That just adds to the funniness
How about "Belichek stole my other sign!". But I think I have seen it before on game day.

Tom Brady will try to "Deflate" the Buffalo fan base. He is not done with deflating things.
-
for the life of me.. i can't understand why DBs aren't coached to do the following in a short field -
setup no more than 2 yards off the los, on the inside shoulder of the receiver
jam him if he tries to break inside immediately
back pedal - maintaining position between him and the QB with eyes in the backfield - if he heads upfield
contact is allowed within 5 yards, and this takes away the quick slant, and the timing of any rub intended for a teammate trailing a man inside of yours
it also allows the db to keep position on a drag or other inside routes, and react to a fade
i'm so sick of watching receivers catching balls over the heads of DBs with their backs turned to the ball.. down close, you don't need get your hips turned as quick to run, because there's nowhere to run.. with a 2 yard head start. most DBs can back-pedal 10 yards before reacting to a fade other other outside route
guess it's me.. but i don't get it

The way to defend the rub play, as the ball snaps, the guy who cover Gron push him back so Gron and Chandler run into each other. Then they both fall on the ground.
Really, the key is to get to Brady. Regardless of who is on the field. if Brady has less than 2 seconds to throw, they are limited to short throws. The key to defend Gron, Gang tackle! Someone hold him up, the rest of the defenders rush to him and hit him in multiple angles. Some hit him high, some hit him low and aim at his feet. If they play 4 TE, that means Eddleman is not playing. That is great news!!

If they can cut Fred, nothing they do will surprise me again.

Make the playoff then he can have what nickname he wants.

I trust Rex to make the right choice. I maybe the only one that is sick of talking about the QBs. So far, it proves that nobody has any inside information on the whole thing. Not AP, and certainly not anyone from WGR for sure. Everyone are just guessing. Except some people like to make their predictions sound like they know something. I think any QB Rex put out there will have a logical reason. By the way, if you like one quarterback, that doesn't mean you have to automatically hate the other two or talk them down. I am the only one here that like all three of them because they all bring something to the table and they are all still part of the Bills. And I will not talk any of them down or wish anyone of them to fail.
-
I hope he gets the start for preseason game #3. If he put the ball in the end zone, that will do it for me. It shouldn't be too hard since people are saying the Steelers have a relatively poor defense this year.
-
OP: Very true.
I live out of the area but have been listening to WGR a lot this summer online to get training camp details. Murphy seems to be one of the very few broadcasters not ripping into Manuel.
They are defensive, and as the summer progresses, do not seem to want EJ to suceed. And as he has done well in games they have seemed to up their attacks, almost as if they are nervous that they were wrong and he could become a high quality NFL quarterback. Their biased comments and attacks would, of course, look even worse if this were to happen.
I am not saying that Manuel should start, as he has not been consistent. But he has looked more like an NFL quarterback each week. By being so negative they have lost their objectivty and are not reliable and trustworthy.
Too bad, as there are not althernatives on Buffalo radio to my knowledge, and we want to breathe Bills this time of year and will take what we can get. (Or are there alternatives on Buffalo radio?)
I totally agree with everything you said. I also have been listening for years. The second point OC made, I actually heard it live. It was Sal who said it on air to a caller Anthony. Sal said he wasn't trying to be a jerk on the radio but that was exactly what he was. I stopped listen to the station, except for John Murphy, after that statement.
On the topic of EJ, I have two points. 1. What EJ have done in spring has very little effect on today. EJ may have a bad camp, but he improved since. I value preseason more than practice because the purpose to practice is to get better. If you are already perfect than why do you still need to practice. WGR host seems to hang on to every pass players made and analyzed it to death. I think because they didn't have much else to said. That led to them talking about meat draft on the radio.
2. Tyrod is a running QB. We all know what happens to running QB, most of them don't make it through the season. That makes it very important to keep 3 QBs. From what I can see, EJ just needs time to develop. He may not be ready now but I see leadership quality in him. If the Bills let him go before he has a chance to develop, then it may explain why we couldn't make the playoff and why they still don't have a franchise quarterback. Good teams know how to develop quarterbacks.
-
We have a lot of players that are from other teams. Why single Cassel out for this discussion? Do you trust Tyrod? He was from Baltimore, and they also won Superbowl.
-
People, you should all listen to WGR less. The way I see it, TT still has yet shown me that he can throw the ball accurately down field. When he scrambled, he rarely look deep. He scored no touch down in 2 preseason game, even when he got good protection. For me he is just another running quarterback. He is like Brad Smith with more opportunities. He needs to prove to me he is a complete package by completing some long passes. He is already lack size. We got all these offensive weapons. It seems such a waste to have a QB that only want to run or throw short passes. Just want to warn you ahead of time, if you over rate him, you could be pretty frustrate when he doesn't work out when real bullets are flying.
-
Still hate him. He is a punk and his music sucks!

