Milano played on a very limited basis,  he will start and take the majority of the reps.  Brown is running just fine Einstein but if you know anything about leg injuries you can tweak them easily.  As of today, Brown will start.  The trainers and coaches will be closely monitoring his reps during the week and extra treatment in the whirlpool. Why are you arguing about something so simple to grasp


1) use punctuation; it helps make your post more readable.

2) you’re just saying whatever you want and presenting it as fact.

The crazy thing about the Belichick is he pulls out a new wrinkle that you don't expect.  I fully expect him to use White as his featured back.  Instead we are likely to see Burkhead or Harris or something even crazier like J.J. Taylor.

I know he does that, but I’m just not convinced they have the high end talent or OL play this season to make the new wrinkle into a game winning strategy

I want us to win. I have been following the bills since Jack Kemp and Minnie max Anderson.  The pats have our number

 

If you have been following the NFL that long, you know that things change.

The Pats don't have our number.  They have clearly had our number for the last 20 years.  But we dominated them the decade prior.

Buffalo has also won the last few meetings against the Patriots when they have been without Tom Brady.

 

I understand the respect people have for Bill Belichick.  But his coaching clearly isn't overcoming the roster problems so far this year.  Early in the season, opponents weren't expecting the drastic change in offensive style and were caught off guard by Cam Newton's running ability.  Defenses have adjusted and now their lack of offensive weapons is killing them.

I am not presenting as fact.  These are my thoughts based on reading and connecting the dots of information I gather and then just using common sense.  Please follow: brown has a hurt leg, we are playing an 0-6 team, we hold him out we know we have ne.  Milano plays sparingly and only in key moments. You don’t have to be Columbia to figure it out. Both are recovered and will start.  Pure conjecture but probably true

No Jersey Mike's in WNY that I am aware of, I never had it but seen commercials. We have a good local sub scene though. Rather support the locals instead of chains 

 

They actually did just open one on McKinley in the plaza across the street from the mall.

Yep, he isn’t a great college scout, I’d say he is average.

We will see some posters defending him, always happens whenever I point out he isn’t very good at drafting. A good QB in the right scheme can some deficiencies, Belichick is on his own now and it’s not looking good. 

 

For some here it's blasphemy to talk badly of the Hoodie.

Moss is not a big back my friend. I think the bills are disappointed in his inability to break tackles.  If he was a big back, Josh wouldn’t  have to carry the ball so much in short yardage.  

 

I think there is an argument Josh is better than any running back in short yard situations.

 

Part of that being there are so many looks they can give. 

 

You put a big back in on short yardage, we are not as multiple. But leaves us open to critical injury to our QB, I will give you that.

 

But I say it's worth it.

Their oline was a fair bit better this past week with Andrews and Mason back. When they are all heathy LT to RG is a top 10 unit. They do have issues at RT but I think they can run the football on us. They were blocking well for Harris. The key for the Bills is get up on them and take away that run game with scoreboard pressure. That is what the 9ers were able to do and the Pats unravelled from there.

So heres my weekly "We're due for a defensive score" post......

 

Its been a ridiculously long time since we've scored on D(2017). This drought has become creepily long at this point.... We're due for a defensive score

DiBella's>>>>>>>

From wiki

 

"Wegmans has incorporated DiBella's style sub shops into their stores, with consultation from the DiBella family, but they are not actual DiBella's restaurants. Top New York food critic Derek Ellis has suggested the Wegman's sub may have even surpassed the original DiBella's sub, though this claim was met with criticism from New York Times food critic Matthew Krush.[citation needed]"

Do we? I mean, all we know about the 2020 version is that they’re 2-4 with the 31st ranked scoring offense.

I will defend his drafting the way I always do - the run they had 2008-2016 is one of the best spells of consistent drafting by any team in the league in the last 20 years. They drafted really well and it is no coincidence that run of drafting coincided with the setting up their second era of Superbowl runs.

 

Jerod Mayo, Matthew Slater, Patrick Chung, Julian Edelman, Sebastian Vollmer, Devin McCourty, Rob Gronkowski, Aaron Hernandez, Nate Solder, Marcus Cannon, Shane Vereen, Chandler Jones, Dont'a Hightower, Jamie Collins, Logan Ryan, James White, Malcolm Brown, Tre Flowers, Shaq Mason, Joe Thuney…. plus Malcolm Butler and David Andrews as UDFAs. I make that 20 actual difference makers who were established starters over a 9 year period. That is without including guys like Elandon Roberts and Ted Karras and Nate Ebner and Duron Harmon and Brandon Spikes and Tavon Wilson who were solid depth and role players.... oh and of course Jimmy Garoppolo and Jacoby Brissett one starting level and one top end backup Quarterback who were trade away for more capital.

 

Those drafts were the backbone of a roster that won 3 Superbowls and produced 7 all pro selections and 20 pro bowl selections (some were the same players multiple times). They have however drafted incredible BADLY since 2017. I don't know what you put it down to. It coincides with the coming and going of Bob Quinn in a senior personnel role in the Front Office but my understanding is he was mainly on the pro personnel side and he has hardly smashed it out of the park as GM in Detroit.

Just perused the Pats*** forum and their ‘Bills Week’ thread. Kind of interesting as many see clearly that their team stinks and others think it’s just a lull. Short thread, only three pages when I was there. 
 

Fun read nonetheless. 😃

Wegmans passed DiBellas a long time ago. It’s not even close anymore.

I have yet to find a football fan forum that comes close to the page counts of TBD.

Injury designations are not made till thursday or friday, IIRC. Could be wrong.

 

 

Jon Feliciano's situation is different.  He started the season on IR.  He started working out on October 7. 

Per league IR rules, when a player starts working out, the team has 21 days to activate him or return him to IR.

 

I think that's today.....might be Weds.
