I saw the date and was like, no way that's the Tuel game. Eight freaking years ago, where does the time go?
I watch Bills games via streaming so am ~20 seconds behind TV. I had two TV's going, one with the local game and one streaming the Bills. Right before the pick I saw TD on the other screen on the bottom bar and was like, ***** I ruined a TD (thinking the Bills scored) and then that happened. It was quite the rollercoaster of emotions. I now cover the bottom of the second TV when watching two games.

McDermott was very resistant to the praise of Rousseau by reporters
That's just McD, he never wants anyone to get too high, especially a rookie.
28 minutes ago, Stranded in Boston said:In addition to his athleticism and size, Rousseau plays incredibly smart football. He displays fantastic vision, both on the edge and when he drops into short zone coverage. What a great draft pick. ... And for my fellow old-timers here, I was surprised that Joe Cribbs wasn't among the former Bills rookies who won a POW award. I can't recall a first-year Bills player with a bigger impact than Cribbs -- 12 TDs his rookie year.
His instincts are very impressive for a rookie, especially a DE. You could see it in college and it's fantastic to see that the NFL isn't too big or too fast for him. He got dinged by some scouts/pundits/teams for his "clean up" sacks in college, but really that was him playing smart football. He doesn't fly up field and take himself out of the plays. He goes outside shoulder and reads the QB, he's a great compliment to Hughes on the other side.. He'll never have the bend like Von Miller or Reggie White, but he doesn't need it to have a huge impact.
His run D is super impressive as well. He can play any down and you aren't worried that he'll be exploited. I saw a clip from @yardsperpass where he sniffed out a screen pass and forced an incompletion. The kid is playing at a level I would have been thrilled with at this time next year. Great work by the Bills scouts and front office.

How is she worse than any of the others that call games? They all use the same cliches and generally say nothing
Exactly. These crews do college football and NFL if not other sports as well.
For the money that is made by the NFL, they really should have NFL only announcers that bring more to the table. Otherwise we get decent play by play, some basic info (College, former teams, etc) and not much else. -
My only issue with Beth, and a lot of other announcers, is they don't bring a whole lot extra to the game. There isn't a ton of, "I watched some film and saw this from the defense, let's see if they can slow down the pass game with it." or whatever else, ala Romo. Granted Romo is top tier, so that's a high bar, but it would be nice if more announcers could do that. Beth and most announcers are just, this happened, that happened, good play, some excitement, but not much in depth stuff. That's probably good for a lot of fans, but for people with more knowledge of the game, they aren't adding a lot to the broadcast.
At least she isn't either of the Sunday night guys. They are both ***** terrible. Al Michaels is like a ***** old Madden, half his comments are super vague and 2 minutes late. Collinsworth is just a knob slobber with almost no objectify. Everything is great or grand for one guy and he makes excuses for everything. He is terrible.
The state of NFL announcing is pretty blah.

Got skrewball one time on vacation while looking for something new to try. I didn't realize it was peanut butter flavor until the guy at the register said he really likes the stuff and it's even better mixed with some other liquor to make PBJ shots. At that point I didn't want to be a dick and say peanut butter flavored whiskey sounds ***** terrible, so I got it.
I should have been a dick, stuff is not for me.

So I'm curious: since the vaccine doesn't prevent infection and just reduces symptoms/makes it harder to contract, and since vaccinated players face fewer restrictions than unvaccinated players, AND since the NFL has stated that if an unvaccinated player causes an outbreak, it will cause his team to forfeit because the league isn't adding an extra week...what happens if a vaccinated player causes an outbreak? Seems like this could be an actual concern.
Definitely a concern. I saw somewhere that the NFL was going to reevaluate how often they were going to test vaccinated players, it was once a week. They should probably just test everyone everyday to make it even and be extra cautious.

This list is pretty terrible.
#14 might be the most ridiculous. It's just Mahomes rolling out, stepping up, and throwing to a wide open Kelce.
Even Barkley's is kinda weak. A nice throw and catch, but this list is littered with deep throws to guys that are pretty open, that doesn't do it for me.
1 and 2 are a toss up, can't argue too much.

