  1. The one thing I couldn't figure out, Klein played a fair amount today. Was someone else not playing or just a case or rotating much more because of the heat. Last week he had zero snaps.
  2. Don't disagree with you, but can't explain what is different than last year when this concept seemed to work well. Same line and pretty much same WR group. While we're talking about studs, not that I'd go quite that far, but Knox played another strong game. Good catch on the TD, got some good yards after catch and likely prevented an INT on the over throw by Allen. Think the CB dropped it after being hit by a Mack truck, i.e. Knox. Granted it wasn't that Knox sought him out, just being in the right place at the right time, but was a hard hit. Also think I saw him have a good block on Moss TD run too.
  3. Glad to see the Bills are running a little more, but not on first down!
  4. I see a lot of Dolphin fans disguised as empty seats. Where's all their fans.
  5. Actually he was caught from behind. Not too shocking I suppose.
  6. Really!!! We can't go an hour here without a stupid post!
  7. Yeah but it's not like either Zimmer or Butler can't play that role to some level, and it's only for running plays.
  8. I'm wondering it's more just that Phillips is Stars backup and plays his position. Star usually comes out on passing plays anyway, so just not a need for him where Zimmer can play multiple roles. Admittedly that still does limit Phillips,
  9. I've had the same exact experience, think I even tried a different browser, Edge, and had same results. May have to result to using a streaming site instead. Next week, Skins game is also on Fox too.
  10. Watching the Miami Mich St game in Miami. They were just saying it's 90 degrees, and no shade, players are taking Oxygen. Should be interesting tomorrow.
  11. So how do you get the Fox feed to live stream?? I've never had any luck getting the Fox Buffalo station to watch live online. Someone suggested Fox live streaming only works with certain browsers?? Didn't have any better luck with Fox Miami either this past weekend.
  12. Actually there are are few grades of stainless steel that are magnetic mostly in the "400" series, one of the toughest 440 is only magnetic after hardening. Think most flatware is made from 13/0 which is a cheap variety with zero nickel content. It appears most stainless's with low to no nickel content are the magnetic ones and are somewhat close to being a plain steel. Think some flatware is even made from plain steel with a chrome plating or EN plating or something over it. PS, the people in the video I saw,pretty certain they were NOT eating high class!
  13. The best one I heard was that people who got vaccinated became magnetized. They weren't able to eat dinner anymore because their knife and fork would stick to their chest.
  14. This!! 20 years ago, Bruce DeHavan could just tell Frank Reich, stay an extra 1/2 hour after practice to work on kicks. Or even if not after practice, much more and longer practice times back then so could get away with it. Not sure about this, but wonder if also back then did the 1st string QB's tend to hold in college more, so when they got to NFL and now were no longer the starter, they still had experience at holding??
  15. Biggest issue I have is Griese never shuts up.
  16. Think they may have just lost another one the way the one guy went down holding his knee
  17. I'll probably get blasted for suggesting this but all along I've felt the roster may still be one year away from being able to win the SB. This off season between decrease in salary cap and other $$ issues, they were very limited in what they could do to improve the roster very much. Both lines would need to show big improvement this year to win now. At this point I'm more worried about the O-Line. Next year they are supposed to have more money to use to improve the offensive line. Sign the top FA guard and center out there. Also give one full year for all the young blood on D line to improve and get rid of some of the bad contracts there too. Maybe sign a top replacement for Star. Draft a legit #2 CB in the first round. What FA does Carolina have coming up this off season?? LOL
  18. You must be old! You've never taken "New Math" in school!
  19. Do wonder if part of Allen's problem was he was keeping one eye on the rush all game as they were in his face so much of the time. He also was careless with the ball the way he was carrying it. Think most of his issues are more mental than anything else, needs to calm down. Line does worry me, think Dawkins is still not back to 100 from Covid. What I don't know is it strength or stamina? If it's stamina, then maybe every 6 or 7 plays, sub in Brown. If it's strength, then may need to just play Brown all game for another week or two.
  20. I just looked at the team stats. If I didn't know who won the game, I'd have guess the Bills crushed them. 79 to 55 plays, 371 to 252 yards to mention a couple. The only stats not significantly favoring the Bills were 2 TO' s though 2 isn't excessively high for a game. What Pitt did with the one though was a back breaker. The other one was penalties, but even that wasn't a huge difference. The one other stat that would have made me raise an eye brow was 51 pass attempts. That usually doesn't happen when a team wins a game (or even loses)
  21. Think you might want to visit the eye doctor. Completely agree on the 1st two. Holding on the Int could go either way.
  22. Wonder how much #2 caused #3? Did Allen have one eye on the blocking in front of him all day? Do wonder if Dawkins is not recovered fully from Covid and just doesn't have 100% of his strength back? Was it 4 holding calls? Agree completely on Allen's lack of ball protection. Last year he got away with it for the most part.
  23. So how'd they win 13 games last year with basically the same team except swap out Sanders for Brown. Well can't really swap him out as Brown hardly played last season. Those guys are better than ours?? If they are it's not all that noticeable and how's their #3 and #4 compare to ours? Give him a little time, Davis can become as good as any of these other teams #2 WR core isn't our problem. Biggest issue I saw today was O line and Allen playing like he did 2 years ago, except playing like that against Steeler's defense isn't going to work. Maybe the lines troubles caused Allen's issues, don't know? Do wonder if Dawkins just doesn't have all his strength or speed or something back from his Covid episode. Was it 4 holding calls on him?
  24. OK I'll play along with the Etrz rumors, lets say it were to happen: Aren't salaries guaranteed for vets if they are on the roster week 1? So if the Eagles were to trade Ertz to Buffalo, would we then have to honor his existing contract?? And if the Eagles were to cut him after Sunday, wouldn't he then be due his full salary from them?
  25. That's probably the downside of having an E. Elliott on your team. It makes it harder to justify throwing earlier. In that respect may have been better off not drafting Etienne as would have put more emphasis on running.
