Comeback from sucking?

Lawyer Milloy played 8 more seasons after they moved on from him. They didn't move on because he was old and washed up.

Why isn't Hyde available?

I'm guessing they will rotate a decent amount at both MLB and CB2 depending on the down and distance and defensive scheme. Might see Elam more when man coverage is called, and Benford and Jackson in zone.

Ok. I literally could not think of anything besides offensive tackle.

You are a certified optimist compared to him.

Maybe I'm an idiot, but what does that refer to?

Shorter?

Von Miller is a superstar. He just got hurt last year, but when he played he was everything we wanted him to be. Let's see if he can get back to that this year. Tre White has been an elite corner. Matt Milano is an All Pro linebacker. Micah Hyde and Jordan Poyer have been elite safeties. Three of the four of these defensive players were injured last year. I think we have the high end talent. They just almost all got hurt last year. But I agree with the premise. A few years ago I brought up the same thing. You need at least one superstar player on each side of the ball, and one has to be the QB. Preferably two on each side. I think we pretty much have that, but last year was ridiculous with the injuries, including to Josh Allen, who suffered the elbow injury and played through it. I think you are wrong about that. I would bet money that defensive coordinators spend time accounting for him in their game plan.

The Steelers have sucked recently.

Yeah, I draft him every year if I can. There is a wide gulf between him and any other TE, production wise.

This is ridiculous and untrue. Tre White was an elite player. You can doubt that he'll return to form if you want, but there is no doubt that he has been a true difference maker at his position. It seems you just don't understand what you are watching if you think otherwise.

He is 6-3, but one of those losses he barely played, but I don't remember why (in 2019) (Edit: Bills played their backups, so Matt Barkley played almost the entire game, so Allen is really 6-2.)

Aaron Rodgers has a record of 2-2 against the Bills in his career, with a passer rating of 75.4, with 5 TD's and 4 INT's. Guess he doesn't match up well against the Bills.

That's a pretty unnecessarily brutal call out, to be honest. Not sure why he felt the need to say that. Only Bills fans are thinking of that. Leslie Frazier has an excellent track record as a DC. He ran his course in Buffalo, but there are plenty of teams that would improve with him as their DC.

I heard the Jets have the best defense since the 85 Bears, so we better just give up now...

People do NOT have to be able to do something in order to teach it. Tons of coaches have never played much football, and yet they teach complex schemes and plays to players. Offensive line coaches don't have to be former offensive linemen. Linebackers coaches do not have to be former linebackers. Knowledge of what you are teaching is required, but it doesn't have to be first hand knowledge. Does it potentially help? Yes. But it is not required. There are so many examples outside of football too.

They surveyed 1,200 fans. That means if they equally divided it among all 32 teams (which who knows if they did or not?), it is only about 37 fans per team.

I've lost patience with a lot of the podcasts out there, including Cover 1, actually. Maybe it will be better when the season starts. I always liked their post game shows, so I'm looking forward to those again. Locked On Bills is great. I listen every day. Joe Marino is in a class of his own right now, and I don't think it is even close. One Bills Live is hit and miss, but they often have good guests on. They get WAY more hate than they should. I listen a couple times a week, but not if Maddy Glabb is on. I used to like Bruce Nolan's stuff, but he got stale for me. A lot of the Buffalo Rumblings stuff has gotten stale for me as well, but again, maybe they'll have better content when the season starts.

Players didn't make as much money back then, but neither did coaches...

Love seeing disfunction in KC. Hopefully it is a big distraction all season.

For sure. They'll drop the new guy and add him back to the practice squad.

Well, I hope he cools it a bit on the drinking. No good comes from getting smashed all the time. Do you think skinny arms Tom Brady has ever lifted weights in his life? Josh is a QB. You don't want big, bulky arms as a QB. You want your arms lean. QB has never been a position that lifting weights is important for.

Seriously. Tugging jerseys and mugging the receiver three steps before the ball gets there. I hope the officials start calling it this year, but I have a feeling it will be even worse.

I like how you got negative reactions from supposed Bills fans. What a surly bunch.
