Tyler "Dirty Red" Matakevich is the Lead Captain on Special Teams IMO.

Really hope that Star is well enough to start Sunday. My hope is he lines up between RG Trai Turner and the rookie center and does his best to neutralize Turner. If he can do that he can let the rest of the DL handle the day.

It's funny that Josh Allen brings that out with certain media personalities. Imagine if Allen hadn't signed an extension yet. What would the "national media" be saying? You heard a lot of talk about the other two after Josh signed and it's been pretty much crickets ever since. Going into a 1st round QBs 5th year option it's pretty much a given nowadays that an extension gets done before the first snap of the 5th year contract year. Are the Browns and Ravens wanting to see more before signing an extension? Does Baker and Lamar think they can be better off not signing and head to FA? Will those 2 teams need to go the "Franchise Tag" route with these QBs? I bet these kind of articles would be going on about Josh if he didn't sign yet. I love how a lot of the media still hates eating crow about Allen.

Well the season is starting in 2 more days and I find it interesting that Mayfield and Jackson have not signed extensions. Will that make them PROgress or REgress?

Tyrod has made $54M for 54 passing TDs. Good money if you can get the work!

I agree with everyone that said that game! I was stationed at Homestead AFB south of Miami when that game broke "The Streak" and watched it on Miami TV. The Monday Miami Herald had the color version of that picture on the front page. The headline read "It's Over". I am so pissed I lost that newspaper after a number of years.

Of course the game will tell what will happen with their new OL. Their Center LG and LT have 4 NFL starts under their belts. Imagine this board if the Bills were going into the season like that! In comparison the Bills 3 at those positions have 171 NFL starts plus they been playing together. Interesting note on Turner (their 1st year playing for them Pro Bowl Guard) at RG played for Carolina while McDermott, Star, Addison, Butler and DL Coach Washington all were there so one would assume they got some tendencies on him. If the Bills new DL can't take advantage of this situation Sunday at home I will not know what to think.

I'm not sure. I'm so confused.

Stupid simulator just wants clicks!

It seems to me from what I seen during camp and the GB game is that Allen has worked on his hot reads and getting the ball out of his hands quickly if needed. Teams wanting to blitz him may find this quite unnerving. Also seemed to work on the swing pass and screens. If he improves on these aspects he will be a DC headache. He also seems to have learned to throw the ball down at the feet of a RB/TE if the OL fails badly thus avoiding those "sugar high" plays. Seems like a lot of the things he needed to work on got worked on this offseason. I guess I'm one of the few who thinks his passes per game will increase.

Well if the Pittsburgh official depth chart is correct their starting OL is as follows: https://www.steelers.com/team/depth-chart/ LT Dan Moore - Rookie 4th Round Pick LG Kevin Dotson - 1 Year Pro (4 Games Started for PIT 2020) C Kendrick Green - Rookie 3rd Round Pick RG Trai Turner - 7 Year Pro (6 years with Panthers 5 time Probowl, 1st year with PIT, played for LAC last year) RT Chukwuma Okorafor - 3 Year Pro all with PIT 30 Game Starter FWIW @Stank_Nasty

I will be a TT fan on October 10th when they play the Pats*.

So we're sort of on the "Watt Watch" again. Excellent.

This thread made me get off mu a$$ and order a ROUSSEAU jersey nameplate to replace the name on my drunken purchase at the stadium back a number of years ago! Go Greg! Go Bills!

Along with whoever their dime CB will be covering. I'm loving how Allen is perfecting the quick pass when needed. That will lessen their pass rush ability.

That really was LT during the 80's. He was the "poster child" for the 3-4 OLB role which was extremely popular in that era. LT was instrumental in making NY Giants football relevant again after decades of mediocrity. Perfected the strip sack before the NFL kept "forced fumble" stats. I HATED HIM SO MUCH. LOL.

Opening game of the season is here! I am excited to say the least. I want to see how Allen and the Bills WRs fare against a weakened Steeler secondary. I think it's the key to the game. Will not be surprised to see 4 and 5 WR sets. I can't see Pittsburgh having the personnel to stop that. Go Bills!

So you don't come out and say it you just imply it. Got it. Next, don't group me with others. I don't predict scores or wins and losses. I'm a forever fan of the Bills that watches every game and hopes for a win. The best part of sports in my book is to actually watch the games and see what unfolds.

OK. I just wanted you to give me the "guarantee".

That was last year. I take it from your comment then you a guaranteeing a Pats* win against the Chargers this year?

LOL exactly. What's your point?

......and they also lost to the Broncos at home.

I agree. If you add how many pass catching TEs also excel at blocking that elite number goes down even more. I will concede that an elite TE can create mismatches in defenses but the same could be said with having good receivers all in a 5 WR set.

LOL. When I cut the DirecTV cord I specifically pick Sling Blue over Orange so I wouldn't be exposed to ESPN anymore. My life is better for it.
