Buffalo_Stampede Posted August 20, 2022 Posted August 20, 2022 Does James Cook remind anyone of Cj spiller? I had a guy at work last year say if only we could put 2012 CJ Spiller in this offense. Maybe they did. 1 Quote

McBeane faces some very tough decisions in terms of cuts. Lots of our 4th/5th stringers could absolutely make other teams active 53 man rosters. This is the best Bills roster I’ve ever seen in my entire life and I was born in 87. I feel strongly that this Bills team would crush all of the teams from our back-to-back Super Bowl losses. Expand Some of those SB teams when you were in short pants were pretty damned good. Is this team good.....damned right they are.....are they the best.....uh no. 1 1 Quote

Expand He’s smoother in his cuts, definitely. Spiller bounces a lot. There was one play today Cook bounced it with speed and made the defense look slow. All I could see was CJ Spiller. I don’t think we understand how good Spiller was in 2012. He was unstoppable. Edited August 20, 2022 by Buffalo_Stampede 4 Quote

Expand Well we agree to disagree....if you are saying THIS team RIGHT now would be some early 90's SB teams yes I would agree. However if said teams the Bills played against were also in the same shape as the boys now and whatnot.....well - thats why they play the games. Plus a bunch pf HOF'ers would proally like to disagree..... Quote
ytownblofan Posted August 20, 2022 Posted August 20, 2022 Won’t happen, but at a certain point does a discussion need to be had about Blacksheer vs Taiwan Jones? I know Jones is an ace on special teams, but getting less confident that Blacksheer will make it to waivers. 4 1 Quote

clayboy54 Posted August 20, 2022 Posted August 20, 2022 (edited) On 8/20/2022 at 9:56 PM, sirebors said: What are these gloves for? Expand The orange gloves show when the network goes to a commercial break. Typically, they hold the glove over their chest during a break and drop it to their side when the break is over. Watch the guy during a game. It’s interesting. Unlike the above reply, the guy doesn’t run onto the field or wave his arms or anything like that. It’s just an inconspicuous way the Referee knows when to wind the clock - play clock again. Did you ever notice when the network comes back from their break and the rejoin graphics that immediately the Ref blows the whistle and drops his hand to start the play clock? Did you just think the network timed it perfectly on a stopwatch? Nope. It goes like a well-oiled machine because of the guy with the orange glove and usuall a yellow vest with an X on it.
