  1. That's a point I've been trying to make around here for a couple of years now. My own opinion is that the Bills have had so much success in the last 5 years that it's hard for me to argue that their philosophy about how to build a team is wrong. That's not to say that there is no room for argument, because there certainly is. For example, I have said for a long time the same thing several other people say, namely, the bills need a difference maker on the defensive side of the ball and Beane's only attempt to get one, Miller, didn't work out. But with respect to running back, I think it's quite clear that the Bills philosophy is that it is not wise to spend big dollars for a difference maker at that position. And that was my point in this thread - it isn't enough to say that Cook is worth x million dollars. He may be worth that in the market, but within the Bills system he is not.
  2. And my point is firing more people won't help. No one said the system was great. How do you fix that? Fire 100 more people and you might only spend 24 hours on hold.
  3. He looks like a perfect fit at FS in McD's system. McBeane clearly had their eye on this guy, and Washington wasn't using him last year- why didn't we trade a late round pick for him at the deadline? He certainly could've helped our playoff Defense.
  4. Stay focused here LOL, we used a completely different system this year. He was in a different role as well. WITHIN that system you would see a proportional increase. It's ridiculous to think otherwise.
  5. It's obviously a prudential calculation. My sense is that FA has changed somewhat. It is rarely an opportunity to grab a player that will have transformative effect. The best players just don't become available. In that case, retaining players that fit your system and that you have reasonable confidence are either ascending, or likely to retain most of their efficacy while the contract is hard to get out of, is the most rational approach. No doubt, it would be a more palatable method if Beane hit on a few elite playmakers early in the draft.
  6. It seems redundant for the Chiefs to re-sign him as Xavier Worthy can take the top off a defense and Rashee Rice should be back (barring suspension). I'd be interested if the injuries didn't slow him down. Hard to tell. Also, his reason for wanting out of Baltimore was the offensive system. Not sure if Brady's system is the right fit for him.
  7. Levi summed it up just right. The only election in my lifetime that I did not vote was 2016. The choices were too awful. After watching how democrats and their media brethren behaved 2016-2020 (impeachment clown shows, collusion mania, Pelosi tearing up SOTU, covid hypocrisy, checking off on mostly peaceful riots, etc) I ran to vote for Trump and not because I suddenly liked him. I voted for him over Kamala because of the continued nonsense from democrats. The “don’t say gay” lies. Being called a bigoted homophobe because I don’t believe third grade students should have access to library books about anal. Called a racist/fascist/nazi for wanting existing border laws enforced. The absurdity of “he’s mentally fit for the presidency” trumpeted here and in the media. All the issues being described as 80/20 are exactly that and dems are on the wrong side of them all. There’s nothing to like about them. Therefore, Trump.
  8. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14688153/midwest-city-downtown-locals-scared-mad-max.html Midwest city's downtown is now Mad Max-style hellhole where locals are scared to go out after 8pm Surging crime and a diminishing police presence has turned a Missouri city into a hellhole, leaving locals afraid to step outside after dark. Downtown Kansas City has become a hotspot for illegal street racing and reckless ATV and dirt bike riders tearing through the neighborhoods - chaos that escalated last month when a police officer was hit by an ATV, Fox 4 reported. Now, frustrated business owners and locals are weighing whether to abandon downtown altogether, blaming the Dem-run city's leadership and law enforcement for failing to curb the chaos and restore a sense of safety. 'This isn't a race issue, this isn't a political issue, this is a safety issue,' David Lopez, a local business owner, told Fox News, noting how chaos right outside is a constant occurrence, posing extreme danger for the surrounding community. 'I feel as though this city is about unsafe as it's been since my family has been at 207 Southwest Boulevard, and that's 45 years this September,' he added. 'When things out of your control start to chip away at the very foundation of what you've done for four generations, it hurts.' Not only is the community feeling the impact as they return to the safety of their own homes by nightfall, but long-standing local businesses are bearing the brunt - watching foot traffic vanish and revenue slip away. 'People are going to leave - that's it,' Lopez, the general manager at Manny's Mexican Restaurant, added to the outlet. Democrat Mayor Quinton Lucas has faced growing anger over the mounting chaos.
  9. I agree. Listening to the pressers today. These are not bad guys who tried to beat the system. Both acknowledge that it is their responsibility to know what they are putting in their bodies and that they failed in that area. That is why they are not appealing the suspensions and are taking their punishment. Listening to Beane, based on their prior records he had no reason to doubt their sincerity and move forward.
  10. I’ll be the bad guy and say I’m not a TJ Watt guy. Just like his brother he crushes stats becuase he freelances on defense. It results in impressive numbers but part of the reason the team never wins anything becuase he doesn’t play within the system. Just what I see when I watch him. JJ was way worse with his gap integrity. Anyway not a fan and he isn’t getting moved anyways.
  11. Oh I forgot we evaluate on race these days. That’s got to be the lamest excuse I’ve heard. I suppose to counter, a white safety was better. 🙄
  12. Kind of thinking the Bills feel guys like Johnson, Morris, and Hollins will be replaced by low cost players who've been in the system. Gore replaces Johnson, Davidson replaces Morris, and Virgil/Shavers replaces Hollins. When you're up against the cap, these are the moves you need to make.
  13. The way I look at it there's a major political and social transition taking place where the needs of America the country are now being prioritized over the needs of America the Empire. This is what the voters have demanded. As we've all lived under a system where those in power served the Empire its something many do not understand or many that are dependent on the Empire do not want.
