In spite of a looooot of self inflicted wounds it's an even game. Let's go.

He has control, is on his knees and the ball is pulled away

How is he not down by contact?

Damn he made that look easy.

Lets gooooo!

I'm going to go out on a limb here: I think he's going to be better than Daboll. I like Daboll. I think he did well bringing Josh along and I wish him well in NJ. But now that Allen is on his game, and can play loose I think that Dorsey can add wrinkles in. Plus, our run game has been pretty vanilla outside of RPO and Josh runs. I'm hoping that Kromer has a few things lined up.

I do enjoy watching the Jets be this decade's 2010s Bills

Thanks Yolo. If Doyle and Morris are looking like our only (non-Tre White) injuries I am very happy

Bills 38 Rams 34 I think it's going to be an airshow with two untested secondaries and some of the most talented receiving groups in the league mixed with big arm QBs. There will be splash plays

I'd like to think that McDermott has things dialed in this year. Until the Arazia situation and preseason week 3 all signs looked like we were about to hit the ground running. Last year, when the Bills were hot they could almost anyone at their best. The glaring exception to this was the Chiefs. The problem was the games when not everything clicked. Believe me, all signs we saw from Jackson, Elam and Benford were very positive. If anything, I feel like the offense was even more explosive when we saw the starters. I fully expect us to roll the Titans in Week 2, it's just that we are coming into a road game against a legitimately good opponent that makes it chaotic.

I'm going to be honest, while I will look forward to breakdowns, this is the first time in a while where I honestly have no idea which way it will go. Bluntly, if January 2022 Bills and Rams show up, I am picking the Bills. On paper, the Bills look to be the better team to me. When Allen ran the offense, and even when the second team was in, they looked amazing. The defense backups shut down Matt Ryan. But there's just so much untested: how does the new DL look with all the parts together? How does the banged up secondary hold up? How does Dorsey look in his first time running the show? I believe this team is a Super Bowl contender, and I expect them to have things dialed in by the playoffs, but I remember how they looked against the Steelers last year.

I mean, that was likely going to happen even if Tre was good to go Week 1. This is the NFL, and a passing first league. Cooper Kupp single handedly willed that team to a Super Bowl Championship. We were never going to take him away completely. The hope is that Poyer and Hyde keep it managable.

"Wut?" Is right. Welcome to the modern NFL. You *need* DBs in spades. Benford is a late round pick, does anyone think that he's going to have an issue being in a starting rotation on a team with SB aspirations?

I mean, I know they are not protected but it looks like most of the players we thought were bubble we kept.

Pretty much every name who has been floated looks the same or better

Woooow. That's the shocker for me. I didn't think he was setting the world on fire but I figured he'd make it a year as a blocking tight end. The money on that one is bad.

At this point I am no longer worried about drop off from Arazia. There's enough names that look serviceable until next year

Unfortunately regardless of his guilt or innocence it was absolutely a distraction. We are otherwise loaded for bear. I don't want a distraction in the locker room running until next Thursday, especially not over a punter.

Beanie must be reading this board

Bengals got a good season with relatively little film on Burrow and "Jamar Chase go fast" They overachieved and I truly believe that come back to Earth this year. In contrast the Ravens were snakebit as hell. I think both normalize

I just thought of something: Say that it's true that Dane Jackson is holding it down and Benford and Elam are neck and neck. If so, I feel a lot better about putting White on PUP for 4 weeks

I mean he should be in jail or at the least out of the league. But selfishly I love that he's out when the Bills play the Browns

Considering how both have looked, especially vs the Colts is anyone here really mad at the idea of a backfield with Tre White, Dane Jackson, Elam, Benford, Taron Johnson, Hyde, Poyer and Jaquan Johnson?

The man looked pretty darn good yesterday

K', you're a little rambling and incoherent there so I will try to help you out by going over things in bullet points for you. I went to school for STEM and found myself in food manufacturing. I found myself at a low point due to a combination some poor personal decisions, including not taking treatment for anxiety and depression. I take responsibility for that. But yeah, starting from scratch with your life can be tough, especially when the decision to get a degree came when industry number on salary were reporting about 20K annually higher than expected, and then needing to take a step back from even that subpar level. Getting a little extra cash, and more time to work on my mental health to get myself back on track without starving, defaulting on loans or getting evicted absolutely helped me. As bad a things were in the economy in 2020, things would have been worse had we allowed nature to run its course. On a related note, part of my trouble in the first place was that wages have been massively depressed in comparison to productivity. I am privy to some of the public reports of profit number of places I have worked and let me tell you: The parts of Corporate America that I saw still made money hand over fist. Looking at their earning statements before you scream about how inflation is causing commodity price increases. As an aside, I am still blown away by business owners who do not blink at adjusting models to increases in price for raw material in logistics, but somehow cannot grasp that labor is a commodity. This is the first time in my memory where people actually began to grasp that fact, which is one small blessing. RE: student loans-people did not blink at the idea of shelling out billions of tax cuts for corporations in some trickle down illusion. I personally support the ground up model, because if you give a millionaire $50K he will maybe so some stock buybacks with it. If you give it to middle class Americans? They put it back into their local economies. This is a much better investment, and helps the auto industry and generates generational wealth with home ownership. I get that economics might be a hard subject to pick up, but do a bit of research. Let me tell you, I spend less on gas than I used to. And I cannot put a price at having more time in my day to do things rather than sitting pissed off in my car. I know my story isn't universal. But as much as I love to criticize Biden, the stimulus reaaaaally ain't what has made it worse for most people.
