Just another over priced preseason game
Bleeding Bills Blue replied to RVJ's topic in The Stadium Wall
Last one i went to, my ticket was free from a friend, and it was dollar dogs and sodas. I ate 6 hot dogs, walked down to field level and took some pictures, then left sometime in the 4th quarter to beat traffic. -
OT…All is not going well on South Beach
Bleeding Bills Blue replied to 78thealltimegreat's topic in The Stadium Wall
The 3 players listed are not good players in what i've seen. Not to say that our RT situation has been much better. Hunt seems pretty solid at RG, and Armstead while older is still everything you want in a left tackle. The problem is their QB is a lefty and austin jackson is just not very good - tons of athleticism but hes just not physical enough. Our guy is similar but overly physical and penalty prone. -
Super bowl ending last year was pretty bad - that holding call at the end just abruptly ended the game when they swallowed their whistles all game long. Pretty weak call, and then factoring in that it was 3rd and 8 with 1:54 left, and philly having a timeout and moving the ball mostly at will... just felt fishy to me.

Who Will End Up Being The Bigger QB Bust?
Bleeding Bills Blue replied to Rico's topic in The Stadium Wall
I watched mostly Fields highlights, but i did watch him play against buffalo and he looked terrible. Cold and windy game so i guess that can't be discounted - allen also looked pretty terrible. I just felt like buffalo focused on containing fields and he had no answer. They literally lost the last 10 games of the season including winnable games against miami (2 chances to score in 4th quarter, punt and turnover on downs), detroit (3 and out and turnover on downs in 2 minute drill) and atlanta (down 3, intercepted in 2 minute drill). He doesn't flash much as a rhythm passer, so teams can play a bit deeper in their zones which tends to result in tougher windows. You can blame the line a little bit, but 91 sacks in 2 seasons and a career sack rate of 13.4 is worse than tyrod/kaepernick/vick etc. - and his 14.7% sack rate last year is worse than Rob Johnson's career in buffalo. There's bad offensive lines, and there's the habit of holding the ball... i don't think you can say its just one or the other. -
I have the Bills 53 man roster right here
Bleeding Bills Blue replied to Matt_In_NH's topic in The Stadium Wall
That probably pushes a LB off the roster - or hamlin. I don't think they like lewis more than hamlin tbh. -

Bleeding Bills Blue replied to Matt_In_NH's topic in The Stadium Wall
Maybe Lawson. Depends how many DBs they keep too. This is how i have it. I cut Mancz because he's not good and you can just put him on the PS for a 3rd string center if needed. Tough to see a full need for 6 LB's when we rarely play more than 2. Matakevich is on PUP at the moment so you can just flip flop him with Klein. -

Bleeding Bills Blue replied to Matt_In_NH's topic in The Stadium Wall
Both Gilliam and Morris play special teams, so that gives them some roster advantage in the back end of a 53 man roster. I believe Matakevich is on PUP at the moment, so I'm not sure where his status is at the moment. Klein can play special teams too - it's always tricky when you're talking about a 3rd stringer though. The majority of a 3rd stringers snaps are on special teams, so you probably evaluate that when saying i want this guy or that guy. Whichever defensive player is injured at the time he comes back most likely. -
Teddy Bridgewater signs with the Lions
Bleeding Bills Blue replied to Gregg's topic in The Stadium Wall
https://www.sportskeeda.com/nfl/news-which-quarterback-longest-active-regular-season-starting-streak-nfl-examining-top-5-qbs-available I think it matters less as a "season long" loss, once that happens you're done anyway. It's more like, if Allen misses week 10 MNF against denver - can the backup step in and do enough to not kill us? Are we better off with Barkley? If you think that, then you have to cut K. Allen, and look to add someone developmental to the practice squad. -

Players already disliking Bienemy…
Bleeding Bills Blue replied to LabattBlue's topic in The Stadium Wall
It's training camp in August. The most you're going to get chewed out is over the summer in my experience. Installing a new offense with a bare cupboard at QB is challenging enough, you probably do need to come at them sort of hard to get messages across and identify your leaders. -
Teddy Bridgewater signs with the Lions
Bleeding Bills Blue replied to Gregg's topic in The Stadium Wall
They did try this with Fromm, he was just really bad. -
4th in the NFL in sacks, only DT in the top 10. Also top 10 in TFLs. 3rd in QB hits. 1 missed tackle on the year. He makes the entire unit go.

