Yep, overall its flown by, but day by day it feels like its taking forever for the season to start. The anticipation is building!

Any unknown that happens in the future that we don't know about is unforeseen. I prefaced my statement with that because as it stands now, he's a lock to make the team. If something else happens, then they'd have to factor it into their decision & evaluate whats best for the team at that point. This whole thread is about predicting what will happen in the future. Given who our WR corps is right now, unless something happens he makes the team. Does that make more sense to you now?

Barring any unforeseen future breakdowns or discipline problems, he is absolutely a lock for the team. Teams just don't part with 2nd round picks in their 2nd year with the team

I had to go on Bleacher Reports twitter account to lay into them too. Bills Mafia doesn't take kindly to dirty rats.

Yeah i liked T.O. when he was here, i wish he would've stayed longer tbh, but i remember I couldn't believe we ever got him here. Quite possibly the biggest name player we've had here in 15 years other than Shady. We even friggin gave T.O. the key to the city too haha... priceless. I wonder if he still has it lol

Reading Kelvin say how he wishes he had a better qb, at least he didnt mention Tyrod in that tweet or his current situation where we don't even know who our starter is gonna be. He was talking about his time in Carolina but it easily could be carried over to his time here

Maybe 10 years ago I was in the camp of lets build a new stadium downtown, it'll help bring back the city. But now I think it just makes more sense to upgrade the current one. Our Country is bankrupt, our State is essentially bankrupt. We could spend billions on a new stadium but it just seems like a colossal waste of money, for a stadium only used 8 Sundays a season. Yes it could be mixed use & it would have to be. But for a city like Buffalo I just don't think it makes much sense at this point.

Awesome man, thanks for sharing this! Watching the way McDermott coaches this team is like night & day from Rex. I'm so glad the Ryans are gone. it was such a stupid hire from the get go, but TP fixed it & man can you see the difference a competent coach makes. Looking forward to the series

Yeah, after further review some teams have it even worse lol. Its nice seeing the Cheatriots & Jets having so many injuries... Keep them coming! haha

Thanks for the link Knock on wood (as i knock on my head) but so far so good with our team avoiding the injury bug. I am worried about Zay Jones missing all this time. After his shaky performance last year & that meltdown in the hotel & the changes to our offense & new QB, dude really needs all the time he can get to get ready for this season. But if we can get thru the offseason/preseason without any series injuries, we'll be sitting pretty. Looking at that injury list... what the hell is going on in Green Bay? 17 players on the injury list? Thats insane I can only imagine how this board would be if that happened to us lol

It seems to be a frequent theme among local sports reporting. Whether it be WGR55, CBS or even the Buffalo Snooze, i see spelling errors all the time. I don't quite understand why in 2018, where when you misspell a word it will turn red in real time or when there are spell checkers, how there can ever be misspelled words in an article. It boggles the mind.

I came here wanting/expecting the Patriots but the Browns work too. The Jets would qualify as well. 1st reason why the Jets suck is that they're not even in New York. If you can't even get your teams name right, then yeah, you suck!

Idk, I'm PUMPED too! Only because this offseason feels longer than normal & I can't wait to see what our team looks like this season... same with the Sabres. Maybe I'm a fool to look forward to more disappointment haha But both of our franchises have gone thru a lot of changes. Bring on the Bungles & bring on the Preseason already!

Thanks for the updates & videos everyone! For those of us that can't be there, you're like a life line of Bills information Thanks again!

Thats funny, i thought he'd be perfect for Faux News

Hey you never know. There might be some super fast injury prone receiver out there that Oakland really likes in the 1st round.

This video is even better the 2nd time around! But seriously that signing of Micah Hyde continues to be one of the best acquisitions we've made so far... Hopefully he only gets better this season!

im watching the press conference on Periscope. Its amazing how in 2018 they cant run a stream with good audio. Volume is low, questions are inaudible & the sound only comes in on one track. Its like its mono & not stereo. Guess i'll just wait to the local news covers it ?

those were the days man! Such a treat to watch those teams... as long as it wasn't the Superbowl. One of my favorite games was the 51-3 shellacking of the Raiders

there's only ONE thing to think, and that is WE'RE GOING TO THE SUPAHBOW BABY!!!

its not even John Allen, its John's Allen

Beat me to it haha

Seeing your post made me think of this topic we had here a couple months ago: But being that its a long off season & that we've had more than our fair share of players who haven't worked out, theres no shortage of jerseys i imagine that'd fit this list. I don't have the money to buy jerseys like i'd like to, especially investing into a player that may end up gone, like my Fitzpatrick or McGahee jerseys. So now a days I'll put my own name on the back of it, since you can't ever go wrong with that. PS: I'm glad I never bought a Poz or Dareus jersey. Come to think of it, there's not many BIlls players i'd want as a jersey. But all that's starting to change. Maybe that in itself is a sign that times here are changing... and for the better!

I don't know about this year but I know last year I had no problem whatsoever watching the games live online. I won't promote any website here on this forum, but if you're somewhat savvy with the google searching you can find & watch any sporting event live from around the world. Whether it be minor league Badminton from Kazakhstan or professional hockey from the Swedish league... you can seriously find any sporting event to watch online as long as theres a camera & a feed being relayed. All that being said, it would be nice to know. Didn't WKBW show the other games last year? Yep, I just googled it, here's the info for this year, hope that helps: Week 1 -- Panthers at Bills (Aug. 9-12) Week 2 -- Bills at Browns (Aug. 16-19) Week 3 -- Bengals (and Andy Dalton) at Bills (Aug. 26, 4:00 p.m.) Week 4 -- Bills at Bears (Aug. 30) All four preseason games will be available to watch on 7ABC

I didn't leave it out because that in itself is what the whole issue is about. Thats why there have been protests. African Americans have a greater chance of a police encounter, have a greater chance to have force used against them, have a greater chance to be incarcerated, have a greater chance to get shot. There is a real issue of racial inequality when it comes to the criminal justice system. It's undeniable. What needs to happen now are serious discussions as to why this is the case & how do we fix it. Thats one good thing thats come up from the protests. People say all the time that "can't these players protest another way?' Well some have, but you wouldn't hear about them. When you think about it, this issue would've never gotten the attention it has if it wasn't for what the players did. Its unfortunate that their narrative got hijacked by the media & administration & turned into something else than it was, but that's what happens to any movement against the status quo.
