The Buffalo Bills are in the midst of true struggle. After racing out to a 4-0 start where they look to be almost sleep-walking through inferior competition, now they look to be asleep at the wheel of an out-of-control car.

The Buffalo Bills are already incredibly thin at cornerback. They got even thinner late in the first half against the Atlanta Falcons when Christian Benford left the game with a leg injury.

On the opening play of the game, Buffalo Bills receiver Josh Palmer caught a Josh Allen bomb for 45 yards. His second catch was for 15 yards, but as soon as he was pulled down by the defender, his leg bent awkwardly. He was down on the field and went to the blue medical tent. […]

Like the Nats in general They are now nearly what I feared they'd be last post. Worst of the rest. Only the Athletics are standing in their way. They are clearly behind the Marlins now. Hell so are the Braves. Things have gotten so bad the team is trying to get you excited for the idea of Paul DeJong coming back and DHing even though he can't hit. What the hell are we doing here people? Kick anyone over 27 to the curb. Just play kids...

Jay Bendlin/Atlanta United A little bit of spice in the preseason While the preseason is a terrible time to put tons of stock into the analysis of how a soccer team will actually play real matches, there are still gems of info that can be gleaned from watching a team as it ramps up towards the first league game. Atlanta United played Memphis 901 to a 1-1 draw on Saturday out in Athens, in a game that was rife with hard tackles, cards, dust-ups, and everything one would expect from a mid...
