Wow, I didn't realize he was being activated this soon. That's awesome! It will still take him several weeks to get back into game shape, but if he can do it, that's a nice piece to have back.

I don't know that I'd call him a bust, but I'd still call him a disappointment. As a second rounder, he should be a starter. But if he's a quality backup, that's still worth something.

I have to say, I was probably most impressed by the job that was done by those 2nd and 3rd string defensive linemen. There were consistently getting into the backfield and stuffing run plays. Obviously not much game planning there, but still nice to see those guys consistently winning their one-on-one matches.

So far in the first two preseason games, it looks like the Bills defense is playing very well. Extremely stout against the run, not giving up much yardage or points. I believe I read somewhere that the first 6 drives by both Indianapolis and the Giants resulted in 46 total yards (each). They're allowing very few first downs, and very low third down conversion percentage. They also are passing the eyeball test, at least by these two eyes. That appears to be the case despite all of the defensive starters being replaced by backups. They've had unexpectedly good productivity by several backup defensive linemen and linebackers, not to mention some of the backup CBs and safeties. The question is: is this is a true improvement, or just a byproduct of the preseason? Discuss.

Thanks again for all you do, Rastro. I will miss these dearly (all the way out in Utah, by the way). Until next year...

I can hear Sully licking his chops from hundreds of miles away...

Inexcusable. Just !@#$ing inexcusable.

Great to have this to read in the face of all the injuries and negativity...

The sarcasm is strong in this one...

Players with less than 4 years experience can't just go on IR, they have to clear waivers first.

Awesome as always, Astro!

Best comment from the Bears fans:

Oh man, that was good. Best part: the one we are all familiar with:

Good to see you again, Ice. Hope we get to play you this year.

You are my personal savior. Thanks.

Great googly-moogly

I can barely keep track of all these WRs. One day Salas looks good, the next day it's Lewis, now it's Little...I'm not even sure who's who anymore.

Damn. Hope this doesn't mean Ragland's injury is worse than initially thought. This team.

Awesome job, thanks so much!!

A thing of beauty, as always. You're the best.

You can't afford me.

That's the max that insurance will cover.

That day can't come soon enough...but then, Chef Jim will just tell us that a finger up the ass once a year keeps him regular and has kept him from needing a colonoscopy, so he'll just continue with it.

I love watching this feed every now and then. Very soothing, for some reason. EDIT: You're right, there's a dude fly fishing right there. Wonder if he knows how close he is to a group of bears? EDIT: Now there are two fly fishermen, with a bear in the water in clear view. These are some brave souls.
