wonder if the pats try and make a run at suh or if they just save their cash for revis island

i can't think of a scenario in which they have interest in suh

It's hard to say, it seems like some speed rushers do really well going from a 4-3 to a 3-4. I doubt that Suh has rarely dropped back into coverage in Detroit and a 3-4 end definitely drops back to cover people at some point.

My guess is that Suh is such a physical beast, it probably doesn't really matter where you put him on the line as you got to get two guys on him.

seems like a salary dump first and foremost bc mccoy was meh by his previous standards but not like, really bad - who they clearing cap space for

if the bills can't make the playoffs this year, they have some serious 'splaining to do

not sure the upgrade from spiller to mccoy helps them as much as losing alonso hurts them

...probably mark sanchez. I hope not, for the sake of buffalo's sanity, but I could totally see it

yeah i can't form a more coherent thought than this

call all destroyer, Wednesday, 4 March 2015 01:58 (nine years ago) link

1. i'm high on shady, mediocre season or not
2. the 2014 bills were a 9 win team with a top five defense
3. awesome wrapped f-250 or whatever

I'd say chip is the kind of a coach who needs to be given a pretty free hand. He may fail or he may succeed, but if it isn't on his own terms he will almost certainly fail, so you may as well hand him the reins and see where he takes you. It may take him a couple of tries in the nfl to get the hang of it, but his whole value is his willingness to experiment.

Aimless, Wednesday, 4 March 2015 02:04 (nine years ago) link

xp a 9 win team with a top-5 defense is still their exact ceiling.

call all destroyer, Wednesday, 4 March 2015 02:06 (nine years ago) link

combined winning percentage of 2015 opponents is .480, only five playoff teams, ten wins doesn't seem out of the question to me.

“@CCrulesNY: @36westbrook can we resign you?” Not so Chip can cut me for an Oregon player

damn, they do have a lot of oregon dudes on the roster

johnny crunch, Wednesday, 4 March 2015 03:32 (nine years ago) link

I'm almost betting the reason to move McCoy is to open up some budget for another deal. The Eagles needed a LB and they got one on a rookie contract that might be decent.

RB just doesn't seem to be that respected a position now in the NFL. You have a good line and a guy that can carry the ball, go forward without fumbling and you can get a running game. Denver has gone through a bunch of different 1000 yard rushers. B-more switched gears with a backup and seemed to improve last year.

otm re modern rbs

men without hat tips (Hunt3r), Wednesday, 4 March 2015 13:13 (nine years ago) link

saw interesting comment on twitter about how eagles are way out in front in the nfl for using biometrics to track player decline and saying that you really don't want to take a big ticket player whom they are willing to let go

Any rugby fans have anything to say about this guy: http://www.49ers.com/news/article-2/NRL-Star-Jarryd-Hayne-Signs-Three-year-Deal-with-49ers/fe2ff155-d3a5-4468-a4d6-fe6c76ac4ce9

schwantz, Wednesday, 4 March 2015 17:03 (nine years ago) link

i would imagine someone that size playing those positions in rugby is going to project to an anquan boldin type. if he picks up route concepts well he could be a player.

Roberto Spiralli, Wednesday, 4 March 2015 17:19 (nine years ago) link

i do not know the individual, he plays "rugby league"

I don't expect this will be the answer to Buffalo's qb problem.

Johnny Fever, Wednesday, 4 March 2015 18:17 (nine years ago) link

#betterthansanchez

or jake locker, or manuel, seems like he was the best of a weak market?

slothroprhymes, Wednesday, 4 March 2015 18:51 (nine years ago) link

cassel move is fine but if the buffalo staff are not already working on a plan to play 2015 without a qb then they are doing it wrong.
