You did not seriously use the term EASY WIN when referring to the Sabres did you?
- rapperray


He does that because he thinks we can't criticize him for bashing the Sabres if he always says they're going to win even though he clearly doesn't mean it. He's been doing it for the Bills too.

If they were serious about a playoff run, they should have waited until the offseason. I know he only took 20-some percent of snaps, but when he was out there, you had to double team him, even if he just laid down and took a nap after the snap. That freed up other people to make plays. Not knowing when he would be out there also meant you had to call a double team in the middle. They don't have a single other player, linebacker or lineman that is capable of overpowering a blocker on a consistent basis.

Blatant tank moves after an unexpected great start. "We're still in playoff position and our starter, while not great is also not the reason we're losing and is still healthy? Bench him! We'll just leak it that it was the OC's decision and the coach trusted his advisers."

You know, if I was into conspiracies.

And if this organization had tanked in the past...

There is no way Sean McDermott is this dumb to play peterman

If he fails again what do you do go back to Tyler ? I would just put Taylor in until we are eliminated from the playoffs

This is coming from a person that hates Taylor

Larsson has played pretty ok during this recent mess
- homiedclown


Thought Larsson was your best player against CAR on Saturday up until Kane and Jack turned it on for about 10 minutes.

Otherwise it was pretty pathetic for the most part. I've never seen a team so slow.

We have no D -

Top pair tonight is Scandella and Falk -

Jack can play D maybe - put him and ROR back there - might as well.

Moulson and Gorges practice as a fourth pair sometimes. It's not too late to rejuvenate Moulsons career with a position change.

Friday's game has a bit of resale value.

I can't imagine why...

He won't be available by the time we pick, unless we combine picks and move way up. I can't believe the Browns are in love with DeShone Kizer enough to not take another QB.

The Dolphins also ought to take a QB.
And probably the Colts.

Kane isnt behind any other forward on Chicago, he is put out in every offensive situation.

O'Reilly is behind Jack Eichel. They are both centers.

I feel like I am taking crazy pills.

I literally showed you the ONLY other 2nd line center near ROR in ice time and it was Ryan Kelser

They both play a similar role.

You're literally the most stubborn person on here. I respect it

- sbroads24


Kane isn’t being moved off his line regularly to get extra offensive zone time

U can have 2 lines get “offensive zone” time
Come on
You’re trying to nitpick something that’s just obvious

I’ll stop arguing though
I guess we can just agree to disagree
As usual
Hahaha

His height worries me
Not that it can’t be overcome (Russell Wilson, for example)...
but it is a concern

Mayfield?
He’s not going on the 1st most likely bc of his height
2nd, or maybe even 3rd
There’s too many good prospects with “measurables” that’ll go ahead of him

We have Jack, they have Matthews
Neither is going anywhere

Browns could definitely go QB
But Miami likes Tannyhill,
and Indi likes Brissette.
Louis RidRichard was tweeting last week that he thinks Brissett will be a “star”

Shame about Matt, really is, good dude, when Eichel lived with him Jack was an honor scout -

Ron Rolston's best quote:

"He's a hooooocccckkkckey player" growly voice in that first post game presser after the trade when Moulson scored 2.

He is as tall as Drew Brees and Russell Wilson.

And he is the only college QB with NFL skills that has played consistently this year.
