May as well draw a warm bath, get your copy of Sylvia Plath, pour some red wine and a bowl of sleeping pills and see what happens?

What a stupid thing to say. The guy has given his heart and soul to Buffalo, has been a primary culprit for the franchise's turnaround, and is emblematic of everything that's right with this team

IDK who needs to hear this (but apparently it’s at least half of this message board, most of Twitter and a good portion of political talk shows), but here goes:   NO ONE GIVES A CRAP ABOUT Y

Also, does Josh look like he's in pain walking off the field after the final throw?

 

 

4 pm?!?! Why so friggin late?!?!

Probably because its after practice?  Better off after practice than before.  We might get something better than "we are taking it day by day with Josh." Doubtful but we might.

I'm going to hazard a guess here, that you haven't worked closely with many really good, PhD level physical therapists.

 

I have absolutely had a really good PT diagnose me - after a Dr visit and tests - said walk here, turn there, hold this up, pressed (SCREAMS), proceeded to write a note to doctor suggesting re-examination and different tests.  Have others in my social circle with similar experiences.   Part of the issue is that the art of physical examination is not as thoroughly taught to physicians these days, when tests are more objective - but they have to be the right tests looking at the right part.

 

Then I'm gonna let this go, because it really doesn't matter.

Your guess is wrong, your assumption about physicians not being taught physical examination thoroughly is downright hilarious, and the lack of excessive quotation marks in your reply is leaving me a little disappointed.

You seem to have missed my whole premise. None of us have EVER seen Case Keenam with a week of preparation and game planning, not to mention playing with all the starters. You can say what you want and dig your heels in, too. You have no earthly idea what he can do with the opportunity. At best, you are on a soapbox.

This is a valid point IMHO.  When we saw Keenum inserted with the starters in pre-season, as I recall he moved the ball.

When we've seen Keenum in mop-up duty, he's playing with the backups.

 

Here's what we know about Keenum's past playing history.

1) he showed flashes being pressed into service for a suddenly defunct Matt Schaub on the Texans

2) he looked awful on a Rams team that managed to make Sam Bradford, Nick Foles, and Keenum all look totally inept.

Bradford looked competent next year in Minn (then got hurt); Keenum had an 11-3, 22 TD 7 INT season with Minn; Foles won the Superbowl (point is these aren't 3 great QB, but they were all functional in the right offense)

3) he had a chance to start in Denver and was Not Good Enough (but Denver was cycling through coaches and QBs like a Mile High Laundromat

4) Since then played for Washington and Cleveland.  He won the two games he started last year in Cleveland.

 

My $0.02 for what it's worth, is that Keenum is able to be a competent NFL QB in the right system.  He doesn't have a lot of mobility, and he's at his best with the support of a competent run game. 

 

Can the Bills put enough of the "right" system around him to win if he plays?  Don't know.  It will be a challenge for Dorsey and the team.

I believe Frank Reich is available and I recall he backed up Jim Kelly wonderfully in several very critical games.....

Oh, well, can't please everyone.  I might have some factual basis for my comments.  Then again, I might not.  Moving on.....

This guy has known stuff in the past, he has some kind of connection to the team, maybe through the facility or trainers:

He's also been wrong a ton of times. His tweets are guesses/opinions. It's not a coincidence he tweeted that after Diggs tweet.
