Yeah, we should resign Tremaine Edmunds as soon as we can.

That's the kind of guy you can rely on.

 

I realize you meant this as a joke but there is some happy place between Bernard's instincts and Edmunds's size. I wouldn't put it past the FO to get one of these in the upcoming draft. 

 

For this week,  no matter what Bernard says, I would like him to not play and this heal up

I think there is some interest in having Bernard, Milano, and Williams in against certain looks. 

 

does this take Johnson out of the line up ?   That will make the back four weaker.  Johnson means so much to this scheme. 

 

The Bills defense has pigeon holed its players to the scheme and neither one is flexible.

We can bring Tremaine back after his contract is up in Chicago he's still only 19 years old

 

You're wrong.

 

I don't want to get pissy with you but it's like playing wack a mole around here... the number of times I have to correct people about this.

 

Tremaine doesn't turn 19 until May 2nd.

 

(if there's a next time it'll be all capitalized)

Beane's in a tough spot because they can extend him now and not pay as much if they waited a year.  However, I would want to see a full season of him being healthy before committing long term.

Same here.  His injury history along with his play in the 2nd half of the season has me second guessing paying him big bucks. 
 

I felt the same way about Spencer Brown-  I was wrong there.  
 

Let’s just hope he can get back to playing the stellar MLB play we’ve seen in the past.  I haven’t seen it as much recently, maybe due to the DL, but we need more from him imo

This sounds more promising than how Thad Brown and Joe Buscaglia framed it, but still concerning that he’s in this position as we’re a week out from getting ready for our first playoff opponent.

 

Milano just came back off injury, Williams had an elbow he’s dealing with, now this with Bernard.. 

 

Undersized LB’s getting pummeled game in/game out due to undersized DT’s seems to be a common culprit for the issues we’ve been facing.

It’s why they’re going to win the whole thing again unless we beat them.  
 

Sick of hearing “everyone has injuries.”

 

Correct and those teams lose.  

You are forgetting the SuperBowl they lost when both starting OT were lost to injuries in the playoffs

Yes. They have played 4-3 a few times this year. Baltimore and recent Jets game come to mind. Usually they switch to it after getting gashed in the run game. But quickly go back to nickel. Baltimore was a disaster because Morrow was the third LB.

So he can make the tackle 8 yards down field, go ask the bears fans what they think,  

[Back2Buff]

Beane knew what he was getting into when he picked Bernard.  His reliability and play is exactly what he put on tap and the injury report in college.

 

I would personally move on ASAP from Bernard.  He can come in as competition next year, but it better be an open one.  He would be best as a situational back up that doesn't need to be counted on.  A few flash plays every now and then.

So tired of this guy being hurt. He’s a low priority re-sign for me. 

I’m not there “yet”, but we definitely need to prioritize a LB or 2 in the draft.

See?

Looks like Joe A. is going to be playing in Terrel's place. I'm curious to see how he does. He's pretty instinctive, but wearing the green dot is no easy task. Hopefully Terrel is good for the playoffs but I'd like to see Joe step up.

Isn’t this contributing to my point?  
 

Those teams lose.  Including the Chiefs.  
 

The healthiest best team left wins.

You are forgetting that this is all just a trick to get AJ Klein out of a family vacation again.

[Dillenger4]

Dorian and Milano time. Hit hard, win big!

It'd be cool if Buffalo Joe somehow plays exceptional this weekend and gets some playoff time as a backup. Like when we are up by 24 points on the Steelers in round 2. Oh yeah, i said it! Superbowl baby!!!!!! let's gooooooooooo BILLZ  buh buh buh buh buh buh billszzzzzzzz

Hate what were going to see with see with 4 quarters of pounding from Henry.

Seems like we'll see more 4-3 matchup that game and potentially throughout the playoffs.  At least i hope thats the case

[JGMcD2]

He’s practicing today. We can stop with the “sky is falling” and “time to move on” replies. 
 

***** relax.

And of course Thad Brown is a clown 🤡 again. Stop listening to him. I told you he was fine and they're just resting him for the playoffs.
