Uhm. OK? Maybe to PS rather than the 53? If it's to the 53 who is gone from the previous calculus?
Maybe thus is for the first 6 week until the two suspensions have been served.

I think if a deal isn't done but week 1 (and unless he buckles I don't think it will) he will reluctantly come back for the season opener.
That's where it's gonna get real nasty. He will push too fast too soon, not be in football shape and end up with a soft tissue injury. And he will take his time coming back from it.
I see a very legitimate path to him ending up on IR and missing a bunch of weeks. No new deal ..no reason to rush back will be his thought. All in all I expect him, if this extends to week 1, to miss more games than Joey Bosa. He will end the season and his Bills tenure on a down note and head to free agency. And he won't find the deal he's looking for there either.
This makes a lot of sense.

Their division has suddenly become very strong...
The Broncos entered last years playoffs as a hot commodity before they were blown away by the Bills in the Wild Card. They will be more better in season 2 of Nix.
The Chargers have a great coach and he is getting the best out of his team and QB...He will have his team compete harder in the division
Pete Caroll is a wildcard and he could bring his magic to Vegas
More better. Come on man. Are you for real?

I’ve been perusing various articles as TC has gotten started, and one of the things that sticks out is media coverage of how many picks a QB has thrown in practice. I remember Mahomes’ first “real” season as the starter when it was reported that he threw 5 picks in one practice (or something like that), and we all know what happened next.
Well, I just read that Drake Maye hasn’t thrown a pick in 7 practices. Saw the same for some other QB (might have been Mahomes -- edit: it was Tua). How much stock do you put into that? My feeling has always been that practice is the time to try everything and force throws you wouldn’t necessarily make during the season. Josh has thrown a number of picks this camp, but it doesn’t worry me at all.
It strikes me as being similar to the way media reports completion percentages in camp…i.e., not worth much of anything.
Agree? Disagree?
Strongly agree. Camp is a time to experiment and try new things. These statistics do not usually translate to the regular season imho.

I would vote for Dion Dawkins. Maybe James Cook, but Dawkins has been playing at a pro bowl level for many seasons.

The problem for the Bills is that they've only had 5 competent coaches in their entire history
Is Chan Gailey the 5th?

We seem to be inclined towards addictive behavior as a nation. We have the highest rate of Drug disorder PER CAPITAL in the world and it's not really close. We are the largest illegal drug market on the planet.
Gambling is a problem and it's going to get worse

Nieve to think betting is beyond corruption IMO.
I didn't say there would be not corruption. It will be controlled sufficiently to minimize any negative effect on sports.

LOT more accessible now, so it will likely find more people whose predilections would have otherwise never been unearthed.
The idea that it's regulated now, and therefore somehow more controlled, is a nice concept I hope could be true. But that seems unlikely.
Either way, sports and sports betting can never be uncoupled now. So they will coexist as long as sports media contracts continue to prop up the insane appetites of all professional sports ownership groups. There is still much room for growth, provided the proposed new markets will continue to accept what we're selling. Seems likely to go on for at least a bit longer, innit?
I live in Las Vegas. Believe me,betting is monitored and controlled. Betting trends are carefully watched and any large or unusual bets are flagged and investigated.
With the money the betting industry generates, many eyes are on every aspect. It is nieve to think betting is beyond control.

I remember Lou Piccone signing a football card for me after a game.
Yes, Lou Piccone was the first name to come to mind as well. He was a hustler on special teams and a grinder on offense.
He was a crowd favorite.

There has always been gambling in sports. Now that it's legal, it can be monitored.
England has had sports betting for a long time.
I believe sports will coexist with betting and be just fine.

This brings up fond memories and a funny story.
I was away for the weekend and got home late Sunday night. I had recorded this game on a VHS tape. I sat down to watch the game and to my disappointment the tape ran out before the end of the game.
I accepted that the Bills lost the game and went to bed.
It wasn't until Monday morning that I saw the Bills won! I couldn't believe it.
That was a magical year and the beginning of a fun run for our beloved Bills.

Not thru authoritarianism. I guess you one of Americans who support that?
Face it. The train wreck that was the Biden administration and is the Demicratic party is what got Trump elected. Lies, cover-up, insane policies like open boarders, exploiting poor people and keeping them poor is what the Democratic party is all about.
Get your own house in order before complaining about an administration that is trying to fix what the left screwed up.

Since it’s the time of year for offseason topics, what are some Bills games that still haunt you that you will never rewatch? NFL network is always showing replays. When the following games come on I turn my head or throw up. To this day I have never rewatched the following as they are too painful to relive.
Bill Titans wildcard - January 2000Bills Cowboys - MNF October 2007
Bills Browns - MNF November 2008
Bills Patriots - MNF September 2009
Bills Chiefs Divisional - January 2022
Bills Bengals Divisional - January 2023
Bills Broncos - MNF November 2023
Bills Chiefs Divisional - January 2024
Bills Chiefs Championship - January 2024
Just about every other game since 2000 I have watched highlights or rewatched a condensed version at some point.
What are yours?
You covered most of them.
That is a sad and lengthy number of heart breaking losses for one franchise.

He’s been a team player for 3 years! This is a negotiating tactic and as a running back he gets one shot at this. You’re making it sound like he’s the first guy to ever do this.
Your reaction is valid as a fan, but it’s why you’re a fan and not an executive or agent. He’s not being pouty or a child, it’s actually a calculated strategy. If he gets hurt, it diminishes his value, so he is minimizing risk. I’m sure the team would like to see him there, but they aren’t taking it personally-it’s business
I highly doubt he will be there next week, and don’t be surprised if he misses a couple of days of training camp. That being said, he will end up in training camp, some very misguided fans will boo him, he will be there opening day and he will play hard for a contract if he doesn’t get one during training camp. He knows sitting out games isn’t going to get him paid big money
I have been around long enough to see this tactic play out many times. It seldom generates the desired long term results.
Every player is risking injury every time they step on the field. It's part of the game. That is part of the reason why the average NFL career is about 5 years or so.
In my opinion, Cook is over valuing his worth and is hurting his reputation by his actions.
In most cases, giving a rb a second huge contract is a mistake. I know, you can argue that it worked out for the Eagles and the Ravens, but their success was not mostly driven by their rbs. Those teams are loaded.

Cook is getting really bad advice from his brother or someone.
He should attend minicamp, attend all preseason training, and be a team player throughout the season.
That will get him a much better contract than acting like a pouty little kid that is mad because he didn't get his way.
Grow up Cook.
