I'll watch soon, but my stomach for the Bills turned a bit after that Cinci nightmare. Reliving it through the overly optimistic eye of Billsmade media is going to be challenging.

Sadly, I have to agree.  Granted, it's only preseason, but it was a disturbing.  Hopefully it was just preseason blues, but tough to stomach what I witnessed against cincy.  Preseason or not, coaches, and players need to get their sh!t together.  That was gross.

I still don’t understand why he would mix and match the oline the first time Allen got time with the 1s. It’s bad coaching or some nutty ass trial by fire, hope you fail so I can start Nate again and prove I wasn’t a fool last year.

The show made me smile. I do love my Bills. But my optimism for success on the field is not high. That O-line is cringe-worthy.

I'm hoping it was an attempt by McD to see what players can, or more accurately, can't do at other positions to help decide who is a luxury to keep and who needs to be kept on the oline.

 

At least that's what I'm telling myself to feel better about the **** show they put on.

trust the process. it's not like Allens died or was mortally wounded...

 But i bet his tape of head bouncing was shown again and again for all the Offense and defense alike to see.

thats a wake up call for the Team and each player and Coach.

 

I kinda get it. But wow. thats a risk I would never take. especially against Cinci's 1st string

I’d love to hear the reasoning for the decision and the play calling but lucky enough he didn’t get a concussion on that play. I give McD the benefit of doubt but I don’t see any scenario where the game 3 situation looks good on him.

this kind of foul mouthed language is wholly unacceptable.

 I have rightly and soundly reported you.

 This is a Family forum.

when McD spoke and said he was "toying )my words( " with the O line ? a had a little WTF Sean moment.
when i saw 71 on the field right off I had to take a closer look and the line changes

They all just seem like good guys, you know? I love how McD runs camp and meetings....wish he'd run the sideline a little better. Tre Day always cracks me up. Loved Ray Ray getting a bulls eye.

The reason why he was doing it was because you could see early on that the offensive line was having issues with pass protection so he was simply moving people around and substituting people in and out to find the right combination.

Not the case. It was their plan going into the game to substitute players at different spots to prepare them for the regular season with the need arising.

I'm with you. I found it to be rather puzzling with Allen trying to show his stuff. 

During the game I didn't have an issue with it because I figured he was doing more along the line of what I thought but if that was their plan going in then yes, it is truly puzzling

I should know better than to use big words.  My apologies.

How is it puzzling. This is preseason guys, he is trying to evaluate the whole roster not just one position, albeit the most important position. This is when you do it.
