An off-season deep dive:
Alex Smith underwent a total of 17 surgeries on his right leg after suffering a devastating compound fracture during a game in 2018. The injury occurred during a sack, and it was compounded by a severe infection called necrotizing fasciitis. The surgeries were necessary to save his leg and life, and they included debridements to remove infected tissue and limb salvage procedures
Following the initial surgery, Smith developed necrotizing fasciitis, also known as flesh-eating bacteria.
Smith spent months in the hospital and had to use a wheelchair, walker, and crutches before finally being able to walk again.
Despite the severity of the injury and the long recovery process, Smith returned to the NFL in 2020 and even started a game for the Washington Football Team.
inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame as part of the 2024 class last December. The honor comes three years after earning his spot in Utah's Hall of Fame.
When NFL legend Alex Smith and his wife, Elizabeth, learned their daughter Sloane had brain cancer, they felt like their world was crashing down. “You think you have been through a lot, but when it's one of your kids, nothing prepares you for a moment like that,” the former NFL quarterback said.

Look at this picture and tell me what you learned.
I see...so lets move the kicker to the LOS with the both lines digging-in and have a tush-push

so 50 on-sides kicks last season with 3 recovered by the kicking team for 6 percent success rate.
Given that...I quite dont understand why the rule still requires these to be announced before the play..with the element of surprise being key and thus removed
Can't be safety issue as the teams are lined-up close to each other and players are not running all that fast into each other ?

Then onto how debate about how many QBs the Browns will keep and cut...and then which ones pass thru waivers... then get picked-up on a PS squad... that should get us thru Labor Day...

Someone has to make it cool again, that's all.
I mean, there have been 8 others to wear 40 since JD Hill, including Von Miller most recently. 32 is much more interesting, though. Only a couple of worn that since OJ (Senorise Perry and Nicholas Morrow). They only started giving out that number in recent years.
As a fan of 70s culture...I give props to JD over Von for being the 40 king..he blocked well enough during the 2003 yard season of 73 that OJ gave him an engraved bracelet..
it said.
Thanks we did it..and on the other side... I didnt do it
-
as well interesting to note that the two punters (Camarda and Robbins) are wearing numbers 32 (OJ) and 40 (JD Hill) respectively...per Joe B and his peerless puntapalooza pointers.

I don't think he's a bad player.
I remember just before the draft last year someone did a "Which player do you want the Bills to avoid" thread. Coleman was mine.
My response was something along the lines as "Not that he's not going to be ok, he may be. He's just not the type WR the Bills need".
I stand by that opinion almost a year later. He showed a few flashes. Less then I hoped ...but a few. Hoping he develops a bit more this year. I think he can earn a useful role. Still wish we went in another direction last year, however.
my reaction to the Bills drafting Josh back in the day was almost the same...I thought he had too many flaws...accuracy, played against inferior competition, etc

And shifty. And the difference about his shiftiness is he did it at full speed while moving down the field, like changing directions didn't slow him down at all. I'm always amazed when watching his highlights.
add track meet speed...nobody ever ran OJ down once he broke free which was hard to do considering the D always keyed on him....

That’s Pat Summerall narrating. I forget the other guy but he and Summerall were both former players. IIRC the other guy played for the Eagles.
Tom Brookshier me thinks - this game was the first regular season game at Rich Stadium - Earl Edwards was an absolute beast that day constant pressure amongst the best I have ever seen from a Bills player not named Bruce Smith...sold-out 72 hours in advance (stupid NFL blackout rule) so we could all watch from home...may have been the first ever Bills home game televised in the 716 ???

Good dude. Shame he never won a championship. Wish him health and happiness in retirement. Hope the concussions don't have any lingering impact.
totally agree..glad he could walk away from this on his terms...and no more concussions !
he was high character man, 6-6 sort of playing out of position, as he played tackle at Mizzou, he did a great job of pulling to the edge to lead the off-tackle plays and sweeps...was a bit over-powered due to his lean and long frame by bull tackles as center was not his true calling...
best to Mitch in his new chapter of life...a true Buffalo Bill
