Why do people (especially Ds) care so much about what this guy says or does? Even most of his followers (Cafeteria Catholics) only believe what they want anyway.

After 3 years.

That's true. But you gotta be at least average in all phases of the game if you are lights out in one. Last year Chiefs were lights out on O and pedestrian on D and look what it got them. Same could be said for Falcons a few years ago. This is the 3rd year of the rebuild. Should be just about done. Mostly is, but the O still stinks. My response was that he didn't deserve an A+. To get an A+, a GM needs to have at least one hide on the wall IMHO. I don't give anyone credit for salary cap room, it's what you do with it which he hasn't had a chance yet. Stay tuned ... Go BILLS !!

Easy A is too generous IMHO. Yes, he did turn the roster over. Yes he drafted JA. He also inherited the 10th top scoring offense and after 3 years has turned it into the 23rd. I view before the third year of your rebuild if you have to flush 9/11 of your offense and start over and still they can't score as kind of a fail. And IMHO you don't give a guy an easy A until the QB he drafted IS a great QB (which JA is not (yet hopefully)). B-

Bill Bellyache does. A blocked punt in game 1 vs us is probably the difference between us playing on the road tomorrow vs at The Ralph.

It's too early. Wait til the season's over.

I had a friend that i worked with that lived in Houston and was a sports nut. She of course hated that the Oilers moved and was super excited about the Texans starting up. There were several names in the mix including Roughnecks and a few others. they had polls etc but when the owner announced Texans it came out of left field. She didn't like it, but what can you do? If the Bills ever moved and Buffalo got a new team (like that would happen or I would be around) I would want a better name like Buffalos or something. Or maybe just pull a Madonna/Cher and go with just go with Buffalo.

I think the Texans did it right in regards to new name and suits. I hate when teams like the Clowns try to pretend like they're the old team when THEY ARE NOT. Oilers are now the Titans and The Ravens are the old Clowns. I wanted Texans to be either the Roughnecks or Fire Ants. Texans is a dumb name and take it from a native Texan that lived there a long time, there have been tons of teams in Texas called the Texas. Heck, even the Chiefs started out as the Dallas Texans. I agree, dumb name. Keeping the name the same is the NFLs way of downplaying the fact that teams move and leave the fans high and dry. Here, take this dumpster fire but still call it what the old good team was.

I agree but am rooting for the titans so if they make it to AFC Championship it would be at our house. Also we've only played one dome game this year and it was against a good D and our O was dang good. Kindof wondering if maybe Daboll installed a dome offense. Hopefully it works in their dome as it did in Smiley's. Go BILLS in a dome and on the road!

Maybe if Coach Marrone had dumped Hackett Jr AND gotten a better QB. The team is pretty much a mirror image of the current team. Lights out D and putrid O. Just an average O and we are seriously in the SB discussion. Should offense really be this hard when you have a franchise QB and decent talent around him?

Norv Turner may be available. He his presently listed as OC in Carolina. If he did become available, I'd make a serious run at him. Carolina was ranked 10th in O with Cam in 2018 and 16th with one of the other Allens at QB in 2019. Has a Daboll offense ever been ranked that high?

I agree with the bolded, but the rest not so much. 2015 and 2016 offenses were top 1/3 of the league in scoring. 2016 was 16th overall and 10th in points. 2015 we were 13th overall and 12th in points. Pair this D with an offense that productive and we're in the SB conversation. Doesn't seem like too much to ask. Our talent is not bad enough to justify our production IMHO.

Our odds are the same as the other 7 teams playing next week. Championships are won on the field. on a side note, whoever thought up this odds thing is a genius. They're ALWAYS right. If Buffalo wins S B they can say, well, I told you there was a .5% chance they would. If not, they can say, well, odds were 99.5 against them winning.

2018

Funny. Your experience is simular to mind except I was working at a McDonald's in Lewisville TX. I was not a Buffalo fan yet but I also worked at Xerox so I knew a lot of people that were so was rooting for Buffalo. We didn't have a TV though so I would ask people if they had a score. Thought Buffalo was going to win.

And SB opponent walk through tapes.

Why did the temperatures go down substantially in 1963, 1973, 1983, 2012, and 1998 while the CO2 was climbing?

I was at the airport getting ready to fly to Buffalo for a game. My wife, the social media butterfly, tells me, there was an embassy blown up by protestors because of an internet video. I'm thinking, it's September 11. Those "protestors" had some serious fire power to gather together at the last minute due to a video. Didn't make sense. Still doesn't. And then there was that email to Chelsea ... https://blogs.wsj.com/washwire/2015/10/22/hillary-clintons-email-to-chelsea-stars-in-benghazi-hearing/

1998 - We had our spot racked up and went into NO with Rob Johnson as QB and laid it on Iron Mike and the hapless Saints. https://www.footballdb.com/games/boxscore.html?gid=1998122706. I was at that game and very dissapointed Flutie did not play. 1999 - Who could forget Rob Johnson's massive performance winning him the starting job vs Tennessee? https://www.footballdb.com/games/boxscore.html?gid=2000010206

I'm thinking it's Texans > 2nd seed > 6th seed. Then the AFC Championship game is OUR HOUSE!

I don't think our offense is to the point where we can say, we got this under control and can put it on ice for a week only to get out a week later fresh. Our defense maybe, but after last week, maybe not. If any starters have nagging injuries etc then hold them out. Otherwise play everyone most of the game. Damn the torpedoes, we need the practice.

and of those 31 teams thAt have thrown for 300 yards, 22 of them are behind us in the W column.

"Stable"? We only have one RB we can actually give the football to. The Yeldon thing is puzzling. If he's a fumbler why did they sign him? If he's not a process guy, why did they sign him?

Looks like she has only 3 fingers. Does she have Mickey Mouse hands?

Grassley tweets sound like they are from a teeny bopper too like Trump's.
