    For a board that cried for years that li Donte was a bad pick as high as he went in the draft it is amazing that the same is not said about Spiller. He is a role player and once he loses a step at all he can't fulfill the role. I am not knocking him as a football player. I am knocking the Bills for once again selecting a player way too high in the draft.

     

    Especially true when you consider they jettisoned the league's quintissential ALL-purpose back (power, breakaway, hands) when they got him.

  2. I don't feel like looking it up but how many 7 game winning streaks has the franchise had? '65? '88? '90? '91? Likely only 2 of those years. I'll check back in after a few hours after someone does the research.

     

    Ah yes, the annual 'why can't a 3-6 team run the table' thread. I look forward to this one every November!

     

    I aspire to be mathematically alive in December. That is the true test of a great season in this era.

    i agree with this to a certain extent, but i have to play devil's advocate here. if he is on the team and his heart and head are not in the game, if he is not giving forth the effort and commitment demanded to play in the nfl, then he is doing a huge disservice to his teammates and coaches. if this man has no more love for the game and no will to carry on, it is better to leave now then become a distraction/locker room cancer.

     

     

    butler seemed to be a lot more passionate about his life off the field than on, and i have no ill will towards him. in fact, i have a lot of respect for him. to be an nfl player i think you need to be all in, it's definitely not a career choice you can just half-@$$.

     

    Butler was becoming a damn good tackle. If he was doing that with half the effort he could have been all pro going all in.

  4. Here are some of my faves:

     

    Loss v. cleveland on the road in 07 when we were 7-6 and in the playoff hunt.

     

    The shellacking at the hands of Jets at home in '11 when were 5-2 going in (exposed the team as a fraud just like Chris Carter told us).

     

    Loss on the road to the Dolphins in '08, blowing a second half lead (would have gone 6-1).

     

    Loss at home to SF in '08

     

    Loss on the road to the Bucs wk 2, 05 (maybe this Losman thing was not such a good idea)

     

    Loss at home to Dolphins in 00 (maybe this Johnson thing was not such a good idea)

     

    Shellacking at home on SNF (we were flexed in) to NE in 07 to end 4 gm win streak (NE scores TOUCHDOWNS on 7/7 possessions).

    This.....times 1000!!! I am hoping that once EJ is back (which he finally is) he will settle in and start playing like everyone expected him too. If this happens, I can definitely see the Bill's taking the division next year. Their Defense is looking top 10 and the offense once they stop making :wallbash: mistakes, could be top 10 as well.

    And what's your plan for keeping Pettine around next year. Everyone knows this D is vastly improved from the one yielding 1200 yards over 2 games last year?

  6. Manuel seem to be pretty good at calling plays and spotting the open receiver but his out pattern and over the top throws are weak. Brady came into the league with the same type of strengths and weaknesses though his natural arm strength does not compare with EJs.. Brady's progress as a passer throughout his career has been remarkable and there is no comparable QB in that regard. It's almost as if he grew a better arm.

  7. Jeff Tuel should never play QB in an NFL game again. He sucks and if he plays, it will be a schit show.

     

    From what tuell showed in the browns game I would literally rather see Fred Jackson at QB running 100% wildcat. Could not do worse than the about 13 straight 3 and outs tuell has put up between the skins dress rehearsal game and the browns. Hard to figure out why he is on the roster still.
