McDermott was extremely fidgety while answering that. Definitely a sign he was not giving the full answer that he wanted to give and was choosing his words very carefully. Similar to when Allen had a very long pause yesterday before answering that question in order to think of a way to phrase his answer properly.

A few weeks ago Alex Singleton from the Broncos was randomly drug tested and it detected abnormally high levels of something called hCG or human chorionic gonadotropin. This raised a red flag and after further medical evaluations, he was diagnosed with testicular cancer and had successful surgery to have it treated.
They believe it was caught early enough that it should have minimal impact, with the doctors believing he should make a full recovery and will even be able to return to play later this season.
So while NFL players might hate getting that visit at their locker after the game to go pee in a cup, it may just end up saving their life.

Looks like an ugly weather day from the early forecasts...
48 degrees winds 10-20 mph with higher gusts. Chance of rain 80%. Always a chance the rain holds off or ends earlier as it's still 6 days out, but not looking pretty as of right now.

Hey Peeps on Medicare... Anyone else get their Medicare Advantage Plan cancelled and you have to find a new one? I've had a great one since April when I first got on and now the choices are slimmer and more expensive in co pays etc. Current plan is Excellus Blue/Active (PPO). Be interested in if others are getting the same notice.
Mike
PLEASE don't make this politics!
My Dad got a notice that Kaleida would no longer accept his UHC plan in 2026 for Medicare Advantage so I spent the weekend delving into things and got him set up on Univera today...only for him to receive a letter in the mail from Kaleida this morning that it reached an agreement with UHC and would continue accepting it next year.
Went to medicare.gov and basically sorted thru all the options there.
This sh!t should be illegal.

It looks like they could free up about 23 million next year by designating Samuel and Knox as post June-1st cuts and also cutting Rapp who is in the last year of his deal next year, but since they are already almost 4 million over the cap next year, we would only have about $19 million to work with.
Assuming there would be some other restructures and/or moves involved.
Have 5 void years hitting next year as well eating up cap space if we don't move to re-work those in Milano, Jones, Bosa, Epenesa, and McGovern. Would expect McGovern, Epenesa and Bosa to look to be extended... that would help lower those cap hits of roughly $15-16 million combined. Milano and Jones are likely not returning and we are going to have to eat the cap hits of about $15 million total on them.
So we have some levers to pull but we will have to work around some things.

I was trying to understand what we can and cannot do with the cap in 2026 but I honestly do not fully get it. Knox & Samuel look like we can cut and gain 16.5, but the rest of the guys I cannot figure out where the space can be created (I Know it exists somehow).
Is there anyone who is a capologist who can explain what our most likely moves are?
You can go to either Spotrac or OverTheCap and play around with things in there that will allow you to manage things and cut players, etc...

It's unreal how snakebit this team is with injuries this year...and really Buffalo teams in general...same thing is going on with Sabres.

This Buffalo Bills offense is run centric now and alas like when Daboll was here he had no answer when they shut down his passing scheme. Joe Brady doesn't seem to have no answer for when opponents shut down the run game.
Another problem is that Buffalo no longer has that #1 WR in Stephon Diggs so I don't know if Daboll could replicate what he did when Diggs was here. He would have Shakir who is the best slot WR in the NFL and others who i think he could scheme to get open.
A healthy Palmer and Kincaid at the same time would alleviate some of this problem. Looks like we won't have that for at least 2-3 more weeks now.

I don't think Daboll didn't want to run the ball; he just couldn't run the ball. Those offenses he had weren't extremely talented. The offensive line struggled heavily along with an extremely pedestrian running back and tight end room.
But we DID run the ball effectively once he switched blocking schemes multiple years in a row...
At the start of the year he would run a blocking scheme that wouldn't work and then after the bye we would switch to a different scheme and be one of the better running teams in the NFL.
It was talked about multiple times by numerous film study people including Cover 1

I don’t want Daboll to be our HC. I want him back as our OCAnd then we would be right back to "why can't run the ball?!?!?". We need a mix of Daboll's passing game schemes with Brady's run game schemes if that is even possible.

