  1. Great, another thinly veiled thread to trash McDermott. Such an ignorant take, but unfortunately all too common among the “Super Bowl or failure” crowd. There’s really only one playoff game under McD in which the Bills came out flat (Cinci), and against KC they simply haven’t gotten the same breaks as their opponent.
  2. I said could, not would, and I understand what you’re saying, but I do think several would have a decent shot at unseating starters in this league.
  3. Bass had “pelvic soreness” not a groin injury, and I don’t think carrying a K on the PS is a very good use of that tool. There are plenty of kickers out there who can get ready in a week if somebody gets hurt.
  4. It’s not surprising to me…unless he was a lights-out returner I always had difficulty envisioning his role on this team. I guess he’s kinda fast, but what does he give the offense that is unique?
  5. It’s not far fetched to say that a number of those guys could be starting on other NFL rosters.
  6. What sorry reasons? They’ve gotten the breaks we haven’t. It’s football. I’m not crying about it.
  7. I really think the makeup of the 53 + this PS means good news about Tre’s availability for W1.
  8. Learning how to block and not dropping passes.
  9. Ravens fans are always delusional. Bottom line: they turned the ball over, we didn’t, end of story.
  10. It was *never* a good thing to show the dreams of young men being shattered with the public airing of their firing. It’s completely unnecessary. I’m thoroughly enjoying this program.
  11. WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE??? I AM!!!!
  12. That’s a damn fine practice squad, if I do say so my damn self.
  13. I haven’t reviewed preseason film nor have I heard any analysis of Cod’s reps on D this summer. I know that for the little bit of preseason I watched it wasn’t him looking like a piece of burnt toast out there. He’s only a second year player and it’s very possible the Bills like him as a developmental prospect as well.
  14. Yeah, looks like Codrington will stick.
  15. Well, I guess we disagree there. The very reason I thought he’d make the 53 is because he is a great STer who can also fill a backup role on D.
  16. Doesn’t he have to clear waivers first? This doesn’t sound right.
  17. Was just going to post the same. I take this as a very good sign that McD doesn’t feel like he has to rely on a below average veteran.
  18. C’est what?
  19. https://apple.news/APXOfnemBSAuaSmiuGezfzA This place would implode.
  20. Of all of those moves, which one do you think the Bills considered “major” or the missing piece to a Super Bowl roster? Sometimes it’s helpful to bring back a veteran who already knows the culture and standard, rather than a complete unknown. They’ve taken their shots with new guys as well. Based upon what they’ve done in their tenure, do you think Beane, McD, and their staffs are “clowns” or don’t know how to build a winner?
  21. All because they may bring Jordan Phillips back? Wow.
  22. …the roster the Bills announce on Tuesday at 4 p.m. will NOT be the 53-man roster they begin the season with on September 7. I’d guess that 2-3 spots will change between Tuesday and the opener. It’s one of the reasons predicting the bottom of the roster is something of a silly exercise, since teams wait to see all of the cuts and typically someone’s discards fill a gap on another roster. For the Bills, I think the spots most likely to shift involve the OL and DL, particularly with rumors of Jordan Phillips in the house. Further, there are potential PUP and IR moves that may occur after a player has “made” the team. Just food for thought…it’s definitely a game involving some strategy as to which guys to release that they think they can get back on the PS. This is where a fair amount of “wink, wink” deals are made.
  23. Oh, this thread is gold for the “I know more than Beane” crowd. It’s gold, Jerry! Gold!
  24. Incorrect. The Bills told HBO they would not allow filming of player releases…which I respect the hell out of.
