  1. Josh needs a lot less golf and a lot more work on his mechanics and chemistry with his receivers this coming offseason. He talked about getting back to his offseason mechanics training in the postgame today........but he's clearly not putting in the work he was prior to the 2021 season. After 13 seconds I think he thought he had neared the pinnacle of his profession but he's regressed back closer to Cam Newton 2.0 than the passer he was then. Time for him to get serious about winning before his own talent regresses back to the pack.
  2. I believe it's a back injury for Diggs. I think it was reported that he had a back injury earlier in the season. But also, Brady has killed the pass game in general. Everybody but Cook looks worse in the pass game with Brady than they had with Dorsey. The sample size is just small enough and people are still feeling sated about the Dorsey firing that they haven't gotten around to their pitchforks just yet.
  3. No. But if you are going to try to be a punctuation Nazi(in addition to your other glorifications of The Third Reich).........you could begin by knowing that it's not called "repeating dots" ..........it's called an ellipsis. Also, be sure to use periods at the end of all of your sentences so that you don't look hypocritical or hilariously ignorant.........or both. You're welcome.
  4. It's not implausible that they could add both Ifedi and Collins to the PS. During the season they might prefer to keep some young guys on the PS but going into the playoffs you probably want more veterans who you can trust to step in and start the next week in the event of catastrophic injuries. They aren't risking much by releasing young players from the PS this late in the season. They've basically been unclaimed free agents all season, have no runway left to show themselves off in practice with other teams and are just going to be signing futures deals in the January.
  5. It's probably just the old uniform number flashback. They don't play or look anything alike when playing. Shakir is a herky-jerky RB-type athlete who plays like a small target. Sanders was a very fast and smooth operator but also had a large catch radius because he was acrobatic in his prime. Shakir is #10 and people identify Sanders as #10 from his best days as a star with Denver.......it was thought he'd be #10 with the Bills but he chose #1.
  6. I just want to run it by @Beck Water and @DabillsDaBillsDaBills and make sure it's OK to sign him........since he was questioned regarding the shooting death of a then pregnant GF(he was uncertain if he was the father at that time and had to take a paternity test). Which is all why he wasn't an early draft pick, as he was expected to be. I mean the police said he wasn't a suspect so it's probably cool, right? But then again they have apparently never identified a suspect of any kind in the case either. So there is that whole "never been proven innocent either" thing.
  7. "Pretty good sense" and "know for sure" are not the same thing, right? And right now Miller hasn't caught a case.........so perhaps there is actually reasonable doubt about her initial and later recanted story. But I'd hate to interrupt a good figurative lynching with common sense.
  8. Why is that the only scenario? And why is it not "plausible" that she was being irrational, punitive or untruthful? And why does Miller leaving the home have to be "fleeing" because she called the cops and not "walking away" from an argument and getting the cops called on him because of it? Be honest.........is your perspective because your ex-stripper, multiple-rich-athlete-dating baby momma' was always delightful whenever she was pregnant and angered about not getting something she wanted from you? And because you would never walk away from an argument with a significant other to diffuse the situation? And why was this poor girl so nice to you if you weren't psychologically manipulating and/or grooming her from a young age? I don't know about you, DaBillsDABillsDaBills..... Maybe you are a good guy.......but it just doesn't seem plausible as I am piecing this all together.
  9. I wanted the Bills to focus on offense in the 2022 offseason but you people constantly throwing yourselves over the Miller contract really take it over the top. He was tremendous, All-Pro level performer in 2022 and then a late season ACL injury(which are not necessarily age related) pretty much took him out for this season. Maybe if he were younger he bounces back quicker but every surgery and recovery is different. Bradley Chubb partially tore an ACL late in 2020 season at age 24 and had a terrible, sackless 2021 despite being 25. Miller's total cap hit would be 3 years at $17.5M per year when they can cut him after next season. Painful but he WAS panning out prior to a random serious injury. It's not and never was a top of the market DE contract.
