Da webster guy

You're forgetting Crowder, he is a lock. Kumerow is too for special teams and way more experience than Hodge/Shakir. If you guys went to any of the last 5 camp sessions then you saw Crowder ball out. He's gonna be Mr 3rd down from the slot this year. Unless we keep 7 WR, Hodge goes to PS.

For the training camp sessions I saw, Crowder stood out. Caught everything, great separation and very fast upfield for good YAC. Gotta remember he was rehabbing for most of camp. The Colts drop was unfortunate but I think he will be an impact guy this year for us on 3rd downs.

I think Keenum could get picked up off the PS if we put him there, and Barkley won't. We want them both in the QB room so I'm guessing you will see Keenum on the 53 and Barkley PS. There are a lot of snaps in the preseason ahead of us, so that might change, but I doubt it.

My son unexpectedly came home, we are hoping to get a pair of tix to see training camp tmrw or thrs Aug 10th Will throw you a few bucks for em! thanks. Kevin Farrell 585-734-1255

BB is a really good DEFENSIVE coach and overall game coach, but I dont think he's a good leader, motivator, team builder or offensive coach. The word you hear a lot from ex players is 'unrelatable' which is a nice way of saying the dude's a weenie. Dimes are perfect throws, he put too much air under that ball. insane pick tho. knifed in between two speedy NFL guys while they were going full tilt and somehow barely touched either dude. An all time highlight and massive game changer/tone setter for that game.

There are many who strongly disagree with you, they feel that everyone should stand as a sign of respect to the flag. Kap used to sit on the bench for the anthem, then he switched to the kneeling which I think was a better move. I have interest in his tryout for the NFL because I felt the narrative that Kap was some elite player that got his career ended short because he chose to protest is simply not true. The majority of non-football fans believe the guy sacrificed his career for some greater good, when the reality is the guy was a backup QB on his way out of football. Then he took a huge check from Nike and they ran ads that said Believe in Something, Even if it Means Sacrificing Everything, and the lie got pushed even further. At that point, I felt there was no chance this guy would ever try to make another NFL roster because it will reveal that he's simply not very good, and he didn't really sacrifice ANYTHING. In fact, he likely made more money from the kneeling that he would have if he tried to stay in the league and hold a clipboard for a few more years. Nike should run a new Kaep ad that says Believe in Something, Especially if it Makes you Rich..... I really respect the guy for actually trying to play again, even though we all know what the result was going to be.

Well we definitely win that KC game that's for damn sure. Strange that after all the great work McD does as a HC, the guys ONE apparent weakness is game calling with everything on the line.

I like the Dinosaur Wango Tango wings over all else. They're slow cooked so you don't get the sinewy stuff from the fried wings, it's almost fall off the bone but the skin keeps in the meat. After a long smoke w dry rub they throw them on the grill and sauce em when you order. All the fat is rendered off during the slow cook and the wings are big and meaty. We have done blind taste tests with Dino wings and they win every time.

I feel like elite QB's generally move the ball regardless of who their receivers are, and having a top offense scoring 30+pts per game and 4 proven NFL receivers on the roster in Diggs, Gabe, Mckenzie and Crowder, that drafting a WR5 in the 1st round seems misguided. This is our superbowl run season, not drafting for depth. We need guys that can impact our games immediately, and that starts with being good enough to beat out the guy ahead of you on the depth chart in camp. I can't help but think the clearest path to having a rookie starter is CB. A physical, fast intelligent CB that can play zone and man, good in run support and proven against top level offenses in college. It's possible a RB could also have an instant impact as well but WR seems more like a Whaley move to me.

Bills coaches agree and gave the kid over 500 snaps this year which is what he needs again next year. After a few seasons and 1000 NFL snaps I'd say you pretty much know what you have at that point.

I don't think Chan Gailey was a bad coach at all. One of our best game callers for sure. He and Fitz, Stevie, they had some pretty good showings.

No kids yet but I can imagine once you have little ones that being a HC would suck for your wife n kids. Football is awesome and careers can be great but too much stress is pure evil and your window to be a parent is pretty small. He'd be the first one ever to be that young, get a ring and then bow out.

I remember him as the dude who went to like 7 superbowls. which is probably why the russians wanted him.....

This one is up to Star more than it is the team. If he busts his a$$ and shows up to camp in great shape and wins a roster spot in 6 months, you now have an experienced guy in the middle in your rotation for a very low cap hit. If he's mentally or physically done he either retires or it become obvious to the coaches this summer and he is released. Would only cost maybe a roster bonus, something minor.. I see no downside to letting him try out for the team again, unless the cap was so tight his $1.5M hit would be the difference between signing a free agent guy or not.

