    Definitely would have wanted Creed Humphrey. Oh well. 


     

    I couldn’t stop hearing about Humphrey from a friend of mine who was so excited about him and believed he would be their in the second round for us, which he was.

     

    Now I can’t even talk to him about it as it makes him sick.

    Yes, they're better than us. The same way the they were "better" than us last year.  And like like last year I expect we win more games than the "better" team.

     

     

    I could kiss you Jauronimo.

     

    Not open mouth and not likely on the lips, but more as a sign of respect.  Not like the Italians or French do, but real, respectful good old American kiss, you magnificent bastard.

     

    ...oh, and your take is pretty good, too.

  3. I was at a dinner party at my sisters.  It was great.  Dry rub baked wings and salmon cakes and then steak and shrimp with broccoli for dinner.

     

    I could not record the game because of the Directv / Nexstar snit so no CBS/channel for weeks now, which always…ALWAYS happens at this time of year.

     

    Recording right now on nfl network.  
     

    Do I even want to or should I just simply move on?

    No cake, no booze, lotta veggies. Very heart friendly


    Milton, no lie I have been on such a health kick the last few months.  Little to no carbs, protein, cruciferous vegetables, and not necessarily intermittent fasting, but I don’t eat after 6 pm or before 6 am, unless we are at a wedding or we are hosting a party.
     

    only 4 times after six in 10 weeks.  This along with exercise and I feel the best I’ve felt in almost a decade. 
     

    Getting in game shape!

    Has there been any mentions yet or plans for a Damar Hamlin related event at the game or at half time?

     

     

    My house, rayray.  I think we are doing something for it at my house.

     

    Talk to @HOUSE . He has most of the deets.

     

    There will be cake and balloons.  

     

    We could use a veggie plate if you want to sign up.

    I can understand the interest in our old boys, but liking all their moves?  Not so much.  No problem with the dumpster diving and recycling of the old Bills players, it's reminiscent of the Bills/Carolina routine.  But none of those players are going to amount to much (and that includes Beas).

     

     The real problem is  the Daboll/Shoen duo are fully responsible for foolishly giving Danny Dimes big money and giving large salaries to RBs.  That was not the lessons coming from the Bills.  That is like extending Tyrod and giving McCoy a big contract back in the day.  The duo is selling out for the short term and I don't think it will work.

     

     

    Some solid points, ED.  However,  as much as I am not the biggest fan of DJ, I am also not hounding on him.  He has Daboll right now as his OC and is almost (almost) night and day with him.  The highest QB rating of his career even while the team still had big holes?  Check. 

     

    He is a veteran and he has more weapons.  I never said they are winning the super bowl or even the division, but I do like what they are doing.

     

    Brown and Cole were what the Bills needed...when they needed them.  Whatever piecemeal Schoen is doing, even at this stage and other than QB, is still a bit year to year.

    The Giants signed Paris Campbell, who is primarily a slot, for $2.9M guaranteed.  Then they signed Jamison Crowder to a VSB (vet salary benefit) contract with small signing, workout, and roster bonuses.

     

    Then they signed Beasley to vet minimum with NO bonuses

     

    The general feeling on folks covering the Giants seems to be that Shepard, Slayton, Hodgins, 3rd round pick Jalin Hyatt, and Parris Campbell are sho-ins.

     

    That probably leaves one roster spot.  Crowder can return punts and kicks - did last year and the year before.  Beasley has returned punts and kicks in the past, but has not done so since 2018.

    Some Giants writers are putting Beasley ahead of Crowder.  Both caught everything thrown at them in the game vs the Lions, Crowder 2 of 2 for 32 yds, Beasley 4 of 4 for 33 yds.  Beasley played in the 1Q, Crowder in the 2Q, which is often held to indicate position on the depth chart, but it's only the 1st preseason game.

     

     

     

     

    Beck, thank you for the info.  Great stuff.  

     

    Honestly going to be watching this if I get the chance during the next two games.

     

    It is preseason, but I am starting to get so wound up for the season I just need more and more to think about, even above and beyond the Bills.

     

    Unless everyone else here just wants to listen to and watch the talking heads fall all over themselves about the Jets for the next three weeks?

     

    😉

    Lots of posts in the thread when he signed that he’s better than Brown or would push him for the starting job.

     

     

    Airseven, if what you are saying is true that means TSW might be susceptible to board members quickly throwing injured Bills (Brown) under the bus and giving broad superlative praise to the new guy in town.  