  10. No I think the @CincinnatiKid is right he is subject to waivers despite his experience because it is at the very end of the season. That said.......I don't think he gets claimed by a team he doesn't want to go to. Different situation than Kareem Jackson.......who was released because Payton didn't want him around any longer.
  11. Van Demark played well at LT and poorly at RT in the preseason..........he might be the RT2 in a given game where the OT's are both enter the game healthy......but in the event of injury to Spencer Brown I'd suspect that Ifedi would be on the active roster and play RT ahead of Van Demark the following week.
  12. He can't be claimed he becomes a free agent automagically. And I think his 17 game checks are all fully guaranteed having been on the 53 in week 1..........so probably no financial reason to jump teams. So could just be a weekend on the PS and then if there is an injury he gets back on the 53.
  13. Sex? I'm told there is physical evidence that Miller has had very intimate relations with the victim in the past in the form of at least 3 pregnancies........and she used to have a pretty physical job swinging on poles as a sex worker prior to getting with Miller. So maybe their idea of normal contact is not the same as yours. Bottom line........nobody but those 2 really knows what the hell happened. You can pretend to know all you want............you still don't.
  14. Get some warmer packs for feet/toes/hands.
  15. We have our share of closeted or semi-closeted Boston pro sports fans on here. They generally try to keep it under wraps because they know it's disgusting........unless you are from New England there is no excuse to ever be both a Bills fan and a fan of a pro sports team from Boston. Bullfrog from WGR identifies as a Red Sox fan..........but he is one of those "finish line" fans that lose all interest after the team wins a title. Another reason to root for a Bills SB win.
  16. You clearly don't understand the subject of this thread. KC fans thought they were getting upgrades at OT.......because they expected those players talents to be optimized........because it was THEIR team. Bills fans had the same kind thoughts about the veteran replacements in the WR room........they were certain to be upgrades..........even though the more LIKELY outcome was that they would produce closer to or less than their career norms........which for Sherfield and Sharty were VERY poor numbers. You for some reason want to cherry pick players who have been constants and add them randomly to some equation that's irrelevant to the topic. And isn't the least bit enlightening because you aren't mentioning that the other constants/incumbents are all having down years. The Bills passing game has gotten worse.......Diggs and Davis are having down years........but that isn't the topic. Understand?
  17. So I posted the stats......and you.........thought I didn't know the stats? You're a little lost, Bermuda. The point is that Bills fans thought it was a big upgrade adding Sharty and Sherfield.......like the Chiefs did with the OT's.......the subject of this thread. It's just the nature of uninformed and/or unrealistic fans to expect the near best possible results..........even though the rule of thumb with free agency has always been that it usually(at least in year 1) hurts the team that loses the player more than it helps the team that acquires the player. But fwiw........Crowder has more receiving yardage than any of the other 3 this season as he circles the drain in what is probably his last year in the league. As I said later in this thread.........the shuffling of the washed up Crowder and the 3 other nobodies has not benefitted ANYONE. As for the name-fluid receiver recently known as Deonte Harris..........what's wrong with a tweak so that WR's 3-6 all have last names that start with "Sh"? The HuSH brothers were going to quiet the doubters like me. Teamwork makes the dreamwork.
  18. Yeah I was going to expand into the highlighted with Hap but wanted to keep the response simpler since she was just missing the point. Which was the Bills choice of which vets to replace the outgoing Lil' Dummy and Crowder with. It was a swap in the similar sense to what KC did at the tackle spots and there were fans on here who bought into the Kool-aid/untapped potential angle like it was a sure thing. For $7M in guarantees they got Sharty and Sherfield and replaced 500 yards in production with a combined 200 yards so far. While Dummy and Crowder had a $1.2 and a vet min cap hit($880K) and have outproduced them by about 30 yards or so while also vanishing from any relevance whatsoever. It was $6M waste of cap space to shuffle deck chairs that has also seemed to injure everyone involved. But yeah, I think your point is the main reason Sherfield hasn't been productive. Not going to get targets if not trusted to be where you are supposed to be. Was it the KC game or the Philly game where he was supposed to run a post and basically ran the virtually extinct bang 9 route......straight into coverage.......and Allen threw the ball where he should have been for an almost sure TD? That was maybe the most egregiously poor route of the season by a Bills WR. No question whatsoever that was all on him. Gabe has had some doozies but that one was a true ***** by Sherfield.
