Sounds like an eligible candidate for our board's annual Practice Squad Da'Rick Award

@LB48 : I think the more significant question is HOW MUCH the COVID training camp will set Josh back, versus other QB's. That's where McD and Beane, and the staff around the team play a major role. We have put together an incredibly adept staff, and they plan hard for a multitude of outcomes. Think back to the Wrecks-led joke of a staff we had a few years back... There are teams out there with Wrecks-like staffs (cough... cough... J-E-S-T-S)... Those are the teams whose QB's will be set back MORE than ours by the COVID camp. Go Bills!

Spell it with me, now: L-E-O-D-I-S

Absolutely! Come on, Beaner, trade Duke for a 4th-6th rounder!

I literally only care about Bills games. It's the only point of television, IMHO.

Heck YES, I would! I've purchased two antennas for the TV I inherited (I haven't owned a television since I gave away my 13" TV/VCR combo in 2004), and NEITHER of them can pick up channel 8 in Rochester. Channel 8 is 2 miles from my house. It's in the same location as channels 10 and 13, which I get just fine... The only reason I didn't throw out the inherited TV was in the faint, and misguided hope, that someday, I could watch Bills games from my house... I should have expected this... I'm a Bills fan. Anything that can possibly--or and especially impossibly--go wrong, can, and will. Inevitable.

That was on Allen; true. Daboll set it up well, actually. How the heck do two Houston defenders bit on DiMarco? That's great! Josh should have found somebody else open. Therein was the flaw in the play.

I vote daily, @YoloinOhio !

Not exactly. Splitting the FB out wide is designed to force the defense to tip it's hand, showing the QB which coverage it will be in for that play. In chess, it is sacrificing a pawn to get a shot at the queen.

They found the path that lake effect snowsqualls take into the stadium... Congratulations, Buffalo meteorologists!

Oh, Hai, Greggggggggg-O, I heard that your safeties to a lot of really good "things", but my question to you is: can they also do really good "stuff"?

This wins the award for the most true statement in all media, circa 2020. Congratulations, @Over 29 years of fanhood

My fave part of this: Diggs rolls up in a Ramones tee. That's tight!

I guess I could see the former, but I suspect the latter, as it's all too common ?‍♂️

Was I the only person who read the following, and nearly barfed at another NFL pundit who knows literally the inverse of anything substantial on the Buffalo Bills? "Moss is a similarly slashing runner" Moss is Thunder. Singletary us lightning. It's not like that's a novel concept, among catch-phrases for NFL RB's... lazy journalism at it's finest. I guess I'll take lazy journalism, though, if it at least highlights the Bills. Can't win them all, right ?

That's like saying, "Hey, I have a bee allergy... I'll sign up to be a beekeeper..." Brilliant!

I meant it more in the "better than" sense of the symbol.

My take, from this: Ed Oliver > Marcel Dareus. Enough said.

Glad to see OUR staff being organized, prepared, and detail-oriented. Imagine how Wrecks' discombobulated crew would have handled COVID... I don't even want to think about it; I'm just thankful we have McBeane in charge. Side-note: Even The Hoodie is behind the 8-ball on this... Bills fans should be licking their chops. The tide is turning in the East, and WE are ready to take the division by the jugular!

@bmur66 Well, if it puts butts in the seats... Wait... There won't be any butts in the Vegas seats... Nix (non-Buddy-version) that argument... I'm done, LOL.

Yup: buy low / sell high. This is what wise investors do. When the street value of a business is low, but they have good potential, that's when the smart investors swoop in. Good on Pegs for playing this the right way. Reading through this article, I noticed an interesting tidbit: "Those sales provided Pegula with the cash he then used to buy the Sabres and the Bills and build the HarborCenter hotel and ice rink complex next to KeyBank Center, among other ventures that also include a country music recording studio." So T&K are Country Music fans? That's cool. Love me some George Jones. I figure, as Bills fans, we can all commiserate with drinking tons of whiskey to drown our sorrows, stemming from repeated heartbreaks, ha ha!

Except Gillette. The Pat****s have said they will allow fans. I trace that back to the fact that BelliCHEAT will do ANYTHING (including endangering the health of his zombie, fair-weather minions) to get a competitive advantage. Typical...

But... But... But I've heard, right here, on TBD, from the experts, that Star is terrible, and a waste of money. How... Oh, how can that factual stat about Star be true?

Coming from a former distance runner, here's a brief scoop on fast-twitch (a.k.a. "quick twitch") and slow-twitch muscle fibers. -Fast-Twitch muscle fibers are able to fire (i.e. react) very quickly, but you might say that they "run out of gas" more rapidly. -Slow-Twitch muscle fibers are able to fire (i.e. keep firing) for an extended period of time, before "running out of gas", but they can't fire (i.e. react) as quickly. Think of high school gym class: some kid would crush you in the 100 m sprint, but you may have been able to out-last them in the gym class mile. You had a greater proportion of slow-twitch muscle fibers; your 100 m champ had a greater proportion of fast-twitch muscle fibers. -We all start out with a mix of fast-twitch and slow-twitch muscle fibers, and BOTH can be trained. Obviously, some are more gifted one way or the other. Back to the gym class story: you (the one who lost the 100 m, but won the mile) probably hadn't done serious training, yet, but you already had more slow-twitch muscle fibers. You may have had a 60/40 split of slow-to-fast twitch muscle fibers. A good cross country coach should have seen your gym mile time, and bothered you like crazy to quit trying to play football, and instead to run cross-country (This is exactly what happened to me, in high school, so I speak from experience). Overall, the key, in training as a young athlete, is to figure out what type of muscle fiber you have a greater propensity for, and get into the sport (or sports) that require that muscle fiber type. You can always improve one fiber over the other, through direct training (i.e. Speed / heavy-lift training for fast-twitch, or cardio for slow-twitch), but why not just get into the sports where you're already going to have a competitive advantage? (As a side-note, this is what the Soviets did with their child-athletes, back in the day. Theyyyyy probably took things waaaay too far, but the idea of figuring out what type of muscle fibers child athletes had, and directing them into the sport(s) they were best suited for was actually a very good idea, in terms of competitive advantage).
