Not worried about Gore. He looked great last year and in preseason. He'll be just fine doing whatever he is asked to do.. and he will usually do it well. It's just one game
-
feel bad for the 3 raiders fans left in oakland
-
Hopefully he ends up having to give his whole paycheck to Oishei ?

Is it possible for both teams to lose? Yuck
-
There is probably one (crazy) scenario in which I would consider this:
The Bills look like contenders, Frank Gore is injured, Devin Singletary doesn't look the part, and the Bills (aside from the running back situation) are looking like contenders. Even then, I don't you should be giving up much in order to get him on the roster

Not surprised and glad McCoy is gone. He was going to be unhappy.. being in a multi RB timeshare.
It's not that he doesn't have it anymore, because I think he would still make an excellent 3rd down back/pass catcher. But for the price, you're getting a situational player at best, a distraction/ineffective player at worst

Thought he would make the team. He adds a different dimension to the WR core

I too think they are going to carry 7 WR's. Nice work Bandit.
With John Brown's injury history and sickle cell issues, I don't think carrying seven is too big of a stretch. It's pretty likely we don't end up getting a full 16 out of him

He's the type of player that if he develops, you are looking at real potential value. Yes, the chances of him developing into anything are small, but wouldn't you rather hold that spot on the PS for a year and see where things go?

We can finally get Right Josh!
Could he beat out Barkley? ?

I don't think he'll ever stop completely.
It's just part of that "hero ball" mentality that will always be there. And it's either going to make him great or terrible.
Let's just hope we see, at most, 1 or 2 a season.
The way I see it.. there are 2 possible end game strategies for Josh:
1) try to force him to become an efficient passer that takes less risks and runs less. i.e. a Ben Roethlisberger type
2) a player that runs and passes very aggressively. I'm not sure who would be the best comparison for this type of player. Maybe somewhere in between Mahomes and Cam Newton?
there are things he can do that no other QB can. if you actively try to coach it out of him, he might not be able to make use of his biggest advantage: his physical gifts. it's kind of a fine line to walk because you want to play to his strengths, but you don't want costly turnovers.
In case 1, you would want him coax him out of that sort of thing, whereas in case 2 you would want him to learn what he can get away with and what he can't (i.e. when to make that cross body throw that almost no one else in the league would even attempt) and maybe even help him develop these talents so that he is more efficient using them.
how the coaching staff proceeds with him is going to be interesting.

You think we're doing good.. until you realize that the Patriots have the highest rated offensive rookie (Jakobi Meyers), the 3rd highest offensive rookie (Jarret Stidham), the 8th highest offensive rookie (Hjalte Froholdt), and the 2nd highest rated defensive rookie (Chase Winovich).
Hopefully in the Pats case preseason play isn't an indicator of regular season success!

the legend of Peterman continues?

Barnwell says:
QuoteAllen was excellent as a scrambler, but he was far worse as a passer than predecessor Tyrod Taylor
I don't think I've ever read something from Barnwell that hasn't mentioned how the Bills shouldn't have let go of Tyrod
-
Hmm. Clearly better and assuming team is healthy?
I'd say:
Patriots
Chiefs
Rams
Chargers
Colts
Saints

Matthews played for three teams over his seven full seasons in the NFL, and had his best years in a two-year stretch with the Titans. He spent the back half of last season with the New York Jets, which it is probably safe to assume explains a lot of why he’s feeling so completely ***** and demoralized about the sport of football these days.

I think you are right. I think that this coaching staff values practice much more than it values performance in a vanilla offense in pre-season. That being said McKenzie is legit in the competition for the final roster spot at WR. Wade I don't think is in competition for anything. He gets a practice squad expemption for the year as part of the pathway programme and I expect the Bills to give him the chance to stick for the year as a result but the likelihood is he does that, has a year on the PS and then is released next year in cut downs.
Next year the running back situation will likely be more open, seeing as we will likely have no more Gore or McCoy. I think there might be room for a guy like Wade next year, if he's able to continue improving. Rugby guys have to play both offense and defense. Granted, he did play wing, which isn't exactly in the thick of things. But I would bet that he can tackle / play special teams and carve out a role similar to someone like Taiwan Jones. Plus the added upside of having that incredible burst out of the backfield if he actually gets in games. If he comes around and finds other ways to contribute, I'd be surprised if doesn't make the team next year.

I thought he a really nice grab....I think the issue is
McKenzie is making more plays
McCloud has PS eligibility
We should not waste PS spot on Duke and Sills....
McKenzie has never really had issues with making plays. He's really good.. as long as he's not fumbling the ball. I'm just worried that the fumble issue is going to pop up again at the most inopportune time. If the coaching staff believes he is over the issue, it shouldn't be a hard decision to make.

McCloud? You sure?
I remember hearing him mentioned for a drop that he should have caught. It looks like he was targeted a bunch of times too, but only came down with one catch. Those others could have been on the QB and not him
-
I missed about half of the game, but the parts I did hear on the radio said that:
Played well:
Darryl Johnson
Devin Singletary
Barkley
McKenzie
Didn't help themselves:
Zay Jones
Yeldon
Tyree Jackson
McCloud

All of the rookies. In particular:
Oliver

Not noticing Ford would be nice too (unless it's for an amazing block)!

I think we'll be okay as long as Eddy O doesn't get any ideas about trying on the warmup jackets Thursday in front of McDermott

Did anyone key in on Oliver? I didn't really notice him much
