Not necessarily... They are working out players all of the time. Many of which don’t signed. The Bills brought in Darron Lee this summer and he didn’t end up with a contact

I don’t get it... he goes from not being on the injury report to not practicing for 3 straight weeks. No word on any injury.

Did he say anything about an injury?

They really penalized the Titans....

Hopefully they can fit their wheelchairs on stage

I wanted Metcalf. I didn’t think he would be the bust that some predicted. It does make you wonder whether he turns out any differently with a raw Josh Allen as his QB, as opposed to Big Russ. I think he still turns out to be ok

3 things have helped Diggs in Buffalo: 1. the overall culture built by Beane and McDermott. Laugh if you want about “culture” but this administration has always developed a good rapport/communication with players. 2. Josh Allen - a great leader with a strong arm who isn’t afraid to target WR’s. 3. The Buffalo WR room. Joining a position group with vets like Brown, Beasley, and Robert along with young players like Davis helped set the tone. All in all it’s been a good move for Diggs

I’m convinced that people just look at his stats without really watching him play much. High completion percentage, modest passing yards, nice deep ball and lack of turnovers. Yes he won’t lose you games, but he also won’t win them. He’s a great backup/fringe starter.

Yes this. Hughes is good but does not have the effect that Bruce Smith had on a game. I might argue a Cornelius Bennett as well for the same reasons. Edmunds and Milano are good players but have yet to make the game-turning plays that Biscuit did for the Bills.

I’ve been following this story for a while. He basically admitted that he missed on Allen earlier in the week. One thing he didn’t mention was the hundreds of tweets and sarcastic comments about how Allen wasn’t good. It wasn’t just Sam or the PFF guys either - it was all of “analytics Twitter.” To be fair, players like Kirk Cousins, Mitch Trubisky and even Blake Bortles a few years back faced a lot of back lash for the same reason. If they think someone sucks they are going to let you know about it

I think they meant the decision to pull EJ in favor of Orton. That only makes sense if you thought there was something there with EJ, which most of us didn’t. Marrone was apparently upset with Whaley’s trading up for Sammy Watkins. So if anyone set the team back, it was Whaley

I remember Orton dropping down in the backfield rather than take a hit when a defender was rushing him rather than a take a hit in a meaningless Week 17 game versus NE. Clearly a business decision.

Trade where though? LB? DT? CB? Many choices It’s a sprain and not a tear like Feliciano. That is big. We could see him back in a few weeks

How serious is it, if they aren’t putting him on IR?

That might be true...but I don’t think that stops him from taking the jobs

The 49 yard pass to Diggs was all air yards.

It’s still early in the year and a lot can happen but the signs of the Bills offensive production very positive. If The Bills can win the AFC East, it’s all but certain that Daboll is gone. I also think that Daboll will have a much better chance than Eric Bienemy or whatever upcoming offensive coordinator will emerge. Over the span of 3 years (if all continues) Daboll will have developed a very raw traits-based QB into an up-and-coming NFL superstar. Bienemy who works alongside with a HOF playcaller, can’t take as much claim. QB is likely going to be the #1 priority of any team who fires their coach, and what Daboll did with Allen has to be a tremendous selling point I think NYJ is definitely a possibility. Daboll might be a shot to start from scratch with the top college QB prospect in football. Daboll’s not dumb like his buddy JMD who stayed in NE when they dangled the HC carrot in front of his face (it’s going to Belichick’s kid when the old man retires). If he gets a HC shot, he’s taking it

Weirdest thing is that coming out of college, so many scouting reports put verbatim “he catches everything!” That didn’t happen in the NFL. I was watching rookie highlights. There’s a game vs San Diego were Josh hits an open Zay with a 40 yard bomb. The ball is a bit under thrown and Zay is so open he turns his body to catch the ball that hits him in the stomach. But he ends up bobbling an easy catch which wouldn’t negated a huge gain. That’s Zay’s career in Buffalo, folks

Zay still doesn’t make the team this year. He’s a low-end WR on most NFL teams. I think the problems we saw last year are still the ones that continue to plague him: 1. No separation 2. inconsistent hands 3. Not good on contested catches 4 Not quick, shifty or fast enough to create mismatches If you were to put Zay on the team, he might be the 2nd WR of the PS behind Duke Williams

I’m still trying to figure out how the Allen pass to Kroft was ruled as an INT last week.

With Snacks there must be some reason why he is unsigned. I saw that Vincent Taylor was playing with the Browns. Taylor would seriously have been a good candidate for 1 technique. I do wonder if the team makes a move at the trade deadline

I don’t think this game happens. Not next week, anyway

This was one his most consistent performances. Yes the sack took the Bills out of FG range but in this situation, it ultimately didn’t have and effect on the score

The weird thing is, the virus doesn’t seem to be transferring during games. There were zero zero infected Vikings who played Ten on Sunday. Also I don’t believe there were any infected Raiders who played NE.

I would be fine with extending the season or even shortening it by a few games. Do whatever you have to do to protect players first and then have a season, second