I agree that we need to clean house. But this would be the best plan BExcept he has no idea how to be a HC. Some great coordinators don't have the skillset to make good HC's, they are completely separate skillsets. Daboll may be a great OC, but he will never likely be a great HC.

They should be on the phone to him immediately to help fix this passing game.

KC isn't exactly the pinnacle here. This is the best run defense we have faced this season.
Maybe because they gave up a lot of yards to us?

Any team can bust a big run. One of those was with a stacked box at the end of the game. The greater point is this is a team that seems built to disrupt our standard formula. We should have a pretty good idea of that coming in. They have held 6 teams to under 100 yards total rushing and the per play advanced stats on run defense are among the best in football. Better than New England when looking at both. So this is the type of team people have been calling out as far as being difficult to move the ball on. We will see if we have any answers.
Yeah they are good, but so were the Chiefs who hadn't allowed a 100 yard rusher at the RB position in 26 games until we played them.
If the Bills execute properly we can run against pretty much anyone. If they don't and are sloppy in their preparation and are off on details, then that makes it a lot easier to stop them.
The problem is our team seems to lack focus more often than usual this year for whatever reason.

Man I dunno...Henderson just scored on runs of 55 and 69 yards against them yesterday...

Again, this is a tax write off for a guy who is worth 9 bill of his own.
And you have missed what I was saying completely, all you want to do is argue just to argue. My main point was with the NFL as a whole. All I said about Terry is he has no incentive to make a regime change. If you disagree with that component,put up a valid discussion challenging that part.
I will say this, and I will die on this hill, KIM is the one who wanted the Bills and would have truly put all she had into winning.
This has been the 2nd winningest team in all of pro sports in the last 6 years. I mean, sure, it would be nice to win a Championship and they SHOULD win a championship, but you could just as easily take a major step backwards as you could forwards by replacing two people that have been pretty freaking good overall in the grand scheme of things.

You do understand that is a tax deduction for a billionaire with a 9 billion net worth right?
Maybe you need a dose of reality.
How many other teams paid out $415 million this offseason? I'm guessing not many. As always, the biggest problem is the lack of comparison to other teams here.

Maybe
but one actually stays on the field healthy, and it ain’t Palmer
Palmer has been relatively durable over his career with far greater usage than Hollins has. It's easy to stay available when all you are doing is getting Special Teams snaps most games.

Its not BS but keep drinking the kool aid
So I'm guessing $415 million just appeared out of thin air? You realize those bonuses are paid out of pocket up front right? They get accounted for on the cap spread out over the length of the contract but that money was written in the form of a check on the day that contract as signed. I'm not sure where you are residing, but it clearly is not in reality.

You can feel free to not respond and ignore.
So we can just keep the fake narrative that doesn't actually exist going? No thanks, I'd rather point out the BS. If you want to argue they spent the money on the wrong people, that's one thing. To argue they "aren't spending money", that's complete and utter BS.

I agree with you. I saw a video the other day that said the same thing. I will say some owners are willing to spend to win. The Eagles owner comes to mind. Look at all the void years on a lot their contracts.
I'm guessing the fact Pegula ponied up $415 million in this past off-season on contract guarantees somehow is left out of this conversation? WTF are we doing here? Starting to make up random stuff and then convincing ourselves it's true?
Holy Sh!t. I've seen bad before on this board, but this is starting to really piss me off because half the stuff is just a bunch of bullsh!t.

I'm not sure if you guys watched the whole game? If you came away from that Max performance thinking "it was just a bad game" or "he wasn't thaaaaat bad" you are lying to yourself. Max was beat consistently all game. Waddle literally schooled the kid. He has a long way to go!
It's literally 3 games into his rookie year where he missed the entire camp. He has been damn good for that amount of time missed.
My God, what is wrong with half of these posters who expect rookies to step on the field and be All-Pro from their first snap.
It's called experience, reps and time on task.

I mean he made several impactful plays in the run game, so it wasn't all bad.
