  1. "You disagree with me because you're not a man!"
  2. And what about when you complete a nice pass and Smith shits on you anyway? Or when he randomly calls out people not playing, or that aren't players? Not to mention I wouldn't want to listen to the overwhelming majority of posters on this forum on TV...
  3. I think some of the jumpiness/ happy feet concerns others have said are a bit overdone. I think he definitely had that early but settled down, as you noted... It's understandable his first time playing at his new home stadium would have some nerves.
  4. I like Minshew but his arm strength seems to be a problem. OFC he has been productive without that so we will see... Darnold has the higher ceiling, though, and that's clearly what we are betting on.
  5. Didn't realize he had a clean pocket for 17 passes... OL played better than I thought lol. Those numbers definitely include the one drop, and I think one near interception was out of a clean pocket too.
  6. Wasn't just Slye. A lot of his running commentary was pretty insulting to other players, too. He even had a dig at Curtis Samuel at one point.
  7. Hope his next landing spot is a fresh start and he leaves the yips in Charlotte.
  8. I found the level of disrespect for a lot of guys struggling to make teams rough to listen to. On the other hand, some of his insight was unique and interesting. He can be funny without tearing people down... I'd prefer that route.
  9. Very encouraged. He started antsy, settled down, and showed very promising signs throughout. He'll make mistakes but he had good ball placement most of the time and made some big league throws, especially that last drive. Regardless of this was against 2s, he was solid, which is all we can ask for. But look, the real story is the OL is total garbage and barring some major change we are going to have a lot of trouble because of it.
  10. Darnold has an arm, and he doesn't need to chuck it 30 yards for the difference between he and Teddy to be clear. If his decision making improves, and if the OL can give him a bit more time (lol) he has a shot at redemption.
  11. Darnold throws a much harder ball than Teddy. We aren't seeing anything deep right now, but there's not been a ton of time to do so, but he has the ability to. He does need to settle in and get some mid range stuff going though.
  12. I don't care if they sit the starting skill players but the OL is a disaster and at least some of those dudes need to keep playing, probably with some shuffling of where.
  13. alright guys, all we have to do is play 2nd stringers all season and we may have a winning record
  14. ok, that was a really nice play on Darnold's part to find Arnold
  15. can't really tell much about Darnold because any time we try to run a play that needs more than a second to develop Paradis spins in circles.
  16. he acknowledged the middle was pretty clogged too. I'm not sure empty backfield will meet with success with this offense. we've had success with the quick short routes just like last year, but at some point we will need to hit some deep ones.
  17. this OL is garbage. Darnold will be lucky to survive, what the fug.
  18. I get these are as vanilla play calls as you can get but come the fug on.
  19. For the talent we had, Shula was the most disappointing. Davidson was worse as a coach, albeit with less to work with. Henning... I don't really agree. I think he was kept far too long, but he was a big part of some of our early/mid 2000s successes.
  20. Tbf Bills fans are basically known as some of the nicest NFL fans there are despite a rough exterior. The stuff the Bills Mafia does is really impressive.
  21. Pretty much this. The poo talking northern cities amuses me, as someone that has lived in both NC and the northeast. Edit: not defending Pittsburgh fans btw, lol. Many stadiums are full of shitty fans.
  22. The very fact we moved on from Teddy B Average is strong proof this staff thinks they need a dynamic QB to win. It doesn't mean they think we need Justin Fields, no. I think they just weren't nearly as sold on Fields as many of us were.