You're privy to the conversations, or lack there of, that Star and the bills have had this off-season?
You're also familiar with Star's current physical condition?
Diggs skipped the first Ota and apparently was up until 3am on twitch, better cut him too.

Five pages and not a single mention of the article a month ago about him working on his speed and quickness?
Quotehas completely dominated the offseason,” Hicks says. “He’s so much faster, so much more explosive. He’s got all the shakes. He’s got all the agilities. He’s got all of the jukes. But he didn’t have the burst. He was lacking that.”
Not anymore.
Four days a week, two hours a day at PER4ORM, they hit the lab. On Mondays, they’ll drive the sled to feed explosion. Throughout the week, Singletary masters every type of cut imaginable: the sweep cut, jump cut, skinny cut and hesi-burst. The emphasis, always, is to get north and south so every drill is timed. On Thursdays, they’ll fine-tune “back-end speed.” That is, Hicks taught Singletary how to run because, frankly, Hicks says Singletary never was before. His mechanics were shot.

If he's adding burst and strength, only poor blocking should hold him back. I think the RB room has a lot of potential, but it's hard to ignore the poor production last year.

Awesome breakdown. Those guys do great work.
You can see that there is a lot more (obviously) to the narrative that he had a bunch of coverage sacks. When I first heard that, I thought of a guy that maybe lucked into a number of sacks, but the breakdown shows he's got good awareness and he's doing a lot more than just picking up coverage/effort sacks. For arguments sake, you can label them that, but I think there's a lot more to what he's doing than just giving effort. He's doing a good job of playing the run, reading the QB's movement, and overall doing his 1/11th, which you know this staff preaches.
I wonder how much they talked to him about his poor pro day. How much was he training for those drills versus working on actual football drills? I remember one of the Embedded episodes, they showed Beane hoping Gabe Davis would run a slow 40 so his draft stock would drop, I wonder if they secretly hoped something similar would happen with Greg. He did have the number one 10 yard split of the draft class and on the team, so he's got burst.

I don't like to make assumptions based on highlights, but there is no way in hell Stevenson doesn't make the 53 after seeing those highlights.
He is so quick and fast, but much more importantly has great vision and awareness. I can't believe he lasted to the 6th round.

Asked if he could see himself in Buffalo for a while, Diggs, who has three years left on his contract, said, “Define ‘a while,’ because hopefully it’s a long time.”
How about the rest of his career?
“That sounds better,” Diggs said. “Hopefully.”
The feeling is mutual.

Not a full game, but I had the Jeff tuel int TD ruined by the scrolling bar. I stream so am a little bit behind during games. I usually have a smaller TV showing red zone or another game. I usually pause the second TV for a minute so it's not behind, but sometimes I flip around and don't do that.
Bills were at the door step, I glance at the other TV, see TD, we'll that's disappointing but sweet, then chiefs TD, wtf... Oh mother f&$#.
Was quite the range of emotions. I use a cardboard box to cover the bottom part of the TV now.

That hat is amazing.
"I don't think it takes a whole lot" is a special level of stupid.
The link keeps changing, weird.

I think Mckenzie is one thing Daboll is going to unwrap this game. I'm looking for about 5 variations of the McKittrick jet sweep
I hope so. I thought the Ravens game was a perfect time for some Mckenzie action, get the LB's moving and get some easy yards across the middle with Diggs. Alas, it did not happen, so we'll see.

I saw the stat about their red zone efficiency earlier and it was about scoring, not TDs.
Just looked up their efficiency for TDs only.
71% home
47% away
The away number is pretty bad.
https://www.teamrankings.com/nfl/stat/red-zone-scoring-pct
Below average on the year and not much better the last 3.
I think they'll get some yards but I don't think they'll score enough to keep up.

Bless their hearts going through that pile of *****.
Thank you for the recap, I can't spend 50 minutes of my life reliving that "performance."
