    I know right?

     

    They stopped running right at Mt. Davis who Morse could not budge and started using stretch plays to get Davis moving then cutback lanes.

     

    The kid's a wall, but he ain't fleet of foot to change direction so if they insist on running they have to get him moving to create some gaps.

     

     

     

    I honestly am fine w motor And moss as our backs. They’re both talented and capable and fairly durable. Our oline needs addressing and like you said proper movement on run plays that plays to their strengths as rbs

    I think it’s more about complete incompetence over game fixing. These guys out there are a lost cause. 

    That’s simply impossible for me to believe. They want you to think this way, but there’s legitimately no reason a multi billion dollar entity like the nfl would have anything but the best full time highly paid and trained officials.

     

    Instead they have part time people, many are sons of or related to long time refs. Not choosing the best of the best, but a tight group of puppets who make the calls they’re told to when they’re told to.

    Uh oh….. Tyrann Mathieu: Chiefs might have one of the most toxic fan bases in all of sports

    worse.   way worse.   Bills Mafia/This Board turns into Bills Firing Squad after every loss, without fail.   You can set your watch to it. 

    I agree with that, but I think we at least keep it contained to our little world and don’t lash out at them publicly to try to embarrass them. I think the difference is we actually care about our players as people too whereas some fan bases, maybe the Chief’s, almost use the players as a means to an end—feeling better about themselves through their team’s performance. So they can go from #1 fan to #1 hater play to play. 
     

    Again, I think the difference is we keep our bipolar behavior and reactions in house. I haven’t publicly seen a Bills fan deride or embarrass a player, but clearly other team’s fan bases do sometimes.

    Bingo. Promotes narcissism. Approval seeking behavior. 

     

    But it's almost like an excuse. "I'm not just arrogantly showing off my rear end, I'm making a dance video to show how goofy and fun-loving I am." 

     

    It's very see through, but it's been promoted as the cool thing to do. To me it exposes neediness. 

    Same, that’s how I see it. It’s super sad that ‘clout’ which I guess is a combination of influence and money and visibility is so important today. Almost a new currency. Pride vs humility at war and pride is taking the cake. Not a surprise given how hard it’s pushed. You nailed it w the neediness aspect. People don’t put as much importance anymore on what they think and feel about themselves as what others think and feel about them. 
     

    Maybe this was always the case en masse, but I think it’s worse than it ever was. Plus social media was built using the same techniques as casino games, dopamine hits with every ‘like’ and retweet or whatever. So it’s an addiction essentially. It’s releasing the same chemicals as some drugs and just overall feelings of ‘good’ do. Kinda scary tbh

    I am just so glad the Allens are in Buffalo and not the Mahomes

    I mean I think it's a bit much to assume all this.

     

    At the same time I continue to be confused as to the purpose of these TikToks. Like every one I've seen him do seems specifically designed to make him look like an entitled douchebag. I mean is that the point, is that what he's going for?

    Honestly that is what it is, but they consider it a good thing now apparently. So it is pretty confusing for people like me and I assume you who aren’t tuned into that specific little world. Just attention seeking, skill or talent or being interesting isn’t required at all anymore. Very bizarre. I have no social media despite being in a similar age group. To me it promotes narcissism and is a total distraction.

    What was up with Beasley today?

    I was there. 

    There's a vast difference in the sound of "E" for "Bease" and "ooo" for "boo". 

    I heard a distinct undercurrent of "oooos" yesterday. 

    This absolutely is political for some people. It's sad to see fans boo their own player, he's the best slot receiver in the game. 

    Didn’t mckelvin for a simple muffed kickoff? I would absolutely expect he has at this point. Especially given the sentiment just within TBD on what Cole should and shouldn’t be doing and saying
