And an admission of statutory rape.

No they did not, and yes they did. “Ultimately, prosecutors determined it is clear the evidence does not support the filing of criminal charges and there is no path to a potential criminal conviction,” the office said in a statement. “Prosecutors can only file charges when they ethically believe they can be proven beyond a reasonable doubt.” They said point blank that they haven't filed charges because they don't believe they can get a conviction. You have to read more than the first participle of the first sentence to understand the message being relayed. The reason that the evidence does not support the filing of charges is not because the evidence is not valid, but because it won't lead to a conviction. They are extremely clear about this and to attribute their statement to a line of logic of "they don't think a crime occurred" is completely incorrect. They may or they may not, but their statement indicates nothing except their opinion of how likely they are to win a conviction. And this comment right here is why the world is in the awful state it is.

Oh yea, poor guy...🙄

100% false. Could not possibly be more wrong if it was your explicit intent.

Way to fly right off the deep-end on a terrible take when they told you exactly what they think. No need to incorrectly re-interpret.

I don't know about you, but I don't plan on going back to 7-9 strategies.

He was on pace for 12 sacks this year which would have been good enough for #10 sack leader last year - and he did that playing only 61% of snaps. I'm not worried about him slowing down any further until he actually does. The whole point of Von Miller being on this team is to be a situational player for 3-4 games of the season. He's making that $20M so he can get the one sack on the play that matter most in January. While it sucks that he's not going to be able to fulfill that role this year, it would be a minor blessing if they just held him out until the playoffs next year. He's our Kucherov without the benefit of the LTIR cap relief.

If you didn't expect this - welcome to your first season as a Bills fan. It only goes downhill from here. As soon as he went down I planned on him being out or at minimum ineffective for the rest season, so it isn't much of a shock. We've never been a team that's winning games on the back of our defense and I didn't expect that to change this year. I don't see this loss having much impact if any on our chances. The offense needs to get right and game day coaching needs to drastically improve. If those two things happen, we'll be fine. Von ha a big impact on the way our line looked early in the year, but lately it's looked like less. It's time for Boogie to step up and realize the potential he's shown.

Stevenson should go on IR and be released whenever he asks for it. Not an NFL talent. Murray will be cut for Ike Lewis will be cut for Benford if he returns That leaves Klein, Spector and Rhodes (pending Benford) as the only places on the roster to make room for a WR.

Maybe you didn't understand me. You can't upgrade your line midseason. I'm aware of the concept of trading, but it just doesn't ever happen for starting caliber OL. They're simply too valuable for a team at any stage and it takes too long to get up to speed. At absolute best you can find a bottom of the roster player who's likely going to get cut anyway and you trade a 7th round pick just to get dibs. it's not a worthwhile solution to the problem.

Lights out? Meaning they play like they're blind? They routinely give up monster plays regardless of who is on the field, and without Miller, Hyde, and Benford we'll never hit the bar of "healthy". Our defense is a liability, not a strength. If we find ourselves in a playoff situation where we have to kick the ball off with under 2 minutes to go and up by less than 3, I 100% expect to lose.

It's a non-issue. Play through the whistle. Pushing piles has been a part of football as long as I can remember. It's just getting more coverage now because of the special QB sneak rule. I remember it happening downfield my whole life.

You can't fix OL mid-season. So, you either try to improve in areas that can make up for OL deficiency (pass catchers) or do nothing and pray that what never worked before suddenly starts working now for now reason. It looks like we'll choose the latter.

I'd give him $6-$8. Why should he make as much as Milano when Milano is the far superior player?

People say this all the time, but his analytics against the pass throughout his career are terrible - less so this year, but still not "1 of 1" or anywhere approaching elite. I guess I'm just not wowed that he has athleticism that lets him be in a position to make a play if his brain never tells him when it's time to make the play. Being a "deterrent" against the pass is just not an impressive trait for me. I get what you're saying about how so few LBs have that athleticism, but give me a guy with 50% less athleticism that hits 25% harder and sheds blocks 25% better and I'll make that trade every single day and twice on Sundays. He's been in this league 5 years and we're still talking potential. He is what he is- which is a good not great LB that can sorta do one thing in a very specific defensive role. Don't ask him to tackle RBs or sack the QB because that's not his job. Just marvel at the way he drifts downfield with a TE while a player scoots by him to pick up monster yards on 3rd and long.

He's not being paid for his blocking abilities. You can always sign Lee Smith at a vet minimum contract to do that.

When you're the MLB and also praised for your otherworldly athleticism and physical gifts and are talked about like you're elite - it would be nice if you could shed a block or make an impact tackle once in a while. We defended the run just fine without him, and that's not a celebration of his backups.

I don't see many people hating Knox the player. I see a lot of people hating his contract and usage.

Maybe 10 years from now. I haven't watched him much this year, but through last year Rodgers was still plenty mobile.

Josh initiates most contact outside of the pocket. As long as he doesn't take an illegal hit, I'm really not worried about him getting significantly injured running the ball any more than I am him dropping back for a pass. He's 6-5 245. I'm more worried for the defender.

He's significantly better.

Do we want the jets to lose or would we rather they win and put more talented teams on the hot seat? They arent a threat to our postseason unless we lose. Same with the titans. I'm FAR more worried about the dolphins and even how we match up against the chargers.

He will need at minimum 1 and ideally multiple championships to get in I think unless he keeps up production for a crazy long time, like another 8 years. There are so many great WRs today that I don't know if he separates. He's at his peak right now and I don't know if I'd take him over a peak Adams, Hopkins, Julio, or even a guy like Antonio Brown in his prime. Against the stars of today like Kupp, Jefferson and Hill I don't know if you can make an argument that he's better than 4th. There's no question he's an elite player of his era, but I think he's going to have to collect some hardware to separate himself from the pack.

thanks for backing me up? exactly. was nice to see him finally get some minor involvement

I really liked what i saw from cook last night. I hope heavy usage continues for him down the stretch and we find more creative ways to involve him in the passing game.
