45.98 compared to 48.2 for Larry. Not sure that's a big enough gulf to worry about
- jcragcrumple


The fact that he's MUCH worse defensively is the far bigger issue.

Or maybe it is, since we've won only about 30% of our games since Larry has been here.

It's not rocket science - if we have the puck more than we don't, we're probably going to win more games.

Id rather have Soderberg but if theyre in the market for a $1m center then you're talking about someone like Wennberg or Ennis. For that price there will be warts

Go Bills. I stand by my statement of Allen a top 3 QB in league if your starting a team.

Really? The following are young and in the running, before you get to "middle aged" guys
Lamar Jackson
Kyler Murray
Deshaun Watson
Patrick Mahomes

I appreciate the love for Josh, just might be a tad high.

Is Wennberg a player that could help if he get's bought out by Columbus.
- Buff36

Top 4 predicted contracts for Granlund are below:

20% - 7 years @ $6.5M per
19% - 4 years @ $5.8M per
18% - 5 years @ $6.2M per
16% - 3 years @ $5M per

I wouldn't do any of the above.

Would you do 1 or 2 @ $4.5 per?
Hopefully he could put up 50 -55 pts
Having Staal on a cheap deal allows some flexibility short-term

Well, you have amitted to be a homer, and probably not the exact words you mean.
He has been fun to watch, and his game has improved rather remarkably since he started, no doubt. His 4th Qtr comebacks are becoming legend. And moreso, he leads and motivates others to play their best...which is huge!
But great from the start, nope.
And if he didn't poop the bed earlier in many of those games. The 4th Qtr heroics wouldn't be needed.
Still, I'll take him and enjoy the ride.

- IonSabres



I'm not sure what expectations everyone had of Allen after the draft? I remember you loving baker mayfield.

Allen has played well ( maybe not great) from the. Beginning. Rookie qbs take time to develop.

Enjoy the ride as well.

Bill's flags and fake political signs popping up everywhere.

Diggs/allen for president 🙂

Wow, that's surprising with having a down year and a half. I like the kid, he can dish the puck, but not at those projections. Thanks 39

I got on the Josh Allen train Day 1 hour 2. And he definitely wasn't great at first. But he was exciting. Now he's both exciting and actually good.
- TheSabresTaco


1 hour later than me, but yes

He wasnt great the first day, but super likeable and exciting

Thank you Kym and terri

Disappointing with how many Articles are coming out about the PI call and how it cost the Rams the game, but nothing being said about the horrible Interception call, that probably stalls any comeback right there.

The PI was a marginal call. Homerism is shining thru.
That gave us the game. May have been a penalty, but generally goes uncalled.

Make up for the "interception "

Nice to see the league wanting the Bill's to be good though.

The game would have never been there if they make the right call on the interception.

YOUR “PROCESS” IS BULLSH!T
Worst pick in Bills history
Worse than (frank)ing Maybin over Orakpo
Worse than EJ
I'm so pissed

Rosen might have concussion issues,
but Allen plays like he has one when healthy

Allen f#cking sucks
We are screwed
