  1. I disagree. Josh needs reps. He's still an inexperienced QB, and practice just isn't the same as playing in a game. Now, if he and the first string O look good for a couple of drives then you pull them. And as for the starting D playing? Name me an NFL defense that couldn't use more "live" reps practicing their tackling fundamentals. Next week sit everybody, but I want to see the starters in there for a reasonable amount of time tonight. You can't "worry" about injuries.
  2. Ha. I agree, the Giants are going to start the season with Eli. I think the only way the Bills face Jones in W2 is if Eli gets hurt.
  3. Dude, don't be an ass and try sticking to the subject. I know that's difficult for you. Do you think Gase has shown strong leadership qualities? By contrast, has McDermott?
  4. Another option is to download the CBS app and sign up for a free one-week trial of All Access -- problem solved.
  5. You mean any pass traveling more than 15 yards? Any DC worth his salt will know exactly how to gameplan Peterman in a regular season contest. Even in his "great" game last night against future fry cooks his yards/attempt was just over 5.
  6. No, it doesn't, but he's got baggage now, and I don't know about you but I'm not seeing great leadership qualities in that guy.
  7. Bears -- Y2 of franchise QB Colts -- Andrew Luck returned Rams -- Y2 of franchise QB Eagles -- Y2 of franchise QB Yes, if Darnold takes a big step forward the Jets could be successful, but I don't think Gase has established himself as being anywhere near as good a HC as Pedersen, McVay, Reich, or even Nagy.
  8. For the umpteenth time...Vegas lines are not based upon who the oddsmakers think will win or even statistical probabilities...they are established in the hopes of attracting equal money on each side of the bet so that the house "wins" 5-10%.
  9. I called today...I was lazy and didn't feel like fighting so I didn't push it for more than the $30/mo. for 12 months discount they offered me. Sunday Ticket Max is about $390 so I'll get it for $30. Also confirmed no contract so if the NFL announces there will be other Sunday Ticket options next year I can finally quit DTV.
  10. "advanced enough passer to handle the gregggggggg williams pressure" -- LOLOLOLOL Tell me the last time that blowhard coached a top 10 defense.
  11. So you're saying Friday night will be a nice early "test" of the Bills' OL? That's cool.
  12. You're complicating what was a very simple statement. Don't overthink it.
  13. If Bell is only a 1,000 yard rusher, he better have 1,000 receiving as well or that signing was a failure.
  14. So you're saying it's a bad thing? My comment isn't particular to any coach; the bottom line is players who like and respect each other play harder for each other.
  15. That Bates trade may wind up being one of Beane's greatest moves ever, particularly if Morse's concussion concerns don't go away. I don't think there's any way Johnson doesn't make the 53...you don't try to "sneak" pass-rushing talent like that onto your practice squad, and the word is already out.
  16. I absolutely love Bar-Bill's beef on weck but their wings aren't truly Buffalo style. The sauce is different.
  17. Nah, I'm sure he'll play in a couple next year too.
  18. I'm a big fan of any off-the-field "moments" showing that the team is close and the players like each other. Culture, baby.
  19. Common man, you can't be serious.
  20. All true, but it's still a direct salvo across Zeke's bow, particularly in light of Jerruh's comments about how Jalen has never missed a practice, never said "boo"...
  21. It's really a stretch to say the Bills are one of the top five teams in the NFL right now. I realize many of us are high on the fumes of "the process" but let's face it -- this team hasn't proven anything yet. If I put on my "realistic" hat and avoid blatant homerism, I think one could make a reasonable argument that when you examine the franchise from top to bottom -- coaching and personnel -- the Bills have the talent to be in the upper half of the league. So that's top sixteen. I can't go farther than that until they start playing some real games.
  22. This sounds like some legitimate "sources deep inside" stuff!
