Official Buffalo Bills at Carolina Panthers game day thread

The more I watch this game, the more I kind of really want to keep Slye and trade Gano. Something about him I like and he seems to be doing pretty well. I know some say it's easy to do it with no pressure but I'd argue that he does have the pressure that if he doesn't do well he won't play on any team.

(P.S. "Trading" Gano is a comforting pipe-dream because nobody will "trade" for a kicker.  Especially one as inconsistent as Gano.)

Player commentary means nothing to me.

"poo happens" commentary from coaches?  Yeah, that's when you should start feeling uncomfortable.

Player mindsets generally echo that of the staff. We sure seemed fat and happy with our preseason work coming into tonight. I hope that attitude shifts dramatically tomorrow.

Which also applies to the players on the other side of the ball.

In fairness.

For sure... the guys they got who are getting cut certainly outperformed our guys.  

Sucked to watch... but really is meaningless in 2 weeks.

Not trying to downplay this beating... it sure was eye-opening in terms of how good I thought the depth was on this team in some areas... 

But other than wasting 3 hours watching, I don't think it means anything in terms of what to expect of this team (if everyone stays healthy)

Yes.

So we were pretty much agreeing.  :cheers:

What it does mean is an equal method of judgement between two coaching staffs utilizing equivalent talent.

True, but hey, one can still hope. I mean who knows, maybe a needy team would be willing to give a late round pick for a shot lol.

    • My biggest fear with Bryce Young is that he will always do just enough to stick around. He shows flashes and then drops a turd so the hopium is always there. Like his career highlight reel if you cut it up to some hype music and did a YouTube video would actually be quite good. His great plays really, really look good. But after that video you look at his yearly averages for completion percentage, yardage, touchdowns, and virtually every other metric and it is meh as fug. Like you know Bryce is gonna be 13/23 for 157 yards a touchdown and probably a pick.  I will 100% give him his flowers for his athleticism and ability to scramble outside the pocket. I haven’t seen the mythical “super processing ability” he was touted for per se, but he has shown flashes of absolutely elite awareness when it comes to scrambling. The little basketball move he does to shake defensive linemen has almost become a signature move. It’s hard to explain but you know it when you see it he stops on a dime and pivots like he is gonna hit a step back jumper and it has gotten him out of a lot of trouble.  I sincerely, truly, as a vocal Bryce HATER, hope that since we are obviously running with him next year the coaching staff actually tailors plays around his strengths. He needs to be in a pure spread IMO. His size is much less of a hindrance when he can play QB in open space. I feel like most of his highlight reel is from scrambles and play action/bootlegs.
