Well you can monitor it and talk about it all you want, but doubt anything will change barring injury which likely isn't going to help things. It certainly appears that something is not right with Dawkins, regardless of what comes out of 1 Bills Drive, have to think it could be effects from Covid, certainly not something they could have anticipated. Why Williams is struggling this year at tackle is also hard to figure out, but if he stays inside at guard, we're OK there and Brown is likely to only get better as the year goes on. In some ways may be good he didn't start from week 1 as often rookies hit the wall around week 12 as not use to such a long season. Not playing all last season can't help there either WRT conditioning. I'm sure will be addressed in off season, but until then likely nothing much can be done about it. O line too is the type of position that need to work with the players next to you for awhile so even some wild waiver wire pickup isn't going to help much this year, barring injury.

I will say it's somewhat unusual that team would lose by 28 points, but lead time of possession and have run more total plays and have almost as many first downs. I suppose it's due to the Bills having some many long plays so didn't take many plays or time to score a TD. I suppose averaging 9.1 yards per play helps

I'd think the Steelers tying the Lions would be worse

Kind of reminds me of the Christie days, bu think Bass has a little stronger leg.

Edmunds salary this year is around $4mil. None of the option money comes into play till next year. If they cut him they would have had a $4 mil dead cap this year. So explain to me how money for next year would have helped them sign any other players this year? Imagine if you had a brain!

Early on was playing more the role of the 3rd LB. Once he started playing either Edmunds or Milano's role when they got hurt, he was a different guy.

A number of posters here and I didn't necessarily disagree with them felt that this will be Klein's last year as makes way too much for the little he plays. But he can fill in for both Edmunds and Milano with little loss on the field. Considering they only play two LB's for the most part, may be worth having him as one extremely valuable backup for next year.

Huh??

I was wondering if due to his concussion did he maybe have some type of padding or something inside and that was what was making it pop off??

Basically they activated Breida today in place of Kumarow. Think Breida gets at least one more week He fumbled today, and recovered his own fumble fortunately. At a point when the score was still close too.

So am wondering, was that just because they decided to change things up or were Sanders and Beasley hurt, or game just out of hand by then so they sat? It was kind of all at end of game, only a little scattered throughout, so that makes me wonder about injury? Not as many dumb penalties, couple of the holding calls on Dawkins are bit concerning. Just don't think he's 100% Have no idea on the personal foul call against AJ, didn't see anything that looked bad on replay?? A fair amount of long pass completions too by Jets on 3rd and 4th downs that kept drives alive. Also many long passes by Bills too for a change.

If he drops a pass, he needs to be cut. Don't care if he has a cast on!

OK that's what I thought too

I've made the comment here before and other posters didn't seem to think that was the case, that the coaching staff wanted him to lose the weight, that it wasn't a surprise. Glad to hear someone else state that, maybe I'm not imagining things!

IMO this past off-season the moves that could be questioned around the O-line were resigning Mongo and Williams. But if you let them both walk, could they have signed anyone better for the money they had available. To me that was the issue this past year was lack of much money to work with. You could have also not reworked Addison's or Butlers contracts and let them go maybe even not draft Basham in round 2. But then potentially would be weaker on the D line and that was the biggest area last off season folks here wanted to see improved. Overall based on last years performance, there were more concerns about the D line than the O line. Is still hard to figure out how the same 5 guys look so much worse this year. May be that Dawkins is still recovering from Covid. Mongo and Ike look worse than last season, not sure what happened there. Will be interesting to see how much better they look this week with Brown back and Williams inside.

Curious, is there an actual IPTV website where it explains the details??? For $60 the first year ($120 starting 2nd year) you can subscribe to Paramount + which includes the old CBS All access and change the IP address of where you are to watch the games out of local Buffalo station. Doesn't help you with the games on Fox, but with the Bills being an AFC team doesn't come into play that many weeks. Then could take an old laptop open it there, and connect to TV via HDMI Not that I would do such a thing. I assume this IPTV basically does the same but somehow maybe more user friendly (or not) within the $40 you pay for the box. I did google it and for how legal/illegal it is it states: These devices are legal when used to watch legitimate, free to air content or for paid subscription channels such as Netflix; however, they become illegal once adapted to stream illicit content. So this is free to air content, just not at your specific location becomes a bit more of a gray area. Just curious about Spectrum TV, can you watch while traveling?? I subscribe to You Tube TV because have two houses so can use in both location, it will update to the local channels in whichever location I'm accessing from. Mainly use for ESPN, other sports channels as have a TIVO with antenna at primary location but at 2nd location also use it for local TV as no antenna. Was wondering if able to access when remote in a location that Spectrum is NOT a local provider. If I had a Roku box at 2nd location would that allow me to access account and programming?

Heard Zimmer was placed on IR the other day, did they bring up someone else to the 53 to take his spot? Was it Cam Lewis?

No it's OK to draft a kicker in the 6th round, but we just drafted a bad one, at least that was what many here were posting last September into early October

Always interesting to look at the maps, like what did Fargo ND do to deserve the Jax-Indy game? Could understand if it were San Fran and was SD

They offer single team packages for MLB Baseball but the difference in price between buying the entire package vs one team hardly makes it worth it. Take the weeks the Bills may be a Sunday or Monday night or 4:00 game or bye, if you want to watch just a couple other games, you'd wish you bought the whole package. I do wonder how much this will increase the cost of ESPN + by, but likely still orders of magnitude cheaper than a DTV contract for 2 years.

If it's not the players it's the coaches or front office. This week after losing all the Allen, Daboll, Beane, and McD haters are out in force. I think it's more a case of they stated early on player/coach XX is not good, but then they do lots of good /great stuff so can't say much. But just waiting for anything bad to say "See I told you so, I told you I was right!" They don't hate anyone, they just want everyone to know they were right all along.

OK was wondering if that might be the case, but figured there are many that do believe that's an issue so figured I'd respond anyway!

Who cares, I'd be very happy if he or Moss were caught from behind every time after a 5 to 7 yard gain.

When exactly did the Packers state he was vaccinated? Sounds like they knew he wasn't but weren't going to come out and say we want to correct what Rodgers stated, if for no other reason they couldn't legally say anything. From everything written yes the Packers did look the other way to some level. Also think the Packers didn't want to make a contentious relationship any worse either. Maybe the one thing Rodgers did tell the truth on is that the only rule he didn't follow was wearing a mask to press conferences, who knows. Even so that was one thing they didn't then follow so they are guilty there. Seems Beasley has been doing un masked PC's too. Maybe that's just something all the teams are ignoring. Some folks think the PC's have been held outside, but others felt some were but others were inside. Or maybe for all Beasley's ranting about this, he really is vaccinated, but he's just on a huge personal freedom rant.

Not too surprising when you figure last year the first half included the Tenn and KC games where Allen didn't play that well. Plus in general the last half of the season was when Allen really was firing on all cylinders. First half was good (minus Tenn and KC) second half he was great.
