[If you had the chance to work for the Bills, would you choose to be a player, coach or front office?]

I would pay to operate the yard sticks.

[Calling it now: You're all about to witness the arrival of Shakir]

I have to add my seldom heard voice to this thread.

I watched Shakir's college  highlights the night before TC in 2022 and hoped for early success. That would of course be unusual in Buffalo.

What i look for in a WR is someone who can catch the ball. He is as good as anyone with this.

What is exciting is the slipperiness after the catch.

Will he be a WR1, who knows? But he will be a weapon that Allen will trust.

[Week 8, Bucs v. Bills - GAME BALLS]

Game balls to all who are mentioned in this thread.

 

I would like to add that Shakir and Kincaid seemed to be having a coming out party last night.

 

I was more than impressed.

Considering the "old message board" was closed out and patients let out of asylum without having psychiatrists visit them regularly to update their medication.

 

Players are demoted for lack of effort often and do not pay back money already guaranteed so it should be same for players who perform more than which is expected.  Maybe he should have complained to agent that he did not have incentive clause written in contract.

 

I agree it was an asylum, There were no psychiatrists involved. At least in my case.

Sorry, that argument doesn't play.  When a contract is signed, its a deal.  Upside and downside risk for each side.  Peters could have gotten hurt for the last 2 years on the contract and still got paid..  That would have been a big loss to the Bills.  Expecting a new deal becasue it worked out better because of his performance, well, that was his downside and the Bills gain.  He voided that contract w bad attitude and great dsirespect for what a contract is.  Its always "fair" at the time of signing.  It can go either way after that in terms of who benefits.  Again, he broke trust with the Bills mafia.  I have considered him w/o character since that episode.

In Peters case the change in job status warranted a change in contract, both times. If any situation caused the Ralph is cheap talk, this was the time. 

At the time there was a lot of  "do you think you know more than the Bills do" on the old message board. I admit I did think I knew more than the Bills did. I knew more than the Bills did for 17 long years.

If you lowball a player of Peters talent, then you will get a team of low talent. That is disrespect for the Bills mafia.

 

[The "ball did not survive the ground" rule]

This is a stupid rule. The unwritten and unstated rule seems to that Poyer must take the ball home with him, take it to bed and preferably complete a sexual assault on the ball. Then it would be ruled an interception.

[Slow is smooth...smooth is fast]

I watched Shakir's highlight video the night before training camp started and I got very excited. He had a good TC, I thought.

The first game he played he looked shaky, especially his blocking.

Since then the switch is turned on. He looks smooth, silky smooth. 

[Other NFL Teams playing today not named Buffalo]

Peterman never saw a crowd of DBs he didn't want to throw into.

[Re-watching Old Games-- Bills @ Ravens, Sept 9th, 2018]

I've watched this game several times now. Mostly the second half. The main reason is JA's first appearance as a Bill.

It felt like a ray of sunshine on dark rainy day.

It's interesting to pinpoint the exact play Peterman lost his job with the Bills.

Also this was the game when the clock started ticking on Joe Flaco's career in Baltimore.

[Thoughts on draft]

One mock has the Bills getting Nakobe Dean at 25. I watched his highlights and was very impressed. He is an ILB who can go side to side, plug every open hole and can pass rush like a homing missile. Looks good in coverage as well. Sure looks like a Mahomes destroyer to me

[Who do you want as QB 2 in 2022]

Trubisky is the obvious choice. He won't be here

 So I would be more than happy with Fitz.
