I feel bad for Tua and man he can't take one more hit. PoorMansCamaro do you know who would make the call on his medically induced retirement? I'm thinking if it was an NFL affiliated doc they'd say he can play again so he doesn't get that 124 mil without playing for it. Realistically though we've seen enough and it made me cringe when Al Michaels started talking about the 10 days off he'd have to recover before playing again. This is a fighter that can't take one more shot to the jaw. Get him out of the ring.

I'm going to Bills/Jags on the 23rd and am hoping for some redemption after that London crap last year. Go Bills!

I would imagine it would have to be the team doctor and/or the 3rd party doctor would have to suggest he retire.

Either way, tank for Cam Ward in my book. Tua is not the long term answer anymore. Too much of an injury liability at this point.
If I were Tua I would make sure I was forced to medically retire. The NFL would comply. They would have to.

There is already a fair chance he has permanent brain damage. Taking further risk would be beyond stupid.

Lots of the 11-1 doesn't matter they(Bills) were better team back then.

It's too hot and the Bills will melt LMAO

JA17 didn't even break a sweat

I think the Bills just shocked the NFL world back to reality.
You need to pump the brakes a bit

The Bills aren't shocking anybody into anything until they can beat the Chiefs.

The cop involved with Hill incident has been suspended 6 times prior. Time for his ass to get fired.

Wow thats pretty bad.

I heard he was a 23 or 27 year officer something like that.

That is a long time to be on the street but I guess bad cops with a suspension history don't get promoted...thankfully...but not so good for the public.

Probably has PTSD after that long.

95 wrecked the Bills in the playoffs last year not Mahomee.

The defense carried them to the SB not Mahomee.

They are a much weaker team on that side of the ball this year.

The Cards took away Kincaid they doubled and tripled him...Allen found other targets open

The Fins took away Coleman so what the game plan didn't revolve around him.

It was James Dalvin Cooks time to shine.


The O line is BIG and athletic they are going to be problem for anyone the Bills play whether they run or throw.

I think Sal Carpaccio said it best on GR55... what if last year was just one last ride for the old guys to see if they could get it done?

They helped build the culture of winning and a lot of these young guys have been around for 2-3 years of it.

When McD and Beane took over this team 8 years ago they had a mentor in every position group they really do not need that anymore.

Did you see how Cook ran away from Poyer? he left him in the dust and that happened a lot last year.

They are younger faster stronger and hungry and thats a good combination.

BTW watch TUA run into Damar Hamlin and see how TUA coming full bore doesn't even move him back.

Instead TUA's neck folds up like an accordion.

Like I said earlier Tua was lucky it wasn't Williams or Rapp as Damar is not a real big hitter.

So which practice squad QB is going to get snatched up by the Fins?

Everyone thinks it will be Mike White but I don't think so.

He signed with Buffalos practice squad after being cut because he wanted to come here to work with Ron Curry and Joe Brady and to hang around with JA17.

He does not need to sign with them...he could turn them down....and I think he will.

He likes Buffalo and the fans gave him a real nice welcome...far greater than he expected.

He gets the Buffalove seal of approval for his gunslinger mentality and toughness.

He may not be as much now but before the "incident" Damar was a pretty big hitter.

I couldn't find any video from his rookie year, but check out his college reel.

A lot of those plays show what a good solid tackler he is with good anticipation for the play/ball.

He did bring the boom though.

I like what I have seen so far this year from him and I think he is going to be a pretty solid player.

Rapp and Hamlin looked a lot more comfortable out there against the Fins and played 92% of the snaps in the first 3 1/2 quarters.
