disco dan benching him w/o putting him in the presser killed that deal
- homiedclown



I have first hand knowledge that the reason for the benching was a result of someone doing a little day drinking that afternoon.

The light obviously turned on imagine what he can do with a full season now maybe he’ll have a point per game

Things are looking pretty bright for Sam right now

They weren't horrible, which surprised me. Peterman was sharp. Carolina's third and fourth string we're a lot better than ours.

Ryan Stimson just wrote a nice piece for the Athletic. I’m not going to copy and paste it because it would take up two pages. The article in a nutshell

Reinhart was our best shot suppression forward last season. And believe it or not, was the best driver of play offensively for us last season as well even ahead of Eichel (I’m just as shocked as everyone reading this post). The main difference between the first half of this season and the last half was his shooting %, and obviously the fact he was playing with better players. However he impacted O’Reilly’s game moreso then Sam benefitting from playing with O’Reilly. Stimson makes the case that the best thing for the team might be to play him as the 2nd line C.

Reinhart has no leverage

- Boss34


If the players had no leverage, every RFA deal would be league minimum. Nonsensical argument.

Liked the way the 1st team offense was working. Defense was okay, but ultimately didn't stop Newton. If this was a full game McCaffrey was having a big one.

Still, the offense looked better than I thought. Allen can throw the ball out of the stadium. Murphy looks solid for a RB3 for us, seeing as McCoy is still up in the air somewhat, good to know Ivory and Murphy could possibly handle duties.

Benjamin looked great. Hope it's not simply because it was vs the Panthers. Harrison Phillips was fantastic. He was the steal of the draft for us. Couple nice tackles and a sack during the game.

Your cats disagree, that's a nonsensical arguement.

Sit out a year?

Trevor Siemian has a super bowl ring. Bills should have traded for him while they had the chance instead of drafting that Allen bum

Clown, you are bang-on. Anyone thinking that Reinhart is signing any AAV deal that starts with a "4" is smoking some serious ganja.
