Working. Didn't see the game.

 

Any injuries? Thats all I care about.

Taron Johnson left the game but was cleared of concussion protocol and probably would have come back in a real game

Did sanders look good?

 

I was only half watching but I didn't notice any flashes while I was. What'd I miss? (Genuinely asking)

I focused on him a few times and didn’t notice much. Others have said he had a couple pressures. I missed them watching other players.

Things I liked:

The  new young interior DL looked solid against the run and made some plays. 

 

Gore Jr. He didn't do anything eye popping but I love watching him play. Solid football player.

 

3 WRs I thought showed well today. Shenault quietly had a solid game. Great hands on the 2 point conversion. Shavers with the long grab showed some great separation. Wilkinson...kid just has to get the feet in. 

 

Personally, I liked Trubisky today. Very steady performance and took care of the ball well.

 

Bosa/Milano. Both had some plays early that were magnificent to see. If they can stay healthy, they are going to be a HUGE problem for offenses.

 

Some things I didn't like:

 

3rd down. It's been said over and over that the Bills were vanilla on defense. They were. Giants were vanilla on offense too. In games like this it comes down to just beating the man across from you. The Bills defe did not do that. 

 

Landon Jackson. Ok, granted he lined up offside on the one play. Bad error. But not my biggest issue with him. He played very soft. Got escorted upfield and past the QB on several rushes. Couldn't come off his blocks. He was shoved around very easily today. He need work on both strength and techniques IMO. 

 

TE3. Davidson should be cut before dinner.

Just driving home from work, had Wfan on, listen to Dabol post game presser, very fiery , night n day to McD..

 

If s*** hits the fan , I'd take him over McD next year, I've been a McD homer, always defended him but the more I think about it the more angry I get , this guy's defense does nothing when it matters

[wjag]

Seems like they were picking on Tre White while he was in there.  
 

Didn’t notice Moore.  Shavers working hard to make team.

Maybe not.

 

Hopefully it's completely obvious to everyone by now

Johnson had pop but nobody else did. Either Cook gets paid or we have to use a 2 or 3 on RB next year.

How about Sanders and Walker?

Would rather that than paying what he's supposedly asking

Moore was open a few times but trubisky went elsewhere or was rushed.

Can’t argue that. Cap isn’t going up fast enough gotta keep infusing young talent.

Wow, that was impressive by both rookies,  that's what I expect from Sanders, 

[Sojourner]

Deone Walker looked pretty promising. If it continues he has to make the team. 
 

Landon Jackson had some terrible moments, hope he can figure it out.

It took McDermott about 10 games in 2023 to fio on defence.  But if you remember after the game against Philly, their defence was playing at an insane level down the stretch 

 

It was. That is fair. But early in the year was rough.

God forbid…, Mr 13 seconds, yikes!

 

Of all the people that was on Leslie is way down the list.

[Big Blitz]

Meanwhile, Dabol who clearly is desperate to win games, and can’t stand McD, game planned to throw at Tre White, and threw like 7 RB Screens

Make the team? Walker is a lock!  No way he gets cut.
