Chances are they'll be elsewhere next season. Maybe not together but you never know. Daboll is definitely going to get a gig with some team. His schemes are absolutely artful and he seems to only to be getting better.
My sorta prediction is based on the fact that Mitch will be had for about a 3 year 45 million contract. Denver needs a good QB and I think in the right system he Mitch is the guy

I remember all the years of watching Bills preseason games where the Bills looked like the Bears looked tonight. Sloppy, uninspired, outmatched, no urgency.
I would always tell myself "It's just preseason! No need to worry!". Lo and behold, the season would come, and they'd look just like they looked in preseason. I came to realize over the years that to a large degree, preseason performance DOES matter. Sure, the playcalling is vanilla and there are backups scattered throughout the lineup, but the fundamental football questions remain: Are you getting in and out of the offensive huddle crisply and efficiently? Executing your blocking assignments? Tackling with sound fundamentals? Playing tight coverage? Running good routes? Protecting the football? Scoring points? Avoiding 3-and-outs?
I'm so glad that the Bills are finally on the other side of the equation. Despite resting all of the best players on our team, we soundly outplayed the Bears in all three phases. No sloppy penalties or confusion, no dumb, unforced errors (save for McKenzie's fumble), converting on 3rd and 4th down....just generally looking like a well assembled, well coached, relatively deep football team.
Coaching absolutely matters. Seeing McDermott's crew side-by-side with Nagy's crew....no contest. Hats off to coach McDermott. All the credit in the world to him, he's built an excellent program here in Buffalo.Preseason wins don't matter but the fundamentals are very important. Are we tackling, hitting the right holes, do our QB and reciever make the same read of Defense. I was impressed by that today more than anything. Good points

I looking at getting tickets too. Jax in early Nov can still be warm so unless you're a sun lover I'd try and get tickets on the west side lower down as that will be the first area in the shade. It appears that's the side behind the Jax bench.
I did forget about the shade issue. Even in November that much direct sunlight is bad for my Irish skin. That will have to be a consideration.

I see a world were Mitch ends up with Daboll in Denver next year and they are immediately playoff contenders. I understand today was a preseason game but that is an offense without much talent.

I appreciate all of the suggestions- I should have clarified I always check StubHub, tixmaster, and the team site but was curious where best experience is. It has been too long for me

I will be going to my first road game in 15 years in Jacksonville. I have honestly never bought themselves, always had my dad buy them because he always had people in Miami and Jacksonville then. Basically do you worry about section, and is there a "normal" place for visiting fans to sit? I know Bills fans will be 40% of fans at the game but curious on thoughts of those who go to road games often.

Are you really going to pretend that you thought that comment was anti anything except opening the border? If you did not realize it you truly have no sense of humor.

Well they are following in the fine fine tradition of the Orlando Sentinel who called one of my teacher friends a white supremacist for a tweet that was anti Sharia law. She though is the direct descendant of slaves and the tweet was all about the rights women lose under Sharia. The Sentinel though called it a white supremacist tweet.

They weren't dumb AT THE TIME. Remember, the accepted thinking in the early days of all of this (think February/March/April 2020) was that COVID was spread by droplets - something plexiglass shields would contain. Same thing with the 6-foot social distancing, which would at least in theory prevent most droplet transmission. And same too with the incessant wiping down of surfaces. Masks are not so good against aerosols (they're great against droplets), but they have some positive impact.
The problem is we seem to have lost the ability adapt quickly. From Summer 2020 on, it became clear that the primary mode of transmission was through aerosols. And that the primary way to avoid this is to ensure high air turnover rates. So from that time on it became bad policy to focus on plexiglass when we should've been spending our money on ventilation. Same for schools - some schools have improved ventilation, others not at all.
You and I agree completely that the biggest issue is that we are not adjusting quickly. When new information comes in the last ones to react are government forces and they usually are making things change based on old info. It is nice to know we can agree on something.

What is odd to me that no one is discussing how much the passport will negatively effect minorities. Whites are vaccinated at a much higher rate than blacks and especially rich white people compared to poor blacks. The same people who complained how voter ID laws hurt 4% of blacks see no issue with slamming the door on 50% of blacks on a daily basis

I think we are most likely 14-3. losses vs the Titans, after laying KC that is a tough game. We lose to colts because Reich has the good luck this game. Finally we lose to Bucs because we are too hyped and play out of control. Thou looking at the schedule if this teams wins less than 11 I will shocked.

Losing a whole season in a preseason practice sucks. Especially for team with so many holes like Jets.