  14. "Fiscally conservative, socially liberal." Depends how you ask the question. One take from a group that fits the description: https://www.adamsmith.org/blog/politics-government/fiscally-conservative-socially-liberal The problem is with how political coalitions form in our two-party/first past the post/federalist system. I live in what is now a deep blue state. The percentage supporting socially conservative views is maybe 30%. The liberal legislature keeps trying to undo a 1990s thing called the Taxpayer Bill of Rights, which basically requires a ballot measure to increase taxes. We've had a few of those. They all fail. People don't want higher taxes and higher spending either. So this kind of works in a state with high median levels of education, no particularly strong ethnic voting blocs, etc. I can't see it working in New York or Arkansas. The best Musk can do is to fulfill the Perot role, by dragging Dems and their candidates toward the center.
  15. It's not like the WR room is "stacked" after Shakir there's likely going to be opportunity for snaps. I do think there's a chance Samuel settles in as the WR4 "gadget" player while there's a competition for two "outside" (for lack of a better technical term) WR slots between Keon, Palmer, and Moore. And it's not impossible that there's either an injury that slots up Moore or that Moore if he has a really good camp can displace Palmer or Keon. As you said it's not like with the draft occupying a lot of slots on NFL rosters and cap space dried up that there was going to be much better of an opportunity for Moore. He's getting a shot to displace starters in a very good system.
  16. McDermott runs the whole system, and the system is predicated on coordinators deferring to him and running the team his way. Zero chance he brings in anyone that could possibly be considered an equal, especially not if that person wanted to try a different approach.
  17. Yeah it's definitely the potential I am referencing and not what Coleman has entered the league as. Adams was a very high volume target at Fresno State. I remember being surprised he went in round 2 because I didn't think he could get open in the NFL. And he couldn't. He basically had to re-learn how to play the position at the pro level. So he didn't reach his potential until year 5. He really opened my eyes to that type of unusual skillset. My biggest issue with the Coleman selection was that he looked to be a LONG way from where he needed to be. The Bills needed help right away. They needed what BTJ became. Coleman performed better than I expected statistically but a lot of that was literally Josh Allen buying time that should get any receiver open. The Seattle TD. The big play in Detroit. Putting him in the slot would definitely be a short cut. I believe you are spot on about that. I generally think most receivers would be better in slot conditions. The Jags are even trying to get BTJ a lot more slot reps this year. But putting Josh Allen in a simpler offensive system in 2018 would have been a short cut too. That's what I wanted. I don't know that he could have evolved into quite the same quality of player without the challenge of mastering the EP system though. I guess I would take my chances with keeping Coleman outside and challenging him. Because I feel the ceiling is higher than you. Josh Allen is probably going to continue to throw a top 5 amount of deep balls and they need to stop getting bottom 5 results from those throws.
  18. The big question is what happens to "First Thing First " if Bills win. Do they just run Nascar replay races
  19. Here are the rules the Dems want us to follow: - let in as many illegals as possible, even pay to fly them in - give them court dates 3-4 years in the future that they won't show to - try and track them down but you can't ask if they are legal because that's racist - if they are arrested in a sanctuary city then release them as fast as possible so ICE can't get them - allow them to wait years for the legal process to take place - in the meantime they are having kids that are automatically citizens by birth right - wait for Dems to get power and grant all of them citizenship anyhow Is that right? So it's rigged and they want us to play by the rules? How about if you came here illegally then you get deported? Sounds fair to me
  20. Before that,he was the host of the early morning show on NFLR from 6-8am, then with Bob Papa on the morning drive from 8-11am, until he ticked off someone on the company and was abruptly gone. I used to call into him regularly and was always fun to talk to about Bills stuff or NFL topics. He has lost a ton of weight. It’s smart as 300+ lbs. is not good for someone’s health in the long run. By the way, most of these guys stopped using steroids post college, and converted to GHB as it clears the system faster. I only know this when I was competing they would urine, lie detector, and for the nationals hair test you. They don’t do lie detector anymore. That’s why the NFL Players Union fought hair testing for so long.
  21. Yeah, that’s probably true. As someone who is firmly on Cook’s side (not for $15 mil but he earned an extension), RBs just get destroyed bu football. Hard to shake Marcus Lattimore. Bit you’re right, it would never work. I agree. He looks bad and definitely overvalued how valuable he was. I will say in a weird way if he plays well at UCLA (school I wish I went to), it might be better for his nfl future over Tennessee and their system.
  22. System and DT because we have high Caliber guys playing out of position because McD is playing his own game while everyone else plays chess.....
  23. And what job is that? I thought he was supposed to be looking at laws and streamlining processes. I have done this kind of work (streamlining processes) and even for the government. We never got access to classified systems without the proper security clearances. Does he have those? Being a past or present drug user usually nixes that. If he needs to look at the system to see how it works he could look at anonymized test servers. You don't access to these systems to review laws to find places to save money. I'm all for the government saving money but him and his underlings having access to classified treasury systems doesn't sound right.
  24. I already said he was shot. I laid of the width and breadth of the vast conspiracy you’re suggesting earlier sooo… Do you know Butler county? It’s a swing county outside Pittsburgh. It would be one of the very important “litmus” counties in a close race. But, with lots of rabid MAGA supporters. Maybe that’s why they picked it. Or, maybe they were part of the vast conspiracy to live stream Trump’s head exploding. Thanks…I’d like something summarizing his career rulings…you got that? Like the bigger picture…
