If someone here understands the dead cap implications if it is possible to trade Glenn before 2019. http://www.spotrac.com/nfl/buffalo-bills/cordy-glenn-9851/ POTENTIAL OUT: 2019, 3 YR, $41,250,000; $6,400,000 DEAD CAP To me it doesn't seem possible

Agree

McCain will not tow the party line , that is like me

As a Independent I admire John McCain

As a veteran I don't have a problem with Trump's phone call. He meant well , that matters . Kelly told him don't make calls , I agree. Let the military comfort the families. Unfortunately they have a lot of experience in this sad task, and at the graveside ceremony.

Donald J. Trump ✔@realDonaldTrump I was the first & only potential GOP candidate to state there will be no cuts to Social Security, Medicare & Medicaid. Huckabee copied me. 11:38 AM - May 7, 2015

BIG STEP TOWARD TAX REFORM: Senate Republicans narrowly passed a $4 trillion budget plan, taking their first big step toward a tax reform package promised by President Donald Trump ... Approval of the nonbinding plan allows the Senate to use a special process known as "budget reconciliation" that would forestall a Democratic filibuster. The Senate plan, approved on a 51-49 vote, calls for $473 billion in cuts from Medicare over 10 years and more than $1 trillion from Medicaid. Take money from the healthcare of the poorest and elderly to give tax breaks ? https://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/the-senate-budget-sets-up-a-tax-giveaway-to-the-rich_us_59e649cce4b0432b8c11ea82 It calls for cuts in domestic spending of $5.1 trillion total (over 10 years ) They can use the same reconciliation process that they used in their failed effort to enact Trumpcare. That process, which they plan to use to pass so-called “tax reform” with only 51 votes, allows them to increase the deficit by $1.5 trillion. If they include cuts to Medicare and Medicaid, the tax giveaway can be trillions of dollars larger.

The press conference with Gen Kelly today was very moving. He could care less if a President who did not know his son called him . He cared about the soldiers who served with his son called him and wrote him. Great Chief of Staff

I always thought W was a good person who had bad advisors especially Cheney , I liked his dad.

EPA steps in as Puerto Ricans grow desperate for clean drinking water OCT 18, 2017, 11:59 AM Federal agency hires security personnel to prevent access to contaminated site.

Mr Big Stuff is back at practice, I hope it is long term.

Don't forget a liar

The Bills did not have to trade up for Mahomes or Watson , I hope McD knows what he is doing on QBs. If either one becomes a franchise QB , oh well

Trump: Dem congresswoman 'totally fabricated' his remarks to widow of fallen soldier President Donald Trump denied Wednesday the account of a Democratic congresswoman that he told the widow of a US serviceman killed in an ambush in Niger that "he knew what he signed up for, but I guess it still hurt." Wilson described herself as "livid" when she heard the call on speakerphone, but when she tried to get the phone to talk to Trump herself, a master sergeant who was present prevented her from doing so. Per military protocol, the calls from the commander in chief are solely presidential condolence conversations. Wilson said she was ready to "curse him out" had she had the chance to get on the line. "Democrat Congresswoman totally fabricated what I said to the wife of a soldier who died in action (and I have proof). Sad!" he tweeted. He did not immediately provide proof to back the claim. CNN has reached out to the White House. "I have proof, too: this man is a sick man," Wilson said Wednesday morning on CNN's "New Day," responding to Trump's tweet. She added that Johnson's widow "broke down" after her call with Trump, saying the President "didn't even know his name." http://www.cnn.com/2017/10/17/politics/frederica-wilson-widow-fallen-soldier/index.html

I'll be happy if we see some progress in the running game , defense looks good. If Glenn and Henderson play hope they do well in this scheme.

They must be trying to find out who can do complex outside zone blocking. So far this scheme has killed the running game.

Always want NE* to lose. It sure looked like the Jets and maybe Bills were going to tank for a QB before the season.

Stevie Johnson‏Verified account @StevieJohnson13 Sep 17 More Keep your head up @zayjones11. You're going to catch a lot of balls, for a lot of yards and TDs...oh and make a ton of money while doing it. Hope SJ13 is right,somehow Fitz could find him with his free style routes

Out of the three categories of run concepts, outside zone was without a doubt the one that gave offensive lines the most problems. As a matter of fact, teams averaged just 3.84 yards on these plays leaguewide, which is the lowest out of the three examined categories. Furthermore, running backs averaged just 1.16 yards before contact on these runs, which is significantly lower than that of inside zone runs and gap scheme runs. https://www.canalstreetchronicles.com/2017/6/29/15893258/new-orleans-saints-offensive-line-terron-armstead-max-unger-andrus-peat-ryan-ramczyk-zach-strief interesting article on Saints OL.
