  1. Every year is getting shorter never seem to find the time.
  2. Bills TE Lee Smith is rooting for rookie Tommy Sweeney Bills tight end Tommy Sweeney has one of his biggest fans very close to home. It’s teammate Lee Smith. Both playing the same position, it could be tough to imagine both players making the team’s final roster. Especially with the roller coaster the Bills have had at the position this offseason. “There’s nobody pulling for more than me. I was him,” Smith told the team’s website. “Like I said I was a later round pick who was just trying to find my way in the league. And I had good veteran, Kyle Williams around me back in those days, he showed me how to be a true pro.” Smith wasn’t a seventh rounder, but he was a later pick in the fifth in 2011 by the Bills, so he can level with the rookie.
  3. Buffalo Bills release E.J. Gaines from injured reserve with settlement By reaching an injury settlement, the Bills pay him for his time on injured reserve but not the entire season. With a six week injury starting August 10th, Buffalo will probably pay him two or weeks of his 2019 salary (unless there was a previous figure already included in his contract being that he is so often injured). Now Gaines is free to sign with a new team any time he is healthy. He can rejoin the Bills six weeks after the expiration of the injury settlement, as well. That would mean if Buffalo needs cornerback help around the start of November and Gaines is available, he can come back to the squad.
  4. all he has to do is use the new OL/WR corps to his advantage. make better decisions with the ball rather then run and help lead the team to wins and it will/should shut all the critics up. sounds simple and will be a lot of work but I have confidence he will have a much better 2nd season.
  5. Buffalo Bills’ Josh Allen dead last in PFF’s 2019 NFL starting quarterback rankings Like Rosen, Allen had a rough supporting cast as a rookie, though his uneven play resembled what he showed at Wyoming. He finished with the No. 25 overall grade at 65.3, showing off the expected big arm that led to the No. 12 percentage of big-time throws, but also the poor decision-making and inaccuracy that led to a No. 30 ranking at avoiding turnover-worthy plays. There are similarities to Lamar Jackson as they both have throw-for-throw accuracy concerns (Allen ranked 33rd out of 35 qualifiers after ranking poorly in college), but there are avenues for future success. Allen’s best bet is continuing to make the big plays down the field while complementing with the rushing ability that saw him rush for a league-high 508 yards on scrambles while posting the No. 4 rushing grade among quarterbacks, at 81.4. A new group of playmakers may give Allen a few more open throws to help with the accuracy issues, and he looks like a quarterback who will struggle with week-to-week consistency but will put together monster stretches of play that will make life difficult on opposing defenses.
  6. sorry mac, orton was a scrub back up, 9 seasons of accomplishing nothing. manuel, well, everyone knows his history. I'm not going back and forth with you on this because JA and MB are going to make their own history, a history that has not been written yet. I'm pretty confident though that they will fare much better then manuel/orton.
  7. it's because there hasn't been enough games played by the present to even consider comparing to the past. has nothing to do with the fact that both examples you use are mere scrubs.
  8. time will tell but I still wouldn't compare them to manuel/orton.
  9. again, lets just hope if his number is called it isn't for more then a game or two. at this point it's who they're rolling with so, it is what it is.
  10. he's the back up. he's better then thigpen or the likes they've had at back up in the past. at the end of the day you just hope his number isn't called on and if so, it's only for a game or two. no need to be hell bent in painting such a bad picture of the kid, he's the back up QB, no more, no less.
  11. this is hilarious and I'd bet 10 to 1 it was the full intent of getting the obvious reaction to such a ridiculous take. good job
  12. would hate to lose him. the kid has some talent and can be explosive. you can say rb's are a dime a dozen, which is pretty much true. losing him to another team is possible I just hope it isn't the stinking patsies**.
