  1. OK so here's a comment from McD in the BN (I guess I also missed the play) Mitchell Trubisky came in for one play and he handed it off to Kerrith Whyte, which McDermott said was by design in case a similar situation came up in the regular season. So what exact situation were they working on?? I don't get it?? What did this accomplish?? Does this guarantee Super Bowl??
  2. Admittedly I was surprised, I'd have thought he'd have been higher but;..... Allen is a one year franchise QB at this point. Most of these others all have longer and stronger resumes. There is still some skepticism on Allen, he goes out and have a season in 2021 like 2020, that will all go away. I'm sure there are some who'd argue that after what they saw the first two seasons from Allen, they just can't vote him top 5 or so compared to others and it's a somewhat legit argument. It's kind of like making the Pro Bowl, it quickly becomes a lifetime achievement award and Allen needs more than one great year to knock those guys down. Did Allen even make the top 100 last season, I'm guessing not, so to go from not on the list to top 10 in one season is pretty amazing in itself. Are there any other players in the top 10 who'd never made the list before? Even the top 20?
  3. Fromm did impress, Really can't fault Webb though as last two weeks, particularly today, he wasn't put in the best spot. But that may because they know what they have with him so not worrying about it. Plus if he looks bad enough, not likely to be grabbed by another team. On the other hand Fromm did look good enough that if the Bills cut him, think he'd get signed by someone else. I really doubt they carry thee active QB's on the 53 so wonder if they'd try and trade him if they can get something back.
  4. I'm also doing the hat trick What did you think of the announcers though? The Bears guys were OK, at least they for the most part gave the name of the bills players who made the play, mentioned subs and knew something about the team. The Lions guys, barely even mentioned the Bills players. Wonder how out of town Packer fans will view the Bills announcers as I'm assuming the Bills crew will be doing the NFL network broadcast today. On a somewhat related note anyone know what Buffalo station is carrying the game today? By any chance is it the local CBS? Asking as I have CBS all access and want to see if I can view that through this VPN spoofing thing. It did work during the Olympics as allowed me to watch something live via Canadian broadcast network.
  5. Agree on the direct part and the fine impact part too. Could also be players all around are hearing from their agents, If you're not a high paid player, you may be cut if un-vaxed, but no way to prove it either. The agents may be reading the tea leaves they are seeing and hearing.
  6. Or he got the message that he was in danger of being cut. They didn't want a WR room with half un-vaxed?
  7. My first reaction when I saw the title of this post was, I wonder what team these guys played for?
  8. Imagine Fitz with Allen's arm!! What that could have done for years.
  9. I think in his eventual retirement, he's planning to resurrect the Gieco Cave man commercial starring --- him
  10. He also can not sign with the Colorado Buffalo's either, though not positive as that is plural? Or the Buffalo Braves are also out!
  11. He's on IR before season started so his only options are Bills IR for entire season, or take an injury settlement from the Bills which then makes him a FA and can immediately sign a contract with any team NOT named Buffalo. After a certain amount of time, someone stated 6 weeks (I thought it was all season) the Bills could resign him either to the 53 or the PS.
  12. Are his MRI results posted in a separate thread or did I miss it above??
  13. The one knock on Zimmer is he's undersized. Granted he may be one of these guys who proves all the measurable's wrong, will see.
  14. Could be IR for 3 weeks or the year, or could just be another camp body to handle returns for this week or the next couple if a bit longer. We'll see soon I guess.
  15. Thought Milano was also on the Covid list of being sent home?? So guess these are just bodies for Saturdays game. With some many players out now, wonder if Josh will even play Saturday or will sit him to be safe??
  16. My guess is someone pushed the wrong button and thought OK Syracuse is in Bills local domain so we can't show the game here as instead will be on local channel, except it wasn't. Kind of like Monday night games on ESPN are also shown on local station but only in flagship cities of teams playing, not in secondary markets like Rochester, Cuse, etc. Always made me mad as back in the blackout days Rochester was considered the Bills market so games would be blacked out if not sold out, but all of a sudden we're not in the market for Monday night games to be shown local TV station.
  17. Brings back memories of JP Losman getting a broken leg in training camp on hit, think it may have even been out of bounds and also think it was by a safety?? Was it Troy Vincent
  18. If Allen has another season like last year, he's pass Mahomes in a number of these categories like arm strength. Mahomes certainly has a much larger body of work to go by. Allen has only one less season, but his first two seasons weren't all that good considering everything. Last year at this time he wouldn't have even been in the discussion, now he is, give him another year and he and Mahomes could be one and two in just about every category with Allen likely ahead in things like arm strength.
  19. Yes I get it for TE, but just saying he's no longer with Jax, he's released. We can offer Jax Josh Allen and we're not getting Tebow back in return as he's not not on the team.
  20. Tebow was released last week.
  21. I'd have thought that too, but usually guys that go to PS are cut in the last round. Too much time for them to find a new home. Particularly since many teams may be looking for some bodies to play in this weeks upcoming pre-season games.
