So what i going on with Cam Newton?
He went down on what seemed a harmless play but got up limping, looks like they were messaging him left foot on the sidelines and he looked a littler dejected/pissed a minute later the showed him walking to the locker room with the trainers, no other word yet
-
Cams heading to the locker room, looks like his left foot.

I have never felt that officiating was very objective when it came to certain teams and I have my theories in regards to that - after all the NFL is first and foremost an entertainment business.
That being said, there is some truth to the fact that teams with poor personnel commit more noticeable penalties. Last year our offensive line was atrocious. You had Dawkins with his every-game brain-fart false starts, you had other linemen clearly over-matched and out of position holding defenders. It was quite often a train wreck on that side of the ball.
The influx of veteran talent on the o-line will go a long way to negating a bulk of our penalties. Savvy vets no how to play the game in a way that minimizes those noticeable penalties. Also, I think the coaching of the o-line has improved and Josh's command of the huddle - we should see this pay off this year.
My thoughts exactly, I think you said it better and more of what I was eluding to, we all look for signs of improvement this time of year, and I think the reduction of dumb penalties is a good sign.

I could look this up but I'm throwing it out to you all, I didn't watch the Colts game, but it seems after two preseason games the penalties seem to have been somewhat held to a minimum, I think I've seen Spain flagged a couple times and we're only half way through the preseason, but it seems to me the talent improvements and the coaching is showing through. Thoughts.....

Stay healthy
More chemistry between Josh and his new receivers
Oliver having a strong game.
Hope I don't burn the steaks I'm grilling tonight.
Plus the game is on locally in the Virginia Beach area so I hope I don't get too wound up watching a preseason game.

We will have 38 year old Luke Kuechly backing up Edmunds at MLB after the Panthers cut him to save $. He will be in training for his future coaching role with the Bills while providing “locker room leadership” and veteran knowledge, a “pros pro” according to Brandon Beane. He won’t realize he signed his life away to commit to The Process up north because he was coming off of his ninth concussion, but rumor is he always dreamed of living somewhere that didn’t schedule their fandom around nascar.
And I, for one, would still be O.K. with that signing!

On a separate note what’s up with the NFL Network? With the delay between the Giants and Jets, they’ve been showing highlights of other games. Evidently they have zero interest discussing the Bills and Colt!
They did show our first TD but nothing after that
-
The Bills will be up 44-0 at halftime, but due to injuries to their back up QBs and Luck not dressing, the Colts head coach suits up and plays the second half and engineers the greatest comeback in preseason history.

I'm actually surprised there wasn't more shuffling of players than there were at camp so far (injuries aside) seems Dawkins and Spain are locked on the left, Morse when healthy at center and just some experimenting on the right side. Hoping it helps build some continuity earlier rather than later.
-
Might not be a bad idea to have our scouts looking hard at stud centers at the college level this year. Never too early to get ready for the next draft, even though well be picking 32nd.

Born and raised in Cheektowaga, but after 30 years in the Navy wound up retiring in Virginia Beach, still try to make it up there for a game when I can.
-
A little early to be locking down the starters, but no sense waiting the two months until training camp....?
-
As a Biills fan that's a reason to be optimistic, as a human being it's encouraging that the young man seems to be getting his life in order.

I remember Keith made some silly comment on his IG when he was released. He said something like when the Titans play the Bills “I will put stamp on it.” Huh!?!?!? What the hell was that supposed to mean?
I was told it was an insult and do wonder if he had to apologize to Brandon Beane before he resigned
My guess would be the FO is still carrying a grudge, and that we signed him just to cut him again, then.beat him to IG to talk smack

This reasoned and patient perspective takes away the fun over reactions that make message boards so much fun this time of year. Please refrain from this destructive behavior.
I couldn't agree more! I just went on eBay and sold my Allen jersey!

I never met the guy, but my daughter knew him when they were both at JMU and said he was a really nice guy, I thought it was cool when the Bills drafted him
-
As much as I'm glad this writer is spending his time constructively as opposed to hanging out on a street corner, I think I'll just wait and see how the season actually plays out.

He was there for the first day, before they actully took the field and the press was there in force. Once the cameras packed up and left he disappeared. Classic team player.

We did not address our lack of depth at long snapper.

Or they don't want to give up compensation and cap space for Rudolph and would rather take the risk with what they have.
At some point parting ways with future draft picks for established veterans isn't a bad idea, IMO..... especially when you need to see results on the field.
From what I read on PFT today, Randolph is in neogtiations with the Vikes on a longer term spread the payment out deal, although it said they are still far apart and may not actually reach a deal, the Vikes may not be actively shopping him until the talks fall through.

He had to build TRUST.
Get in sync with
the same will apply this season
hopefully this can be worked on in camp and PS
At least he will get first team reps this year and not start 3rd on the depth chart with a rotation, that plus a better chance our receivers in camp will still be on the team in December should help alot.

Has anyone else made a tackle besides Edmunds? And why is he still in?
