Special teams killing it!

2nd place

I could see Nagy getting nervous about his job security and moving to Fields at some point this season, especially if the losses start piling up and/or the offense looks horrendous.

Won’t be surprised if he’s called OOB just short of the goal line.

I hope our 1st string defense looks as good as our 2nd string does! 🤣

Rousseau!

They've looked really good in all phases so far today. Happy for Trubisky. He’s having himself a nice game. I know this one means a lot to him. Glad he’s playing well.

I thought on that last replay it looked like his knee might have been down. Need to see another replay though.

sucks that his last season is another damn tank year. I really wanted the Sabres to make the playoffs one more time before RJ retired.

rsngers fans taking out billboards in Buffalo. This is just so incredibly desperate, but also funny that they are so desperate and that they wasted money on this. Do they actually think it’ll have any effect? They also still don’t seem to get that if Eichel is traded for a less than ideal return, it definitely won’t be to an eastern conference team.

Wtf was that call?! Officials have been brutal.

That interview with Sanders was great. It’s so cool to see how much guys love playing for Josh Allen.

I believe he’s referring to the high ankle sprain he had. If so, I take issue with some of what he says. - The timeline to return from a high ankle sprain is roughly 6-8 weeks for many people (though symptoms can persist for much longer), so for him to say he shouldn’t have even been walking for 6-8 weeks seems like an exaggeration. - Riding a bike is low impact (less impact than walking) and a pretty standard first activity during rehab. They had me riding a bike pretty quickly after I tore my ACL, MCL and meniscus in my knee. It’s important to maintain your mobility (especially if there is scar tissue). It’s also not surprising that they’d want him riding a bike to maintain his stamina. - iirc his set back was around 8 weeks after the initial injury (and I believe it happened once he was back on the ice practicing) so I don’t know that it had to do with the rehab. (edit - I might be remembering wrong on when the setback happened). Lehner talks a lot of **** about the Sabres, and a lot of **** in general. I don’t totally discount what he says though, because the Sabres did hire that one head trainer then fire him 8 months later (which is who was handling Lehner’s injury).

looks like it’s $6.5M x 3 years. 😢

Mine was supposed to be last year but 2020 had other plans...

Reminder that Hard Knocks premiers tonight at 10pm (EST)

Agreed, it drives me nuts! If you have a pair of headphones try listening with those. That’s what I did and it allowed me to hear the reporters questions. Josh Allen was on the left headphone and the reporter questions were on the right headphone. But when I try to listen without headphones I can’t hear the questions 🤷‍♂️

Sure does! 😁

Been waiting a LONG time to have a QB worth a contract like this!

It’s sooo nice to be getting excited about continuity! What a welcome change. I sure like it a lot better than the days of trying to get excited over the newest Bills coach/QB/coordinator (etc) hoping that they’d finally be the one to turn things around.

No wonder the Sabres don’t want Eichel to have this surgery. Seems like every respected expert recommends against disc replacement for any contact sports. Heck, even Dr. Prusmack (the doctor that Eichel wants to do his surgery) says that he would not recommend ADR for an NFL athlete due to the head on collisions. Dr. Prusmack has been a consultant for the Broncos for 2 decades and in that time never recommended an ADR for any NFL player. He says it’s due to the head on impacts. That in the NHL you want your body to flex when hit. Maybe if he were only talking about NFL linemen he’d have a point. But what about skill players like WR’s? how is an open field hit any different from an open ice hit? I’d argue that an open ice hit is even more vicious because of the speed NHL players reach and because of the hard ice surface (vs. turf/grass).

Learned some interesting things with regards to the surgery Eichel wants. https://buffalospinesurgery.com/dr-andrew-cappuccino The Sabres doctor is a world renowned expert and has done disc replacement surgeries himself. Yet he doesn’t recommend it. This is from a round table discussion with other experts: (discussion not related to Eichel, just disc replacement) not sure why none of the quotes are showing in bold, but you get the point anyway https://musculoskeletalkey.com/spine-and-sports-a-roundtable-discussion/ Spine and Sports: A Roundtable Discussion

🤣 To be honest though, I did not use the search function very well... I tried using the search function on this site and it didn’t pop up. I searched the exact title of this thread too, and it didn’t show. Not sure what I did wrong. I tried a couple different searches. I found it via Google search (kind of by accident). 🤷‍♂️
