Years ago. Tackling has been an issue for a long time.

I was a fan when he got here. Glad when he left. Glad he’s saying the right things and so I’m glad he’s back. Go Bills!

Here’s my understanding of injuries that happen because of contact… you have to have contact. The more hits you take whether in the pocket, scrambling, or getting coffee will increase your risk for getting hurt. Josh is an amazing player, a totally unique player in my 50+ years of watching football, but he will get hurt (and already has been hurt) if he doesn’t make smarter decisions when avoiding contact is an option. Sometimes you can’t and that’s the game. But when you can, get down. You see receivers do it regularly. The coaching staff is complicit too. I hate the designed runs with him carrying the ball. Be smart=play longer. When he dives over three guys to score in the Super Bowl, I’ll be all for it. Until then avoid hits.

I agree with all your examples and remember yelling at the TV myself during some them. If they decided it’s four down territory and have second down and two or three, I’m running three times to get two yards. But, that’s me and maybe you, but not how Dorsey is seeing it. There’s always second guessing when things don’t work. If they ran three times and got stuffed the story would be why didn’t they throw it. I see what i would define as questionable decisions every weekend with all teams including coaches like Reid and Bellycheat. Clock mismanagement is rampant across the league IMO, but as another poster stated this may be some analytics thing. I’d rather have more downs (chances) to score even with less or no timeouts. Ultimately, what I’m saying is the Bills screw up sometimes but so does everyone else. Winning washes away everything. Reid was a big loser in Philly. Couldn’t win the big one. Now that narrative has changed completely. The Bills story for this year has yet to written.

People forget that the NFL season is a long and bumpy road. The BIlls are very well coached team and it's obvious if you watch the NFL at all. That doesn't mean that every decision or call is perfect. People get too caught up in stupid narratives that are meaningless. This is the best team that the Bills have had in the JA era IMO. If they get healthy come playoff time anything is possible.

Bo rounds, anyone?

Seems like a great dude. He may be the ultimate process guy. Worked at Bojangles during an offseason to learn the business. Got to respect that.

Yes, I think it has a lot to do with returning punts, and secondly adds more versatility to the offense.

Phillips is my favorite guy on D. Love what Beane did with the D-line this year. Hopefully they can stay healthy the rest of the year. If the offense stays consistent, this will be the unit that gets us over the top. Gotta say that GB running so much was because they were scared to pass. Rodgers was going to get killed and they knew it. That was GB's business decision. While I'm not happy about the rushing yards given up, I'm not worried about that yet. It was a blow out game that only our offensive struggles in the second half made look closer than it really was.

Yeah, I agree with that. Lots of pressure to have the perfect ending for Brady if they made the Super Bowl. However, now that he’s splitting with the wife, he doesn’t have to retire to make her happy. Didn’t he say once that he wanted to play until he was 50?

I would guess they didn’t miss it, they ignored it.

You’ve seen movies where they catch the spy and then torture him to make him talk? He endures pulled finger nails, broken bones, etc. After tons of punishment, the guy cracks and talks. I tell my wife, you know the guy should have just spilled the beans in the beginning and saved all the torture. He ends up in the same place. That’s Tua. He probably won’t retire but he’s made of glass and he’s going to have an injury riddled career, whether with concussions or other injuries. Either way, he’s not really built to take football punishment.

With the quality, or lack thereof, of the run blocking it's unfair to make judgments about the backs on this team. For myself, when I see any of the backs currently on the roster have an actual hole to run through they run hard and gain yards. There has to be some push upfront. Short yardage situations are concerning and they were a concern last year too. I thought Saffold was supposed to help in that area (run blocking). I haven't noticed that they run to his side on short yardage, but have no info on that. This short yardage run problem has to be fixed before playoff time.

Anybody who has any doubts can watch this. He loses he "hypothetical" premise as he talks about what happened. Anybody who knows anything about this case knows he was the murderer. Total POS.

Buckwheat lived across the street?! Otay!

Cleveland+Carolina= two teams that can’t complete a pass.

Remember the “good old days?” There were years my rooting interest on offense was trying to get a first down. Now if we don’t score every drive I think somethings wrong. It’s easy to get spoiled quick. Gotta love it!

It was a great throw. Both long balls (Davis and Diggs) were perfectly imperfect throws. Both throws were slightly underthrown but allowed the receiver to adjust and make the play. These were the kind of throws that Josh might have launched early in his career and would end up incomplete. Now, he's giving the receivers a chance. Trust and let players make plays.

This is what we look like with a legitimate pass rush. And not just Miller. Looking at you J. Phillips!

And if that is correct that her lawyer suspected no criminal charges were coming maybe the Bills were under the same impression, hence the problematic “thorough” comment.

My take was the statement that they had done a thorough investigation was the big misstep. I think they were fine waiting on possible charges. They can’t predict what other people are going to do or determine the veracity of accusations. As for getting a call from the looney-tune lawyer, how are they supposed to judge that. The guy still makes no sense. I do think it’s telling that no criminal charges have been filed to date. It doesn’t appear to be an open and shut case as much as her lawyer would pretend it is.

Polygraphs are very accurate but not foolproof. That they’re not 100% accurate is why they aren’t allowed in court.

I wouldn’t think they’d want to sign him until he’s totally healthy and that will be later if it happened at all.

Yes, and seems like not much from camp that I have seen.

Amen on Tasker. He needs to focus on quality not quantity. Talks way too much.
