  1. I'm a poor man's son from across the railroad tracks
    Only should I own this hair on my back
    But I'm the envy of every single guy
    Since I'm the apple of my girl's eye
    When we go out stepping on the town for a while
    My money's low and my suit's out of style
    But it's all right if my clothes aren't new
    Out of sight, because my heart is true

    Baby, everything is alright
    Uptight, and clean out of sight

    Oh Bill. Trap implies one team is taking it lightly and your own post states the obvious…the Bills must win this game. No divisional game is a trap. Could the Bills lose? Sure, but it will not be the result of them overlooking the opponent. 
     

    No, that is your definition of a trap. Mine is when the bookmakers try to influence bettors to go in a certain direction. You really should stop coming off as all knowing, whereas you have made a fool of yourself on this board more often than not.

  3. Down in the street there is violence
    And a lots of work to be done
    No place to hang out our washing
    And I can't blame all on the sun, oh no

     

    We gonna rock down to Electric Avenue
    And then we'll take it higher

  4. This is one of the biggest trap games I have ever seen for the following reasons:

     

    1) Tua is done. Finished. He should not even be playing.

    2) The Bills need this game. They are not even in first place in the AFC East.

    3) Miami's coach will be fired sooner than later. They can't wait to dump him.

    4) The Dolphin's season is over. They have nothing to gain by winning, and might even lose out on a QB by doing so.

     

    So yes, it is a trap imo. It looks too easy and if every game that looks this easy was a winner, none of us would ever have  to work. Now, do I think they the Bills will cover the 9 1/2? I do. I think that the line should be somewhere around 17. Would I be shocked if they win by 3? Not really. I will probably make a small bet on the Bills but that is it.

     

    Sorry for the rant. I suppose this post was just me thinking out loud. :)

    Buffalo still figuring out the defense without Hoecht. Very little pressure on Tua for the most part due to his quick release. 

     

    Late INT by Mad Max seals it. 

    Tua is done. I have watched Tua since his first appearance at Alabama. Not only has he suffered numerous concussions, his arm isn't what it used to be. I watched him play last week and they were only trying short routes. Too many serious injuries.

     

    Tua is a great guy by all reports. A total gentleman. Now, he is saying odd things at press conferences. He needs to retire. I wish that he would step away before this game to avoid further damage. He made enough money. It is painful to watch him risking his future. Again, he is done. Enough is enough.

    There is genuinely a bit of a point about whether you really want to use a first on a WR in 2026 when the 2027 class looks at this stage potentially epic. I know you were talking half in jest but it isn't a great CB crop (and there is zero chance Beane spends a high pick on a corner this year anyway) but it IS a strong defensive line group. And take it from the man himself - he will "never apologise" for prioritising the defensive line. If I had to put money on the position of the Bills 2026 first round pick right now I'd put it on a defensive lineman. Probably EDGE over DT, but one or the other. 

    I don't know GB. There might be a slow receiver or two that McDermott might want to trade down for.

    The best thing that came out of this trade deadline was all the stuff coming out about Beane being actively calling on legit WR1 type options. Gives me hope that this offseason and draft it will be a top priority and hopefully we see them either land one in FA/Trade (no idea who is going to be available) or aggressive in getting one in the draft, including moving up to do so.

    I wouldn't get my hopes up so high. There are lots of good defensive tackles and cornerbacks in the upcomming draft.

    That's a win for the Jets, imo.

    Not only will their own pick get them the QB that they want, but those are two more huge puzzle pieces they can use to build around him. 

    Fortunately it's the Jets, so there's real hope they'll completely foul the whole thing up.

    I could not possinbly agree more. Sauce is good, but he grabs and holds and is not at all worth two first round picks. Not even remotely close.

     

    They are in obvious need of a quarterback, and there seems to be lots of them comong out. Alabama won five straight SEC games and each team they defeated had a very good QB imo. The kid fron Texas A&M is said to be special. I saw the kid from Ole Miss and he looks really good. Even Arch Manning can play, and Ty Simpson is the real deal imo. The kid in Oklahoma looks like a future star. This is just the SEC!!! I don't know when all of of these kids are draft eligible, but it would seem as if the Jets will have two first and two seconds in 2026, and 3 firsts in 2027. As you said, they will get a very good qb, unless they screw up big time (which is never out of the question for the jests).

     

    In any event, these trades were probably the most intelligent moves that the jests have made in the last 50 or more years.

    Oh Juanita, oh Juanita, oh Juanita, I call your name

  11. Oh, what a feeling I get when I'm with you
    You take my heart into everything you do
    And it makes me sad for the lonely people
    I walked that road for so long
    Now I know that I'm one of the lucky people
    Your love is making me strong


    I've had enough bad love
    I need something I can be proud of
    I've had enough bad love
    No more bad love

  12. There was nobody as funny as Hogboy. Nobody. I am still lucky enough to read his trolls on other sites (until he gets banned). In his own weird way, the man is a genius. He can develop a complete character/personality in a split second.

     

    He sends me trolls in the morning and I send them around to friends. I feel like he could make money at this because he is just so great at upsetting people but he disagrees. His goal is never to hurt others. He just wants to get people angry and upset.

     

    Btw, one of his trolls was that the Damar Hamlin injury was fake, because they didn't perform an "alltopsy."  When people react and say this is only for dead people (and criticize his spelling), he claims that a "partial alltopsy" should have been performed. 

     

    The guy is GREAT!!!!!!!!😁

    Agree.  Talent and scheme win SBs.  Beane gets a lot of flack for players not performing to their draft status in the 1st round, but I would guess every other GM in the National Football League has drafted similar players but earlier in the 1st round.  Plus, drafting at the end means you get leftovers.  Do we really think we can do better than Beane?

    To answer your question, I think that Beane would do better without McDermott.
