This just made the preseason game pointless unless you are interested in seeing mitch trubisky throw to the new wr crew.

 

All these teams that hold joint practices basically do even less in the preseason matchup.  Not that it matters.

Except not Pittsburgh. He's not quite John Harbaugh but Mike Tomlin treats preseason games like they're the Super Bowl

LOL, and presumably that was Antonio Brown, maxing out his brain power and mixing it up with Kyle Williams.  

 

Too bad that one didn't escalate, it would have been fun watching Kyle snap Brown in half like a twig.

Joint practices to me are dumb due to the fact that they always lead to unnecessary hits and fights that break out at these things. Hopefully McDermott and Tomlin's relationship together will keep this from getting out of hand.

I went to this same joint practice at Steelers camp years ago (Marrone era).  Easier for Bills fans to go to this than to St. John Fisher. It’s just open fields and endless space and parking at Steelers camp. 

 

Just like Fredonia back in the day. No shuttle bus needed. You could catch players walking to the camp from the dorms.

Steelers bullied us in pre-season last year. 

It honestly seemed like they had game planned some, which is crazy. What do you gain when everyone else is running basic stuff?

Look for the camp headline news on August 16, "Bills and Steeler Tussle At Camp"

 

Funny, but I doubt it.  McD and Tomlin go way back and I'm sure there's a gentleman's agreement not to let things get out of hand.

Just no meaningless injuries.

 

You can't wrap players in bubblewrap, but knocking on wood.

 

May be a great opportunity to decide on players on both squads that are on the bubble vs different competition.

I hope there’s a bunch of fights and multiple players on both sides get suspended and/or miss weeks due to fight-related injuries. 
 

 

Fights at joint practices are almost a guarantee

I wouldn't travel for it, but backup QB against his former team in the preseason?  Could be fun.  

 

About as compelling as these preseason games get.

They also had an edge. We looked like we were at OTAs.
