I've been to a Bills game before. It was after that weasel Modell moved my team.

I thought their fans were cool & friendly. Even went to the Anchor Bar & Grill where chicken wings were invented. Had a great time.
I'll admit that if my Chiefs don't get the job done this season I'd like to see the Bills finally get one...

The four years straight that they came up short I'm sure still doesn't sit well with them...

If I remember correctly their owner and fans stuck up for the Browns at the time. Think wilson might have been one of the only ones who voted against the move?

Browns guys, we’ve got a game at 1 pm. Looks like neither team is playing starters. They got their work in this week with joint practices. What are you guys hearing on Hunt trade talks? Do you think a 3rd or 4th round pick gets it done? I don’t think the Eagles pay him but their number one back is Miles Sanders. He’s a legit talent but can’t stay healthy. He’s already got a soft tissue injury with his hamstring. Would love the Eagles to get in on Hunt but my threshold is a 3rd round pick.

I doubt he goes anywhere, at least before the season but we will see. From rumors a 3rd or a player could do it. I think he is worth more than that though, he can be a legit starter for a lot of teams. I would resign him

Philosophically, I don’t give backs big money. Too many other positions need to be big cap positions before you get to RB. That being said, he’s a guy that I might consider because he’s a 3 down RB that can be a weapon in the pass game and he is solid in protection. The reason he won’t bring more than a 3rd is likely because of the fact that to get more than one season out of him, you have to pay him.

Yeah I would only pay legit 3rd down backs and/or big-time dual threeat guys like Kamara, Cook and CMac. Hunt is still young too and I dont think he would demand a huge contract

Sharing carries with Chubb has kept the contract marginal but I don’t know about “still young”. He will be 28 next season and 30 is the magic number for RBs. Seems like that is when they tend to fall off a Cliff in terms of talent and production.

Everybody sleeping on the Raiders.....

I love it!!!!

Interesting.

Because I didn’t name who I thought those teams were.

You are correct in assuming that I believe the Raiders are the least likely to contend, but your assumption maybe suggests that you agree that they aren’t on that level.

What's funny about the Broncos to me this season are the insane fans around here. The day Wilson arrived in Donkeyville the talk of them winning the S.B. this season started. What da hell is that? They aren't even favored to win the division.

3 out of 4 teams in the AFC west are legit threats to win a Super Bowl.

I believe this is the Bills’ year, but we shall see.

Yep, like tlance said...3 of the 4 are legit Super Bowl threats and I would add that the 4th, would be a threat to win a playoff game or 2.

Agree also that it looks like the Bills year, but it's a long year and all it takes in an injury or 2 to change the playoff picture.

I agree about the 3 outta 4.

Chiefs, Broncos & Chargers all deserve to be in the discussion of reaching the SB. I just thought it was funny that from the moment RW signed the Broncos to the S.B. talk started around here.

The Raiders have talent. And Carr's a good QB. It's just that division is stacked. How crazy would it be if all four make the playoffs?

I don’t think that is possible. Someone going to have a down year and it could be any of the 4.

Too many head to head games for all 4 to get it.

The AFC is stacked altogether. It could be just as likely that only 1 make it out of the West seeing as they all have 6 difficult games.

Not to mention the AFC west also drew the NFC west. Which minus the Seahawks gives ya 3 more difficult games.

People dont put enough stock in the schedule. It helps decides a lot of the playoffs final couple teams

Schedule usually has a great impact on how the wildcard shakes out.

@fightinfunbags if Hurts can't pull it together this season.....you do have a solid guy who can be a game manager in Minshew.....liked it when you picked him up.

He’s limited for sure. There’s a reason why the Eagles didn’t have any takers when they shopped him. But you’re right that he gives them an ability to manage a game. Hurts has to play though. He is still being evaluated. You can’t do that and have a decision come April draft without playing him.
