They won a Super Bowl a few years ago and got to watch Hall of Fame talent the last decade. I’ll give them something to touch if they are upset.

Utica, you’re right the Bucs have won 2 SB’s.  That doesn’t mean losing say a Josh Allen type of guy like Evans who has been great for over 9 years is not tragic.  Just like losing for the season Dion Dawkins who is equally special.

 

The bad thing for me is Baker has fought so long to be on top, and he’s finally there, but now loses his top four weapons.  We’d be going nuts if it were the Bills.

Sammy Watkins over:

 

Khalil Mack

Mike Evans

Odell Beckham Jr

Aaron Donald

Davante Adams

 

(and for what it's worth, we picked Cyrus Kouandjio over Davante Adams too)

Oof. 

 

Allen to Evans. It's nice to imagine. Bills would be unstoppable. Look at what he did with Winston. 

 

Bills go into KC with a DL consisting of Aaron Donald. That right there would be a complete game changer. 

 

I understand the draft can be a crapshoot. But boy I feel sad now.

I agree it's sad what happened to Evans. I do feel for Mayfield because he is doing everything possible to win with all the injuries. 

 

If they can get fully healthy for the postseason, watch out. They are a team fully capable of winning a SB imo.

No arguing about it...they do. Lol

I don't.

 

They have won two SB's in twenty three years. Have had great QB play for six plus years now. Are a shoe in to win the division every year. They have seen more success than half the league has. 

And so have the Bills.  Is it so hard for you guys to have compassion for another good team that s not the Bills?  I’m frustrated with our two losses as well, and even more frustrated when we lost this four SB’s.  I’ve spent the first half of my life in Buffalo, and the second half here.  We’re not talking about the Dolphins, Cowboys,  or Patriots.

Dang. I feel ya though. I have a herniated back. Causes sciatic pain and half my foot is numb daily. I'll need that repaired at some point but not doing back surgery anytime soon. Freaks me out.
 For me it was mcl tear and water cysts. went the first time and they didn't fully repair it. I found that out when I had to go for a second surgery and the surgeon told me award's that the first dude didn't do his job. Comforting. 

i have a ruptured L5-S1 (disc space is 7mm) with weakness in my right foot causing lack of dorsiflexion, L4-L5 (10mm). the bulge at l5-s1 is 4 years now iwth positive feedback from nerve conduction study and going to get a microdiscectomy in the next few months. i have a few other bulges, but the L5-S1 has caused a lot of problems but i keep pushing on running a 5k a day and lifting/working out 90 min a day pretty intensely.

 

i had no benefit from epidurals to the back. lidocaine injections to diagnose how severe the pain was for the hips and back were amazing, i felt 16 again. i highly recommend hyaluronic acid for the knees and PRP for the hips.

 

in hte last year science has found new stem cells which help repair the discs so that is something i look forward to finding available in 10-15 years when i'll be pushing 60.

Thanks 89.  I’ve met Evans a really nice guy.  I’ve never heard a bad word about him ever since he’s been here.  He’s not the typical arrogant SOB weve come to expect from WR’s.

What do you mean. Are you saying the Bills aren't as successful historically as them?

Yeah his reputation is that he's a pos. At least according to opponents. But every interview and so forth shos he's a good guy.

Breaking your collarbone and getting concussed at the same time.    Talk about a crappy day at the office.  

 

Hard to believe we could have taken Mike Evans instead of Sammy Watkins.   And of course Khalil Mack, Aaron Donald etc.  That was a very talented class.

Sounds like we're about the same age. I'll have to looking to the disc repair. I'm the same L5-S1, but I'm in enough pain and so comfort that it makes me nervous to do too much. I tried working out again and it was going good until summer ended and work started back up. You'll have to message me. I could have like 1000 questions for you lol

Sad that the Evans 1,000 yard season streak will end this way.

One of my favorite non Bills in the NFL.  Between him and Baker, the Bucs are a must watch IMO

[billsfan714]

Hopefully he's back for the playoffs.

My knee issues are from BMX biking. Wiping out on a jump specifically. Genetics and pulling weeds (straw the broke the camels..... you know) for my back.
