I don't see a trade for Barkley happening. He's making around $7M this year and the Bills have about $1.5M in cap space. Beane would have to move more money into future years to make it happen. I could see them trying to sign OBJ but that could be difficult financially and he'll have a bunch of interest.

The short answer I believe is they think Cam Lewis can play safety if needed. The longer answer is they are hoping that guys return to the lineup w/o further injuries, they are tight in the cap, they like Cam Lewis, and they may get Benford reps at safety once he returns along with everyone else.

No

Yep. McD dropped the td in the end zone, dropped a pick 6, missed a FG, messed up the snap at halftime, gave up the 3rd and 22 conversion. Is it all possible that despite gaining nearly 500 yards in offense that the Bills players just didn't make one more play to win the game. Here's a what if for you - what if the Bills won that game? Would you be blaming McD on a close victory? Maybe your last sentence should have been your only sentence. "However, on the flip side, can anyone blame him for what happened at the Dolphins considering the OL he was behind and, by the second half, he basically had no one to work with?"

He held onto the ball unlike Davis. Try again.

I was thinking same thing about Jordan Phillips

Maybe around the end of regular season. Beane said he had a bit of a setback about a month ago.

Watch the game again. Oline was getting beat bad. Early and often. Spencer Brown was a turnstile. It affected Allen's mental clock I.e. lack of time to go through his progressions.

McD just said Benford is out a couple of weeks. Surgery tomorrow.

I guess Greg Mancz will be put on 53 roster

Are you going to do this all season? Worry about every game and think we are going to lose every game? Breathe man and have some confidence.

The Bills had their 3rd string center in the game for this sequence. If Morse was playing I agree with your point 100%.

At the risk of being trashed, no I wouldn't trade for another coach. BB is 70, Reid is one cheeseburger away from the big one, Harbaugh isn't leaving, and neither is McVay. McD is a good coach and a good guy. I wish he had Shakir active yesterday because they definitely could have used him. Other than that, they were a lot of player mistakes yesterday.

McD is not going anywhere

Listen to his show with Chris Simms. Simms speaks highly of Allen and the Bills. Florio almost always downplays Simms takes and usually goes the other way. I'll admit though Florio took the Bills yesterday.

Well if you listen to his show, he almost never picks the Bills to win. He nitpicks and he's a hater. The last to jump on and the first to jump off.

True dat. Florio hates the Bills.

Yep. They needed 6 or maybe 7 WRs yesterday. I hope they adjust accordingly. Last 2 years early road games at Miami. Wouldn't surprise me if it's three next year.

I was at the Titans game. The scoreboard replay showed an angle of this play where you did not see the guy toe tap his right foot. The crowd went berserk and I believe McD may have been influenced by it. Of course after it was challenged you saw another angle where both feet were in.

Dorsey should have smashed the camera with his tablet! Screen goes black ha ha!

Yep. Dorsey should smash the laptop when they win too! Let him be the OC for a few seasons.

My point is Miami practices in that heat all training camp and preseason and the Bills don't. It's that plain and simple. It's a lot more than just staying hydrated. Here's a real weather example. Back in college went to Disney World around New Years. It was in the low 40s. My brother and I were running around in t shirts and shorts. The native Floridians were wearing winter coats and hats and freezing their asses off. True story

We'll just disagree on the weather issue.

Weather is not weather when you're talking that kind of heat and humidity. Your body actually adjusts to those conditions. Losing fluids to a point where you are cramping up and can't breathe is terrible. It just sucks. I live here in DC and deal with that crap in July and August. I'm guessing you don't live in heat. I was referring to last year's losses. Today was frustrating though.

It was terrible. And the Patriots Monday night game was pretty bad too. It amazes me how this team can look like World beaters one week and then have real clunkers.
