lol, the Bills tried to trade up to draft Ben Roethlisberger but no one was willing to trade down, so they took Losman instead and acted like he was the guy they wanted all along. e: Which was even funnier considering they took Losman with their second first round pick that year, down in the 20s, after taking legendary wide receiver Lee Evans at 13. The 2004 draft was loving stacked and not just the quarterbacks. Larry Fitzgerald was in that draft, and DeAngelo Hall and Jonathan Vilma were real good players for a while too, and Sean Taylor looked pretty awesome before he up and died. Even the busts like Gallery and Winslow were considered ultramegaprospects at the time. And then there's the Jaguars, who the Bills offered #13 and #22 to move up to #9 and snipe Roethlisberger from the Steelers, but no, the Jaguars told them to pound sand so they could draft, uh... (checks notes)... Reggie Williams. Eric the Mauve fucked around with this message at 21:19 on Jan 29, 2020 |

Somewhere out there is a universe where Sean Taylor is wrapping up his Hall of Fame career and Ben Roethlisberger died in 2006, and another one where Roethlisberger was drafted by the Bills and they ruined him like they ruin all quarterbacks. Both of these realities are superior to the one we're stuck in.

Funnier still is that Bill Cowher adamantly didn’t want to draft Roethlisberger, fought the GM and owner tooth and nail over it for a month to no avail. If he’d persuaded Rooney to draft a lineman instead the Bills would have gotten him at 13

If you're into butterfly effect stuff, Banner Society (not-EDSBS) has a good piece on the college and even NFL implications of the Ole Miss player doing a dog piss celebration in the Egg Bowl.

I mean in this specific case he's got a point insofar as DePodesta hasn't the faintest idea what he's doing (football-wise, he's apparently in expert at kissing Haslam's rear end) and is hiding behind ~The Data~ But to blame 'Analytics' for DePodesta's incompetence is exactly as fair and valid as blaming 'Old School Football' for Gettleman's

Hey guys Sashi picked a good LB, some rotational de's and Myles Garrett! The data also says he would've 100% picked Baker and Ward to. Obviously the data is above reproach

Data is useful, if you can interpret it correctly. Other times you follow a correlation down a causation hole and you get the Browns.

We should play the game, how many Head Coaches is Jimmy paying right now? So that will be 2 coaches salaries this season, and at least 2 salaries through 2022. What's fun is that Jimmy hasn't paid less than 2 Head Coach salaries at once since he bought the team. Hell in 2014 and 2016 he was paying 3 at once. That's gotta get expensive.

i assume stefanski’s role is to design the offense, alex van pelt will ensure it’s properly executed, and depodesta’s analytics team will be doing most of the playcalling, with stefanski having the option to veto like it’s loving madden it’s not based on anything besides what i’ve observed in dystopic capitalistic “forward-thinking” hierarchies

Just popping into his thread to say, "gently caress Kyle Shanahan!" I hope he never gets close to another Super Bowl again. Not a Niners fan, not a Falcons fan. Just a guy saying, "gently caress Kyle Shanahan!"

There's a name I haven't heard in ages. He was an offensive lineman on the Super Bowl 32 and 33 Broncos squads.
