Whats wrong with Beane's drafting? Elam was brought in because sometimes you need to play man coverage, and he's a bigger faster man coverage style corner. He needs some work to fit into the total defensive scheme, but he'll get there. And if he doesn't - its pretty cool when a 2020 7th rounder and 2022 6th rounder don't look even slightly out of place.

Pretty sure after one of the timeouts they pulled poyer, hyde, edmunds, milano, and Johnson... so that to me is a good reason to use a timeout.
-
They were running the clock out and buffalo was content to let them hand it off. Then they switched to no huddle passing. I'd call timeout too, get the right personnel in to match.

Fair - he got the majority of snaps by a decent margin. We just pass a ton. For this reason or another, when moss was on the field for pass snaps they tended to end up as check downs to him. Motor had a called screen, and i don't believe moss did. Fumble is annoying, but people fumble. If I'm the coach I'm on his ass this week about it, and drive home focus and composure in big moments. I'm also not gonna crucify a guy for a fumble. Allen averages about 10 fumbles a year. Hell Motor has 10 recorded fumbles in his NFL career as well. I don't mind benching a back when he fumbles either, just don't bury a guy for a season when you will need them down the line.

I don't know enough about how an NFL team runs - but Moss could have had a good week of practice. Maybe Motor got dinged a little. Everything everyone says is pure speculation. I do believe that buffalo doesn't want Motor cracking like 250 touches though. Too many guys missing too much time, along with general wear and tear that can sap some of that effectiveness in the playoffs.

Ravens and Lamar do not reach contract agreement
Bleeding Bills Blue replied to Steel City Mafia's topic in The Stadium Wall
They'll make you their percentage back in endorsements, can prevent you from getting swindled by friends/family. Know trusting people in money management. -
Jordan Phillips is the best DT on this team.
Bleeding Bills Blue replied to Pine Barrens Mafia's topic in The Stadium Wall
Yeah that phillips stunt was funny. Everyone shifted and phillips came around the edge unblocked like a maniac. -
You probably play 2 games a season in sustained heat. I rotate as much as possible in that situation. Moss also was out there a lot on that 13 play drive for whatever reason, probably something they saw and wanted him in there for pass pro or something. I think him and motor are important for the MNF game. That team has pushed the bills around for a few years now, its time to get physical and push back.

The Ripoff Report: Game Thoughts
Bleeding Bills Blue replied to WhitewalkerInPhilly's topic in The Stadium Wall
I do think Stafford is rusty - the whole training camp pitch count piece. But the bills pass rush was beating him up all night. Sacked a ton, and there were a few where he got the ball off and got absolutely crushed. -
He's usually pretty sure handed, and doesn't really fumble much. He had that miscue in the 49ers game his rookie year(I believe that fumble was tied to Allen but it was a Moss fumble imo). In Miami last season he had one get punched out when i think he was stretching for yards similar to this. Motor has 10 fumbles in 3 seasons fwiw.

First ever Buffalo home game- MNF against Titans
Bleeding Bills Blue replied to McBean's topic in The Stadium Wall
I remember showing some out of town colleagues some photos i took on the walk to the playoff game last year. People huddled around trash can fires and fire pits. Cans and trash everywhere. My beers kept freezing too. Then we beat the piss out of the patriots so it was basically the greatest game I've ever attended. -
Why would you want to go to another teams practice squad? You've been here 3 years, you know the playbook, etc. He can sign with any team at any time, but now that he's on a practice squad they have to give him 3 game checks even if you cut him or don't use him. And after that they still have to expose him to waivers etc.
-
I mean... the vikings drafted a lot of dudes there plus you have the new GM. I think the raiders alarming miss rate on first rounders is probably more notable than Minnesota cutting 6 of 11 picks from 2021. They did make 10 more picks in 2022 and 9 of those guys made the roster. So 14 of 21 picks are still there from the last 2 years. Just too many picks in too short a time. How many 2016 buffalo bills 7 draft picks played on the 2017 team? 2.
-
They at least wanted a backup plan if he is being let go. As for Cook I don't consider him a 3rd down back - we pass quite a bit on first down these days too 🙂 Yeah... no. You don't trade him unless you want to play the backup. Not because of 2023.

Extrapolate his numbers out and you'd get 2201 yards from scrimmage (1494 rushing and 707 receiving), and 9-10 TDs. Which would have been more yards than MJD and Rice had that year, but fewer TDs. His 6.6 yards per touch was considerably higher than any other running back that season.

Especially for 450k! If its a 10M difference in cap hit or something there's a lot that goes into that decision. But a 450k difference? Just pull the trigger.
