NFL thread - 2020

Tank squad Jax garners another professional loss. Local hairdressers looking to get in on the Trevor factor already.

Maybe Shad will line up a game at Bramley-Moore someday. My question - can Everton sign this guy after he retires from the NFL?

Zac Taylor needs firing now.

Cincinnati stepped on to the field yesterday with nothing to play for. When you are this far behind everyone else, you HAVE to play your last two or three games with an eye on your draft position and the likely prospects available. We have a franchise QB who was knocked out of the season due to our awful OL, and there's a consensus franchise left tackle (Sewell, Oregon) available who will be highly in demand.

So NOW we start winning??!!

End result? We're now picking 5th, not 3rd. Our idiot owner will now pick a WR or CB in the first round. Another year of getting hammered awaits.

Why would the players care about next seasons draft pick? Half them might not be there

Well them sucker ass pats took that whoopin

I bet Brady noticed that the Pats threw for a grand total of 56 yards tonight

I've been an Evertonian for over 30 years and a Bills fan for 13. I can't quite compute what's happening right now.

I need something to complain about!

In almost any other season Josh Allen would be a prime MVP contender. But as it is Mahomes and Rodgers are battling it out - deservedly tbf. But wow - Allen's progression has been incredible, and Diggs has to be one of the best FA signings I've seen

Diggs wasn't a free agent, Bills gave up a first round pick for him

Oh my. I knew that - just completely forgot in my excitement!
I meant to say one of the best trades! A rare one which works out brilliantly for both sides too - with Vikings using the pick from us to get Jefferson

I agree many of the players won't care. The head coach should though.

Worked well for both of us, we have cap space issues got a few draft picks and did well getting Jefferson.

You got Diggs who wanted out and he has formed a brilliant partnership with Allen.

It's not him on the field

Good to see you in the thread. 13 years ago is an odd time to become a fan because they in the midst of on of their worst 20 year runs.

Enjoy it. You deserve it

Yep. I'd watched a few Superbowls and decided I wanted to follow a team. I got sky sports and one of the first non-superbowl games I got to watch was an MNF game - Cowboys @ Bills.

I knew I didn't want to support the cowboys (America's team and all that) but I became immediately intrigued by the Bills. Raucous, passionate fans, aging stadium, blue jerseys, and a painful last second defeat to a big team. (25-24 in that game). It felt just like Everton and like some masochistic idiot I was hooked, even though I knew I was potentially signing up for years of pain.

In 2008 I visited Manhattan and went to a Bills bar there to watch a 10-0 home defeat in high winds against the 49ers, with the bills missing several field goals. I had an amazing time and the fans I met we're genuinely boss - they took me under their wing and I just felt at home.

It's been a long, painful road but the pay off now of seeing them finally topple the Patriots now is amazing.

Yep I was at that MNF game vs the Cowboys. First home Monday night game in 13 years, lost but was absolutely one of the best environments I've seen a game in.

Ryan Fitzpatrick on the reserve/Covid list for the game against The Bills .We’re going to need all the other results to go our way to make the playoffs.
