Who Do The Bills Sign At Cornerback?
Allen2D̶i̶g̶g̶s̶TBD replied to Allen2D̶i̶g̶g̶s̶TBD's topic in The Stadium Wall
CB and Interior O-line depth were the two areas I was concerned with before the season. I never expected to be in this position heading into week 3. -
With Dane Jackson out an unknown period of time, Benford with a broken hand, and Tre White still a few weeks from being eligible to play, it's clear that we need to make a signing at CB this week. We called up Ja'Marcus Ingram, who came into the game after Benford was injured, but he looked lost in zone coverage (as he did in the preseason). It's likely too early in the season to persue a trade, so we will need to look to free agents. Here are a few of our options: Kevin King: King played well for the Packers when healthy, but he has had a number of injuries over his career. He has stated that he will take the 2022 season off in order to heal up, but if he is feeling ready to play, he could be convinced to play for a contender if the price is right. Kevin King is 6'3" and played mostly zone coverage in the Packers' scheme. Joe Haden: Haden retired from the NFL last week, but he may still be persuaded to play. He stated that he had interest in playing for the Bills and Von Miller was publicly lobbying for us to sign him. He may have lost a step at age 33, but he may have one more year left in him. Richard Sherman: This suggestion will likely get some backlash considering his drunk driving incident and his poor play with the Buccaneers. Regarding his play in 2021, I think that may have been due to the fact that he was put into the starting line-up 3 days after being signed without fully learning the defense or having practice time with the team. We're in desperate need at cornerback and Sherman desperately wants to end his career on a positive note and win another championship. He has a long track record of success in zone coverage and he's worth a look if there's mutual interest. There are a lot of other free agent cornerbacks, so who do you want to bring in?

I was very encouraged by how well our young guys played in the secondary. They gave up a couple big plays, but held Tua in check and made Tyreek Hill irrelevant.

Anyone know anything about out injuries?
Allen2D̶i̶g̶g̶s̶TBD replied to Billever76's topic in The Stadium Wall
The one positive aspect is the fact that we play mainly zone coverage which means that pressing receivers is less important in our scheme. Even if it's broken, he may be able to get a club cast on his hand and continue playing relatively soon. -
I've seen Belichick smash plenty of Microsoft tablets so if anything it's an encouraging sign

I had the same issue so I assumed there was a local blackout. I had to use the NFL+ app instead.

Oliver, Philips, Hyde all out against the Dolphins.
Allen2D̶i̶g̶g̶s̶TBD replied to Spiderweb's topic in The Stadium Wall
We played them in 2020 with our backups when the Dolphins needed to win to make the playoffs, and we won by 30 points. We are to them what the Patriots have been to us for the last 20 years. Beating an injury-ravaged Bills team would be their biggest accomplishment of the last decade. -
All-22 Grades for Bills/Titans (The Athletic)
Allen2D̶i̶g̶g̶s̶TBD replied to HappyDays's topic in The Stadium Wall
They've definitely had tough matchups. I think it would be a much bigger problem if not for Josh's elite mobility. The one thing I've liked from our interior offensive line so far under Kromer is that we're pulling our guards more on both run and pass plays and the D-line looks unsure which direction the play is going. -
I predict that if Trubisky struggles again, we will see Kenny Pickett's NFL debut tonight.

It's a shame Daboll snatched Nick McCloud from our practice squad considering the coaches were cross-training him at CB and Safety. Our secondary is in rough shape and the D-line will need to dominate this game.

All-22 Grades for Bills/Titans (The Athletic)
Allen2D̶i̶g̶g̶s̶TBD replied to HappyDays's topic in The Stadium Wall
I'm surprised at how poorly Saffold has played so far. Right now it seems like Ike Boettger could challenge him for his spot once he's healthy. -
AJ Epenesa Is really playing well
Allen2D̶i̶g̶g̶s̶TBD replied to 78thealltimegreat's topic in The Stadium Wall
Rousseau, Epenesa, and Basham have all taken a big leap forward this season. Von's presence is a absolutely a major factor -
Does any part of you miss the losing?
Allen2D̶i̶g̶g̶s̶TBD replied to Einstein's topic in The Stadium Wall
To be 100% honest, I am less excited after wins because I expect to win. During the drought, I would be ecstatic to beat a halfway decent team by a field goal. -
They keep lining up in a shotgun formation on short yardage for some reason. Just line up in an I formation with Gilliam and Singletary and either give it to Devin or have Josh sneak. They're just overthinking it.
-
McDermott should just list 20 players as questionable like Belichick does
-
I think Basham gets more snaps at DT and Brandin Bryant gets called up from the practice squad. Shaq Lawson is active to replace Boogie's snaps at DE.
-
This is incredibly stupid. Just have a 6PM and 9PM game and avoid splitting the viewers.

Legends of the Game Monday Night!
Allen2D̶i̶g̶g̶s̶TBD replied to Ed_Formerly_of_Roch's topic in The Stadium Wall
It just said that they would be in attendance for the game, not that they are considered legends. Jim Kelly, Bruce Smith, Andre Reed, and Darryl Talley are also attending. -
I could see the Bills bringing back Daryl Williams if we have an injury at guard before Ike Boettger is healthy.

Von Miller played just 35 snaps vs the Rams
Allen2D̶i̶g̶g̶s̶TBD replied to Inigo Montoya's topic in The Stadium Wall
I noticed he was on the bench in the 4th quarter once the game was in hand. It's smart to limit his snaps if we want him to be fresh for 20 games -
Only 9 total penalties - Good Work Crew!
Allen2D̶i̶g̶g̶s̶TBD replied to Big Blitz's topic in The Stadium Wall
I was pleasantly surprised to see that our rookie cb's avoided being penalized. Kupp found soft spots in the zone, but overall they held up very well in coverage (the pass rush certainly helped them out)
