George Pickens wants us
 

That's completely an unexpected event

No thanks.

lol with Chris Jones we might shut them out

I was pushing hard for Pickens and we took...Skyy Moore. Whatever water under the bridge. Veach freaking hit Rashee Rice and Xavier Worthy outta the park!

Million dollar talent, ten cent head.

At least they got 2 rings in a row (maybe 3 in a row) despite the problems with Skyy. Silver lining to a bust pick, lol

Sky Mooreon is a 1.6 million dollar talent....

I think Pickens is better.

Dude trying to ruin our guys moment

This ain't about you buddy

**** Pickens, he's a cancer to any team in the bigger scheme... We dodged a bullet not drafting that ****stain...

Am I the only one who finds that stupid tweet beyond comprehension?

What is wrong with what Pickens did there? He congratulated his opponents?

You saw it today. His game is basically running deep routes and making contested catches. He's elite at it for sure though. I just don't see Andy Reid going for something like that though.

He's a top 10 WR in football, I imagine we'd be able to make use of that.

Same moron tweeted this.

We were going to draft him till the Cook pick and trade back...and the dog shit run on receivers that left us with Skyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy.

Seemed pretty scripted and bitchy to wait until they were in the middle of their Netflix interview to come over and do that. I don’t view this as his being a good sport in the slightest.

Yep, it's all about him...

Haha how? That game was so one sided on officiating. We literally got 1 beneficial call, they got several. They also got away with holding offensively and defensively the entire game without a flag for it.

Worthy must've shot him with his imaginary pistol

The catch that wasn't clouded all further reasoning

He seems like a total moron.

I think you're actually giving him and his intelligence too much credit. Dude's a dope, nothing more. And dopes do dopey things like walk right into the middle of an interview due to zero self-awareness.

Hicks giving him the double thumbs down was fantastic, unsportsmanlike penalty be damned.

That's how I saw it also.

Four playoff bound teams playing on short rest two weeks in a row while the Bills laughed from their couches and ate turkey annoyed me. Some of the calls annoyed me. Jones being hurt annoyed me. This did not annoy me.

Even if he was grandstanding/attention whoring/whatever, who cares? It was only a couple of seconds. Zero shits given.

Hes a dumbass for sure but it's cool to know guys with his talent want to play here. With that said I wouldn't trade for him total nutjob

His talent would be well used here. I love me some good WRs, as we all know.

Still don’t want him. We don’t need that attitude here

I don’t think he was trolling us. It does feel like he’s trolling his own team

Top 10? Whoa...Ill give him top 25.

I get what you're saying... but after today's results, there isn't a Bills fan alive laughing at this point...

Oh, absolutely. NOW. But nobody's going to convince me that brutal year end gauntlet that we and those other three teams went through while the Bills had (a) a late season bye (b) no short rest games in December and (c) a regular season that wraps up with Pats/Jets/Pats wasn't a deliberate attempt by the league to giftwrap HFA for them. Powering through it and shitting all over their nefarious plans was absolutely glorious.

Pretty shitty if him to decide the time to shake hands with Mahomes and Kelce was when they were on camera getting their player of the game awards.

You might want to watch him a bit more often then. He does things only a handful of guys in this league can do.

My God, do we really think Travis Kelce and Patrick ****ing Mahomes give two shits about their shitty Netflix interview, or their shitty coats, or their shitty red velvet cakes?

Those two have been interviewed so many times and earned so many post game accolades; no way they gave a single shit about this one. The damn interviewer didn’t even seem to give a shit about any of it. She was struggling to get through her lines.

This all day. The only caveat I can offer is that the Jets were supposedly to be a good team this year.

Well, when the 2024 schedule was made they were coming off a 7-10 season, and I somehow doubt that I'm the only person on earth who knew that washed up douche Rodgers wouldn't lead them anywhere except down the drain.

It really was glorious. That's the best part of the whole thing. League did everything they could do, and we just kept chugging along, injuries and all. I do hope the Bills fans were smiling this morning, enjoying their turkey, because they almost all certainly have indigestion now. Too bad you ****ing crybabies!

This wasn't quite as bad as the shit they pulled in the wake of the Hamlin injury, but close, mainly because it was sneakier. I haven't heard any of the national talkingsportsheads even mention it. Not even Nick.

I really don't understand it, though. Why would the league want to steer the AFCCG to a frozen ****ing shithole that is as likely as not to be buried under six feet of snow in blizzard conditions on game day? Why would anybody not associated with the Bills want that? Sure, they're a New York team, but they're about as far from New York City as you can be and still be in the same state. Maybe Chiefs fatigue is that real of a thing.

Good points. And sneaky is the perfect word for how this scenario went down. Three VERY late season games being played in ten days, with two of the teams making the playoffs last year is pretty ****ing ridiculous.

But man, with as awful as the Giants and Jets have been over the past decade, I'm pretty sure even NYC has adopted those table jumping homos at this point. And your last point is I think a lot of it. And it's infiltrated the media over the past two years, even though they all know down deep the team to beat is the Chiefs, but they gotta blah, blah just to make the attempt at "being fair", when really all they're doing is bending over backwards with mental gymnastics to unfairly diminish the enormous accomplishments of the Chiefs.

