  1. Oh the glory days 4 years ago when we had 6!!! Bills named Williams AKA - TRUE "Bills" They didn't win that much, but c'mon, what's important? 2015: Aaron, Duke, Karlos, Kyle, Mario 2016: Aaron, Chris, Duke, Kyle, Mario, Mike - if only Karlos could have hung on!
  2. I believe this. They had already signed Butler, Jefferson, Addison long before he bailed. He was a Hauschka-like gone. Addison's a DE but his signing plus Epensa reinforces the fact that Jefferson is there to play DT. Horrible Harry coming back, Oliver's not going anywhere. Butler and Jefferson signed to real contracts makes 4 DT that would start in front of both Jordan Phillips and Star. Jordan Phillips was THE major liability in multiple games - Eagles notable among them. He wasn't playing the scheme well - too much freelancing which did get him sacks but killed the Bills on runs.
  3. From all accounts RAID doesn't matter for speed with SSDs . The improvement is barely noticeable - I foolishly went that route RAID 0 with a work machine ~6 years ago - it was pointless (and expensive for the dedicated card). RAID 10 to make a bigger, more secure against failure disk is all good if that's the aim.
  4. OL is the weakest position on this team. Josh Allen had the worst pass protection of any QB in Houston since David Carr played there. +The Bills have too many good DL as it is. NO
  5. Uhm - more like they ignore doing any real research on the Bills b/c the small market doesn't matter to them.
  6. Tampa and Indy have better futures with QBs at the end of the line and visibly in decline. NE?? LOL ESPN is garbage - yet again.
  7. That's not a hint of anything about the Pats* - all he did is state who he'd prefer himself.
  8. https://www.cnbc.com/2019/11/10/nfls-richest-billionaire-owners.html That's what CNBC says. "His company, East Resources, sold most of its assets to Royal Dutch Shell for $4.7 billion in 2010. Pegula used some of those assets to build a portfolio of sports properties, including the NHL’s Buffalo Sabres and the Bills. " For a relatively small and economically struggling city like Buffalo to have such wealthy team owners is an incredible blessing. Among other things, it means we don't need to spend a lot of time fretting about the OP... The internet. It's amazing. Also noteworthy from the list, I thought - Terry Pegula is the 2nd youngest owner in the top 10 (and the very actively involved Kim considerably younger than Terry) - so not only do we have wealthy owners (both of whom are area natives too), we probably have a lot more stability ahead than most.
  9. Given that the poll number is running at 92.41% right now, I'd say you nailed it!!!
  10. Sounds like he's perfect for a Gase-coached team then!
  11. TE is the only question now - and if Knox can just get rid of the drops he can join the list of plus-players on this team! Hopefully someone bought him a jugs machine for his house!
  12. Pretty annoying since Deshaun Watson was widely praised for nearly an identical play - the difference was Watson was pitching to a veteran TE who was heads-up, Josh Allen was tossing it to the not-quite-ready-rookie Dawson Knox. So kind of Jerry Sullivan with a slightly different shtick. The main difference that Sully trolls his own fans.
  13. Kraft's behavior involved 2x 50+ year-olds - help me with the comparison.
  14. I'm with you on your general idea that the schedule is much harder, but Goff as a QB?? The guy is QB garbage - just behind Trubisky for the biggest bust in the last decade. They covered up his play by stocking the roster - and are now suffering the salary cap and draft pick consequences. Rams have a lock on 4th place in their division probably for a few years. You also left out Wentz and Dak from last year so a bit misleading.
  15. I care less about when except that it seems a bit silly to delay a late Summer start when that is most likely the BEST time to be playing with a looming fall rebound in the disease. I guess my version would be get started, play as much as works, if it rebounds pause - not cancel - and resume again after the second wave.
  16. Bad math dude. it's a ratio of .0097 which equals .97% NOT .0097%. Roughly 1/100 which is pretty much what has been suspected all along. Makes it 10 times as deadly as the flu with the massive downside that it's more contagious because the symptoms often don't show (and we don't have a vaccine). As I said - bad math in Gordio's post. If it were really .01% it would have killed only 33K Americans after it had infected everyone - and that's a number we are proven not to care about. Comparable with the annual flu: https://www.cdc.gov/flu/about/burden/preliminary-in-season-estimates.htm But again - the offered math was off by a factor of ONE HUNDRED.
  17. I suspect that number is low by a couple of digits, but if it really were that low, it would be insanity to disrupt the world for such a small number. We all have to die of something, and most things come in a lot higher that .009%. We don't live our lives around it.
  18. In fairness - the whole division will have a much harder schedule - AFC West and NFC West this season - probably the two best divisions in the league - ouch. We aren't going for the wild card this time, but getting a 1st round bye will be very challenging especially with the new format.
  19. ...in overtime, in their house... BEFORE they traded away D Hop for a bag of potato chips... The Bills are clearly better than the Texans now by any fair expectation.
