A big reason this happens is when you keep changing coaches, front office etc, then you start all over. So for all the folks calling to fire Beane and McD this will help extend the years.

So do you feel having one of these guys sitting on the sideline, but never actually playing will somehow scare the team the Bills are playing? Are you afraid that if Allen were to get hurt mid game one of these guys can jump in and win the game and keep the teams Super Bowl chances alive? IF Allen were to get hurt and out multiple weeks , then we can have this discussion.

Of course! Terry P probably slipped Breer $100G under the table and asked him to write an article to instill faith for the fans. If SI wanted to sell an article and and get the most hits, they'd write an article ripping the Bills for all the moves.

So the question is, did Peterman not make the throws because he was too busy looking at the lineman fearing any second he was about to get hit. I don't know McCarron showed even less than Peterman and one of the knocks on him was holding onto the ball too long. He was kind of like TT without the legs.

On a lighter note, does anyone know is Tavern on The Tracks have a weekly gathering for Bills fans? Evacuated from Wilmington so am here in Charlotte.

Must be talking about himself, only thing that sounds about right.

Yeah but you'd never believe that from listening to many around here.

I'm not even sure it's that they hate the Bills as much as they post their opinion and don't want to be proven wrong. 95% of the posters here have little real understanding compared to actual NFL coaches, etc. but that doesn't stop any of them form posting their opinion and anyone who doesn't agree is just plain dumb. They get roasted for what they wrote, so then they become negative more for trying to prove they are right about what they posted. They'll often then double down on an earlier post with another one again to prove they are right and just snow balls from there. So it's more proving they are right, than anything against the Bills. But based on their posts, the only way to prove they are right is to bash the Bills.

Well that leaves you out!

Maybe you need to check your facts a little bit first Dennison is the O line coach , much different than being coordinator TT didn't win was a tie, Browns may have won if TT didn't throw a late game interception and maybe was on target for a few other passes. Bills didn't fire or cut any of the WR you mention, they left via free agency or trade. The first two items on the QB play, read an article yesterday believe was on the Buffalo news written by someone forget the name, was QB at Navy, think he may have coached too, who spoke about how 2nd int for example completely wasn't Petermans fault. But then again who knows alot more about these types of subjects, a guy who played D1 level QB and maybe more or a hotshot poster like yourself.

So far working fine for me, even painstakingly typed the addy into my browser on my smart TV and am watching it in full screen on a 55" TV

Yeah I tried using my mothers address which is an assisted living facility and it came back as not eligible. So I'd like to know what makes an apartment address eligible??

Is there a location someplace can see the roster id depth chart form? alot easierthat way. I know Bills Daily was always good for that in the past and good for transaction lists too.

See it as a good option. If he plays well and team wins he stays in and players on team will be happy as they want to win this year. If he does poorly and they lose, bring in Allen around game 5 I think Allen can learn alot on sidelines for a few weeks, pace of game, pace of getting plays in and out, game day routine, regular season weekly routine, learn play book better, watching and listening, grind of a 16 game season plus 6 weeks of pre-season. A few weeks of that and say plays 10 games I think is better than playing 16 games, but is very lost. Only way it could work out bad is Peterman plays real well, but team still loses, then a little harder to sit him, but rare that a QB plays real well and team loses. I would imagine he may get more practice reps with 1st team than a normal backup would get.

To be eligible for PS you can't have more than 2 years in league. Doubt a QB that green would do any good. He'd be inactive every game, so even if both QB's got hurt in same game, you couldn't use him anyway. If a QB were to get hurt, better option is to sign a vet who's been around and maybe someone who has played in same offense. And most of these guys if been around awhile, have played in every offense out there at some point.

