How come Joe Brady never gets hurt

The pessimism here is a little over the top.

 

This team hasn't really passed the eye test so far this year - but we were riding pretty high last week after beating what we know is a very good KC team, despite their record.  We absolutely didn't show up against Miami, but it's not  like we have skated through previous seasons without having a few ugly games.  

 

I'm feeling pretty confident about Sunday.  Many here & nationally are ready to write the Bills off this season and will be looking at this game as confirmation.  I think the team & coaching staff hear all of that chatter & will show up in a big way.

 

We are the WORST 6-3 team in the history of the league per the fans.

 

Even if we drop to 6-4, this team still has Super Bowl aspirations.  We were 6-6 in 2021 when we turned it on.  Last year we lost two in a row and then a few weeks later couldn't stop the Rams - finished 13-4.

 

This team will probably go 13-4 or 12-5.  If that's wild card, credit to the Pats.  I'm still thinking this team wins the division and we will see how they do in the playoffs.

Josh Palmer is practicing. Gabe says he ready to go. Let’s go!

 

Palmer

Coleman

Shakir

Gabe

Samuel

 

That should be the core going forward.

Is there a reason why we aren’t confident in the guys we’re getting back, along Josh playing his arse off after the embarrassment last week?

 

Genuine question.  I’m not trying to be condescending. 
 

It honestly feels like everyone is worried about what you point out yet nobody has confidence in our guy to do the same.  
 

Thats quite the depressing acknowledgment of where we’re at right now. 

something is broken and disjointed on this team. Whether that is Josh, the talent, the offensive style, the coaching, all of the above… whatever anyone wants to blame it on doesn’t matter. It’s not something that usually gets fixed in a week. 
 

does that mean we can’t win? No but it means I don’t have confidence in it.

That's a lot of limited to full participation. Nice. Could be the shot in the arm we need.

Replace Coleman with Moore and I think those are our active WRs this week.

I see the Bills are wearing their Throwback All-White Uniforms this week......

 

Too bad Tampa isn't wearing their "Creamsicle" Throwbacks as well.

That would've been fun.

 

Tampa Bay never played the Bills in Buffalo during the regular season until 2009. So, they should've worn the creamsicle uniforms for the final year of the Ralph.

This was one of the reasons why the NFL changed the schedule rotation to what it is now.

This is your shot to see Colman in the slot. Put Gabe and Palmer on the outside with Colman inside. Everyone says that’s where he is at his best. No kinkaid, Shakir is hurt. Let’s see what a tall group of WRs can do here. And all 3 can block it up too. Maybe we accidentally unlock something 

[Steptide]

Looks like the weather could be cruddy Sunday.

 I agree except for Coleman. He doesn't deserve the reps.

Just heard on ESPN that Irving is trending towards playing this Sunday but not Godwin.

Irving playing would be a challenge.

 

But - we should embrace that.  We need this team to really show us something - not just beat up on a banged up team.

I have to say that is looking good.  Let's hope for no injuries during the week.

Awesome deep track LP.

 

My wish is the season is not going to be off of Nashville Skyline, "I threw it all away".

I still have faith.

Don't think Gabe will/ should take all the snaps, so I'd split him with Shavers. I probably would only use Coleman in the red zone. I also would play Moore and not Samuel.    Palmer   Shakir/ Moore   Kincaid   Davis/Shavers  with a lone back. I'd also like to see them slip Cook through the hole and let him rip down the sideline for a deep shot.

Who was our WR's and How did Josh look compared to this year?    Apples and Hand Grenades is how different the 2021 and 2025 teams are.

Its sad but we have to hold our breath during practices this week.
