  1. Yeah put the starting safety back there to return punts that's a good plan until he gets hurt.
  2. Rapoport: #Bills WR Jordan Matthews (broken thumb) is expected to play today with a special glove vs. #Bucs, sources say. 2 wks earlier then expected.
  3. I would look at it another way. Until the end of the TV contracts, that money is guaranteed. Every year they're bringing in $187.5 million from the TV deals, plus a fluid amount on top of that from licensing and merchandise. From your article, last year it was 187.5 + 56.5. With a $167 million salary cap, the TV money along with the licensing and merchandise money likely covers their entire football budget, including player and staff salaries, travel for road games, travel for scouts, etc. The money they bring in from tickets covers everything else. The business operations (ticket sales, advertising, chefs, utilities, facility support staff, etc.) and whatever is left from that is profit. THAT is why they are worried about fans staying home. Butts in the seats are the way that teams make a profit after paying for all the day to day operations.
  4. You're hilariously uninformed if you really think your ticket money pays the salary of the players. TV money pays the players. Your ticket money probably doesn't even pay for one kid working a concession stand
  5. Dawkins struggled at RT all through camp because he hasn't played there before and was having a tough time learning to mirror his movements from LT to RT but by all means throw him in cold!
  6. Hopefully McDermott learned whatever it is that Andy Reid does during the bye week to make his teams unstoppable
  7. The thing with an AC joint injury to the throwing shoulder is it could only take one hit next week to make it worse. Something to watch to be sure
  8. Not necessarily. The court didn't rule on the merits of Elliott's team's case. They simply ruled that they were wrong to file in Texas before the arbitrator issued his decision. They can now re-file in Texas or file in NYC.
  9. No, I don't, but I also don't want to watch an offense consisting of Zay Jones, Kaelin Clay, Andre Holmes, Brandon Tate, Nick O'Leary and Logan Thomas for the next 3-5 weeks if there are better options out there. Signing a free agent at this point of the season costs nothing but a negligible amount of cap space.
  10. Shut up and drink the kool aid. The one thing many fans who don't take time to digest the game.further will do after a loss is blame the QB.
  11. When you have McCoy, a rookie receiver and a bunch of guys out there at skill positions it's pretty hard to throw too.
  12. Bank it: Matthews Humber Ducasse Lee Washington Banyard Last one will be Gaines or Wright most likely. If they both suit up, maybe Shamarko Thomas.
  13. BBFS...Buffalo (or Battered) Bills Fan Syndrome?
  14. It's the pumpkins thing. My thoughts have gone back and forth between the two camps all week and it's because deep down, I know that I expect the Bills to let me down, because they always do in games like this. The optimistic side of me is saying "They looked good against the Browns, but it's only the Browns. They looked good for the first half against the Packers, but they also came out with a "new look" offense that the Pack didn't have film on. Once halftime came and Capers made adjustments, they looked pretty bad again (125 yards, 3 pts after the half)" The pessimistic side of me is saying "Yeah but these are the games the Bills always lose. When you think there's good matchups (Bills DL vs Bengals OL, Bills run O vs Bengals run D) and they don't exploit them and they crap the bed."
  15. If the Bills can establish the run game on offense, and on defense are able to stay disciplined and keep AJ Green contained, they will win this game. Similar game to the Panthers incoming IMO. Defensive, field position battle. Likely under 35 total points, but I wouldn't be surprised by under 30.
  16. Not over Packers/Steelers. Those are two huge national fanbases
  17. Week 17, they flex the game with the biggest playoff implications to Sunday night. No MNF that week.
  18. That's stealing content man. Just pay the $3. We may not agree with their opinions all the time but the TBN sports crew has no paycheck if some joker is taking their content and sharing it with the masses for free.
  19. 2. Lazor knows the OL sucks now and is running a quick strike dink and dunk scheme.
  20. I'm sipping the Kool Aid as if it were a fine wine, not downing it like a cold brew in the Ralph parking lot at 12:30, know what I mean? Talk to me again after game 8. It's possible, but there's too much football to go for me to say this is the year
  21. Oh I guess after getting kicked in the nuts by this team after a hot start a few times during the drought, I'm supposed to just say PLEASE SIR CAN I HAVE SOME MORE and blindly assume this is the slump buster with 12 games to go
