Paup 1995MVP

He got probably close to a dozen targets in the last game of the regular season against the Pats. And looked awful. Hopefully he shows dramatic improvement this season-same with Dalton Kincaid. I don’t get the talk about WR’s playing different positions. It’s all running routes, beating your man, and catching a football. I think Jerry Rice could play inside or outside. It’s really didn’t matter. Unless your a little guy like Cole Beasley, a pro WR should be able to play inside or out and be a force every week. let’s hope Keon becomes that. But Wouldn’t that be something if the 7th round pick Prater became better than Coleman. lol. Similar to a Benford-Elam situation. It could happen. But let’s hope they both become good NFL receivers.

Zay Jones dropped a catchable deep pass for what probably would have been the game winning TD if you recall. Bills offense was trash in 2017.

And you are the expert on Damar Hamlin? All you have to do is watch his play. And you can clearly tell he is not an NFL athlete. He is always slow getting to the party. There is no suddenness or twitchiness to his movements in the slightest. He has a lanky build, which usually does not lend itself to being a good DB. But I am not his position coach or head coach. So I won't be making the decision on if he makes the roster or not. But based off of his performance last year, I would look elsewhere.

What the hell! This is the Ravens. I hate the MF Ravens about as much as any team in the NFL. Can't stand John Harbaugh, and the entire organization. I don't want bad stuff to happen to this individual player. And I honestly have never heard of this kid Washington. But any bad fortune on that team, is fine by me. Can't stand their fans, the city or anything else associated with them. (I did like three things about Baltimore. And that was Cal Ripken Jr. Earl Weaver and Bert Jones-who threw the best deep ball in the history of the modern NFL) But as for this version of the Ravens. Thumbs way down!!

Best players need to start, every day all day. Let’s hope Bishop earns it. And if he can’t, then Forrest and Hancock may get their chance. We all know what Hamlin is. Good guy. Hard worker. But not an NFL athlete. A safety room of Rapp Bishop Forrest and Hancock should hopefully be very good. Those are some very good athleticism numbers. Let’s hope that translates to some real strong play on the field. Bills seem to have done a real good job fortifying their secondary.

Thank you for expounding on what I said. Hamlin’s score seems very mediocre, at best. And Lewis far below that. They are solid football players. But we need better athletes, who are good football players to win at the highest level. Hopefully the new additions in the secondary will provide that. Do you know what the 3 new DB’s RAS scores are? But to your point, it shows how well are coaches can coach DB’s up to at least be competent on the back end for the most part. Although the defensive effort against the Rams last year was god awful. And exposed us for the lack of athleticism we had on the back end. And that was fortified the next week against the Lions.

That's a great summary of our safety play last year. Lets hope Rapp and Bishop are a real good tandem together this coming year. Don't know much about Forrest, but have heard he is athletic and played real well in 2022 when healthy for Washington. As for Hancock, he played and started some for the Nat Champion Buckeyes. There should be a place for him in the defensive rotation sooner than later. Our defense was trash last year. There needs to be a plan to incorporate all 6 players drafted on defense this year into the rotation pretty quickly. The guys in front of them on the D Line and secondary were pretty bad with little to no upside. That has to change. McDermott is a ***** coach if he can not see that. And yes Hamlin was lousy last year. Lacks the basic athleticism to be playing NFL football. Pretty much the same w Cam Lewis. Its a speed game in the modern NFL. The old time safety's like David Fulcher (remember him from Cincinnati) are bigger then many LB's in today's game. We need to keep up with better athleticism.

You are missing out. College football is tremendous. Why do you even care about NIL?

Noone is happy that Pearsall was shot. A lot of us think that San Fran is a ***** hole sess pool of a city, because of the leaders and the politics that have pervaded the area, as well as many other areas in this once great country. If you don't understand that, then wake up and start figuring things out.