Spencer Brown Injury Concern
Bleeding Bills Blue replied to vtnatefootball11's topic in The Stadium Wall
Throw rousseau in there too - he came back the week after von went down. -
Singletary had 3000+ yards and averaged 4.7 YPC over the last 4 years. He's certainly not all-pro, but he's not far off Miles Sanders and David Montgomery statistically at all. You can do a lot worse. Moss on the other hand was injured at times, and wholly ineffective at others. There were numbers from college that seemed to indicate he was going to be a player outside of his RAS. Also RAS doesn't mean everything - you do want players who are good at football, not working out.

If rapp becomes a contributor- he also fully replaces dean marlowe in any capacity. Hamlin also was better than anyone else who played safety last year other than hyde and poyer. So... Assuming you keep 4, i don't see why you can't use him as depth. Poyer's primary backup is probably Rapp, and Hyde's is probably Poyer TBH. Keep the best 4 players, and i don't see that being Marlowe.

Sean Payton not a fan of the Jets off-season
Bleeding Bills Blue replied to The 9 Isles's topic in The Stadium Wall
Jets gonna Mets i guess -
Training Camp opens today! 2023 Season is upon us!
Bleeding Bills Blue replied to Chandler#81's topic in The Stadium Wall
I think we could have done more to address RT - but Quessenberry played there a year ago, and they added shell. The goal is to get the most out of Brown at RT - if he fails then you know you need to use serious draft capital to replace him. You also bring in players who you think can both start in a pinch, and drive him to be a more successful player through competition. -
Is the AFC East being overhyped this year?
Bleeding Bills Blue replied to Success's topic in The Stadium Wall
Miami lost the last 4 games Tua started FWIW (and buffalo was the only game he played well in), and 6 of their last 7 games overall. They had some really solid offensive stretches... but the media seems to think Tua was unstoppable but when the games mattered... L to SF (3 turnovers), L to LAC (10/28 for 145 yards in a freaking dome), L to Buf (fine game, but allen was significantly finer), L to GB (i guess a mulligan for the undiagnosed concussion but... 3 interceptions and 2 fumbles is pretty bad in a must win game). To me it looks like McDaniel was figured out a little bit - and my assumption is they want to run the ball more effectively to counter what teams did to disrupt their RPO game. Chubb, Phillips, Wilkins, holland, howard, Jones were all there last year... they added ramsey. But that unit was 18th in yards and 24th in points allowed. If Ramsey is as good as he thinks he is that should be some pretty substantial improvement, but they are probably at least a little bit overrated. They have fangio now - who is a great coach... but he is the exact opposite of Josh Boyer. He blitzes far less and plays far more 2 high looks. Are Phillips and Chubb going to be able to make tons of pressure without LBs and S's coming off the edge? Are Holland and Jones going to be as effective of players playing high? Lot of stuff to unpack here, and I'm glad we'll get some film on them before we play them. -
Herbert deal signed : 262M - 5 yrs extension
Bleeding Bills Blue replied to TBBills Fan's topic in The Stadium Wall
His cap hit next year already jumps from 11.5M to 29.5. Can probably convert some of it to a bonus and spread it across the deal, but the new money probably starts at probably 50M per year. You can take less when you're a bit older and you've comfortably made more money than you can probably even spend. But the first deal out of the rookie contract is when you chase a bag. -
Media predictions for the AFC East
Bleeding Bills Blue replied to newcam2012's topic in The Stadium Wall
They were 9-8 (started 3-7) last year and their final 5 wins featured wins over houston, the jets, and titans x2. Titans added hopkins, jags added ridley - i think the titans got the better player in that comparison. They also lost games to Washington, Indianapolis, Denver, and Houston. Defensively they were 24th in yards and lost a pass rusher to FA. Ridley, Kirk, Engram, and Etienne is a nice group though, and lawrence definitely looked more confident as the year wore on shaking off the Urban Meyer season. They should win the division, and if Lawrence is better they should walk away with it pretty handily. But they also draw KC and Buffalo as their non-common opponents with the rest of their division, the AFC north is never a cupcake, and their defense is not very good at all.
