  1. Non NFL gm draft boards are worth little. Jack Campbell was the 18th pick last year. Bills fans are still waiting for him to drop to 60 in the second round. If you like a guy, you can bet you're not alone. They aren't bringing in Tez because they think he'd be a nice addition late in the 4th round. They are interested.
  2. I like Tez....a lot. He's smooth. He's fast. His highlights have the "pop" factor that Troy's don't have. I was on the Troy Franklin train for a long time because that blazing wideout who can run those deep crosses strikes me as the final piece after the Samuel signing. But Troy leaves me a bit cold. Perhaps it's his personality. Weight? Not sure what it is. Tez just works for me. If he went back to college and showed-out, you're talking a top ten pick. He's got BIG talent. I'd trade out the first, secure Tez early in the 2nd and breathe easy from there.
  3. I agree completely. The wi-fi was awful also. The Bills would get a sack, and I'd have no idea who. But my biggest complaint was how far away from the action I felt. I was in the top deck, but only the 3rd row. There were at least 30 rows behind me. The players looked tiny. Yes, it's stunning architecturally, but I found myself thinking bout the new place. I think they'll get it right.
  4. i think 12 hours to the states. 10 hours back. But I'm staying for a couple of weeks.
  5. Arriving from Tokyo 7:30 am, In-N-Out by noon, walk to game at 3:00. It's my own personal Super Bowl.
  6. Who's expectations? Yours? They didn't fail to meet my expectations, and I promise I'm as big of a fan as you are. They were 13-3 last year. Did you expect higher? They won a playoff game. After a perfect storm of unfortunate incidents, they ran out of gas. Happens to the best of us. As long as they make the playoffs and give themselves a fighting chance, my expectations are met. My love is not conditional on a Super Bowl....although that's coming regardless of your expectations.
  7. Four full pages and only a single "Where's The Roof?" Also minimal mentions of location and taxes. Look at us. We're growing. We're becoming so big and strong.
  8. Hodgins will be better than Davis Zach Moss was a great pick The Diggs extension was a mistake (???) Beane should not trade up for Quinnen Williams There is no way they are not resigning Edmunds Ed Oliver would be gone after his 5th year
  9. I hang my hat on being a contender year in and out. The only way to win the Super Bowl is to consistently go to the playoffs. They do that. And I agree with you on Allen. He is ONE of the best. The best has won it twice recently. Allen will figure it out. My NBA comp for him is Giannis. He was doubted up until he finally won it (in his 8th year). Joker just won it in his 8th year. Sensing a pattern?
  10. Wildly underachieved with what he's got?? They were 13-3 last year. Only 1 team gets to win it all. What's he got anyway? It's a good roster, but nobody is shaking in their boots. They could get hot and win it all. There's about 6 teams who could. This idea that either you win the super bowl or you are wildly underachieving is silly. He's won 4 playoff games in the last 3 years in a loaded conference. They'll eventually win it all. It's a process. And as lifelong Bulls fan, they lost to the Pistons twice in the playoffs, and finally in Jordan's 7th season, they won it all.
  11. Again, you are equating being pissed off with wanting to win.
  12. This is just silly. The main issue I have with Digg's is walking out of the locker room as a captain. This idea that rest of the guys are soft, and only Diggs truly wants to win is insulting. Every guy on that wants to win, and walking out on your teammates speaks to immaturity more than wanting to win. If you can't stomach the other guys, I suggest a new team. I'm so sorry you have to put up with this infuriating group of players who somehow marshmellowed their way to a 13-3 season last year, and are clearly top 5 heading into the season this year.
  13. What on Earth would make you say that? Is it the strategic free agent signings? The high level draft picks? Coming off a 3 loss season? The return of a Hall of Fame pass rusher? Another year with a top 3 quarterback? I mean, you are using your precious time on Earth on a Bills fan site. And you took the time to post, so clearly you care about the team. Just wondering what about this year seems so foreboding that you bring up the EJ years? Sorry, I was responding to this guy.... 1 hour ago, Bills!Win! said: This year I’m the least excited I’ve been about the Bills since the EJ Manuel days…
  14. If Allen goes down for the season, we are indeed cooked. But in a playoff game, for a couple of drives? Pacheko ripped off a 40 yard run on their penultimate drive. Is Cook or Harris not capable of that? Aren't Diggs and gang better than Kadarius Toney and gang. Henne completed a 4 yard pass to seal the game, and everyone went nuts. Good for him....seriously. But is Kyle Allen that bad that he can't put together a good drive and a game sealing 4 yard completion when called upon?
  15. My contention is that they are both going nowhere.
  16. I appreciate this take, but you conveniently left off the disparity in their total tackles. It's massive. I wish Ed was Kyle. Kyle was special. I have been defending the Ed signing, but if there is a Kylesque player in the draft next year...please jump on him!!
  17. So you won't budge.....and you're going with the Chad Henne would lead this fantastic Chiefs roster to a Super Bowl take??
  18. Are you sure about superior? Have you seen their WR room? No Mahomes No Superbowl. It's that simple.
  19. I'm a Chicago guy. I grew up with Michael Jordan leading the Bulls. It took him 7 years to win a title. What you see as failure, I see as process (and not In McD speech). The Bills are 4-3 in the playoffs over the past 3 years, and got past the divisional round in 1 of those years. It sounds like you are planning to lose because it fits your narrative that we will ultimately fail. My narrative is a championship is on the way. I bet I'm right.
  20. With Mahomes....they won the Super Bowl. But that's not your point. Your point is who are the Bills without their best player. And I ask you, who are the Chiefs without Mahomes?
  21. We have unfortunately lost the power rankings going on within your head while accidently stumbling to a 13-3 record on the field.
  22. I wish we were the Chiefs, who are an absolute juggernaut without Mahomes
  23. Oops!! I forgot Knox. And I'll stand by his contract until the end. I love that kid. Whenever there was an injury on offense, I'd think....please not Knox. Drafting Kincaid changes nothing about that contract. It just makes us better.
  24. Good Take!! In Beane I Trust. How many games did we lose last year? Oh yea.....Three (and 2 were flukes). We ran out of gas in the playoffs after a perfect storm of disasters. When we are no longer a sure fire top 5 roster going into a season, then I'll listen to the backseat gm's here. But how on Earth can someone at this point believe they see or know something that this current regime just doesn't get? p.s. At first glance I didn't like the signing either. But again, I. Trust. Beane.
  25. Clueless take. It really is. Who has he overrated and signed? I'll wait. 2017 He signed Milano, Tredavious, and Dawkins to extensions (and those were guys he did not draft) 2018 He signed Josh Allen, Taron Johnson, and Siran Neal to extensions 2019 Ed Oliver signed So who has he overrated and paid?? Ed doesn't count because you're suggesting a pattern. I'm still waiting.
