Big Turk

Fun story, my parents owned a double plot of land in Cape Coral that was on a canal with gulf access and we went down to check it out back in the late 80s or early 90s when I was a young teenager...well, it was in a development where there were barely any street signs and only a few houses at that time, so we stopped at the office at the front of the development and told them we wanted to check out the property we owned and the lady said "sure, you can follow me back there because it's easier if I just take you since there are no signs up". So we follow her back and are out looking around and I look out in the canal and ask the lady "What's that floating log looking thing out there?" and she goes "Oh, honey, you want to step back a little bit, that's a gator, you don't want to get to close to that..." I ran back in the car and locked the door and wouldn't get out, and as we were leaving I told my parents that if they wanted to build a house there they could feel free but I was not ever coming to visit them. 😂 Never did build a house but sold it for a small fortune right before the housing bust in 2007-2008.

Yeah, but I don't have to keep my head on a swivel when I am outdoors looking for gators who may be randomly in the area. 😂 Or have to freak out every time I open my door because there might be a flying cockroach that gets in and causes an infestation. 😂

It started snowing in WNY about 15 minutes after I got done trick or treating...some places like Hamburg got almost 5 inches...got about 1.5-2 inches in the eastern burbs.

Also we have seen players come back from pec tears even when they had surgery much faster than expected...JJ Watt returned to practice 8 weeks after surgery https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/28365547/texans-jj-watt-returning-practice-pectoral-muscle-tear

Personally I would rather see Linval Joseph, he would fill DaQuan's role better IMHO

Perhaps the injury wasn't as bad as feared? Seems strange if there was no real ligament damage other than an MCL Sprain that he would be out for an entire season with a broken leg if it happened in week 5.

Guess those Pokeman cards weren't working out as well as he thought...

I posted it, but go back and watch the Baltimore game from last year and highlights and he was excellent in zone coverage in that game.

No, I am basing that on his play and film breakdown of him in zone.

He has been relatively good in zone that's the crazy part. I mean that can't be why he has sucked tho can it? Maybe that is like 5% of it but if he is out there running around and playing I can't imagine it could be a huge factor...

Seattle's secondary is pretty good...2 really good CB's, one of them with crazy sub 4.3 speed in Wooten(who they got in the 5th round in the same draft as Elam)

Thought Benford had a strong game against the Bucs for the most part. Hmm..interesting...perhaps this is pat of the reason why Elam hasn't been playing well?

Not anymore it isn't. Usually a 1 to 1.5 point advantage or sometimes less than that.

We match up very well with the Ravens. McD basically wrote the book on how to slow down Jackson..

Would like to see them stay up-tempo to reduce the number of exotic blitz looks Cincy can dial up and make things easier on the offense in terms of reads and forcing them to stay in personnel groupings they like.

And they kept having him play man, which he has not been good at in the NFL instead of zone which is the preferred defense McD plays which he is very good at. I don't get it...were they hoping he would be like Tre and they would be able to use him to play man more and free up coverage options in other places?

This is interesting...Elam has been a VERY good zone CB when he has played and a bad man CB for the Bills. Which makes it all the more confusing. This goes along with the one breakdown on his film by a NFL film breakdown person who asked early last year if Elam was a zone CB because he looked so natural and was playing coverages perfectly...don't understand how he can't see the field when he excels at what the Bills play predominantly.

Imagine being "afraid" of any team with Josh Allen as your QB. Give me a break.

I mean he made a really nice INT against Allen last year...

Davis loves paying out big contracts to coaches who no longer coach the team

Did they not defeat KC on a Taron Johnson INT to end the game last year? Did they not take a pick 6 101 yards to the house against Baltimore in the playoffs? Do you remember cursing and swearing at the TV as Johnson ran this back all the way as the rest of us(except your friend @Airseven ) were jumping up and down screaming our heads off in jubilation? Seems like people have very selective memories...usually the posters who pretend to be Bills fans but are actually trolls.

3rd most interceptions in the NFL over the past 3 seasons with 10? "Douglas has 10 interceptions over the last three seasons and has allowed a 59.8% completion percentage as the nearest defender, per Next Gen Stats. His experience and success in zone coverage will help. Eight of those interceptions came in zone and he allowed 57% of passes to be completed in zone coverage as the nearest defender." Seems pretty solid to me.

Next Gen stats also says Douglas has been excellent and so do people who break down film, so this isn't simply going on one site.

Also made a hell of a play against the Bills last year to pick off Allen.
