Sacre bleu!!!!

Not against Davis coming back, but... Are we really going to judge Moore's performance thus far from working with Trubisky and White?

It's scary and uninspiring to think that an injury prone Rapp is currently our most experienced and reliable safety. I can't stomach another season (though all of us may most likely have to) with this safety group. They are barely 2nd string quality and if this team suffers another injury to one of the starting CBs their lack of play making will be even more insurmountable. This group may be able to reach the postseason because Allen can carry this defense against mediocre competition in the regular season. But in the playoffs against offenses like KC and Baltimore it may very well end in another nail biter with us on the 💩 end of it. Of course it's JMHO.....

Is Justin Simmons still out there?

I remember Thurman had an 80 yarder against NE FredEx I believe had an 80 against the Giants

Depressed. Extremely depressed.

Tush Push? 🤔

I like Steve well enough like most here, but he does stumble on words and seems to struggle a bit getting his thoughts out. He's the fan favorite, good enough for local radio and podcasts. Just don't expect him doing MNF anytime soon.

Was thinking the same. Very apropos 🤣 Sometimes the best zingers are the ones that just present themselves.

Also consider that Rams may need Williams more than the Bills need Cook. Williams is a 3 down back and the Rams #2 RB is Ronnie Williams who rushed for a whopping 99 yds. last year. Now I'm not saying Cook is easily replaceable, but Davis had 442 yds at almost 4yd a carry in a limited role and presumably would get better with more touches. Ty Johnson is also no slouch and is a great blocker and receiver. I want Cook back as much as everyone else, but he has to be reasonable. 3yr./34 mil /25 guaranteed

Outside of season ending injuries, these are the worse in my opinion. Time lines are so difficult to predict with high ankle sprains and they linger all season long, a lot like turf toe. Hope he's ready for the opener but most likely won't be 100%.

And it actually takes a longer recovery than 2 weeks, at least before any fun can be had. Unfortunately, I know. 🥺

This is what the rest of his training camp should look like.

I love Thurman and he definitely got his due for his accomplishments. 2X All Pro, 1991 MVP and HOF. Lead in All Purpose scrimmage yards for 4 straight seasons. He had a terrific SB25 and was mvp worthy. But let's face it, he had terrible games in SB 26/27/28. I know its a team effort and everyone played a part. Whether you want to blame Kelly for not moving the offense and costly interceptions or the D not being able to produce stops. He was tough to watch. Super Bowl XXVI: 10 rushes for 13 yards, 1 touchdown, and 4 receptions for 27 yards. Super Bowl XXVII: 11 rushes for 19 yards, 1 touchdown, and 4 receptions for 10 yards. Super Bowl XXVIII: 16 rushes for 37 yards, 1 touchdown, and 7 receptions for 52 yards. I realize his regular season stats are impressive and elite level. From 1989 to 1993 he was a freaking machine. Emmitt has the rings and awards and Barry godlike numbers in a short time. And remember, Thurman was a 2nd Ballot HOF'er. He was great, but nobody should be upset if he's considered 3rd amongst the bunch. That is a solid point. 👍

Without going any further I'll say 2020, but Ican see 2024 being there as well.

Nothing makes a vet pick up his game like a youngling nipping at his heels.👍 I keep watching TJ Sanders' college highlights and really like what I'm seeing. 🤤 Dline is going to super deep this year to the point I feel there won't be much of a drop off when rotation starts.

I think Coleman will improve, but not sure if his actual numbers will reflect it due to all the new targets and their distribution. Surprisingly, I also think Shakir will improve with another year of trust and chemistry with Josh. I expect him to just break 1k this season. Regression is a tough one. Many say Daquan, but to me in order to regress you have to be a major starter and I feel his snap count will be seriously reduced if not getting cut outright. Gotta think it'll be Milano. I think he'll be critical in a playoff push if healthy, but being older and injury prone could hurt. I also think this will also be a year Williams takes another step. Dark horse regression candidate? I'm going with Bernard.

Mike "Full Of" Mularky...

Agree. Their offense is a bunch one read trigger throws like Miami does with Tua. Nix is a lot more elusive though which allows him to improvise and tuck and run if his first option isn't there. Bills O Line is imo much more formidable both in run and pass blocking.

Gotta say early off season when he made his demands known (15 mil per) I thought it was way too much. But now considering the RB position is sort of in a Renaissance period, I feel he maybe very close to his expectations. He's a more physical runner than most give him credit for and it appears he's taken care of his fumble and drop issues. If he can become a better blocker he'd be a complete back. He wants 15 and Beane is probably thinking 11. So call 4yr. 13 per 52 mil/ 40 guaranteed

I think I know why many TEs didn't show up. 🤢🤢🤢 https://www.nfl.com/news/taylor-swift-has-surprise-performance-at-tight-end-university-in-tennessee

I'd say he's between 5-10.

Why? Telling the truth? He wasn't an elite talent. How many AP'S or PB's Stevie have? Zero. He has 8 pro seasons with 4764 yds, a little over 3k in 3 straight with the Bills. Like Fred Jackson, he was a really good player that was fun to watch during the drought years. He was a very slippery cover. Why so serious?

The topic was/is "best release" off the LOS. In no way am I trying to 💩 on Fitz or make Stevie better than what he was. No one will argue Marshall, Evans and to a lesser degree Parker were better receivers. Just saying Stevie's release and improv route running was next level and if he had Josh (theoretically) would have put up better stats.

Reverse?
