JESSEFEFFER

Speaking of Ducks, reading these posts I am reminded of the first time I saw Duck Hodges throwing live vs the Bills on the SNF broadcast. I immediately got extremely confident.

Lots of people to blame. Referee will often automatically reset the play clock after the ball is marked ready for play, Or a player asks for the reset. I blame Rex for not knowing it was going on. Did not know the stuff about how the NFL responded.

Yeah, he two hand slammed his helmet after a PI no call at the end of the 2nd quarter. Levy told one of them they had been bought as the headed to the half time locker room. The official said something about equal opportunity for the ball but Brad Edwards played right through Andre. It's at 1:31:02 of this video. I feel the need to enlighten the younger TBD members about the past. Andre spikes helmet

I love the effort but may I suggest "aquatic" as this is an adjective that does apply to fish. "To make his name aquatic."

I think this contract sets him up to earn more over his career than Mahomes. So, the answer is yes.

Imo, the two best Tyrod Taylor games of the season were both losses. The Seahawks and the Dolphins II. The critical plays, at least the ones that convinced me that Rex had to go were these: On Dan Carpenters FG attempt Richard Sherman hit him after a whistle blow injuring him. Buffalo then took an illegal formation penalty as Carpenter made his 30 yd kick. Back five yards Carpenter missed his FG after making the prior two and Buffalo still trailed by two scores at 28-17. 1st & 10 at SEA 35 (0:03 - 2nd) D.Carpenter 53 yard field goal is No Good, Short, Center-G.Sanborn, Holder-C.Schmidt. PENALTY on SEA-R.Sherman, Defensive Offside, 5 yards, enforced at SEA 35 - No Play. Unabated to the kicker. (But the late whistle allowed Sherman to hit Carpenter--legally) (0:03 - 2nd) Timeout #4 by BUF at 00:03. Trainer came on to the field to attend to #2. Charged 4th? timeout to #2. He has to leave for next play 1st & 5 at SEA 30 (0:03 - 2nd) J.Williams spiked the ball to stop the clock. 2nd & 5 at SEA 30 (0:01 - 2nd) (Field Goal formation) PENALTY on BUF-D.Carpenter, Delay of Game, 5 yards, enforced at SEA 30 - No Play. 2nd & 10 at SEA 35 (0:01 - 2nd) (Field Goal formation) D.Carpenter 54 yard field goal is No Good, Wide Right, Center-G.Sanborn, Holder-C.Schmidt. In the confusion of the Sherman hit on Carpenter (late whistle for unabated) his removal from the game for one play, the need to spike followed by the officials trying to sort out the situation. They started the play clock and it got down to 8 seconds before the ball was finally marked. It hit zero for a noticeable period of time before anyone involved with the game noticed, including the refs one of which finally threw the flag. No one got the play clock reset. No one on the Bills side noticed this error. Neither player on the field nor Rex nor someone on his bloated 27 member coaching staff. A small detail ti which no one paid attention. Did the Bills defense only have 10 men on the field during Ajayi's backbreaking 57 run into Bills territory in OT? Yep. Two years into his coaching Rex still couldn’t even get the proper number of players on the field. The worst about this sequence was that after the punt, controversial as it was, there was a TV timeout. So there was an extended amount of time for someone to count to 10. Another detail that slipped by Rex and staff. What was the silver lining in these two events? I think it made it clear in Terry and Kim's mind that their big splash, "send a message to the league" hire was a mistake. That he neither paid attention to details, delegated responsibility nor held the right people accountable, thus creating the mindset about the qualities they wanted in their new coach hire: A leader of men who was obsessed with details, be they important or seemingly trivial. That whole "for want of a nail the kingdom was lost" mentality. Because of Rex, they had a new appreciation for a HC candidate like Sean.

Maybe it stems from this connection she made with Kim Pegula. bills-pod-squad-ep-28-cynthia-frelund Oops. Kim wasn't on this episode. Never mind.

He is not just a D3 try hard guy. He has something many others do not.

The Bills suspended Chris Brown last year for answering a Tasker question about who was playing where on the OL. Probably an innocent mistake as he had been reporting on his practice observations his entire career. Tasker asked Beane the theorerical question about cutting an unvaccinated player over a vaccinated one. I doubt that was cleared by anyone. I like Brown as the host more than I did Murphy and he tends to keep Tasker on point, often completing his thoughts when he loses them, correcting him for name slips and the like. Brown is better at the interviews as Steve's thoughts tend to ramble during a the formulation of a question. Steve is very good a story telling, I think, which is when he is at his best. Suffice to say there are different types of bonuses that make up the 150 million and there will be cap hits from them all 8 years.

Jordan Palmer due on One Bills Live at 1 PM. I love hearing him gush about Josh. It never seems old to me. Puts a smile on my face every time.

The Browns live stream their entire practice. They zoom in tight during the team portion so as to not show any formations outside the tackle box. They sell advertising for this.

Hire the right people, empower them to do their jobs, provide them with all the resources they need and, finally, don't get caught doing embarrassing things on tape, or at least suppress it and have it destroyed.

If that happened in a game to a Bills receiver I'd be wanting a DPI call. Milano had Knox wrapped up before the ball got there and Dawson could only go for it with one hand. Also, I am all for more aggressive play on the TE, force the refs to make the call. We know they will make catches if they get a free release and are not challenged at the catch point. At least they did last year.

Maybe she heard the Bills had talked with both the Broncos and Browns about moving up and assumed it was for the #1 overall pick whereas I think it was for the #4 overall pick.

Are those pads on the linemen's helmets new or have I not been paying attention? Looks like a segmented variation of Kelso's anti concussion Kazoo model.

I remember Bruce's rookie year training camp at Fredonia. He was giving Jones and Devlin fits during one on one drills and was chuckling out loud at their frustration. That was before he got serious about being a pro.

I respond with this. Mouse McNally and Jason Peters

I do not get your point. How does an individual's quest to be great track with how an organization manages its business in a two decade run of excellence? Josh's back story is part of what makes him who he is. As he has often said "You bloom where you are planted." Family, Firebaugh, coaches at every level, Reedley, Wyoming, the Bill and his unique situation with Palmer. Surround yourself with people that believe in you wherever you can find them and bust your butt to give them the satisfaction of being right.

It takes fuel, oxygen and heat to make a fire. If any of the 3 is missing then there is no fire. In an SAT type analogy, it takes special talent (physical and/or mental) a nurturing environment that can foster growth (family, community, coaches, peers and opportunity) and true passion to be great at anything. I think JAQB17 is upper echelon in all 3 components.

When he is in tight coverage he is totally focused on making the catch. When running in the open he wants to know where the defenders are and is less focused on the ball. That's my theory anyways.

Maybe they never saw this episode of The Twilight Zone. To Serve Man

Maybe this was posted here back around the time of the draft but this is an interesting article by Brentley Weissman of The Draft Network which appeared there on 4/8. I think he underplays the part that relatively mediocre pro day workout numbers he posted had on creating his drop in most ratings but he had him #11 on his draft board. I'll say this, when a 19 year old has a season like he had in 2019 it likely points to there being something special about him. WHY HAS GREGORY ROUSSEAU FALLEN SO FAR? The conclusion: "At the end of the day, Rousseau’s rare length, agility, and sheer power allow him to make plays that other defenders simply can’t. Do I wish he was quicker twitched and had more of a sample size to go off of? Sure. However, I struggle to see why folks are down on this player when, for the most part, his tape is excellent—and from a physical traits standpoint, he has it all."

Marv and Shane were mentioned in the article.