Wallace was technically covering him but he got a free release and Milano was way too deep and out of position to help. The best TE in the league basically untouched and wide open on the biggest play of the season. Both our All pro safeties so far deep they may as well have been on the bench.

Put simply, the Giants are a sinking ship. Daboll missed out on his dream job w the Chargers (Staley over Daboll will go down as a legendary whiff by that franchise) and the guy got an offer from a GM he knows for a HC job so he took it, but they are still going to suck. Jones has played 3 seasons in the league and he's done OK. Turnovers were his biggest challenge and he was 10 TD's on 7 picks before his injury which is WAY better than his 1st two years. Throws a decent deep ball too, but overall he's just a guy, and we know all too well how that one ends.

Josh Rosen rookie card. free with any purchase of a happy meal.

Well if there's one thing we know as Bills fans, it's really hard to find an elite QB even if you tank and have a high pick. There are some years college football doesn't produce a single franchise QB. It takes a long time and some luck to get one, but once you do then you're in the hunt every year. Not only did we a get a franchise guy, we have one of the most unique and fun to watch qb's to ever play the position. And he doesn't have that d*ckhead air about him like Rogers, Baker, Cutler etc. He's cool, loves Buffalo and we love him back. So we get 10 years of expecting to win our division, and one of these years we'll get a trophy with this kid. There's just no doubt in my mind. Too bad he wasn't covering Kelce or we'd be playing Sunday.

People that open a thread and post just to say "there are other threads on this" kill me. Just don't click on it then, nobody is forcing you. Sometimes existing threads get off base, they turn nasty or become a few guys back and forth defending their posts, a new thread on a massively important topic getting restarted a few times isn't going to hurt anything. Now, if someone starts another one Patrick Mahomes brother, THAT'S grounds for murder......

This is interesting. We know that the right call was a high short kick, we practice covering it and use this now and then. It will bring the clock to 8/9 seconds, maybe less. They aren't going to fair catch a kick that lands at the 5-10 yard line and if they do, we just gained 15-20 yards on them which is huge in that scenario. If McD had called for it, which he obviously should have, then we know from experience that Bass lines up differently in the pre-kick steps as the OP said. At this point the special teams coach and McD AND Bass should all be on the same page, and if there is any issue whatsoever it would have been a timeout from our sideline as they watched Bass take his 7-8 yard walk back. We have people on the sideline with headsets, people upstairs in the booth with headsets, everyone in the world is watching Bass line up his steps, there is no way we aren't going to notice he is lining up to kick out of the end zone, which he did. Bass did exactly as he was told. Just brutal game coaching and mishandling the entire sequence from the kick mistake to the way they had our safeties playing BEHIND the imaginary red field goal line, as if we were so scared of them getting a touchdown we had our best two Dbacks 40 yards deep. Kelce running wide open with no help for Levi, having Addison and Oliver NOT rush Mahomes and just stand there as spies (ridiculous). Cost us the season and maybe a title. I hope McD stands up soon and explains everything. We can handle honest mistakes, but don't go Tom Donahoe "we'll give the fans as much info as WE think they need" I love the guy as a head coach, he's learning slowly about game coaching, getting better but definitely not there yet. It's a hard thing to do even for the veteran coaches, we understand stuff like this happens, just don't lie about it.

disagree. a kickoff returner is going to take a knee at the 3-5 yard line? clock stops when they're tackled.

Things get a little more challenging capwise as Josh's salary hit kicks in, but we are really in good shape here as far as talent and potential. Some good trench play on both sides of the ball this past month, lets get a cb, mlb and edge in the draft. Gotta keep swinging for the fences, we will get a trophy one of these days.

Oline play is very encouraging. Is it mostly because of Bates? Either way we basically shut down Ingram and Chris Jones who are studs. If you forgot how good they are wait until they feast on Burrow with his crap line.

zero passes defensed. 44 throws and we didn't break up ONE. Once again, squib kick runs clock to 10 seconds. Kelce is held every play at the line, (just Kelce) draw defensive holding call if need be. Two plays, Game over.

Hughes and Addison have very good 1st steps and seemed to be pressuring well but just couldn't quite make enough difference in this game. I guess these guys would be gone next year but having them show up at camp and seeing how they play makes more sense than letting them walk. Same with Star. If they have a great offseason and show up in shape next summer you give them a chance to win a roster spot like anyone else. Meanwhile cb, edge and middle LB in the draft please.
