Haven’t you heard? It’s hard to win in the NFL.

The 80 and 81 offenses were so much fun to watch. Lewis and Butler outside; Lou Piccone running inside routes, Brammer at TE and Cribbs in the backfield. Great defense too. This book recaptures the 1980 season in detail: https://www.amazon.com/Talking-Proud-Rediscovering-Magical-Buffalo/dp/0991262204/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?crid=2US77YDXGTFZG&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.hBB2rK4rX1w2nmr8Av5GRWxLVgtWtsrA3BkdzLfUlliZU1E6dIZ66KCzKHrWhh36TaOzCNKJiz8ZL4XV1eJjC640wDyL7OZni8ZzxgEeUO4.XMFFH3zZTIU5qn4kCmbzdbbizzfvIpoc75jKeh7J_MU&dib_tag=se&keywords=1980+buffalo+bills+talking+proud&qid=1736272980&sprefix=1980+buffalo+bills+talking+proud%2Caps%2C97&sr=8-1

All road losses too

“We’re going to get that third round pick value out of you even if it kills you!”

Strength of schedule is one thing, but I thought the Broncos had a dismal record against winning or playoff teams?

Like my grandpappy used to say “If you need numbers to tell you who’s good and who’s bad, you ain’t paying attention. I don’t need to know a gal’s measurements to know whether I’d marry her”

And if they weren’t outfitted in goalie equipment and wore what they wear now, they would all look tiny. Wasn’t Bruce Smith only 265 at one point? He was much bigger as a rookie and then got himself into incredible shape. It was that friggin neck roll!

What did he think of #1 pick Jim Ritcher? I remember it being really hard to get excited about some unknown (to me) guard. Cribbs was an exciting addition because other than Terry Miller, the Bills didn’t have an exciting back after OJ left.

Maybe for the same reason total yards are used instead of yards per carry for running backs. The former, and similar total stats, were used for years as benchmarks. It is only in the last 10-20 years that new statistical measures have been created and the league hasn’t adopted their use as much as the fans have. The league still emphasizes the “old” stats as those are the basis for records. But reading various sources, I’m seeing more and more emphasis put on EPA stats and the like. The points per drive is a useful measure but it’s hard to separate teams when the numbers and differences are so small.

Yeah, I remember thinking “if this guy was so good returning kicks in college, why does he make such basic mistakes in judgement?”

But it didn’t say “check this player out”. It just said his name. That’s why there’s a rule about not having name only titles. Don’t be so sensitive. Here is some music

DBs have a very difficult task. This really shows how important communication is within the defensive backfield.

Mom’s dead, otherwise I would after your eloquent diss.

Whew! I thought he died or something.

Hyde or Hardy? I would say McD trusts Hyde, but he’s not a punt returner per se. Hardy I would not say McD trusts based on the trade for Codrington.

Give it to Kenny. He’ll figure out an appropriate use for it. Maybe fill it with relish to top off the ketchup and mustard shower.

Anybody can say this. What about the lakes, super genius??

Sounds like we need Joe to do a crappy job in the playoffs if we hope to keep him. Maybe a shutout?

The QB went down like he was Von’s baby mama.

Do the Broncos have Natrone Means? Otherwise, no.

Mayo is available as a bridge coach

I know they are our rivals, but you really hate to see an organization in such disarray

Christmas twice in a month’s time!

I know this is “out of the box” thinking, but what about maybe Vrable as a replacement?

May the good lord bless them with Boogie Basham and Cody Ford.
