He rolled out of the pocket, appeared to take a helmet-to-helmet hit and then the defensive end landed on top of him pretty hard. I'm not sure what the specific injury was.

Gugny Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 A few of you may know how I feel about Tyrod Taylor. One thing I’ll give the guy is that he’s not a quitter. I feel bad for him today and I hope his injury isn’t serious. I’ll be happy if/when the NFL does away with preseason games. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDubya76 Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 I guess I’m not sure what the rule is, because it’s never consistently called, but it sure looks like he launched and landed with his body weight on to Taylor’s shoulder maybe I’m wrong because his legs were off to the side but sure seemed like all the pressure was put on Taylor by his upper body. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think preseason games are more useful. Hell, a two-legged stool is more useful than the Pro Bowl. But I just don't think preseason games are necessary. If they eliminate them across the board, every team has the same amount of rust to get through ... and every team has the same limitation with regard to finalizing their rosters based solely upon practices, etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see it going down to two games before long, maybe when they try to get to 18 games. Not sure if they ever go to zero, but it’s a chance for scrubs to have their day in the sun. My son worked out with a guy who supposedly “played for the Bills”, and there is a photo which seems to confirm that. Just keep Josh and the gang safely on the sideline. The Pro Bowl? I don’t even take a peek. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m inclined to believe the Bills don’t wanna carry three QBs on the 53. Agree entirely that Barkley would wanna have more fun on a SB contender. PS players are free agents. If another team offers to sign any player, vested or not, the player has the choice to sign, or to say "no thanks, I'm Good here." Of course, there's enough of a pay raise that for a young player the motivation to take it is strong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really like the guy, but people get hurt ever week. I hate pre-season football as much as anyone, but I wouldn't ever want the NFL to be without it. What makes NFL football such a good sport compared to just about every other sport or level of football is how high the bar is. I want every team playing their best football and ready to roll come week one - not a bunch of teams that have no idea what they're doing halfway through the year. The Lions, Commanders, and Jaguars give us enough of that. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Red King Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 At the least it was a helmet-to-helmet shot. Tyrod just has the worst luck. Guy is an injury magnet. I hate to say it, but at this point in his life if he's been smart enough with his money, the guy should retire, given where his career is. It's not worth it.

I have no idea why the NFLPA doesn't force the NFL owner's hand and ban preseason games.

They played pre-season games last year and they stunk against Pittsburgh. Bills best season in terms of offense was 2020. No preseason. It's not needed. They can figure out the roster bottom feeders in practice. With a larger PS it is even less important.

Are you trying to say as some do that Preseason games (only games which some will be able to see when new stadium is added) are bad because they charge? Are scrimmages also not necessary? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
