I thought he was supposed to be cut…

I thought denver had a better defense and Payton would help the offense

Other factors in his play are things like…
1. if you feel you have to do a big play to try and prove yourself you can try to hard snd not do well.
if you know going in you won’t get benched because of a fumble or unsuccessful run snd you can play the full game you relax snd likely perform better becsuse you don’t have to constantly watch over your back.
yiu see this in other sports like hockey rookies/ young players being called up or make opening roster or September call ups in baseball where the coaches say relax we will let you play the next 7-20 games and we understand mistakes might be made.

The Bills drafted running back Zack Moss in the 3rd round (86th overall) of the 2020 NFL Draft. At the time I liked the pick and thought of him as a good physical back. He flashed at times as a Bill but was mostly a disappointment partly because of his inability to stay healthy and partly because of his general ineffectiveness. He never seemed to resemble the player he was at Utah.
Finally last Halloween we traded him to the Colts for fellow running back Nyheim Hines. Besides swapping him for Hines, we acquired two physical runners (Damien Harris and Latavius Murray) to provide that ruggedness that Moss was supposed to bring us.
By the time he was shown the door he was pretty much a whipping boy for members of this forum. It hasn't been spoken of much around here but Moss has quietly resurrected his career.
Here are his stat lines from his last 5 regular season games with Indy:
Zack Moss last 5 Regular Season Games with the Colts Date ATT YDS YPC 12/17/22 24 81 3.38 12/26/22 12 65 5.42 1/1/23 15 74 4.93 1/8/23 18 114 6.33 9/17/23 18 88 4.89 AVERAGE 15.4 84.4 5.48 I'm curious if anyone here has any insights as to what has changed to make him a seemingly effective NFL running back. Health? Scheme? Also would you say his improvement has vindicated the Bills decision to draft him in the first place?
Other factors in this are running styles. I have not analyzed him to say it’s so….
a good example of this was Herschel Walker in a big trade from cow oup YS to Vikings. He was an utter bust in minnesota, what Dallas got help them go on the 1990s Super Bowl run. Reason was Walker was one running style thst minnesota running system in play design was the opposite style needed. Minnesota style relied on backs thst coukd shift and get to gaps while Walker relied solely on sn open gap to run without having to shift or cut .
this trade and a few others proved the point of system fit is necessary in nfl talent where just because player is great on one team makes him great for all.

The Visa commercial about the Bills fan that spans three generations. Does his wife die? The one he proposed to during the Norwood kick? She’s not there at the end of the commercial when he’s buying a jersey for his granddaughter and I was getting Up vibes. Is she dead?
Thanks.
now that she married him she’s no longer has to be a football fan….-

While some players say they regret their time in the NFL because of the consequences, Ex-Bill Coy Wire says even given his injuries, "I would also never trade the time that I spent on the gridiron."
This is an interesting article that goes into the history of safety in the NFL (I didn't know 19 people died from football injuries in 1905) and spends some time discussing how Hamlin's injury - and Sean McDermott's response - changed the NFL's attitude toward serious injuries.
this was the theme of the 8 pm Anderson cooper show Sunday night on nfl safety.

Cb ints in end zone tries to run it out versus taking touch back. Ends up tackled at 3 chargers go 3 n out and out from own end zone. Next play Hill beats cb for a TD. Later on in game chargers lead have fins rattled 3 rd and long and agai hill beats them deep. Later in series again hill beats them for a TD. the chargers defense let Tua have ample time and left receivers free was Leslie Frazer consulting their D
They self destruct …thry have patented it.

I’ve always liked Peter King.
His prediction is valid as anyone else on this board…
don’t see jets being that good.
jets non common are Atlanta , houston snd Cleveland.
bills are jags, bengals, and tb.
I am not sold on the jets just because of Aaron. He’s not that big of a difference maker.
I think jags can win division but not that good of a record. Last year they were what a 500 team. Thst might get to a 10-7 record.
kc in their division will get knocked down a few pegs and possibly be just a WC.
div winner—- bills, Bengals, Jags, chiefs/ chargers.
WC chiefs/ chargers then the last 2 spots will be a battle with many teams ..many of these teams will be bunched up around 6-6 and thrn some emerge.
for NFC— cowboys, lions, wide open, 49ers
WC Seahawks, the eagles nd bears in a battle with many others around 9-8.

He did mess up with Broeker though
nes a 7 th round on a top team in thr league with a lot of depth already. Usually 6 th, 7 th rounders aren’t going to make the team to start. Thry are usually designated for PSid like the league to adopt a protected prospect development of those drafted 5th or later or undrafted wherr thry can go on PS for 1 yr without having to clear waivers. But it means they are 100% PS for the season.thry can’t get plucked by other teams. Limit of 4. These are for 2 years or less prospects with exceptions for full season injury loses.

Got a feeling this was going to be Boogies break out season. Did Breane not give him the time (one more year) to develop like he did to Teller who is now an all pro G or did beane make the right move why?
really…next Wyatt teller?big difference. Teller was trade out of his rookie camp not 2 yrs in.
bills traded him because of him possibly getting cut due to depth and injuries.

were you able to play through it at all? I know it is probably a bad idea, but I have been bracing the knee and continuing to do some sports, like bball and golf. For bball, I am taking it easier— sort of trying not to cut hard, etc. Haven’t had more issues yet, but obviously the knee isn’t right. (Going to see a doc next week).That doesn’t sound like a meniscus tear. I had one and had surgery. My left knee was unstable and hurt. Had to use a cane.

Thanks so much. very helpful.
It’s weird. I am not feeling a lot of pain, but some instability and “crunchiness and clicking, and just not cutting like I need to. I played hoops this morning and did this pivot (trying not to put weight on that bad leg), and just fell on my butt. Very embarrassing. But I figure if I can get some PT and just kind of be careful playing through it, I won’t have to miss time playing sports, which is my major form of exercise.It sounds like a torn meniscus. Had a tear on my left d had surgery in oct 2019. My knee was unstable and would give out. Had to use a cane. Thr dr finished the year and took about 30% out.

Agree 100% and at some point sooner than later years of horrendous drafting going to catch up with this team which is why myself and many other pundits expecting a big regression this year.
Also no this isn't another username or burner account of mine.
false……
most of a teams roster turns over significantly over a 4 year period even with stable coaching/GM..
your core players you drafted, you keep long term ( QB, WR, OT, OL, DL, LB, CB)
with other places you use free agency and drafting to fill in holes.
from drafting/ prospect development from PS you are looking about 35-40 players while the rest of the roster of 20 or so players you drafted or signed to multi- year contracts as free sgents.

49ers turned a 2021 1st, 2022 1st, 2023 1st, and a 2022 3rd into: 2023 4th rd pick, 4 QB starts (2-2 record), and 14mm dead cap spread over the next 2 seasons.
It's probably the worst trade in NFL history. At a bare minimum it's a top 5 worst trade of all time. The 49ers have locked in their trade value and could look even worse if Lance somehow redeems his career and/or if Purdy sucks.
No…
