Over 29 years of fanhood Posted October 23, 2017 Posted October 23, 2017 @MatthewFairburn E.J. Gaines and Jordan Poyer came out of Bills' win w/ injuries. Bad news w/ Derek Carr coming to town: http://www.newyorkupstate.com/buffalo-bills/index.ssf/2017/10/ej_gaines_jordan_poyer_injuries_loom_large_after_buffalo_bills_win_over_bucs.html This may be the toughest match up and situation this season
BearNorth Posted October 23, 2017 Posted October 23, 2017 Oakland is almost a carbon copy of TB. Great offense, not so great defense. Might be a game just like today's! But Khalil Mack, and he will have more than his share of fans in the stands.
BearNorth Posted October 23, 2017 Posted October 23, 2017 (edited) Note: This is the game where the Cookie Gilchrist's name will be added to the Bills' Wall of Fame. I'm hoping both teams will don 1964 throwback uniforms for the occasion. I was at the Rock Pile on 12/8/1963 when Cookie set the all time pro football single game rushing record [36 carries 243 yards] in a mosh pit. Will be there Sunday with my son. Long overdue, Ralph was petty on this one. Cookie also had 5 rushing TD's in that game. Edited October 23, 2017 by BearNorth
26CornerBlitz Posted October 23, 2017 Author Posted October 23, 2017 @buffalobills We've claimed CB Tony McRae and released WR Kaelin Clay. Details: http://bufbills.co/roUStM 5:05 PM - 23 Oct 2017 I was at the Rock Pile on 12/8/1963 when Cookie set the all time pro football single game rushing record [36 carries 243 yards] in a mosh pit. Will be there Sunday with my son. Long overdue, Ralph was petty on this one. Cookie also had 5 rushing TD's in that game. That is cool!
BearNorth Posted October 23, 2017 Posted October 23, 2017 That is cool! 5 TD's is still the record for Rushing TD's in a game. Shared with Jim Brown, Ricky Watters, James Stewart, Clinton Portis
DriveFor1Outta5 Posted October 23, 2017 Posted October 23, 2017 (edited) But Khalil Mack, and he will have more than his share of fans in the stands. Im not doubting that many of us on this board were aware of Mack at UB, but Im betting that the majority of Buffalo fans barely knew the guy existed while he played at UB.

26CornerBlitz Posted October 23, 2017 Author Posted October 23, 2017 @AdamSchefter Chiefs CB Marcus Peters spoke on behalf of Raiders RB Marshawn Lynch during today’s appeal, as @JayGlazer said. Al Davis never would believe NFL Appeals Officer James Thrash heard Marshawn Lynch’s appeal today for 1-game suspension, per sources. A decision is expected Tuesday. Marshawn Lynch argued that 9 players, including Aaron Donald and Taylor Lewan last season, made contact with an official; none suspended. @BairNBCS JDR said Raiders expected to hear result of Marshawn appeal early this week...likely Tuesday. "That would be fair" to help prep for Buffalo JDR: Bills have a 'couple of my favorites' in Andre Holmes, Taiwan Jones and Lorenzo Alexander...hard-nosed former Raiders now in Buffalo JDR: Too early to speculate on whether Conley (shin) will return (or not) this year. Raiders being patient, trying to allow him time to heal
nbbillsfan Posted October 23, 2017 Posted October 23, 2017 this will be a tough game. Raiders will be desperate, they need this win to stay in the hut.
Magox Posted October 23, 2017 Posted October 23, 2017 This game is going to be extremely tough. Their offense is beginning to roll and our defense is going through some injuries that we simply cannot afford. I hope Gaines and Poyer are able to suit up and play, if not then I think it's going to be a long afternoon for the defense and the offense will be relied on to put up 30 again to win.

One good game against KC doesn't constitute a roll. We'll see how well they travel.
BearNorth Posted October 23, 2017 Posted October 23, 2017 seriously awesome ! Each Point. Hope you and the Boy have a Great Game, Bear !! Thx, special Day to see Cookie go on the wall.
Nick the Greek Posted October 23, 2017 Posted October 23, 2017 This is the biggest home game in a very very long time.get loud on 3rd down boys.. do I ever miss WNY and having seasons.
HappyDays Posted October 23, 2017 Posted October 23, 2017 EJ Gaines is day to day every single week, dude just keeps getting injured and coming back the next week like it was nothing.
26CornerBlitz Posted October 23, 2017 Author Posted October 23, 2017 EJ Gaines is day to day every single week, dude just keeps getting injured and coming back the next week like it was nothing. Not exactly the case with too many DNFs.
3rdand12 Posted October 23, 2017 Posted October 23, 2017 Thx, special Day to see Cookie go on the wall. just recently became a Gilchrist fan. and a serious one. Did not live in the area till 74 and did not even notice the Bills just before the super bowls. I hope you Boys have a fine day, as i hope we all do. Not exactly the case with too many DNFs. whats the deal with the new Kid they picked up of waivers? anything good 26? Hope for growth? How about Trae Elston? Can he hold down the fort?

I don't know much about McRae except that he's mostly been a ST contributor. Elston is a big hitter with questionable recognition and coverage skills. I'm hoping neither has to see extensive action in defensive sets.
Pine Barrens Mafia Posted October 23, 2017 Posted October 23, 2017 get loud on 3rd down boys.. do I ever miss WNY and having seasons. We have the world's most annoying train horn for that.

I hope they don't need to play either then. but would be hell of a test for Coaches if they do need to get reps. Wright scares me a little still.