We see opposing players interrupt those on the field interviews to say good game to people being interviewed.

No one thinks Mahomes and Kelce cared about what Pickens did.

The question is one about HIS intent.

My wife's family is from Syracuse, a couple of hours from Buffalo. I've been there a few times over the years. Outside of Rochester it's the nearest major city in the state. Granted, the last time I was there was the year before Allen was drafted, but still, it wasn't all that long ago. Anyway, nobody that I encountered gave a shit about the Bills. At all. I saw nobody wearing Bills gear, and nobody I asked had any interest in them. All they cared about was their college team. I assume it's a bit different now, but can it really be that different? This is a small market team that has never enjoyed any real success, unless you count a couple of spurts of high profile leg pissing separated by several decades as success.

Post #33 is the one that spurred my comment. That was the implication from my perception.

What do you think his intent was?

I've seen a lot of the Steelers the last couple of years. He is a talent for sure. Not taking age into factor...if I am playing a must win game tomorrow...I can very easily come up with 10 better receivers. Jefferson, Chase, Tyreek, Ceedee, Puka, Nico Collins, Davante, Amon-Ra, AJ Brown, Mike Evans...if you wana debate him with that next wave of receivers be my guest but dude isn't close to top 10.

I don’t think there’s much on his part that was about sportsmanship or wanting to make some positive impression on the two of them because he wants to be a Chief. I think he was just trying to intrude on their moment and be in the middle of something - the spotlight - that had nothing to do with himself.

I don’t know why people would watch how he carried himself in that game and give him the benefit of the doubt. He felt like he was on the verge of imploding for a large portion of that second half.

Yeah, New York is kinda weird. I lived in NYC for 15 years, left a few years ago after we won our first Super Bowl against the Niners. Didn't spend a ton of time upstate, or anywhere near Buffalo. Worked in Buffalo for a few weeks doing some stunt work on TMNT 2, along with up near Lake Placid for the Dannemora shoot, but that's about it, so my take on anywhere outside of NYC is pretty limited.

But I'd be pretty confident saying at that time, you'd be more likely to find Patriots, Eagles, Cowboys or Steelers fans in NYC than you would Bills fans, though I did know a couple. It makes sense. Buffalo is closer to Detroit, Cleveland and Pittsburgh than it is to NYC, and culturally they couldn't be more different. And as far as college goes, barely anyone in NYC gives two squirts of piss about college sports. I was on my own island in that regard. Though I did get a few buddies recruited as casual Jayhawk fans, so that was fun.

I don't blame Pickens, I would be pissed too about being passed up by the Chiefs and stuck in steeler land with their castoff QB's.

We would murder that team at Arrowhead. Desperately hoping to see them again. Was TJ Watt even on the field?

That's all great, but did you work on the Vanilla Ice ninja rap scene?

Honesty, I don't see it.

The guy I assumed Veach wanted was Tyquan Thornton.


Once he went to the Patriots we traded down.

This. He was just showing respect for 2 Hall of fame players. Classy move.

I’ve watched a good bit of their games since he entered the league and that is just the George Pickens experience. He’s good for one or two absurd catches a game where you wonder how he made the grab or got his feet down. He’s also good for a handful mini-meltdowns when something doesn’t go right.

I’m not even giving the guy the benefit of the doubt. I just didn’t see anything to suggest that he has acting out on some nefarious plot.

He dapped them up then walked away. Kelce even yelled something at him as he walked away. Clearly unbothered.

He was lying down on bench while his brother gave him a 3 hour long on-air hand job.

I get that JJ was going to hype him up, but it quickly became a little ridiculous. His confusion as to why he couldn't get past Jawaan Taylor was pretty amusing, though.

Yeah, I see it all as respect. Knowing Pickens, i just wonder if it had “come get me” vibes. And I can’t remember how long this was after the game but kinda feel like at that point he should have been with his teammates

Whatever the reason, no thanks.

Just no chance they bring in a guy like that. He's having meltdown after meltdown.

Andy was asked a few years back if he’d ever bring desean when we really needed wr help. He made a rare blunt statement that he basically doesn’t want anyone who doesn’t fit in the locker room. People forget how very badly TO and desean burned him in Philly and you can tell Andy avoids these guys when he can. We’ve brought some of these guys in but only when we have an easy way to cut them

I thought it was a pretty cool move. Showed some respect and possibly a little (come get me).

Pickens is one of the best deep ball guys in the league. Yeah, Id take that.

Folks turning their nose up at Pickens are funny. Here is a list of guys we've drafted, signed or traded for.

Clark
Hunt
Toney
Rice
Gay Jr
Omenihu
Nelson
Bell
Peters
Tyreek
Kelce

And the list goes on. Kelce was suspended In college, had several bone headed incidents in his first three years in the league and has publicly pushed EB and Andy Reid on the sidelines.

Clark, Omenihu and Hill had domestic abuse cases. Gay got suspended for beating up his QB in college. Bell and Nelson had big fall outs with other teams etc etc. And ya'll think Pickens is a problem? I'd sign him with no hesitation because the guy is very good. Fullstop.

Did you work with a guy named Herdon on TMNT2?
