Thoughts on the four roster cuts to get to 80 after watching our 2nd preseason game?

Impressive! What a roster. During the drought the team on the field for that drive would have been our starters!

Howard’s blocking is much greater than who he is competing against.

Outside of some sloppy tackling by the starting D, kickoff coverage and a few penalties positive half by the Bills.

One thing noticeable is the blocking of Howard in the running game. I believe that is going to give him the edge for TE2.

If the Bills running game can be a threat without Josh running this offense will be even more lethal!

OJ Howard with a nice block to free him up.

Could be. Also maybe he is struggling with his pass blocking. Assuming DS and Moss are solid, Cook’s role will targeted this year with a bigger role as the season progresses.

Two weeks in a row!

Offense looking good. Nice to see Keenum bounce back. BTW….as a long time Bills fan I absolutely love our uniforms.

Shaq baby!!!!!

Josh can have a seat now and watch from here on out.

Josh Allen fastball for a TD!!!!!

Thus far poor tackling, DL getting controlled and D again gives up a first down after opponent facing 2nd and 20. Not a good showing thus far.

What is Taiwan Jones injury? For a guy that only contributes to ST, is his roster spot a lock?

I get it. When the product is good fans are willing to pay more. I live in Atlanta and was looking to go to a game with my wife and daughter but that’s a very expensive weekend. Have contemplated seeing them play in Miami or attending a December game. As a fan I’d rather have this problem than when the team was horrible and tickets were dirt cheap!!!!!!

Excited for the game today even if it’s preseason. Numerous things to watch. >Starting OL playing together in a game for the first time. >Running game with Singletary, Moss and Cook >TE competition with Knox out. Will OJ Howard make some plays >Does Crowder or Austin make some plays or does Hodgins continue his strong play >Haack vs PG. Sure he can punt it a mile but how does he do with directional punting and hitting balls when placement is needed over distance. >Looking for continued consistency with Elam and Benford. Great problem to have if both are performing well. >Debut of starting DL. Do they get to the QB? Do they impose their will in stopping the run and getting to the QB. >Need to see a better game from Keenum Lastly and MOST IMPORTANTLY just stay healthy!!!!!! Let’s go Buffalo!

Seattle should finish last in their division which will probably result in Pete getting dismissed at the end of the year.

Ravens edge out Cinncy if they stay healthy. Pittsburgh will be competitive with a strong D and playmakers on offense. Depends on their QB play but I’m sure they will surprise a few teams. It will be interesting to see what becomes of the Browns this year, culture, team dynamics, leadership, etc, with the Watson situation. I use to root for Cleveland when not playing the Bills, but I have to imagine many fans like me now detest them. Feel like they sold out and knew exactly what Watson did but looked the other way.

I would expect the offensive starters will be focused on the run game and a lot of quick passes. I would also expect to see the 2nd tier WR’s sprinkled in to see how they perform with Josh. Great opportunity for OJ Howard with Knox most likely not playing.

We play KC yet again on the road! WTF

For everyone debating Elam vs Benford, it’s a great probably to have! Kudos to both of them as they will be contributors going forward. Same with the WR group. With the quality of this roster, I would have to wager GM’s will be calling Beane about who is available for a trade or draft pick. I do wonder with the play of Duke and Blackshear if Taiwan Jones roster spot is in trouble? Duke’s speed is obvious. Also wonder where Crowder and Tavon Austin stand. Next week will be important for both of them. Lots of positives from this game. Three final thoughts, Matt Ryan looked bad, BillsMafia showed up in force and for all the great work the D did, can we stop giving up big chunks of yards after they make a sack or force the offense into long down distance. For example all too often, it’s 2nd/3rd and 20 and then they give up 15 yards playing soft D. Lets go Buffalo!

Hopefully it’s only minor. Please let the Bills stay healthy this year!

A lot of bad football being played right now. And the refs aren’t any better.

IMO, that is a prime example of a ref looking to throw a flag. Hopefully the bar is raised for what a taunting penalty is in regular season.
