See all of the productive discussion this act has created? 😄 Now everyone will join hands and look for solutions together to this problem... Or maybe it's made them more entrenched than ever in their beliefs and less likely to work together to find a solution. Just doing SOMETHING doesn't mean that you're helping. Typically, insulting entire populations is not a positive step towards real change.

I'm talking specifically about the first part of the season. As you mentioned, he won't be there.

I know that this won't be a popular opinion, but to have a good pass rush you need players that can consistently defeat 1v1 blocking. You can't rely on fooling people with schemes because that doesn't work vs good teams and top QBs. Right now, the Bills have 1 (Hughes) or maybe 2 (K Williams- if he comes back fully from his knee injury which has yet to be seen) who can do this. That's not enough to generate a strong pass rush in the NFL.

No. One of the funniest looking players in the NBA

I don't think so. The actual rule was posted in the other thread. It says that any contact to the knees, even if it begins above the knees and slides down, is illegal. By the rule, it looked like a penalty. Although the rule itself may be questionable.

I heard that every time you break a bone it comes back stronger than before. If that's true his back should be unbreakable at this point.

Pretty soon this article needs to be moved to the politics forum doesn't it?

And Polish Americans and Irish Americans share October and Irish American history month is in March. But only black american history month is taught in schools- at least the ones around here. Not Native American, Irish, Italian, Polish or any other that I'm aware of. So if a student complains that they only get one month, as in the example that started all of this, then to respond that they are lucky to have one celebrated is not inappropriate, IMO. Are you saying that the student was correct and they deserve more? If so, why and to what purpose?

When is native american history month?

This is true, but it's fun to watch and this is entertainment after all. What do a bunch of women on the sidelines jumping around and shaking their breasts have to do with sports? Same thing.

I don't agree with saying or doing this, but it's his opinion and right to do so. It's probably going to end up being counterproductive as it hardens views on all sides and prevents people from finding real solutions. But that's probably less important to him than feeling like a revolutionary.

You wonder if teams wouldn't be better off dropping 8 and 9 men into coverage more often and blitzing far less. Only problem is that you can't really do too much to the receivers either anymore. So, when you can't hit the QB, can't hit the WRs and the OL can hold then it becomes tough to defend the pass.

Meanwhile, TEs get their knees taken out and RBs get body slammed with no reaction. The double standard with respect to QBs is out of control.

They were both clean as far as I could tell.

I wish the Bills had made it honestly. They have such a need for pass rushing LBs right now. Why not take a chance? On the cusp of making the playoffs? Maybe. On the cusp of a championship? No.

Harsh but true.

He's borderline. He has a lot of drops. A lot. If you mean dumpster diving through other teams cuts then I'm sure they will. There's not a high chance of finding something that way but it can be done.

You should go talk to the Bills. You could save them a lot of money on training staff, MRIs, medical evaluations, etc.

Beat me to it.

Interestingly, I remember that SJ has quite a few posters on TBD calling for him to play more. I never saw anything in him but apparently they did. I don't hear the same clamor for the guys you just mentioned. Honestly, I'd rather have Goodwin for 4 games than one of them for 16.

I'm not sure I see anything in Dez Lewis that would lead me to try and get him on the practice squad, but if he's the best out there then you gotta have bodies available.

Didn't he make the team a couple of years ago without playing at all in the preseason? Personally, I agree with this. I'm not sure if Goodwin can stay healthy for most of a season, but until there is someone on the roster who shows greater potential then you might as well keep him.

Another offseason victory.

That's what this guy said, but who knows. http://miamiherald.typepad.com/dolphins_in_depth/2016/08/mario-williams-dolphins-debut-leads-to-questions.html
