Some truly nasty comments coming dangerously close to racial stereotyping. The assumption that Dareus is faking an injury, that he's a malingerer content to kick back because he got a big contract, all based on not a shred of evidence, is tasteless at a minimum. What's next, fried chicken and watermelon jokes? Unbelievable.

Well, all the Bills have to do is stuff Blount, neutralize Bennett and Gronk, harass Edelman, Amendola and Hogan, and sack/hit Tom Terrific about fifteen times. No problem.

No wonder Rex was so gaga over him last week.

Who's the blond next to her?

Right there you're incorrect. Lynn's mistake was trying to run instead of passing. I don't have the stat in front of me right now but on something like 70% or more of first downs, Lynn called a run. And Miami was waiting for it every time. And he was trying to pull it off with a gimpy McCoy. What I kept hoping he'd do, what with Miami's D line just licking their chops waiting for Shady, was a play action.

If your name isn't Pegula, why do you care? Seriously. Why do you care?

Why do you care what he's paid? It ain't your money.

No, he shouldn't be suspended. BUT someone on the Bills should have broken his leg.

And that college was Stanford. Not bad.

80 is warm w/o being intolerably hot.

It's not exactly racist but what the heck do you have against the people of Wales?

Two questions:Why do think Chicago would make that deal? And who would be the Bills backup QB?

Didn't say that. What I am suggesting is a bias towards the NFCE, the Giants especially, which might be expressed as being more forgiving towards its miscreants.

It all sounds good so long as TT remains healthy.

At its core, the NFL is all about the NFCE and the Giants in particular, and so it's been forever. In many ways, it's the NFCE then everybody else. The league is NYC-based, as are the media companies, the ad agencies, the bankers. And many of the execs are area natives. Does a day go by that NFLN doesn't do numerous reports on every little detail of the Giants, not to mention the other three NFCE teams? Meanwhile, you can go hours if not days with almost nothing on other teams, save 4 or 5 franchises who have a national following (Packers, Steelers, Raiders, Pats, etc.) or a currently hot team like the Bills, though they drop those teams in a hurry when they cool off, something that never happens to NFCE teams no matter how poorly they play. So no surprise that a Josh Brown, playing in NYC, appears to get more "sensitive" treatment than someone playing for the Browns or some other "minor" franchise.

That's as old school as "Franklin Ajayi." Love high level obscure references.

Exactly. Get him a little bit used to the smack and speed of the pro game this week and turn him loose against NE.

Don't have time to go through this right now so it might have been mentioned...because of his speed, and because he can at anytime take one to the house, the D has to prepare for, and account for him. That's in spite of his less than stellar contributions. This helps with the run game and the short passing game. Overall, it's better to have him out there than not. Just wish he added more.

Nice analysis. Good to have actual factual data.

To me, the one player whose loss would truly devastate the team is Tyrod. Losing Shady would be a serious blow but he can be replaced. Sure, Bush and Touchdown Mike and New Williams aren't close to his level, but they can play enough to keep the team rolling. Lose TT and it's EJ or even Cardale. Yikes!

There you have it.

The Dolphins are likely to go heavy against the run at the start so if the Bills open the game with a run-first look, it might be a great time to hit them with play action. A couple of big gains, maybe even a TD, right away would mess with the Fins minds.

The only sport God watches.

Ha! Good one first thing in the morning. But I now have coffee spritzed over the screen.

Baldinger is one of the few national football analysts/commentators who always knows what he's talking about and has long touted the Bills when they had it going, particularly the line. And usually in the face of smirks from the other guys. Very fair, very insightful guy.
