I don’t think the issue is as much on Josh as it is around his supporting cast. What were the commonalities in 3 out of 4 Bills losses offensively? - Bills offensive line was absolutely overwhelmed - Bills had no threat of a running game. - Josh unraveled when things were going poorly. I think #3 is a factor of the other two. In 2 of the 4 games the Bills defensive line was just manhandled and they couldn’t get the opposing offense off the field. The issues is physicality on offense and defense.

John Murphy?

One thing McDermott rarely does is throw players under the bus. He will say things like “we need more from ____” but he won’t say anything to really single anyone out in a negative way.

Ex Pat Friend: The Bills have a cancer on the team” You: Who is it? Ex Pat Friend: I don’t know enough about the team. But trust me, there’s a cancer. 😂😂

He has yet to be activated and likely won’t be with only 1 day of practice. We are maybe looking at a return against NE I’m sure COVID will do wonders for his “medical condition.” Much less harmful than a vaccine millions that have been safe for millions of Americans

I don’t at all get where Lindsey fits on this roster. The Bills won’t carry him as a 5th RB. Do you get rid of 3rd round picks like Moss or Singletary…no way. He’s not faster than Breida. There’s no way the Bills move Lindsey to the active roster unless they want to stash him on the PS

Can you summarize the rest of the article?

I can agree with that. I don’t hope that they lose by any means. But I also disagree with Star not getting vaccinated especially given last year and would echo the sentiments made by Beane, McDermott and the Pegulas earlier this season

Where is the medical evidence that vaccinations have a negative effect for people with heart conditions? If anything they research would support vaccinations for those with heart issues. If it was too dangerous for him to play with the threat of COVID last year with his condition, why would he decide to play with the threat still being there and not take the best prevention against it? And the Bills have every right to lose because of that…

A heart condition is not a legit reason to not get vaccinated. If anything the effects of COVID such as Myocarditis threatens people with heart issues worse. That is probably the reason why Star sat out last year…makes sense. His decision not to get vaccinated was a personal one. Not a medical one.

I remember he did a season on ESPN’s Sunday Countdown as an in-studio analyst. Probably around 98 or so? I thought he was pretty decent

Not just that… how about the damage that COVID can do to a heart. Probably concerning to a human his size - especially if that was the reason why he sat last year Phillips has been solid though not spectacular throughout the year. The difference is he’ll be going against one of the NFL’s best offensive lines. I’m hoping he has the game of his career

Yeah exactly… it sounds like an excuse. I remember this summer when Star had to miss time as a close contact because he wasn’t vaccinated at the time. McDermott didn’t sound happy and I don’t blame him.

The rumor is that he had a heart condition and couldn’t get the vaccine. I don’t know if I buy it. Either way, some of the decisions by members of the Bills could derail their season

What is the legal situation with Brit?

I will say concerned and annoyed that so many Bills are getting COVID

Supposedly his IG profile liked a lot of right-wing/anti-vax culture so many are speculating that he is not

I don’t that’s possible unless it was a false positive. It seems like COVID lasts for around 7-10 days. If he was negative Sunday, contracted COVID Tuesday, and tested positive on Wednesday, that leaves just Thursday and Friday. He would need to test negative on Saturday morning and then Sunday morning. I don’t think 2 days is enough time…and he’s probably not feeling great either. This is if he IS vaccinated which we don’t know

Yeah you’re right. It’s not a given of course, I just have nightmares from the game in Jacksonville and knowing the type of players that Paye and Buckner are, it doesn’t make me feel so good about the OL.

Im almost positive that happens. I’ll actually feel a little better if Bates gets the start. They do have a little time to prepare

I don’t feel so great about it, but we’ll have to wait and see. They did win 3 games with Brown not starting at RT

Did you watch Doyle’s rep from the Jets game. He got destroyed easily by Shaq Lawson who was quiet the rest of the game.
