That's generally not how practice reps go.
In the final practice before a game, the guy that's starting is going to take the starter's reps.
You are really calling this a game?

That house really can't be 39.5 million?!?!

Not really.
There's zero expectation that he'll play on Thursday, so they're getting Bodine the reps with Allen since he'll very likely be the starting center.
The amount of Bodine snaps to Allen in his career versus Morse snaps to Allen is like 1,000 times more. Does Morse not plan on snapping to Allen at all this year?
If you remember when Morse was practicing, there were snap issues between the two.
If Morse can snap, I want it going to the starting QB. It is unsure how many times Morse will be able to do this before the regular season. Anytime you can get some snaps in, it should be Morse to Allen.

Interesting that he is hiking the ball to Barkley.

Why is this injury so secretive?
From the minute he missed the first second at camp, it has been strange.
McDermott acts like the reporter is doing a disservice by asking about Morse.

I wonder what the signing of a guy like Jones vs, say, Sam Young, who has started a bunch of games in the NFL, means.
Does it mean that they have faith in Connor McDermott or De'ondre Wesley to be a capable swing tackle? Does it mean that they envision Ford at RT once the injured guards return, which will push Nsekhe back to swing, thus not necessitating any major additions at tackle?
I can't help but read into what this signing might mean...Sam Young was supposed to try out today. He could still sign.
They lost 3 olineman so far and have only signed 2.

See no point for him to make team to do this all year.
I liked Ryan Lewis last year.
-
Sucks for him, but he was really fall down the depth chart recently.

I think the most interesting part of the injury was that he was running 3rd team when he got hurt even with Ford getting kicked inside.
Didn't sound too promising for him making this team.

WGR talking how Morse might miss entire year. Wondering if that is what is being talked about in Rochester around the campus.

I'm sure he will get paid his money, but does it count against the cap if he has to retire?
Yeap. A whole lot of it next two years
-
No way he lasts. I give it a couple weeks until he retires again.

OK I get the panic vibe emanating from you on this. I went to camp yesterday and noticed that O-Line minus Morse and Long looked out of sync - to be expected with the key position C (Morse), and one of the most tenured vets (Long) being missing. In addition Dawkins missed a series and Nsekhe had to play LT so lots of discombobulation in the live 11 on 11.
Bodine will not make the roster and neither will Ducasse. IMHO Dawkins, Spain, Morse, Ford and Nsekhe are there best 5 Olinemen and should lineup as such. Long and Feliciano are Interior O-Line backups and Waddle is the backup swing tackle. Teller may make the 53 but will seldom dress in this scenario. Or they rotate week to week between Long and Feliciano as C/G backup.
They are probably taking 9 O lineman and Bodine provides way more security than Teller.
Not to mention, Teller is straight trash. Not even sure if Bills will try and put him back on PS

Has Mitch ever played RT or RG because I think at this point that’s where he needs to be. Centers hike the ball and then they are helmet to helmet right off the snap. I would take a healthy good RT or RG for 3 years over a injured center. I think at this point with all the concussions that he’s had it’s too serious not to overlook the possibility of a position change.
He belongs off the football field. Something clearly isn't right.

Overstating the obvious, this certainly isn't good for the player, the QB, and the team overall.
Maybe time to trade Shady for a more experienced Center than Bodine. My point around this is with Gore, Singletary, Yeldon on roster from a depth perspective (and Shady's production last year) .. I think Center its important role and the drop off from Morse to Bodine is more serious than drop off at RB if Shady traded.
Though the injury sucks, wonder who along the D caused the concussion, first week in pads. Ed Oliver? I like what I'm hearing about our D so far in training camp and if their blasting OL in first week of practice maybe there is a positive thread in this injury disaster.
The guy has 74 starts in his career. Where are you going to find a more experienced center than Bodine.
I sometimes feel people don't even watch the games or expect perfection out of every player.
Bodine was more than serviceable last year with some of the worst guards the NFL has seen.

Right, 1 concussion in the first practice.. this sounds like a guy who is done. I don't understand the people downplaying this. It's his what 5th concussion?
In an era where everyone is super sensitive and aware of the consequences this is bad. I'd be surprised if he plays in many games as a Bill.
Baffling to me.
I'll tell you what, no way I'm cutting Bodine. I liked him last year and thought the Oline took a step back when he was out. He is a decent player in this league.

You do realize that the whistle blows for a sack in practice well before the issue is decided, right? Apparently Prescott Rossi, whoever the heck he is, does not.
Pretty sure they had refs there today who were blowing them dead.
-
Concerning to say the least.
I just don't understand how this happened so easily. In his PC he was talking about all the neurology work he did, yet 1 day into padded practices, he has a concussion already? How the heck is he going to play in this league?

If you give a player an injury settlement I don't think you can do that.
Yes you can. There is just a time frame on it.

Sirles was good. Wonder if this is a way to re-sign him later on.
-
Like I said the other day. Allen's great days are being overblown. He needs to be quicker with progressions.

I think the "entitlement" narrative in regards to millennials is overplayed and lacks credence.
I was recently contracted to handle a pretty big labor dispute due to pensions going away. The entitled group was not the millennials, it was these baby boomers.
When I was comparing the salaries within the organization, the baby boomers were making roughly 30% more than the millennials. This was due to OT. After a year in the organization, everyone was pretty much on even playing field in terms of base pay. You add this up year after year, and it was just ridiculous how much more a baby boomer made over a millennial in a 5 year span due to OT distribution rules. When it came time to cut pensions (lump sums were paid based on age and experience), the amount of cry babies for baby boomers was disgusting. Millennials couldn't have been happier with what they were given during these cuts. They were honestly just happy to still have a job to try and raise a family with.
In terms of managing the different people in my firm, I can't say enough great things about millennials. Some really intelligent great people out there that actually like working with others. Baby boomers will give zero time of day to anyone that isn't in the same age group. Millennials on the other hand will help anyone with a smile.

Generational generalizations are useless and just show a lack of intelligence to rationalize an entire generation based on a small sample size that you may know.
In saying that, anyone that gets a pension can never say anything bad about any other generation, especially when that pension comes after working 20-25 years.
There is nothing more eye rolling than when a 50 year old complains about how low their pension is and how they will need to pay for health insurance.
Try working for no pension and paying 10x boomers every had to pay for health insurance.
When someone asks for 50k out of college thats because that is what they need to live and still have to work for 35 years. After putting 100 dollars a week for retirement, higher payroll taxes, 100 dollars a week for HC (which would be low), 150 a week towards student loans.
That 950 a week just turned into maybe 400 dollars for rent, car, eating, etc. Try raising a family on that.
Love these middle aged folks that love to just expect the younger generation to work harder than them, with 1/4 the benefits they got, but don't let them hear you complain or you will be called the entitled crybaby.

Mitch Morse in concussion protocol
in The Stadium Wall Archives
Posted
Then why was Barkley taking snaps from Morse? Shouldn't he be taking snaps from the backup center?
You're just making stuff up to make your point. It is still training camp, and no they are not treating this like a Friday practice in regular season.
