McD and Frazier need to get to work.
  24. It is clear to me we miss Star and Lorenzo. Add that Edmunds played hurt yesterday and was very marginal against the run, to often he filled a running lanetoo soon and was easily sealed off from the run. After Tre, our corners are mediocre. Our pass rush is not consistent. This defense can be good but they are far from great.
  25. The terrible interception call was far worse than the PI. The PI was a text book example. Consider the field position, the corner made a cute and obvious attempt to keep the WR out of the end zone.
