  1. The Germany crowd is WAY louder than London. Im impressed.
  2. Agreed. though thankfully it is a win/win either either.
  3. Dolphins next 5 games are against teams with a losing or .500 record.
  4. Typically, if that injury makes him questionable for the game, the team has to disclose that.
  5. Benford has no injury designation.
  6. Of course! The sign just went up last week: And of course the halloween setup (sister nailed this).
  7. Simon made a point the other day that Beane has been adding more physicality to the roster and I agree. I would like to see some of this for the Bills:
  8. I promise that you do not want your doctors and surgeons and structural engineers to be online-course trained. Liberal Arts majors on the other hand… right there with ya. I don’t want enough college football to be informed, so someone can feel free to slap me with a dose of reality if i’m off-base here, but I don’t understand the big deal with this sign stealing stuff. I understand if you’re sneaking into practices and filming (cough, Belichick), but grabbing data from signs that are literally shown on live TV for the entire world to see? Seems odd to me.
  9. All draws have hesitation. Without any hesitation, there is no disguise as a pass play. Simply being in shotgun is not a disguise as a pass play. Example: Notice the slight hesitation/head look of the QB. He quickly looks left prior to handing off. Notice the linemen too.
  10. A true draw has hesitation. There was none on this play. I would have to watch it again, but from memory (it was 8 days ago) I think it was duo.
  11. People do make this mistake often but we did not run dart on 3rd and 1 against Tampa.
  12. Ya know, I thought about making that same joke. But I was concerned there may be a few posters that would offer me directions 🤣.
  13. Because it’s the largest (most posters), and best Bills forum on the planet.
  14. Uber is tough near the stadium. And internet connection is spotty. You can make it work, but it often requires patience.
  15. What does him prescribing ambien to Junior Seau or giving himself prescriptions have to do with his ability to diagnose injuries via the mechanism of a movement (leg bend, achilles snap, etc)? No one is arguing to award him the Nobel peace prize. The discussion has simply been whether he can diagnose injuries - and he has proven that he quite capable in that realm. High profile doctors are frivolously sued often. It is for this reason that malpractice insurance exists. “the NFLPA requested a review of his qualifications in 2012. He was cleared by an independent panel of three doctors”
  16. Now we get down to the bottom of it. Not sure why you’re upset about that. Quite frankly, Allen probably should have sat for a couple games. He struggled to drive the ball in the second half of the season and it was widely debated whether he should have taken a few weeks off to heal. He sat out 4 games in his rookie season with a UCL sprain too.
  17. It doesn't. I'm not sure what eball is upset about. And the guy is right the vast majority of the time I have seen him. When you have spent decades as an orthopedic surgeon, and have been the team doctor for an NFL team, it appears when you see the same injuries, year in and year out, it becomes easy to tell what on-field mechanism relates to what injury.
  18. I mean the orthopaedic surgeon with decades of experience, including as a member of the the NFL Physicians Society and has been correct about the majority of the injuries/timelines he has diagnosed.
  19. Some teams will also run alternates to this play, especially when facing defenses they know are good at communicating man-cover switches. Rather than having the outside WR slant in, they will have that WR fade up to the back of the end zone. This puts the boundary CB in conflict. If he goes with the outside WR to the back of the end zone, he leaves the fully-running-with-a-headstart Kincaid with an easy catch and TD run toward the pylon (it’s difficult for the trailing defender to catch up to a receiver who has a head start pre-snap - Miami does this a lot ). But if he doesn’t follow the outside WR to the back, and instead covers Kincaid, then the QB has an easy TD to the back of the end zone. Like this: Back to the play they actually did run (the rub slant). The Bills actually ran a very similar concept to that play against the Patriots. In that situation, rather than having the RB stationary in the backfield at the mesh point, they had the RB motion, Josh faked the handoff to him during the catch of the snap, and Kincaid got the first down via the rub. The Patriots also passed coverage assignment well, but the difference is the Patriots didn’t dare to play bump coverage. They played 5 yards off.
  20. Listening to Beane, he has made it a point of emphasis in multiple interviews that the Fournette signing was a "we will see". He used the words "no promises" in at least two separate interviews.
  21. I think Happy Days source may have hit the happy hour early yesterday. Beane just said on WGR that with Rasul Douglas coming in and Joseph signing and Fournette signing, our cap is at a critical point. Lower than he wants it to be in the season. Dawkins restructured giving us $4M and Joseph takes up about $3.7M of that. I'd be shocked if Suh is signed now. .
  22. Perhaps. I guess this move makes sense knowing Beane and McD. They like the Lotulelei type and Joseph fits the model. Im cool with it
  23. That’s why I wanted Suh. He can clog as well as pass rush.
  24. I laughed at the Bills official injury report for today.
  25. I’m starting to agree. The way Beane and McD keep side stepping the injury updates Milano and DJ tell them they think he’s coming back.
