I'm surprised by the Anderson talk. I haven't seen much from him or heard people making much of a case for him.

I know a lot of players don't get scooped up, but I think Shorter would be one of them. Cut him and he's gone. Too many traits.

Here is the correct 53-man roster with 16 practice squad selections included in parentheses. 😉 No gymnastics with Von Miller; he makes this roster. 25 offense, 25 defense 8 offense, 8 defense for practice squad Allen, Allen* (Barkley) Cook, Harris, Murray, Gilliam (Mims) Kincaid, Knox, Morris (Sternberger) Diggs, Davis, Harty, Sherfield, Shakir, Isabella, Shorter (Shavers, Johnson) Dawkins, Van Demark McGovern, Edwards Morse, Bates Torrence Brown, Quessenberry* (Gouraige, Boettger, Broeker) Bass, Martin, Ferguson Miller, Rousseau, Floyd, Epenesa, Basham Oliver, Jones, Ford, Phillips, Settle (Lawson, Ankou, Jonathan) Milano, Bernard, Williams, Klein, Matakevich (Spector) White, Jackson, Benford, Elam Johnson, Neal (Ingram, Austin) Poyer, Hyde, Rapp, Hamlin (Lewis, Marlowe) Yep, Dodson was cut. *Bills should look for a better backup QB and better backup RT after cuts. No external MLB solution on the horizon this year.

This is awesome! This guy is literally my next-door (okay, two doors down) neighbor!

Pointed out that the Bills have major issues that will likely prevent them from winning the Super Bowl this year, same as every other year prior since 1966.

This is more likely than not to be true.

We still haven't won a Super Bowl. Most "overreactions" end up pointing to the actual truth -- we aren't good enough. People can scoff and mock, but that's been the reality and all indications are that it will remain the reality, so those who "overreact" are doing so reasonably.

The Bills have bad tackle play, which reduces Josh Allen's ability to be the best version of Josh Allen, thusly killing our chances. The Bills don't have an MLB.

Play on the field is all that matters. Nothing else should be taken into consideration when talking about his future on the team.

I'm not the one living in a fantasy world. This place is Insecure Homer Central. Many posters just really have a hard time accepting even the thought or possibility that the Bills might have made a mistake and things might not be perfect. Folks who post such thoughts are ridiculed, ganged up on, and condescended to. Discussion is much more reasonable on X, typically. To no one's chagrin, I'm about ready to swear this place off for good. Came back after staying away for a while and it's insufferable.

I'm not going to rehash all of this -- my opinion is my opinion and we'll see if the Bills' approach bites them -- but the underlined quote is meaningless. Players will always say they always wanted to be at the place they end up signing. You also conveniently left this out: “I didn’t have no conversation with Von. Oh no,” David told Eisen. “If he would have reached out, it would have been a different conversation.”

I chuckled when I saw your original post because it's absurd to require people to take time to write a detailed essay to justify an opinion that is widely shared. I could absolutely do it, but I'm not going to take the time. Your approach is a common one from fans who think the organization can do no wrong. Just off the top of my head real quick: Bills could've paid Edmunds instead of Oliver and still come away with a good DT group of Jones, Ford, Settle, and Phillips; Bills could've drafted Drew Sanders (as I was hoping they would at the pick) instead of O'Cyrus Torrence and still had good guard depth with McGovern, Bates, Edwards, and Boettger; Bills could've signed Lavonte David if they had tried (and, by the way, his 2023 cap hit would easily fit under the Bills' salary cap even now). Not to mention all the other FA LBs they watched sign elsewhere for cheap. These are just a few thoughts. They should've prioritized having a starter at MLB. Do they sacrifice a bit of depth at one position if they had done the sign-Edmunds-instead or draft-Sanders-instead options? Sure, but that's kind of the point: you still have quality starters everywhere, including MLB.

The consequence of being in a state of concern. That's a worry that could have been avoided.

Dude, they did literally nothing. Stop being condescending. They brought in zero new players at the MLB spot. That is... literally nothing.

Suspect this is McDermott's design in an effort to get him ready for what awaits him the evening of 9/11.

We're talking about the MLB position. No new faces were brought in at that position. Williams and Howard aren't MLBs Going to be extremely tough with the defensive depth

Would be a big mistake

It's funny because people are always like sO yOu ThInK yOu KnOw MoRe ThAn ThE tEaM and in some cases, like this one, fans and media did seem to know better.

Why are you getting eyeroll reactions from this? You're 100% correct. They chose to do literally nothing at the position and are now suffering the consequences.

I hope you mean tackle depth because it would be inexplicable for you to be concerned about the interior. The Bills have one of the deepest, best interior groups in the NFL with three quality starters and two starting-caliber backups.

A lot of talk among Bills fans about Justin Shorter's lack of production yesterday. Here's the reality: Shorter was in the game for only 10 pass attempts during two series with Kyle Allen in the first half only. He never played with Barkley. Allen only looked to his side of the field on two of those plays.

I am in Baltimore a lot and the downtown area is much more happnin' than Buffalo. I've been in Buffalo a dozen or more times over the past 10 years, with several extended stays -- including a honeymoon during which several Buffalonians who know what's up made fun of us for honeymooning in Buffalo.

I mean, I didn't mention New York, Chicago, DC, etc. because obviously they are more grand than Buffalo. I was making the point that even smaller cities have more to offer than Buffalo.

C'mon. All I speak is truth. There are virtually no active attractions in Buffalo, at least none that would inspire one to visit. It's embarrassing interacting with Buffalonians on this. Maybe I'm just used to other cities like Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Charlotte, Charleston, Nashville, Baltimore, etc., all of which are way more pleasant to visit and you can actually walk around their vibrant city centers. With pretty much any city you visit, especially one considered major like Buffalo, there's more to do than you can fit in. In Buffalo, it's like...thud. And it's embarrassing. People say things like, "Oh, so that's...all there is?" and it happens all the time.
