I'd rate Mike Stratton ahead of Cornelius Bennett, and Robert James ahead of Butch Byrd. Before James tore his knee up, he was All Pro three consecutive years.

I watched it live too, you're welcome.

Watch the 1965 AFL Championship game; the Chargers didn't score in that game, but he was the weak link. Art Laster or Carlester Crumpler

I'm thinking TP, Beane, McD, Dion, wives, and other teammates all flew out on Terry's jet.

One picture showing McD sitting with his wife who is holding a parasol. Dion seated in the row in front of them, and Beane sitting in the row in front of Dion. I think Gabe Davis is standing in one photo wearing a tux. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/nfl/article-14768579/josh-allen-hailee-steinfeld-wedding.html

Coy Wire carved out a nice career as a CNN sports reporter.

Listening to Vince Carter (limited owner) speak with the press left me very impressed. I think he will be a real positive for the team.

I don't see one person in the stands wearing any merch; lot of coats and ties though.

So what? In July, at training camp, the pundits will be writing "so and so" eats raw meat, and that's fine, but if this team can't at least clear the AFC Championship next January, then you'll be hearing the same chorus of "get rid of McDermott", "time to move on from Beane", or "another wasted year of Josh Allen's prime".

Robert James...a magician with the bump and run. All-pro 1972, 1973, 1974; suffered knee ligament damage in 1975. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_James_(defensive_back)

This makes good business sense; Hallmark is located in Kansas City. Hallmark has a media production company which is very big into Christmas. They screen Christmas movies exclusively on all their channels beginning around Halloween, and running through to New Years. Chiefs were featured one of their Christmas movies last year; the Bills are supposed to be this year. It's a market the Chiefs could capture.

What's the right price got to do with it? It's a roster spot; the guy was terrible last season. Bring in someone else and improve the roster.

Hey, I'd take a half dozen 7-10 seasons, if they came with just one goddamned championship.

You give any one of those "average" teams Josh Allen as their starting QB, then I think that's a completely different stat line. And that's the difference: Bills have a once in a generation starting QB, but they are hamstrung by a HC and GM with obvious shortcomings who happened to luck into Allen.

Not going to win with a Beane picked, McDermott coached defense. Last time everyone blamed Leslie Frazier. The problem was/is much deeper. Elite defensive coaches don't lose playoff games in the last 13 seconds. McDermott is mediocre.

This is one hundred percent on Beane. He is ridiculously overrated as a GM.

I think it's time to move on from Beane. His drafting is spotty; lousy high round busts. He overpays on contracts. If not for lucking out with Josh Allen, these Bills teams going back five seasons would be hard pressed to win eight games a season.

Biggest difference between the 1972 Bills era and today: fans didn't wear merch anywhere near like they do now. In a way, I think it was more pure.

Specter is a bum!

Bills defense is dogshite. Secondary sucks, center of the D-line is a no-show, and the scheming blows.Please get rid of Babich; he is in over his head.

They always say it's how you are playing in December. This defense has been exposed. It's dog doo doo. Beane tried to slide by with plan B signing and bad contracts Miller and Oliver. The secondary blows!
