Bill Barnwell just wrote a long and very good article on espn.com about the McDaniel/Ziegler regime. Summary: If it weren’t for their bad decisions, they wouldn’t have made any at all…the team is in deep trouble and it will take years to dig out. May be forced to trade Maxx Crosby this offseason just to add draft capital in order to rebuild.
Jimmy G’s days as a starting QB in the NFL are over after this year. He’s been badly exposed and of course can’t stay healthy. I suspect he will hang on for a few more years as a backup because he seems to be a good guy and very popular in the locker room.
The Bills have played very poorly against the Jets the last two years. I can almost guaranty it will be a close game when they come to Buffalo in a few weeks.
Bengals just look like a bad matchup for the Bills. I can’t imagine what Higgins and Chase might do to this defense if we aren’t able to get a lot pressure on Burrow …Bills best chance is to stick with the no-huddle and try to outscore them, which won’t be easy because the Bengals defense is no joke. This team owned us last year and I’m not sure I see any reason to think it will be different this year.
Does NFL Network run any content on Sunday nights, or just commercials? I’ve been checking constantly over the past 45 minutes and as far as I can tell, they run only ads while the Sunday night game is on. What a joke.
