Funny thing is almost none of the people advocating for Taiwan have probably even noticed him in a game and are arguing his greatness over a comment from a coach. While he’s obviously a great ST player for us, this notion he is irreplaceable in that role is so grossly over exaggerated around here. Well this is most definitely not true of me. 1

You must be a Communist or something. 1 3

Yeah there is not but sometimes you just gotta go with your youth if you want to to evolve........this team is so stacked I think we can take a chance here. Would like to see a good corner off waivers if that becomes available

Milanos Milano Posted August 31, 2021 Posted August 31, 2021 Considering Haack speciality is hangtime and punts being downed inside the 20, Taiwan is fairly expendable. Especially considering how low we punt, which I figured this year will be even lower given I expect Josh and this offense to put up even better numbers this year. 1

Why I don't get too involved with the ST gunners talk much. Just one of those things that I look up and most of the time both gunners are pretty much down the field fast and about the same time lol Edited August 31, 2021 by Sheneneh Jenkins 1

Given how often we go 5 wide, keeping 8 makes sense. I think we roll with 2 QBs. Edited August 31, 2021 by IronMaidenBills

Right now (on paper, at least), we have a worse ST unit than we did last season.

Replacing a top notch ST player for a player who "can do the job" is a preposterous trade off, IMO. Especially when you are dealing with back of the roster offensive or defensive players. Those players very rarely get an opportunity to play offense or defense, so their contribution to those units is minimal. OTOH, a great ST player makes a big impact several times in virtually every game. A great ST unit needs players who are great at the job, 2 1

MAJBobby Posted August 31, 2021 Posted August 31, 2021 I have to say it feels SOOOO freaking good looking at the Cuts and saying Meh he isn’t needed on this roster. Been scouring names and ONLY found 1 so far I would call about. how far the Bills have come with the overall talent level of the team. 2
