Can someone help me out and explain why — in this offense with Josh specifically — Josh is better under center, as Orlovsky says? 1. How is protection better? Dan says it calms Josh down a bit. 2. How does Josh read the field better? 3. How do the route running/concepts change and/or improve? Just trying to understand and specific examples help me. Thanks in advance. 🍻

When Bernard got home tonight to see a trail of rose petals from the hallway to his bed, he wasn't that surprised. It's also rooted in athletic tradition going back thousands of years: A Time-Honored Tradition The tradition of awarding flowers to sports competition winners traces its roots back to ancient times. In ancient Greece, wreaths made from olive branches were presented to the victors of the Olympic Games. These wreaths, known as kotinos, symbolized honor and glory and were highly coveted by the athletes. As time passed, the practice of awarding flowers spread to various sports and cultures around the world. From the rose garlands bestowed upon champions in Roman sporting events to the bouquets of tulips given to victors in Dutch cycling races, flowers have become an integral part of the awards ceremony, adding a touch of natural beauty and elegance to the occasion. But I can see what people don't like the phrase. I find it rather quaint myself, especially in a tough-man's sport.

If he and Cook continue roughly on this trajectory, the McBeane drafts don't look as bad as the many have assumed. Small sample size for Bernard but I'm hopeful he can be a top-15 MLB which, for the money, is all we need him to be. If he's simply average and not good or a liability, that's acceptable too but maybe he's a little more.

Thanks. I watched this. A couple decent runs but nothing special overall. Aligns with my memory of him. I'll take Murray and/or Harris over Moss any Sunday.

I've read for years a narrative that Moss was/is a bruiser. I don't remember seeing much evidence of him shedding tackles the way Murray or Harris do. Is there some highlight real of his that proves this? I remember him going north south for a few yards at a time but never consistently running through tackles. Also of note, I've read his weight is anything from 223 (drafted weight) to 205, what is posted now and what the Bills said he was for a long time. If you're a slow back and only 205 pounds, that's not the chocolate and peanut butter of hard, chain-moving running. Why take a back with no traits 88th overall? A head scratcher.

Was listening to the Thursday One Bills Live show and Chris was on with Maddy (Tasker off)... Some caller had a 2 questions... one about what to do and not do in London and the second was "how are things with Maddy and Steff..." Brown immediately responded with an irritated tone "we're not going to go there..." and then talked London. So she's back in business but the organization doesn't want to discuss it.

Good D-line may mean a lot of quick throws. Steff is a bit obvious so I'll go with Kincaid.

I'm glad for this. It proves to Josh he can be recognized as "great "when he's surgical and efficient. I think every QB who's getting paid hundreds of millions wants to be recognized as great. The claim I read here that Josh was heard/recorded saying "I'm the best athlete in the world!" would support this. His hero ball is probably a manifestation of the desire to live up to the hype. So hopefully this is is positive reinforcement that high efficiency can be great too.

Baby probably flew out of the snapper and evaded the doctors hands.

Hmmm. That might be chess-level thinking there...

That short interview actually endeared me to him a little... I hope he succeeds.

I don't always end up naked and covered in human excrement in construction holes, but when I do, I do it in Buffalo.

Anyone with PFF access able to share how Torrence is ranking? And Brown's single-game rating for the Raiders game? Cheers.

For mature Bills fans this is non-news. For petty fans like me, this is one more reason to hate the Chiefs: their first-ballot HOF TE/cave man is dating the world's biggest pop star.

One final Edmunds report? That's like a crackhead asking his dealer for one final hit.

“It’s not about being the highest-paid guy,” Mahomes said. “It’s not about making a ton of money. I’ve made enough money where I’ll be set for the rest of my life. But at the same time, you got to find that line where you’re making a good amount of money but you’re still keeping like great players around you so you can win these Super Bowls and you’re able to compete in these games.” Read more at: https://www.kansascity.com/sports/spt-columns-blogs/for-petes-sake/article275756221.html#storylink=cpy

That's the $250,000,000 question.

She's still listed as employed by the team, so I imagine after a serous talking-to (not that I think she really messed up bad) she'll continue to do her job. https://www.buffalobills.com/author/maddy-glab

I was hoping whoever mans the middle will not be great, even good, just merely competent. So far so good (competent game 1) for Bernard... Miami should be a big test. If Bernard can help ensure Mostert doesn't have a big day that will go a lot further to convince me he's the guy (the secondary will have its hands full with the WRs). But it's not the crap show many predicted. At least not yet.

Jonathan Taylor... NO!

I understand that she's limited but Chris Brown is also employed by the Bills and, to me, offers on his show with Tasker, some reasonably astute observations. I think as far as "reporters" go, Brown is decent, and has been around the game and understands it to a fair degree. I don't get that with Glab. I'll still turn to Cover 1 for real nuts and bolts insight, but that's my take.

Good to hear McDermott say Rousseau is bringing some "nastiness" to his game. And that Floyd has been a good mentor that way. I feel a lot better about the D line this year. If Von is close to his old self, look out.

Miami's speed scares me but the Pats holding Hill to 40 yards gives me hope. But you can't let Mostert gash you like that. Lots of weapons. Should be a very interesting Bills game when we seem them in a couple weeks.

Fantastic FG block! I'm not holding my breath but wishing for a Pats upset as the Bills need all the Miami losses we can get.

Not looking forward to defending the Fish attack. The AFCE will be a real battle this year.
