My pregame analysis stands. Great athlete, he's going to be a very good TE in the next 2-3 years

Cut Kyle Allen. Sign someone good and have Barkley as the backup until the new guy learns the offense

Or phase 1 of the Bruce Jenner makeover?

Finally, what we have all been waiting for! Allen leading the Bills in a must win game. Go get em Kyle 💪

Couldn't make it in the NFL, going to try to make it in the WNBA apparently.

I think it's more about him being broke now and wanting a pity party. He's probably trying to get his name back out there so he can do TV now that his comebacks have failed as a player

Boo hoo. Poor Johnny Football. He had everything going for him and all he had to do was not be a total doosh and he would have made it in life and in the NFL. This story, much like our society today, lacks accountability for your actions. If you want to party and not work then good for you, but there are consequences! The guy would show up to games hungover and never watched film. He got back what he put into it. Nothing beats hard work and determination.

Any news from camp about Dodson being amazing and taking the job by the reigns? Nope, it was between him and a "hybrid" special teams player and he's only winning by default because the little guy hurt his hammy

Well then there's your answer. They, like some on here, probably think a backup is "good enough." I guess we'll see!

The counterpoint to my argument seems to be "we had a top 5 defense with Edmunds, but let's spend the money elsewhere and worst case still have a top 10 defense with a backup. It's not that much of a difference." I think it will be a very noticeable difference. We saw it last year when Edmunds was out.

He will be a TE in 2 years. We have had a couple of those guys on our team in the past

This "competition" was never much of a competition to begin with. They had Dodson, who is a career backup but knows the defense, and they had Bernard, who is the size of a safety. They never even made an attempt to replace Edmunds and I think it will come back to bite them in the you know what. The MLB is a very important piece in this defense. It's the Luke Kuechly position. You can't just stick a backup in there and call it a day

This is what I read. They did not take it as sarcastic: https://www.si.com/nfl/2023/08/09/joe-burrow-calf-injury-weeks-away-return-bengals-zac-taylor I believe the Bengals insiders more than SI but I guess it's just confusing that we can get 2 different stories from different sources based on a coach's comment

The latest as per Taylor is "it will be another few weeks added to the original he will be out several weeks." Sounds like he's missing the start of the season. Although Bengals started the last few seasons with a losing streak and they have come back from that before but we'll see.

I think definitely more injuries so yes probably shorter careers. That's a looong season. Maybe 2 bye weeks would help but then you are pushing the regular season out until mid Jan

It's probably coming soon. I read maybe as early as 2025. I think NFLPA will push back but eventually $ will win, more revenue, higher salary cap, etc.

It's all about revenue. You buy seasons you buy preseason and it's all about total $. Only way they would get rid of 1 more preseason game would be to add 1 regular season game, something the NFLPA has pushed back on

If it's 3 years he's probably out in like 1 year I bet. For killing someone? Holy cow that's wild. He could be back playing games and making millions by 2025. This justice system is nuts

Tua's new uniform is already on it's way from Amazon. They might want to upgrade the shipping to Prime based on this report.

Fields is on a terrible team. Who did he have to throw to? I only watched a couple of their games but his throws were on the money and his receivers were just garbage so he figured out he was better served just running the ball and he turned in one of the best QB rushing seasons in NFL history. If he's a "bust" then I hope the Bills scoop him up in free agency

They would be suicidal if the Bills still stomp them even with Rodgers. Jets fans are 100% convinced they are winning the Superbowl this year. It would be glorious to burst their bubble on MNF in front of the whole world

It will be fine. If Tua gets knocked unconscious they will just say his back hurts and he will be back out there the next series anyways.

Both terrible options. Bring back Money Mitch!

To get $50-100 a pop for the abuse and stress, it's not worth it. Coaches, parents, players all treat you like crap. Miss a call and people literally want your head on a stake. I'm sure people could think of a million better things to do with their time
