Once he establishes himself as a top-10 QB, then Whatever. His brand can be about "I'm a top-10 stud QB who wins playoff games AND throws fans through tables AND tries to throw the football out of the stadium" then if he likes. Right now it's about "I'm not a top-10 QB contending for a championship, so I'll build my brand where I can - with stunts" Yup, it's officially Bills offseason 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chongli Posted January 30, 2020 Share Posted January 30, 2020 Does anyone else find this going through tables stuff by Bills fans juvenile? This is why we need a new downtown stadium to end this ridiculous habit and other similar aspects of tailgating.

Are you auditioning for the OK BOOMER poster boy with this? Looking at the video, (1) Josh is having fun, so can we all just relax? (2) The guy jumped into the table with Josh's hands barely touching him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You got them through parasite-ing off of the Great Generation's successes while selfishly trashing the future for subsequent generations, not because yall were somehow smarter or better like you all think. Everyone sees through it but the Boomers who love the smell of their own farts. But I digress from the thread's real topic, so my apologies. We all look forward to that die off, tho. ? Wow. I'm a millennial, but this is some seriously ignorant trash spewing right here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not true. Some of the longest players on tour have shorter back swings. Think JB Holmes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leverage and physics. Just because JB Holmes has a short backswing and can hit the ball long, so what, if he had a full swing under control he proabaly could hit it longer.

You realize that every single piece of modern legislation for air quality, environmental protection, corporate regulation, gender and ethnic equality, etc. has come from the Baby Boomer generation or before, right? Millennials have literally done nothing to make the world a better place, because they aren't in power yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oooooh, that first viewpoint won't be popular here (I am not a fan of the "Bills Mafia" = "Table breaking" thing myself) Lamar Jackson is a top-10 QB this year by ton of metrics. Completion %? 9th TD thrown? 1st Passer rating? 3rd ANY/A? 4th. About the only stat where Jackson isn't top-10 is passing yards, and one can argue that as the key player and leading rusher on this year's #1 scoring offense, he made up for that. Pretty tough argument to make that Jackson is not a top-10 QB. Lamar is 'Dope' and his clothing line is popular because all the young bucks want that swag to rub off. Baker Mayfield is a case in point on the perils of building your brand before you've branded yourself with your play. Instead of focusing on improving his footwork and other aspects of his game last off-season, he was busy becoming Mr Advertisement. Right now his Progressive insurance commercials are on the verge of being laughable because instead of the duality portraying this swag-y guy who "protects his house" by being a tough competitor (but also by caring for plumbing and lawns), we've got this emerging Colombo-clone doofus who looks like he aged in Dog Years since the draft. He's in danger of the brand driving his narrative instead of his narrative of successful play driving his brand. Hopefully Josh takes a big step this off season and levels up his play, then it won't matter anyway. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Celebrating an aspect of Buffalo fandom that's a bit reckless and does not need to be encouraged And as for "would Mahomes do this?" um he's preparing for a Superbowl at the moment. That should be the goal. Please say It's Not So! You got every single react. Congratulations Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never commented on Josh in any fashion, if you where observant you would know that, you assumed, and you where wrong. I commented on the cheap shot you threw out that had nothing to do with generational differences, only personal preference as to ones behavior. You’re still kinda cute with your endless naive perspective, oh and did you vote in the last round of local or national elections??? Or ever, did any of your cohort vote? How much consumer goods did you spend money on only to put most of it in a trash can with in a year ???? Ask yourself, do you walk the walk, it’s darn unlikely you do.

But you took it real serious because youre easily offended. Just move on "gramps", none of us really hate you. We got better stuff to worry about. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
