  1. some beers, like kettle sours for example, are served in a tulip style glass.
  2. I’m still amazed that the internal culture that exists at OBD is so strong that players consistently seem to resign for slightly less than market rate. Really happy for Taron, that’s life changing money for him and well deserved. Now do like Marshawn and take care of your body, your mentals and your chicken.
  3. If we could take over this game like the Nashville one from 2 years ago that would be sublime. Go Bills!
  4. He's good, based purely on the eye test our ST play has been above average since he came onboard. Haack does look slow AF kicking punts, but that slow wind up + his better than average hang time has meant that he never outkicks our coverage which in a punt return situation is exactly what you want.
  5. Agreed, it's a live ball as soon as it crosses 10 yards past the kicking team setup point. That being said I don't think he was even in a position to be able to reach it before the entire scrum reached the area where the ball ultimately landed. That ball basically went airborne and just dead hung for 1-2 seconds near the 25 yard line. When it finally became evident what was actually happening it would have been really dangerous to try and rush the scrum to make the catch. You really needed the hands team on the field for that kickoff in hindsight.
  6. I would hardly call the second one a blunder, that was just a freak occurrence/force of nature. I'll eat my shoe if the WTF actually had that installed as a special teams play to make the ball just dead hover at the top if its arc, bounce at the 25 and then bounce back into the arms of Dustin Hopkins.
  7. We need to install that crazy double punt thing the Seahags pulled off yesterday.
  8. I’m less worried about the weather and more about the crowd noise. Arrowhead gets loud.
  9. yeah Troy that was at Foxboro. Has Aikman been enjoying too many edibles? he’s definitely realized it this game.
  10. Maybe thinking of the Buffalo Washington SB? That one ended 37-24 though.
  11. I'm inclined to agree. Texans and Bears are not offensive powerhouses. For all the offensive firepower that people talk up for the Vikings they have an irritating tendency (if you're a Vikings fan) to just fart away a couple of games every season (see: Bills 2018, Bears 2019, Colts 2020)
  12. I mean is he getting a pass? Also last year JA and Bills really tried to downplay the shoulder issue and didn't address it or make any noise about it. No sense in wallowing in self pity. Just go out there and win games.
  13. I dunno, he was out there for us in the AFCCG and he couldn't stop a soft breeze. I think regardless of whether he's there or not this Sunday the Bills defense is still well equipped to stop KC. Our defense is legit this year.
  14. If (big if) the Bills can execute I want to see slow, grinding drives that chew up clock and create a super lopsided TOP for Buffalo. The best defense (like the NE teams of old) is to keep Mahomes on the sideline and create anxiety and urgency to score points. Maximize our possessions, give them as few as possible and we waltz out of there with a win. Its basically how KC beat Buffalo the first time last year. They basically never let them have the ball, and when they did have it, they couldn't capitalize.
  15. The Bills (almost literally) limped into that game. No real running game, Zack Moss on IR, Diggs, Beasley and Davis hobbling around and getting pushed around by KC's DBs. In our first matchup we had equal issues. No Milano, weak DL, White coming off a back injury, Edmunds playing with a bum shoulder, Brown basically being a decoy/non-factor. Just wish we could play them at relatively good or full strength to get a real read. Feel like our last 2 matchups have been played with one hand tied behind our back.
  16. TIL that Diggs is currently the Bills leading receiver and I'm genuinely surprised that's the case. Man has over 300 yards receiving in first 4 games of the season and it just feels like it could be so much more.
  17. Yeah he royally destroyed that Eagles team, in what universe do you trade LeSean McCoy for Kiko Alonso and trade FOR Sam Bradford??!
  18. I don’t like it.
  19. It's a leverage play, you announce some guy is getting released the afternoon/evening before, but releases don't become official until 4pm day of. This signals to other teams "hey, if you want this guy, give us a call" This is pretty standard stuff.
  20. I would potentially add Nick Sirianni to that list and maybe David Culley.
  21. I feel like this is gonna be an odd cat/mouse game. The weakness of KC is their D, their strength is their O. Our strength is our D with our O being slightly weaker. How do you neutralize that on either side? Play small tactical ball, take the short stuff, good balanced attack between runs and short passes and play for TDs on long 6+ minute drives. For KC that's their gameplan because it keeps our D on the field, tiring them out. It keeps our O off the field where they're not dicing up their awful D. For us its the same game plan because it keeps KC's O on the sideline and gives our D time to rest to force KC to play small ball and settle for FGs. I wouldn't be surprised if both teams came into this game with a very similar gameplan, for very different reasons.
  22. There's not a snowball's chance in hell he signs a 4 year deal at age 31 and coming off some soft tissue lower body injuries. Any GM that does that should be fired on the spot. Boundary corners who primarily play man don't have a shelf life past their early 30s as the speed to keep up with outside wideouts drops off.
