In Summary

Barring a tragic collapse in the remaining regular season games and a bad 1st round playoff exit, Dorsey is completely safe.

Yes. Odd post-game coverage plus the app drops my podcasts and I have to restart often. Hot garbage.

Bodies will struggle to last 18 games plus playoffs. It'll shorten careers. Would need to consider the 60 players and two in-season byes.

We will then set the edge as none have ever done before.

I have no trouble calling Dawkins out for bad plays or how a particular matchup was unfavorable. I just don't buy into this "move him to guard" noise as if he's not fit for the LT position. It's possible that if he's the best O-lineman on the Bills, he doesn't have someone pushing him. The Bills need to decide on scheme and their preferred O-lineman body type. They may also be obsessed with positional versatility. The selection and handling of Ford and Teller was interesting. Ford was a slow-footed tackle with a 6.36 RAS was taken in the 2nd. Teller, strong as an ox and taken in the 5th with an 8.8 RAS, apparently wasn't a good fit for their scheme (??). Dawkins isn't a problem to me, it's the Bills' changing run philosophy and talent assessment of the OL. I'm hopeful they can do for the interior OL what they did with the interior DL. Arguably you get a guard next to Dawkins that is above average in both run and pass blocking (thinking of Reuben Brown / Incognito) and you now have a strong side of the line. Dawkins then looks like an All-star. I'd be interested to hear what someone who was OL football savvy had to say about the what the Bills need on the left side vs the right side.

Media aren't people. I'd take Boston over NYC.

The organization has been overly comfortable with Allen being their running game.

WGR is unlistenable on that point. Chewing up clock with the run while extending a lead on a team that can't score quickly is a beautiful thing. Keeps your defense fresh. It's got to be a viable option.

Agree. This is a nothing Burger with blue cheese dressing on it.

Good one Tremaine

Loved the RB usage on that drive.

Not on this thread. Love the D-Dawk.

This shows why Dawkins bashing is ridiculous.

Close anyway

Boettger needs to be available.

When Collinsworth speaks hit mute for 13 seconds.

People rightly expect RBs to contribute their rookie year. Cook will be a year 2 guy.

It's my new daily listen. No bombast. More about analysis than personal attacks. Does good crossover segments.

3rd round of the 2023 draft.

Interesting. Kinda looks that way.

Like a rugby maul.

That's 5 fewer players that could get injured practicing. Win.

Maybe he will. A cornered rat fights aggressively. Otherwise, just more garbage for ESPN to cover.

...plus, I'm not convinced that having had off-season back surgery, he's going to be 100% this year.

Cover1 is out with some good video breakdown of the D. Unfortunately, I didn't see them break down the Jets running TD. Not sure how the middle got so open (???). Looked like good Jets blocking. I don't think there is any fundamental problem with the D. More of a drop in talent and athleticism with the safety and LB depth. Jets loss was on the offense.
