Nice drive and who had Ray Davis making an xtra point on their bingo card!

Easy 7 play 80 yard TD drive for the NYG. Bills give up 3rd and long conversion. Poor tackling along with minimal DL impact.

NYG DL > BUF DL thus far.

Giants picking on Tre as he’s given up multiple catches with playing in soft coverage. NYG just taking the easy 5 yards every time.

Safety is a major concern to me as thus far Bishop and Rapp are both injury prone.

I don’t know how anyone could not be concerned with the injuries we have at WR, LB, S and K. Also is there a bug going around as a number of players have been out with illness?

More than concerning that Bishop and Samuel can’t stay healthy.

Great news considering what was first being reported! IMO, let’s get him fully healthy before jumping back in. It’s a long season so no need to rush him back.

Damn….losing Hairston really hurts as that is now two first round picks (Elam) that haven’t been able to make an immediate impact. Theoretically, Hairston won’t be fully ready until mid season of next year with no guarantee that his speed will stay the same. Realistically, we’re looking at 2027 for Hairston to be fully recovered. Praying for a speedy recovery and hopeful Strong catches lightning in a bottle. Ugh!!!!!!!

Day 6 of training camp and we have 10+ guys sitting out with either an injury or illness. Not good considering we just started wearing pads.

Lots of new faces that we need contributions from this year. These are just a few things I’m watching for: * How quickly can Max adjust * Does Cole step up at S * Mitch or White at QB2 *Can Bosa stay healthy? If so, his impact would be huge! * NEED to see improvement from Coleman and Kincaid *What does a healthy Milano look like this season * Will Palmer, Moore and Samuel be core contributors *DL, DL, DL…. Hopefully this year it becomes a consistent strength *Who’s our punter and who wins KR and PR * Lastly, what adjustments has the coaching staff made.

Curious to see if they explore moving Hawes to more of a FB role allowing them to have Kincaid, Knox and Davidson at TE? Will be an added dimension to the offense if he works out! Fingers crossed!

Hopefully with the 43rd pick signing, Sanders signs tomorrow.

Having a torn labrum last year didn’t help. Now that’s he’s healthy, expecting Taron to bounce back.

And yet radio silence on KC’s Rasheed Rice by the NFL!

Well said. IMO, Andy Reid is constantly adding new wrinkles throughout the season. I feel like the NFL is far too conservative, but I’d like to to see the Bills incorporate the use of more laterals when applicable to keep the defense on their toes. Imagine trying to stop Josh in the open field and right as you are getting ready to tackle him he pitches it. Incorporate a little rugby lateral

Other than being a dome, the Titans new stadium doesn’t seem very grandiose IMO https://www.tennesseetitans.com/new-stadium/

*Taron torn labrum *Kincaid torn PCL *Carter and Smoot both needed wrist surgery. *Josh had fractured finger(s) *Coleman and Cooper wrist injuries *Samuel had turf toe *Rapp and Benford concussions Curious what other injuries we had last season?

Offensively, I hope Brady incorporates a RB or TE screen and they can execute them. On 3rd/4th and short, keep the defense on their toes and not always run a QB sneak/tush push to the left of the OL!

It’s a slow time of the year for the NFL, so I thought I throw out the following topic. With the start of our home opener against the Ravens less than 100 days away, what offensive or defensive philosophy or scheme changes are you hoping to see from the Bills for the upcoming season?

Forgot how the Bills could have really gone up 20-7 late in the 2nd qtr but two bad plays, they let KC right back into it. After a big punt return to KC’s 40 yard line, Josh threw a brutal pass to Samuel on 2nd and 9 that would have gone for a big gain. Then after a Josh’s scramble, they elected to go for it on 4th and 3. Josh threw a bad interception as Knox and him weren’t on the same page. Rather than going up 20-7, KC scored a TD to go up 14-13. As we all know, the Bills would win but it was a stark reminder, how the Bills have to get cleaner in their execution if they want to win it all. Ultimately, the lack of execution is what cost them getting to the SB last year. KC simply has executed better against us when it’s mattered in the playoffs.

I’d be stunned if Tre White or Dane Jackson accept a PS role. They’d rather be cut IMO.

In an ideal scenario, our DL and Secondary BOTH take a huge leap forward this season. That would go a long way to breaking the wall down!

Today’s OTA’s reminded me how much our roster has changed since last season. With nine draft picks, combined with 8 key FA signings, I’m hopeful we’ve gotten stronger and better. Bosa, Moore, Tre White and Dane Jackson would be a huge bonus if they contribute this season. All come with questions though! IMO, Forrest, Palmer, Hoecht and Ogunjobi must contribute if the Bills are gonna take the next step. Regarding the rookies, if the Bills can get at minimum 4 to 5 players that make the active roster, they are in really good shape going forward. Couple that with a significant step forward from Coleman, Bishop and Carter while having a healthy Milano and you can see why the Bills are a major contender. It will be interesting to see how the coaching staff evolves/adjusts with their offensive and defensive philosophy. I hope the staff makes some 4th and short adjustments besides always sneaking to the left side and defensively stunt more than just a 4 man bull rush while playing 10 yards off the receivers. Besides our core, who are your must contribute immediately players from the draft and FA signings?

Disappointing yes, but I’ll go with the glass half full approach. It does allow him a wider window to continue fully recovering. Missing OTA’s isn’t the end of the world. Hoping he’s ready to go when it truly matters.
