I think they should count. I've got three on my list.

Anybody know how reliable he is in pass pro or as a blocker?

I think they're the kind of team that's going to keep getting better as the season goes on. If they maintained the level of focus, speed and especially decisiveness they're showing tonight, their first playoff game would be....... at home? 😮

That's really interesting, if true. I loved Solomon Wilcots; he was one of the very best in the business before it became a shouting contest. Genuinely smart guy.

Damnnit. I'm going to have a Top 20 list by Monday.

Thought about that but didn't want to get too pedantic for a casual internet Top 10. We're not playing for money so I can live with some imperfections.

Taylor Rapp is Chinese? Well, that one flew right over my head....

Hey, this is a family board! P.S. I've always wondered, is your avatar C Bukowski?

Was watching this conversation in the Shoutbox and thought it was pretty interesting. The Shoutbox discussion was Top 5 albums but I cannot get my list down anywhere close to that so I'm going with Top 10. Exiled on Main St Songs in the Key of Life Waiting for Columbus Stadium Arcadium Europe '72 The White Album Electric Ladyland Physical Graffiti Bltches Brew Goodbye Yellow Brick Road It's Alive What do y'all got?

I bet less than 10% of this community was mad he was let go.

C'mon man, that's a full crock of it.

Yeah, that was the first bad outing I've seen from him. Was actually a little surprised to see him starting. I guess they were worried about sacrificing too many points early in the season so they pushed him a little too hard?

"This is going to hurt me more than it hurts you"....

I am sooooo going to get you at a TBD tailgate.

I'd even extend that to say that's it's also fun to get knocked on your own ass occasionally.

I've played with and against some former NFL players and I don't think most people have a true grasp of just how unbelievably fast these guys are. I've got (had) speed and quicks that few people could match, but these guys are from another planet. Even when I was younger, I occasionally got clowned in practice by a retired NFL corner. He was almost 50 at the time.

There was people in the game thread complaining about the Bills being flat and not ready to play. Both teams were bringing all of it in that game.

I'm not sure it gets the adrenaline up; I'd guess it's more because the adrenaline is already up and you just gotta hit something. Different guys deal with it different ways. I've seen guys cry, puke, smoke ganja, destroy furniture, meditate, whatever... Although I have no explanation for John Henderson.

Actually I wasn't commenting on your football opinion; just observing the fact that you feel the need to tell everybody else that their opinions are not worth reading. Keep up the great work.

Mike McCarthy's intelligence and courage both resemble that of a chicken. McDermott's do not. Must be nice to look down on all the peons while you're dispensing your particular brand of wisdom.

They've really got to be careful of leaning on him too much with DQ Jones out. He was on the field Sunday more than I have ever seen him and if he starts getting nicked up, his play is going to suffer.

'Preciate the input. I watched whatever film I could find right after the Bills drafted him and I could not find a single instance of him shying away from contact or being a tentative tackler. He wasn't Antoine Winfield by any means but from what I saw he was willing to put his face in the fan any time the situation called for it. The only real knock I had on him was his propensity to play too much with his hands and not enough with his feet. That being said, it was just film clips as opposed to watching him every week and knowing what you're seeing, which I get the sense that you clearly do. I didn't give much credence to the draftniks who seemed to be looking for nits to pick, but fwiw, I have a little more faith in your eyes so I'll buy what you're selling. I'm glad he has become a more physically aggressive as a pro but am still concerned with his habit of relying too much on his hands; if he can focus more on keeping his feet moving through routes, I think/hope he'll be OK eventually.

That combination of smooth and speed is something to watch sometimes. He gets up and down as fast and accurately as anybody I've ever seen. I'm going to start calling him Neo, because he is The One.

Actually he threw that guy by the facemask into another Rams DE and then stiff-armed Donald off of him. I'm pretty sure that the DE he threw the "facemaskee" into was actually Leonard Floyd
