Actually someone created a list of famous sports pukers. The Bills have three on the list of 15. Jim Kelly puked before every football game and even basketball games in HS. It became a tradition… and his teammates per him looked at it as a good luck thing. London Fletcher also made the list as did #14 on the list who is none other than Cole Beasley. https://www.thesportster.com/entertainment/top-15-athletes-who-literally-get-sick-before-games/ I think ole Jimbo and London did alright for themselves and as for Cole .. maybe that is why he gets so wide open .. what DB wants stanky puke breath nearby … lol Others on the list include Bill Russell, Donovan McNabb, and Lionel Messi - which makes his name ironic. Josh should work on what holds him back but the fact that he gets overly excited is not a deal breaker. I think one of the things that gives me such confidence in Josh is he actively looks for his weaknesses and tries to mitigate them while understanding that you need to balance it with not suppressing the strengths. In listening to his teammates they feed off of his excitement.. mitigate it without killing the good parts of it. He will get there because he WANTS it soooo bad. Go Bills!

Alualu is their starting NT ... and the starting DE Tuitt is on IR .. hoping that TJ Watt is rusty given his lack of practice .. mix it all together and Josh should have time to throw.

Nice little interview with highlights by Buffalo Plus re: Tre's time in high school as the starting quarterback of his team. Jordan Poyer's reactions to the videos is great as well.

Views from the Opposition City - week 1 Pittsburgh

Steelerswire look at the defensive starters for the Steelers for week 1. Big loss for them as Stephon Tuitt DE was placed on IR. This should help our OL keep Josh clean. https://steelerswire.usatoday.com/lists/steelers-bills-nfl-week-1-starting-defense-tj-watt-joe-schobert/ -
Like him Josh tries to run over people, raw, winner. Referenced Daboll was his QB coach at the Jets would want Josh to stop trying to run over people. Feels other than height, Josh is a bit more polished and more careful with turnovers. Closest to old school .. wins games whatever is called for. If want to watch the interview starts at 42:30 goes to 45:50. having been around back in the Favre days .. I can definitely see it..

I edited this to reflect that the seeds are based on twitter followers who associate with the team .. this is not a Fox issue it is an issue with me not reading. There is some interesting exchanges on fanbases, but overall a very bad post from me. My apologies. Anyway Go Bills! https://twitter.com/NFLonFOX/

Buffalo Bills 2021 practice squad players
CorkScrewHill replied to HOUSE's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Dean Marlowe was just cut by the Lions .. I could see Beane adding him to the PS https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2021/09/01/lions-cut-darren-fells-dean-marlowe/ only 1 safety on the PS .. and I think McBeanevlikes their former players from Carolina .. at least that is the rumor -
Bills open practice 9/1 and media
CorkScrewHill replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
The really interesting thing to me is with all of these QBs wanting input and trying to force the HC / GM hands, Josh I think makes recommendations as to people he would like to see the team look at, but isn't trying to dictate final personnel decisions. At lest that is the way it appears. I always thought Aaron griping about his need for better teammates must really rub his actual teammates the wrong way. The Hollister decision seems to indicate that at least. -

Buffalo Bills 2021 practice squad players
CorkScrewHill replied to HOUSE's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I think both Fromm and Webb make the Bills PS. I also have a hard time thinking Gentry doesn't find his way on instead of Simms. LB we are a little heavy on the main roster so thinking Lee is the other one from your list left off for Fromm. I agree there will be some we want to keep that are poached for better opportunities to move onto an active roster or PS with higher call-up potential and we will poach a few from other teams. Too many options to guess. If we could get that TE from GB .. just to tick off Rodgers .. that would be sweet. Nick McCloud was claimed by Bengals per WGR 550. No other Buffalo Bill waivers picked up. -
John "Smoke" Brown cut by the Raiders .. practice squad .. please oh please. Requested his release.

Bills cuts to get to 53 [final info in the OP]
CorkScrewHill replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I mentioned this yesterday .. John "Smoke" Brown a cut candidate with the Raiders .. now cut. Requested to be released and release was granted. Practice Squad!!!! -
Johnny Hekker restructures his contract .. so while he had a monster camp it appears Bojorquez will be looking elsewhere for his next gig. I would be shocked if he were not on an opening day roster. https://www.turfshowtimes.com/2021/8/31/22647278/rams-johnny-hekker-final-roster-corey-bojorquez-mcvay

Conversation at 3:45 am Beane: “what are you wearing Jake Fromm” Jake:“khakis” Beane: “great you are getting on a flight to Ny .. you are a Jet” Jake: “That sounds hideous” Beane: “well yeah .. it’s the Jets” -
Greedy Williams and his brother from the Giants were also from there. https://www.espn.com/blog/buffalo-bills/post/_/id/36232/buffalo-bills-marquez-stevenson-tredavious-whites-path-from-shreveport-to-buffalo?platform=amp&__twitter_impression=truem It is really sad, yet inspirational, how they rose above the conditions in which they lived.

Elijah Holyfield the RB for Philadelphia was cut. He is the son of of Evander Holyfield … may want to reconsider that move Picture of Evander talking with Howie Roseman

Raiders announcers just stated that John Brown is on the roster bubble for the Raiders .. while Zay Jones is safe … nuts. Nice Practice Squad addition if he becomes available.

TY Hilton is hurt with neck injury ... out several weeks. some of our competitors with some injury issues. Sad .. but … better than us. -

He has been amazing but a couple of caveats 1) it’s preseason 2) to the best of my knowledge I have not seen any moves .. just bull rush and use his long arms and leverage. Good things to use but he will have to develop some other attack moves to become a constant threat. Beane found a freak athlete who looks to be a DROY candidate but the staff has work to do to get him to his potential.
