  1. Soooooooo..... on the 'depth chart', we see Baylon Spector ahead of Klein?Matakevich, and indeed wonder "are the Bills gonna move on from Klein?" Then Bernard goes down, and Klein steps on up with cameos from Spector. I think that testifies to the weight that should be given to said depth chart at this juncture.
  2. In fairness that may have had more to do with either 1) Vlad Ducasse being "coach's pet" to Juan Castillo in terms of specific technique 2) Ducasse having compromising pictures of Castillo Or both. But it's noteworthy that Teller started the following season as a backup guard in Cleveland, and didn't start until Week 8 so (inconceivable, I know) it may be that in 2018 and 2019 he just needed development still, and was not All That and a Bag of Chips as the narrative "he went to Cleveland and became an instant all-pro" would suggest Anyway, to your point: it's not uncommon for an OLman who becomes great, to take some time to become a starter.
  3. Whatever one thinks of the Bills choice to draft him in the 3rd last season, you hate to hear it. Hope it's not serious.
  4. I devoutly hope you are mistaken Barkley's Big Outing against the Jets was 6 seasons ago - and is, coincidentally, the last time he started a game. The reason to think it can't happen again is that he had an iffy arm to start with, and is nowalmost 33 instead of 28. As for your question - Oh My! I was This many days old when I learned that not only is Blaine Gabbert still in the league, he's now the backup in Kansas City. Though they have 4 QB on the roster, so I guess they're having a contest over there. So do the Bengals, for that matter, with Trevor Siemian as the apparent backup? It's been 6 years since he went 5-5 in Denver, and he's started 6 games (all L) since then. I'm beginning to think You Have a Point here, but I'll go with Marcus Mariota on the Eagles. He was 5-8 on a bad Falcons team last season and threw for 170 ypg with 15 TD and 9 INT, so I'm going to give him reasonable odds of winning a game or more for the Iggles, on the grounds that on a 7-10 team he managed 5.
  5. Dude, No. You "clog up the thread" in public about how "Unfortunately, the original tweet [by Cybulski] really lacks any substantial context" (multiple responses by you about one single tweet you object to), now I'm only supposed to address you in DM so I don't "clog up the daily thread" after one response? Nuts to that. Again, check yourself. The guy has been a public servant during training camp. Dis on him in public, get taken up in public. That Is All.
  6. I keep forgetting that it's now 3 PS games instead of 4
  7. Ruggs was offered a plea bargain allegedly because the DA feared he would win in court. I certainly agree with you completely. Get behind the wheel while drunk and drive, just like taking a gun and randomly shooting it along a residential street. There may not be a specific intent to harm a specific individual, but every adult should realize there's a high probability of causing serious harm to SOMEONE. Same with driving that fast on a public street. There used to be an attitude to excuse actions when someone was drunk "he didn't mean it, he was drunk". That's changed, but not far enough.
  8. I wasn't going to respond, but you're going on about this like the energizer bunny Maybe check yourself a minute? You read all sorts of stuff into the tweet without yourself considering the context (when in practice it was tweeted) then when your interpretation is shown incorrect, come up with "really lacks any substantial content"? If it's so lacking, why don't you either go there yourself and do better at reporting, or else just skip over his tweets and posts which quote them? I go with this guy:
  9. At least going into the first preseason game, Yes. I think Hyde would say as he has before "I'm not the fastest guy, but if you look at my GPS I've still got some gas in the tank"
  10. At the point where it was tweeted I don't see how it could mean "no longer working with WR", as they aren't far enough into practice to have completed the 2s and 3s. I think it means he was the only one back taking kicks. And here we see Isabella is working with the WR, running routes. Wish he said who it was against. Now this is a sentence I did not expect to read:
  11. Maybe. But if he's going to be our new KR, who at WR is he gonna bump? Remember on the WR depth chart, he's currently listed as 4th team - behind Sherfield/Shorter, Ateman/Keeshaun Johnson
  12. Remember Ateman is the vet journeyman WR who, with Keeshawn Johnson, is on the depth chart behind Shorter but ahead of Shavers, Isabella, Patman etc. - according to the Depth Chart "Built In Buffalo" tweeted as put out by the Bills.
  13. Now what does this mean? On the depth chart the Bills put out, he's #3 KR behind Harty and Shakir
  14. Does anyone have a picture of the Dawson Knox Fisher Price Little People? Pics or it didn't happen.
  15. Maybe he is considered to have caught it but then fumbled
  16. Apparently there was a problem with the blood alcohol evidence in Ruggs case, and the DA was afraid the defense would win a motion to suppress the evidence. I'm all for "probable cause" but this sounds sketchy AF So they didn't perform a field sobriety test because Ruggs needed to be transported to a hospital for treatment and LEO rightly didn't want to interfere with that, but then the judge wasn't informed that Ruggs had bloodshot eyes, smelled of alcohol, or had been drinking prior to the crash - so the lack of interfering with hospital transport by insisting on a field sobriety test would then be used against the DA to suppress legitimate properly collected and handled blood evidence. Makes me queasy to consider. I think a guy driving into a young woman's car at 156 mph so that she burns to death should be considered probable cause to test for alcohol and drugs.
  17. If you want to hear from M L-J how about this:
  18. Pfffff is, as Pffff does! In fairness, I think they're still without Terron Armstead, so it would be like our OL without Dawkins.
  19. https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/38162272/ex-raiders-wr-henry-ruggs-iii-sentenced-3-10-years-fatal-dui Pretty sure Ms Tintor's family don't think 3 years is nearly enough punishment for burning her alive. Ruggs got what his attorneys asked for: I'm sure he does, what with being cut from the team and losing his career and all. But he can't.
  20. Well, it has happened that Beane has moved a player McDermott wanted to keep at least for the season, and they have admitted it. ( I don't think Beane would try to keep a player McDermott wanted to cut though). Beane has discussed McDermott not always agreeing with the moves that he made but after discussion, maybe not agreeing but understanding why he made the move he did. I believe Marcell Dareus was one of the examples used. I had a little look to see if I could find the interview and couldn't.
  21. Two words: Siran Neal Stalwart on special teams for years Now Lewis is listed ahead of him at NCB and along with Hamlin as the 4th safety I don't want to watch Cam Lewis in run coverage near the LOS A lot of people have trauma from watching him in pass coverage last year He has reportedly been having a great camp, but..... Is it possible the Bills keep Lewis and release Neal? It's possible but wow, that would represent a change for them. Neal is signed through 2024 and carries $1M dead cap if cut
