Totally engaged in it. I still follow it very closely and more than a lot of people who consider themselves experts......but definitely not the same. Example being the salary cap. I don't bother knowing everyone's cap figures for the next 3 years because I feel the cap is a lot more malleable now. There are just topics that I have come to realize where the juice isn't worth the squeeze. I also don't really care that much about being right all the time. I care about being right at work where my career depends on making good decisions and giving good advice. This is a hobby. The fun is in the journey not in the destination. I think I do get a fair amount right but of course I get some things wrong. I don't shy away from them when I do. 4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many believe the (AZ game I think) when Edwards got his head rocked was the reason for his downfall. Although I believed it was more to it than that myself. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still, it was all downhill from there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GerstAusGosheim Posted June 19, 2023 Share Posted June 19, 2023 I bought a Peterman jersey right before the 5-INT game. But at least I wasn't a Rob Johnson supporter. Now THAT would be really embarrassing. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirAndrew Posted June 19, 2023 Share Posted June 19, 2023 I was wrong about drafting Allen, but it didn’t take long to see his potential. I can’t say I got much wrong during the drought years, because I had zero confidence in this franchise at that point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GottaRun Posted June 19, 2023 Share Posted June 19, 2023 (edited) Got seasons in 2004 and told everyone that I was ahead of the curve and knew the Bills would win the Super bowl within the first 4 years of me owning tickets.

That's funny. I felt the same way when trent came in for that Patriots game. Not my take, but I remember someone in my family was super excited when we got Matt Cassell. Thought he would get us to the playoffs. Talked about him like we just got Tom Brady. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orlando Tim Posted June 20, 2023 Share Posted June 20, 2023 When the Bills signed Hughes and Dareus I was glad we signed Dareus and thought Hughes ripped us off. 10 hours ago, The Frankish Reich said: I still think EJ needed more time and could have been above average. I agree with this, his best 3 games were his first 3. Marrone ruined him completely. He never was gonna be Josh good but could have been an effective pro. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwhit34 Posted June 20, 2023 Share Posted June 20, 2023 The Bills were not going to miss a beat at RB when they traded OJ because they drafted Terry Miller. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreggTX Posted June 20, 2023 Share Posted June 20, 2023 I didn't think Josh was ever going to be great. Clearly I was wrong about him. He still needs to greatly reduce the turnovers and learn to cradle the ball when he runs, but other than that, he checks all the boxes. I hope he can start winning SB's too.

Ethan in Cleveland Posted June 20, 2023 Share Posted June 20, 2023 9 hours ago, First Round Bust said: was disappointed when I heard we drafted Josh Allen as all the analysis and pre-draft pundits had him as erratic, not proven against top competition, etc Same feeling towards last years 3rd round pick (Bernard) and signing Ed Jordan to the big contract despite mediocre stats In McBeane we trust beotches... I did hit a homer when Stevie (WR) was not franchised cuz I said he would have dropped the tag, which got a reply from his agent on twitter... Who is Ed Jordan? 8 hours ago, Buffalo716 said: Another myth Trents best career game was the game back after the concussion He was a limited quarterback got exposed Both could be true. He definitely played well the next week. But from what we now know about concussions maybe playing so quickly is what hurt him in the long run. That said he was never that good and it probably would have taken Bill Walsh and Jerry Rice in their prime to make him succeed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