All good teams are loaded with good players. The Rams had Faulk, Holt, Bruce and the slot receiver Aziz something. And even Ricky Proehl who was a good receiver. I don't remember their defense very well. But I am sure they were good. That should not diminish how good Kurt Warner was. He threw a sweet ball effortlessly. And Dick Vermeil was a very good coach. The Rams-Titans Super Bowl was great.

Warner was tremendous throughout his career. He led the Cardinals to the Super Bowl and almost beat an excellent Steelers team. He couldn't run, but was tough smart a great leader and had tremendous accuracy. I loved watching him play. An all time great. And don't forget when he played, the hits on QB's were much more violent. Toughness was always a huge quality needed to be a top QB. Now its not even discussed. Seems weird today. But violence in the NFL was actually exulted and encouraged back in the day.

What are you Trubisky's agent?!! The guy is terrible. And really doesn't belong in the NFL any longer. Mike White has a lot more upside. But lets hope Josh just keeps rolling along being the best baller QB in the NFL.

Are you that upset because they didn't keep Hardy? He flashed some ability. But we are loaded at corner. I would have kept McKitty over Toohill. He had some juice catching and with YAC. I would have also tried to keep Dion Cain. He had some burst also. What about D Tackle? Do you like Carter and Austin Johnson backing up Oliver and Jones? Can those two really contribute? Rousseau is the key to the d line. Needs to be an unstoppable force. Otherwise pretty meh. Toohill or not.

People talk about Jonathan like he's the next Bruce or at least Jerry Hughes. He looks more like a Shaq Lawson type with less get up. The coaches watch these guys every day in practice. They know who they want from the start of training camp. For what its worth I liked Branson Dean. Thought he made a whole lot of plays against the Panthers. And I liked Deon Cain. But they were basically just filling space until cut down day. Have to trust McBeane that they know what they are doing.

Send Trubisky packing. He is absolute trash. Anyone who likes his game should be banned from NFL fandom. Watch Anthony Brown on Saturday. The kid was excellent at Oregon. He can run, has a good arm and can make plays. If he plays well against the Panthers, there is your backup.

Good points. They watch their guys day in and day out on the practice field. I think they really like Hollins Coleman Shakir (who could be a top 10 receiver in the league this year.) and Samuel. And probably like Shavers and Hamler (if he can stay healthy also) too. And maybe MVS comes back quickly also. The Bill have been one of the top teams in the league pretty much since 2019. I think on the whole management has done an excellent job. The Eagles have a bunch of receivers. But a QB who can't really get them the ball. And a defense that absolutely collapsed last year. And a coaching staff pretty much in disarray. Have the fans lost their minds like many on here have?

What's not bright? You don't like the roster or the coaching staff? I loved what I saw out of the defense and the running game against Pittsburgh. And with Josh throwing it around the yard, and receivers like Shakir Samuel Kincaid Coleman Hollins, etc I am very excited. I also love our corners. Aggressive and twitchy. This is going to be a fun season. I have been following the Bills since 1976. We had some ***** teams, ***** rosters and ***** coaches back in parts of the 70's 80's and the god awful draught years. This is heaven compared to that. We have a great chance to win every week we line up with Josh Allen at QB. What more do you want then that Einstein? And we got rid of an overpaid malcontent whose game fell off a cliff the second half of last season. That's reason to feel chipper right there. I know I was when we got a 2nd for Mr Prima Donna. Good god. I love the game of football. Have since I was 8 years old. My older son played from when he was 6 in the pee wee leagues outside of Atlanta through middle school, where his team went undefeated two years in a row in a 32 team very competitive league, through HS where his team played in the state championship in Georgia for 7A football at the Georgia Dome two years in a row, through college at Georgia Southern for 4 years and then pulled his hammy at his pro day a year and a half ago. And never got his shot in the pros. (But dam well should have) And my younger son is a diehard Michigan fan like myself. Even my daughter is a big football fan living on the west coast. We all love the Bills. Watch them every week on the ticket from all over America. My mother who lives in Toronto had season tickets with her boyfriend through 2017, when he got too old to make the trip every week. But she watches them every week still. And so do my brothers who live on the West Coast. We all love the team. And are dam well excited for this season. We have a great organization. Great management. And great coaching. Have we won the bowl yet? No. But we are in the mix every dam year. And should certainly be this year as well. I am pumped after every win. And I see a lot of Bills fans in S Florida where I live a good bit of the time. And every single one of them is pumped about the Bills, all the time. This board does something to people. Its not good. But its what it is. Been posting on here since 2007. My first post was about the Willis McGahee trade to the Ravens. (don't remember it now. But I know we got good value for Willis. And I always liked his game. Shame about the injury in the Nat Championship game against the Buckeyes. He probably would have been an all timer. But he made the best out of tough situation. And still had a solid career) I remember when the Dean was posting on here all the time. Is he still even alive? Just one fans perspective is all..

