Never thought of that, very true.

My Bills are number 1 in a lot of power rankings and a lot of people's pick to make the SB. I am very anxious that we have that much hype tbh. Hopefully Josh Allen and company can live up to it. As a Bills fan my whole life, I have been upset many times lol.

My mate's wife is from Buffalo .. played well last season and unlucky in play off .. 

Gets a bit cold and the supporters seem a hardy bunch .

I've upset a few Buffalonians by mentioning thier 4 superbowl losses.

Oh ok cool. I have been to Buffalo several times to watch them play and to the buffalo wing festivals they have up there lol. Yeah I really thought last season was going to be it, but just didn't go our way. Bills fans are as passionate as any in the league and from my experience at least, are more welcoming to opposing teams fans than other fanbases.

 

Lol no worries on that one. Hopefully the 5th time will be the charm!😀

I introduced the JT's to a colleague in America, also a Buffalo fan. Surely there can't be two?

This is a decent listen. May be too much for Colts fans to hear though. Sad to see such a talent leave the game so early.

i reckon trevor lawrence is going to have a hell of year for jaguars. think all the hype on burrow has put a cloud over lawrence but burrow was way more ready for nfl. think lawrence just need that one season in there to get his groove and should have a year coming up.

True enough but I think the Jags will surprise a lot of people this season, they made some good offseason moves.

Yeah, the $84 million deal for Kirk a particular highlight.

The WR market is insane, and nothing suggests insanity than giving Kirk $84m.

 

I'd actually go as far to say that you don't even need an elite WR to be a success. It's a glamour position.

Dolphins docked their 1st round pick in 2023 for tampering (think it was the Flores report about Ross wanting him to meet Brady on his boat). I'll admit I didn't expect anything much to come of it, nevermind being docked a 1st+

 

Edit - has been confirmed it's alleged tampering in connection with Brady and Payton. The tanking allegation was dismissed.

After watching last season unfold, it has to be the Bills for me. Still can’t believe they lost that game, but they will have learned a hard lesson from it and will also be even stronger this season. Hope I’m wrong about this and also wrong that Matthew Ice is not the guy to take the Colts back to the Super Bowl

I couldn't tell you who, but it'll come from the AFC I reckon. By far the stronger of the conferences.

I did think it was fake at first, but as you say, it’s AB so therefore easily believable.

I hope every team's fans that he and the Browns play against from week 12 give him the same treatment as he got from the Jags fans in last week's preseason game.

 

Chanted "she said no" at him in the safe for work chant, and "you sick f***" at him in the not so safe for work version.

What kind of message does that send out to all the youngsters following the game and idolising these lowlifes. Really depressing to see how this has unfolded.

We have an inactive team owner in a long running Kickback redraft fantasy league. We were due to begin drafting yesterday but have delayed until today/tomorrow to either give the owner a chance to respond or for the owner to be replaced.

 

If anyone is interested in taking part, let me know.

Dear Dan, do something good for once for Washington. Go get Russell Wilson. Thanks The King of Scots.

Any other redraft leagues on the go? Wouldn't mind adding another this year.
