If it’s 3rd down a guy will be open and the QB will have all day. They’re the signature of this dudes defense. yes it’s backups, yes it’s preseason but that’s what it is all day every day in real games too. From 2017 on just 3rd down, every QB has whatever the want. The literal opposite of what you’d ask for

bend and don’t break and hope for a missed field goal.

Astonishing

I thought Cain and 27 Jackson showed well.

It really doesn’t matter, I suppose, but why not let a backup QB and some players that are backups take a rep on a 4th and 2 instead of kicking a 30 yard field goal? What is more valuable to the team?

McD was probably hoping he would miss it, so he would have a reason to cut him.

I agree, and if he doesn't, it’s a strange way to send your struggling kicker into the regular season on a potential sour note.

Dion Cain intrigues me

Steve Smith just said on Panther broadcast. " If the Carolina Panthers keep 6 receivers, they're going to have less guys at other positions ' 😑 

How do I get one of these jobs SMH ....

This is just the “new math” they are teaching in school these days.

Plummer looked impressive against us, but was 11/18 for 42 yards (and a sack) against the Jets and 11/21 for 86 yards (and 5 sacks) against the Patriots. We have arguably the worst defensive depth in the AFCE.

Expand  

 

Either that or Buffalo plays the ultra-vanilla scheme in preseason compared to our division mates 

[frostbitmic]

Gore looked good, do they try and get him on the PS, put him on PUP, or IR him ?

 

Andreessen made a number of tackles but didn't look so good in coverage. Are any of the backup LB's playing better than him though ?

 

Bass makes me nervous on every kick and seemingly every kick is barely inside the upright ... 3 games in and I still don't like the new kickoff rule.

Who is the Target version of Deebo Samuel.

[ControllerOfPlanetX]

On the cut down to 53, need to cut Bass. No kicker on the initial 53. Then they can IR someone they want to keep and sign another kicker.

Would think Gore, Hamler, Isabella all go the PS. Maybe Andressen?

What value has Isabella shown?

Just as long as the Bills don't start looking for Dollar General versions of needed players.

This is going to be my first year playing again in at least 3 or 4 seasons.  A little nervous my entry fee is going to be a league donation this year lol.

Gore would be tough to PS and not lose him. Not all preseason darling RB’s are at risk to be poached, but gotta believe todays game and his pedigree make him a wanted guy.  Although, maybe they stash him on IR with his lower leg “injury” in the 4th.

 

Andreessen makes the team, especially with Milano out it creates space at LB.  I don’t think he would be on the PS long.  Sounded like he just wants to be on a roster, doesn’t need to be the Bills per his post game comments.  Wonder why he didn’t get any UFA looks after the draft?

 

Hamler is not a lock for PS. Probably will because he knows the system. Although, McD did talk anout what a team guy he is, specifically willing to go in at RB.
