"Ryan Fitzpatrick and the Beeeeeels." I actually liked both of those guys just fine.

During the drought days, I one time successfully convinced my dad, who was not a gullible guy by any means, that Spero Dedes rented an apartment in Buffalo during the season just to avoid having to fly there 6-7 times a year to call games.

If they're truly blitzing a lot, then they're the worst team in NFL history at it.

Don't worry, guys. McDermott has some boilerplate, uninspiring locker room speeches queued up along with multiple studs in the secondary who are subpar players but know the system. Santa Clara, here we come.

That's me every time I see a highlight of the Norwood kick. McDermott is pretty milquetoast and not a very inspiring speaker, but it hasn't seemed to matter before. I think that element of coaching might be overrated at the professional level.

Ed Oliver was a lot better at remembering his horses' names than Antonio Cromartie was with his children's.

There were tons of bandwagon Dallas fans in the 90s everywhere. A loathsome team cheered by generally loathsome people haha

He should be. He's gotten everything he's wanted and more regarding the defensive line, and he and Beane continue to unearth one undersized stiff after another. He's gotten everything he's wanted regarding the secondary, and it's filled with mediocre and below-average vets and young guys who are always hurt. If the defensive s**ts the bed again this year after they refused to allocate any resources to help Allen, it will be all on him, and he knows it.

A game they were dying to blow, by the way, until a Mark Andrews drop bailed them out.

What is the argument here? That because he was the victim of an unfortunate freak accident (that ended up turning out okay), he just automatically gets a roster spot in perpetuity?

Looked like he came up lame there

Some real pinpoint passing by Buechele on that drive.

Yeah, a lot of guys seem fairly unconcerned that a last place team from 2024 clearly has a deeper backup roster than us.

Davidson having one of the worst preseason in recent memory. Feel bad for the guy at this point.

Why even play Trubisky?

I think the worst I saw was that game in 2014 against Tampa where they left Manuel in the game well into the second half just so he could score a single point for his confidence, and then Marrone pretty much demanded they bring in Orton because EJ was so incompetent.

I don't mind a butt-kicking in preseason as long as you see some guys make a few plays. What has been the standout play? Is there one? Tough to be positive about no positives.

Maybe good news for Shavers?

Oh, I was talking about the play in the AFCCG lol

My ass is still chapped about them ruling that a catch after the ball clearly hit the ground. What a joke.

The main prerequisite for the backup QB position is being friends with Allen. I get you have to make your franchise player happy, but they haven't made a real attempt to find a competent guy that can step in for a month a keep the season afloat since signing Keenum.

This will never be said publicly because it's insensitive, but he seems to care more about developing this brand as the guy who almost died during a game than he does about improving as a player.

Bears having a domed stadium is wrong on so many levels, but who cares about tradition when you can host a Super Bowl!

Yeah, I can understand being outmatched, but that's no excuse for being completely flat.

You know, these teams practiced together all week. The coaches may even have an agreement where the Bears want to get Caleb some stress-free reps and the Bills agreed to go vanilla as possible on the defensive side. Conversely, the Bills may want to get a good idea who to pick between White and Trubiskey and want the Bears to bring a little heat to simulate a real game situation.
