  1. That's fair...that team still holds numerous records that have never been equaled and only recently did Boston pass them for most points in a season but had the benefit of extra points for OT wins they did not. Only lost 8 games the entire year. Imagine watching games already knowing your team was going to win before it started 90% of the time. Crazy.
  2. This dude is a trash human being if nothing else.
  3. According to WAR it was the 1928 A's in baseball... https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/27535188/what-greatest-collection-talent-ever-one-roster
  4. There are a lot of great teams but for me, it would have to be the Edmonton Oilers in the mid 80s. Basically had their own All-Star team with 7 future HOF'ers in their prime and several other very very good ones like Esa Tikannen and Craig Simpson. Gretzky, Messier, Coffey, Kurri, Anderson, Fuhr, Lowe, etc... Just dominant. And they could beat you any way you wanted to play. You wanted to be physical? They had some bad MOFO's on that team like McSorely, McClelland, Smith, etc...you want to run and gun? Good luck. They were more than happy to win games 7-4 or 8-5. I know some would say the Yankee teams with Maris and Mantle or even the ones with Ruth. Some might say the Steeler teams in the mid 70s. Some might say the Bulls of the 90s with Jordan or The Celtics or Lakers of the 80s... But for me, I don't think any of them compared to the sheer collection of top end talent the Oilers had.
  5. Talk about taking something and running with it based on absolutely nothing. I mean you gotta really really work OT to try and make this something about the Bills.
  6. I mean most of the places you work at probably think you are a loser too, but you still keep getting hired right?
  7. It's really irrelevant what he did in the past, it's only important what he does here and now. If the Bills can get him to play to his ability then we have a potential under the radar stud WR. If not, then he gets cut. No real risk for the Bills with massive upside potential.
  8. He has all the talent in the world and would easily make the roster if he plays up to his potential and likely would start opposite Shakir. Based off talent alone. The question is, will he be able to keep his head out of his rectum for the next 3 months to make it to that point? If he does, he is going to play a lot. If he doesn't, he likely gets cut out of training camp. Based off sheer physical talent he is easily the most physically gifted WR on the team(not even close) and one of the most physically gifted in the NFL. His RAS score is a ridiculous 9.98. His issue has been how hard he wants to work to realize that talent and what's between his 2 ears. Compare that to an 8.28 RAS for Shakir, 8.06 for Coleman and a 5.22 for Samuel. In the NFL, by comparison Ja'Marr Chase has a 9.82 RAS, Justin Jefferson a 9.69, DK Metcalf 9.66 and Tyreek Hill a 9.39. Just to show how much of an athletic freak Claypool is.
  9. The roster took a hit but I don't think replacing a lot of aging declining veterans is going to be be as much of a hit as many think. In fact, by the end of the year, they may be playing better than they did last year.
  10. But he did catch a "Big Man Touchdown!" in the Patriot playoff game...
  11. "Bogus brothers trying to play when they know they can't hack it... cause they leg is trash like 8-ball jackets... Now tell me I can't tear it up... Go get some toilet paper cause you punt like butt"
  12. Only if his name is Sam and it's Green Eggs and Ham
  13. Oh Cmon over here Cletus...you don't have to be talking all that trash from across the line...cmon on over here...you'll walk over, but you'll be limping back.
  14. I just want him to climb up on Rousseau's back and jump off like it's the top turnbuckle dropping the People's Elbow on Mahomes.
  15. Guess they couldn't sign Ann of Green Gables, so he is the next best option
  16. yeah...had to have a Gabe on the team.
  17. Something like 75 of the top 100 viewed shows in the US in a given year are NFL football games. Think about that for a minute. Out of every other show on TV over the course of a year, only 25 are not some form of NFL football game. That includes all the once a year major award shows, other sporting events, the Kentucky Derby, popular major shows on Primetime Network TV, etc. Literally a random week 7 NFL game outdraws the most popular TV award show that comes on once a year. It's insane... Why would they pay for someone who is getting 300+ million viewers to watch them live that they couldn't buy for any amount of money? If anything , the NFL should have them paying THEM to perform there.
  18. Businesses have been coming here...there is a reason why Buffalo is the hottest housing market of 2024 according to Zillow...and it's not because jobs are leaving anymore. My house value is up close to 40K since the start of this year alone of based on comparable home sales nearby. The gloom and doom era is over...the future is increasingly bright for WNY. Funnily enough, the only people who can't see it are the ones living here or the ones from here that moved away. Zillow’s list of the hottest markets in 2024 is based on an analysis of forecast home value growth, recent housing market velocity and projected changes in the labor market, home construction activity and number of homeowner households. [1] Vaulting Buffalo to the top of the list are recent increases in the number of jobs created compared to the number of new homes construction projects being approved, as well as expectations for steady home values. https://www.zillow.com/research/2024-hottest-market-33566
  19. Well like $450 million is coming directly from the Seneca Niagara Casinos that the state finally collected on after all those years.
  20. It has been in motion for quite sometime and it appears they will not only meet their goal but likely surpass it thanks to a new Netflix deal being worked on along with some other things in the pipeline. Kinda crazy how the NFL basically prints money. https://finance.yahoo.com/news/nfl-wants-25-billion-revenues-110229707.html
  21. Let's wait til we see him in the regular season in like week 8 until this nonsense starts.
  22. I mean these are pretty much all ironed out as soon as you are drafted, the contracts are all set up. Most of the negotiations revolve around offset language. Basically the contract is a forgone conclusion. Effectively, everyone knew his contract 1 second after his name was announced at the podium.
  23. I've pretty much said the same thing...it's going to be a pick your poison setup for the D. You want to take the deep balls away. Cool we will attack you underneath with Samuel, Shakir and Kincaid with some Cook sprinkled in. You want to take the short stuff away? Cool, Allen will just play backyard ball and throw it over your head when your defenders look silly trying to get him in the backfield. You want to try and shut down the middle of the field? Cool, we will just run sweeps and throw to the outside. You want to try and come after Allen? Cool, we will just run draws up the middle with Cook and throw quick hitters to the WR's outside. Anything you want to do, we can do what you can't defend. This offense is going to be extremely fun to watch IMO. They have completely diversified the skillsets on it.
  24. But at least it will be a night game... And with Miami already setting heat records in May and having more hours already this month with heat indexes over 108 then they have in any other YEAR total outside of last year which was the hottest on record there. With summer having not even started, it's likely to be another brutal first month and a half down there to play in.