How do you reconcile this, 22 accusations for Watson, vs 2 accusations for AB? the NFL is hypocritical and doesn't want to lose money with ticket sales in Houston, period. AB was exempt-listed when he was a top 3 WR, but that's not the same as a Top 5 QB. Money is the only reason Watson isn't on the exempt list.
I am too lazy to look up AB but would Pitt have sat him? Houston is making it easy for NFL not to react. As for Watson the NFL can always impose the suspension once Texans take theirs off, and I think the NFL is trying to figure out how to ban him for life if he is found guilty of all these women.

They can do a number of things:First, and foremost, is that they should place him on the commissioners exempt list. Essentially, this would remove him from the Texans 53 and make him ineligible to play (while still being paid). The NFL has an extensive history (Vick, Hardy, Hunt, etc) of using this process while legal proceedings are underway. It puts the onus on the league, instead of the team, to step in and handle the situation.
Second, they could suspend him temporarily or indefinitely. There does not need to be a civil/criminal charge or a conviction to do so. So to answer your question, it would remove him from the team facilities and dock his pay.
The NFL’s inaction while the legal proceeding play out, although the norm lately in many player situations, is a cop out. In my opinion, they are taking the easy road out, hiding behind due process instead of taking a stand against some obvious injustices. The league claims to champion social issues, promotes equality and wants to appear to be a progressive voice in our country, yet when faced with the chance to take a stand, does nothing.
I will disagree with you on taking any further action since accusations are not charges. Right now he has no charges, just an investigation. If the Texans were dumb enough to say they will let him play then an action would be needed. The main reason I say no further action until at least a formal indictment is right now he is not getting near the field, which is only real punishment from NFL and we don't want a precedent where we are suspending players because of just accusations. I hope the DA office handles this properly and he gets what is coming to him but the NFL can only keep him off field and stop paying him and we are not at the point we're they can stop pay.

The Bills oft-porous defense in the first half of the season forced the offense to keep the pedal down.
1990 Bills had +165 point differential.......1991 "no-punt-game" Bills +140......2020 all-time scoring team Bills +126.
I am sorry but I clearly remember us up by 28 all 16 games. I had forgotten how poor the defense played early.

I’ll say it again, the NFL is embarrassing themselves with how they’re handling this situation.I agree it is embarrassing but how could they handle it better at this point? What does suspending him do that the Texans are not doing themselves?

Truly religious people, let their actions, and deeds in life, speak for their faith.
Tebow has to wear all of that sch!tt on his face, like a Billboard, when he is on the field.
It's disingenuous, to say the least.
I'm sure that his mama will console him, after being cut.
Why do say he is disingenuous? He funds lots of charity events, and is a genuinely nice person from everyone I know who has ever met him.

Bills w/ lowest punt attempts per game last season: https://www.teamrankings.com/nfl/stat/punt-attempts-per-game.
Time for a repeat!
I did not realize we were first but it is amazing that two points a game is the distance from top to almost last. I would have thought that we punted more than average teams in the fourth because we were winning by a couple scores so often.

I don't think I've ever seen so many 2nd and 3rd hand "reports" of a player being arrogant, entitled, etc.
Seems that every other poster on here has a friend that went to college with Rosen that thought he was a jerk.
I still think he was given an awfully raw deal in both ARZ and MIA. I think the quality of the roster strongly contributed towards his terrible numbers - check out Bradford's and Fitz's stats for those seasons, respectively.
Given a stable situation and a team committed to him maybe he would've improved to being a good QB. Who can say? I will say his rookie season wasn't very much different from the right Josh's
I only looked up Fitz's numbers in 2019 vs Wrong Josh. Fitz was 5-8, had a much higher completion %, a 20-13 TD/TO ratio vs Josh 1-5 ratio. Fitz was not great but only competent and much better.

Trump is a ***** leader but I don't think that even his crap leadership could have changed much in deaths and cases during Covid pre-vaccine. He could have been more honest, uniting and a million other things but people would have gotten Covid.
Now, post vaccine, he could have done a lot more.
Quote me the part of that story where it says, "in most cases the vaccine doesn't work after 6 months."
You're the dumbest poster in this thread and that's saying something.
Yeah I got it, you think the vaccine lasts 8 months but you have to stick to the 6 months number because everything else you say you can't back up. I conceded the 8 months when the white house went with it because it is not a hill worth dying on. I would keep arguing with you but you literally don't answer questions and just keep linking to stuff that is not related to the 8 month time frame.

I thought he was better than he is but he can definitely be a weapon. I think he is on team but might get cut for someone more versatile.
