I was just done discussing it with you.  as I had said, keep hoping. just don't go off the ledge if it doesn't happen. they will still have the same chance to win it all, with or without him.   Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo_Stampede Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 (edited) I just read MMQB pumping up Shakir and how the Bills have to rely on these guys. A big move is not happening folks.  Quote That the Bills have been so quiet isn’t, by the way, any indictment of where they are. It’s an endorsement, in fact, of the core they’ve now paid and are invested in. No one more so than Allen, who’ll have to shoulder a heavier load with the team’s financial ledger setting up the way it does and, more often, rely on a guy he’s helping to bring along, like Shakir, rather than the kind he could lean on, and the Bills could afford, in the past. https://www.si.com/nfl/2023/03/27/bills-josh-allen-contract-new-phase-brandon-beane Edited March 27, 2023 by Buffalo_Stampede 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still feel like the Chargers are the team that can beat them. At least prevent them from winning the division. They always seem to play close games against them.  I don't have to imagine. We experience 20 years of Brady/Belichick. I know exactly how they feel. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reed83HOF Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 After listening to Beane's interview, they are laying in the weeds...and not out on Hopkins.  It sounded like he entirely brushed the question on hopkins away and then was like until a player signs or is traded we will be in on it. He only ruled out non-culture fits and non-scheme fits.he had a mini tirade about how only 1 out of 100 calls for trades where they actually happen and a bunch of other stuff.  That's jmo. 54 minutes ago, papazoid said: beane obj comment is directed at arizona.....like we have other options besides dhop.......which unless obj will sign for under $2 mil...aint happening  Iirc, obj won't count against a comp pick because he was a ufa before the league new year. I imagine we were the $4 mil team though lol      Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll watch every game and then come here to complain and threaten. But unless you're not a true blue Bills fan and just a fair weather fan, you won't stop following the team.  I get fans wanting a Super Bowl so bad you can taste it. And yes, it's incredibly frustrating to come so close and not get there. But before Beane got here, we were in purgatory. Laughing stock of the league. It's important to keep that in perspective of where we are now.  Maybe Hopkins will happen. Maybe he won't. But there's still a lot of time left in the Offseason. Who knows what this team will look like in the Season Opener. And if it weren't for a myriad of injuries and unfortunate situations derailing the team last season, who knows what we could have been if those things didn't happen.  Who knows what we could be with the same team if those things don't happen this season. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just like he "broke" that Edwards was going to sign, but only after it was announced he came into town.  Every year, you see tons of Twitter accounts making bold claims based off tea leaves. They do it hoping that if they're the first to say it and it happens, they'll be legitimized and get a million followers.  Even if it does happen, I'd bet the guy still doesn't know anything more than the random fan.

Notice how "the insider" had nothing to say about Taylor Rapp? That's because there were no giveaways or tea leaves to play off of with him.  To add to the ridiculousness of putting faith in random Twitter accounts - Ian Rappaport has said in the past "The Bills are always the mystery team". He, Schefter, and the like don't get leaks from them or break news until it happens.  So what sense does it make that random Twitter people get info when it's a front office shrouded in such secrecy that even the top reporters in the game can't find anything out?
