Does anybody care about Alabama games?
Bill from NYC replied to /dev/null's topic in College Football
Your whining, and pouting jealousy is reminiscent of a spoiled 5 year old. The SEC is probably still the best conference. These teams look bad because they are playing Alabama. Average SEC teams such as Auburn would run Purdue off the field. Do you think that your beloved Penn State is in a class with Alabama? That is laughable but maybe they would be if they brought back that winning combination of Paterno and his boy Sandusky. Maybe if Paterno was alive Sandusky would still be a coach emeritus and continue to have an office at the stadium. That being the case, ya gotta love the progress PSU is making, no? -
Make no mistake, I like that. Tua and Jalen Hurts are saying the same thing in Alabama, and I prefer this way over getting in trouble. That said, one needs to be able to compete at the NFL level. They traded away a kid who has proven capable of being at least a decent QB and kept Peterman. Unbelievable.
-
Yes, and maybe there was a clue to be had about Peterman after the worst performance in the history of NFL Football. Look, Peterman seems like a good kid and maybe McCarron is more self centered than Nate. I don't freaking know but McCarron was and is a better qb in every phase of his career. How anyone can defend cutting McCarron to accommodate his desires (at the expense of the team) is beyond my comprehension.
-
I am not a huge fan of McCarron but he is 100x better than Peterman will ever be. You say he wasn't interested in being a mentor. OK, was Peterman a mentor? Please. Nate Clements wanted out. Levy made a "promise" to let him go and he did just that. I am tired of accommodating players. This is part of what is wrong with the franchise.
-
Seriously? Accomodated? The Buffalo Bills are a football team, not a Hampton Inn. These players sign a contract to work here. This was a continuation of the Marv Levy stupidity. Players are not hotel guests. They are paid to do a job. Releasing McCarron or for that matter thinking that Peterman was even a fraction of him in terms of talent were idiotic moves that will cause harm to the franchise. I for one am not concerned when players "want out," nor should our leadership be.

Why Derek Anderson should start the rest of the season...
Bill from NYC replied to Simon's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Of course you are 100% correct but more important.....I hope all is well!!! -
Someone needs to be fired over Mahomes right now.
Bill from NYC replied to Klaista2k's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Probably very few, but it still was not smart of Mr. Process to pass on him and Watson to trade down and take a corner. That, imro, is a blueprint for losing football games for many years. -
Hernandez Beaten, Abused as Child

Bravo!!!!!!!!! -
This too makes sense. I saw some of the UCF game on Saturday. Do you remember when you and I were talking about Texas A&M? I think that A&M is WAY better than UCF but once again, that doesn't make me right.
-
I see your point. I simply don't think that UCF is in a class with the top teams. Of course, this doesn't make me right.
-
There is no possible way that UCF should get into the playoffs. If they were in the SEC they would finish somewhere around .500, perhaps below that. At least half in the SEC Teams are clearly superior to UCF. And before you bring up bowl games, they no longer matter and are little more than exhibition games. I am NOT in any way saying that Alabama will make the playoffs. Anything can happen but if in fact they get there and they were to play UCF, I would be the happiest guy in town. Alabama's 3rd team would destroy them.

Tre White is the Best Player On the Bills Now
Bill from NYC replied to Domdab99's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Any time a corner is far and away the best player on an NFL Team, said team is in a sorry state. And yes, Tre White is the best player on the Bills. -
Where would this team be if AJM was the Day 1 starter?
Bill from NYC replied to Rebel101's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Yep, the genius who passed on Mahomes and Watson so he could draft a cornerback decided that Peterman was better than McCarron. I wouldn't consider that to be such a great indicator against McCarron but that's just me. -
In a way, Damien has reminded me of Thurman Thomas for a long time. Now before anyone screams I am talking about style, not hall of fame ability. Damien isn't "great" at anything but he has some speed, is strong, is a great blocker, can catch, has very nice hands, is VERY smart, and for a kid with glasses, has a knack for seeing a hole. Again, he doesn't have super speed and he isn't close to being as strong as Derrick Henry, but he has a fairly quick first step. He would be a fantastic draft choice, but (imo) not in the first round. RBs lack importance these days.
-
Sorry, but I could not disagree more. I don't care one iota what McCoy wants. This was the Marv Levy GM method of appeasement and ass kissing. Exactly the above, (along with other stupid beyond description moves) left this team in shambles. If you are against trading him, great! But I wouldn't let him call the shots. Not ever. Of course, jmo.
-
Ya got me there. That said, I think that by the time the season is over, A&M will be respected as a quality team. Having Jimbo will help quite a bit. If there is a team to be cited for an easy schedule it is Clemson imo. I really doubt this. They might not even get in with 1 loss.
-
Your standards are pretty high, no? Both Texas and Notre Dame played for the title in the last 6 or so years.
-
They came within 2 points of beating Clemson. Does that tickle your sentiments?
-
Again, Texas A&M is a good team. The only time they looked bad was while losing to the Crimson Tide.
