    Now that Allen has some kind of developing ankle issue, we have no answer if he goes down for any amount of time. Mitch is not a viable backup. We should have drafted a 2nd or 3rd round QB to have groomed for difficult moments. People will say this is not a legitimate worry, but Allen relies on movement in the pocket and out of the pocket. He lives on his ankles. Ankles already being taped up and with a full work load every single week will just add to that stress. 

    I mean look at how much it bothered him at the end of practice. Threw like 50 interceptions. 

    When has QB2 not been a problem if he has to play? This goes for every team, ever season since the beginning of football, stop with the manufactured drama, JFC this nonsense topic has already been beaten to death repeatedly during the last sixty years for the team from Buffalo…,  nuthin but luv…

    Great now Allen is hurt. Ankle issues don’t magically go away, they linger especially with the heavy demands of a regular season. Mitch isn’t the answer and we didn’t do anything to address QB2. 

    We will all assume you are imparting sarcasm into this thread…,

    It's known that he was dealing with an elbow injury that affected his mechanics for the last half of the season. Presumably he's fully healthy now and back to his usual throwing motion.

    It was said here on this board that Josh said he was working on clearing up his throwing motion during the offseason, ya know, when he wasn’t doing the little things…, 🤣

    Umm…

    Not sure how you know, but…

    Blood doesn’t flow out of the leg via an artery. 
    Blood flows out of any extremity via a vein, not artery. 

    Vein sorry not a doctor, but I play one on tv…,

    Ok I can't resist!  How do you know?

    lol 👍, years ago I had blood clots in my left leg, one of which broke free and went through my heart and landed in my right lung, ( yup, sucked big time) I take anticoagulants daily and wear a compression stocking on my left calf to aid blood flow out of my left leg, my left calf hasn’t seen the light of day in decades, it’s the whitest white boy skin on the planet earth lol🤣

    Is there anyone on here that knows why Milano has to wear the black leg wrap on his right leg that he broke And what it actually does

    Likely a compression stocking, aids with blood flow up out of the leg via the femoral artery, ask me how I know,

    Other than injuries (which are reported), fights (reported) and notable absences (reported) … what could we possibly care about when it comes to training camp/practice?

     

    I’m not sure where all the concern and outrage is coming from. 

    We live in a time of an entitled, pearl clutching, much ado about virtually nothing society, peopled by folk who think they matter, its more than kinda pathetic when one looks at it even remotely in an objective fashion…, god we humans suck sometimes, 😂

    "Everyone eats" Isn't a very inspiring motto for this offense. "Yes, our priority is to get even the most sluggish, least talented player involved so they don't, you know, feel left out and sad." What's next, a no-bullying policy? Everyone gets a participation trophy? A buddy program? 

     

    Pent up Freudian frustrations much… calm yourself fellow fan, the best always eat more, but as an offense you don’t want the “D” to get comfortable knowing that yet again the Bills will  force another pass to Diggs type of thing, got to be unpredictable to be successful.

    Josh Allen Leadership/.  In the past, Allen was always in the shadows of Diggs,  Morse, Miller, Poyer and Hyde - the senior statesman of the team.   Now it is truly his team and he is showing his leadership on the field.  Go Bills !

    As a leader he needs to “when appropriate “ get on his boys to up their games, of course we all hope that won’t be necessary,  I think Josh will inherently know how to do that in a measured fashion. 

     

    GO BILLS!!!

    It's not just a mental hurdle, though that was undoubtedly there.

     

    Lay people who haven't gone through it don't realize what an immense insult to the overall physiology heart stoppage followed by CPR/time on a ventilator really is.  Hamlin's ribs were undoubtedly damaged.  Cracked ribs and cartilage take months to heal. 

    His lungs had the equivalent of severe, life-threatening pneumonia.  In this antibiotic age, we've lost touch with how long it used to take people who lived to recover from severe pneumonia - it took months, and that's months to just return to normal physical activity, not to restore peak athletic ability.

    And he spent months last off season where he was severely limited physically in what he could do leading to de-conditioning of muscle.

     

    We "get it" mostly that an athlete returning from an ACL usually needs until his 2nd season post-injury to return to whatever his best form was. 

     

    Same for Hamlin.
     

    Totally agree, I was having some health issues back in 2017,  turns out I was diagnosed with congestive heart failure, my ejection fraction was 15, spent two weeks in cardiac ICU and another ten days in a step down unit, by the time I got home walking up five steps to get into the house was exhausting, and required a nap afterwards, it took a very long time to be able to do “ normal stuff “  before this happened I was an avid cyclist, for the better part of thirty years, I’m near normal now,  go to the gym lift some weights etc, I can’t imagine how hard it was for Damar to get back to playing pro football, damned amazing frankly,  more power to him!

    Looked over the wrong shoulder but still able to adjust for the catch.

    Having Shakir, Kincaid and Coleman being very reliable targets for intermediate type routes should make the offense almost unstoppable. Maybe not as explosive as in years past, but we'll be churning out first downs.

    Yup, and by doing so we will keep the opposing offenses off the field as much as is practical, 🤞

    It's day 1 and the pads have not come on, but man...

     

    So far it looks like a lot of the Best Case Scenario predictions regarding Brady's scheme, Kincaid taking a step up and Coleman being ready at his moment.

     

    This could be an amazing Red Zone offense. A Oline that seems mostly in sync, big bodies in Coleman, Kincaid and Knox, and needing to defend both Allen and Cook/Davis against the run really seems like it could stress defenses when the field is compressed.

    🤞

    Oh, we all love how they finished the season. They have different players now. Joe Brady was elite as an OC when he had Burrow, Chase and Jefferson. He struggled with talent in Carolina. He did a good job last year with a different group. Which guy is he? Is he the guy from Carolina or the guy from LSU? 
     

    As an aside, I’m a Brady fan. I was in Louisiana at that time. You can search this message board, 5 years ago, before 99% of the people here knew who he was, and see me advocating for him as OC (and even HC). I believe in Joe Brady. I don’t believe in the WRs. 

    And that is the main question, can Brady scheme and call the right plays at the right time , and can the players execute, it’s all part of the anticipation of the new season, we don’t all need to agree all the time, most folk here are pretty reasonable in their takes, and will concede to other good points made, some here get lost in the weeds their own opinions that they claim to be facts…,  oh well, humans…,
