[Week 1 - Cardinals at Bills 2nd Half Thread]

This is really going to come down to a Hail Mary attempt from Murray on the last play, isn't it?

I f'n HATE Coach Smiley

Now is where I lean into the run game a bit. Out physical the Cards and use some clock 

[Week 1 - Cardinals at Bills 2nd Half Thread]

Shakir reminds me of Dave Meggett when running in the secondary. Just a human ping pong ball.

As long as Groot doesn't get his yearly foot/ankle injuries...he is going to be a PROBLEM for OLs this year.

Now can the defense make a play? 

They actually DID...whoa!

[Week 1 - Cardinals at Bills 2nd Half Thread]

Our defense is terrible. But in the true sense of complimentary football our offense sucks at standing still before the snap. Gotta get that cleaned up

Fields sucks. He is a special kind of bad 

Agreed. But it's more about how below mediocre Wilson is these days. At least Fields can make plays with his legs. That could really help an offense with a lack of playmakers.

Van demark is a surprise, wgr is guessing maybe he is ill or not feeling well.

Grable over VD is interesting. I'm excited about him

Wow Grable got a jersey ahead of Van Demark. Glad we finally have some OL depth

I think it has a lot to do with Grable being the better option at RT if needed in addition bto being able to do well at LT. RVD is strictly a LT still IMO. Position flexibility is a huge plus for Grable.

For the Cardinal game it will be 64 degrees and sunny.  Great Fall day.

 

But, winds will be 20-25 mph from the West.  We all know how our stadium handles wind.  I'm hoping the game doesn't come down to FG's.

Oh, he will be judged. Especially if he struggles while Arizona's kicker doesn't.

[Curtis Samuel.....How impactful will he be tomorrow??]

13 hours ago, Special K said:

I'm interested to see just how much Samuel can bring to this offense.

 

Will he be used all around the field? Will he be a focus of the offense or just a complimentary piece? 

 

I'm expecting big things from Kincaid and Shakir this year, but could it be Samuel in line for a breakout season?

 

I'm looking forward to finding out!!

 

Go Bills!!

I think people are going to be disappointed by his "box score numbers". He's the kind of player that brings a lot to the on field game of football, though. I expect him to be used much the way Isiah McKenzie was. 

 

I expect to see him out wide, in the slot and out of the backfield. He will take some end around plays.  And for no reason in particular, I can see him throwing a pass or two at some point this season.

"Will this be the year?"

 

Even though we're supposedly taking a step back....you know you're thinking it.

 

As long as 17 stays healthy it's a possibility IMO. Overall team health stays good and a couple lucky bounces come playoff time... anything can happen.

 

Not counting on it by any means...but hey, it could happen...

[Excluding JA, predict your impact player - Cardinals at Bills (includes a video preview of the game)]

Offense- Samuel. I think he will be deployed in a lot of various ways. 

 

Defense-Damar silences some doubters with a solid game.

[Dorian Williams’ time to shine?]

23 minutes ago, ProcessTruster said:

on first down he'll be fine, then offenses will put him in conflict like crazy, throw it on him and he will struggle and learn.  will be a rough first half season

And this is what I expect as well. I'm hoping they let him play and take his lumps early in the season so they don't have to roll with AJ Klein down the stretch (again) because Williams still lacks any experience.

[NFL 2024 Kickoff: Ravens @ Chiefs, Sept 5 - 8:20pm]

I think Baltimore wins this tonight. Something in the 21-16 range. Ravens will use Henry to control clock and shorten game down. 

[Week 1, Cards v. Bills - Predict the Score]

Week 1 is always so wonky to predict. 

 

I'm going to say Bills take it 23-16. Cook with a big day on the ground.  Defense comes up with a late stop on a Cardinal comeback attempt. Threads are started about firing McDermott and promoting Babich to HC.

[More Washington Commanders drama incoming]

Alcoholic mouth breathers? So, the guy has made a Bills tailgate or two I see.

You just can’t handle the truth. It’s a bigger picture outlook, something you just can’t grasp apparently.  Straight over your head. 

There is a difference between "your opinion" and actual truth. This squarely falls under your opinion. Starting to thing it's something you just can't grasp, clearly. If you want to talk "bigger picture" we could play that nuance game all day. But I just have this gut feeling that even when presented with actual facts you tend to believe the talking points you've been forced fed to the point where it's confused with original thought, anyway.

I think benching/releasing captains is a bad look, so I’d be surprised if role players like Von and Knox got a C.

Substitute Douglas for Oliver and that's my list as well.

Alas. Time and again. Free agent spending been proven that doesn’t lead to wins / Super Bowl victories.

need impact players

I agree, have to hit in the draft. That goes without saying. However, if they are going to spend money on free agents they need to hit on that as well. Need to stop paying top dollar for mid range guys.

I mainly shelter them from subliminal and out right toxic messages.
 

Her attitude and relationships are always about drama and hurting each other, which is consistent and persistent throughout her body of work. It Is very toxic and bound to encourage unhealthy behavior that hurts everyone involved. It’s an attitude that glorifies selfishness and places dysfunctional behavior on a pedestal, and honestly we have enough terrible social programming for both men and women without making that message mainstream. 
 

Young people, shouldn’t listen to her garbage until adults, 18. 

Weird. Because I find it toxic that a grown man with children would have such a strong emotional feeling about the relationships of a woman he's never met and has no idea about what those relationships consisted of. 

 

It's also kind of weird to me that for as much as you despise her music you seem to "know" an awful lot about what her music consists of. I think we have a closeted Swiftie over here ..
