  1. Yes, we continue to play Detroit in the preseason. Although it may not be every year. Ever been to Death Valley?
  2. If true, is this really a surprise?
  3. The Buccaneers could face two of the top teams on their home schedule that would be on the highly rated kickoff game?! Wow, Peter King, you astound me with your predictions!
  4. I understand your comparison, yet these are two completely different things. Tebow was not attempting to be controversial, at least I don't think he was. He was definitely bringing attention to himself, and there were a good number of people who were furious with him. The anti-religion groups were saying that Tebow was trying to indoctrinate everyone with his religious beliefs. Yet I never saw him do such a thing. Let's also remember that Ray Lewis in his final season was outspoken about being born again and praising Jesus after every victory, but no one said a word about his actions. I just never understood the hate for what Tebow was doing. Look at how many times players come out of the tunnel and run to the end zone, take a knee and pray. People don't say anything about that, but Tebow was wrong for doing it. I just don't get it.
  5. College football is more popular than professional football in Jacksonville. Add to the fact that there are lots of Florida Gators fans in Jacksonville. The fans will be interested.
  6. You obviously don't remember all the scorn and ridicule he got for doing that when he was with Denver. There were a lot of fans and media outlets that hated him for doing that.
  7. What you say is true, but the absence of Brees kills this idea. It will be Dallas. The television networks love them, and I just do not see the NFL starting the season off with an AFC Vs. NFC game. These games have little to no bearing on the tie breakers.
  8. My prediction. Week 1 @TENN Week 2 MIA Week 3 @NYJ Week 4 WASH Week 5 IND Week 6 @TB Week 7 CAR Week 8 @NE Week 9 BYE Week 10 PITT Week 11 @JAX Week 12 @KC Week 13 ATL Week 14 HOU Week 15 @NO Week 16 @MIA Week 17 NE Week 18 NYJ
  9. I know the reason why they chose Jets Vs. Jaguars, but still it's Jets vs. Jaguars. Cowboys vs. Giants makes no sense at all as a Top 10 game. Yet they still put this game on as a Sunday Night match-up despite it being an average to below average game all the time.
  10. It was a weird game. Josh Allen had a tough day. Interestingly enough, the Bills defense made several key stops in the 4th quarter to keep giving the Bills a chance. The Cardinals had chances to put the game out of reach in the 4th quarter, but they got stopped on a couple crucial 3rd downs. I remember Micah Hyde making a big stop. Then that last offensive drive in the waning minutes. Beasley with that ridiculous catch that was 5 feet over his head, then of course that gaudy touchdown pass to Diggs. Allen stepped up on that drive and delivered. Tough way to lose, but the Bills never lost another regular season game after that.
  11. We did? That's not how I remember it.
  12. When he and his family get together for a gathering, are they Wildgeese?
  13. Wow! Wasn't Notre Dame also trying to recruit Diggs as well?
  14. So Tommy Doyle is the new whipping boy for TBD?
  15. Makes me want to go to Bob's Country Bunker
  16. I opened this thread because I was trying to figure out what Bill Bellichick has to do with the Eagles.
  17. Let's not forget the eternal hype of Manning Vs. Manning
  18. I only care because I want to know when I can plan my road trip to go to a game. The whole "schedule reveal" being a 3 hour television special is silly. Speaking of which, what is the over/under on the schedule reveal show, on the amount of time that they will be talking about the Patriots* Vs. Buccaneers game?
  19. We'll know for sure on May 12
  20. Bills related: I wanted Josh Rosen, but Josh Allen was my second choice. So I was satisfied with the pick. I was ecstatic when we traded up for Sammy Watkins. Didn't care what the price was, because we got the best WR in the draft. I thought that Marcel Dareus(why do people here continue to spell his last name wrong?) would be a mainstay on our defensive line for a long time and he would be one of the best D-linemen we've had in Bills history. NFL related: Didn't think much of Patrick Mahomes. Never thought he would be anything special. That being said, I don't regret trading down with the Chiefs in the 2017 draft. I thought that the NFL would show integrity by placing asterisk marks next to every Patriots* Super Bowl championship along with every players statistic who ever played while Bill Belichick was head coach, and that all potential Hall of Fame credentials would be nullified.
