Warcodered Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 I'd guess they'll try and let them get in a rhythm and then pull them after that series. 4 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buffaloboyinATL Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 Interesting. I don't think that was the original plan, but I could be wrong. I have a feeling McDermott hopes to end the pre-season on a high note, and build the teams confidence going into week one. 4 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cotton Fitzsimmons Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 One would think if they zip down the field for a quick TD, that will be it. But, if they recreate last week’s miscues, you have to wonder how long McDermott will leave them in. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FireChans Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 Folks that say preseason doesn't matter are sick to find out the coach is punishing the starters by making them play in this one because of how crappy they looked 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloBillyG Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 It feels like had they done well last week that would have been a wrap on the majority of the starters PS. However with the presnap penalties it's good to get them back out there and tune up a bit. Just hope we stay healthy. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lost Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 Hopefully they run one successful series and then done. Don't need our starters recovering for week 1 game while our opponents are fresh. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mushypeaches Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 I think this is a good plan despite the injury risks. Both sides of the ball need to be crisper and show overall readiness for the opener 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HappyDays Posted August 24, 2023 Author Share Posted August 24, 2023 (edited) The only thing I'll say is that if they're going to put Allen out there they have to let him play. If he wants to run let him run. If he gets hit, so be it. What we saw against the Steelers is useless for him to practice. If they're worried about him taking hits then call exclusively quick passes and runs. Edited August 24, 2023 by HappyDays 3 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virgil Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 Please let the first play be Josh throwing a pick six to Edmunds. I just want to watch this board implode 36 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on reports from yesterday it doesn't sound serious, but if it came down to it we could start Bates or Edwards in his spot and manage just fine. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Process Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 I highly doubt we see Josh for more than one series. One series just to get the taste of last week out of their mouths (assuming, hoping it goes better) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FilthyBeast Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 Good, not a McD fan but he needs to do something to send a message to this soft team knowing the hornets nest they're walking into on MNF against the Jets so they aren't blown of the field by the end of the 1st quarter again. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They haven't earned the right to sit out a game. They could use the work. Go out, play clean, disciplined football, drive the ball down and score a time or two (and show some pride and gap integrity and tackling acumen on defense), THEN you can sit and make jokes on the sideline. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frostbitmic Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 No surprise considering they don't play their opener for another two+ weeks. I'm sure it'll be short and sweet. Hopefully they don't lose another Tackle this week,They're 2/2 so far, or anyone else. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jletha Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 Idlove to know how much of this is McD *telling* the offense their playing vs Josh/Dorsey wanting to play. My guess is 50/50. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just want to watch this board implode Edmunds’ next pick six would be his first, right? I would expect it’s much more likely for him to be JUST close enough for a PBU, miss the ball, then grab the player and hope the safeties come in to finish the play after a gain of 12. The Edmunds special. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twist_to_open Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 Based on how crappy our OL has played, I would like to see them sit Josh so he doesn't get hurt, and play the starting linemen until they can pick up a block and not make so many stupid penalties even if it takes 4 quarters and overtime.

Many teams are playing starters this week. If you want to send a message you bench a starter like Dawkins.

ngbills Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 One 8 play, 75 yard drive for a TD. Josh with some quick decisive passes as we march down the field. Then get some rest. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikePJ76 Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 Really hate this Mcgovern injury. If it is minor why do they not say it is minor? The jets are going to prepare the same way anyway and they have plenty of tape on him from his time in Dallas and the preseason here. So being secretive seems pointless. This team is going to go with the lines and this is not a good start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albany,n.y. Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 If Barkley can't go, the Bills need to sign another QB like they did with Leinart years ago for the final preseason game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
