Some random thoughts on the #Bills of ‘Things I did not expect’ (Reply to Thread):

Jesse Berman @jesseberman.bsky.social · 13h

At least the weather gods have drummed up a quality visit for him

Jesse Berman @jesseberman.bsky.social · 20h

That era was honestly a golden age of newspaper strips. Calvin and Hobbes, The Far Side, Garfield, with a whole host of really good support like Cathy, Curtis, Family Circus, etc. I remember visiting my grandparents in FL and the Palm Beach Post Sundays were like 15 pages

Jesse Berman @jesseberman.bsky.social · 21h

I gotta disagree. There are other benefits for these guys besides the actual HC hire. Facetime with a different organization, showing off skillsets, meeting new people. People tend to hire hire known quantities and getting an interview allows you to become known. IMO there is more good than downside

If only Mr Bumble had known about simulations in Oliver Twist. His gruel allotment could have been 3x more efficient!

So a frozen sprinkler pipe (it’s cold in MN) broke and spilled into the elevator shafts servicing my office building. So now there is no elevator service for the time being. And did I mention we’re on the 12th floor? Woe to the instructors teaching on our floor.

I wonder when Poona Ford will be brought up. That I can see McD being blamed for. How they couldn’t find a role for him still boggles my mind.

Jesse Berman @jesseberman.bsky.social · 2d

Hey Pat, I’m trying to find your “Bold Prediction” last offseason that Mike Tomlin, Sean McDermott, and John Harbaugh would all be fired

Jesse Berman @jesseberman.bsky.social · 2d

And everyone knows McDermott actually feels this way. It isn’t some BS PR statement that you see right through. I said earlier, this guy remolded the franchise and transformed it from being a 17 year joke. Super Bowl or not, he deserved better and you hope he can get his celebration in the future

Jesse Berman @jesseberman.bsky.social · 2d

But can he do that (eg better roster)? Ignoring the obvious cap space issues, getting rid of any players is only an indictment on his prior poor judgment in signing that player. I’m not sure Beane will so obviously point the finger at himself

Jesse Berman @jesseberman.bsky.social · 2d

Don’t forget though without a new GM, any new HC will not have the flexibility to change the roster (after all Beane doesn’t want to look foolish for his guys). For example a whole new crew might cut their losses with Coleman. With Beane still around, he might insist they give him another chance

Jesse Berman @jesseberman.bsky.social · 2d

What was the complaint about Kincaid? Injuries? Can’t say they were wrong though. Bosa was fairly invisible in the playoffs in regard to pressures and how many guys got the edge on him?

Jesse Berman @jesseberman.bsky.social · 2d

In a perfect world, his time here should be celebrated, but who knows what bad blood this results in. But I look forward to him landing a job in roughly 1 weeks time and having a lot of success.

Jesse Berman @jesseberman.bsky.social · 2d

We will see how the decision plays out, but #McDermott brought a #Bills team out of a 17-year drought, gained the team national respect, scared a lot of opponent’s, and made the last 8 years a hell of a lot of fun. His time here deserved better than a Mon firing.

Jesse Berman @jesseberman.bsky.social · 2d

100% The roster was incredibly weak

Jesse Berman @jesseberman.bsky.social · 2d

Promoting Brady would be the worst move. You need new ideas, new approaches. Not a new person to implement the same plan

Jesse Berman @jesseberman.bsky.social · 2d

I thought Beane should go and not McD. But he’ll be snapped up really fast by a team in need of a reboot/culture change

Jesse Berman @jesseberman.bsky.social · 2d

You forgot the adjective overpaid. And pinning your hopes on 3 SP returning from major surgeries at some undefined point in the season and expecting them to be in form is obviously such a strong hand, why the rush to make any other moves?

Jesse Berman @jesseberman.bsky.social · 3d

This should be held up every time the administration says ICE is only focused on arresting the criminals. A complete and utter lie.

Alright MVP. Time to prove it!

My wife who only sporadically watches #Bills games sees the extra point and goes, “I have so much more confidence in him than Bass”

Broncos recovered three of four fumbles and had another fumble (that the Bills recovered) wiped off by an offsides penalty. Difference in a close game so far.

Jesse Berman @jesseberman.bsky.social · 4d

Hey Bosa now would be a great time to earn your next contract and get some pressures

I repeat… #Bills injuries

Isn’t it Dorian Williams who always plays the spy for QBs? His absence could be felt with Nix running

Bad move for Coleman to get more looks today

Lots of helicopters overhead in St Louis Park, #MN this Saturday morning. And I can guarantee they are not the mosquito spraying ones

Jesse Berman @jesseberman.bsky.social · 6d

My kid was wondering why their HW question was so confusing, so I take a look and it starts with “One pound is equal to 2.2kg, so compare these objects….”

Jesse Berman @jesseberman.bsky.social · 6d

So The NY Times has one, maybe two on ground reporters in an urban area of 2 million people to report on large scale ICE operations covering multiple counties. Yet they can spare reporters to interview people in out state MN that have no actual experience with what’s happening?
