how bout this indictment for the seahawks o-line ... wow
That would have been a great play to unveil in a playoff game to catch a team off-guard.
Don't watch the Tyler Lockett injury replay - Trust me.
see RWil gave all seahawks staff (including office) first class round trip Alaska Airlines tickets to anywhere around the world ????
how do you top that next year lol

Dash, I think the Bills have the Oilers' number with regards to the "biggest joke of a franchise" tag after that fiasco press conference yesterday (and, you know, the whole 17 year playoff drought and whatnot).
Pegula might not be cut out for the sports business. The Bills seemed in better shape when Donald Trump wanted to buy the team and the Sabres are on pace for 5 fewer points this season than they had last, which I believe is the opposite of what's supposed to be happening at this stage of their rebuild.
He has owned the Bills for 3 years and the Sabres for 6 years. That's 9 seasons that neither of his teams have made the playoffs (unless the Sabres tear it the fuck up in the second half). He also hired first-timers as GM's of both teams who went on to hire (I think? Who knows now lol) bad re-treads as coaches of said teams.That was Oileresque yesterday with the Bills, no doubt. The only thing missing would have been to learn that Rex Ryan was fired via Skype©. That said, I think Pegula is still a good owner, but it sounds like I knew about as much going on as the Bills GM did over the last few days.

That's a pretty, pretty low scoring percentage thus far.
Meh. The current crop of AFC playoff QB's consists of names like Brock Osweiler, Ryan Tannehill (Injured but played most of the season) and Alex Smith. Even pretending the 14 years before he bought the team didn't happen, they couldn't find a guy who can at the very least measure up to those guys?Well, just like in the CFL, you need a good QB if you want to make the playoffs and I don't think anymore can say that the Bills have had anybody in that position (and yes, I'm including Ryan Fitzpatrick). As for the Sabres, they need to find a reliable goalie for starters. I think they have a good group of forwards, but they could also stand to improve the defense corps as well.

The thing with the Sabres is they've been shit for 6 years and they should have drafted/traded for those pieces by now. They gave up great capital to get Lehner. They actually subtracted from their defence by trading Myers for Idiot Supreme and whatever Zach Bogosian's turned into.
It's all just really, really bad down there.
TBH, it's probably Tyrod lol. I think they could've made the playoffs this year if a) he had a healthy Watkins (has Watkins ever been healthy yet?) or anyone else who could catch the ball and/or b) if their defence wasn't a tire fire. I wonder at what point this year Pegula went into the Ryan Bros. RV and screamed "Aren't you two supposed to be defensive specialists?!". Doubt it took very long.Who was the last QB that was any good for the Bills? Do we have to go all the way back to Doug Flutie (and no, Rob Johnson is not the answer). I agree, the people in charge down there have to take a good long look at things because it just isn't working.
Do they though? They have some guys at the NHL level making a contribution (Eichel, Reinhart, Risto) and they grabbed younger Nylander at the draft this year but beyond that can you name a Sabres prospect that stands out?I think the only positive with the Sabres is that they do have some good prospects in their development system, I guess the question is how much longer do you ask the fans to be patient?
