Tampa is nuts if they give Baker a big $ long term contract.

Another good reason that watching players on the field instead of looking at stats is the proper way to evaluate QBs. There are certain players who look a lot better on paper than on the field. My #1 paper tiger is Kirk Cousins. Looks great on paper & many fall for his stats but comes up small on the field in clutch moments. I said this many times, but I'll repeat it here: There's a reason players and coaches study videos for hours instead of just having a short meeting, have the coaches hand out stat sheets & announce "Go get 'em boys"

Remember the 1990s when every one of our Super Bowls we lost to a team from the best division in football? Playing good teams strengthens a team, not weakens a team. When the Bills destroyed the Raiders in January 1991 we all though that we'd cruise vs the Giants, but we forgot the gauntlet the NFL East and the NFC was. I prefer a team that has been winning against the best vs cruising against bums. The AFC has all the class teams. Think of it as a QB driven league. I'll take Allen, Mahomes, or Jackson over Purdy, Goff, or Mayfield evey day and hour of the week.

The AFC will dominate in the Super Bowl. This is our big chance, the NFC has nothing.

Mahomes probably cheered when he heard no Toney to run bad routes and drop his passes.

KC management gets a box or 2. She's been with Mahomes' wife at the games. The Bills aren't the ones giving her a box. If she had to, she could buy into a box making an offer nobody could refuse. Imagine getting offered a payment of your entire season for 1 day use of your luxury box. You can even negotiate a few seats behind her.

It was a joke (see Billdoe thread). Lighten up Francis.

Get those Billdoes ready to throw against the glass in the box she's in.

I don't root for other teams to win or lose based on the Bills possibly losing a game the next day. The only time I would do that would be if the Bills had 2 wins going into the season finale & I was rooting for the other team with 2 wins to win the day before. The good news is I doubt I'll ever see a 2 win Bills team again.

When I went to the Bills Raiders cold playoff game back in the early 90s, I brought a garbage bag full newspapers & put my feet in them the whole game (yes I was wearing insulated boots on my feet). Now it looks like SI is about to go under: Sports Illustrated Thrown Into Chaos With Mass Layoffs - The New York Times (nytimes.com)

I usually don't post while I'm watching the game. Sometimes I might get online at halftime if something worth talking about happened in the 1st half. I'll usually get back on the computer after the game so I can watch & listen to postgame coverage.

Unfortunately, coach of the year usually goes to someone who had a winning record with a team the pundits thought would suck. Many times it's because of an easy schedule resulting from the prior year's failure. A lot of time this year's coach of the year is next year's bum. I still can't believe that Daboll got it for 2022 over Shanahan, who won with a rookie Mr Irrelevant, going from 3rd in 2021 to 13 wins & the division in 2022. .

It wasn't a personal attack, I was trying to help you stop embarrassing yourself, but you won't listen. Please stop with the ridiculous Pro Bowl nonsense. Nobody took Huntley's Pro Bowl appearance last year as a serious indication of his ability as one of the best QBs in the league. He was a replacement when others dropped out. The Pro Bowl selection is considered a joke with all the dropouts. Without Lamar there is no way Baltimore wins 13 games & is the #1 seed. Just making the playoffs vs #1 seed is a big difference. Purdy isn't going to be MVP & you're right that he could be replaced, but Purdy & SF has nothing to do with Lamar & the Ravens. You might not think Lamar is MVP, but you know who does? The voters.

Pro Bowl 🤪 They lost 3 of their last 4 games with Jackson out & the one playoff game. 1-4 last 5 without Jackson. Give it up, you're embarrassing yourself.

Show me a QB who had a losing record who didn't win a championship who is in the HOF. I can't think of any recent ones, and the only QB I can think of off the top of my head who lost more than he won is Joe Namath, who won what might be the most significant Super Bowl of all time.

Considering the words MOST VALUABLE, a QB has to lead his team to victories in order to be considered. No sub .500 team's QB will ever win MVP because obviously, if he was most valuable, they would have won more games. Think of the Ravens without Lamar Jackson or the Bills without Josh, neither of those teams would be playing this weekend without their guy. You have to be a difference maker-lead your team to wins they wouldn't without you-to be considered MVP. Lamar fits that requirement in Baltimore and since they won the most games, and he had a much lower turnover rate than his competition, he'll win MVP. Too bad you don't like the reality of MVP voting, but there's nothing complaining about it on a message board will do to change it. The writers give huge consideration to victories in MVP voting & don't care if you don't.

I figured it would be a battery source, but it was such a hanging curve ball I had to try to hit it. 😄

All of them. Don't you know that Tua is the AFC's best QB=the Pro Bowl vote said so, while they also said Josh is JAG. 🤣

Just out of curiosity: How does an electric start start when the electricity is out?

You may not, but HOF voters certainly do.

Unless you plan on visiting Niagara Falls, or they're a lot cheaper than the area motels, why so far away? If I was flying, I would have chosen something close to the airport, which is less than 20 miles away from the stadium, or booked a motel in Hamburg, near the stadium.

It's only on QBs. Here, look at Diggs-not there. It IS a QB specific stat. https://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/D/DiggSt00.htm

They actually are. Open the link & for the year by year career stats, it lists QBrec, Quarterback Record https://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/A/AlleJo02.htm

Philadelphia fans are going to greet the Eagles at the airport... with eggs to throw at them.
