Hard Knocks has made me nervous because they look extremely dysfunctional but I too think they’ve got a legit shot. The second wild card in the AFC looks very weak right now. They finished last in turnover margin and teams that do that average an increase of at least four wins the following season. Then you consider they have a HUGE upgrade at Tyrod (crazy to think you can actually say this) and/or Mayfield. They added two new running backs, made a huge upgrade at WR (and may add Dez), and the defense should be much better. Quote

Daily, alot of time spent posting Bills/Sabres articles for what appears to be no reward. If he/she gets enjoyment out of it great, but seems odd to me. Several people on TBD haveintimated that he does get some sort of compensation for clickthroughs. He works in IT, so it probably wasn't too difficult to set up a script to do the posting of the various twitter feeds he follows. So, basically he probably makes a relatively small pittance for even less effort. Never could figure out how we were too confrontational for him, but he stays on TBD. :wacko: Quote

The problem is we are way too knowledgeable about hockey for him/her and have too many sources of info that countered his pontifications. At TBD he/she doesnt get called out as often posting irrelevant or national info that is plain wrong. Quote

I have a a few friends that are each throwing in $100 or so on a vegas bet that the Pats don't win the division ? Do your friends want additional bets? I'm open for business on these things! Quote

I like the guy, he does provide a ton of links and information from around, and he was good at starting threads for news and games and what not. My issue, and his I think, was that was about it; he was kind of like a robot, good for those skills but not for any discussion/banter. And any attempt at engaging him or disagreeing with him just ended up in, well, a tantrum Anyways, that's my 2 cents 2 Quote

Hoss Posted August 18, 2018 Report Posted August 18, 2018 The offensive line is getting thrashed. The first play was a great throw from McCarron that Benjamin has to have and then everything else has been garbage. McCoy a few quick bursts. Quote

Hoss Posted August 18, 2018 Report Posted August 18, 2018 Allen getting some run with the first team. Throw to Lee was nice but the throw to Murphy out of the backfield right not was atrocious. Have to work on those because he was never asked to do them in college and clearly has no idea how to. Coschable sutustuon, though. Also, the way the team talks about Coleman gives me the feeling he’s very much on the bubble. Quote
Huckleberry Posted August 18, 2018 Report Posted August 18, 2018 Better keep Allen on the sidelines most of the year if you don't have an O-line Quote
darksabre Posted August 18, 2018 Report Posted August 18, 2018 I'll be honest, Allen looks pretty good. 2 Quote
Hoss Posted August 18, 2018 Report Posted August 18, 2018 What a play there by Allen. Bad play call to go empty against what you know will be a heavy rush but he dodges the free rusher and keeps his eyes down field for the TD. Quote

Doesn't seem too worried about getting hurried, or sacked. Being big probably helps. 1 Quote

I hope it's just preseason stuff, but I hate seeing this staff have Bodine/Ducasse above, like, anyone else, but especially Groy. And Teller looks way better than Vlad Hope Kyle is okay but I don't think he (or Star) will be good this year. They look old and immobile. Like True says, preseason is preseason. Browns were 4-0 last year before losing every single real game, but you can see things like how bad Ducasse is, or how raw Edmunds still is. And I've seen it said fairly often that Allen's pocket presence and ability to keep his eyes downfield are bad, but those are the two things that stick out as POSITIVE to me, besides the laser arm. He lingers on his first read a lot still (though I've seen a few progressions) but on that TD, that was objectively impressive eye-keeping-on-field and pocket poise. He's got the tools, if they can develop him right and he can keep working his ass off. Murphy looks decent too. Our linebackers have played horribly today. Wouldn't be surprised if Edmunds sat to start the year. Quote
