  1. Wow as I said that makes him around 18 feet tall. That would give him a good advantage, great for blocking field goals too. Don't know if you were joking or not, but it's been explained below your post what it actually is!
  2. What the heck units is this in Height of 6051 8.03 Metric that would make him about 18 feet tall?? Weight 252 OK that could pounds, but then what is 5.76??
  3. Not sure I'd call it analylics, to me it was a computer game without a computer before computers were anywhere popular. 3 dice replaced the computer and a stack of cards.
  4. Wow, haven't heard that in quite awhile, use to like that game as a kid. Was ahead of it's time in many ways. I had the football version, my friend had the baseball game. I may have had the hockey one too??
  5. Just curious, I've attended a handful of Bills games over the years, haven't been to one in 13 years since moved south. (Well, did go to one in Charlotte) They are talking about building one across Abbott Rd, is anything on that land now? Does anything much need to be closed and land purchased to build there, like isn't the Big Tree Inn over there? Not very familiar with exact location, when I did go to games, usually came in from the east side, down and back up the big ravine from what I recall.
  6. Whenever she's call out the score, he'd yell back "I love you to!"
  7. Yes but you also assumed they allowed someone to enter who was Covid+ and other things never stated. And speaking of assuming things, how do you know he wasn't wearing a mask? And BTW, you don't have to wear masks at the stadium now as instead everyone entering has been vaccinated. So why does this have to be different? Does Terry wear a mask at games while sitting in his suite??
  8. If you look at the list it was when Reich was with the Jets in 96
  9. How dense can one person be?
  10. I figured gas the plane up to go sign Ertz
  11. IMO the issue the Bills had was paying too much attention to Henry. He had if I remember right about 143 yards on 20 attempts. Take away the 76 yarder and the one 19 yarder and he's down to around 50 yards on 18 attempts, about 2.5 YPC. To me the long 76 yard run is one of these where you break through the first line of defense, often not much after that to stop him (add in the potential hold not called) Not many also have his speed that once through aren't caught from behind. What seemed to cost them was worrying and committing so much to stop him, they allowed Tannerhill to look like Josh Allen completing passes. Wonder in a re-match, would they play differently? Maybe play Klein and give him sole job of shadowing Henry, thus allowing Milano and Edmunds to drop back into coverage. Instead thos two were more caught in no mans land, half worrying about Henry, first trying to stop the pass and doing neither. But to OP point, I would much rather play the game in Buffalo than Tenn, bad weather or not. Bad weather would more likely stop Tannerhill from passing than it would Allen, so then could easier stop Henry. Did see interesting stat that Henry's YPR average is highest in 4th quarter as defenses are worn out
  12. Apparently he never looked in the mirror all the years in Buffalo. Then again not likely a mirror wide enough to be able to see both him and brother Rob in it. I will say, i is funny how all the gushing over Robert Saleh last year has gone up in smoke. Like in 2017 when Bills hired McD, was graded as one of the worst hires that year. Many stories all liked Anthony Lynn and Vance Joseph better and even better yet in 2019 gave Freddie Kitchens and Adam Gase good grades for the hires.
  13. What picks? They wouldn't have got the picks they did from KC. They also traded a tackle to the Bengals (Can't recall his name) which allowed them to move up in 1st round of draft. Likely if they had drafted a QB, they wouldn't have wanted to trade a lineman away so no better pick there either. Doubt they'd have done little of any of the other maneuvering they did to collect picks if they already had a QB. If anything may have traded them for vet players, but likely be in more cap trouble today if they had.
  14. Wow, hard to believe 10 teams already have had their bye this season. Not playing fantasy this year, don't notice it.
  15. I don't even know who the Jets backup QB is, but from what I've seen, think I'd rather face Wilson so hope he's OK. Best case he's back in 2 to 3 weeks, plays against the Bills, but is less than 100% mobile which would make a bad situation for the Jets even worse.
  16. Yeah O line takes time for players to jell together. So not so sure a trade is going to help a whole lot there unless it's a really top level player.
