Bored and watching the Michigan vs Michigan State game. U of M has a WR named McDoom (#13). I don't know about you guys, but, according to my math, McDoom + McBeane = McDoomBeane 2018 UDFA? Justsayin' I'm here all night, folks...

Don't worry, fellas, Uncle RICO will figure out how to get Tyrod to audible...

+1

Wait... I believe you are inaccurate. I just read in sub-clause 204.5b of the NFL Rules (2017 Extended Edition) that it only doesn't count when the Bills beat an inferior opponent. Sub-clause 204.5a CLEARLY states that when the Pats**** defeat an inferior opponent, the NFL Gods gloat in heaven, and inflate Brady's cajones by .036 psi.

+1 for Sal C!

Before we all freak out... Alex Smith will regress to his mean: 198.7 ypg (career). Even if we take his stats from 2012 - 2016, his mean is only 213.5 ypg. Stats, from Pro-Football Reference.com: https://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/S/SmitAl03.htm#passing::none Our KC pick isn't doomed to be #32... Smith's stats, plus losing Berry for the year, means KC will be a good, team, possibly miss the playoffs (sans Berry), and give us a pick between 12 and 23. That's my estimate; quote me on it!

This is clearly #fakenews The Bills are the only NFL team allowed to have suspect depth! Every other team in the NFL is six deep at WLB, MLB, SLB, CB, S, QB, RB, FB, and WR. Some teams are only five deep at K and PR, but otherwise... I digress...

No. The Pats* are absolute angels; they would never rub dirt in anyone's face... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=syI049_Hyf0

You call that a bold prediction? There's no way that's not happening!

Whaley will go rogue, and bring back TBD-favorite, Da'Rick Rodgers, who Rex will convert to a field-goal-faking, option-QB specialist. Rodgers will be sacked when Goodell--using the Belichick-ian SpyGate methodology--finds out he uses pine tar to hold his jock strap in place, and Joe Webb will become our field-goal-faking, option-QB. Webb will go on to set the NFL record for most TD's off field goal fakes, while also filling in for Cordy Glenn at LT, who will miss three and two-thirds games with a massive sty in his eye. While recuperating from the sty, Glenn will create a new and incredibly popular salsa, to be served with the Russ Brandon developed and patented Jordan Matthew's Sternum Chips. Although the Bills will only go 4-12, the sales of Jordan Matthew Sternum Chips and Cordy's secret salsa will raise enough money to buy Robert Kraft, who will be roasted at a stake in Hammer's Lot on New Year's Day, ending the Bill's 17-year curse. McDermott will chalk it up to the team's love for one another, and there will be much rejoicing. Either that, or we will be entertaining to watch this year... I can't quite read the tea leaves; they're shimmying around like Shady, at the moment...

Nope!

Who is paying to read sad sap Sully's downerism? http://buffalonews.com/subscribe-bills/ Tell me: who? I can imagine some kid in Buffalo, begging his parents for a subscription this Christmas... Yeah... And Thad Lewis will be our starter in 2018.

I hear they may or may not cause CTE.

GhostOfBillsPast: I want to see fifteen QB's next year who could be NFL franchise level, but this tape had me like

Thank you for significantly improving my life, billsbackto81! I'd never seen that interview; best use of 2:13 in awhile.

I betcha he runs like his hair's on fire

Bolton? No wonder we lost! We had Tyrod throwing to this guy:

The injury argument is fallacious. EVERY team in the NFL has a significant drop-off if their 1st string (enter any position) goes down. Examples: If Atlanta's top RB (Devonta Freeman) goes down and 2nd stringer (Tevin Coleman) gets nicked up... Do you fear Terron Ward? If Dallas' top RB is out... Oh wait... He is ... and Darren McFadden goes down and Alfred Morris gets nicked up... Do you fear Ronnie Hillman? If Green Bay's Ty Montgomery... Wait... Do you even know who Ty Montgomery is? Well, if he goes down... The only team with a deep RB stable is, of course, the hated Pats... But they always do well; they are the outliers in this. Point being: Injuries can (and DO) hurt ANY team in the NFL. We aren't alone in this. Don't argue that we are worse off than other teams; all teams have weaknesses beyond their 1st and 2nd player at ALL positions. Your argument is #failblog #realitycheck #canbethesameargumentforeveryteamintheleage

-(A given) No injuries. -A Darby fricassee by Zay Jones. -Boldin + Tyrod connection growing stronger. -No dummy penalties. -A JWil TD scamper. -FB screens galore. -Yarbrough dominance continued. -Our CB's stepping up with INT's. -Peterman able to direct a high-pressure drive (ie. An end of the halfer or one where he overcomes some 3rd and longs). -PBrown & Hodges directing LB traffic.

December 7th, 1941, or August 11th, 2017? I feel like we won't be able to truly evaluate this until about 2020, as draft picks mature, and our--hoped-for--franchise QB emerges... still, WOW! My question: When do all of you TSWers think we'll be able to judge today's moves? What will be the points upon which you judge the moves? Is it all for the franchise QB, or is this more of a re-shaping of the way we will be building rosters under this regime? I'd love to hear your insights!

Is this the real life???

I can't get the embed to work... but you get the idea. I know, right?

Every single year, it seems as though a rash of either terrible injuries or impossibly bad fortune decimates the Bills. I'm not saying I'm glad about Tanny going down, but I am relieved that for one time in the nearly four decades I've been alive, a major injury or ridiculously impossible, playoff-hope-defeating play DIDN'T happen to the Bills. I would say football isn't fair, but look... let's be honest... football has NOT been fair to the Bills... Ever... I mean, our curse is part of the social lexicon... X-Files, anyone? https://www.youtube.com/embed/NyhAJEPEHk4 Yeah... we have been screwed by mis-aligned stars, stupid coaching (10 on the field, HEX Ryan...), freak injuries (1st and 2nd round pick last year: Ragland & Shaq), Bryce Brown (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3wvG0b9_pNQ), Kevin Kolb's mat-slip leading to the all-too-early introduction of E.J. Manuel, E.J. Manuel (in general), The Music City Miracle ( ), Scott Norwood ( )... I could write 100+ pages worth of irrationally bad things that have happened to the Bills. Am I happy about Tanny going down? NO! It sucks. He seems like a good guy, and he's worked hard to become an above-average starter in this league. He's no Jarvis Landry (who, IMHO, should be out of the league for ending AW's career); I have no hate for Tanny. At the same time, am I relieved that, FOR ONCE (other than the one year Brady was injured, which we, of course, DID NOT capitalize on), the shitclouds didn't dump all on Buffalo? ABSO-FU*#%@^-LOUTELY!!!

Thanks for the ray of hope, Promo! I agree: it seems like we got a steal in Hodges, who we have yet to see really play here in camp. I'm looking forward to seeing him hit, and to see his purported cover-skills in game-action against the Vikings and during the red/white scrimmages coming up this week. Also, if Ragland ends up being depth, that's some seriously talented depth (SEC Defensive P.O.Y. in 2015!). Add to Rags the fact that I heard that Vallejo and Milano have mixed in with the 1's at camp, and that Milano had a really nice pick-6 the other day. Maybe our depth isn't as bad as people think!