You are just miserable man. We will be fine come the regular season. You think Josh Allen is crying? Give him 5 practice squad WR’s and a good O line and he will still carve everyone up. We have Shakir Kincaid Knox Hollins Coleman and some good RB’s. If the O line is stout we aren’t losing many games (And Samuel could very well be 100% opening day) Get a grip. You come off like a whiny baby B word. And you call yourself a Bills fan?!!

Hollins isn’t bad. And Coleman will be good once he gets comfortable in the NFL. Put Shakir outside if we have to. He may very well turn into a top ten WR in the league this year. He is super twitchy with great hands.

Did you watch Sam Howell play all last season? Is he great, no. Does he have ability and moxie to play well for a short period? Certainly. He plays like Fitzie used to. Can make a lot of plays and then can make some mistakes. Trubisky has no upside anymore. It’s weak that he’s on our team. Hopefully not for long. And I would take Jarrett Stidham over Trubisky also. And certainly Ryan Tannehill. Bills are short sighted not drafting a guy w some upside like a Joe Milton. Instead we keep drafting OT’s in the later rounds who aren’t making any NFL team’s roster in the late rounds.

They drafted Van Road Grader who will be starting soon enough. a lot of people on this board overthink everything!! Did you read the reports on the joint practice yesterday? We manhandled the Steelers on both sides of the ball. Shakir is on fire as was the rest of the offense. Our top 4 corners are as good as any in the league. And Hardy sounds like a player also. We have plenty of good players. Josh Allen isn’t going to all of a sudden suck. I see 11-12 wins minimum. Excited about this team. You mention Morse. I liked him. But people always complained that he wasn’t stout enough in the middle. Because we haven’t won a Super Bowl half the people on here hate McDermott and the organization. It’s too much. Go root for the Commanders or the Giants then.

Maybe there is too much working out. Muscles get too tight with too much torque on the joints. Causes lots of strains and sprains, pulled muscles, etc type stuff to hamstrings, achilles. You name it. These guys are young. They shouldn't always be so nicked up. You can be strong without having to be so tight. You can go and lift in the offseason and do some jogging. But dam these guys should let their bodies rest. Eat drink smoke some weed and relax. Personal training is the biggest waste of money industry ever invented.

I have lived in Atlanta for many years too. I went to the final Falcons game at Fulton County Stadium way back in 1991. I am not really much of a fan of Atlanta sports teams. But the Falcons are my favorite of them. (I find baseball so dull. And haven't rooted for the Braves since the great teams of the early 90's led by my favorite pitcher of all time Greg Maddux. And that was a long time ago.) Hopefully with Kirk Cousins there will be a little excitement surrounding the team this year. And yes College Football is king in the deep south.

Doesn't look ready? Its not rocket science. See ball carrier, run towards him and knock him down. In pass coverage cover backs flaring out of the backfield, or TE's in the middle of the field. Occasionally rush the passer. It really should not be as hard as McDermott wants to make it playing defense. Williams is an excellent athlete. Play to his strengths.

He will be decent in obscurity for a couple years, and then retire. Legend in his own mind like most of these guys who aren't happy with their contracts. The Falcons are about as irrelevant a team right now that the NFL has to offer. And they are pretty much that in Atlanta as well.