     

    I am going to have to research this a bit because I am finding it difficult to believe.

    Interesting, thats a really thin WR room. Davis would be the clear wr1 there.

    I mean he was good off the couch w Dorsey. He doesn't rely on speed, just getting to soft spots in zone. I think Buf just wanted more explosiveness from the slot

     

    Honestly, JB, I can't imagine that they are looking for more than 3-4 grabs a game, all for about 8-10 yards a pop and a couple of first downs.  If he still has anything left that is what they will get.  I don't think he is a key for them, but he does give them that slot threat/dump off.

    Hey donuts, you may be right.  He’s definitely lost a step.  Most likely he’ll be good for 7 yard quick out passes, but not much after the catch.

     

    That will help the Giants keep the sticks moving.  He’s reliable and has sure hands.  He’s just lost the athleticism he once had at a younger age.  This isn’t me banging on the guy.  The Giants need bandaids to keep in the hunt in the NFCE.

     

    It makes sense for Dabbs.  Since he and Schoen went there, I’ve become a small Giants supporter.  Nothing like the Bills, but I want them to succeed.  I’m still hopeful we beat them in October, but confident this may be Von’s first game and you know he’ll have a big game.

     

    Guns, solid points.  Additionally, I can't think of a move that Daboll and Schoen done since they got to New York that I haven't liked.  Not everything will pan out, but I like that team and it doesn't hurt that I love the guys running it.

    That's a really solid stat line for a preseason game...however in this case it feels like more information is needed.

     

    For instance, being preseason was he with the 1s working against 1s and 2s from the Lions? Did he do his damage against late in the game going against those the general public like to say are headed for grocery clerk status? How deep into the game did he play? 

     

    I ask not to bash but because I didn't catch the game and don't know the answer. However usage and level of opponent really comes into play during the preseason as well.

     

     

    BBG, you are absolutely right.  I, too, did not catch the game.  I was just checking the stat line as I believe someone on NFL Network was referencing that he had a good game.

     

     

    BTW, my post about him was NOT about him staying here or that he should have stayed here.  We have better options, top to bottom.  I just remembered this thread and details on game 1 were referenced this morning.

    I agree it's nonsensical, but I'm not convinced it's entirely about the money.  I think maybe Oher feels hurt because someone convinced him the Touhy family used him.  

     

    But it's hard to know motivation unless you know Oher personally.  In any case, it's a sad situation.  Oher used to be family with the Tuohy's.  Seems that's over.  Bad for all sides.  


     

    They stated public they still love him.

    Kinda a ho-hum game.  if Kyle Allen continues to struggle, Barkley may take his job, he looked pretty good today, albeit against mostly 3rd and 4th stringers. Still, a 154 rating with only 1 incompletion and 2 TD passes is good no matter who it's against.


     

    and I believe the incompletion was a drop.

     

  12.  

    I mess any of you up who gets in the way of me getting one of these to complete my set.*

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    (* No I won't.  I won't even look at you cross.  I just want the set is all.  the last one is unopened.  The first one we got...well, my daughter got a hold of it.  Let's leave it at that)

    Do former players count?

     

    For that matter, does arrested but not charged count ?

     

    Ed Oliver was arrested for DWI and weapon charges but charges were dropped. 

     

    Marcell Dareus - couple arrests. Weed (synthetic) and drag racing right?

     

    Zay Jones - jumping through windows naked while fighting his brother 

     

    Cyrus Koundijo (spelling) - didn't he have a breakdown and was wandering around near the 400? I f orget if that was an arrest or not

     

    Was Shady ever arrested for anything ? His posse had that run in with an off duty cop in Philly. Can't remember if there was an arrest. There was also all that ugliness with his ex-GF

     

     

    Did weight-gain-sympathy-for-the-Mrs ever get arrested or was he just suspended at some point?

    We’ve been hearing good things about him. Starting with Dolphin players and fans sad to see him go to JA bragging on him to having a solid camp. What do you guys think Sherfield’s ceiling is with this team?

     

    I know it’s just training camp, but just when you thought you’ve seen all the throws from JA, check this out! Nice grab too.

     

    And check out this one handed grab.


    Go Bills!

     

     

     

    Stupid and stupider.

     

    To the Board members, we are about to be disgustingly spoiled with what's brewing between Josh and some of his receivers.

     

    Fat, sloppy, dirty, rotten, slobberingly spoiled, with three giant scoops of ice cream and a cherry on top to finish it off.

     

    Hopefully a ring.

     

    GO BILLS!
