Period. Totally disagree with you, but I respect your opinion. Let’s leave it at that and hope other guys step up.? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, we were excited to see him and he seemed like a great fit. Big ******* deal. When they signed him we knew there was a 75% chance he would suck. He didn't suck and got hurt. Huge difference? We have some bodies on the DLine. Let's see some scheme. Let's see Huff and Hamilcar. Because we would be a better defense and better team with Lawson? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The season is not lost. Our defensive line is our strength and we can make up for Lawson. Our kid quarterback looks like the real deal. We can run the ball. 8 wins is the expectation.

Mike135 Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 So who would have been worse to lose for the season? Zach? Yeah for obvious reasons. Becton? Probably, but Fant n Moses could be decent tackles. Mosley? Yeah. I expect him to lead the D. Quinnen? Nope. Plenty of DT depth. Davis? No. Also some decent WR depth. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was my worst memory in the sense that we were everyones pick to make it to the SB and with all of that excitement along with a beautiful opening day and the season was over 1 quarter into the season If we cant win because Lawson is out, we weren't winning much with him. QB in game one was much worse 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greenbloodblitz Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 I wouldn't use the word cursed, and I'm not making jokes at Lawson's expense. It's just been going on for way too long. My breaking point was the Thanksgiving game against the Pats. Yeah that's right they scored 58 points in 21 seconds! At least that's what it felt like while I was curled up in the fetal position for 3 days after being embarrassed in front of my entire family. But seriously does anybody else remember what player it was that injured himself coming out of the tunnel? I believe it was a free agent former star, possibly a qb? It was a game where like as soon as the broadcast started they said and so and so apparently tripped over a wet towel and he's out for the season? Don't know if it was definitely out for the season but it was definitely somebody got hurt like either during warm-ups or walking out of the tunnel and it was some totally bizarre Jets crap.

In a light rain, he practiced his dropbacks in the end zone and slipped on the Jets' logo that was painted on the artificial-turf at the old Giants Stadium. The injury was so severe that it ended his season. 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post RoadFan Posted August 19, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 19, 2021 I got just a touch of interest back after being numb to this team since Fitz’s 6 picks at Arrowhead…. new QB, new coach, a possible pass rush… and… This.

I really thought and still believe that team in 99 was going to the Super Bowl. I did not expect the team this year to win a whole of games this year - but thought they would be fun to watch and had the youth to build on a create a Super Bowl contender in the next couple of years... Now I'm thoroughly convinced this team is cursed. I'm not one to believe in the supernatural - but there really is no other way to see it at this point. It's more or less ruined football for me. I'll still watch and still cheer, but I KNOW any time something good happens to this team - something terrible will stop it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KRL Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 It stinks to lose Lawson, from what I saw he and Williams were going to be a big problem for offenses. What will be interesting to see is who steps up to grab Lawson's spot on the roster. To me the following DLinemen are going to make the team: Williams Rankins Huff Fatukasi Franklin-Myers Blair Marshall Who takes the last 1 or 2 spots? Rashed Smart Zuniga Shepherd Curry Phillips And will Saleh/Ulbrich move guys around to different spots to get the best pass rushers on the field? Could we see Williams or Rankins at DE in some packages? Interesting coaching decisions coming up 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsFanBurner Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 Why are you guys so broken up about this? Lawson is a good pass rusher but he's not a game wrecker. And it's not like you were going to be legit contenders this year. All you guys should worry about this season is that Zach Wilson and Robert Saleh show growth. You are 2 years away from being Super Bowl contenders if everything goes right. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also if you were paying attention the Jets have not had a legit edge rusher in 15 years. To go along with that the jets have had legions of high priced bum free agents and we finally have one that looks legit. If Stephon Diggs tore his Achilles, I;m sure the brave bills fans would have no angst and just smile and next man up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
