26CornerBlitz Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 (edited) McDermott meets the media at 8:15 AM with practice starting at 8:45. Bills to meet with NFL officials to discuss targeting rule Wednesday The National Football League instituted a new set of tackling rules ahead of the 2018 season and its being met with plenty of backlash. The rule sounds simple enough, if someone — a defender — lowers their head to initiate contact, the player may be disqualified from the game. That’s a huge rule change, because realistically, offensive players lower their heads, too. At the foundation of the rule is player safety, however, the players don’t want to be tossed from games. The Buffalo Bills, according to head coach Sean McDermott, will get their chance to learn a little bit more on the new rules on Wednesday as NFL officials will visit St. John Fisher College to discuss the new rules. 8-1: Bills' Quarterback Josh Allen with Howard and Jeremy (7:33) Edited August 1, 2018 by 26CornerBlitz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was complimentary in other messages today, think he’s just reporting as he sees it and some fans are too sensitive about Allen being portrayed in the media. By all accounts it sounds like he’s having a good open to camp for a rookie. Some good some bad, which is to be expected. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't seen those in 800 years. Feeling the same. It also gives me encouragement that if he can drop those in the bucket, he can work on his other accuracy issues. It's not as if he isn't accurate. He may just have bad mechanics on certain throws (sounds like he blows at screens). I like hearing about his development. It's a good day with the defense unleashed and the O running time-pressure drills. Starting to see if he can handle pressure. Every day something new. We all know he will start at some point--I can't wait to see him on a game day but am happy to Trust/Respect the Process.

Back shoulders show both timing and accuracy. Allen's trouble seems to be with touch on short throws...that is a teachable skill. Back shoulders are tough to teach. The other highlights I have seen is that he knows how to throw a high-point fade. That is key with a guy like Benjamin. McCarron threw a nice one yesterday as well for Benjamin over Tre' De. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
