    History is the Bills keep 6 LBs every year.  All the non-starters are ST guys.

    If that happens again this year, then either Blackshear, Kumerow or Hodgins don't make the cut.

    The 6th LB (Spector or Gilles-Harris) gets cut when Smith returns for the 7th game unless they look great.

     

    My choice is Kumerow goes to the PS.  I agree with the rest.

    Kumerow will be gone in a heartbeat.  Packers, Saints, whoever.  A known NFL commodity.  He won't be on any practice squad.

  2. No OBJ, he has BA and the Bills don't need that type of guy.  Joe Haden ,well, if injuries hit.  But, the rookies are looking good imho.  I would go with them and whoever is healthy from the rest.  We want Tre back as soon as possible, but no sooner.

    I think Shanahan can't get it done without a little bit more at QB.  Twice they really needed him to come up clutch, and twice he came up very short.  It's sort of Goff with LA, you've gone as far as you can with this guy.  If the run game falters, they lose.  If they need him to come up clutch in the 4th quarter of a playoff game, they lose.  

    Not sure Lance is that guy however.  But, they need to find out.  It took Josh a couple of years...yes, he was always on the upbubble, it just took those years to make him more complete.  (of course, Josh worked his butt off also)

    He's 21-32 as a head coach. That record doesn't lie.

    Marv Levy got a second chance here after taking a fail at KC.  Marv went to Montreol and was HC there when the Bills picked him up.  And he wasn't young when that happened.  It may happen yet for Frazier!  But, its hard to give up the $3mil paycheck he gets as DC for the Bills.  Big pay cut to go the route Marv Levy did.

    You got lucky. You got a ride! 

     

    I met a buddy for drinks one day at The Battery where the Braves play. I had used Uber to get there and back at least a dozen times before Covid. It’s 3 miles and about an 8 minutes ride that used to cost $7-$9.  I was shocked when the ride there said $19, but I was going for drinks and it was the safe thing to do. For the ride home it quoted me $34 which REALLY pissed me off. To top things off, when I accepted the ridiculous fare, it said “no drivers available”. I kept checking repeatedly, only to get the same response. I’m glad it was only 3 miles, because I had to walk it. I checked it randomly for a few months and no drivers popped up far too often for my comfort. This was all about a year ago. 

     

    I’ve used Uber since, especially when out of town, and have not had a problem in recent months. I’ve not been stranded again, but that’s always in the back of my mind. 

    Yes, we got stranded in Broooklyn a while ago.  Had to call a cab. IN Vegas, the cabs are a better deal all the way.  Gave up on UBER there.

    I don't like all these optimistic forecasts. They give me a hinky feeling. I remind myself of the Pitt and Jax games from last year.

    I , too, prefer the Bills as an underdog  Of course, for most of the 6 decades i have been a fan they were really the 'dog!  So, its natural I am  uncomfortable with front runner status.

        He’s a million years old and semi popped his hip out of its socket. That is not a common or easy injury to recover from I would assume. 

    I thought it was broken....the Bo Jackson injury...but if you know a dislocation, well, new news to me.  Anyhow, he likely can't be counted on to stay healthy with that hanging over his head.

    Right off the bat they're spending a bunch of that rest capital.  They go from a Thursday night opener to a Monday night home opener.  Almost a third of their rest advantage gone by the second weekend.

    Its a good time for a long break as there will be some things that still need to be installed in the O and D late preseason, and really still learning the playbook in depth.  So, I am not concerned about using that time up there.

     

    On another topic, good schedule for the Bills.  Not so much for the fans in the stands with 5 cold month games, only three in warm months.  Once again, the league shows no comprehension that a home game in Oct is better than in Dec or January in Buffalo.  this is one reason I dropped my seasons.

    No one has experience because with the new practice rules - everyone uses the punter.

     

    There is not enough practice time for any position players to hold.  FG, Punt, Long Snapping - all get practiced and worked on at the same time as the rest of the team is practicing.

     

    When guys like Tasker or Reich held - lots of back up QBs held - because they had unlimited practice time so they could stay after and hold.

     

    It will be just like every other team and the punter will hold. One of the backups will get a chance to hold in case of injury, but other than that it will be the punter.

     

     

    Isn't AJ Epennessa the back up long snapper?

    Only two home games in first seven weeks. Brutal.

    The NFL schedule makers screw the Bills fan on the ground once again.  Two home games in Nov and Dec and one in January.  That is five of eight in the cold season.  The stadium fans  (the TV studio of today) don't count.   The Bills get a bye in Oct, a good weather month.  This has happened year after year, and is one principal reason I dropped my seasons.
