  1. I wouldn’t say that was a meltdown. Dude just got emotional because he was just drafted into the NFL.
  2. I’d send a 2nd rounder plus Trent Murphy for a good 1 tech DT. If a FA next year, we can cross that bridge when we get to it. I don’t have much faith in the 2021 draft.
  3. I don’t get this TE trade talk. Is our defensive strategy going to be keeping them off the field as much as possible?
  4. This is the problem with our division. There have been constant tire fires, but not a single one will trade with us due to us being in the division.
  5. With the expanded PSs this year, I’m finding it difficult to understand why Beane can’t find some big, fat space eater stashed somewhere In the league. I may be wrong, but it sounds skill takes a back seat to size here. Plus, the guy would be youngish and hold more promise. Maybe Beane isn’t looking? I do think we need an upgrade in the LB coaching ranks. Something isn’t quite right there. Edmunds shouldn’t be making the same mistakes week in and week out.
  6. I like this quote “The best ability is availability”. I’m sure he got that from Beane and McD as I’m pretty sure they have said something similar in the past. And doesn’t bode well for Milano.
  7. I’m not sure if it was a clean or illegal hit. It’s borderline either way. I do know one thing though. It needed to happen. We could not let that ball be caught. I would have him do the same thing over and over if needed, and our secondary should not be shy about delivering such contact.
  8. The coaches who are with him daily thought otherwise. Im not saying this was a wise move, but the 2019 Bills would’ve lost this one in the last 2 minutes.
  9. This was a must win game. The season would’ve been in turmoil if we dropped this one. They put their best guys out.
  10. We don’t need a player with that many sacks on our line. Would disrupt the current chemistry.
  11. Knowing this cycle very well, Miami is merely trying to preempt the move from “play very well” to the “get paid” part, ultimately avoiding the “suck” part of the cycle. This is a great use of Miami’s analytics department.
  12. This isn’t hard to figure out. Opponent defenses and STs can score points. I don’t know how often this has occurred though.
  13. That’s the definition of a bust. If they were drafted in the 5th/6th round, which is how they are playing, people wouldn’t be up in arms and calling them busts. There’s no such thing as a 5th round bust, just 1st and maybe 2nd round busts. And Edmunds and Oliver fit the bill.
  14. We have no running game and opponents know this. Sign Bell to a 1 year, incentive laden deal. Nothing to lose.
  15. Beane is very questionable in his ability to draft defense. Tre and Milano were McD picks. Edmonds and Oliver are OK, but are definitely not living up to their draft status. He should just let McD take over defense drafting.
  16. I also believe that Goodell should not force a forfeitsure upon the Titans. In the essence of the word, this decision has to come from the Titans. Give them the option of playing in Buffalo with players who have never tested positive. This may mean that they don’t have enough players to cover all positions or that some will be playing offense and defense. Not our problem. If the Titans do not think this is feasible, then they can forfeit. A positive Covid test should be no different than an injury. If you have key players at key positions that can’t play, there’s no NFL clause that kicks in that allows teams to reschedule a game.
  17. This is something that has been documented as happening in the Olympics in regards to PED testing. Very elaborate schemes, including secret tubes and tunnels, have been used to obfuscate true testing. Although, stakes are much higher with Covid testing. Lives are on the line.
  18. I don’t want a forfeit win, but given the very abnormal circumstances, I can’t provide a good enough reason why it shouldn’t be the prudent thing to do. Let’s get away from all the stats, fantasy football, bragging rights angles. We’re in a pandemic. The team that we are to play next week was grossly negligent in their handling of the NFL’s protocol. We didn’t ask for this. They did. The Commish has specifically said forfeiture is on the table. It should be used to not only keep players safe, but also to continue the NFL season as intended.
