Yeah, how many times after a transgression did he say he would learn from it and try yo be a better teammate and person, then get in trouble for something else?

Since the NFL changed the touchback rule to put the ball at the 25, no player should run it out. I think I've only seen a few times where a player gets it out to the 25 or beyond.

I heard I believe Ian Rappoport talking about Pees retiring and the possibility of Wink Martindale replacing him no I thought he made a mistake but then read Don also has the same nickname.

Dude, Either turn off autocorrection or read your post before you submit it.

Yes, I think many of us have gotten to the point where we dislike the Patriots so much that it's not worth going through rooting against them only to watch them win again. You know, doing the same thing over and over expecting different results. INSANITY! I have watched every Super Bowl since #4 but if the Pats are in again, I am leaning towards not watching. The Super Bowl ads aren't worth watching as much as they used to be either. We have a good group of people that always gets together to watch but I may have to pass. Unfortunately, the College Football Playoffs are starting to get almost as bad with Alabama winning so frequently. I have no reason to hate Alabama though.

Yep, after 2004 season when the Bills won 6 in a row by big scores before blowing the "win-and-your-in" game to the Steelers backups. There also seemed to be a lot of excitement when Rex was hired a few days after the 2014 season.

I might trade up to get LB Roquan Smith. That dude is fast.

Nor EJ Manuel, just focusing on Bills. Has he also forgotten about Tebow? (Uh oh, do I get a warning for mentioning him?)

Remember that the Texans have Will Fuller, who looked great with Watson at QB, so I don't think they'd be looking to add a starting WR. San Francisco, definitely and they have a lot of cap space. Rams right now have to think of Robert Woods as their #1 so I don't see them competing with what Sammy may get offered by SF and other teams.

I’m convinced that “process” is just a current buzzword that is being overused and frequently in the wrong context. As a trained Industrial engineer, I was all about process improvement. An auto assembly line is a good example of a process as an engineer would determine the best order of stations for assembling cars that would be the most efficient. The Philadelphia 76ers started this “trust the process “ BS but theirs was easy to understand. They got rid of high priced veterans and tanked to get high draft picks to build thru the draft. I’m still not totally sure what McDermott’s “process “ is that he keeps talking about. At times it seems convoluted. They let several good players leave in free agency (Woods, Gilmore, Z.Brown, Robey-Coleman) Then they have to use their draft picks to replenish those positions. They got rid of high priced players like Watkins, Darby, Dareus that they said didn’t fit or weren’t all in on “the process “. Then they trade for Kelvin Benjamin after they depleted the WR position and the remaining guys were injured or not producing. However McD continuously talks about improving the team for now and the future. Then, they actually get this talent gutted team to play hard and together and break the dang playoff drought. A process needs to be defined so it can be evaluated for success. So, I’d have to say so far it is a success, whatever it is.

Yes, there have been a few instances in the last 3 years where the Bills seemed to get a lucky call and I don't think they once got to the line and snapped it before either the replay booth chimed in or the opposing coach threw the red flag. You'd think after 3 years as starter, Tyrod would be better at this. Also, yes, Tyrod took more deep shots with a healthy Sammy. That was also a bone of contention because they too frequently did it on 3rd and short. Different OC and head coach, though.

Special Teams- Does Danny Crossman have something on someone at OBD? Under his 3rd head coach and still has a job. Considering who’s left across these 3 coaching regimes, maybe it’s Brandon. I haven’t seen any official stats, but here’s what I grabbed off Yahoo Sports: Punt return avg- 10th Kickoff return average- 24th Punting average- 16th Punts inside 20- tied for 15th Punt coverage- Yds per return- 5th Kickoff coverage, YPR- 21st So, for the categories I listed, that’s 2 in top 10, 2 at average, and 2 below average. Actually better than I thought but when you have a weak offense is average good enough?

Speedy linebackers. Guys that could catch a running Bortles.

They went up to get Losman.

And he's now 2-5 overall, but this is the 2nd game with KC (Indy in 2013) where he did his part to get a big lead that they couldn't hold.

Did you guys catch Mike Florio's comments during NBC's broadcast of Atl/Rams game? He said from the people he's talked to, they tend to think that last year's crop of QBs of Trubisky, Watson, Mahomes was better than this year's. Darnold is considered too inconsistent but with some upside while they wonder if Rosen has any more upside (i.e. He is what he is).

Have you all noticed recently that for the set of scripted plays to start the game, Tyrod and the offense look so good? It’s the play calls after that that are usually the problem. Hopefully they can score a TD on the first drive

I thought Mike & Mike didn't part on good terms?

Promo is probably under contract (CBS doesn't give out info) and he wanted to work with Jim Nantz. Yes, money talks but I would be surprised if he left CBS. I heard one reporter/analyst's opinion that ESPN is going to start over (I.e. McDonough gone) and they're considering going back to a 3 man booth. As the 3rd, I like buffaloboyATL's idea of Frank Caliendo. No! He sounds like he has marbles in his mouth. Maybe Phil Simms gets a new gig. I thought he was pretty good. That episode farting in the booth with Nantz sealed his fate with CBS.

In the article they say Belichick still has a grudge against the Jets for how they treated him. I had been thinking that I wouldn’t be surprised if the Pats traded up in the draft to get one of the QBs

If this happened, OBD may spontaneously combust. That would be something though if Belichick orchestrated a trade of Brady to get the last laugh.

I also liked the play by Taiwan Jones. I don’t remember the game nor the situation other than that it was 3rd and long and I think he caught a swing pass and weaved his way thru the defense making moves and breaking tackles and reached out and got the 1st down. I think it was the play when the players on the sidelines went nuts afterwards.

Saw that. For just about any other NFL team, I wouldn't believe it. With the Browns, could happen.

Yeah, I’ve always been a Brees fan with the Saints. They’ve always been fun to watch.

Wasn’t it Dan Fouts that pointed out the single coverage on Boyd before the ball was snapped?
