Fine. Be that way. I supposed next you'll be telling me that Beasely wasn't yelling at McDermott and that Levy won't die if he leads the charge.

I thought I read somewhere that you can't bring a guy in after regular season to active roster to play in the playoffs. Did anyone else see that article? Can't remember where I read it. It theorized they could sign Shaq to PS cuz he's a great locker room inspiration, and then have first dibs on him next year to potentially play.

I just read you can, but are limited to just 4 guys..

There's at least 5 posts on Twitter claiming he was spotted at  Duff's 🤷🏻‍♂️

Love it. Shaq plays with an edge. 

That's funny, since he is supposed to be an edge rusher but he doesn't produce sacks.

Fire up the pegula plane tracker thread!

I can get behind signing him to the practice squad. I would not want to see him play significant snaps over anyone else we have.

I used to love those. We were down bad then, really bad.

Run game stopper. Nice.

New punt returner?  It has to be an upgrade.

 How many times have you seen it with NE?

 

Guy has productive but not elite years with Belichick, signs massive contract in free agency, bombs out in new scheme, tries another spot, bombs out there too, comes back to NE and is productive again under Belichick. 

 

Love to see it happen here, its a great sign of success IMO. 

Shaq wasn't really that productive with the Bills, though. He was bad at first, became below average, and then had one decent year where he was barely average.

Next, they will say Bills signed Punter Brian Moorman. LOL

His last year he played the run at a high level and his pass rush was above adequate I’d say. 

 

He didn’t put up big sack numbers, but to date no one has in this defensive scheme, so I don’t judge our edge rushers too harshly for that.

Like you just ate a 3lb gas station burrito bad? Or you just ate a 3lb gas station burrito and you start driving towards your destination and you realize there are no nearest exits and your electronic locks on your doors aren’t working bad?

he hasn't signed but if he does,   we told you first

[Blainorama5]

OMG what a debacle.  First the Beas/McD curfuffle, now the phantom Shaq signing.  How hard is it to get responsible reporting on this message board ????

 

 

 

That was a joke btw.

Oh I think his pass rush was not adequate, and stopping the run is fine, but you don't give guys big contracts or even significant starting time just to stop the run.

 

I think letting Lawson and Phillips both walk was the right move by far, and I don't even like the idea of bringing either of them back. They are not good enough to be Buffalo Bills in 2022, in my opinion.

 

And it is suspect that they were both busts but scraped together decent years in their contract year so that they could get paid, then completely underperformed since then.
