We need this one

Especially for next year. "Unguaranteed base salary" effectively means that the Bills get first negotiating rights. There are so many ways to change that number: outright cuts, pay cuts, extension, conversion to void years

You could just say Mississippi

Not a bad deal. Starting caliber player for an effective 4th. Almost no cap hit this year, and will be going into a contract year with 0 guarantees next year. If we like what we see, the Bills have a ton of leverage to get him on a new deal. If we don't we can cut bait with no strings.

Just as a bit of perspective: Howie Roseman was absolutely reviled in Philadelphia in 2014 and 2015. You got articles like this: https://www.bleedinggreennation.com/2015/12/31/10693256/eagles-howie-roseman-tom-donahoe-general-manager-jeffrey-lourie-chip-kelly-fired-power-structure

There is little chance of White being good to go week 1. This could be more than a rental

I think it's just instinct. That's what the off-season and training camp scouts noticed but he remains sure handed. It translates into consistent YAC

I'll say Kincaid has absolutely shown reason to be funneled to. He has an 88% catch rate and always seems to pick up a few YAC. Right now he's a younger Beasley. I'm less enthusiastic about Shakir, but I think he can be what Gabe Davis was at his best: a hypercompetant #4

Refs needed a backdoor cover for the oddsmakers

I don't hate him, but #2 we get stupid amounts of money thrown at them. I would not get in a bidding war Precisely. He's a fantastic #4, and has been passable #2. We need an upgrade not break the bank to keep him

Thank you autocorrect. Davis. I don't care if Davis leaves in free agency

Well that certainly was a game. It is the one that I've enjoyed the most in a month, but even that couldn't be clean. There was so much that I had to rattle off first impressions The Good This was the gameplan that TBD members have been calling for. Josh was allowed to run in brief spots. They played with tempo. They had rhythm for the first time in a month. Wrinkles will be needed, but I think we have the general formula. 1st TD for Dalton Kincaid! Today was the coming out party and he's earned it. He looked every bit what we hoped for in the offseason. We've needed a safety valve, and I think he looks the part once the Bills allowed him to be. Sam Martin. While I didn't love all the times the Bills punted away, Martin made it a smart call. 3 punts within the 10, 2 punts within the 5, and the last one should have been at the 2. I prefer not having him be a player of interest, but he's doing good work. Shakir looks like a viable #4 WR these last few weeks. It's good to know, if the Bills get David walk. Terrel Bernard was all over the field. While losing Milano is devastating, I was legitimately calling MLB our defensive position of weakness before the season started and Bernard is playing at a Pro Bowl level right now. The Bad I need someone to run some analytics about out efficiency running out of shotgun. Because whenever I notice that we've done so, it's been a catastrophe. I'll give Dorsey flowers overall, but there was no reason not to tush push Josh at the goal line. If you worried about his health, hand it off to Harris, but don't make the distance longer. The Irritating Once again, the refs seems to be the MVP of a game. I saw something like 20 penalties called, and a bunch were backbreakers. To me, the second drive extending 4th down penalty is inexcusable. Phillps has Mayfield, a QB who has shown that he will throw the ball away in the process of being sacked and have magic happen, wrapped up. Mayfield is being driven backwards. Forward progress has stopped. The play isn't blown dead. Phillips can either smash a defenseless QB, let him make a play or do his best to wrap him up. He chose 3, and had incidental facemask contact making the tackle. It had no effect on the play. It certainly had no effect on reversing a 4th and long and turning it into a 1st and 10. Again. Tonight is the 1st night in many years when the refs lost a game. Our time management. Why are we calling timeouts at the worst spots? My stream resolution was... To compare it to a virus filled pirate stream is an insult to the pirates

WHAT IS WITH OUT TIMEOUT USAGE

refs are the buccs MVP and they are still losing

The Buccs have gotten a lot of lucky breaks with chancy throws, barely avoided sacks, the Bills losing two beautiful returns and they are still down by 14. that's how much better we are playing

Bernard looking good again tonight

no, that means he was going to be on the field. There are ways to use him there

Why were we not using Kincaid again?

I mean so far, I have seen nothing that tells me that if we let Gabe walk in the offseason that we get a significant downgrade from Shakir

Man I love seeing Kincaid get his first TD. But can we retire the shotgun QB draw? It Does. Not. Work.

Why can't we have nice things?

Mine is terrible. I'd think I was using a pirate site never mind the one by one of the biggest in the world

Yeah these refs are definitely giving the Bucs slack

Are you kidding me? How many times do our opponents get an extra second and a half?
