Cody Ford just signed a new 2 year deal in Cincinnati . This guy can play RG, LT and even some TE. A real steal... https://www.bengals.com/news/bengals-extend-cody-ford-2025

Sorry, but playing your favorite song doesn't wake you up when knocked out...smelling salts tend to. Do I agree with banning them, not really. But comparing to listening to a song doesn't compare.

As I go-I-Ow-ow through life, this is my man:

They are all reasonable calls, though I still think the Bills got all three of those decisions right. Jerry did have a good first year in Houston, yep, the Bills were just ready to move on and given his age I don't blame them. Worth remembering that Dodson did get benched and traded midway through the season by Seattle. I think a tad unfairly and he did rebound well in Miami but I think he basically played the same level as his final year in Buffalo. They knew what they had in Dodson he was just not a starter here but good enough to be one and about to be paid like one. Quinton Jefferson, yep. He had two years as a starter - one in Vegas and one for the Jets. Again, I think he was basically the same guy he was here but playing as a full time starter rather than a rotational depth guy.

The Bills gave up fourteen sacks in 2024 of which, per PFF, six were credited against the offensive line (3 Dion, 2 Spencer and 1 Edwards) the rest were either on Josh for holding the ball too long or were from blitzes. But you are right, Josh avoids sacks at a remarkable rate so it's worth looking at pressures too. The Bills starting five offensive linemen played 94 games combined in 2024 (regular and post season) and gave up 149 pressures - down from 182 in 2023 - broken down as: 45 Cybo, 30 Edwards, 27 McGovern, 25 Dion, 22 Spencer. To give some league wide context I have compared the numbers for the two lines I consider were clearly better than the Bills in 2024 - Eagles and Lions. There was then a gaggle of teams in that second tier with Buffalo - Buccs, Broncos, Vikings - where you can make an argument about who was better but I think Philly and Detroit were the two that were the class of the league. So Philly's starting five offensive linemen played 93 games combined in 2024 (regular and post season) and gave up 134 pressures. Detroit's starting five offensive linemen played 78 games combined in 2024 (regular and post season.... fewer cos they went 1 and done in the playoffs) and gave up 145 pressures. That context supports the assertion that the Bills line is pretty good. It's one of the best in the NFL. But it isn't all world and, frankly, in a salary cap era building that kind of line is next to impossible.

Oh man, I'll die with a scarred chin from this band hahaha. Possibly a scarred soul. short story, I got blasted in the mosh pit from a flying elbow. I had no idea I'd gotten hit so bad, then saw a cute chick and tried to 'put my best foot forward', if you will. I had absolutely no idea I had blood streaming down my front. My "friends" were watching all this and laughing their asses off. I could see them watching me hit on this girl, but what absolute #######s!

I took that as reference any geeky science class assuming/knowing Josh is not an engineer. So Dion spends his money burning through tires daily with cars that he probably does not drive on the road? That building has his name on it. I found that who scene to be a little weird.

Good first episode, enjoyed the Josh part, the Tre and Dion parts were good. Will be interesting to see where they go with the other players they choose to feature. It'll be hard for them to really feature any fringe players as this team is pretty solid. I would assume next episode features more of the rookies.

Jerry Hughes, I'd argue. They expected him to fall off a cliff. He didn't. Tyrel Dodson, maybe. His first year away was really good. Quinton Jefferson, probably. Can't think of anyone else, or anyone who hasn't been mentioned.

Ya, but anyone catch the mistake Pegula named when talking about it? He asked Josh if he remembered that from his thermodynamics class in college. It isn't thermodynamics, it's aerodynamics, unless they are including some heat source. Josh's gravity explanation made up for the poor Pegula science.

I think the absolute best outcome for the NFL in the coming years is we get back to 1880's-1930's football. It's either that or flag. I can't wait!!

Who was the guy on the scooter waiving slowly - or just holding his hand up? I found that hysterical- but couldn’t tell who he was.

Good for me I like the Kings. ) Dodgers Kings, but first and always beyond question, The Bills

I haven't been in on the meetings, but it sounds reasonable. Our OlL is such an interesting thing to watch- there's no way I can look at their pass protection and deny that Josh has ducked the ever living out of blown isht left and right- they are not that great of a unit in pass protection But they've maybe flowed well with the style he brings, and they've mostly done very well with the run game- and definitely been extraordinary at times. And we can't count on them at others- it's not a power-run unit. i definitely wouldn't trade our line, but I'm certainly not thinking all-world.

Unlike the Sabres, where just about every player who leaves, win the Cup

He was huge back in the day- I hear stories. Now hes cleaned up, hes married, and he is a counseler the next town over. His brother Michael is an idiot meathead trying to make a living off Chris's talent. He has this stupid local radio show A peanut stick doughnut is a delicious WNY staple! Ive never seen that doughnut anywhere else, and that is the best doughnut I have ever had!

He was traded- I botched the whole thread up )

Yea Teller was the one big mistake they have made with one of their own guys. He was a victim of their lack of a clear plan on the OL before coach Kro returned. I think he was drafted for Juan Castillo's scheme, they didn't think he fitted Bobby Johnson's and he got lost in the shuffle but the truth is Beane was all over the map before Kromer on the type of linemen he was bringing in. He was trying to cobble together five guys with totally different styles built to play in totally different schemes. They have been sooooo much better and more consistent in their approach to OL talent since Kromer. Shows what a difference a quality position coach with a clear sense of what his scheme requires can make.

All Pro right ?

The Bills problem, or more likely the deep-rooted fan problem, is that we need a bulletproof team. We're the same as any other very good team - we've got brutally undeniable strengths, and we've got flaws. And we need the right players to make the amazing happen at the right times, just like any other top team. The talent is here

feel like Bills heavily restricted their access And I'm fine with that, i like that they didn't let them in the locker room or meetings

Yea I actually think if Cook does walk after this year Etienne as a FA reclamation project isn't the worst idea. I think he has the explosiveness, better top end speed and similar patience in terms of hitting the hole. On the downside, he doesn't have Cook's vision, has similar pass blocking limitations and the same tendency for concentration drops in the pass game. I also know, for a fact, Etienne was high on the Bills board in that 2021 draft. I believe, although don't know, that if both he and Groot were there they'd have taken Groot but in a world where Groot wasn't there and Etienne was he'd have been the pick. Taking James Cook who was like a less polished version of that skillset a year later in round 2 was not surprising.

Is the argument that the players who leave the Bills generally suck? Because I haven't seen a single one of our current players win a Super Bowl here.
