This is the annual 4th preseason game a$$ whooping by Detroit. Happens almost every year. Not a big deal but a bit annoying to see their scrubs have their way with our scrubs every August.

It's easy for Gaughan to predict mediocrity. It's the safe route and probably 90% chance he's right based on history. A few good bounces and maybe some penalties that go our way for once, the Bills could finish 10-6.

I am bombarded by local DC/Balt sports talk all the time. From the Ravens perspective, they expect to be 1-0 after their home opener. They definitely expect a bounce back year. Maybe their O doesn't have the recognizable names other than Flacco, but they've moved the ball well in preseason. But then again, Kamar Aiken (ex-Bills player) is one of their better WR's so they aren't stacked. I'm worried about the Ravens D. They look to play very physical and they will be a tough group for Tyrod & Co. to move the ball against, especially with crowd noise. I see a very close, low scoring game...something like 17-14, 20-17 type final. No idea who will win but I'll be fairly impressed if the Bills come out of there 1-0. That would be a good win for sure.

Looking forward to watching UB's home opener Friday. And Tyree Jackson looks like the real deal. We shall see. A physical specimen at QB with speed, a good arm and accuracy is not something you see every year at UB. It will be interesting to watch his pocket presence and how he handles things. I understand the Senior Rohach will start but if Jackson comes in and does well he may not leave the field.

Already got my $50/month credit a few weeks ago for calling about ST. Called again yesterday to let them know our $5.99 PPV movie rental Sat night was buffering the whole time and was terrible to watch like that. Of course they credited the movie.. I said thanks. Out of the blue, the rep asked if I had Sunday Ticket Max. I said yes, and he offered me $9 discount off the price per month. I was like "Okay", like i had never heard of such a wonderful thing as a discount. Then he started offering me HD Receiver credit and some other credits that i know have expired recently... All this without me even asking?!? I love Directv...

I hear ya. The Bills have hundreds of hours of tape on Brady and still can't stop him. It's about talent and matchups. The book is pretty much written about how to stop Tyrod. Big rush up the middle and contain the outside...make him throw under duress in the pocket...off his back foot, etc.. He will kill you if he's allowed to roll and throw on the run (or take off and run).

I don't know man.. I thought the Ravens have looked fairly good this preseason despite a few injuries. Their starting D was very physical and dominated Detroit easily. The fact Harbaugh and his staff know Tyrod so well worries me a bit. It's Baltimore's home opener and it's a tough stadium to play in, very noisy. Count me as one who will be impressed if the Bills go in there and come away with a win. I'll be there rooting em on.

Ravens gonna be a handful opening day. Their first team looked good tonight and very physical on D. Ben Watson tore his Achilles and is done for season. Also their rookie RB who looked good sprained his knee.

Joe Theismamn on the Skins broadcast was lukewarm on EJ. Says he throws too often up the middle to guys standing still. Doesn't target guys on the move. Says Redskins approach is much different in that regard. Tyrod is much better at hitting dudes in stride.

RBs aren't disposable but it's the most dime a dozen position you can find in the NFL. Guys like Shady are special with their explosiveness... Karlos? His best NFL days might be behind him already. I like Gillislee but cmon, he replaceable

Makes me thrilled we drafted EJ instead of that guy. And poor EJ may give way to Cardale at some point

Hey, EJ is improving on those little corner end zone passes

This game should be like 21 or 24-0. If this were regular season I'd be stomping around punching the walls. Thankfully it's not

Always weird that RB crossing the plain by an inch in mid air then fumbling when landing out of bounds is a TD, but that Powell thing is not a catch

Don't get why Herron is even playing. Would rather see the rookie or Wilder

Tyrod really impressing me. Sees the field well, feels the rush, making good decisions

Cmon Bush. These guys aren't helping Tyrod too much out there. Should be 7-0 and that was a perfect throw to Bush

At least Reggie looks confident and sure handed fielding punts. That's half the battle

Lo Alexander baby. He's a Pro

If Clay turns on the jets and scores, don't have to worry about Felton fumbling. I hope in the regular season the O can be a little more creative than plowing a RB up the middle on 2nd and 10. Just makes it 3rd and 8-10 every time

Good stop. I thought Eli had an easy first down underneath but he chose to go deep and missed it.

Terrible first series for the O. Defense has Giants 3rd and 10 and of course Eli shreds the D to Odell for 23

meanwhile, to pull away from Lochte and his idiocy for a minute, Jenn Suhr is not getting any healthier. She woke up coughing up blood according to her husband/coach. They still want to try and compete tonight in the pole vault. From personal experience she needs to be careful with this. A family member of mine contracted an infection in South America last year. Came back home so sick he was hospitalized for 10 days..his kidneys and Liver were close to shutting down. If she is that sick for 8 days, they should get her home and closely looked at. https://twitter.com/TBNSports/status/766692910247055364?lang=en

Weird story. I saw something online speculating that a meeting with hookers/transgender went bad. this may have been their cover story due to embarrassment. seems plausible when you think 4 guys had to agree to the same story (if lying). The gun part may be real, but the circumstances not. hopefully we will find out

Everytime i see Sammy make an acrobatic catch in practice, I think they should pull him out and put bubble wrap around him. Unwrap him for Sept. 11. I see no reason why they need to risk injury with our premier players. Yes, he could always use a little chemistry with Tyrod but do it off to the side i suppose. I'm worried Sammy is one of those guys that will tweak or pull something over a no-nothing practice. He has absolutely nothing to prove in practice. Just be healthy for game 1.
