If you are cutting Hamlin, do it now...

Man I hope that’s not the standard now for what we look for at safety. -
Good Night / Bad Night - Pre-season Game 2
frostbitmic replied to GunnerBill's topic in The Stadium Wall
As my wife noted last night the players looked tired (Saw Bosa yawning on the sideline and M.White yawn on the field) They looked bored, and they looked like they'd rather be anywhere other than right there right then. Robbins made the team ... No one else did... 24, 74, 44, 43 & 29 looked particularly bad. Maybe the practices with the Bears were good but last night other than Robbins making the team the only other things they could've possibly learned was how bad they are at Safety without Rapp, where was Forrest ? -
Another one - Trey Hendrickson asks for a trade from Cincy
dave mcbride replied to Roundybout's topic in The Stadium Wall
This is simply not true. He wants a LOT of money. Rather than saying the cap doesn’t matter, show me a path to getting there, bearing in mind the restructures they’ve already done to get under the cap. -
Preseason Week 2 Bills at Bears - Game thread
gonzo1105 replied to HappyDays's topic in The Stadium Wall
Yup I tried to say the same thing in the thread but no one wants to hear it. The Bears literally had veterans of the NFL who started games like Bagent, Bates etc playing in the game with high upside guys like Burden and Austin Booker in the game versus guys who won’t be here in two weeks . Even starting the game there was a very heavy rotation of bottom of the roster guys playing versus their starters. Bishop and Hamlin were bad but it’s kind of hard to be good when Andreessen was awful in Coverage and Jenkins was the other starting LB who won’t make the team etc -
Does there need to be a rethinking of the basic D?

Not panicking at all. Just an observation that teams might be seeing an opening for the shorter, quicker routes against our D. -

They won't cut Bishop but if starts we're in trouble.... haven't seen enough of Foster... he may be the answer thus season, Hancock ready to move in next season. -
Good Night / Bad Night - Pre-season Game 2
juno999 replied to GunnerBill's topic in The Stadium Wall
You’re right about Hardy. He is buried on the depth chart. Iirc Couch was dinged up in practice earlier in the week. Don’t know if he was in the joint practice with the Bears. -

The problem is as athletes, put guys got the crap best put of them. They didn't win ther 1 on 1's very often at all. -

if you cut anyone its Dane Jackson -
What one player acquired in a trade would guarantee a championship?
Gregg replied to RangerDave's topic in The Stadium Wall
Bill Belichick. He would build a defense that would actually make a stop in a big spot which is something that never happens in McDermott land. -

Good Night / Bad Night - Pre-season Game 2
juno999 replied to GunnerBill's topic in The Stadium Wall
To me, it looked like the Bills were trying to evaluate bottom of the 53 roster spots the entire game. As you pointed out above, some good individual performances and too much bad. -

The Bills had no desire to do anything last night. There were multiple times they were playing the Leslie Frazier off coverage on 3rd and 3 or playing press man cover 1 and there were about 4 or 5 times they ran a basic zone blitz where they dropped D lineman into coverage and left them on an island. They wanted to try things last night and put it on film -

Gregg replied to oldmanfan's topic in The Stadium Wall
Wait until next week when they play the Bucs. These teams meet in the regular season, so I expect both teams to have a very "vanilla" game plan for this one. -
I don't care about your opinion. Go away.

I beg of you, for the sake of all that's holy, please confine the mentioning of John Prine to music threads!

SoonerBillsFan replied to oldmanfan's topic in The Stadium Wall
What new system? Nothing out of camp has suggested anything new. Oh that's right, McDermott has his own alternate universe pocket where he take the defense at night and trains the new defense. -
I think one big factor is Buffalo's weather reputation. You can put a dome in, but who wants to schedule a winter event when there's a real risk of no one being able to get there or get out through feet of snow? Syracuse gets more snow but Buffalo and snow are more ingrained in the national psyche. I do think if they had built downtown or closer to the Falls it would have been a dome, optimally by the Falls. A lot easier to sell an event there, especially with Toronto closer. Ok, l appreciate your perspective. 👍 Haslam is putting in an entire community there. Condos/apartments and retail. Part of why he left the lakefront, I suspect.

Elijah Moore.......I think he is trending toward not making the roster
MDH replied to Special K's topic in The Stadium Wall
It’s hard to get a read on these things outside of the building. It’s possible Moore could be cut but here’s a quote from Joe Buscaglia’s Atlantic article about the joint practice on Friday. I’m not sure how much Moore’s performance in pre-season game 2 without Allen will impact things. I do think that McD is getting frustrated with Samuel’s continued absence though.
