Every single one? Even the ones they win? Hyperbole much? Jeebus....

Two definite underperformers, for sure. Would love to know whether it’s a bad scheme fit, poor coaching, injuries, or lack of desire. Probably a bit of each.

This x 1000. If you seriously thought coming into this season that we were a Super Bowl contender, then yeah, I guess you should be disappointed/worried/disgusted. I, and many others view this as a “re-set year” where we have to deal with salary cap issues, get younger, and take some lumps, while remaining as competitive as possible. My expectations have been firmly in check since the first snap of the first game.

I don’t think you understand what “silver lining” means. Look it up.

Haha, yeah, such a routine catch.

Yeah, wouldn’t need that on the roster.

Time will tell, I guess. We all witnessed Tom Brady carve up the NFL with (except for Randy Moss) a stable of less than unbelievable WRs. And if you tell me you knew Julian Edelman and Wes Welker were going to be awesome receivers at the start of their careers, I’ll call you a liar. They were a product of a very efficient offensive system.

Blah blah blah. You act like there’s cheap all pros growing on trees. There’s an entire roster to be replenished. Sh!t happens.

Like someone great we were able to get back in May couldn’t have also gotten turf toe or some other injury. Your 20/20 hindsight is impressive.

Elbo Room. Went two years ago. Hotter than &%$! Wall to wall Bills fans, including one unfortunate woman who was passed out cold on the sidewalk at 3:00 in the afternoon. Bills came by in busses and the crowd went nuts.

Roger Staubach, Bo Jackson, Walter Payton, Barry Sanders

Honestly, I think it’s as simple as McD and Beane valuing intangibles like character, toughness (physical and mental), and intelligence over raw physical abilities like speed. Is that right? I don’t know. But I suspect it’s their general MO.

We spent most of our time in the Downtown area of St Pete, so probably not.

Hmmm… not sure where that is exactly…

Just busting yer balls. Their serious problems are painfully evident and very well chronicled.

Haha… where the hell have you been???

Wore my Bills hat around St Pete FL last week and got a handful of Go Bills.

The OJ has hit its expiration date.

I'll play devil's advocate on the bolded. Why is that necessarily a great thing? Are you saying Josh's decision-making is infallible? We know that's not exactly true. Who are the new leaders that Josh will look to for feedback on team-wide culture stuff? Don't discount the importance of a strong leadership team.

Yikes. Hope Beane knows what he's doing.

Actually, you're saying he had three rough plays last year.

You initially said "fringe good player". Now a "very good player"... 😕

So, are you arguing that they shouldn't have extended him, or that the extension is for too much? Or that the All Pro voters got it wrong? Or some combination?

Fringe? He's an All Pro.
