It's fair to criticize the run defense but holy ***** Derrick Henry was a man on a mission tonight and I do not think there is a QB/RB combo that's more of a run threat in the league. Like, historically good.

Yeah I noticed it. I tried to not read too much into it coming in but man things really broke the Bills way this weekend. It's one game, but the Bills have an easier schedule to start this year while the Ravens and Chiefs are due against each other soon there's a chance the Bills take an early lead and never let go.

Yeah a little slow (ducks) but this is exactly the hope of his ceiling could be

He was killing me earlier but if he keeps up on that holy crap

Am I stoned? *Looks at what I chugged at halftime* Yes, but this game is drunker

Honestly I think there's odds he is a healthy scratch. I was listening to the Cover One preview and right now the Ravens biggest D weakness is boundary corner. I can see attacking a lot with Moore because he has that vert speed

It appears Large Scale Doom might have been too generous a prediction for the Dolphins

All caveats apply with Week 1 being a liar. But if Miami is having problems with Indy we might be looking at Large Scale Doom in South Beach

I'm pretty high on the young players in general but I think Walker might be something special.

Honestly I'm with you. I'm very high on the Bills young players but they definitely didn't seem ready in preseason. Baltimore is a good team and their playstyle is a natural counter to ours. This is what I'm telling myself: KC just lost and will likely be without their best receivers while the play Philly, Baltimore and Detroit. Baltimore is notorious for being their own worst enemy and are in the most competitive division in the conference. I want the Bills to win. I think they *can* win. But if they don't tonight they have until November until the next time they face a team that has a winning record in 2024 to road test a young roster, and bring back people from suspension and injury. It's giving me a surprising amount of calm that I am sure will vanish the moment the refs hose us on a call

Honestly my best hope is that while they bounce back if they can rack up some early losses the Bills can build a lead on them so that the KC vs Bills match could theoretically shut the door on their hopes of the 1 seed

I'd argue it's a quintessential Elam performance: impressive athleticism and playmaking ability interspersed with giving up huge plays

No. But you can listen to the live streams and time it with RedZone, then once the game is over I can replay it. If I am missing it it's because I'm taking care of the kids and I can watch the full thing when I want that night.

To this point, one of the things that has come out of released NFL documents is that the league has had several opportunities to move to host their own affordable and legal streaming service. Hell, they operate NFL+ and stream Redzone. We know they have the capacity. They don't want to do it. They want their product to be a premium subscription like HBO and conveniently seem to miss how that's going right now Honestly, I've made my peace with it for now. I know I evangelize NFL+ Premium, but I legitimately enjoy the radio stream more than some of the TV announcers and matched with RedZone I sometimes actually feel like I know what's happening better. I'm looking at less than a third of games at the 1 pm slot, and the Bills are a major draw at the 4 pm time not to mention all the primetime. I don't *need* to pirate right now But I'm not going to say boo to anyone who does

Guys it's football week!

Honestly that would explain why he was getting turfed so much in preseason. It's a shame but TJ and Walker seem more than capable to fill in

Maybe I'm crazy but I actually think they look cool. Scratch that. I'm DEFINITELY crazy because I'm on here but I still think they look cool.

Honestly my biggest surprise is both Shavers and Moore. I know they have very different skill set but I thought it would be one or the other

I'm a little surprised that they kept both Shavers and Moore. I know theyre very different players

Do we have any word at all on the final roster?

I know most people here would blanch at safety in the first round but I really think we need an elevation there.

For me the biggest surprise that Gore is still there. I mean hells yeah, let's have a stable but RB4 seems like an easy one. Maybe they are going to try to stash him with the extra spots and then waive him when guys return because rosters are set

Honestly he earned it

I also wouldn't rule out something like a Curtis Samuel trade for cap dump. If I read the math right trading him would free up $7 million and be the roster spot that we use to keep Shavers and we swap late round picks

Look if we are going to get nitpicky, how is Walker looking at taking over a spot compared to every other rookie? Hairston was duking it out with Tre before he got hurt. Sanders is the closest and is still well behind Oliver for the spot. He's spent a lot of time on the turf Landon Jackson had some tough early preseason moments. Everyone else is depth right now. This isn't to be Debbie Downer on our rookies. I think you are going to see upgrades on a roster that was already very good by the end of the year. But for all the very real flaws I think Walker is the closest to breaking out
