Star


Harbingers

Recommended Posts

It's funny because a handful of people here, like myself, said Star should have been kept. If you watch the film you'd see the opposing teams doubling and sometimes tripling him... That showed who they feared most. Yea KK got the stats, but he is just an average DT, without star eating all those blocks, he isn't poo.  What a bad decision and waste if money.

Star helped stuff one run and suddenly he's the not the guy Bills fans have been calling a bust all year

Ask any Bills fan, they regret signing him to that deal;  the Bills were 19th in stopping the run this year (but best at defending the pass)

Your logo is not a money manager. It buys defaulted debt and enforces it, he didn’t make money being smart, He made money being a loan shark.

If it It were that simple and straightforward, other people would have made 11 billion dollars from nothing as loan sharks yet somehow they didn’t. No matter what you say to try to discount the achievement, the guy was born into a middle class family and accumulated an 11 billion dollar fortune. The number of people who have done that is a short one indeed. There are literally hundreds if not thousands of firms that buy debt and attempt to enforce it. How many came you name with comparable success to Appaloosa?

That kind of smart may or may not translate into a successful football franchise, but to claim it does not require high intelligence is simply not a crediblestatement, sorry.

I’m not going to get into politics up here. But in short catch up on a little John Oliver. 

But that’s how he made 11 billion. It wasn’t money managing. It was loan sharking, investing the debt and reaping the reward. Then sharking the companies that forfeited. 

Any who let’s keep this to football, if you want to talk further I’ll see you down in the TB.

Word is no. I didn’t either but apparently lots of Bills fans less than thrilled about his play before today.

David Gettleman made that decision, not Hurney. 

He balled out vs the run.

DG was the GM in 2018?

That isn’t politics and I enjoy Oliver, but there is still a simple fact that remains: it is not a credible statement to assert that anyone who amassed such a fortune legally without starting from anywhere of note isn’t highly intelligent.

    • Not many are talking about this player. He played well as a rookie last year. If he refines his blocking, continues studying film, and keeps working hard, I can see him being the next Greg Olsen. I’m expecting 55 catches, 700 yards, 4 TDs this season.  
    • I'm not a Bryce hater and I would 100% move on.  Especially looking at how the upcoming qb draft looks on paper.  Hopefully he continues to improve but if in 3 seasons you're still chasing average season numbers then he's not going to be the guy.  You've just got to keep taking swings until you hit.  Average qbs without any elite physical traits cant get it done anymore.  So this year Hopefully he continues to develop and is above average statistically.
    • Meltdowns???? He was pulled by Canales because he wasn't executing the game plan after 2 games into the season so he could watch Dalton execute the offense and show Bryce the windows available in the NFL, how to push the ball down the field and how to step up and move around when blitzed. When Young came back 5 games later he clearly watched and improved. Enough he was named the future starter. He doesn't have a history of  meltdowns nor is there any reason to assume he will have one. From what I have read he is mentally strong and emotional stable. He may have bad games down the road, everyone does. But this is all a learning experience for him and so far he seems to be making progress. I can understand being hesitant on anything Panthers, but Young has surprisingly been able to gain his confidence after a disastrous start. You aren't alone in being cautious but I think he is the future. I thought he was too small and too short to succeed in the NFL. Honestly I was pleasantly surprised last year and am optimistic about the offense for the first time since Wilks and Dalton were decent.
