Yes. If you swap the last consonants in his first and last name, his name would be Jalel Virgin. In that order?

Okay... maybe I'm wrong. If you have access I'd love to know where Rasul and Benford stack up. Thanks!

I feel like a 1st and a 2nd might get it done... but offer 2 2nds and sweeten the deal if necessary. F5

October 12th : Keon Coleman Day Look! A squirrel!!!

Congratulations on an improbable and unexpectedly long life!!! I do not...

(drum roll)... Linval Joseph Catheter... (gulp) It seems that losing teams suffer more injuries than winning teams. Just an impression.

To the bolded, is there some blackmail/extortion scheme going on there?

I agree but it's not totally black and white. In this case and the case of the Vikings at the end of the first half when Darrisaw was injured (he's now out for the season), there was a miniscule chance that playing to score could change the outcome of the game. That said the odds are so stacked against that it's not worth trying IMO.

Firstly I'm not arguing with you. I would say that the only camera angle available seems pretty inconclusive. Here it is slowed down and blown up: It seems like Roquan possibly "unweights" himself over Godwin's lower body which is one of the criteria for a hip drop tackle.

McDermott has a lifetime .629 winning percentage. That's higher than John Harbaugh, Mike Tomlin, Sean Payton Sean McVay, Kyle Shanahan... Do you have any actual data to backup your claim?

Christopher Columbus won the Biletnikoff Award? I just usually nod my head and smile... just play it off. Biletnikoff? I believe either/both of the Ravens or the Patriots will receive a compensatory pick for this acquisition. Correct? Thank you for your contribution... anyone else?

The Fish's lack of offensive productivity also points to poor backup QBing IMO. You're drinking again, aren't you?

... for his victory tour float to turn back into a pumpkin. Jim Kelly broke Jim Harbaugh's jaw? And now with his trusted blindside protector Christian Darrisaw out for the season... BTW, Kevin McConnell is not getting enough flack for calling a running play in that situation instead of a kneel down. I posted this elsewhere but it fits well here: During the 2018 preseason playing for the Raiders, EJ Manuel led the NFL in passing. In 4 games he went 40-56 (71.4%) for 477 yards (8.5 YPA) with 4 TDs and 0 interceptions for a passer rating of 120.9. https://www.footballdb.com/statistics/nfl/player-stats/passing/2019/preseason He was cut by Gruden in the final cutdown who chose to keep AJ McCarron as Derek Carr's backup. In February 2019 EJ was signed by Andy Reid but chose to retire less than 3 months later without playing a down for the Chiefs. Point is if Geno Smith resurrected his career I'm pretty sure EJ could have too. On the other hand Cunningham had a lot of talent around him... Fred Barnett, Calvin Williams, Herschel Walker, Keith Byars, Roy Green, Heath Sherman, and a great defense with Reggie White, Seth Joyner, Byron Evans, Clyde Simmons, Eric Allen, Andre Waters... like the Warren Moon Houston Oilers teams that you mention, a star-studded lineup. Sounds kinky. Baker can really spin the ball. Now without Evans and Godwin he has a tough row to hoe. I sense he and Darnold have hit their high water marks for the season. The forecast looks like dry weather.

Games missed by Milano by season: Year Missed Games 2017 0 16 2018 3 16 2019 1 16 2020 6 16 2021 1 17 2022 2 17 2023 12 17 Total 25 114 Not including this season where he's missed all 7 games, Milano has missed 25 of 114 games or 21.9% of all games. If you eliminate the last two seasons where he's missed 12 of 24 games, he's at 13 of 97 missed for 13.4%... meaning that he usually misses more than 2 games per year. The problem is that it's a passing league and Spector is below average in that area. He's still young and can improve and obviously we're hoping that he and Dorian continue to progree without costing us any games.

Yeah we're gonna have to stuff you in your locker for that... maybe give you a wedgie for good measure. The one that gets me is calling an exhibition soccer match a "friendly." You, we're going to tape to the goalposts.

Such an elementary cost:benefit analysis.

Just a brutal and unnecessary way to lose your starting left tackle.

I feel like Bills' Elvis would be more effective... You dirty, little somnambulist!

Bills fans are excited and expectant of another move because Brandon Beane said the following on the Pat McAfee show after the Amari Cooper trade: "We had been having conversations quietly with a couple teams just seeing where they were at.. We talked to the Browns again on Sunday night & things got hot & heavy yesterday morning. We're still all in and we've still got a few weeks until the trade deadline.. We have been all in all along and we're gonna do everything we can to win this thing." That sounds like a GM who hasn't ruled out another trade to bolster the team's chances.

Just to throw another log on the fire... "Four Trades the Buffalo Bills should make before the Trade Deadline" (from the Sporting News): https://www.sportingnews.com/us/nfl/buffalo-bills/news/four-trades-buffalo-bills-should-make-nfl-trade-deadline-diontae-johnson-tyrann-mathieu-grant-delpit-travon-walker-cleveland-browns-jacksonville-jaguars-new-orleans-saints/7bb85dbb1539591d6701b853 Safety Grant Delpit Cleveland Safety Tyrann Mathieu New Orleans Edge Travon Walker Jacksonville WR Diontae Johnson Carolina

May your fantasies come true. The problem with that theory is that he can't stay healthy. Arguably it would be better if he showed flashes that he still has it... than actually leaning on him. Last week against Detroit he had a few chances to win the game and failed.

Sherfield was never more than 5 yards downfield... by rule the LB could have chucked him as he was running by. Why isn't that coached?

Regarding Coleman, if you told the Bills that your crystal ball said that he wouldn't able to start right away the Bills would have assumed an injury, or a veteran player deserving the starting spot more. Happy or not isn't relevant. Regarding Bishop, do you think the Bills thought that he would get injured on July 30th and not return to practice until September 4th?

Yes, drafting Cole Bishop is exactly one of the reasons that they're happy with this position group. Everyone knows that Bishop will be a starter some day... which makes trading for another safety nonsensical... especially with Mike Edwards also in the mix. Basically many posters here are unhappy that Damlin is starting... they think they know better than the coaching staff. I don't know better than the coaching staff and have faith that changes will be made in the starting lineup when they're merited.
