OK, let me put it to you this way. We cut Hodgins, then due to Kumerow on IR wound up playing 2 games with Tanner Gentry. Do you think Tanner Gentry is a better WR than Hodgins, Y or N? If we had Gentry on our active roster and cut him, do you think any team files a waiver claim, Y or N? I’m not saying Hodgins is a star WR, but in the context of the talent we have on our roster we were 1 injury away from an alternative of bringing in a guy off the street who hasn’t played since 2020 or signing Tanner Gentry to the active roster. In hindsight, I kind of feel keeping Hodgins on the roster would possibly have been a better move, But, we’ll see.

Lamar Jackson leaves denver game with knee injury
Beck Water replied to BuffaloBills1998's topic in The Stadium Wall
Uh-oh….but mobile QB skeptics, please note that he was apparently sacked on the injury -
Yeah, we could use someone to “spill the tea”, But Mupp, there’s a difference between a workout and a medical…the teams may be asking to review his medical records and to give him a physical, or to review a physical and test results by a “neutral” physician …. But unless he actually works out it could be hard to see how that will translate into his speed, acceleration, ability to cut, and whether he might actually be able to contribute to a playoff push or playoffs THIS season.

Would Cole Beasley come back to Buffalo?
Beck Water replied to Warriorspikes51's topic in The Stadium Wall
And that’s an opinion, to which you are entitled. But when you start dunkin’ on a Bills player who just had 2 good games for us with “more mistakes than good plays” blah blah blah, expect to be asked to “show your work”. That’s really Weak Fan Sauce when he’s playing well for the Bills, even if you do legit think he’s a backup-grade player and we need an upgrade. (I’d like an upgrade myself) It won’t be from me today, though. I plan to sit here, appreciate the Christmas decor, quaff tasty adult beverages, and enjoy the games. -
Would Cole Beasley come back to Buffalo?
Beck Water replied to Warriorspikes51's topic in The Stadium Wall
I think I'm outta here. You like to toss around words like "organizational apologist" while being an "organizational critic" of what? The Bills somehow "failing" to "protect Cole from himself" how? By locking him in a room, deprived of internet access and cell phones? It's on the Bills to "manage" Cole's free speech decisions? Enjoy your world. It must be unique. As for the rest, we aren't going to agree - Cole's speed to run deeper routes thus his YPC and YAC - his ability to get 1D- were in decline all season, not just when he injured his ribs and for the usual healing time afterwards. I'd bet his GPS showed a decline. If he were still Cole of 2020, he'd still be here. -
If he's not even working out for teams, I think you're correct. I think it's due diligence to talk to the guy, but I hope all the PR around this isn't a distraction.

Is this just assuming that all 3 teams have made or will make him competitive offers? I know Rapoport and Schefter get fed a lot of info from agents, but this seems a bit unlikely. How can we sign the guy for this season if he isn't even working out to show he's ready to play? That would be stupid. That's not even a point I'm debating, so I don't know why you're responding to me.

I wouldn't say we "defended the run just fine" without him, but we had a couple of really bad run defense games with him. One was GB 2nd half where IMHO we expected them to pass and played accordingly. Fact does remain we had a 3 game stretch of bad run D with Edmunds in. One of them we were missing Milano N=8 with, N=3 without, so inappropriate for a t-test but still looks pretty marked difference against the pass (larger than the std deviation) Vikes game where he went out included in "with" Cheers

Jets at Minny for most of the country. https://506sports.com/ Suggestion: just start a thread near game time Problem is, I don't think most of the country will get Fish at 49ers so it might not draw the discussion. Agree it's a key game for us though. I don't get it - is Wilson the one in the lead, wearing the Hawks sweatshirt? Or is it Mike White, in which case how does it show they hate Zack Wilson? Please help the confused.

Chiefs at Bengals Game thread - 4:25 PM Kickoff
Beck Water replied to BuffaloBill's topic in The Stadium Wall
I see your point, but who would have thought the Chiefs would lose to the Colts? There are always those unexpected games.
