  2. When Dan Campbell talked about biting kneecaps, he had Conrad Dobler on his mind.

  4. One thing RT, although I'd like to see more O-line changes. I heard a rumor that Morse is gone. If that's true they need a new C & at least 1 new G. If Bates moves to C, 2 Gs. So we need 3 new O-linemen before anything else.
  5. They'll get Rodgers and after he loses on opening day he'll go into a dark house for 4 months & never leave. Every week Hackett will deliver his groceries to his door & beg him to come back through the ring camera & Rodgers will tell him " I need more darkness." Same Old Jets
  6. 2001 wasn't the very beginning. I remember posting the day of the Rob Johnson trade in 1998 and that wasn't my 1st post.
  7. We don't have a #2 WR & some of you want to trade our #1. Come On Man!
  8. Let's see Hodgins next year before we crown him. So far he hasn't done anything more than Robert Foster did in 2018 and we know how that worked out.
  9. It dropped last year too in the middle of the week. The last 2 SBs I went to were XLVIII in NJ and 50 in Santa Clara, California. In NJ the prices dropped below $2,000 the week of the game. I paid $1,857 for a sideline endzone upper deck ticket & could have gotten one cheaper if I sat behind the goal posts. I had an advantage since I could drive to the game that Sunday, so I didn't have to make advance plans. I got the ticket on either Tuesday or Wednesday the week of the game. For SB 50 I panicked after what had happened in Arizona the year before when prices went up to a minimum of 10 grand a seat and bought in November for $4,726/ticket. By the end of January (game was on 2/7) the price was $3,500/ticket.
  10. I've been to 6 Super Bowls. The only one where I wasn't surrounded by fans of one team or the other was XXVIII in Atlanta.
  11. Let's remember how many people criticized the guy last year who told us Harrison Phillips was gone before we say that this story isn't real.
  12. I had a bunch of reservations before the Bills got eliminated and I had to cancel everything. From Albany round trip Friday/Tuesday to Phoenix $460 (I ended up with a credit I'll use later in the year for a different flight), Car rental $614 for Sat at midnight -Tues 8 AM, Motel 4 nights in Casa Grand (an hour away) $1,475 with ability to cancel, prepay was $32/night cheaper & I would have cancelled & switched if the Bills got in. There was no way I could stay in Phoenix or Glendale where anything decent that was left was around $1,000-1,500/.night & the only places left were dumps.
  13. Not that it matters to us now, but the cheapest Super Bowl tickets have dropped $2,000 since Monday. They started around $6,000, went up to $6.500 a few days ago & tonight at 12:03 AM they're at $3,600. This is from NFL On Location, fees included. StubHub is seeing the same price drops. They're a little higher than On Location, but have dropped 2 grand too.
  14. My prior sticker had the mileage written on the back that faces the driver. This time it's printed on the sticker.
  15. We're not signing Barkley. The Giants are either tagging him or signing him to a long term contract. He will never make it to free agency & even if he did, which won't happen, the Bills can't afford him.
  16. Just because we're not drafting a 1st round RB and not signing Barkley doesn't mean the Bills won't sign a cheaper free agent or draft a bigger back in the middle rounds of the draft. Drafting a 1st round RB or signing Barkley is a pipe dream that simply will not happen. The Bills need O-line & D back help & one of those positions is where they will draft.
  17. Brady now says he won't join the Fox broadcasting crew until 2024. I wouldn't be surprised if he never announces a game & reaches some kind of settlement before the 2024 season. https://www.nfl.com/news/tom-brady-says-he-expects-to-begin-his-fox-broadcasting-career-in-fall-2024
  18. Let's get real. The Bills are not drafting a RB in the 1st round and they're not signing Barkley. So, any debate on whether one guy is better than the other is pretty much a moot point as far as the Bills 2023 roster is concerned.
  19. Actually, Cookie came 1st. Cookie was signed before the start of the 1962 season & Kemp was picked up on waivers during the 1962 season.
  20. As long as the Bills are contenders Beane & McDermott are safe. Changing coaches & GMs because the team didn't win the Super Bowl is a very dangerous thing. There is no guarantee that the new guys will perform any better than the guys they replaced, and in a lot of cases the instability makes things worse.
  21. Why stop at Donald? Lets get the best 5 O-linemen in the league, the best RB, the 4 best WRs, 3 of the best LBs and the 4 best D-backs. Then we'll trade for Mahomes and keep him on the bench as insurance and for good measure KC will throw in Kelce. No need for the next 10 drafts & we'll tweak the salary cap for 1 great season. Time to go for it all.
  22. Reeves never won a Super Bowl as a head coach. He was an assistant coach on the 1977-8 Cowboys Super Bowl winning team.
  23. Reasonable explanation as to why Vontae was sleeping. He decided to stop driving at the halfway point of his drive home.
