My point is that you are likely going to see Beasley standing by Josh all season long and part of that is him lobbying for the ball.

 

I'm sure he'll be lobbying for the ball, like all WRs.   But I hope he's also talking to Allen about what the WR is doing/thinking/reacting to when they watch the other guys run routes. 

 

Having a veteran WR constantly in his ear giving him 'master class' insight into WR play is a good thing for his development curve...

Pancho Billa can wear a wild costume and makeup and he's the quintessential Bills fan, while some guy dresses up as Darth Bill and he's a dope?  Dressing up is not my thing, but if some guys can have fun with it, more power to them.

Just saying. ??

 

These guys have all has issues with drops to this point in their NFL careers so when we hear reports of them dropping balls it shouldn't be a surprise. 

 

 

 

What about the positive reports? Should we be surprised? I’m not sure because I’ve never seen you comment about a positive development. Ever.

That is trash. I was off work yesterday and was ready to keep the radio locked on WGR55. They switch to the Instigators and I bail a nanosecond later.

 

The programming director needs to understand the audience.

Lack of competition makes one lazy. In radio as in any sport.

Um... this is only the 2nd practice?

Well at least it wasn't his worst practice! 

 

That was yesterday according to his report.

besides all the back and forth about reporters is there any actual practice coverage/notes?

 

Not from any TBDians apparently.  I posted link to Bills Mafia tweet compilation and Cover1 writeup on John Brown above.

Astro not up yet.

Edit I see you found one, good work!

Am I the only one that thinks Allen looks a little Native American? 

You may be the only one.

WR's always flash in shorts. We'll see what Easley does when the pads come on. Can't wait for that first preseason game.

I also think Dukes abilities will shine more once pads are on and things get physical.  Our WRs last year struggled hard against physical corners and press coverage.  Still think he’s gonna make the roster for this reason.

I had the opportunity to listen to Allen’s post practice interview on ‘One Bills Live’ today and he continues to impress with his deft ability to think and answer questions on the fly and with solid insight. His intelligence is noticeable every time I hear him speak. Every. Time. And to have those kinds of smarts along with such a humble personality is even more impressive. 

 

Reminds me of an old saying about the man who isn’t doing push-ups, he’s pulling the world towards him instead.

If your guna nag on my "negativity" at least get it right for what I'm "negative" about.... ya know, actually READ my posts.??

 

 

Isn’t Allen’s completion % directly affected by whether or not his receivers hold on to the ball?

I agree. While I’m not sure of the advertising ramifications, it seems like they could do a simple flip flop of show times when the Bills are scheduled to practice before noon.

Knowing McDermott's style, I take this as a huge compliment for what Wade has been able to do with limited experience. Basically showing him if he keeps grinding and improving he'll get opportunities on the field. It's good to see.

What impressed me was how different he sounded from a year ago when interviewed.  The confidence in his playcalling, his reads and his decision making is striking.

We'll just x fingers it carries over into the season.

Does it matter? Why bring it up?

 

Cause it's an observation that I have always had about him. There was a photo of him from his Wyoming days that very much looked like it. He just has high cheek bones and a narrow face that is common among Native Americans and it's always been interesting to me. I'm not sure if he has that in his genealogy or not. Maybe I'm crazy. :P

So far WR, CB2, and TE have been really fun position battles... Seems like the OL isn't getting as much movement as we might have expected. 

So Spain and Feliciano got #1 snaps again today?

If so,that's bad news for Wyatt with Long in front of him.
