Something like this: 3 seconds from snap to throw. surely our OLIne will be able to do that if we have a QB that can throw it.

I expect them to dust off the Trent Defense.

Someone like you. LOL

I have never seen him throw a bomb in 1 full regular season game approx and 7 pre sesson games. So I assume he can't until I see him throw one. And yes, the OLIne could hold long enough. they did for Josh to throw a few. doesn't take long for the QB to drop back and then throw it way down field to a guy that at the time is about 15 yards down field. Even Hotrod could do that.

Like a fundamentals for example. He ain't anywhere there yet on that.

I'm gonna have to see if I can find Smoky and the Bandit on youtube or something. Jackie Gleason was great in that one too.

I've been hearing that for almost 20 years too ... Hopefully this time it's different.

Someday it will be Next year. I've been hearing that for 18 years and counting.

I joined the USMC in 1976 months after the guy got killed in a pugill stick fight. I never got slapped or punched. I did have the Drill Instructor put his hAnd up around my Adams apple choking me a little for a few seconds once. Never saw anyone get punched (not saying it didn't happen to you). https://tvnews.vanderbilt.edu/broadcasts/42895

You're welcome. It was an honor.

I tried to sign up and got told what they should have told Nasty Nate after the Chargers game when he went to get on the team bus, "It's full."

This is a new phenomenon?

New York is one of the more redneck states for this. If they let the people decide, it will pass. If they leave to the politicians with their pockets full or big pharma and alcohol industry money, it wont. That's the way we got it passed in my state. Citizen's initiative. Do they have that in New York?

i see this the "Franchise QB" used in relation to Josh frequently here. all this time I thought a "Franchise QB" had to prove it on the field with 300 yard games, 4 TD games, and masterful comebacks. Had the bar been lowered? Now just a high first puts you there? Is Bernie T a "Franchise QB"? Marcus Marriota? Josh Rosen? Winston? I just hope you're not jinxing him.

Nice rant. Yeah. PLAYOFFS !! WE made it last year and you're right 2 in a row would be sweet. I'm not ruling it out. In fact, I expect it. "When I walk on the field i don't want to win, I expect to win." - - Chan Gailey

TLDR

We got in based on the rules the NFL set up before the season. We won more Conference games than any of the other 9-7 teams. So, we did get in based on the games we won. Can't we just say we made the playoffs without all the apologizing and blaming luck and saying we're not worthy? Teams back in all the time. We helped a few during the drought get in but I never heard any of them moaning about it. Bills done good in 2017. No need to make excuses for it.

Yes and No. I remember probably 10 years ago in Training Camp, the Cheaps released multi year pro bowler offensive lineman Brian Waters. I wanted us to pick him up because our line stunk then too. We didn't. Bill Bellyache did and they went to the SB that year. He was also from my alma mater (North Texas State University) and hardly anybody from there gets to NFL aside from Mean Joe Green. " Waters was named an All-Pro twice and was selected to the Pro Bowl five times in his eleven-year career with the Kansas City Chiefs.[3] In 2003, " He was a FA. We passed,, they didn't. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brian_Waters Friendly refs is part of it, but they also think it's important which we evidently do not.

We only lost by a TD last year. And we removed our offensive boat anchor.

Definitely NOT a check at this point. They've swung. That's it. What happened to the 3 year time line?

Ivory didn't play much. Made some nice plays. A good receiver. What did you expect to see? 20 carries for 101? he stays this patient and puts a losing season of two together he'll be out on his bum. I would suggest he get a sense of urgency.

I do. He wasn't good enough to bring to mini camp.
