    He's basically had no reps with Allen too, so no hurry to bring him back as Sweeney was the man in camp.

    My take on Foster is he's a clone of Brown so do we really need two who do the same? I'd rather see McKenzie getting the snaps instead as he offers something different than Foster. I also wonder if Foster may be somewhat of a head case in that he needs to highly motivated (kind of what happened last year with him) when they signed Brown he saw his snaps going away so doesn't care as much.

    I wonder if they may be some hard feeling on his end and he signs elsewhere? Think if he starts the season looking good and the Bills attempt to extend him during the year, he will sign. But if he plays out his contract, wouldn't be shocked to see he's gone.

    What is Zay and the other two supposed to do, follow Brown down the field and jump in front of him to make the catch. If Allen is only throwing to Brown then so it goes. You said he was targeted 5 times and caught two. Were the other three right in his hands and should have been easy catches

    Did anyone see or hear what he actually said or did to get the penalty? They never showed anything on the replay about it from what I saw.

    Actually the announcers did question it and thought his forward progress was beyond the goal line. But they also thought not enough evidence to overturn either. Kind of surprising to me as usually they give the benefit of the doubt on those types of plays and rule on even the slightest forward progress.

    It was kind of weird too, he pulled the ball down, but it almost looked like the ball kind of got stuck on his hip and and as he pulled his arm in in order to ball in the arm kept moving, but the ball was stopped by the hip and it then fell to the ground.

    While Allen is credited with both fumbles, really the 2nd one should have been on Morse. To me deflected balls have no blame or praise. Just luck, good for D and bad for O Look at how many passes the Bills deflected, but not one landed close to a teammate that could have grabbed it, think there was one somewhat close. I will credit him with two bad throws one on the int called back due to penalty and one dropped, but that does happen all the time with everyone.

    Offensively the Jets played the 4th quarter about the same as the first 3. On the defensive side, Mosely was out. But wil ltake the win.

    Bills are undefeated in 2019!

    Think I saw 71.X Funny Darnold was around 82, but only had 175 yards vs Allens 254. But guess the two Int's and one pick six drop it way down.

    It's also tough to win on the road on the season opener. Next week They go against Giants home opener, but not the same intensity in week 2. Int's off deflection I kind of look at as good luck for Def and bad luck for O Look at how many passes the Bills got a hand on, but maybe only one ever came close to landing where another Bills player could have caught it. Allan had 2 passes that could have been Int's one called back on penalty and another got lucky on, but those things happen all the time to every QB out there over time. All around good game, for the most part, most of his passes were spot on.

    The OP was commenting on what's to stop others from doing this. My response was that it's cost him money and if he goes nuts again in NE he'll likely not find teams wanting to sign him next season or if he wasn't probably one of the top 5 talented players in the league he probably wouldn't have had any teams signing him right now or would have been for less money yet. When you become a distraction and aren't a top talent to start with, teams aren't interested, like Kap. And regardless of whether you're a distraction to your teammates or the general public it's still an overall distraction to the team that turns teams off. AB does still have the top talent card to play, but he's probably on about his last live there too.

    Correct any player can do that. Along with going from $50 mil down to $15 mil. Will some team give him big $$ next year, not nearly as likely as it was a year ago. Plus he also is/was one of the best players in the league. There may be 5 players in the league who could even come close to pulling off what he just maneuvered through based on talent. Granted totally different reasons behind it, but hows things working out for Kap? So far the Steeler brain trust of Brown and Bell have lost quite a bit of money in the past year, so likely players will think twice before trying it

    If you noticed on that Hulu thread you started someone posted that Reddit cracked down on the college games being available, so his thinking is the NFL games are going to be the same and Reddit may not work. 

     

    If that is the case and Reddit doesn't work, my backup plan would be to use a VPN app that I have switch to London and watch thru International Gamepass.  You get a 7 day free trial so that would be fine for this weekend.  Next week, would then need to buy it which costs around $180.  I'm fine with spending that amount as long as I'm fairly certain it will work every week, but does make me a bit nervous to spend that amount and it doesn't work in the end.

     

    A couple weeks back I kind of tried it out, tried going to the International Gamepass website, and it told me I wasn't eligible and didn't give me any access , then turned on the VPN to London, tried again and it allowed me access and could have signed up.  So it did seem to be working for me and had my location spoofed.

    Someone posted in another thread that Reddit has cracked down on streaming of college games and is assuming may find the same tomorrow for the NFL games. So may be a moot point arguing about legal or not.
  17. Ed_Formerly_of_Roch
    I think he'll get signed within a week. Likely teams will wait a day or two so not to find out in hindsight they were bidding against themselves, plus after tomorrow contract not guaranteed for season. Will be a modest one year, prove it deal, $10 mil and maybe $3 to $4 mil signing bonus. Likely teams will check with the NFL first to find out if suspension is looming as that could slow things down. Can the NFLPA represent an unsigned player? That would be like asking them to represent me.
  18. Ed_Formerly_of_Roch
    Hmmm..... Well that will really suck
  19. Ed_Formerly_of_Roch
    I'll tell you one person in the NFL who has to be real happy about all this and that's Bill O'Brian as he's no longer being described as the dumbest man in the NFL or the leader of the most dysfunctional organization!

    Problem is seems like in 90% of the time the player win's Yes the arbitrator maybe rule in the players favor, but then Brown sues and courts don't seem to rule too often in the favor of the leagues or teams. Too much of what is in sports leagues is legally not valid it seems.
  21. Ed_Formerly_of_Roch
    I have the same problem, though I can't blame it on autodraft. I picked him. Was picking last, picking were slim, figured he was a gamble, but was worth the risk.
  22. Ed_Formerly_of_Roch
    No he decided to take a rest day without asking permission. Slight difference there! And just to spell it out clearly for you I'm using the word "Slight" in an extremely sarcastic manner.

    So when I go into Hulu I click the link that states SET OR CHANGE HOME, it comes back with this "By updating your home you are indicating to us that you have moved to a new home location. You have used 0 / 4 of your available home changes within the past 12 months" There's a button below that says RETURN TO ACCOUNT but nothing else to click on so don't see where I can change it. Hmmmmmm......! Last couple of seasons I've used Reddit and it's been pretty reliable. OK so as I re-read it, think it is not letting me change it becasue it knows based on IP address that I haven't gone anywhere. If I logged in a different location, then would likely allow me to use it there. Maybe if when I first subscribed my computer was sitting in Western NY, could have set it there and even though never actually there again, could have left NY as my home?? Probably if I had a VPN to switch to Western NY could change it to there and leave it?

    I just got it, the guide is terrible, well it's pretty much non existent. I too have heard about switching zip codes, but not many details on it.
  25. Ed_Formerly_of_Roch
    LOL He gave you his analysis you just don't like it so it's all wrong! What do you want from him a 5000 word essay on the game. Looking at the link he gave the same amount of coverage to the Bills Jets game as the rest of them. I'm sure if he had picked the Bills you'd be labeling him a genius. Poor baby!
