We tried to sign him off the Broncos practice squad a few weeks ago and the broncos chose to promote him to keep from losing him. Then they waived him him on Monday and the Bills picked him up off waivers.

That makes sense. Thanks.

I wondered the same thing. I know there is still the whole 2nd half to play. But If Barkley and the offense keep playing like this all game, do you almost have to ride with him next game (after their Bye week) even though Allen will be ready? or do you go back to Allen no matter what? With the way the offense has played this year, I would find it hard to bench Barkley, even with really wanting to get Allen back on the field ASAP. I mean, It’s not like Allen has no doubt earned the starting job thus far.

Question - why was there a 10 second runoff on the clock after that review? I know there is a 10secomd runoff with an injury or penalty under 2 minutes. But why was there one after that play?

Has to be like a weight lifted off McCoy’s shoulders. And the whole offense, really.

Shady! TD #2 today!

Come on offense!

Think he’s down just shy there. Hope they give it to Shady again though, and Let him get the TD.

What a spin move!

Called it! I literally just said to my buddy that a turnover was coming before the snap. Anyone want the lottery numbers? lol

Come on defense. Lets get the Jets offense off the field.

Wtf is going on today on offense?! Whatever is happening, I like it! lol

Nice pass for the 1st down.

Barkley, Zay and Foster have themselves a bit of chemistry to start this game.

What a start today! Oh, and Jordan Phillips has been a heck of a waiver wire pickup.

My guess is that they’ll announce they are going back to royal blue for the 2020 season (their 50th anniversary season). I think Ted Black kind of hinted at it (years back, before he was fired). I know they have something planned for that season, and it would definitely make sense if they went back to the royal blue as a nod to their heritage.

Clearing out some of that log jam at D in Rochester, I see.

Some People should really read the entire interview (not just the headline) before commenting on what Beane said.

There were a couple reasons, I think. At least from what I’ve read. They have a new owner (Tom Dundon). He is VERY involved in the day to day decisions (and is even included in roster decision making from what has been written/said). He was really gung-ho about making changes - everywhere from the front office to the coaching staff to the roster. Dundon felt the team needed a culture change since they have the longest playoff drought in the NHL. Skinner was one of their longest tenured players. So I think they targeted him as a guy to move. Plus their new coach (who was their asst. coach for years) was rumored to not be the biggest Jeff Skinner fan. He fired their long tenured GM (Ron Francis) who was overly cautious about making moves (hardly ever made a trade) and hired the only guy he could find to take the job for what Dundon was willing to pay (Don Waddell). So that helped open up the ability to make moves. What really helped buffalo is that Skinner had a full no movement clause. He is from the Toronto area and Supposedly was only willing to come to a couple of teams (mainly buffalo and Toronto). So we got him cheaper than if there was an open bidding war.

Good for him. I hope he does well.

That’s terrible. People are so mean. I legit feel bad for Nate. I honestly didn’t think he was any worse on Sunday than any other QB we’ve trotted on the field this season. But the narrative on him is already written, and it’s like a gang mentality at this point - just pile on. There were a lot bigger targets for criticism from sunday’s game IMO.
