  1. I don't like that they put it in well after the start of free agency and the draft with only a one year trial period. The Bills as we know value Special Teams when making free agency signings and draft picks. Squib kicks are too volatile and most teams just prefer to take it at the 25 so they don't get called for a penalty that will set them back or have a player injured. The slight chance of a significant kick return isn't worth the risk for most teams. Maybe it will be for the Bills who should stress the opponents kick off coverage if they feel they have the significant advantage in Special Teams personnel. Maybe losing Hines changes that thought depending on Harty's acumen.
  2. The Ravens tried that the week before that game and got burned multiple times in the 4th quarter.
  3. Yeah. Most teams won't bring a blitz with Waddle and Hill on 3rd and 22. Especially when we had that rookie CB practice squad player in who's name escapes me. Just terrible execution from an inexperienced secondary. If I remember that play correctly the Dolphins only had three WR's running down the field as their TE chipped Miller and their RB stayed in to pass protect. Three against eight shouldn't lead to a conversion on 3rd and 22.
  4. So, the better overall team on average wins more. Great Scott.
  5. Knox, Kincaid, Diggs, and Davis would put the most stress on a defense. Cook in the backfield.
  6. Pry not that much. Maybe a 1st, 2nd, and a 4th or something like that. The Lions come to mind as they have the need, the cap space, the draft capital, and the belief that they could be consistent contenders.
  7. They're not. You can't force somebody to heat healthy but you can provide them all the resources necessary if they decide to. From a Buffalo News article in 2018. “It’s a mass production,” Greenberg said. “A lot goes into it. The staff is here at 4 a.m. getting ready, and here until 7 p.m. cleaning up. We discuss what time of year it is — summer, fall, winter — and the nutrients we want the guys to get in them. What we're going to put out, how we're going to display it, what it's going to look like, there are a lot of decisions. You've got to get a whole bunch of food out there, and make sure it's the highest quality that we can find. They're going to be here for at least breakfast, lunch, if not dinner most of the time, so if we can get them three square meals a day and provide them with the highest-quality food, then I feel like we're doing our job.” That means there aren’t many fried foods to choose from. “We could put out hot dogs and hamburgers, pizza and all that stuff, but we want to fuel them with the highest octane we can,” Greenberg said. “These guys are Ferraris. You don't fill those up with 87 — you use the highest-octane fuel that you can. That's our goal all the time.” The Bills offer players as much — or as little — help with nutrition as they would like. Dziedzic, who joined Pegula Sports and Entertainment in June and bounces between the Bills and Sabres, is available along with Greenberg to construct an individualized plan to meet any goal. “I've been with four teams, it's the best nutrition plan I've ever had when it comes to assortment, health, good taste,” fullback Patrick DiMarco said. “Usually when stuff does taste good, it's not good for you. It’s not that way here. … If we go up or down two pounds, they have meal plans for us. If you need 1,200 calories, here you go — eat this meal. It's very detailed. It's top notch.”
  8. Not sure but it beat Oppenheimer.
  9. The Raiders would be insane to cut him as they'll eat 12.6m and only save about 500k. It would cost us 11.29m to take on his salary in a trade if I'm reading his contract correctly. He'll be at our home opener but as a visiting player.
  10. That's piss poor of Harris and she knows it. That's my take when reading through this stupid controversy.
  11. Why not make this trade before signing Harris and Murray? Not buying it.
  12. Pretty lackluster schedule after a tough start. Browns, Lions, Bears, Pats (twice), Jets, and Fish (twice). We don't know for sure if we'd have lost that Bengals MNF game but the way their offense was moving against our depleted secondary I don't see us likely winning that game.
  13. The Patriot was way Brady taking less money and Bill Belichick being a defensive mastermind. Plus cheating. As far as mental gaffes,
  14. Probably not but this story would be so much more interesting if it was Kirk Cousins instead of Addison.
  15. That makes sense as those are easier to fight. You'll eventually get burned one way or another.
  16. Well, if true Oppenheimer is a pretty fitting ending I guess.
  17. How the frick do you still have a license? The most I've ever gone is 88 and I regret it.
  18. I'm always correct about half the time. My guess is the collective PFF staff overruled Monson's rankings and put Burrow ahead of Allen. The Burrow/Allen debate for QB2 is really splitting hairs. They're definitely in that second tier by themselves behind Mahomes.
  19. Hurts won't even be in the top 50. PFF knows what he has around him.
  20. There's no way they're leaving Donald off the top 50. He's at least top 10 and should pry be top 5.
  21. Top 10 guess in no order considering none were in 11-50: Nick Bosa, Myles Garrett, Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelce, Micah Parsons, Aaron Donald, Trent Williams, Chris Jones, DeVantae Adams, Joe Burrow. That leaves Hurts out of the top 50 behind Lamar and Herbert. Eagles fans are going to be thrilled. He was #2 on Monson's list but this is PFF as a whole's list. He's the #3 QB on this list.
  22. I wonder if the Minnesota cop bothered to give him a breathalyzer.
  23. Way to go out on a limb.
  24. 2021 Titans 8 games with Derrick Henry -147.6 rushing yards per game. Henry: 219 carries, 937 yards, 4.3ypc. 20 carries of ten yards or more (6-2 record) 2021 Titans 9 games after his toe injury with rotating backups - 135.8 yards per game. 193 carries, 908 yards, 4.7ypc. 22 carries of ten yards or more. (6-3 record) It's more about the o-line and scheme and having a back like Henry will give you a little bit more overall (11.8 more rushing yards per game in this case) but not significant enough to pay a back top money.
