TrueBlueGED

This about sums up how I feel going into this season.

Except this isn't necessarily true. The idea that the crappy players will be gone after being given a chance is only even a little likely if the coach already thinks they're crappy and is merely given them a chance to prove him wrong. I think it's entirely possible....nay, probable, that these players are where they are because the coach values them. There simply any compelling reason to assume Krueger is willing to adversely affect the team for weeks in order for bad players to prove they're bad.

Yikes. Certainly hope for the best.

It's almost as if calling something "fake news" is code for "it's true."

Yup. If this team isn't in the low-90s I'll want him fired. Expect? No. But if we toss another 70-point stinker, I don't think he's as safe as the conventional wisdom holds.

If there's not tangible improvement, I don't care what Pegula told him, Botterill isn't seeing 5 years. Good thing we weren't starting at ground zero then when Botterill took over. And seriously I don't get the obsession with Krueger's words. Find me a coach that comes in and says "We're going to play conservative, laid-back hockey and let the other team make fancy plays that result in goals." They all know what they're supposed to say.

Now that the roster looks pretty set, this is what I'd go with: Skinner-Eichel-Rodrigues Olofsson-Johansson-Reinhart Vesey-Mittelstadt-Sheary Girgensons-Larsson-Okposo Dahlin-Miller McCabe-Jokiharju Gilmour-Ristolainen I expect things to look considerably different from what I'd do.

Interesting that Pilut got assigned to Rochester. Does that mean he's about ready to come back from surgery? That'd be a little ahead of schedule, no?

Now you've moved the goalposts. If your argument is Zay should make an effort, okay, whatever. But the INT isn't on him. It's on the horrible decision and underthrown.

??? Zay Jones is terrible, but that INT was a Peterman-like toss. Just awful. Allen played like bad Jay Cutler today, including that throw.

Of course he'd be kicked out! But that's way different than saying the refs determined the game when the Bills threw 4 INTs, had a punt blocked and returned for a TD, and tossed away challenges and timeouts like the coach was allergic.

The Bills have nobody to blame but themselves. The refs didn't turn the ball over 4 times.

And the lack of ejection. But yea, not a bad game call overall.

If we had 3 TOs, we'd have 1 more desperation crack at this thing.

Barkley barely has more arm strength than Peterman, but he's accurate when able to set his feet

I don't know why NE stopped running it, but thanks!

Should go for it. Also, a TO or 3 would be useful about now.

HOW IS THAT NOT INTENTIONAL GROUNDING?

Please also find a new punter.

Most teams don't have our defense. Please cut Zay Jones.

Same. You don't beat NE with field goals. Also, I liked our defense having them backed up even if we missed.

This is easily Daboll's worst game as OC. And we can cut Zay Jones whenever.

Just remember, the QB injury is your fault. Now, please somebody rip Brady's right shoulder off.

HOW THE ***** DID THE PATRIOT NOT GET EJECTED FOR THAT?!?!

Sean McDermott game management. Drink.
