I'd still like to see what this team can do when fully healthy... Dareus, Lawson, Ragland, Glenn, Watkins, etc... for that reason I don't think Rex or Whaley get canned if they miss the playoffs this season.
-
So you're saying there's a chance he plays! Yes!!
-
I watch all the games and cheer for them to win every week, playoffs or not, it doesn't matter.... because I'm a Bills fan.

How does TT get worse than last year? I don't get it. We've heard all the talk of the first team reps and how much he put into improving this offseason, then he looks like a rookie in his first game. I don't understand why he sucked so bad.. it's like he regressed, and not just a by a little bit. Disappointing.... but you see it happen all the time in the NFL. QBs look great for a bit, then fall off them map once defenses learn enough to start gameplaning around their tendencies. Hopefully he figures it out.

Penalties, lots and lots of penalties.

How does Schefter know this and not Buffalo media? Scheister said his foot "got tired". What does that even mean? Ever have a tired foot?

Bengals Panthers

...but wah no black female quarterbacks on BUffalo's roster?
-
What does that even mean? Run deep routes?
-
What in God's name does Rex Ryan have his LB's doing during a practice? Running barefoot over spilled legos while linemen dive at their knees?
-
Sophomore slump, he'll be OK, but I expect more teams to challenge him this season.
-
I like Aaron, I really do, he's a fine safety. Liked him at Texas too. Unfortunately, I don't see him making the final roster. He has a career threatening issue with his neck, one bad hit and he's done. I don't expect him to make it through camp, it's time for him to look for something else outside of football.

He's only started 9, 14, 12 games each of the past 3 years. He got injured making a routine tackle last season. Durability is a huge concern IMO... same with Tyrod.
-
I'll make a prediction. EJ starts at minimum 3 games this season, and plays so well that we have a QB controversy on our hands when Taylor gets healthy.

Mighty Taco?

A foot for a WR is always a concern. Dez came back, wasn't the same and had another procedure. Edelman came back and just went for his second procedure and is now in a walking boot. Julio Jones had a bunch of complications before he came back. Durant had 3 surgeries on his broken foot. One good thing here is the same surgeon that worked with Julio is now working with Sammy, hopefully that helps. Biggest thing is he needs to rest and let it heal fully, heck stay out until Sept. don't rush back.
Wonder how much these aging field turf surfaces are contributing to these types of injuries.
Note that the Bills are the only team in the NFL to use the A-Turf Titan field turf product. "A-Turf" is a company based in Cheektowaga, NY.
Buffalo likes to draft guys out of the SEC, where just about all the surfaces are grass. That said, the artificial surfaces in the NFL are much more sticky than natural grass. I'm not surprised to see these guys pulling up lame at the Ralph as often as they do. That TD catch Sammy had last season, nobody around him, but his foot stuck to the turf and he suffered a severe injury. That injury wouldn't have happened on grass.

The last bit is interesting. I remember when the bills under Jauron fielded an untalented bend but don't break defense that was frequently bulldozed and also annihilated by injuries.
I started to think it was symptomatic at the team level of guys being lower on the talent scale and thus having to really push hard to compete at the NFL level, causing more propensity to get hurt.
Could be something to that... Sammy though has nothing close to a talent deficit, so it's certainly not a universal law even if it's somewhat true en mass.
Goodwin is an olympic level athlete, just doesn't have the musculoskeletal talent to withstand NFL punishment. I'm afraid Watkins' issues are following a similar trend.
Exaggerate much or not actually watch Buffalo Bills football?

He's only started every game in 50% of the seasons he's played. It's literally a coin flip if he'll play every game this year.

This entire team is glass.
Gilmore goes out for the season on a simple shoulder tackle. Taylor, Watkins, McCoy, pretty much questionable every single game. Kyle Williams every year. Now Swaq Lawson.
There's a quote about guys who get hurt a lot... something to the effect that if you're always getting hurt, you're not good enough to be playing in the NFL. It's not bad luck, it's that you're not a good enough athlete to avoid getting injured.
-
But we were told the same thing last year.... "this defense could be the best of all-time, blah blah blah."
I like the moves, but I'm not getting my hopes up until i see some production on the field.
Can Gilmore stay healthy? Can Kyle Williams stay healthy? Who's our starting safety's? How they gonna stop Gronk/Brady? Will Carpenter get back to his 2014-15 form?

This was an 8-8 team last season, their personnel got worse this year.... I'm not sure what everyone expected.
GONE: Mario, Karlos, M. Lawson, Bradham, Rambo
MIA: Dareus, S. Lawson, Ragland, Watkins
...this is at best a 5-11 team.
