There were good and bad things today. Overall If say this is the worst game Buffalo has played this season. There were so many “close” moments today that could have changed the game: 1 - Knox dropping a gift wrapped reception at the 10 2 - Allen overthrowing Roberts big for an easy TD Basically for 3 quarters, Fitz and Miami made the big plays and Allen and the offense did not. Concerns for me are Allen. He should have carved the secondary apart and while he didn’t have a terrible game, I feel it could have been stronger. Pass rush was terrible. This is a big concern for me. Jerry Hughes seems to get pressures but can’t get QB’s down That is a pretty sweet helmet for sure.

Basically it’s a pick em, which I think is fair

Based on the usage of Kroft today, I don’t think he’s leaving the starting lineup anytime soon

I thought the holding call was crap. But yes, he is averaging one damming drop in the redzone every week and that is not good. You can argue that if he makes the easy catch today, it’s a different game

He was Tommy Sweeney today - nearly invisible That was Knox. 0 targets for Kroft today

When you are contending for a playoff spot, why on earth would you trade your #2 CB who has played well this year? I wouldn’t be against trading Marlowe or Stanford, but I think that the Bills are pleased with having them as depth and on ST. They already have multiple picks in rounds 5-7, is sacrificing depth really worth another 6th round draft pick? I agree on Stanford....but he has been a reliable backup and does play on special teams. You probably couldn’t get more than a 6th round pick. Do you think it’s worth making a move now?

Their best? I don’t think so. He might be 4th best when Ford is in the lineup. From what I’ve seen it goes: 1. Morse 2. Dawkins 3. Feliciano 4. Nyseke 5. Spain 6. Ford

I’ll say he gets his 1st sack but has many other pressures

They also should get a 4th round comp pick for him, which means you could see the Bills package number of picks in rounds 4-6 to move up to the 2nd or 3rd round.

I do think that Wallace and Foster are exclusive rights FA’s, though I believe Phillips is a true FA

PAAAAAAAASSSSSSS on this deal

I was checking around to see what cap space the Bills have next year and beyond and I think that things are definitely trending in the right direction. Here’s what’s out there from overthecap.com 2020 Projected Salary Cap $84 Million (4th Highest) 2020 draft picks: 1- Own pick 2- Own pick 3- Own pick 4- Own pick 5- Own pick 5- From Cleveland Browns (Teller trade) 6- Own pick 6- From Browns (Teller trade) 6- From New England Patriots via Baltimore Ravens (Bodine trade) 2019 Free Agents: LB Lorenzo Alexander DT Jordan Phillips DE Shaq Lawson OL Quentin Spain RB Frank Gore CB Kevin Johnson S Dean Marlowe S Kurt Coleman WR Isaiah McKenzie WR Robert Foster LB Julian Sanford RB Seniorise Perry CB Levi Wallace 2020 Free Agents: CB Tre’Davious White* LB Matt Milano OL Dion Dawkins DL Trent Murphy S Jordan Poyer OT Ty Nsheke OG Jon Feliciano FB Patrick DiMarco WR Andre Roberts QB Matt Barkley RB TJ Yeldon Based on these numbers, I would guess that a portion of this years cap space will be spent resigning their own FA’s - I’m thinking they make Matt Milano and Dion Dawkins a top priority. You have to think they find money to resign Tre too. If they want to keep Lawson, they can. They just have to factor in a comp pick if he does walk away. Also I think it shows the team needs to get a lot younger on the offensive and defensive lines. Any other thoughts after seeing this info?

Yeah that is really messed up

He said he wants to go into broadcasting when he retires. I think he has done some work with local TV affiliates in Arizona

This means nothing though, because every evaluation I’ve read about Miami has been horrible.

The actually get a lot of prank calls and they have for years. It got to the point where I kept waiting for Schoop to dump out of a call. They have a pretty lengthy delay which is which you never really hear the words that get them dumped.

It isn’t a completion against the spread. This is a straight up pick-em competitions which makes the Wickersham pick even dinners. But I guess he wants to be the guy on Twitter that screen caps his picks and says “see I told you so!”

I feel like overall WGR features less callers than they used to 10 or 20 years ago. It could be because there are other immediate ways to interact with hosts/show like social media. Also, some of the callers are pretty brutal. I don’t think that “callers” are as big of a part of talk radio as they had been in the past.

If I’m Buffalo, I would trade for Drake and cut Yeldon. I think he is underutilized and would be a star if used effectively

He actually played decent in the Bills defense when he had to fill in

My thoughts exactly. Doubt the Bills take a look, though I can see him as a good reserve LB

No but someone who calls themselves “prissy they cat” did vote. A grown man calling himself “prissythecat?” ?‍♂️?‍♂️

There actually are many fans who feel the same way. I don’t think it will be easy but I think the Bills are in a great position. Nothing is given though

I still think that people might be sleeping on Cleveland. They are just 2-4 and aside front the Bills and Nee England, they have a relatively easy schedule. Of course, they will need to overcome a really bad offensive line, but just like Allen, you have to think the turnovers for Mayfield will slow down at some point. It will be really hard but they could push for 10-6 or 9-7 and be in contention for the division. This is true. The Bills are in a really good position. Perhaps they will be their own worst enemy