I would strongly argue that there isn't a connection or at least there shouldn't be. The problem is there simply are not enough top level QB's to go around for all the teams. There's many things you can blame GM's for but not finding a franchise QB shouldn't be one of them as half the teams in the league are doing no better at this. And if you fire the GM for this reason, all you're doing then is bringing in some other guy who truthfully has no better chance of finding the answer at QB than the guy you just fired. Hey lets bring in someone from Greenbay, they found Farve and Rodgers. Was it really that they were smarter than everyone else or just got lucky. You certainly wouldn't want to bring in anyone from Atlanta at that time as they must have been completely clueless for letting Farve go. In reality, nobody has much of any ideas on QB's and which ones do succeed and which ones don't because if they did everyone would be doing it too. I will agree that GM's will sometimes take chances on risky QB choices again only because there aren't enough good ones to go around, but I think it's a mistake to be penalized or fired for that. Nor should you be penalized for not taking a chance on a risky one, but then the team will likely never become good either. So GM's do need to take chances, but likely will fail more than succeed when it comes to QB's. I think the bigger reason GM's fail is for giving out bad over paid contracts more often to non QB's as usually with QB's by the time the 1st contract is up, they've figured out whether this is the guy or not, but position players is where they get in trouble. (see MD) and then often doubling down and pushing money down the road until eventually it all blows up. And the other area of failure for GM's is multiple bad draft picks.

Except he's be competing with 30 other teams to pick him up and not to mention would not have had 3 weeks of training camp under his belt to have learned the offense. Just like when the Browns traded for TT, they knew we were going to release him, but they wanted exclusive rights to him so they made the trade. We did the same here for a 2020 7th round pick. So what QB should he have taken instead that you' could argue was a guaranteed day one starter. Everyone one of them had some type of blemish. Yes Darnold is starting, but trhere were/are long term questions about him too.

If that's the case, then the team is in serious trouble as close to half of all rookie QB's fail regardless of how high or low they are picked. There was a chart posted a few months back that showed over the last7 seasons or so, only about 30% of first round QB's became true franchise type QB's. So judging anyone on that is bad.

Mathematically you answered the question! Apparently you hate them all! Can Shaq play guard. It would certainly take some time for the DL man to get around him, unless he runs between his legs. I could see this happening only if they get off to a real bad start, 2-5 some team who is in serious playoff contention and has their RB injured and out for the year. Then a trade may happen and if desperate enough may get something decent in return. I also do agree that barring a spectacular season like 1500 yards he'll be gone in the off-season, RB is the easiest position too for a rookie to come in and excel.

If he's suspended for the season, why bother, next season the Bills will have money to sign someone who's not likely to get suspended again. What did he do, make it through one season clean. I don't care how talented you are, WR takes some time to adjust to the QB. If he's suspended lets say for only 8 games (likely will be more) by the time he comes back and gets on track with QB the year would be practically over. I recall even when the Bills signed James Loften, his first year he, took him some time to geton track with the rest of the offense. So no, to me is a waste if he's getting suspended.

And you have one of the worst posting records ever! You have know idea how to make a decent post and what you're talking about The only person who thinks your ideas are any good is yourself!

So you just said yourself, It's literally that close. It has to be conclusive to overturn. So if it's literally that close, how can you expect them to over turn? If you want to argue as Kelly said to build confidence fine, but likely he would have lost the challenge as was way to close to overturn.

Yeah can see that happening. Maybe standard practice, McD tell one of the trainers to trip him on the sideline , take him out for the year.

And I can accept that argument of challenging for that reason. I doubt it would have ever been over turned but if you're doing it strictly as a confidence builder then OK.

Take off your Bill's colored glasses and watch it then. Was he forward as you say maybe, but there's no way you or anyone who watches it objectively can tell for certain when the knee touched watching the replay. IMO his knee touched while he was extending the ball, but was before the ball was fully extended and at that moment still was short of the sticks when the knee touched. Was it a first down, who knows, but the fact that we're arguing about it and others also commented that it wasn't so clear cut while others say it was , indicates it would have been highly unlikely it ever would have been over turned.