The NFL is planning to do away with DTV. They want to replace it with direct internet streaming. This game is just to test it out. They want to know the click rate if the game is only shown on streaming. So all of us are lab rats. So they won't make the game available on DTV because it will mess up their experiment. They picked the game between two small market teams for a reason.

Babatunde Aiyegbusi's T-shirt declares "I'M KIND OF A BIG DEAL," as if anyone in this shopping complex coffee shop wouldn't have noticed.
The massive Polish offensive tackle is listed at 6-9 and 351 pounds on the Minnesota Vikings' roster, and his American dream is outsized to match, weeks after he became one of the most improbable prospects ever to ink an NFL contract.
"He was like, 'Are you not happy?' I said, 'I will be happy when I put (Houston Texans star) J.J. Watt to the ground.''
Just mention offense tackle list at 6-9 and 351 pounds is impressive enough. His nationality does not add to his resume. It is like saying EJ Manuel the black QB. It is not necessary.
Big lineman doesn't automatically mean he can play. It reminds me of Mike Williams.
-
Pull the tape of Johhny Football last year with Gruden. I just can't watch him anymore.
-
You need Matt Cassel on this team, even as a backup. He can be someone EJ can go to for advice. If you have to cut a QB, I can see them cutting Tuel. McKelvin I can see him sticking around. He is ok at CB. He did get lit up once in a while but you can't have too many CB. Chris William will need to restructure his contract to take less money or he should be cut. I don't think we have seen him enough because he couldn't stay healthy. We have to ask Whaley what he saw in William when he signed him a few years ago.
To be honest, I think they like almost all the starters on the team and probably are feeling comfortable enough to not make any major cutting from now to camp.
-
so much for sportrac
Cap Space (w/Top 51 & Projected Draft Pool) $8,872,694
It was Brandon who said it, not Whaley.
-
Whaley is now saying we spent all our cap space (less than 6 millions left) so it is possible that the starting OL is already on this team. With "better coaching" I am hoping this unit will turn into a solid line. But that is still far from building a bully. The kind of running game Rex was talking about, we need some nasty linemen. Besides Incognito, the others are all just nice boys. Or maybe Rex already changed his mind.
I think a great OL makes average RB looks good. A great RB can only do so much. It is hard to build a great OL because there are 5 people and they have to work well together. That's why linemen are so valuable in the draft and RB are not so much. There are only so many Lynch and AP.Does a great OL make a great RB or
Does a great RB make a great OL??
-
Seattle just appeared in consecutive Super Bowls with an average (at best) OL.
That doesn't not mean it would work with the Bills' personnel. Seattle have a bruising back in Lynch who made up for the line. We also now have a lot of speed on offense. I think a good OL is needed to activate all these weapons we have.
-
We will need to be creative. But if they want to pound the ball, they should really get more help. They couldn't run the ball last year and so far they only just added one guy. Doesn't look good.
-
SD won't do it. Forget it already.
-
If we draft an OL, he must be able to run. We need to be able to run screens in game.
-
STOP TRYING TO TRADE DAREUS! He is our franchise player and must be kept with the team for the next ten years!
-
Get over it already.
-
I rather see Cassel win the job and have the other two compete for the backup job because those two are not yet ready to be the starter. Have Cassel start the season until he hit a wall then put the backup in. I expect Cassel to be effective and will win a lot of games right the way. By the bye week, they will re-evaluate the situation again.

I hope he makes it through the game uninjured. If he insists on coming, he is putting his safety on the line. All I can say is good luck and he should hope the Bills win.
