Albany,n.y.

I think it's ridiculous to have Foles & Dalton on the team. Too much $ for a 3rd stringer & if Fields is their 3rd stringer they are in a lot of trouble. Between Foles & Dalton, whoever has less guaranteed money has to go.

In 1986 the Jets were 10-1 & Maguire was on the NBC pregame show & declared the Jets wouldn't win another game that season. They lost their final 5 games, but eventually won their wild card game before losing in the next round. Every week during the season Maguire got in an I told you so as the Jets kept losing to end the season 10-6.

Houston shouldn't. They drafted a QB with their 1st pick (round 3) in the 2021 draft. Philadelphia spent a 2nd on Hurts last year & signed Flacco as the backup. The other 2 teams depend on where they draft next year because neither needs Trubisky this year & won't trade for a guy who has no contract for next season & aren't about to sign him to a long term deal. A team trading a 2nd is either a Super Bowl contender whose QB went down or a team that is trading for a long term answer. The Bills certainly aren't going to help another Super Bowl contender.

Nope. A team cannot trade a free agent unless they franchise or transition him & then the tag immediately is added to their cap & they can't go over the cap. So they would have to have the extra cap $ before tagging the player & then until they trade him it ties their hands in free agency. It's better to hope he signs for big $ elsewhere and you can get a comp pick, but if you sign enough free agents you won't even get a comp pick.

Hypothetical questions that aren't realistic, really aren't legitimate questions. I can pose a question like this: If Gisele leaves Brady do you think I have a chance? The question is something only Lloyd Christmas would ask. Beane clearly stated that Trubisky is here for 2021 when he signed. His response would be "I already stated when we signed him he's here for the entire season" while he'd be thinking : What's wrong with you for asking such a stupid question, wasn't I clear enough when I said he's here for the season?

Not according to what Sal said a week or 2 ago. The IR rules are if you put a player on IR before the 53 man roster cut down date he's out for the season. You have to wait until after 53 is established. The way teams get around it is they release a veteran who is not subject to waivers with an agreement to re-sign him. Then they IR the injured guy and bring back the vet who is waived.

It looks like there are plenty of seats available right from the team. Click on the link. If it says standard adult it's at face value +fees. I chose the fees included option but if it went back to before fees just change the filter in the upper right hand column. If the tickets say verified resale, they are resale (obviously). On the stadium diagram, click on each section & see what's available. https://www.ticketmaster.com/event/22005A9BCD71A731?brand=jaguars&artistid=805954&wt.mc_id=NFL_TEAM_JAC_SINGLE_GAME_TICKETS_PG_LINK_GAME6&utm_source=NFL.com&utm_medium=client&utm_campaign=NFL_TEAM_JAC&utm_content=SINGLE_GAME_TICKETS_PG_LINK_GAME6

Not only did we have some of the worst coaches who had to be fired, but then the only 2 who had winning seasons during the drought both quit. Here's some of the greatest hits: Gregg Williams or one of his staff accepts a penalty that guarantees a loss against Houston while London Fletcher is waiving his hands wildly on the field to decline the penalty because London realizes the extra down means Houston can run out the clock. I left the stadium saying if I owned the team Gregg would have been fired on the spot. Dick Jauron gets hired after being interim coach in Detroit in spite of the fact the Lions didn't think he was good enough to hire as coach the next season and let him go. After a few mediocre years he finally gets fired-after his extension. I'll never understand the love around here for Chan Gailey. He was hired after being fired by KC as their OC in preseason the prior season but since nobody wanted to coach the Bills he ended up here. Then he wins 33% of his games & some people think he's the greatest coach of the drought years. The time he punted from the opponent's 34 yardline because he was afraid to try a 51 yard field goal was the end for me. Finally, the biggest blowhard to create a windstorm in Buffalo-Rex Ryan. His tenure was a total clown show made even worse when he hired his brother in an attempted remake of Dumb & Dumber.

One of the biggest problems was the constant turnover of GMs, scouts, coaching staffs & schemes. Best examples: Rex Ryan comes in & changes the D, so the Bills draft guys to fit his scheme. Ryan is replaced & some of the guys that fit his scheme are worthless to McDermott. Reggie Ragland was drafted for a Ryan D and was totally out of place in McDermott' s D. So the guy they traded up for 1 year earlier in the 2nd round is dumped for 4th round pick 2 years down the line. Then going back a few years Chan Gailey comes in & along with Buddy Nix decides that they don't like Marshawn Lynch so they draft Spiller in the 1st round & totally devalue Lynch's trade value. They got a 2011 4th (Chris Hairston) & a 2012 5th (Tank Carder who they cut as a rookie). There was also stuff like drafting CBs in the 1st & letting them get away & then having to play whack a mole using more 1st round picks on CBs. Remember Winfield, Clements, Gilmore were all 1st rounders who were drafted with the idea that the team's best corner would be leaving in a year or 2. Even Tre White was drafted to replace Gilmore. In the days of a new head coach every 2 to 3 years, the team had no chance to have any stability.

