Big Turk

No way...dude is giving up 20+ lbs...he would get eaten alive by OLinemen. Actually almost 30 lbs...Poyer is listed at 192 lbs, Milano at 221 lbs.

I thought he played OK...obviously some mistakes but made a few nice athletic pass breakups...Dodson played mostly Ok as well too. Likely we are going to see a platoon between them.

Most likely he just doesn't realize it. Sometimes the body can compensate for a while but then if pushed more than it can compensate the effects become clear pretty quickly.

Yes obviously it will definitely help. The Bills had similar issues last year missing a lot of players on D and held together mostly fine. The scheme limits the impact of any one player going out to as much a degree as possible. Obviously having Tre, DaQuan and Cookie out are big losses, but not as big as they would be in other schemes.

Yeah...because that's the same as everyone on the team, including coaches having to all experience a huge stressor to the body's status quo. I would be willing to bet if you were hooked up to machines to measure your metabolic and other internal processes, it would take a lot longer than that. Most studies they have done say 2 weeks for your body to "reset" completely.

When was the last time you heard players needing to drink tons of coffee and other caffeinated beverages to stay awake during Friday meetings?

They don't need to say it...it IS an issue regardless of whether they want to say it or not. Science has proven this many times over. You disrupt the body's internal rhythms and you are simply just "off". You don't really know why or have an explanation, you just are. The effects are different from person to person...some will be effected much more than others. "Jet lag can negatively affect athletic performance, especially when traveling across multiple time zones. It is caused by the misalignment of the body's internal clock (circadian rhythm) with the local time at the destination, leading to symptoms such as sleep disruptions, fatigue, difficulty concentrating, and altered mood. Athletes may experience a decline in cognitive and physical performance due to jet lag. Physiological parameters like heart rate, ventilation, and blood lactate, as well as direct measures of physical performance like peak muscle force, anaerobic power output, and vertical jump, are associated with circadian rhythms"

No wonder why he looked so terrible whenever he got into a game...he literally had no idea what was going on. How is it possible for a player to get to the NFL and then not want to do everything in their power to be the best they can be? https://www.yahoo.com/sports/mike-mcdaniel-confirmed-johnny-manziel-122649332.html

Does it really matter? The Giants scored 6 offensive points against Miami yesterday against a defense we torched for 48. And 3 of those came off a Tua INT that had them in FG range.

I didn't think the coverage was that bad at times...I think the coaching staff put themselves in that spot by not getting him enough work in real games...I think as the year goes on he will improve as he did last year...

Not a great look that the Bills put Ja'Marcus Ingram in there instead of Elam late in the game and McD when asked if Elam was hurt said "no, we just wanted to get a look a t some other players." Which in coach speak says "He was sucking so bad that we would rather have a UFA practice squad player in there instead of our 1st round pick from last year." Ingram promptly missed an easy tackle in the hole on Etienne which allowed him to score on that 35 yard run.

Dak is imploding

According to science and from many other teams that have tried this in all sports, it would not have been it would have been worse.

They were top 5 last year and the year before in terms of least players lost to man games. People simply don't watch enough other games or follow enough other teams to know how many players are out for other teams...it's typically far more than the Bills.

Unfortunately flying 2 weeks ahead of time wasn't an option. They took the next best one according to science.

The Bills have literally been the least injured team in the NFL by a WIDE MARGIN and in the top 5 every year in terms of man games lost to injury since McD has been here. Get a clue

The science says it's either 2 weeks before or right before.

Cousins...SMFH.

Davis needed to catch the ball instead of dropping it that would have been a first down.

That was crazy...not only do they pick up the flag, the official told the player to put his helmet back on instead of flagging him for it!

C'mon...KC getting gifts

Should have been a bullet throw rather than a lob.

It was also an experiment to see if the Jags could play in London while their stadium is being built.

Agree...lots of online options

Kelce looks like he might be dealing with a serious injury...
