Our best, slightly realistic, hope is that Beane is able to pry away Chris Olave from the Saints. Then, hopefully, Gabe Davis is getting close. The two of them then replace two thirds of Elijah Moore, Tyrell Shavers, and Curtis Samuel's roster spots on the 53. Options like A.J. Brown, Jaylen Waddle, and Garrett Wilson aren't real options. The first being unavailable outside of Fantasy and the latter two no way being traded to us if they are available. Outside of Olave, I think we're looking at Jakobi Meyers, Rashid Shaheed (for his deep threat ability), Calvin Ridley, or Jerry Jeudy as the only options with a sliding scale of possibility. Olave to me is the lone realistic big fish. But any of them would at least be upgrades over what we have. Although I fear Beane, with the hardcore stance he took this off-season about WR, won't do anything beyond bring up Gabe when he's healthy bc he'd have to admit he was wrong. I hope I'm wrong tho. Said it once, I'll say it a million times, two weeks before the deadline - everyone's going to publicly say that the players who's names are being floated out there in the press are "unavailable". That doesn't mean that all of them really are. It means some of them are playing the game and hoping someone will throw a bigger offer at them to "change their mind". A lot of them really aren't. Specifically A.J. Brown. But there's no way there won't be a single WR moved at the Trade Deadline, regardless of what they're all saying now.

You’re right , and it doesn’t appear there’s one available. The rest of this season is looking like a referendum on Beane’s roster building failures. Hoping I’m wrong and it’s their annual October swoon/ lack of focus. This feels different though.

Going forward, when we run zone, I don't want to see CBs 8 yards off the receivers with safeties so far back they’re not even in the picture. Get up on these receivers and challenge them. Give your DL a fighting chance to get in the backfield and make a play. It shouldn’t be pitch and catch for the offense and that’s exactly what it has been with these cushions. If Rapp is still starting, play him in the box. I’d rather have a high variance defense that causes havoc but gets burned once in awhile, versus one that allows consistent yardage and bends then ultimately breaks anyway. Bring heat up front, but have the backend play more aggressive.

Many such cases. Hiring a fired HC to be a coordinator often leads to good results.

I smell a disappointing upset next Sunday. I mean, we should win it, but I think our Legion of Room defense is gonna lay another egg when it comes to getting off the field. It pains me to say... Bills 23 Panthers 27

I need another week off

I'm more depressed seeing Atlanta only score 10 points. This Bills team has massive issues in all three phases of the game. We have all probably vastly overrated this roster due to Allen bailing them out over and over. We are now seeing just how poorly the roster is built and how pedestrian at best McDermott is. So of course, I just bought my tickets and flying down for the game! Any Charlotte TBD members with good restaurant recommendations?

Did you mansplain what an Irish Goodbye is on a WNY sports forum?

Seems to me that Mac Jones and Brock Purdy are pretty much equal. Part of that is the plug and play Shanahan offense of course.

Correct .. never had a qb

Yes. In a second.

Christ, no! I can just imagine the conversation at One Bills Drive: "McDaniel is an offensive genius! We can go heavy on defensive picks. Fast, compact, agile picks!" * McDaniel will have Josh Allen throwing those 'very catchable' balloon balls that Tua throws. 🤨

If we don’t trade for a massive talent infusion at WR, I fear this year is DOA

I would like a Joshua Palmer update. He almost looked like he was gonna go back in the game last week when they were taping up his ankle but in McDermott's Monday presser I thought I remembered McDermott lumping him in with the week to week injuries. I could be wrong about that and hope to be corrected. With that said, it really looked like Palmer was poised for a breakout game. Unlocking him and getting the chemistry going between him and Josh would be awesome. I just keep going back to how Aikman and Buck in the broadcast were talking about how Bills staff discovered Palmer is a lot faster than they originally thought...

I watch what people do and say. And I stand corrected about Glen Greenwald. He's a self-hating foot fetishist. He could learn a thing or two from Sexy Rexy. By the way, Boots (the series) is getting more into the gay thing and unfortunately is getting less interesting and less plausible. Too bad. Remember, JD served honorably in the same manner as Al Gore - as a military news man and body man for the brass.

I blame mostly the Supreme Court for this state of affairs, as they are fundamentally changing the long-understood relationship between Congress and the White House.

I know almost nobody here seems to care about the political process. But I'm gonna put my faith in @sherpa and @Homelander in this particular discussion. Q. Why is this shutdown/continuing resolution different and more difficult to resolve? A. Because no matter what Senate Republicans and Democrats agree to, Trump has decided that he has the power to unilaterally ignore the parts of any spending agreement that he doesn't like. And these are, of course, the Democratic priorities. So let's say Thune and Schumer agree to a partial restoration of Obamacare subsidies that does include some partial reimbursement to hospitals providing ER services to aliens in exchange for reopening the government at otherwise current spending levels. Then Trump decides to to send those reimbursements to the hospitals ("impoundment" in government nomenclature). The Anti-Impoundment Act says he can't do that; White House lawyers say that may not be enforceable as an improper restraint on presidential powers, and the Supreme Court seems ready to agree. So you cut a deal where each side gives up something in exchange for something else, but you're left with a totally one-sided deal. How can you bargain like this? It's like making a bet where one guy reserves the right to not pay up if he loses. This was the Supreme Court's logic when they shot down the line item veto. A bill is the result of political compromise, and a president lining out the things his party doesn't like and keeping in the stuff they do totally destroys the bargaining process.

@The 9 Isles Please change title to “at least we aren’t the dolphins”

Personally I think McDaniel and Grier deserve several more years to right the ship. Don’t fire them Ross!

Match made in heaven.

Who would win in a Basketball game between the Buffalo Bills and Buffalo Sabres, if the Ohio State football players were the refs and Josh Allen and Tage Thompson switched squads?

PUSH PLAY !

We see proof that it is at least twice a day.
