Almost a third of the Bills' salary cap is dead space. This season was DOA before it started.

I mean, you're probably not wrong but the Bills were finishing last without trying to tank anyway.

Get this: some people don't drink at Super Bowls and then somehow remember what happens at them.

I don't understand those people either. I remember what happens right before half, then I remember confetti. Somewhere in there is a funny M&Ms commercial or something.

Yeah, all we'll do is probably wreck the QB we invested a king's ransom worth of players and draft capital into.
Also, the current regime did plenty to help create that dead space and made some questionable investments with what money they did have(Star Lotulelei and Trent Murphy come to mind).
There are still 15 games to go though.

Yeah, after I posted I listened to what Quinn said and it does seem like he will be back this season which is good. Sucks though with CMC, Kamara and Barkley on the schedule in the next few weeks...

They cut him because they thought he'd be suspended. No announcement's been made yet, and their performance showed they need bodies, so if he isn't currently suspended and can suit up for even one game, they think he'll help.

He's facing a full one year suspension but I guess you're right that we don't know when that will be official. Seems kind of desperate but they're probably getting a good discount at least

Derek Carr is absolutely a.....

/spins the wheel

Buc next season.

edit* stop me if you've heard this one before

quote:

NFL.com's Mike Garofolo reports Lions veterans were "griping" about new coach Matt Patricia during training camp.

Specifically, the "number of rules put in place" and "how hard he worked them" during the summer. The Lions, of course, got blown out of the building in Patricia's debut on Monday. It will be a dynamic to watch as the season unfolds. Ex-Bill Belichick assistants have a way of flying too close to the sun trying to implement his ways elsewhere.

The best piece on former Patriots coach Eric Mangini

https://m.clevescene.com/cleveland/...467&storyPage=3

quote:

As I sit down in the emptiest seat I can find, I notice that players have handwritten notes scattered about their desks and their laps. They are reading over them nervously. Coach Mangini, a doughy thirty-eight- year- old frat boy with parted hair and a butt-chin, walks in and takes his place at the podium, a dip in his lip and a Styrofoam cup in his hand. He starts off by welcoming the two new men who were signed to the team that morning: me and some other dude.

Then:

—To show them how we do things around here, J.P., stand up. J.P. stands.

—There is a quote written above the door to the locker room; what does it say? —Uh, you must choose: the pain of discipline or the pain of regret.

—Very good. You can sit down. Clarence, stand up.

—Sheeit.

He says it under his breath. Muffled chuckles from the audience.

—We have six core values on this team; what are they?

—drat. Okay, um, trust, communication . . . um, hard work . . . umm . . .

Someone whispers from behind him.

—Focus!

—That's right, Clarence, focus. Okay, two more. Silence. —Come on, Clarence . . . Can anyone help him out? From somewhere:

—Intelligence.

—Football is important to you.

—Good. Clarence, you gotta know these. And I'm going to keep calling on you until you do. Sit down. B.J., stand up. Tell me the name and number of every offensive lineman on our roster.

Weaknesses
Running style borders on manic at times
Frenetic pace features flailing arms and excessive upper body movement
Not always as shifty as his movements would lead you to believe
Will cut back into traffic rather than finding less resistance
Below NFL standards for running back size
Aggressive running style combined with 545 carries over last two years has seen Lindsay take plenty of punishment
Struggles to secure throws with pace on them


edit: beaten. I should have just said 5'8.

He outpaces Dion Lewis in most categories there and is dead-on for many year NFL vet Cole Beasley. Just surprised nobody used a late rounder on him. What a find by Denver.

He got a broken leg and now he's loving traumatized at the thought of getting hosed up again so he's the new Captain Checkdown and throws poo poo away under phantom pressure

Like, he was legit throwing balls away with zero pressure in the pocket last night. His pass protection has always been extremely good, he just took a bad hit one time and now he's mentally hosed

The entire NFC South is dead

quote:

The Sports Capitol's Ben Standig reports Bucs CB Vernon Hargreaves (shoulder) will miss the remainder of the season.

Hargreaves went down in the fourth quarter of the Week 1 shootout against the Saints. The No. 11 overall pick in the 2016 draft, Hargreaves missed seven games last season with a hamstring injury and has been a bust to this point in his career. But with Brent Grimes also dinged up and a lot of young, green corners on the roster, it's a tough loss. The Bucs visited with free agent CB Bashaud Breeland on Tuesday and could really use his steady veteran presence.
