I didnt say you were implying that, I'm saying it's a balance... Sorry to get you upset

There's a balance between letting a guy understand the risks of activities, and bubble wrapping players. If we were the franchise that doesn't let our guys do anything fun during the offseason, we're a franchise no one wants to play for

I have family in the NFL world and let me tell you - playing basketball in a charity game is one of the safer things these guys do. There is a higher chance of an injury lifting weights than they do dunking a basketball. These are testosterone fueled animals, they are crazy in the offseason. This stuff is much safer than letting these guys out on their own accord lol

So you can’t answer the question. lotta deflecting here

If early playoff exits are absolute failures, what do you call not making the playoffs 3 of the past 5 years? is there a word in the known universe that can explain that abomination? That’s surely worse than winning your division each of the past 5 years and at least making the playoffs

Have to win enough of them to have a chance to win the thing that matters. and they don’t win enough of them, we do

You can absolutely make fun of them, they have refused to address their Oline, and as a result it has ruined two of their prime Burrow seasons. now their lack of respect to their players has lost them Hendrickson, and their first round pick doesn’t want to play there unless they offer even just a normal contract. if you ask any NFL fan which team has been the best team of the past 5 years in the AFC behind the chiefs… lemme give you a hint, no one is saying the Bengals

Currently - people dont understand that Oliver is a hell of a player and some thing he is a replacement level starter. He isn't. From 2010-2020 - I always thought Robert Woods was someone who never really had the credit in Buffalo until he was gone. Sure hands, good blocker - I think some would look at him like they do Shakir now if he was with the Bills today in his prime

I’ll disagree on Watson. The defense held a team to 19 points in the 4 quarters. Your goal as a defense is to hold a team under 20. Offense completely sputtered in that second half, and the defense made a crucial 4th down stop to let them tie it up to force overtime. they also forced 3 turnovers against Lamar this year which helped the offense out a ton. burrow neither side of the team showed up, and rivers both sides played pretty even. chiefs games where Allen goes alien mode are the only real games where the defense has truly let the team down

TJ Sanders just seems like a guy who has that swagger about him. If he uses that to refine his game and stay confident, he could be a very good player.

This is the correct move. Watch one game from a nosebleed in November, or spend the same $2k and get a monster TV and soundbar plus the 30 case of Labatt? Easy choice

Agreed. They are below average at receiver, at their o line, on the d line and at backer. they are good at safety and corner, and their RB room looks good. They need Maye to take another step, and they need their team to handle Vrabel and his system, and that’s just to have a shot at wild card

Yea, expecting Fields to be anything close to a good enough starter to beat a Pitt D and outscore the Bucs O is not something I'd bet any money on. They will be 0-4 or 1-3 at best

If that's the case, I like how this plays out for Buffalo. Maybe 1 loss going into the bye with rookies learning the ropes. Come out of the bye week to an easy week followed up by KC with our PEP guys back. Miami week 10 isn't an issue, looking at 6-3 at worst as we get to the Bucs at home. My prediction? 12-5 or 13-4 and another division title

I expect them to be 0-4 after 4 weeks. Fields is 100% a downgrade from Rodgers, and I dont expect them to come in with some winning formula. Pitt tends to be good week1 (4-1 in the last 5 years), and if they bring Rodgers in, I could see there being a bit of a blowout for the Steelers. Buffalo is a loss Tampa in Tampa is a loss Miami in Miami is a loss Jets gonna Jet
