Buffalo- The land the economy forgot (and where butter is a vegetable)

Well, it's preseason football week and I am just too busy to write a smack thread so I have posted a link to a thread from the last time we played the sweaty slobs from western New York.  Lets hope for a good look at our rookies and for a clean game with no injuries for both teams.

Having now attended a game in Buffalo a couple of years ago, I will say that it's a GREAT place to tailgate and the fans are generally that blue collar, hard working and drinking type that we wish we had more of here. The stadium is in a quiet neighborhood but that doesn't stop them from having great little bars on both side of the stadium where you get to see things like Andre Reed trying to pick up chicks with his Bills HoF jacket. When they won on that last drive aided by Lukes boneheaded penalty, that stadium went really crazy, so much so that while yeah it sucked to lose like that, it was great to see everyone else there in such a good mood.

Wish I could be up there tomorrow as a matter of fact.

PS Their French Canadian fans are absolutely bonkers.

The secret to "authentic" Buffalo Wings is apparently you have to cook them in a Mailbox oven. They cooked pizzas in a filing cabinet as well.

Ah, post game down time

Why am on my side? Or on the ground? What?

    • Just had his best game? The Panthers did have their best win in terms of quality of opponent.  Reality is, Bryce Young was treated like a backup QB for almost the entire game vs the Rams.   It's yet another example of a long run of oddities come to life for Bryce on  the year.  Almost this weird The Golden Calf of Bristol season weirdness where it clearly is not good QB play but randomness resulting in a random season overall.  Canales frankly called 2 really dumb calls on 4th down and it worked out terrifically.  I mean, credit Bryce for making the plays, sure.   But I don't think 2 wild gambles really erase everything else.  I mean, take out the 4th down oddities and he was at 130 yards on the day (with a lot of YAC). 
    • I mean, did Bryce ever become a prince for more than a game or two at a time?    I am not advocating in any way, shape or form for Sanders as a starter. If he was available for nickels and could compete in camp, I would be fine having him. I don't view him as any sort of savior and he is another guy that has some legit physical limitations and a TON of work to do getting faster and more decisive with his reads. I can't say given sample size he is better than Bryce....yet. But that ain't much in the way of bars to clear. Hence why I am so perplexed by the Kyler arguments here. I mean.....who in the world would even question the fact that he is a better QB than Bryce? And, once again, that doesn't make him good. It makes him better than one of the worst starting QB's in the past 5 or so years.
    • I mean, you probably should've waited after the season is over before "going there," that way we we'd have four more games of comparison and discussion. Don't get me wrong, I occasionally go out on a limb, but Bryce just had his best game and has given people hope (which could realistically be false hope), and Shedeur just doesn't have that many games under his belt (even if he does look promising), one of them being against the Titans. No harm in being patient and letting things play out.  If you noticed, Tepper seems to be taking a wait-and-see attitude, and he didn't mention Bryce in the clip in the other thread. I'm still highly skeptical of Bryce (and glad that Sanders has shown an ounce of success), but the reality is that we have to let things play out. The Sanders train left long ago (if it was even here). But,there are more realistic options if Bryce turns back into a frog.
