Not sure how we could fit a guy like this under the cap anyway. We're right up against it as it is. Would take some major finagling with the cap. Also, who knows what they would be asking for in a trade.

Quinton Spain released; signs with Bengals PS
sven233 replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
He obviously asked for his release. But there must be more to this story than we are hearing. No reason not to keep him for depth if he was OK with everything. I'm sure they probably did try and trade him, but other teams probably would rather just take a chance that he clears waivers and pay him a fraction of what his contract is. -
What is the worst loss a good Bills teams has had?
sven233 replied to C.Biscuit97's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Well, you have to start with the Super Bowls, particularly 25. But, if you;re talking just regular season, there were multiple occasions the Kelly era Bills would go to KC on a Monday night and just get spanked. Happened several times for whatever reason, but the Bills always came back and beat them in the playoffs. Hopefully history repeats itself this season if we get another crack at the Chiefs in the postseason. All good teams have a bad loss or 2 during the season. But, good trams learn from those losses and it makes it a lot hard for teams to beat you 2 or 3 times during the same season. The Bills have some holes to fill talent-wise. If they can get a couple pieces in here, and we really are as good of a team as I think we can be, a bounce here or there and the next time we face the Chiefs or Titans, it may turn out differently. -

Down 3. Chiefs get the ball. Start of the 3rd quarter What could go wrong??? HA!!!!! -
With Murphy down tonight, maybe the staff is finally figuring out what most of us fans already knew heading into the season......he's not good enough. Wish they would have realized that when they could saved saved millions of dollars on the cap before the season.

We have 2 very good LBs. Unfortunately, both have been hurt all year. Milano is great, but can never get through a season healthy. We've seen Edmunds be great in past seasons, but he was banged up early in the season and is just playing through it. You can tell he isn't right. But, he's not healthy right now and may not be all year. Unfortunately, after those 2, we have below average depth. On top of all that, our D-Line is getting abused most weeks. Our entire scheme is based on getting to the QB with 4 guys. There are times we send 6 and still don't even sniff the QB let alone getting home with 4. We're missing that big force in the middle that can tie up 2 blockers and let Oliver eat. We have old and un-athletic guys on the edge that can't get home on a regular basis. Honestly, outside of Oliver and Jefferson, we may need an entire new group of linemen. You combine a bad front 4 with a banged up LB group and you get what you're seeing on the field so far this season. This defense is missing a "game-wrecker" and I don't know where you can get one right now. I'd like to say you can get one in the draft, but that's doesn't help now. Hopefully Beane is on the phone and can find something in the next couple weeks that can spark this defense. All that said, our CBs haven't been able to all be on the field together healthy all season. We have no idea how our top 3 would actually blend together. We have issues at every level and it's being exposed. Tomorrow may be real rough on this defense as if last week wasn't bad enough. It's too bad this has to be the year it all falls apart with the offense we have. But, until they get some stud pass rushers up front and the LBs we have back to 100% healthy, I'm not sure how it is going to get better.

Le'Veon Bell signs with Kansas City

Kind of fun while it lasted. Now go get me a game wrecker on D instead! -
Fact is, Norman isn't a #1 CB and he was asked to play that role last night. He got eaten alive which, if you have followed his career, is probably what should have been expected. But, just because he is not a #1, doesn't mean he doesn't have a place on this team. AJ Brown is a tough match up for anyone. But, if Tre had been able to go last night, he would have shadowed Brown and Norman would have gotten an easier assignment and probably would have fared much better. It's all about putting players in the right spots to succeed. Norman isn't a #1 CB, but he is one of the 3 best CBs on this team. We have yet to have all of our CBs on the field healthy at 1 time. Once Levi comes back and Tre is healthy, let's slot them where they belong and see what happens then. Way too early to say Norman can't help this team.

The biggest problem with this defense is the lack of pass rush. McDermott's scheme has always relied on getting to the QB with 4, maybe 5. Right now, they are bringing 6 at times and not even sniffing the QB. The scheme is fine if you have the pieces to run it. Right now, they don't have the dogs up front to get after the QB. Add that to having your 2 top CBs and your best LB out, along with an absolute disaster of a player in Johnson trying to play slot CB, you are just asking for trouble. Just don't have the horses to run what they have the last few years. What's the answer? I don't know. But the Bills are missing 2 good CBs, better depth at LB, and a game-wrecker on the D-Line. Those just aren't guys you can go out an find on the street right now. If ZO was ready and willing, I'd take him over the other garbage we have at LB right now, though.

I;ll say this about Norman. He got abused and embarrassed. But, on the very next play he squared up and took Henry on again. Then he had great coverage to force the punt. He's a gamer for sure. Hopefully that woke him and the rest of the team up. -

Really hoping this team is pissed off at what the Covid Titans have put them through in regards to their schedule and health. I just want us to go in there and put them down hard and fast and take out every frustration we have on them. I just want to completely bury them. Something like 40-10. Not sure it will happen, but I hope this team is amped up to make it happen. -

Week 5: Bills at Titans on Tuesday Night Football
sven233 replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Yup. I have 4 guys on my team already in IR. Had 2 Bills in my starting lineup and also the Bills defense. I am just throwing crap against the wall this week hoping that a couple of my guys just go bananas and pull out a miracle.
