Back when I was an athlete, an extra day off in season allowed the body to rest and repair. Definnitely a good practice late in a season. JUst enough practice to put in the game plan and polish up timing.

The Bills D scheme is now unmasked in the league. On TV they said "blood in the water for the Bills now" the scheme will have to be tweeked, and need better players. and, Milano looks a step slow out there to me, I don't want to see that, but I do.

Yes, Elam is a cover/man CB and has all the physical skills to do that. But, McD doesn't value that, he wants guys in position, even if they are a step slow. (Beneford) Elam is the second coming of Ronald Darby, who was also a cover CB. (still in the league btw) Elam will go elsewhere and play well imho. Beneford is McD's find...but the LA receivers undressed him. He had his zone covered, but, didn't make a play on the ball much. And, the scoop a couple of weeks ago, Beneford showed he is relatively slow for a CB, and not up to running with the speed receivers. So, the McD scheme gets good results most of the time, except when the opposition sees what is going on and does something else. A D set up to stop the big play in the air can't stop the run much as we have seen now. And our D line isn't good enough to get pressure sufficient to let the zone back end get things done all the time. (zero sacks against the Rams)

Mike White is the real backup imho. Mitch is a journeyman, but has played a lot. Might get by with him a couple of games. white has had some runs as a starter, and has shown he can play. Buffalo is lucky to have him. Likley to loose him next year as he will be in demand. He left Miami for difference in opinion w the team management.

McD has show he knows how to beat the Ravens. KC too. Its just doing it all in a string.....nothing is really out of reach imho.

Have seen him to it before....its one of his moves.

I am guessing he would want SB if h e c an. Them time off. Beauty contests aren't any fun. Maybe he can be playing Pebble Beach!

Spielman is nobody's fool.

Beating the Ravens after the beat down they gave the Bills would bring satisfaction to each team member and the coaches.

Ahhhh...NO!

Daboll had occasional brain cramps with an off the wall play call. Brady has fewer, but not zero.

Lions may get Milano and three lbs on the field if they try to run on the Bills. D Williams is an asset out there, and I don't like him on the bench.

Dozens....Instagram shows it about every third item today. Even one w the Brazilian broadcast feed. (Exciting in Portugues as well)

Ford Field is a nice venue. tough out for the Bills though. Still, a relatively even match for heavyweights.

Would like to get some action on that one.

Samuel failed to meet the ball on Josh second int. If he had just attempted to go get it, the int was less likely. Samuel just waited for the ball to arrive, which it didn't due to the db undercut. so the int was at least partically on Samuel.

Logue may go back to Atlanta's practice squad. Time will tell.

Reports: Rams trade CB Tre'Davious White to Ravens (yahoo.com)

Three years as a Bill I think. Last I heard, he was on the community board that owns the Green Bay Packers, but that is old news.

Most of the sushi in WNY is Anglicized. In Japan, the fish piece is rubbed on the bottom with wasabi before being put on the rice cake. But, US consumers find that objectionable so even Wegmans skips the wasabi rub. In Japan, you are judged at the table (with Japanese) by how much soy sauce you use w your sushi, with lower amounts being more "cultured". By that standard, Americans are less so, using a lot of soy. Anyhow, I learned a little w my year in Japan, and occasionally partake these many years later. I sure didn't learn that taste growing up in WNY.

Tom's voice isn't great for media work. Grates on me some. But, content is good, so I can forgive the performance part . (the voice)

A lot of speculation here with no knowledge. Not sure this is a productive discussion. Williams has played well and has progressed. If the Bills are in playoffs and not chasing home field, Milano could phase in......or not. If the Bills are 12-2 in December, why change what is working. And, Milano would be rusty/put him on a pitch count.

Is it time for the pool on how few int's Josh throws this year? Extrapolates to 0, but that is unlikely. I do recall a year Goff had only 4 though. So, need to keep the no INT game rolling. The MVP will be the caboose on that train.

Clemon's was a B grade player w the Bills, never could make the big play. Solid in general, but never the INT or the endzone pd. He left for a boatload of money in SF, and I was actually glad to see him go.

Yes, Hamlin knows the D, but is slow to execute many times. Maybe the rookie #2 will get there sooner than later. Let McD decide that.
