  1. The wheels on the bus are smoldering.
  2. Funny thing is Josh said some really nice things about Shumar before the 2018 draft, and the media reported it widely.
  3. Good. Make the G-boys prepare for them both. Two distinct styles makes it more difficult to game plan.
  4. Bell last week. Barkley this week. I like the early tests, hopefully setting a tone for the rest of season.
  5. That makes sense. I thought it was the final five minutes of each half. Thank you!
  6. There was criticism on the TV & online about Allen not getting a play off before the two-minute warning. But it seemed to me, even after rewinding the game, that they were operating under the belief that the clock had stopped. Well, Singeltary DID make it out of bounds on the screen play before that. So the clock should have been stopped. But the clock kept running! Maybe I'm seeing things, but it seems to me the refs screwed this one up. Anyone else see this?
  7. Let's get some actual wins that the entire league can see before we expect respect from the national media. Everything is earned.
  8. Listening to Gregg Rosenthal yesterday. He said how remarkable it has been that everyone he talks to who had been around Josh says they just know he's going to be great. Said he hasn't heard anything like it before. He was being complimentary.
  9. Cutting him means the no contract following him. Likely no team was willing to accept the contract he had.
  10. Click the link. The original poster did the right thing providing the link and not stealing the author's work.
  11. If wouldn't be at all surprising if an undrafted rookie is cut. Plus, no need for a third QB on a deep 53. He'll live on the practice squad nicely this season. Did you watch the game pretty closely to see why he "disappeared" last night? Not his fault.
  12. The Colts did play their starting QB. Meanwhile, we didn't play our Pro Bowl safety.
  13. No way the Bills can keep three QBs on the 53. I'm confident Tyree can be kept on the PS without being stolen. Wade looks amazing, but they are going to need to get him a lot more touches in final two PS games before they could possibly consider keeping him on the 53. It is just too damn competitive to make this roster this season. If they put him on the PS, which is very enticing since he'd be a free extra player, I think it is possible he gets grabbed by a team not in the hunt and able to take a flyer with a spot on their 53. The answer to the tough cuts could be trading some away rather than cutting them. Those looking in from the outside are likely good enough to be traded for late-round picks. That's how well Beane and company built depth. I remember when the best players on the team were our punter and kicker. I had no problem with keeping Smoke and Zay in street clothes last night. I'm hoping they lighten Beasley's load the next two weeks. Sweeney is our opening day starter at TE. Most everyone has said an injury to Allen or Morse would likely destroy the season. They are both vital to any success we may have this year, but I also now believe we have depth that could keep us moving should disaster strike.
  14. Playing with the backups? That's going to cause a lot of second guessing in the locker room and the NYC media.
  15. Over and under on passing yards against the NJ Jests?
  16. Mitch came out day after day at camp, do the most the rules allow him to do. I think that's a positive sign, not a sign of impending retirement. It is quite possible he will remain in protocol until the week before the season opener to be safe. As those big hands just wrote, the team is required to not comment in any way on anyone in concussion protocol. Zero pressure is permitted on the player to return.
  17. Bills 27 - Stinkin' Fish 0 Nov 29, 1987 Miami went into the game favored by 1.5 First Miami shutout by any team in five years. Dan Marino 13 of 28 for 165 - 0 - 3 (eventually pulled in the 4thQ) Jim Kelly 15 of 21 for 217 - 2 - 0
  18. I was worried about Oliver's attitude, ego and coach-ability, based on the supposed issues he had with his college coach. Those concerns are long gone for me now.
  19. He should just trade Carr now and move forward with Peterman. Now.
  20. Really, it was abysmal coverage at that. Somehow they managed to put the show's host (Nate) in a spot that he could not see the field from! So they had Sal reporting from the field, but Nate talked over him, asking the same old things over and over, barely stopping every few minutes to get a few words from Sal. Meanwhile, we could hear oohs, cheers and other reactions from the crowd. It was beyond frustrating. Couldn't have been produced any worse. WGR owes its listeners a whole lot better.
