ColoradoBills

Nothing official that I have heard. It's one of the reasons I'm logged in early today.

You know that last bit of data makes me think there is a change of thought at OBD. There is some mounting evidence that this is indeed a new era for the team. Seems to be a change in a lot of the old "Beane and McDermott" methods. Running more. Pass distributions. Coleman (a rookie) with a lion share of reps and targets. Lots of younger players instead of old "used up" vets. Even things such as only 2 captains, seem there is a concerted effort to try something different. The only thing I still don't like is the special teams. I'll say it again, they need to keep things simple. Don't try to win on special teams, just make sure you don't lose because of them.

Big name orchestra playing snippets of all the NFL music over the decades. Network theme music, NFL Films music, "Alcoa fantastic finishes and you make the call" starting music. All this while the big screen shows plays and scenes accordingly. Maybe have female and male dancers dressed in all the NFL uniform colors. Celebrate football at its biggest show.

True, but I did live down there for 4 years. It's looking like this week has a good chance of afternoon showers (monsoon season). That cools thing down. That's my hope.

Josh is going to be Josh. That's part of his DNA that us fans have to live with. That being said, he has to tough it out Thursday, get the win, and then have a cool 11 days before the Titans at home Monday night.

Currently the weather is showing rain in the afternoon all the way until game time. Clouds with rain should cool the stadium down vs having it blazing sun all afternoon. Game time temperature of 84 degrees. Hot and muggy no doubt but the players should be okay.

So true about the penalties. 1st games can get sloppy so let's hope they get a handle on the OL penalties. NFL players have been playing football since peewee. They know the rules. It's mostly on them. The only real retribution coaches have is benching players who are penalized too much and that seldom happens.

They seemed to hold Samuel back some due to the toe. Hope he is 100% for Thursday. We saw some of what the Bills O was doing with Curtis in camp. Lining him up all over the place and a lot of motion with the O. I'm expecting more of that on Thursday if he's healthy. Right now, they got Cook (who played well as the RB1), Johnson (who blocks well) and Davis (who we are hoping he can eventually do both). I'm liking the RB room.

Absolutely. It's going to be interesting to see how this progresses. As for JA running. We all hold our breathe every time he runs but that's just who he is. He's all in, all the time.

Let's see how things progress with specific game planning. Something I thought Dorsey didn't do at all. Miami has tape on Coleman, Shakir and Cook. Maybe that gives Kincaid, Samuel and Davis an initial leg up for Thursday.

Easy BigAl you're going to make some posters heads explode! LOL.

What a fun Sunday. Let's end the first week with a 9ers win and go to Miami Thursday!

That was some old-fashioned punch them in the mouth football right there.

WOW. What running.

This field has too much beads in it. Guys are slipping on them all over the place.

Not so good.

Well, it's up to Goff now. Actually, it's a fun game to watch. I'm so glad football is back!

The crazy thing is the browns have $50M in cap space right now. Even when they roll that over into next year, they are $37M OVER the cap. Not counting $38M in void contracts.

I totally believe that.

I didn't think they were terrible at all. It was a tale of 2 halves.

First game as DC for Babich and a lot of new faces coupled with Taron going down early so I will give the D a wash for the day. Need to tighten things up for Thursday. Brady and the O did well for the 1st game. I expect them to unveil more stuff Thursday. Special Teams are just bi-polar in my opinion. It just seems Smiley overthinks way too many things. KISS.

grass.

...and he's picked. Cleveland fans have to be just beat down into dust.

Fully guaranteed. LOL.
