He should play the entire game. I’m sure the WRs fighting for a roster spot are thrilled.

 

Expect lot's of handoff's,  bubble screens and quick slants.  And watch the DB's for Minnesota read Tyree's eyes and be right on top of the receivers no matter how quickly he gets rid of the ball.

It’s not like the Vikings are going to play anyone who won’t be working at Target next month, either.

 

Besides fringe guys on the bubble, nobody in this game will be NFL relevant.

Minnesota will be playing preseason hero QB Kyle Sloter-- good betting opportunity

This is why preseason sucks.  I watched the guy for 3 years at UB.  Legit has all the physical nfl talent in the world.  But because he is struggling to transition to the nfl which getting less than 1/3 of the snaps, he sucks and has no future.

 

he is the definition of a developmental qb.  But let’s give him for Alex Tanney who has no good nfl skills.

I plan to watch the dawning of the Matt Myers Era over at UB Stadium Thursday against a tomato can called Robert Morris. (I guess Villa Maria was busy.) It's on ESPN+ Thursday. I'll watch the Bills on replay after.

Robert Morris wasn’t a bad program a few years ago and put a few guys in the NFL.  I had a friend that played there and he played with Hank Fraley who started on the Eagles.

 

the Myers thing is interesting.  He single handedly destroyed Timon by leaving and made West Seneca West become state champs.  Super talented kid.

 

also, I know you’re a big UB guy, what do you think about Jackson?

Surprised you haven't seen numerous comments I've made on him. Being a UB supporter I want him to succeed, but he's been awful.  He hasn't done enough to earn a PS slot. But I also felt Cardale Jones was just as bad. The Chargers stuck with him and he's now challenging Tyrod Taylor for QB2. So I'm fine with keeping him around. He definitely left school (UB or any transfer) too soon. More coaching can only help.

So STH get forced to buy these exhibitions, pay to park and then pay more to eat and drink in the stadium...

 

to watch Tyree Freakin’ Jackson play the whole game!   ?

 

 

Tip of the cap to anyone who plans on attending this travesty. 

I have this argument all the time with the Bills and some of their folks...why not just market the cost of the ST to be  for the regular season games, and as a bonus we give you two free preseason games. So if the cost of a seat for the season is $800, just divide that up according to your variable pricing guideline by 8 games, instead of 10.

 

Makes my regular season face value higher, might recoup more on resale, and more people may buy season tickets cause they aint eating the preseason. Also takes away the anger of  many ticket holders saying "I am flushing $160 down the tubes on this game.. 

 

They have never been able to give me a good reason why they DONT do it this way, other than thats not the way we do it.

To be accurate, his second half of the season was awful. He was quite good early.

 

As for your ST question, I think it has something to do with revenue shared with the visiting team. Road teams get a cut of the gate in the NFL.

Stop with the hyperbole. He had a bad finish to his season but was far from awful the whole year.  I was at the EMU game where he completed 80% of his passes for 325 and 3 tds.  If you saw that game and a bunch others, it was nfl caliber.  

 

He is a raw dude.  But he is what you try to develop more than some scrub with no talent.

I know it is not important, but I really, really, really want to go 4-0 this preseason.

 

If I may quote the Principal from that 80s classic teen movie, Three O'Clock High, from the climactic fight scene:

 

"DON'T **** THIS UP, MITCHELL!"

Didn’t the Browns and Lions go 4-0 in the preseason before they went winless?

I'll take my chances.

I thought he was overhyped and awful pretty much the whole year. He had some big games, but I was never impressed with his accuracy  or decision making,l.

 I don’t disagree but that’s why you keep him on practice squad and hopes this improves with nfl coaching.