  19. I think it was pretty clear by the end of last season that Cedrick Wilson wasn't going to be that guy. I've seen all of their games and there hasn't been any concerted effort to get him regularly involved. He has 381 total yards in his 2 seasons in Miami. Sherfield had 417 last season alone and seemed to be trending up. (edit: and the money isn't THAT big with Cedrick it was basically a 2 year $12.5M guaranteed deal) Sherfield leaving Miami for a $1.8M contract in Buffalo has turned into a seemingly terrible decision for him. He had some helium in Miami in an offense that doesn't feature a TE, didn't have much WR depth, had good passing weather, no state taxes.... For it to turn out like it has for Sherfield has to be extremely frustrating. He and Poona Ford both have really seen their careers come to a screeching halt on $1.7M deals in Buffalo this season. Hasn't been much better for Rapp either. 3 guys whose status has diminished in Buffalo after taking cheap deals.
  20. No he had clearly beaten Cedrick Wilson out in 2022.........it wasn't even close in terms of target share or production. Sherfield and Gesicki were neck and neck in targets at 51 and 52 but Sherfield was more productive per play and everyone knew Gesicki was leaving for somewhere they might use him more. The Dolphins were shocked when Sherfield left his great gig to go to Buffalo.......and then when he said the reason was that he wanted to play with a great QB. And fwiw..........the Dolphins have not been able to replace Sherfield either. It's Hill and Waddle and then a bunch of guys like Wilson with 200 or so yards.
  21. If they get swept by the bottom-feeding Patriots they don't deserve to be in the playoffs. Shouldn't be a tough task for leadership to motivate the team this week.
  22. @PromoTheRobot is just setting you up in the unlikely event that Joe Flacco (10 TD 7 INT 59% completion) somehow beats the Bills in the playoffs............so he can shame you for not being an appreciative fan. If JA17 loses a playoff game to a 38-39 year old Joe Flacco........9 years after he was last a good starting QB in the NFL.........then that will be inexcusable.
  23. You are going off the rails a bit here, Hap. Kincaid has basically the same yards per game as Knox had last year. That's who he's replaced in the pecking order in 2023. Shakir replaces the Crowder/McKenzie/Beasley in the slot. But it's not as simple as that. Diggs production is way down. Davis is also down. If you want to play that game you will go in circles because things have changed. In part because Sherfield and Harty have not played to expectations. So what we do know is that the Bills switched out veterans Crowder, McKenzie(and Kumerow if you wish) and brought in veterans Sherfield and Harty.........to some degree of fanfare......not just as special teams players and blockers. And in Harty's case for significantly more money invested. I mean, Sherfield didn't quit his job as the clear-cut WR3 in Miami to get paid near minimum wage to replace Kumerow as a 5th or 6th WR. He thought it was a better opportunity to advance his career with the Bills because they had a weaker 1-2 combo than the target hogging stud 1-2 Hill/Waddle grouping in Miami. He might have even thought he could compete with Davis.........where he could not with either Hill and Waddle. What Sherfield found out is that having 2 studs in Miami actually provided him MORE opportunity. They draw a lot of attention. The Bills lack of a consistent WR2 type weapon has allowed defense's to distribute their attention more proportionately after Diggs. Where Kincaid fits into the equation at the time of the Sherfield and Sharty signings? He did not exist in them. Because they had no idea they were going to have Kincaid. In fact, most of the chatter/info was that WR was their hope to acquire in round 1........and they just pivoted with the WR's gone and Kincaid on the board.
  24. He doesn't bring any Juice. If you need 4 yards he can get you 4........if you need 5......he can get you 4. That's who he is......whether it's in the regular season or the playoffs..........4 yards per carry career........which is below league average per carry fwiw.