Memories of Fat Mike Williams.

There's no such thing as an early round QB getting a raw deal in the NFL. Every time I see someone say this I know the player didn't meet the person's expectations and they continue to make excuses for the guy. The reason why I feel this way is that the coaches see these guys just about every day in practice. It doesn't take that long to realize the guy doesn't have it. These bad QBs become coach killers if the coach doesn't get him off the field. I can't think of any 1st round QBs who busted with their 1st team & came back to have a good career. The closest one I can find is Kerry Collins who got cut because he drank too much & cleaned himself up before having a decent career. When it's due to on the field, they never come back, no matter how many teams try to revive their corpse. Now some may want to say Jim Plunkett, but he didn't fail with NE, he got traded for multiple high draft picks & got cut later in SF before reviving his career in Oakland. We've heard it before around here, at least three times before: 1) I'm including Rob because he was traded for a 1st rounder even though the Bills were his 2nd team. When Flutie beat out Rob Johnson I'll admit I felt Wade was stymieing Rob's development & Rob was getting a raw deal. I hadn't learned yet that the coaches wanted to win with the guy who showed them more all week long & on Sundays. I wasn't the only one who didn't want Flutie and I though Rob got screwed. By the time Gregg & staff had enough of Rob I knew that if 2 coaches don't want a guy, it's the guy, not the coach. 2) When JP got yanked for Kelly Holcomb, Mularkey had to because the players knew JP wasn't ready to start & he would have had a mutiny on his hands if he kept JP in there. Yet people around here were complaining that Mularkey was ruining JP & he was getting a raw deal. It didn't take Dick Jauron long to figure out JP wasn't the answer and for a while it looked like Trent Edwards was the answer, but same as before, it didn't take Chan very long to dump Trent. Once again, a failure with 2 coaches. At least nobody complained Edwards "Captain Checkdown" was screwed over by the Bills. I still remember after JP became a free agent there were still posts warning us that JP would sign with another team & come back to haunt us. Then he had to go to the UFL & the JP fanboys were sure he'd get better coaching & make an NFL comeback. 3) EJ Manuel. It didn't take long for Marrone to realize EJ was a dud. His hands were pretty tied EJ's rookie year, with his only competition being Thad Lewis & Jeff Tuel. Then look at EJ's year 2. Marrone, who at the time was more interested in winning & building his resume than banging his head against the wall trying to develop his former 1st round bust. So pretty soon Orton was in & EJ was on the bench. Some were saying EJ got a raw deal, yet once again he failed the 2 coach test when Rex Ryan came in & brought in Tyrod who beat EJ out So, if anyone still thinks Rosen got a raw deal, he's failed with 4 coaches, double my 2 coach rule. The only ones who got a raw deal were the Cardinals & Dolphins who lost miliions paying Rosen.

298 miles. In 1977 I lived 2 miles north of the stadium, on Lakeview Ave right off Abbott Rd. I walked to the 1st 2 home games & other times I'd go to a laundromat in Hamburg on Sundays & drive right by the mostly empty Rich Stadium & listen to the game on the radio as I did my laundry. It was a bad year for Bills fans.

I still say all the starters. Nowhere in the OP did he say that there has to be a limit of 4. Just because he had 4 the others listed 4, doesn't mean there's a limit. I believe in thinking outside the box & I'm going 21 others in the box.

Here's what I posted on July 25, 2018 on Facebook: July 25, 2018 Shared with Your friends Future Super Bowl MVP signed today: NFL.COM Buffalo Bills sign seventh-overall pick Josh Allen The Buffalo Bills report for training camp Wednesday with their quarterback of the future under contract. The Bills signed first-round pick Josh Allen to a contract, the team announced.

All the starters, no need to have just 4.

When I was living in Long Island (Northport, then Oakdale) in the 1980s I lived far enough away from NJ (where there was a weak station on 930 AM) that at night I used to be able to listen to WBEN at night, although it was through a lot of static. I used to listen often, especially on Monday night when they had the coach's show. I didn't get to see a lot of Bills games on TV except when they played the Giants or Jets. One time the Bills were playing NE & the game was on in Connecticut. I went to a friends house closer to Connecticut & we had to hook an antenna up to a hockey stick out on his porch to see the game. I went to Bills @ Jets games in 1985, 86 & 87. When the Bills played the Eagles I used to go to Philadelphia for the games, They played at the Vet in 1985 & 1987. For the 1987 game I found out I could get Eagles tickets at the mall in Massapequa. Since the 1987 game was 2 days after Christmas & I couldn't get anyone else to go & I went alone. The Bills ran for the bus that game with only Bennett showing up on the field. Shortly after the Philly game I moved to Albany and was able to get a lot more coverage & go to more Bills games. A couple of times in 1988 the game was on TV in Utica & not in Albany & I drove west with a little battery TV & watched the game in my car. The next year I discovered places that had satellites & would go there to watch games I didn't go to. Since then the only times I've missed watching the game on either TV or at the game (I now only go to about 2 games a year, but I had seasons from 1990-2011) was when I was at another NFL game or in the hospital.

