Most guy dont tackle by pulling the jersey. You hit and wrap.

Exactly. It should be a player safety issue like so many other rules. I think instinctively players already dont grab guys hair or we would see it more. Just make it a rule.

It is obvious if someone tackles and hair gets in the way vs grabbing/yanking someone down by the hair. Thats like with facemasking - there is difference between grabbing by the facemask and the facemask touching you. The first year of the ban, only two penalties were called by referees for the horse-collar tackle. Owners voted 25–7 in 2006 to expand the rule to include tackles by the back of the jersey in addition to tackles by the shoulder pads.

I would cut my hair too and hope my players do the same. It is dumb as a offensive player to give them something to grab like that. But in the NFL they claim to want to protect players, obviously players like the long hair.

I think a horse collar also includes grabbing the jersey.

Is Peterman gone yet?

Not all NFL rules make sense but how is a horse collar tackle illegal but grabbing a guy by the hair is not? Face mask is illegal but grabbing by the hair is not? Makes no sense if the rule is out of concern for player safety.

If the Bills gave me the back up job: I would give it my all. I would watch hours of film. I would do whatever the coaches say. I would be a good guy in the locker room. I would do everything that NP does and maybe more. That does not make me an NFL QB.

Landry was here last week. I would sign him asap. NP has to go. If Allen is out for the year. Sign Kaep to keep the team relevant for the rest of the season.

No. There are and were so many other options. Its on them for not making the right choice.

The thing abut Tyrod is somehow he keeps games close or its just random. Go look at his gamelog and most of his games are close. Actually most of his blowouts came with McD.

This. He was really not that good in preseason. Watch the games and dont just look at the numbers. He was throwing easy passes with base defenses etc. The fans may not be expected to know better but coaches should.

I think its stubbornness. McD has an ego and wants to be right. When he benched Tyrord last year he took a lot of slack. He is bent on proving people right and refuses to close the door on that. Its time to cut the cord and let him go.

Peterman is a late round draft pick that should not even be on an NFL roster.

Worst player to put on any uniform. It is scary how stubborn they are to admit they whiffed on him. Put him on the practice squad if you dont want to fully admit it. But to keep putting him out there is unfair to the other players, the fans and even to Nate.

I am starting to feel like the guys are keeping Peterman around because it makes Allen look better. Seriously, you throw Peterman out there and then Allen looks like a HOFer.

Def trying to be positive. He has not looked good. When people say "he made some nice throws" that is setting the bar way too low. Go watch any level of football and lots of guys make some good throws. It is obviously way to early to make a final judgement on the guy. But if your being honest he is way behind many rookie qb's that are forced to start early. He actually looks a bit like Kaep in his first year or tow with less athleticism.

Could he be worse than KB?

K Benjamin just looks done out there. Mentally and physically. He has no speed. He drops passes. He wants to go down immediately after a catch. I think its part physical. He has lost a step or more and cannot do what he used to. He also seems checked out mentally. Maybe he has the attitude "my QB's cant get the ball to me so why try". Remember this is the guy that said if not for Cam he would have put up better numbers. Do you cut the cord now?

I hope this all changes. But thus far: Allens best quality is his heart and toughness. But otherwise there is a lot to be desired. His passing skills to this point are inferior to EJ Manuel at this stage. That is the truth. EJ was also 2-2 after 4 games.

After we got rid of Darby...

Yes he looks lost at times. I can accept that. His presence when he is under pressure looked ok last week but was awful this week. I can handle that too. What I am most concerned with is the accuracy issues. He will still just flat out miss some throws. I am hopeful he gets better, but sometimes if that is the report on the guy it just is what it is.
