I agree. Surely a 7th Rounder is a better shot. Or an Andy Daulton type.

Good day to be Mike White

 

I did NOT see that coming.  Who did they cut?

Morrow

 

Woah!  I guess that answers one question of whether they see him as a viable backup LB.  Wonder if they put him on the practice squad?

 

Either way, now we have even fewer LB and less depth.

They must really love him. Seems like alot of hassle so he can play in a meaningless game

Have you witnessed Morrow play? If the Bills got down to him playing meaningful time in the playoffs they would have been cooked anyway.

Could it just be that they want to make sure that Trubisky is healthy for the playoff run too?

 

Give Josh one series to keep his consecutive streak alive. Play Mitch for a couple of series (or to halftime) for a little warm-up. Then get him out (avoid injury) and play Mike white the rest of the way. Plus, McD did say they want to see what they have in some of their younger/PS players. Maybe they want to see more of Mike running their offense, just to know what he's capable of here (though they did already give him an extension, so they must like something that he's bringing to the table).

I think Sunday will play out kinda like you described. Josh very briefly. Mitch til half, maybe a series or two coming out of the half then White the rest of the way.

 

I also think Mitch and White will be in a QB battle for 1 spot next off season. Winner is the backup, loser is cut/traded. I think Buffalo grabs a different (younger) QB for the practice squad.

I must be the only person other than Mikey that liked Life cereal, although I put a ton of sugar on it to make it bearable.

I used to like Life, to me it was sweet as it already had added sugar, I cant imagine putting more sugar on it.  Like taking frosted pop tarts and adding jelly on top.

Funny, I remember looking at the list of contents and sugar was 2nd on the list but put sugar on it anyway

I feel like I'd take White over Trubisky.   Watched Mitch with Pitt and it was truly terrible.   White had some moments with the Jets.  Not all good mind you.

The chances of a 7th rounder outplaying Mike White as a rookie are slim.

Or "Try it, you'll like it," for the older crowd.

Agree.  Unless some money is guaranteed, then NFL contracts are really one way.  Either Trubisky or White can be released in 2025 with no consequence.  I doubt that it means much, why upset a well-functioning QB room right before the playoffs by telling Trubisky he is on the way out?  That would be bad karma.

I missed watching the Ravens beat-down where he played the most, but it was noticable that even when Bernard went down again for a game and Spector was injured, the Bills didn't put him on the field again. And he's been waived and cut twice.

Which sort of speaks to your point.

 

It sort of reminds me of last year's path for AJ Klein, and we all know Klein wound up playing most of the WC round and starting at MLB in the division round - and that didn't go to well.

 

The thing is, with Bernard nursing a couple injuries at this point (ankle and now quad) and Spector on IR and unavailable, it would be kind of nice to have SOME option beyond Ulofoshio

Way to get around having him be available to play this Sunday as likely wouldn't have called him up from PS

[PoundingDog]

Trubisky is terrible. Even in the pre-season game in Pittsburgh. White is going to be cheaper and equally capable as Mitch.

Josh going Hollywood and signing with the Rams this off-season. His new wife said it's too cold in Buffalo. Mitch and Mike White battle in camp for starting gig. 8-9 for the next 20 years of my life
