  1. Starting DL (and team captain) and long-snapper and a PS player. A 4th player has now also tested positive though he has not been identified. Not great for the league but definitely helpful for the Steelers and Bills. https://www.tennessean.com/story/sports/nfl/titans/2020/09/29/titans-covid-19-who-tested-positive-daquan-jones-beau-brinkley/3579461001/
  2. ProFootballTalk suggested the following .. and it makes a lot of sense .. "There’s a fairly easy schedule fix, if the game is postponed. The Titans have a Week Seven bye, the Steelers play the Ravens in Week Seven, and the Steelers and Ravens have Week Eight byes. So the NFL could move Steelers-Titans to Week Seven and Steelers-Ravens to Week Eight, with Baltimore’s bye coming in Week Seven." So Tennessee would get a bye this week which means we would play them off the bye. The three players and the other staff would not be available for the Bills game as these are confirmed cases not potential contact cases.
  3. Quote from last the DB “And here is Johnson's take: "I was post middle. I was coming from the weak side. I think I could have run over and just plucked it, but for some reason, I stopped because thought it was going to a tip. It was a push off. I tried to wrestle with him all the way from the ground and they gave me the ball."” wrestler all the way to the ground (e.g. Kroft had it) .. and the refs “gave it to me” . Given tie goes to receiver ... bad call! https://buffalonews.com/sports/bills/nfl-explains-why-controversial-interception-was-not-overturned/article_3144b798-00fc-11eb-b691-d383bab887e8.html
  4. I loved this statement “Allen, frankly, is a killer. He exudes confidence. He plays with a fearlessness that makes teammates want to rally around him. He’s tougher than quantum physics” - that’s my quarterback
  5. https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2020/09/28/josh-allen-buffalo-bills-nfl-week-3-fmia-peter-king/ Some nice tidbits re how Josh is happy they won but pissed that they squandered the big lead and break down of some key plays. not a Peter King fan myself but it is a good read
  6. This is not a slam on the front office .. I am personally very surprised he is playing so well. He seemed like a good enough kid .. so good luck to him. https://www.cleveland.com/browns/2020/09/why-wyatt-teller-is-the-browns-offensive-mvp-gotta-watch-the-tape-an-orange-and-brown-talk-special-edition.html
  7. Nothing official, but with Milano fully practicing yesterday I would think he plays unless he has a set back.
  8. https://thedraftnetwork.com/articles/josh-allen-deep-ball-analysis-2020-bills I found it interesting .. if you do great .. if not just skip and spare me the "did we really need another Josh Allen thread" comment.
  9. Love you guys and your ability to read things into what others type .. never said I was expecting him to be an all-pro, or a starter or even a solid back-up yet. I was literally surprised he was on the field as I did not see him. My comment about the light turning on was based on all the injuries we are seeing league-wide. But never mind what I was trying to communicate .. just go for the why isn't he in the Pro Bowl, or heck the Hall of Fame. Aussie Joe I quoted you but there were several of the same ilk. It might be a good idea if this is a Buffalo Bills community to you know act like a community.
  10. Did anyone else see him? I am wondering if they only played him during the blackout as I cannot recall him being on the field. He had no stats so there is that. I guess at least he got on the field, but I hope the light turns on soon for him. Not bashing him .. just hope he makes an impact as I have no doubt we will need our depth players at some point on the line.
  11. Joe Noteboom starting Guard will be out per Sean McVay https://theramswire.usatoday.com/2020/09/21/rams-cam-akers-noteboom-brown-injury-update/
  12. 2 games in, but those that bet on him being MVP have to feel a little good.. and PFF will have to work overtime to spin this as another bad Josh outing. https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/stats/ Good times indeed.
  13. He is still junk until he passes for 400 yards in a game .. yikes I mean 500 yards in a game
  14. Deon Lacey and Andre Smith will be active .. didn't see it listed already. If it was sorry
  15. I think the correct answer is this Beavis is a troll. Edmunds chosen for first pro bowl before he could legally drink and when he is on the field (which needs to be more) Milano just makes plays. You on the other hand make senseless posts to frustrate this fine board. So in conclusion Edmunds and Milano very good LBers who will be missed and you are an annoying, nonsensical troll
  16. I was watching another game and the same basic thing happened. The thing is with Josh it is a narrative and so as soon as people see one they throw it up on youtube. All quarterbacks every week have bad plays. The idea is to have significantly more good plays than bad. Mission accomplished.
  17. 31 other teams, if they knew what Mahomes would become, would have given the farm to move up to number 1 to get him. They didn’t which tells you something. Further back in 2017 some experts didn’t even have Mahomes in the first round. Now it is obvious .. then not so much.
  18. Who was ahead of him on their board .. does anyone know? What led to this conclusion.. seriously interested.
  19. It is a charitable clothing line that Dion is actively involved with. https://26shirts.com/collections/shnow-gear
  20. No big surprises ... loved the Shnow man being made a captain https://www.buffalobills.com/news/bills-elect-these-team-captains-for-the-2020-season
  21. https://www.newyorkjets.com/team/depth-chart they are also starting 5 new OL this has some insights from a Jets reporter https://www.newyorkjets.com/news/jets-2020-unofficial-depth-chart
  22. Three really solid players including one who is one of the top few in his position. Obviously in hindsight not getting Mahomes hurts, but it is interesting to see how the draft was viewed by twobillsdrive at the time. In general an excellent and foundational draft looking back.
