Absolutely LOVED Lynch and was sorry to see him go. I think he's been great for the NFL and love that he's still getting endorsements in retirement. 1 1 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

msw2112 Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 Lynch is an NFL legend who played for the Bills, but he's not a Bills legend. Thus, although I like what Lynch has "matured" into, I don't see him being the right guy for this kind of honor. In Seattle, yes, in Buffalo no. That said, I'm most interested in what goes in during the 60 minutes of the game and don't expend too much mental energy on fluff stuff like this. The coaches and players can focus on the Colts and the marketing department can focus on Marshawn Lynch. 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mat68 Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 He is a legend. He didn't draft Spiller and trade himself for a bag of bagels. Bills Mafia started/ coined Beastmode. He will be called that the remainder of his life. I hope he gets a big welcome. Its where it all started. 2 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VaMilBill Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 (edited) Meh. I’d hardly call him a Bill, nor a legend here. He wanted out of Buffalo. his legend status came while playing for the Seahawks. Fred was a better RB than him in Buffalo.

Mat68 Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 Dude Is a fringe Hall of Famer. Started in Buffalo. Got named Beastmode in Buffalo. During that time he was the best player to come through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surprised he even agreed to do it. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s much more a Seahawk than a Bill and will retire with Seattle if he hasn’t already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rc2catch Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 I don’t think his ties to buffalo are worth mentioning. He wasn’t a legend here outside off the field stuff. Almost all fans who aren’t Bills fans don’t even remember he played here a short time 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m for the former It can be as playful as Bills fans want it to be. If there were a lot of Skittles scattered on the ground, and Lynch were to slip and fall on his ass, I would find it all in good humor. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thenorthremembers Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 (edited) Must be running out of legends to bring in. Guy played here less than 3 years. Edited November 16, 2021 by thenorthremembers 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was surprised as well, I thought he would never want to come back but then again nearly a 100% new regime. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
