Tua's not been playing - he's been injured so hard to blame any of this on Tua lol

but i thought their offensive weapons would be more dangerous and i thought their defence would be far more stout especially with how they competed when they didnt have any talent on their roster...
Tua is trash

Ugh... but I'm ok with this. We need him healthy next week more so tonight. Chargers have home field implications on the line, so save him for next week.

I think we win 35-13 tonight, let's hope Wink has some plans to test Wentz's ankles tonight.

Bills schedule is so god damn easy, fuck the AFCE

Yea unless an injury occurs Bills are taking the #1 seed. We just need to focus on winning the North. I’d love to think ahead to the #2 seed but we’ve got a brutal schedule with 6 AFC north games, Pack, Rams, and Chargers.

yes we do. It's game by game for us. Lets not rush the season by.

We finally found our Hurst replacement!



This is exactly what I’ve been waiting for. I think Boykin would make a stud TE.

Boykin as an outside WR: meh...

Boykin as a hybrid TE-Big slot weapon: gimme gimme!

interesting it would make some sense given his struggles working on the boundary to have him work out of the slot where he's less likely to have guys press him hard

whenever people talk about him as a TE possibility though i always rail against it because he may run TE routes but he's not going to be a TE in the running game so it makes very little difference honestly - it means he's not likely to replace hurst in that way because hurst's utility came from his ability to be an in-line or motion blocker and a receiver - boykin's a good downfield blocker not an in-line blocker and he's always looked a bit uncoordinated when going in motion pre-snap

Why is Jeff acting like this was the plan all along. 1, even if it was I kinda doubt the Ravens are telling Jeff their offensive strategies. 2, why didn't he report it ages ago. That would be his job. This sounds like nonsense to me

he'll have to prove he can do the things that he's not proven he can do in games the first 2 seasons of his career... i.e. matchup physically at the catchpoint and through the route
and for this reason, I haven't been for him being a TE. No way he has enough physicality and has never shown it.

in camp there are often restrictions on some of the personnel and usage things they can report like the year where pat ricard was being used as a fullback (until they finally showed it off in one of the later preseason games)

and how they're not supposed to talk sometimes about which OL are lining up with the 1st team (like in 2020 with Tyre winning the RG starting job)

my guess is with boykin suddenly out that there was no reason to report any of it and we didnt get to see him in preseason at all
