First of all, it isn’t a myth.  Look at the last few games.  It is what we did to Mahommes. 
 

Can we beat a cover 2?  Yes.  Allen must be patient and take the underneath stuff.   Daboll needs to call a better game, not  be one dimensional and run the ball more effectively.  Stop the stupid drive killing  penalties.  OL has to give Allen time to find a receiver when the medium and deep stuff is taken away.  
 

Cover 2 is nothing new or unbeatable.  

Myth that it's the way to stop our offense.  I was responding to the ridiculous post that all of a sudden Cover 2 shuts us down...just bc Jacksonville did it 1x

So odd that they add a guy from PS only to make him inactive. I wonder if they have rules how many minimum need to be on the roster even if inactive. 

Guy gets a full GameDay check for doing nothing.

That could be why.  Maybe he is doing well, and this is a reward.

@YoloinOhio or anybody else who keeps track - so right now from original roster:

 

IR - Feliciano, Zimmer + covid list - Trubisky, Kumerow, Star (5 total)

New on roster - OL Douglas, CB Lewis, DT Bryant (3 total, or maybe 4 with QB Webb)

 

Is Davis Webb elevated only or regular roster member now? Since we have 4 inactives only I guess Webb should be on roster, and Sportrac thinks the same, but I don't remember seeing it.

 

Is anybody else elevated this week?

 

And we have 1 roster spot open, right?

Me too but why activate this PS player then? Unless they plan to sit Phillips? They have an extra spot because Edmunds is out. 

 

It makes a big difference to the player to be elevated.

 

PS salary is $9,200 a week, which is still good money to most of us ($165,600 for a full season)

 

Minimum salary for a player with 1 accrued season (Butler may have more, hard for me to tell for a long-time journeyman) is $43,333/game/  So it's a $34,133 "bonus" to elevate a PS player, even if they aren't active.

 

No reason not to reward a hard working PS player with that kind of monetary recognition if the Bills have an opening to do it.  Plus, then he'd be able to be active if someone were injured in warmups.

It really is such an unbelievable waste that we have a “RB” that dresses every game but can’t play running back…never touches the ball, never catches the ball. Then he’s legitimately only on the team for ST’s but he isn’t even a return guy. And our special teams do nothing but get penalties.

 

Oh, Geez.  I have a gift for predicting these things: the Gameday Threads are just gonna be a Joy today.

i hope Knox is fully back and ready to play cuz i feel like he's the key to opening up this offense again,  especially against cover 2 type defenses.    time to correct some of our problems.  hoping for a solid game in all phases and a convincing win.  Go Bills!!!!

Every team has specialists.  Matakevich is useless as a linebacker too. I would have gone with a young safety or corner instead of a RB that can't do much.
