We aren't missing out on an impact player because of three million of dead cap. That's where void years come in.

Good football IQ and awareness there. Bishop could be a very good player for a very long time.

How do people still not realize we do this dance every year? We start the season with Allen reigning it in a bit. First month to two months of the season, not so many designed runs. Let Allen avoid taking a lot of shots early in the season. Then around the bye, the gloves come off and Allen goes wild with running, taking more chances. It's a long season and reducing Allen's hits early in the season is a calculated move by the Bills.

Nope. Latu and Gabe are who I expect. But you never really know. I'd say Gabe is almost a lock, but maybe someone else gets it over Latu and they roll with Hawes, Gilliam and Alec Anderson seeing increased snaps in the TE role.

If they elevate then this week they still have to announce it. An elevation only counts for that one week. They don't stay elevated.

I have been looking around and haven't found anything yet. I imagine it will be Gabe and Latu again, but it's not official. Wins are wins in the NFL, so I don't say this to take anything away from them. But they caught the Ravens in the middle of mass injury throughout the defense and no Lamar. And San Fran with Mac Jones. That helps. This "#1 defense" gave up 29 points to Duvall Barbie and the Jags just 11 days ago.

He may get a look...but I think he takes himself out of the running for a lot of teams. IIRC, he's from the Philadelphia area. He wanted to go back to be closer to family. He's getting up there in age and is at a point where spending time with family can supercede coaching aspirations. It wouldn't shock me if he has a very small list of teams he would even consider coaching for.

I was kinda hoping they might bring him back this week. With Samuel and Hardman out and Shakir missing practice all week with the birth of his baby (congratulations to him by the way) and missing Kincaid....it may have been the perfect storm to have him see some snaps in the slot this week.

Yes. Difference is our run game controls the clock and game tempo. Used to wear down defenses. Their run game pops off constant long runs. Give the ball back to our offense.

Next up: Mike Sando creates a "Burn Book"

Looks like the information trickle has begun.

False. The TEAM needs to move one game at a time. As fans it makes zero difference what we do. Heck, I'm already on to the Wild Card Round.

Their defense is worse than ours. I don't mind a 44-41 shootout win.

It's not new, but it's gotten aggressively worse over the last few seasons. Buffalo brings in player that in theory can stop the pass. Can't remember when the last good 2 down run thumping LBer played here. Brandon Spikes maybe?

I heard it was @teef. And not so much asked, more like showed up at the Hallmark offices wearing nothing but a strategically place mistletoe and refusing to leave til the script was written.

I strongly disagree on your first sentence. The prevalent rumor is that he was set to play last weekend until he missed a meeting Friday. I actually think that's a true one. I do agree that he just hurts the progressions. But if he plays I think he will see more than 10 snaps, some coming in relief of Shakir who is banged up as well.

So, it's almost certain that Coleman will be active. If this team is all all serious about seeing if Coleman can produce this is the week for it. I think they should keep Davis, Palmer and Shavers in a nice rotation on the outside and Coleman and Shakir taking reps from the slot. Houston has 2 good outside CBs. Let's see Coleman do some work in the slot and see if he's salvageable in the least

I think it would be hysterical for a team like Tennessee or Vegas to claim him.

I would absolutely love this version of Josh to be real.

The season can't start soon enough...

Dude, you're a Saints fan. When your team is closer to the #1 overall pick than the playoffs....maybe sit this one out Are you possibly related to a certain Packer fan?

I've been a big Bosa supporter since we signed him. He brings a lot to the team. I just am not sure I would wanna sink a high dollar into him and bet on him staying mostly healthy a second straight season. Seems very risky. Now, I also admit I'm not sure how his contract works. I believe I say somewhere he carries a $7M dead cap next season due to void years. I'm not sure if we sign him if that gets absorbed or not? But if we started by saving a big dead cap hit I could be on board.

You can look back on my post history and see I have been a pretty big Shavers supporter since last off season. But please...pump the breaks. He's had 1 good (not even great) game. Let's not get overly excited. Every week somewhere around the league a guy has a great game out of nowhere. I like Shavers. I think he CAN be a solid player. But let's temper expectations. Look what happens to Gabe. From "hey this guy can make some plays" to "This guy could be an all-pro" after one amazing game to..."get this loser off the team"...mostly because of over expectations.