It wouldn't be Allen's Heroes. Kelly's Heroes made sense because of the movie with the same title. If they want to follow in Kelly's footsteps, it needs to be Allen's Army.

Smerlas was one of the bad locker room guys that caused problems for the Bickering Bills. It was his off the field nonsense that caused Marv to want him off the team. Now the Bills said they didn't want to lose him when they exposed him to Plan B free agency, but that really wasn't true otherwise he wouldn't have been on Plan B to begin with.

Franchise RB: Elliott or Henry.

Actually, Rosen has it better than just about all the other guys who will get cut. Most of your 2nd paragraph shows why. Add to that the millions of dollars he's already banked, while the undrafted guy who gets cut is jobless & broke. Also many of those cut do not have a degree (his is in economics making his options in the business world almost endless). Not bad for a 24 year old: Rich, good degree, great college career at a Division 1 college. Pretty good resume to get a foot in the door at a large company or if he has a special interest, enough money to try to start his own business. He just has to stop trying to be a pro football player & get on with his life. Maybe he should try going back to tennis if he can't get rid of the pro athlete bug.

Rosen was worse than just the 9 teams thing. Here's what he saide before that: I was pretty pissed off. I felt 1,2,& 3 went by and it just kind of went into a blur after that. I was really angry teams were passing on me and I was honestly expecting to get picked at some point and have to fake a smile and go up and pretend to be happy, but for some reason when I was picked all that went away and it went to straight excitement relief.

1) More proof QB stats, especially ratings are worthless in comparing QBs. 2) Arizona had a number of coaches they could have hired. I'm sure they talked it over with each candidate what to do with Rosen. They chose Kingsbury because he was the one who didn't want Rosen & said Murray fit his offense. Once Kingsbury was named coach the decision on Murray was made, there was nothing undecided by the time Kingsbury was hired. I guess the smokescreen worked on you because if they were in any way not sure they wanted to drop Rosen, they would have hired a coach with a more conventional offense that gave Rosen a chance. I don't buy for a second they would have kept Rosen if they had the 2nd pick, because the next 2 teams were not in the QB market & if they had beaten out the Cards for the top pick would have taken Nick Bosa who went 2nd. So at #2 Murray would have been on the board. 3) He got enough reps in 2019 in Miami & sucked both in practice & in the games they let him start over Fitzpatrick. He was 1 or 1A with Miami in 2019, so that goes down the drain. SF should have cut him either the day they signed Sudfeld or right after they drafted Lance. However, by then the pickings were already slim amomg teams left who would even give him a chance. If he's on anything other than a practice squad by September, I'll be shocked. There's a very good chance his only chance is in another league either the CFL, the XFL or the Spring League where Ryan Mallett ended up and they don't even pay their players any salaries.

Why do you think his teams draft QBs in the next draft after he shows up? In Arizona, he had a bad rookie year and based on what they saw on Sundays and in practice the team realized quickly the had drafted a bust & he was dealt after his rookie year because Arizona was smart enough to realize they could still salvage something for him before he was totally exposed. New coach Kingsbury was not going to risk his coaching career on Josh Rosen after watching the film on him & talking with team management about Rosen's rookie year. When he got to Miami he lost the starting job to Fitz. They came in on an equal footing and Rosen failed when he played. So, the Dolphins realizing that he wasn't the answer drafted Tua a year AFTER acquiring Rosen. Then when he was waived by Miami after nobody would even give them a 7th rounder & pick up his rookie contract, he couldn't find 1 team to sign him to their 53 man roster and had to sign on as a practice squad player with Tampa. Then SF got a slew of QB injuries and signed Rosen off Tampa's practice squad. The surprising thing is why SF bothered to re-sign Rosen. My guess is at the time SF signed Rosen in February the only other QB on the roster was Jimmy Garoppolo, who they were thinking of trading if they could get a decent return (especially by NE before they drafted Jones) and viewed him as a camp body. Then in March they make the deal for the #3 pick, obviously to draft a QB & then in early April before the draft they signed Nate Sudfeld, even giving him a signing bonus as opposed to Rosen who got nothing to sign for 2021. When they didn't trade Jimmy G Rosen's fate was almost sealed, but they wanted to see what they had before releasing him. Then after he has a very mediocre camp, he looks pretty bad in the 1st exhibition game throwing a very inopportune pick deep in KC territory with nobody close to the CB who caught the ball. That INT sealed his almost sealed fate at that point. Bottom line: If Rosen had shown even 1 team of the 4 he was on any promise, they wouldn't have viewed him as an afterthought & drafted a QB in the very next draft. Even Tampa, where he was a practice squad player didn't make any attempt to keep him when SF called him last year & then drafted Kyle Trask in the 2nd round.

Mike Glennon might have a case that he's better than Geno & Matt Barkley is still in the league. It wasn't that hard to figure out that 2013 was a dud class BEFORE the draft. The only ones who didn't figure that out were Nix & Whaley.
