Shameless for Jameless

Rust belt cities always face an uphill battle on recruiting player, coaching and front office talent. Why do you think Wissenhunt turned down the chance to coach the most talented receiver in league history with a franchise QB and a top 5 DT.

Graham's QB Rating is also absolutely sick for his time. You are talking about when tackles could not extend arms and night train lane was free to behead your receiver before the ball got there.

This experiment - hiring the dynasty caretaker - was tried when seifert coached the panthers. He took them from the playoffs right to 1-15 in about 2 years. Caldwells most impressive accomplishment was with the ravens as OC in 2012. But their performance in 13 - essentially being unable to run the ball at all with the strongest armed QB in the league keeping the safeties deep - was equally unimpressive.

You need to factor in that fitz' performance tends to decline.the more important the situation is.

I think in desperation they had Tuel try a flea flicker against Cleveland.

What is there to analyze - it does not take any analysis to see it takes forever for the ball to get out of Winston's throwing hand. A lot of bills fans do not watch a lot of college until the pre draft videos come out.

Was not impressed with Winston first time I saw his highlight video. S-L-O-W release. Takes forever for him to set and throw. Manual has issues but seems to have more NFL upside with his compact throwing motion and effortless downfield throwing ability.

Move it to the new tiger cats stadium. You get the marketing accomplished plus you get a real home crowd.

RJ and JP also passed through Oakland before fading out of the league for good.

In this century the answer is David Carr. Going back a few decades the answer is Ken O'Brien. Always had a huge sack percentage which does not show up in the QB ratings, and so they let him start for 9 years. Had a good arm but pretty much had no ability to sense the pocket collapsing. Always felt the Bills had the advantage against the Jets because of O'Brien's limitations.

Cutler can make all the throws. Fitz cannot make all the throws. There is really no comparison.

The answer for everyone on this board should be NEW ENGLAND! I can't believe no one else sees it this way. Do you think Brady and Bellichick would bring the same fire to winning the division year after year if they finally won a fourth ring? If they win a fourth they quickly fade into oblivion and open up the division.

Lanes are fine - need a N/S power runner under 33 in the first 3 rounds.

No. He hangs onto the ball for starters.

Lewis has shown a higher ceiling than Kolb so focus should be on securing Lewis as a backup.

Holy cow. This looks the SEVENTH straight year of playing the chiefs. Odds have to be staggering for that to happen.

I don't know about that. An alternative drafting model where a QB is drafted each year, year after year, in the first three rounds would have been hard pressed to underperform the current model which has yielded 14 consecutive non-playoff seasons.

It will be interesting to see what the skins do if cousins lights up the QB friendly Georgia dome. Mid round picks typically have weak arms. If he does well I expect they'll start Grossman outdoors weeks 16 and 17 so as to preserve cousins' trade stock.

I don't want to smell for Manziel. I want to let it all go to hell for Manziel.

I have never seen someone that big so flexible. The stresses on the joints have to be off the charts.

Any Bills fan that can have other than the utmost hatred for Tom Dempsey must not have been around for this: http://www.pro-football-reference.com/boxscores/197909020buf.htm?mobile=false I for one am celebrating he is finally out of the record books.

For a team that does not know how to close these games are critical. The team needs to learn how to make plays and win.
