NI Bills Fan

2 key guys potentially missing for the Chiefs: https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/nfl/chiefs-injury-updates-following-week-5-vs-raiders/ar-BB19V5vm

Thanks for the answers to my query above guys. 👍👍

Apologies if this has been asked/mentioned earlier in the thread, I had a look and couldn't see it... Whilst the Titans Covid listed personnel havent been able to participate in team activities, have they been able to participate in virtual sessions with coaching staff to discuss gameplan/tactics etc. for the Bills game? Thanks.

Any chance he is Mahomes' personal S&C coach? Or is that just wishful thinking?!

The Silence of the Rams

Go Bills Really looking forward to this one... a good test of where we are.

Best first touchdown catch ever? Probably. Congrats Gabe Davis. Now for some D

The garden must be rosy, because i currently have no issues with any of the guys in the poll! However... I'll be watching Bass like a hawk over the next few weeks.

Got chills there ... and havent even watched the video yet! Viva los BILLS!

I would agree with that. We all noted Josh's lack of experience (compared with Darnold/Mayfield etc.) coming out of the draft but could it actually become an advantage over time rather than a disadvantage in that he entered the NFL in no doubt that he needed to devote himself to improving as much as he can on all facets of his game. Whereas some of the other guys potentially thought their skill levels were at a level that they didn't fully embrace that improvement mindset like Josh has. just a theory.

According to Thad Brown, Josh had a bit of an up and down day with the camera and at times failed to keep Oliver in shot.

Thanks Yolo ... if you have the time would you mind just making some cool stuff up and posting it anyway!! A few sacks for Oliver and laser accurate bombs from Allen! Seriously though ... thanks for all your updates over the past couple of weeks and going forward. As someone who doesnt use Facebook/Twitter I really appreciate being kept up to date through this forum.

Thanks Beef ... I was indeed a Bills fan before Wade arrived... have been since I was about 11 (1990 or so) ...so went through the ecstasy and agony of the 4 superbowls, which nearly destroyed me as a youth. I had no fellow bills fans to turn to either as most of my mates thought I was mad watching NFL over the English football league (soccer). Which is why I love this board!

Cheers OP. As a UK resident I take great interest in Wade and his development, so happy for any snippets. One thing I do take from the article (and I'm maybe way off on this) ... is that Moss has potentially gained a better understanding of the playbook than Singletary had by this time last year... or why would Singletary not have been able to help bring along Wade's development to the same degree in the rookie room last year? Or maybe Moss is just a better communicator or closer to Wade than Motor was. Or maybe the season should just start now so we can stop over analysing everything!!

How has Epenesa looked according to Joe B and Matt Fairburn? I havent heard any news regarding him elsewhere as yet. Thanks in advance.

Without wanting to start a new thread for this (this one seems the most relevant currently)...can someone please post some insight from the Eric Washington article on buffalonews (behind paywall). The headline I saw was that the DL would 'take sacks to the next level in 2020'. If anyone can shed light on his quotes that would be appreciated. I was intrigued as to what he had to say. Thanks in advance.

Hard not to love this guy... his answer on learning from Gore was spot on and 'you can tell Josh has been in the lab' ! ... just start the season now please.

Sorry in advance if this is posted in one of the other Allen threads.... In this article (linked below) Allen talks about how a conversation with Tony Romo on throwing mechanics has really helped him so far this offseason. Which is great, but all I can think of when I read this is ... What on earth is he gaining from all this time spent with Jordan Palmer?! This sounds like basic enough stuff from Romo which he probably got from him in 15 minutes... I've never heard him talk about such a significant stride when he talks about the Palmer camps. Would he be better served spending his off seasons elsewhere? Maybe getting exposure to a few different coaches or veteran quarterbacks?

He's saying all the right things anyway... like an earlier poster mentioned, it's taken me a while to warm to Daboll, but i'm coming around, plus the rest of the staff and the team seem to really like and respect him. Yolo - thanks as ever for collating all of this, it's greatly appreciated.

Never been to a Bills game unfortunatley (I live in Northern Ireland) it's a dream of mine to go someday, and i joke to my wife regulalry that we will retire to Buffalo, or somewhere close, when the kids flee the nest etc. Well it started as a joke, i think she's developing some interest now so i am going to stick at it! I made it to the just outside the stadium during a summer holiday in the early 90s with my parents when i was about 13, which i'll never forget - didn't see anything or anyone, as it was the offseason, but just to be in the vicinity as a kid, I was in awe. I'll get there someday for the real thing, that's gauranteed, and I can't wait. Go Bills!!

I'd say that's quite common, i'm nearly sure Zack Moss referred to Beane as coach on their call.

I would agree with most of the earlier posters that say we're better than last season's group and add that the new DLine coach Washington should also be a positive addition that will hopefully boost the position group.

Worth taking a risk on I say... he's got big play potential and cant be any less productive than Yeldon.

I think I'll give it another off season before concluding they've done a poor job. The offence was terrible 2 seasons ago and was never going to become above average in one off season. It did show some improvment last year due to some smart additions in FA and acquiring singletary in the draft was a good move for now and the future. This off season needs to focus on bringing in high quality at some key positions on the offence, not just numbers, I'll defer judgement until the start of next season.

I'm assuming this is speed tracked in a game situation rather than them coming to training and asking them to do a timed sprint, if so the top speed measurement depends a great deal on game context, i.e. has Dawson Knox been in a situation where he has caught the ball in space and has had the chance to open up and sprint for more yards? I cant remember too many instances of this for Knox. He was usually wrapped up quickly or fighting (very effectively at times) against tacklers for more yards. Just my take.
