Looks like a complete waste of a 3rd round pick. It’s telling he’s playing amongst some guys who won’t even make the PS.

Ulofoshio looks as lost as Tremaine Edmunds used to look. Zero awareness of receivers coming into his area.

No with our secondary.

And it’s not fair for evaluation purposes when you have a backup who can’t run the offense. Bad QB’ing makes the line look worse and neuters pass catchers. Get a competent backup, Beane.

Hoecht had a sack on 4th down that led to a missed Bills FG. In other news: Bills HAVE GOT to find a competent backup QB. I’d take a Gardner Minshew/Tyler Bagent/Jameis Winston type. Done with White and Trubisky, they both suck.

Their defense will be demonstrably worse without Lou Anarumo and they were already a dumpster fire. #32 in the league, #30 at best.

They could make it work if they really wanted to, but it would def mean clearing a couple bad contracts off the books - Samuel, Knox - and trading Rousseau in the package.

Went to three when they added a 17th regular season game.

Think they missed Fitzmagic to TO - 99 yards. EDIT: never mind that was at Jacksonville. Dunno why I thought that was in Buffalo.

I think barring injuries, the Bills, Chiefs, and Ravens will be 1-3 in some order. Of course it’s not guaranteed, but I can’t see some other AFC team (the Texans?) surpassing the top 3. Going off the assumption and hope that all will be relatively healthy, I’d bet real money the 1 seed avoids having to play the other two. Bills are the only one of the three not to have had the 1 seed.

Bills NEED the 1 seed this year more than any other. Let the Chiefs and Ravens battle it out in the divisional for the right to meet Buffalo - in Buffalo - for their final game ever at Rich/Ralph Wilson/Highmark stadium.

No, I don’t know much about the Bears, but do see a lot of complaining about their tackle situation. Their HC says LT in particular needs to resolve itself soon. I remember hearing the name Darnell Wright as a promising prospect so I looked him up: reports are that he’s regressed at RT and the three vying for LT (Braxton Jones, Ozzy Trapilo, and Theo Benedet) have all been underwhelming. Supposedly they were abused by Groot and Bosa today too.

Chicago should’ve taken one of those LTs that went in the first round instead of a TE. Bad GM’ing if their tackle situation is that awful.

For anyone keeping tabs, CB Trey Amos has reportedly been “lights out” in camp and is likely to start for the Commies. I know there was a lot of back and forth between him, Hairston, and the Michigan corner, who’s also looking good.

Did you see the play? Others are saying it was Rapp who got beat, but in any case both starting safeties were there for practice today.

Rapp might be the slowest starting safety in the league but generally takes good angles. It’s good for these things to happen in practice, would be less beneficial for the defense if the Bears offense didn’t make any plays.

I think I’d like it if Jenna Cottrell and Maddy Glab switched jobs.

Didn’t the Bears dominate the Dolphins in their joint practice? Good to see the Bills were the better team today with all things considered.

Both Rapp and Bishop have been full participants. But yes, they need to work on their chemistry and communication.

Tre is a great guy, top notch personality, but you probably won’t find anyone who has torn both an ACL AND an Achilles who managed to get back to the athlete they once were.

I think it’s thud since they’ve got a game Sunday but there are reports of players hitting the ground and both sides getting very chippy.

Sal C said the pass defense has given up too much on the day, but the run D has been solid. The secondary will continue to be a weakness until it’s not.

As for the joint practice, sounds like a big day for Elijah Moore.

It’s only 5 shows, just for the preseason. They have separate teams (a conference) they’ll highlight for in season.

I don’t think I’ve heard one question about SVPG’s injury. He hasn’t practiced once, even in minicamp if I remember correctly. What’s going on with his calf?
