My NFL Preview! 2015!!!

-
Okay, Matt, Jake & Sam...

...here you go.

Beat my head in with the awful predictions that I make here, but know that I have not been wrong about the Bills not making the playoffs in 16 years.

Is this their year?

You have to wait and see!

NFC West: Seattle

Seattle and Arizona are good teams. The other two teams should suck. Seattle wins the division because their quarterback is a good leader.

NFC South: Saints

Wow. Putrid. Someone has to win it though so I'll go with the best QB - New Orleans will survive.

NFC North: Packers

The Vikings will have a full year of Adrian Beatyourson but the Packers are the best team here...because they have a good quarterback.

NFC East: Cowboys

I still think that Dallas is going to make it to the Super Bowl one of these years because while Romo coughs it up once in awhile he's still a pretty good passer. They should win the division, but the Eagles are also going to be interesting because no one can follow what Chip Kelly is doing...he's gonna' confuse the league. Besides, he now has the Christian following, right? The Eagles went from Vick to Tebow...that's a true 'Hail Mary.'

Wild Cards:

Arizona and Philadelphia

So...what do we have in the NFC?

I'm thinking that while the best teams may still be Seattle and Green Bay...

...Dallas will somehow emerge to go to the Super Bowl because of good QB play.

AFC West: Denver

Was out in Kansas City recently and they are all excited about their chances this year, but doesn't Manning's team always win this division? Good quarterbacking goes a long ways.

AFC South: Colts

Colts. Luck is a really good passer. They don't have much else, but the rest of the teams here are really putrid.

AFC North: Bengals

I'm not in love with anyone in this division either. In recent years, the Bengals are always up there, but the shoddy play of Dalton does them in no matter how good the rest of the team is. I suppose they can still win the division because the Ravens and Steelers seem down and Manziel set back the Browns for another 10 years.

Which brings us to the AFC East: New England

I don't think that Brady will serve four games. I'm not sure he'll serve even four minutes. It doesn't matter anyway. New England will win the division again, but there will be a lot of competition. I think Miami will be good. I think the Bills will be good...but will they be good enough to end the 16 year playoff-less run?

Nope!

Wild Cards:

Miami and Kansas City.

Did I reference quarterback play at all as I went through the reviews?

It's a passing driven league. All the rules are set up for quarterbacks. The defensive player can't even hit the receiver with a hot breath. Running backs are hardly a factor at all anymore.

So, ground and pound and win with D is a grand idea...

...if you don't have a QB.

And the Bills don't.

Sorry, boys...I think it will be close though...I'll say 9-7, but a whole bunch of road games in a row will hurt down the stretch.

And yet...

...some good news for you.

I don't think the Pats will make it back to meet Dallas.

I have a sleeper in the AFC.

I'm saying the Super Bowl goes like this:

Dallas over Miami.

(And I'm hoping that Frank Zocco is watching the game in a rubber room because Miami will lose on a last drive type of scenario).

Editor's Note: I am going to try, very hard, not to be negative about the Bills or the league this year. I will not mention the felonies committed by the players or the mush that the former players brains are...after all, it's entertainment...who cares if the combatants are getting destroyed, right? This is America!!! We love football!!!

America's Team Wins It!!!!

And Jerry Jones joins Donald Trump on the GOP ticket!!!!!

Suits

-
Like a lot of other people we got pulled into the series, ‘Suits’ on Netflix. I’ve never had much fun hanging around lawyers who have questioned me as a construction safety officer. I once testified in a case where the opposing lawyer started questioning me by going through my educational background. “So,” he said, racing to a crescendo, “You graduated from college with a degree in Communications-Journalism and suddenly, 30 years later, you’re a ‘safety expert.’” He actually made the quotation marks with his fingers. I just looked at him. “How does that happen?” He bellowed, sure that he was going to discredit me. “Well,” I said. “I knew I was overqualified to become a lawyer.” The courtroom erupted in laughter. Even the judge chuckled. The rest of his questions landed flat. So, I wasn’t all that keen on a show about lawyers, but ‘Suits’ is great. Meghan Markle became a princess because of the show, and she is very good in it (and a beautiful woman). Yet, there is so much more. The wri

My Buddy, Dave

-
Way back in 1997, I started working with a steel erection company out of Syracuse. I was coming straight from a long stint with a steel erector here in Buffalo so I knew my stuff when it came to steel erection safety rules. On day one, I met with the safety director and he was just getting started as a safety guy, but man, he certainly cared about the guys he worked with. Dave was a good man from the start. He’d say things like: “You’re so full of beans.” Just a down to earth, hardworking guy who became a fast friend. We drove all around New York State setting up jobs. I always let Dave drive so that I could rest. One fine day, way up North of Syracuse, we passed a state trooper.  I glanced at the speedometer. “You’re screwed,” I said, and seconds later, the lights came on. Dave was beside himself.  The cop stopped by the window, grabbed the license and registration and headed back to his vehicle. “Here’s the thing,” I said. “You’re pissed, but you’re such a good guy that I bet you tha

Mom & Ollie

 Ollie Stadium is a mess. The heavy rains rendered the backyard a mud pit and even though we threw in the side yard, the Big O was looking for more, and we were both covered in mud. I had to take some steam out of him somehow so I suggested we go visit Grandma. Ollie hates the car, but he laid quietly as we made the trip. We even brought the football because there is plenty of room to play at Grandma’s. Mom opened the door and started laughing. I thought about the love she had for every single dog we ever had. Oliver was quick to give my Mom a kiss, and then he stood beside her. The love between Mom and Dogs is a mutual bond. Through the years, Mom would make breakfast for the dogs.  Fried eggs, toast, bacon… She would wrap Christmas gifts for them. “To Jeter, Love Santa,” she would write on the cards. They played with the big chicken that made a lot of noise. Mom tossed the football and Ollie brought it back to her. As the visit drew to a close I headed for the door.  “C’mon, Oliver,”
