I think the chance is pretty much 45%. Allen may not - and probably shouldn't - come back this season. I think Andersen is just collecting a retirement check.

30 years after his first carry as a Bill? Goofy! Cookie Gilchrist wore #34 and made the Bills a REAL team in the AFL. Come on - -

Thirty years after his 1st game as a Bill they are retiring his number???? Way to late and a way to get media coverage.

You've tried to be the center of attention on this and other Boards for Years - and Years. I stupid comment like this just proves you have nothing important to say. Still in Mom's basement??

would we be better off if he did?? I think not. This season's team has less talent and a few scrub team wins wouldn't prove a thing.

The local sports reporters here in Buffalo are all BUSH LEAGUE! The local sports report during the newscasts in down to 3 minutes maximum. You and this Board know much more about the game. Benini is a coffee go for at that station. He didn't even know what a B Gap or who played it for the Bills was when asked!!

Please name one aspect of the Bills roster that is ABOVE the overall average talent level in the NFL. We are so below that level in every area of play that it's more than sad. With all the cap money that is available in 2019 ($97 mil)the Bills can't correct this mess. Nobody wants to come to Buffalo without a fully guaranteed contract. Why would a veteran offensive lineman, LB, or experienced LB want to come here? We'll have to over-pay and that has been a problem. The "process" nonsense can't overcome the obvious. Buffalo is NOT a player friendly city. Nothing to do for young, black players. It's true - believe it or not.

These are my picks for overpay vs. performance: -Julian Stanford, LB @$1.5 mil with a $1.65 dead cap hit. The Bills are his 4th team in a 6 year NFL career. He has a total of 49 tackles in those 6 years. WHO IS HE?? -Patrick DiMarco, FB @ $2,050,00 with a $3 mil dead cap hit. In his 7 year NFL career he has rushed for -2 (minus 2) yards in 3 carries. He has 45 receptions for an average of 6.4 / year. That much for a blocking back? Are there more on your list???

Anderson last completed a pass in the NFL on 9-24-17. He was not in any team’s camp this summer. From 2011 through 2017 he was with the Panthers and threw 168 total passes for those 7 years. That means 24 total passes per season. His last TD pass was in 2016. He’s getting $760,000 this year for the Bills. A J McCarron is getting $2.1 mil in Dead Cap money from the Bills. Are we really expecting him to start an NFL game for the Bills in 2018? He’s basically been in retirement for the past 7 years! I think it’s pretty crazy. ** I posted this before but another Moderator said it should be merged with another Anderson thread?? I don't see any other Anderson thread but yours. ** Thank you for keeping this great board going!

If Josh can’t play I’d rather see Peterman give it his best. I don't think winning many more games is possible.

The Bills official website stated (per Chris Brown) - - "Josh Allen played well in the game, completing 10 of 17 passes for 84 yards. " He stunk! No feel for the game, inaccurate throws, jumpy in the pocket, no quick release of the ball and certainly unable to lead the offense down the field.

He just looks like he gets scared sometimes to throw the ball. He isn't showing the very quick release to be a very good QB in the NFL.

You are assuming facts not in evidence Wow - - look at what you wrote!!!

Thank you for the wise& thoughtful comment.

Agreed!

Without Incognito the Bills OL has no push and no nastiness. Dawkins has regressed without Richie next door and Groy, who replaced Wood last season due to injury, can't even start anymore. All over about $3.5 mil in yearly cash earnings for a 3 time All-Pro who started all 49 games in that time period for the Bills. He was a physical & emotional leader. No wonder Richie has had some freak-out sessions after his forced retirement! Crazy for the Bills and him!

I hate to say this but I think McDermott has some real stiffs on the coaching staff. As HC he may have to take over a lot of other aspects of the overall game!

Great comments - so agree with this sad situation!

And - to make it all worse - Patrick Mahomes has a photographic memory and remembers every play in his career!!!
