Was this important to you guys ?

 

I have total faith in Gabriel Davis, Isaiah McKenzie, and whoever they just signed from the practice squad

 

JK, I think they are good players but Diggs is from another planet and Beasley's mind meld with Allen and ability to find the gaps in the zone can't easily be replaced.

So bills five wide would be Diggs, Brown, Beasley, Davis, McKenzie, Scary thought.  Have we ever even in K-gun have had this much talent.

 

When Reed, Lofton, Beebe, McKeller and Thurman were on the field at the same time... 🤤

It is almost embarrassing to think of how good and deep our receivers are.

 

...until you start to take a look at how good and deep our practice squad RBs are!  😆

 

GO BILLS!

At the risk of outing myself as an old crank that music is horrible.

 

MC Hammer "U Can't Touch This"?  That's famous, man! It's also 30 years old! Rap video of the year in 1990 or something like that.  It's coach music!  McDermott likes MC Hammer and has used him as an example to the team in meetings, No Joke!

 

The PA system is awful.

Lol @ all the “he should do this, they shouldn’t play him if that.” This is professional football with professional coaches. If Beasley is healthy enough to play, he will play, that is all. No resting him for next week, he haven’t won a f****** thing. You play your best players now.

whenever I hear this song it brings me back to the super bowl era Bills having parties in Jim Kellys basement with stuff like this blaring through the speakers.

The judgement call is, as always:

 

Is Player A, at (whatever % he is less than 100%), better than player B at 100%?  Because it is at times, a zero sum game.  If A is active, maybe B is inactive.

 

The Bills may have gotten it wrong a couple times earlier this season, perhaps helped by the player who is highly competitive and is always gonna want to play.  We will just hope that whatever judgement they reach is the best one for the Bills to win.

The coach always does what he thinks gives his team the best chance to win (unless your Doug Pedersen). McD has earned our trust as fans, we just have to roll with whatever decision that is.

Diggs is 100% playing...Beasley might be a game time decision...

 

We still don't even know what the issue is...if it is a quad strain, might need another week before he can put that type of stress on it in game situations.

Of course!  The challenge is that the coach needs to take the evaluation of the trainers/physicians and the player's self-evaluation, and sometimes reconcile them.  There's a healthy amount of judgement call involved

100% agreed. I just find humor when us fans state things as if the coaching staff has no clue or incompetent to such things.

I'd be tempted to sit Beasley another week and go with McKenzie in hos role since he is now listed as full participant. 

 

Its the playoffs, you can never be certain of a next week....if he can play he will play.

I think there was a thread about this:

 

Reed = McKittrick

Lofton = Davis

Beebe = Knox

McKeller = Diggs

Thurman = Moss

 

I believe that was the title before it devolved about 30 times.

 

 

LOL 😂

True, but the other side is if he re-injures it and is out the rest of playoffs.  A WR group of Diggs, Brown, Davis and McKenzie  likely would still be pretty strong.  If Beasley is close to 100% could always activate him, but only use him if one of the four were to get hurt in the game and the game is still in doubt. 

 

Admittedly once these guys do return to practice, they are often in better shape than we realize, so maybe he'll be fine?

Yep.....at worst he will be limited to red zone and 3rd and short situations, where he can be most effective.

Healthy teams win the playoffs.  I can't  believe how healthy Buffalo is going into this game.  OLINE, DLINE, RBs, TEs, DBs, LBs and most of the WRs.  This team is deeper talent-wise than anyone else in the playoffs.  No one is on IR.  They're poised to make some noise in the playoffs.

Smoke screen as much as anything.  Diggs will not miss this game.  

 

Talking about "smoke screens" with Brown looking healthy and fast that WR screen is back on the menu.  As I recall it was very effective in the early going when Brown was on the field.
