Buffalo Bills 2020 Thread

I think that was the most miserable sporting event I've ever been to. It's either that or game 6 against the Senators in 2007 when the Presidents Trophy winning Sabres team lost.

Same here. I remember sitting in the parking lot totally exhausted/dejected after the game.

Sabres actually lost that series in 5, on an Alfredsson OT goal.

I think that was the only Sabres game I had ever been to before going to one in Philly this year

That certainly makes more sense given they were the #1 seed and it was at home. Guess my memory was giving them more credit. Never heard complete silence from that amount of people, the entire walk out of the arena and to the parking lots was bizarre.

Someone is excited.

I’m ready for the season to start my friends! Hopefully we can have one! I know that the Bills keep taking money from my account every month, so there is still a chance!

Epenesa in the 2nd! His length and hand technique will be elite imo. I’m loving his potential in our program. He still has a ways to go but in year 2 and 3 he will become a big time player I think.

Moss in the 3rd! (I woulda liked him in the 2nd tbh - he was the guy I wanted the most in this draft because his style fits our needs perfectly! Great tandem w Singletary.

2 big bodied WRs! I wanted at least one WR in the draft, even after Diggs, to push and possibly change WR4-7 on the roster. Hopefully these gentlemen can do that. Great job by Beane to find some WRs with different traits (size) than what our current guys have. And he found them with value. Nothing forced.

A kicker to push Hauschka. He hasn’t been the same since that cheap shot by the Jets. And it cost us in the playoffs. McD lost his trust in him and shied away from giving him opportunities when it counted the most.

Jake Fromm in the QB room now!

And a 7th round corner to fill a need. McD and Beane always find secondary talent late or in UFA territory, this guy will compete for a spot.

Go Bills!

Wait, we signed Bryan Cox's kid? Idk if I've ever hated another NFL player more.

Bills sign free agent defensive end Bryan Cox Jr., son of former Bills' enemy

The Buffalo Bills found a familiar name to fill out another spot on their long defensive line depth chart Wednesday. The Bills signed three-year veteran defensive end Bryan Cox Jr.,

So on Sunday I watched the replay of last season's Bills-Cowboy game. I was struck by the pocket awareness of Allen. He always moved around to pressure by stepping up or to the side while keeping his head downfield. Everyone says it all depends on Allen taking a step forward. To me, what with Diggs coming in and the OL together for a 2nd season, if Allen simply cuts his fumbles in half and hits a deep ball every other game, I'll be happy with the 2019 Josh Allen.

Love it, critical that the Bills start off well cuz the back half of that schedule is brutal

 

[upperdeck]

how hard is that Dec schedule.. SF could be a let down. Pitt who knows. Denver avg. NE might suck and end home vs Miami in Jan.

 

[chugg21]

Flight to Vegas booked.

 

[syrBossHogg]

Flight to Vegas booked.

I booked as well, might as well take advantage now and hope for the best.

 

[syrBossHogg]

Looking at the schedule once more, the Thursday night game is nicely spread out from the Bye week. The Bills have done well managing injuries in the past but that set up in the schedule is helpful to stay healthy.

 

[chugg21]

I booked as well, might as well take advantage now and hope for the best.

That was my thought. Had flights to Cabo for July 4th weekend that imagine I had about a 5% chance of actually happening so swapped them on Southwest for these which hopefully have about a 75% chance of happening.

WHAT SAMMY WATKINS BELIEVES

He knows what everyone saw: a ceramic-boned bust. From broken ribs to a hip tear to a glute, a hamstring, a calf and, of course, the foot, Watkins could've been suplexed into 100 tables over his first three years in the NFL and come away healthier than this. The Bills had mortgaged their future not for Khalil Mack or Aaron Donald or Odell Beckham Jr. back in 2014 but rather for another reason for Buffalonians to curse the sports gods.

But here's what you did not see: a 21-year-old drinking every night. That's no exaggeration. Watkins partied "every night"—yes, "every night," he repeats—turning downtown Buffalo's Chippewa Street into his own personal frat party. Beer, liquor...Watkins didn't discriminate in lighting his $12.8 million signing bonus on fire with friends who followed him north. "Living fast," he calls it, holding up a pretend blunt. Yeah, he smoked plenty too.

He treated his body terribly.

"I would go out and get wasted," he says. "Wasted wasted."

That article was completely bonkers. Lots to process in there...but suffice it to say after reading that it’s no surprise he was a bust in Buffalo.

You wonder if all of those issues are something that our personnel department should have vetted out before paying such a high price to draft him.

Justin Blackmon 2.0 except managed to be somewhat productive.

Imagine actually believing the earth is flat. It's quite possibly the single dumbest "conspiracy" theory that has ever existed.
