  1. I just saw the back sports page of Newsday: "Fromm Bad to Worse"
  2. I looked at the last 20 years & the Bills have about a 30% hit rate on 5th rounders. Some, like Fromm, never played a down for the Bills. So the reality is if they didn't take Fromm, they still would be expected to draft a bust 70% of the time in the 5th round. Fromm just fell into the majority.
  3. The 5th round is the time you take a flyer on a guy. They had him pretty high on their board at that point. The Bills don't have a long term answer at backup QB & the 5th was as good a round as any to try to find one. Unfortunately, Fromm didn't show much from the time he got here. Last year reports out of camp were pretty dismal & this year they didn't get much better. They gave him the beneit of the doubt because they didn't have the normal off season practices last year and no preseason games. When I heard Fromm was starting Sunday my 1st thoughts were he's going to have a game rivaling Peterman's career.
  4. I'm not sure about posters, but there was definitely a Boston sportswriter who before the 2020 season predicted Fromm would end up as the Bills starter before the end of the season. I think it was wishful thinking on his part because deep down he knew the only way the Patriots would ever win another AFC east title would be after Josh is no longer the Bills starting QB.
  5. McDermott outcoached Belichick today. Hit the road.
  6. He's taking Beasley's spot and has responded. It reflects well on him and the Bills coaches,
  7. I hit dislike because the link has the Bills picking 20th, ahead of NE. BOO!
  8. Have you seen Rosen play? The last time I saw him he came in in garbage time threw a pick & got pulled for Atlanta's 3rd stringer-with nothing on the line, the game was essentially over! If he's still their #2, I could see Rosen playing in the 4th quarter if the bills are blowing out Atlanta. It could end up the same: Rosen in, throws a pick, Rosen benched. This week I was looking at a 2018 draft day video and I still can't believe how bad Rosen turned out. The guys on the NFL network broadcast loved Rosen, especially Troy Aikman, who definitely preferred the wrong Josh. When Rosen made Atlanta, I was rooting for him to turn things around, but after watching him in the game he got pulled, I've completely written the guy off. It must really suck to be so good in college to be a top 10 pick at the most coveted position & not be able to play in the NFL. Sort of like the characters in the song Glory Days.
  9. Cleveland, NYG, NYJ, Denver & Indy. All would be a better team if they had drafted Josh instead of the guy they picked. The only one with an excuse was Indy because they had no idea Luck would retire a year later & went with the best offensive lineman to protect him.
  10. Don't be so proud, call Kamil Loud.
  11. For the job they've done this year our O-line deserves Meadcoin. @mead107
  12. One time a guy near us threw up on himself, left his seat, came back & when he returned security kicked him out.
  13. I know, but I couldn't resist joking about it since there are people that tell others never to tell anyone their mother's maiden name.
  14. Every day is Festivus on Bills message boards with a daily airing of grievances. One day the Bills will go 17-0, sweep the playoffs and shut out all their opponents except for the Super Bowl where they'll give up 3 points & someone will blame the coach for ruining a perfect season.
  15. I was at work in downtown Albany and I messed up & didn't capitalize the N & Y for N.Y. so it ended up Albany,n.y. I was living in Guilderland at the time but Albany sounded better & was more recognizable. Thanks, now we can steal your identity😄
  16. Houston, we have a problem: 21 Texans on the list & 12 on the visiting Chargers.
  17. Time for Bates & Doyle to show us what they've got.
  18. Gabe Davis & Cody Ford to Covid list, only Bobby Hart off.
  19. Does this mean she's going to Seattle and demanding an NHL tryout?
  20. They're not some scalpers hanging around the stadium. Come On Man!
