  1. Funny that people think the league will cheat for a mid-size Midwest city over the vaunted SF 49ers. Poster boys of the 80’s. oh. They overturned the KC catch. Conspiracy theory over.
  2. Is he that bad or is SF ‘s defense just that good today? I don’t see him getting help. Who is open lately? Football is a one game take all.
  3. He is going to have to run a bit. His OL has been terrible.
  4. My friends from Philadelphia said it’s all Reid’s fault. LOL.
  5. Throw was late and behind him. Catch not made. Interception. SF defense makes another play
  6. An edge rusher might be first priority, especially since this is a very good year for WR.
  7. Sammy Watkins having a nice game. Mahomes so far no. Sack and pick. But I’m pulling for him.
  8. I clinked the link and hit Flutie Flakes
  9. If he is a “Swiss army knife” type of player then he may be a luxury pick for us. I looked at the film and he will be a excellent #2 on a team with a great #1. Tee Higgins looks more like what we need. But I am no scout so I’ll defer to Beane. WRs are tough to figure out. Plus McBeane look for “Buffalo guys” so there is that element. I see the biggest needs as: 1. Big physical beast of a WR that is a real #1 and a threat at all times. 2. Edge rushes LB/DE - replace Lorax and add to sack total. With so many good WRs in this draft I could see picking defense first, then WR. I could see trading down to increase our picks in round 2 and 3.
  10. We need to win our division and get home playoff games. I talked to a Pats* fan yesterday about the AFC playoffs. He is worried about the Bills. He said if Allen can control himself and take another step forward the Bills are a legit contender. He is impressed with Beane and McD and he expects that we will add weapons and improve this off season. In typical Pats* fashion he is ready to move on from Brady and he is confident that Billy will find a QB to keep them in contention
  11. I am no college football expert and from reading mock draft information there look to be 3 WR that could go in the top 20 and another 2-3 that could go in the first round. The ones slated for late first are all pretty big guys too. With that I might like look at who is there at 22 and get BPA for WR or OLB/DE --- maybe trade down a few spots if there are 3 WR's on the board and pick up an extra 2 or 3. TE, RB, CB and OT are other positions of interest so having an extra 2 or 3 would be nice.
  12. 9 other teams passed on him. He had 18 private workouts and still went 10th. Time to move on.
  13. Mahommes is the best right now.
  14. challenged yes. Now let’s beat the Pats* and dominate the division.
  15. I hate those kind of calls.
  16. Yes, we need weapon on offenses. We get that. Remember, they completed the tear down last year and made the playoffs this year. Another good draft and a few key free agents and we are challenging for division finally.
  17. I want to keep him because he is still very good AND has been here for the transformation, I think he would be a valued leader to step up in Lorenzo’s absence. 3 yrs and reasonable dollars and I think it’s an easy decision to keep him.
  18. Right on. Most Bills fans know that Dimarco’s value was ST play, locker room leadership, and professional manner in which he prepares himself. You can’t blame the player for the decision to throw a bomb to the fullback. I trust McD to decide if DiMarco can still contribute enough to earn a spot on the roster.
  19. Probably more than a few. Leadership should never be underestimated. It would be great if the leadership came from the core starting players but the Bills team development is just 3 years and not there yet. Think back to Kelly, Hull, Talley, Smith - it took years for them to fully take the reins as leaders. Allen, Edmunds and other in the young core are still very young to take that role on. They learn it from guys like Lorenzo, DiMarco, Gore, etc.
  20. Maybe so and that is precisely the dilemma today. Is it more wrong to slap a female cops butt than a male? What about a black male cop? Why should any of that even matter?
  21. I see this stuff, and then reading the comments to the tweets, it is clear to me that the line between right and wrong, good behavior and bad, has been moved and is blurred. Today people see things so differently and social media provides a forum. Allowances have always been made for certain people, for celebrity, money, etc. OBJ is a troubled soul.
  22. Cool SAC logo but probably coincidence. Not a fan of Red and White alone.
  23. Trent is highly possible. Long is a given. Kroft may be gone but later, after camp. Hauschka and Roberts both stay. Star stays.. DiMarco has love from McD so probably not going. Yeldon and Smith depends on who we pick up to improve those positions. Shaq could go as well (contract).
  24. Adjusting to your personnel to make them the best they can be is the essence of coaching.
