You can disagree, but the take isn't horrible and had 22 of 32 votes. When I look back at NFL Films highlights and history, the story isn't replete with ball carriers being pushed and pulled to victory.

Well, I guess I gotta watch this show now...

I think you know exactly what I mean.

The pull is already banned, it’s just not being consistently enforced. The whole thing is stupid.

A player should not receive assistance (pulling or pushing) from a teammate to gain yardage -- PERIOD. It's a stupid play and should have never been allowed.

Haha, yes, you are correct. I'll edit.

Friggin' Travis Jason Kelce was there lobbying for the play. Ridiculous. It's not a football play and hopefully it's out next year.

Never gonna happen ($$). Half of the league gets into the postseason tournament, just like the two other major sports (NBA/NHL). Baseball is its own animal and they play too many games as it is. Adding one team in each conference won't water down anything, and it only adds one more game. Nothing else changes; you still have 2v7, 3v6, and 4v5. Makes too much sense not to do this.

/yawn/

I think at the end of the day the Fish still have the 2nd best roster and will finish 2nd in the division...five or six games behind the Bills.

Once they get to an 18-game schedule I hope they eliminate byes altogether and put 16 teams into the playoffs so it's a legitimate tournament. The decision to go to only one bye per conference was a dumb one.

It’s a non-contact sport, and essentially the same thing as players working out in the offseason. There’s really no reason not to approve them playing if they want to. Yes, injuries can happen, but they can also happen just by working out. I’m sure the legal details were discussed and the owners will not invalidate contracts if a player is injured during the Olympics.

I think a lot of NFL players would get a huge kick out of this and will be interested.

Wasn't it issues coming back from the wrist injury? I think he, along with Coleman, are two of the reasons the strength and conditioning coach got canned.

Let’s just call this what it is…an attempt to “fix” something that happens once in a while but not all that frequently — a WC team with a better record playing at a division champ. I don’t really have a problem with it, but I also don’t think it’s some huge issue that had to be addressed. I would MUCH rather them go back to two byes or no byes (and add one more playoff team).

I just came here to say 😂 🤣

Why is this thread titled “McBean?” You know McDermott doesn’t do the scouting or drafting, right?

After an 0-3 preseason many on this board will be wringing their hands and forecasting a 9-8 regular season.

This. There are a couple of lots but it’s nothing to write home about. Better off pre-gaming at a bar.

No. That’s Reggie Gilliam.

I found something to b-i-t-c-h about for all of you looking...the Bills have one of the worst "net rest day" differentials in the league, meaning their opponents (overall) have a proportionately greater number of rest days before playing the Bills. If you think that matters.

Ravens…but only because the Iggles game isn’t the LAST game at Rich. If it was, those would be ungodly expensive. (although, of course, we’re all hoping for two more at Rich in the playoffs)

Great recap. This year will be my wife’s and my 4th or 5th straight trip. We prefer South Beach (I don’t need to be surrounded by Bills fans) but you are dead on about the mentality of Fish fans in town. It’s a “don’t fight; just lay back and take it” kind of resignation. For about two minutes they thought Tua was going to lead them to greatness but now even they know it’s a lost cause. Warms my heart, truthfully.
