Elam active.....so were not firing Beane?

He’s safe for now

McDermott is so weird with his inactives. A guy is good enough to start one week and then he's inactive a week later. Like you would think he'd at least be a backup. I'm not complaining I just think it's hilarious.

I think it’s a numbers thing. They have too many corners when all are healthy.

I hope we're not taking risks with Dawkins and Milano - obviously there's a risk in every game, but if they aggravate their original injuries today and miss the Dolphins game because of it...

[K D]

How could they watch the tape of last Jets game and come to the conclusion that Dane Jackson and Elam should be active over Xavier Rhodes? Unbelievable 

[Brand J]

I wonder how difficult it’d be for Rhodes to transition to safety this time of year. Since he’s not the fleetest of foot, but has vast knowledge, could be a much better asset back there than J Johnson or C Lewis. Perhaps he’d even have what it takes to overtake Hamlin, who’s been okay for the most part, but definitely an upgrade candidate.

Coaching staff has been good with giving guys enough rest after injuries before throwing them back out there.

It’s as if they see these guys in practice everyday too.

Barely.

I'm sorry, but I'm still not sold on the Jets, they're a scrappy bunch for sure, but they've vastly over-achieved so far imo.

 

They only have 2 wins against winning teams, and you could say they got lucky in both. Lucky to face the Fins 3rd string QB, and lucky to play the Bills without Milano and Poyer, also lucky that Josh was clearly in the middle of a funk, 3 game stretch where he threw 6 picks, he's only thrown 5 in the other 9 games. Despite all that, they still only won by 3 at home. 

 

This time, we're at home, it's a revenge game and the Bills are a lot healthier. I think the Jets come back down to earth today. Bills win.

Yep. IR a couple weeks ago.

Emotional Part of me is cheering hard for the Bills beat the Jets.. while the logical part of me says it doesn’t matter and my Pats losing out be the best for them.. ahh bleep it.. win Bills and hopefully my Pats get into the Playoffs. I rather have 1 more game than start a week early lol.

gotcha...thanks

Eric Wood just speculated that they started Rhodes because he’s better on run support/tackling.  

Stevenson is a load.

 

i don’t argue with a W.

I think the D is for real and they have good skill players on O. Saleh seems like a good coach. Playoff caliber with competent QB play. I do think we should win but this team is not the Patriots.

That’s the opposite of how the Bills work with injuries

No, they lost to the Patriots-- twice.
