    With the velocity that Allen throws, how are receivers have done catching in cold weather, and the expected temps, the WR's should be living outside with the jugs machines cranked up to 11 from now until Saturday.

     

    I am way less concerned about practicing outside for the other position groups

    ...and maybe the punter.

  2. I'd like to see more plays in rhythm even if they're short passing plays.  The QB improv off a broken play is exciting but it also indicates that the initial play call was ill-timed, easily read, or took too long to set up.   When the Bills move the ball predominantly on improv heroics, Daboll in not calling a good game and it usually seems to be accompanied with forced bullet passes and ignoring the easy 5-7 yards in the short passing game.  Singletary isn't Thurman or Marshall Faulk, but he's looking pretty good here as of late.

    I dont like how Florio states his opinion here as if it were fact.  Stating that the wonderlic is irrelevant.  That's a stupid statement in itself.

     

    There's 32 teams and lots of personnel on each team.  How can he possibly know how it is used.  

     

    I disagree that it is irrelevant.  But if teams use it wrongly, that's better for the teams that use it correctly.  I think what he NFL is after here, is (1) stopping the scores from leaking and (2) possible liability later, for leaked scores.  Especially if there are statements regarding confidentiality that the nfl makes to the test takers.

    Agree.  You want more information about a player - not less.  The whole combine is about JUDGING a player.  You can dismiss data, but you can't assess it if you don't collect it.  Nothing sacred about the Wonderlic as a test vehicle, but you do want to scale cognitive abilities as you would physical abilities IMO.  Separately, I would think interviews contain questions that can be used to look for psychological traits.  Companies do this.

    Not a bad thought, although if he is 100% by Sunday, I think he starts the game.  He has not gotten a lot of reps, so if he's going to be the starting left guard in the playoffs, he needs to get more reps and continue to develop chemistry with the rest of the line.  Also, as someone astutely pointed out above, the Bills may want to see what they have in Bates if they are considering moving on from Feliciano after the season to save on cap and/or because Feliciano's performance has declined (despite him being a good dude).

    If he's 95% or so I'd agree to play him for a quarter or so.

    Thanks - this was the info I was looking for - and it's good news.  I'd say he's between questionable and probable for the Jests game on Sunday and back for the playoffs for sure.  It will be interesting to see if he is reinserted as the starter, or if the injury costs him the spot.  Feliciano and Ford were also back from COVID list prior to yesterday's agme, so now we are only down Ike at guard.  Could be a lot worse.

    I'd rest him against the Jets then start him for the playoffs.

    No offense to all You good posters, but none of the above explanations make any sense. 
     

    Bates doesn’t miraculously make the other guys better. Cody Ford has been playing decently lately. There is more too what happened today.
     

    Even when Brown was at LT today, they were looking great at every position. A few weeks ago Darryl Williams didn’t even move at the snap— now he is playing great at both guard and tackle? 
     

    Morse has been getting blown off the ball at the snap, and suddenly held his own today. 
     

    i have no idea what happened, except all 5 guys played out of their minds today. 

    Maybe someone pulled rank on the O-line coach and said "step aside for awhile'. Maybe Pegula had enough and told Sean and Daboll to  get involved.....
