Ed Oliver in walking boot..per Matt Parrino

I agree with this. But if we're sitting him again, do we use up our 3rd and final call up of Zion Logue or do we save that and give Phillips a call up this week? -

We out gained the Ravens I don't care if we went berserk with 4 minutes left after 60 minutes we had more yards -
Do The Bills Have A Passing Game Problem?
Richard Noggin replied to BillsFan130's topic in The Stadium Wall
Lots of good stuff in here. However, the section I emboldened and enlarged is really dissonant. "Cover zero" is not a way to "keep everything in front of you." AT ALL. So I agree that teams are throwing all kinds of aggressive defensive schemes at the Bills offense, including cover zero pressure packages that are the OPPOSITE, philosophically, of backing off and ensuring the offense operates underneath. Those 2-deep shells we started to see often a few years ago are still prevalent, but are by no means the primary way defenses play the Bills, and especially 6- and 7-man blitzes are not at all similar to those previous deep "shell" coverages designed to put a lid on deep passing attacks. Defenses are utilizing a variety of approaches, including ultra aggressive looks that leave one or zero deep zone defenders. The Bills/Allen have chosen thus far to NOT challenge these looks with passes over the top. I don't disagree that the Bills have some WRs who COULD get behind such aggressive defensive looks, to be fair. But for whatever reason, aggressive man coverage is effectively discouraging any on-time, deep/intermediate passing game. -

It's also not the philosophy I would choose. But it starts as @Kirby Jackson has laid out with talent acquisition. Because to be the more expansive, downfield passing version of the Bills you are going to need more explosiveness outside. That isn't Mack Hollins, or Keon Coleman or even for all of his skills Khalil Shakir, or by drafting a pass catching tight end in round one like Dalton Kincaid. Even Josh Palmer I said when we signed him is like the mininum standard attempt at doing it. He was like acceptable baseline. With the current talent mix on this roster they are playing the right kind of offense and they are staying aggressive enough within that system that with Josh's skillset it is allowing them to score 30 per game. Which is no mean feat. But if I was building this roster I'd have put a higher priority on getting explosive pass catchers. I wanted to draft Christian Watson. I wanted to trade up for Jordan Addison. I wanted to trade up for Brian Thomas Jnr. What I did not want our offensive draft capital spent on was a tight end and a non-separating big body receiver. But that is what we got. -

The positive of Palmer here is erased by confirmation that Keon Coleman is still trying to find a way to separate from a lamppost. -
Sounds like a classic Beane class. The Bills are one of the best day 3 drafting teams in football which as I jave said before is testament to their road scouts. Because day 3 is where you get to guys that the GM and Assistant GM have probably watched relatively little of. The scout evaluations count for much more.

Yea agree if there is any doubt give him one more week. Get him 100% for New England who will try and test the centre of our line. -
You are not in power if the Fins have already run the clock out. You walk off the field at HT with 3 timeouts in your pocket. As it happened you used them and the Fins still ran the clock out but make no mistake the plan for the Fins on that drive was score (TD or FG) AND leave no time. The only way the Bills could stop that was stop the clock and make a play on defense. The play on defense was the bit that let them down. Not the clock management.

If Ed is good to go for the Saints game, I would still let him rest and let the rookies get their reps. We SHOULD be able to win that one without him. -
Sure. Thry have kept 11 before. But there are just no other easy positions to nick a spot from. The way I see it there are only four options: - The two special teams DBs (Franklin & Codrington) - A non-special teams DB (and I agree with you Ingram is probably most at risk) - A defensive lineman (which means Ogonjobi, Epensea or Soloman) - A wide receiver (where they are probably one heavy compared to normal which means Samuel) They are not cutting a running back, a tight end, an offensive lineman, a linebacker or a specialist. And I very much doubt they take all three from the DB room (so Codrington, Franklin AND Ingram). So then it becomes what can you live without... an 11th DL or a 6th WR?

You do realize this from 2008 had nothing to do with Trump? Those involved in the prosecutors office stated this decision came from "above their pay grade". Epstien was an intelligence operative. Working for who is the question. Most likely CIA and Mossad. That's what is being protected. Protecting the existence and any disclosure of the operation. Who authorized it, controlled it, how policy was shaped by extortion, to what end, and in who's interest. Most likely Isreal. That's the secret being protected.

Jimmy Kimmel Canceled

That's 'almost' a fair point, but it is nothing of the sort. When we have late-night comedian, Jimmy Kimmel, exercising his power over other's right to free speech in this country, then let's talk. Until then, stop posting every stupid thing you see. -
Not in the least does it seem weird. Kinda like some of us aren't gonna comment on how a certain dear leader was somehow oblivious to a child sex-trafficking operation on the pride and joy of his home-base operations. None of it seems weird to those of us willing to duck at all costs, but it does seem criminal to the rest of us.

OMG that guy is creeping me out. I think I need a TBD restraining order. I still have to read him when quoted. Please don't quote him Leo. He thinks he is the smartest guy in the room. He hates me, I pity him. To live life obsessing over someone he has never met is not healthy. He reads unhinged in his opinions where Im concerned hey @boyst why not focus that Lazer focused perception back on yourself and see what you see. in Yourself and less on me. Seek help. The personal attacks on me reflect more negatively on YOU than they do on me. You sound obsessed.. it a creepy sad look. -
