Buffalo716 Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 1 hour ago, Hapless Bills Fan said: Your points are fully valid, but I think the concept it reinforces is that even picking a highly talented #1 overall pick QB does not guarantee team success It's just one part of a picture that includes keeping the guy clean and upright and fielding a defense. Perhaps Luck would not have retired if he weren't so freakin' beat up. Completely agree. Luck was surrounded by ineptitude for years, and he paid the price physically Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously the #1 pick is a great consolation prize and I was stoked to get it, but at the end of the day I want that shot at a championship. In the NBA I’d definitely take the #1 pick, but the other three sports (Baseball, Hockey, and Football) are definitely random enough to give any playoff team a fighting chance at a title. What are your thoughts? Would you rather win a game or series and make the playoffs or lose that game or series and end up with the #1 pick? I ask because I respect Buffalo sports fans.

The media here could care less about hockey. When it comes to sports in the NY Metro area its all about the Giants, Jets, Yankees, Mets, and Knicks. You live it. You should know for sure. 8 hours ago, Greg S said: I'm an Islander fan and you can enjoy the #1 pick. I will enjoy Isles-Caps playoffs. One more day until they drop the puck.

Maybe? kaapo kakko - kinda rolls off the tongue. He did well as a 3rd liner. Gotta believe Lafreniere jumps right in day one. Points? hmmm....do they team him with opposite Panarin on the 2nd line?

Buchnevich is pretty solid on the line with panarin and zibanejed. Or kakko plays up top with them and buchnevich maybe with the other 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m crazy for thinking this team would be better with Watson or Mahomes. Silly me. Where have you been all my life?! I've been doing all the heavy lifting at this board since the day we drafted Allen pointing out his utter mediocrity. I've taken a beating around here from all the "experts" who love "their guy." I guess I'm not alone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll bump the hurricane thread, the first image I put in there is constantly updated. As it goes it looks more like me than you but we are days away. Hope it's neither and none.

Ignoring that he started his career with three straight 11-win seasons on a team that had the number one pick right before he got there because they were so bad And finished his career with a playoff appearance The dude went four out of six years. and is tied with Drew Brees for most passing touchdowns per game in NFL history 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
