Agree - I don't understand why so many associate not wanting to waste a spot on a single gunner who contributes nothing else to the team to saying that ST are not important. These are the reasons to me why the team does not fall apart if Jones is not on it - Bass kickoffs into endzone = less kickoff returns - Bills punted least in the NFL last year - an average of 2.6 times/game - this could even be less this year with better offense - Haack is excellent in punts downed inside the 20 (114 of 307 kicks in career - 37%!) = even less punt returns to cover - Taiwan Jones does not make every tackle on STs - other players make coverage tackles too! - Bills emphasize acquiring/drafting/developing/coaching players with ST ability - a well coached ST unit (stay in your lanes!) with many talented ST players should be able to cover (the handful of) kicks effectively regardless of whether Taiwan Jones is on the field

Does Beane finalize a trade for Fromm at 3:45 am?

Funny, I was thinking though after all the complaints the first two games on one-sided announcing, I doubt the packer fans were thrilled with that 😛 It was a great convo though - Beane really is great at giving some meaningful comment and not just cliches

Does beane get a 5th for Fromm after that drive

You can watch it later on gamepass 😛

This is actually a pretty good convo w/ beane

Beane really wants to talk about Darryl- bodes well for him

Not sure how that fits with the protocol

Another case of opposing kicker not handling the rough conditions in Buffalo

So I guess won't get 300 then 😕

That was some good work for Josh and receivers - a whole preseason worth in a half

All that offensive penalties do is help pad Josh's stats

That's muy cool

Neal showing up today

Remember when Klein was a punchline?

DANG

The trade value chart shows you'd have to throw in Rachel bush and Billy buffalo for equitable compensation for Kay

I just want to see him complete an 80 yd bomb the 1st play then walk off

It's hard to believe this can't have some negative impact on the team dynamic - despite any public-facing "it's a personal decision" talk, there has to be some friction and outright disagreement behind closed doors, especially when some people's actions could have an impact on wins/losses

So far Stef's nephew has been the best part of the show

Van over Murph Whatever mascot (?) over Billy Buffalo Anything over Train Horn Zubaz over Everything

Interesting - I did not realize anyone was at 100%

I feel like almost certainly the percentage for most if not all teams is going to go down once cuts to 53 are made - guys on the fringe to me are more likely to vax to give them every edge to be in good standing (and minimize possibility of missing time) vs players who know they are on team regardless

Bruce at practice coaching players up is amazingly great

Haack is excellent at putting the ball inside the 20, both directionally and with hang time for fair catches. I think this was a focus of the FO, knowing the offense was going to move the ball, having a punter who could pin the other team deep was more important than having someone who could kick it 70 yds out of the back of the EZ (that being said, at the 2nd open practice haack did have one kick from the back of the EZ to the other 35 - he is certainly also capable of letting one loose as well). If anything i think he becomes a big positive for the team this year. https://www.buffalobills.com/news/how-punter-matt-haack-plans-to-use-his-versatility-in-buffalo
