McDermott ranked as NFL’s 6th best coach by NEW ARENA
BigAl2526 replied to BobbyC81's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
It'll take a few years of supplanting New England as AFC champs to know Bill Belichick off the top of the heap in the minds of national observers. -
Views from the Opposition City - week 1 Pittsburgh
BigAl2526 replied to Lothar's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Granted, I'm one of those who would love to see the remaining unvaccinated Bills just take the plunge, but I think that any perceived unsettledness over COVID, exists in fandom only. I don't think it is given a second thought in the locker room. -
Bills cuts to get to 53 [final info in the OP]
BigAl2526 replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Do we know what Sweeny's injury is, and the timetable for recovery? I think the notion of cutting Hollister in hopes of signing him after putting Sweeney on a post 53 IR is kind of risky. Maybe Buffalo is hoping Sweeney is healthy for the Pittsburgh game. -
Cam will sign somewhere, but I think his relevance in the NFL is past.

Not sure when one officially turns old. I hit 70 next year. I'm fairly certain I can no longer argue that's middle age. Don't let me down, Buffalo Bills.

Don't forget, they can save on jerseys. He can wear all of Carl Lawson's hand me downs. They're probably even the right size.

GAME BALLS - Packers v. Bills, 08/28/21
BigAl2526 replied to Freddie's Dead's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I was happy with Epenesa's long snapping work. It wasn't perfect, but having an emergency fall back who can do the job in a decent fashion is reassuring. -
McKenzie found the common sense [Edit: got vaxxed]

If he got the Pfizer or Moderna vaccine, he can now be considered fully vaccinated sometime in mid or late October. -

So he waited for six months, walked around unmasked in Bills facilities for 3 weeks, got himself fined, and now he took the plunge "for the greater good." OK.- 135 replies

I think Dawkins is fine. Just needs work to get in game shape. He'll start the Steelers game barring unforeseen circumstances.
-
If Josh has one good drive, I think McDermott would pull him. If he shows a little rust, he might get 2 or 3 drives.
-
I think one of those 8 WRs (Stevenson or Hodgins)goes to the PS and there will be another TE.

You're right. I must have been looking at numbers for somebody else. His size and speed are both pretty comparable to Brandon Powell.

What's going on with the Jets and their Spleens
BigAl2526 replied to IgotBILLStopay's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Waitt! How about Mike Love for a first? -
Agreed. The Bills will give the new guys (Rico Gafford and Steven Simms) auditions in the game on Saturday> Auditions will include return work and maybe a few reps as a slot receiver. Both will probably get cut to reach 53. Beane will say a prayer that the guy they like best sneaks through waivers so they can put him back on the roster. Both are true burners. Gafford is a sub 4.3 guy and Simms is low 4.3s.

Seriously, I don't know that there is an average fan. Does the average fan drink during the game? How much? How old is he? Or is it a she? Was the average fan involved in sports as a youth? Is the average fan politically inclined? Conservative or liberal? Does the average fan yell and scream at what is happening on the field? Does the average fan get to most of the games? Probably not since there are likely many more Bills fans than can fit in Highmark Stadium. For myself, I'm older, never played high school sports, have only attended a handful of games over my lifetime, and I don't drink a drop of beer, wine, or liquor. I am mostly quiet during games. I am somewhat politically astute, but not all that passionate about politics, and relatively moderate in my thinking. I certainly don't think of myself as an average fan.

I imagine Michel will stick as a role player for the Rams. They are thin at the position after all. Still, it's a difficult move for the Rams expending draft capital for an end of his career player.
-
I don't think the Bills' coaching staff likes to call out players in the public, but it should be pretty clear that Butler has been a pro for long enough that his talent should have resulted in greater production. All one needs to do is connect some dots.

Isaiah McKenzie shoulder injury
BigAl2526 replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
That explains why Bean picked up Rico Gafford. -
Bills claim WR Rico Gafford and DT Joey Ivie
BigAl2526 replied to HOUSE's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
He's probably an extreme long shot to make the team, but Rico Gafford instantly becomes the fastest player on the Bills, and it's not that close. He ran a 4.25 40 at his pro day. It looks as if perhaps the Bills are sending a message to Isaiah McKenzie that he ought not muff too many more punts. -
Ouch. Obviously Edmunds and Milano are locks, but after that it gets tough to narrow it down. Matakevich is your special team ace. AJ Klein is your respected veteran presence. If you assume all those guys are on the 53 man roster, you've got one more spot. Tyler Dodson has been with the team for a couple seasons. He's pretty athletic. Yet Joe Giles-Harris has made some big time plays in the first two preseason games. So has Andre Smith. If I'm the Bills, I'm trying to get better. If you're keeping just 5 guys who were here last year, it's tough to argue that you're getting better. Not saying you're wrong, just that making the safe choices may not get the Bills where they want to go.