  17. Think it will be a little of all of the above, more Davis going 4 wide, and Kumerow and Sweeney as the TE. If one works heads and shoulders better than the other options, may see more of that, but again will depend on opponent too.
  18. As they say Time heals all wounds. Give enough time and him asking for forgiveness, can see him getting some type of role back in football. Announcing MNF, or HC in the league, no, but some position by some team, maybe scouting area or something. Could see it happening years down the road. Seems others have done worse and got back again.
  19. I don't care about citations, but after reading this thread about 10 other posters agree with 1ManRaid and have tried to explain it and correct you, but to no avail. Face it, you're no Einstein!!
  20. I'd be surprised if Jon has much of the real dirt other owners are worried about. He's just a small part of this, admittedly as a coach much more visible part of this sop he went down fast. Unless of course Mark Davis spilled the beans to him about a ton of stuff he shouldn't have told him as I'm sure daddy Al had plenty of secrets to share. Also what would Jon gain by spilling the beans as if he did, his future in football would be completely dead. And yes right now he doesn't have a future, but have seen many other situations where forgiveness comes and he's back in good graces. He goes off and takes some sensitivity training, hold hands and sings Kum-By-Ka and is back in a half dozen years in some capacity without much visibility. Whereas Snyder's only desire is to own a team. If he were forced to sell, he knows he's not going to get another chance to buy a team back, so for him nothing to lose by burning everything down.
  21. When you have 4 WR and TE who can likely gain more yards than the RB, more likely to throw to them. Plus if running 3 WR and one TE on most plays and all going out into passing lanes, someone needs to stay in and block, particularly since O line isn't great. Yeah I agree, was hoping this year when they signed him for his speed, they'd make him active every week and have three RB available. But we're not seeing him in practice either and maybe the player they see doesn't provide very much and if either RB were to get hurt and Breida was active, we'd be worse off.
  22. I'd guess the reason for not kicking out of bounds is statistically more teams can score by throwing a long TD pass than returning the KO for a TD. Besides this game I don't think I've ever seen a TD made on KO return involving laterals. Also don't recall but wasn't it a squib kick? That forced Tenn to field the ball and started the clock. So kicking off and making them field it took most time off clock too. I had no problem with Johnson playing that game. The first year Flutie was here, he played great and helped them win many games. The second season they were still winning, but was more because of defense, seemed teams had figured him out by then, were making him pass to outside and he didn't have the arm for that and were better containing the running. Having said all that, do seem to recall he was a big Flutie fan so wouldn't be surprised if his comment was directed at Johnson.
  23. In fairness I doubt anyone in the Bills front office, coaching staff, or all the arm chair GM's here expected Groot to be playing as well as he has/is or as much. So from that standpoint, made more sense to bring back Addison and Butler. I'd love to get inside Beanes head and find out, had he known he was going to draft a def lineman in the first two rounds, would he have re-done Addison's contract. And to a lesser degree also Butler? Which then makes me wonder about another question, would the NFL be better off copying the NBA concept of draft, then FA as opposed to how the NFL does FA, then draft.
  24. the issue with Feliciano may be he decided to lose 15 pounds and sounds like was done without ever asking the Bills what they thought of the idea. I actually thought he played better last year at center when Morse was out. Have often read here how after this year easy to walk away from Morse contract. So maybe they do that, then rather also cutting Feliciano, move him into center, then sign a top tier guard and draft in maybe 2nd or 3rd a center/guard to replace Feliciano in 2023 as the starter. Read the BN O line grades and this is done by people who likely watched every play back 2 to 3 times in slow motion and are impartial and are not emotional fanatics like most here are that see things in a very slanted way, the grade the line was given was 4.5 and said Brown really only messed up one or two plays. Read a 2nd article in the Athletic that stated the same line play had some big bad plays like the 4th down run by Allen, but other than that one play, Dawkins was good all game. Same with Brown 1 or 2 bad plays only.. Really didn't talk much about Feliciano much at all. Admittedly watching the game I felt the line was also a big issue, but trust their judgement more than about 98% of the posters here.
