Then the NFL needs to adapt their OL prototypes. Just like they did after dealing with 20 years of almost zero great QBs coming out. The NFL adapted and accepted the less traditional, more mobile, running QBs and now we have a whole new base of young star QBs. And the League is the most exciting and interesting it's been since the 90s.

Speed, AND the instincts/training to actually break to the sideline when you get space. One of the most basic concepts drilled into us RBs from Pop Warner, but for years I've watched Bills RBs continue to cut back inside and into all the traffic of the Defense. Break for those sidelines and get in the open!

Because Rochester actually puts fluoride in their water which turns all the men into sissies. We dont do that in Buffalo.

I normally love Hard Knocks. Finally checked it out this week. Made it half way through the first episode before turning it off. The good news is, it inspired me to check out The Righteous Gemstones instead since I was already in the HBO app. Masterpiece.

This is hilarious.

I dont care how desperate we are at MLB, or how much coaches like seeing the intensity of a camp fight, if you are swinging a helmet in the vicinity of Morse and/or Josh that is a cuttable offense.

The max PS salary is $20,600/wk. For 18 weeks, that's $370,800. If he has even $4M properly invested he can make about that much without having to leave his house.

Hopefully coming from a football family he was well prepared on how to manage and maximize finances. 6 years, $13M, and moving on at 31. Not a bad gig if you can get it.

After reading Touhy's statements I was inclined to believe him. However, a couple of minor things dont add up. 1. As others pointed out, they totally could have legally adopted him. 2. His statement that none of them made any money from the movie, and all they got was half of the author's payment ($14k each, or about $60k total). I find it nearly impossible to believe that the Touhy's being good business people just handed over all the rights to their story to the movie studio. That movie was up for Movie of the Year, won Oscars for other things, was a big hit... and it all just lined some studio exec's pocket? And they were ok with that? I'm sure a lot went to Sandra Bullock and maybe some other actors, but still... Just giving away your story seems idiotic. My conclusion after studying all the evidence presented by both sides: I dont care at all. Start the season. Go Bills!!

In fairness, it was their lives as well. It was the story of Oher AND the family. Not just Oher. How much of Oher's football money did he give them? I'd assume none, rightfully so. That all said, something about that family did give me the creeps even back then. Had a very unsettling "white savior" feel to all of it. Whatevs. Season is about to start.

This is like being asked to choose my hottest cousin. Fact of the matter is, if Josh goes down for an extended period of time/the season, then our season is done. Pull a Cincinnati Special. Tank it and get a top 10 pick. Then add that talent and get your QB back in 2024 to make a run. There's really no point to discussing Kyle vs Barkley (but I get it, message board and all).

Or is it lower?

Funny because I always say ILB is the defensive equivalent to the RB on the offense. And Beane tried two questionable 3rd round picks to solve our RB situation as well.

Coming from a Bills fan who was around for 2000-2018, this is straight up hyperbole. I'm not a huge Fields fan by any means, was never a believer and was glad when he left UGA, but he isnt as bad as this thread makes him out to be either. Especially if they stick with the newer Offense that was more tailored to his skill set.

How do all the Fields voters feel after Stroud's first starting performance? 2/4 13yds 3.3avg 0TD 1INT 1-15Sack 17.7Rtg and yanked

Vikings had ONE BOAT RIDE that took them from the bottom to the TOP of the list. Yeah, the NBA has been the flagship for player behavior in pro sports, at least since Adam Silver has been there, but from even before that iirc. They did a major overhaul from the 80s/90s bad boys leagues. There is too much money to be made in the NBA to have guys messing up. Been a pretty tight ship over there for a while.

I served on the board of that club all the way up to the beginning of last season. Changed my tune on him a bit through last year. That was a tough call for Beane. Cant pay him as much as the Bears tho.

Not sure if this is in response to MLB, CB2, or both. But either way, the fact theyre still in a battle, especially at CB2, is the part that stands out most. Competition is good! But I'm hoping it's not because no one is stepping in as the clear cut winner.

So Kincaid, Torrence, and Williams are all buried. But McD doesnt slow-roll rookies...

I never understood all the Spector love here. Is it because he came out of a big program? He's never stood out on the field to me, even when he was at Clemson. He always seemed like an AJ Klein replacement, at best.

I'm trying to not dive too deep into this since it's just the FIRST depth chart of the season in preparation for the FIRST preseason game (whatever that is worth). Biggest jump outs to me: 1. Bates over Torrence, but not too surprising. 2. The battle at WR3 3. Bernard in there at MLB 4. CB2... Cmon, Elam. Time to step up and lock it down.

We plan on getting one. My quotes were both around $10k for the Generac generator and install. So it can wait right now. I'm sitting here without power since 5pm yesterday. ERT 5pm today. Second 24hr outage we've had this summer. Going to Harbor Freight and getting this guy today. Will be good enough until we pull the trigger on the Generac. Or if it's good enough, save me $9k.

This is a game that he DID take a lot of the underneath stuff. He was doing that for the first 5-6 weeks. We were rolling. Then is stopped at/after the Green Bay game, and before his elbow injury. I still think it's because Defenses figured out how to bait Dorsey/Josh into making a read on their alignment that says "When you see this, throw it deep".

Well it kind is. Like the old saying goes "anyone with half a brain can make any statistic say anything they want". Also, the ol "lies, damned lies, and statistics". But I do appreciate OPs efforts.
