  1. Next man up with Daniel Jones and Tyrod injured. I’m rooting for him as he seems like a good guy that was well liked in the Bills QB rooom…and dates a Canisius College graduate!
  2. Given that none of the 32 teams in the league signed him in the offseason, I sincerely doubt his political views had any role in his being released. He's clearly on the downside of his career and everyone knows it. Tampa signed him after losing a bunch a WRs to injury. He did catch 1 pass yesterday on a 3rd and very long. He was wide open (no underneath coverage) and ran the ball 2 more yards before tripping over his own feet for a gain of 5 yards. Hard pass on Beasley even if he was still on the street.
  3. I stand corrected! Had to watch the replay again…with the sound off. Charles Davis su@#s as a commentator, btw. 🤮
  4. Seriously, we laugh but that's basically sexual assault...caught on camera...repeatedly for Wilkins.
  5. Barkley is so fast that he'll get tackled behind the line by unblocked defenders that much sooner than our current backs. Over the course of the game, that would have saved those few seconds we needed at the end of the Dolphins game to spike the ball! 🤦‍♂️ Say it: "FIX THE LINE and WE'LL BE FINE"
  6. In this order Poyer - 2 picks, 3 passes defensed and 6 tackles Milano - 13 tackles and 2 for losses Edmunds - 9 tackles and 2 for losses Frazier - Another masterful strategy against an opponent that is really tough to game plan against. I think he officially owns Greg Roman. Allen - After the 1st quarter, where he looked overhyped Singletary...uh...NO. Outside of the 18yd run where he ran basically untouched, he had 10 carries for 30 yards and a costly fumble (3 points for the Ravens). Of course, the o-line run blocking is atrocious. He did contribute well in the screen game. Knox...NO. Had one good catch but he stopped on the route in the 1st quarter that resulted in the pick by Humphries. He keeps going and it's in his chest. He basically gave 7 points to Baltimore. McClappy gets an honorable mention for his end-game clock management.
  7. Posted this on the main board but probably should have here. Pretty funny.
  8. For reaching the Quarterfinals of the US Open this week before losing a close match to World #1 Ida Swiatek. She is now the top ranked American in Women’s tennis at #8. She also has a very Buffalo way to hydrate during the post-match press conference!
  9. Agreed. Howard doesn’t seem to have risen in the depth chart. Cutting him would hurt a lot on the cap. The Giants TE group sucks. Call Dabs and make a deal!
  10. Good stuff. Like Pegula, Collins dealt with health issues that limited her career. She suffered from crippling endometriosis for years before having corrective surgery last year. She would have frequent bouts of terrible spinal pain that limited her performance and caused her to drop out of tournaments. Like Pegula, she has a limited upside but a lot of grit. She’ll probably be a fixture in the top 20 for the next several years if she stays healthy.
  11. She had a lot of injuries early in her career that kept her from progressing. She has changed coaches and trainers. Most players would have given up in her situation. Her physical abilities limit her upper end possibilities. Plus, her style of play doesn’t afford her a very large margin of error on shots (limited topspin). Add to that a mediocre serve. She’s lucky that the string of great players have all but left the tour (Williams sisters, Sharapova, Barty). Her wealth allowed her to keep playing without significant sponsorship. If she can stay healthy, she’ll be a consistent quarter finalist in majors but unlikely to ever win one. Of course, strange things happen. Last year 2 nobodies played in the U.S. Open finals because they never had to play any seeded players along the way. The seeds were all upset early.
  12. Interesting tweet shows the travel miles and time zone crossings of each team. The Bills are in the top 3rd for fewest miles. It’s crazy that Pittsburgh never leaves the Eastern time zone all season.
  13. What an intimidating environment for a college kid. He seems to knock it put of the park with his professionalism and thoroughness. He seems to be dedicated to improving.
  14. OK, high end physically (speed, size, etc.) with one of the highest grades at his position against the best teams in college football. Sounds like he’s dedicated to improving and looks to Tre as an example. Now add in: great scheme in Buffalo for his position great coaches on the team for his position teamed up with one of the best CBs in the league and the best safety duo in the league Has Von Miller as an example of how to be a pro gets to practice against one of the best QBs and best receiving corps every day in camp That looks like a recipe for success to me! I think I’ll be pretty surprised if this kid isn’t a great starter in Buffalo for years to come.
  15. Cool review! Outside the top 10 picks, I think mock drafts are pretty unreliable because each pick and/or trade throws a monkey wrench 🙈 🔧 into the analysis. This part of the article would be interesting to track against from a betting perspective: Most popular positions for Bills in 2022 mock drafts (first round) CB/DB – 64 times WR – 21 times IOL – 15 times I haven’t followed the “depth” of each of these positions in the draft. All that being equal, CB2 is obviously the biggest need. I’ll go SS because I think this is Poyer’s last year in Buffalo. My 2 cents 🪙🪙
  16. Wow, I guess they know their audience but the lack of knowledge shown here is a bit stunning. Why does everyone who is against public funding of sports focus all of their attention on how rich the owners are? They are rich for a reason and longtime NFL owners are largely responsible for the league's popularity and the revenue generation from TV, etc. The Pegula's paid $1B+ for the team that Ralph started with money from a shoebox. The players aren't 50 times better than they were 30 years ago but the league has been run so successfully over that period that players make 30x more now. Sorry, the players aren't responsible for the league's success, the owners are. Insert "Buffalo Philharmonic" instead of "Buffalo Bills" and these people would have the opposite opinion. Local Sports teams are a "public good", just like the arts, parks, etc. Some are privately owned and some are publicly owned and managed. The only fact you really have to know here is the there are enough citizens in the county and state that want an NFL team in Buffalo and are willing to have their tax dollars fund a portion of it. It has "value" to the citizens that they receive when they watch the games, read news articles, watch the draft and read inane opinions on TBD. None of that "value" the citizens/fans receive would be possible if they became the Austin Bats. Citizens of NY think spending 0.4% of one year's state budget is worth keeping the team.
  17. Strangely, I think a Chiefs’ fan could have written this exact same post if they didn’t pull off that 13 second drive.
  18. This encapsulates my takeaway from last night…feeling great about where the Bills are headed with JA:
  19. Nice to see another homie who made it big and still connects with back home and the Bills. I loved her in The Big Bang theory. Hilarious! And now I find out shea Bills’ fan 👍😁
  20. They should go with the D.C. Generals and call their new stadium “The Little Big Horn” where they’ll continue to get massacred every week!
