  1. These are the two explanations I've always heard for it too
  2. I have ST now that it's gone from DTV, but prior agree, waters were always smooth. I will add one time was watching a pirated feed of college game, then remembered I actually had that channel and switched to legal feed, the reception on pirate feed was much better picture.
  3. Didn't some QB a couple weeks ago, think it might have been Drake Maye, say something like he knows what to avoid doing if he hits his head, so he doesn't get buzzed out of game. The whole thing is just a game they are playing, coaches, players both in on it.
  4. I don't know, can a leopard change it's spots?
  5. Was this announced this morning on the Get Up show??? ....... By Rex himself? LOL I find this to be a contradiction, Rex discipline?? I suppose Rex would enjoy seeing all the feet on South Beach The Dolphins would likely target a disciplinarian type a la Dan Quinn to be their next head coach. Former Buffalo Bills and New York Jets head coach Rex Ryan
  6. tae Where's the stats?? LOL Just Google the coaching careers of the Jet's, Giants, Miami, Throw Buffalo in there for past 25 years, Cleveland, Jax, Indy just to name a few. Bengals should be on the list but Mike Brown was too cheap to ever fire Lewis. These teams would hir a coach, 3 or 4 years later team is no better so fire the next one. These were teams that didn't have good records to start with so the ability to improve is pretty large. In the case of the Bills now, the window to improve is very small based on how they've already done.
  7. So QB is all that's holding the Rams and McVay back?? I don't think so. I think McVay is a good coach, but no better than McD and the record shows it. Yes he won one SB, but part of that is being in the right place at the right time. If you take that one year away, his record is even worse. Well actually it probably isn't worse, because likely he'd been fired by now. That's my whole argument with this dump McD crowd, the likelihood of getting betting is very low as there's not many teams that have had a better record than the Bills so much better chance of getting worse, not better.
  8. Really have to understand the love affair with Sean McVay who has a regular season winning percentage of .606 compared to McD at .667 and McVay is 8-5 in playoffs, compared to 7-7 for McD. Yes he's won one SB, but two years he didn't even make the playoffs. And Shanahan win percent is even worse at .540, 8-4 playoff record which on one hand sounds better, but also mean more years he didn't even make the playoffs. McVay got to hand pick the QB he wanted so hard to argue the Allen is so much better argument. Besides if McVay is that much better, you'd think he could coach a lesser player to play as well as Allen? Interesting all three started the same year so basically all coached same number of overall games. McD has one less game played due to the Bengals no game. When Belichick was at NE I gave him about 60 to 70% of the credit and 30 to 40% to Brady. But once Brady left, realized I was wrong there. Belichick's teams also went downhill (admittedly it took a number of years) once Scott Pioli left and BB was doing the drafting so that's another big red flag with him, very poor drafting. I also wonder too if part of BB problem in later years was due to all the social media, advanced technology, etc. made it tougher for him to cheat without getting caught and that also may have led to his downward trend.
  9. How do you know it's so hard? And how's the complexity here compare to other teams, how do you know that? There was an article in the paper maybe the Buffalo News where Landon Jackson was quoted as saying something along the lines of one of the other players told him. You're likely not going to always remember the play or your assignment or even hear the call right, just go with your gut and play fast. A rookie going with his gut can be a problem.
  10. The defense in the first half played very well. I think NE made one half time adjustment. Put Diggs on whichever side White was on!
  11. Fair, But my point in responding to this was to say this whole thread is crazy. The Bills didn't come close to losing yesterday because of Coleman. They lost because a number of things and from everything I've read, if anything more were central to Allen at least on the offensive side.
  12. One of the talking points in the Cook contract was he didn't play enough snaps, less than 50% Seems it's now gone too far the other way at the expense of Davis and Johnson and that may be the problem??
  13. I'd go with CB2 - LB - WR - DL At least too for CB, they have Hairston coming back hopefully soon. I think once he's active I'd start him, likely take some lumps early, but hopefully by January he's figured things out. So may even put LB #1, Is Edmunds available??
  14. So after last nights game, I'd move Milano to IR for one spot and not sure they'll do it, but cut White. That's 2 spots.
  15. He played that way here too for about the first year and a half, maybe 2 years then became a problem.
  16. And Allen gave them 7 so guess that makes him even worse. And Keon also gave them 7 with a TD to, but you left that part out. so gues that makes him +3 for the game. Yes was bad fumble, but as many pointed out the entire game by everyone except Kincaid and their kicker were bad.
  17. they have 9 D line active this week instead of 8 so some other position takes a hit, and it was Hancock.
  18. I think he'll get at least one more year as he's won too much to be fired for one bad year. All the Raven have to look at is Steelers still have Tomlin and he hasn't been fired yet.
  19. McDaniel punting with just over a minute to go seems like a reason to be fired. Yes Miami had all 3 TO's left, but one first down by Carolina and game is over. Plus even if they stopped Miami 3 straight, they'd used the time outs and after Carolina punts, they'd likely be starting from their own 25 yard line with maybe 40 seconds to go.
  20. Definitely agree on the lazy part. Think he had a very good defensive scheme, but like many things in football teams adjust, so in turn Rx adjusted too. But his adjustments got too complex to the point where most players couldn't run it well anymore. Recall how he had to have Jim Leonard back at safety to get everyone on right page.
  21. Agree easily on Ciarlo, and Ingram, Franklin is a bit tougher due to his ST contribution. I think Codington may go first before Franklin. Or if you're going to keep Codington for his return role, then do you need Samuel and could you trade him?
  22. There was an article today in both the Buffalo News and Athletic about the same topic, what are the Bills going to do roster wise when they get the players back both from IR and suspension. They talked about a couple of potential trade candidates or who they may release, but also touched on this discussion could all become irrelevant if anyone gets injured and someone else needs to go to IR. This could be a preemptive move in that regard. In a perfect word Strong would not have got hurt until one of these other's are ready to return, but it's not a perfect word. So this opens up Hairston's spot
  23. One name from a long time ago from a small school was Phil Simms Was watching one of the post game shows today and the commentator was talking about Penn State struggles practically with passing and his exact words were "Penn St has paid a lot for these WR's!" The absurdity of a statement like that is wild, but it's the era we now are in. Waited as long as the could for the sake of the coaches jobs or for the good of the player?
  24. There was an entire article a couple weeks back also in the Athletic about how QB's are mostly all being ruined today by getting them out there way to fast. But the coaches job is on the line so it's done, repeatedly. Recall years back my thought was that seemed like some of the better QB's in NFLK came from small schools as they didn't have 10 All Americans surrounding them. Hmmmmm. Do All Americans still exist or am I dating myself??
  25. So based on 11 carries for the year and 8 of them came in the Jets game, likely in the 4th quarter playing with all other backups, you can figure all this out that he's no good??
