  1. Get those Billdoes ready to throw against the glass in the box she's in.
  2. 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.
  3. 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)
  4. 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.
  5. 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. .
  6. 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.
  7. 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.
  8. 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.
  9. 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.
  10. I figured it would be a battery source, but it was such a hanging curve ball I had to try to hit it. 😄
  11. 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. 🤣
  12. Just out of curiosity: How does an electric start start when the electricity is out?
  13. Now no delivery of today's paper until Friday. It looks like they really are looking to become a digital only paper in the future. : An important message to our valued audience: Dear Reader, Due to continued snowfall, travel ban mandates, and the safety of our staff and contractors, delivery of the Thursday Buffalo News print edition will be deferred until Friday. We apologize again for the inconvenience. As a full-access subscriber, you can read a digital replica of the print edition online at buffalonews.com/eedition.
  14. You may not, but HOF voters certainly do.
  15. 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.
  16. 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
  17. 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
  18. Philadelphia fans are going to greet the Eagles at the airport... with eggs to throw at them.
  19. 13 wins in 16 games is enough for Lamar to beat out Josh for MVP. That and too many turnovers for Josh. Lamar can have the MVP as long as Josh is Super Bowl MVP.
  20. Cousins looks a lot better on paper than he does on the field, plus he's coming back from a major injury that some players never are the same after.
  21. Go back to 2018. We were drafting 21 & 22 & made it up to #7. Many around here couldn't imagine getting up to 7 from 21, but Beane found a way and got a little lucky because nobody took Josh in the top 6. If Pittsburgh wants to they could package a combination of players & pick to move way up. However, it takes guts & a conviction that you are drafting the right franchise QB.
  22. Belichick's agent is probably texting the Eagles management tonight.
  23. Anyone have "Eagles will have the biggest choke in Philadelphia sports since the 1964 Phillies" on their Bingo Card?
  24. Tampa is the place to get a coach fired. In 1986 the Bills players knew if they lost in Tampa that Bullough would get fired. One of the (most likely true) rumors was that Bruce Smith said to his teammates in the D huddle that he'd kill anyone who made a tackle. Bills lost. Hank was fired. Levy came in & the rest is history.
  25. Actually it would have been Jackson vs Rudolph on CBS because if Pittsburgh had won the Mahomes/Stroud game would have been on ABC.
