The Texans took the Bills to the wire in Buffalo two years ago. Now i know Buffalo has improved a lot since then(atleast i hope so) but so has the Texans. They are by no means a lock for anyone this year. Also Atlanta in Atlanta at the end of the year is going to be a fight. Atlanta will probably be fighting it out with New Orleans for the division. So that game will be hard as hell. I like you optimism. And you atleat provide thought and reason. And at this point it is all speculation. But to me the team that drops way off this year is the Tennesse Titans. I like 9-7 for this team maybe 10-6. Hell i would take 8-8 as long as it is meaningfull football in January.

Yeah i thought the same thing. Only thing i can think is his agent was trying to keep an injury quiet so teams would not think he was damaged goods. I watched a lot of Tech games this year. He did not really stand out all the much to me. Wish him well but he has a lot to prove. Maybe getting picke din the second will motivate him.

We shall wait and see. At this point it is all speculation. But some guy saying a DL looks good in shorts at practice is just silly. If i remember right the Panthers also got the LB last year that dropped from PSU. How did he do last year????

The first weekend in September should kick off the season. I know it is a holiday weekend, but lots of people have off on Monday so more could go to the game from out of town. And seriously how many you guys would not go to the game? You are gonna tell me you would rather be at the lake or a bbq? Hell have the game on. Should keep the Bye week. Just go one extra week at the end. You would have the Super Bowl the second week in February. Or you could cut it down to one week between the Confrence championship game and the Super Bowl. Thats how it was for the Bills in 90.

HAHA. wow. ok. i give. But i must say you and i really dont have a dog in the fight at the end of the day. If the family is ok with the punishment, then why shouild you not be? I mean really? Save all the legal mumbo jumbo crap and talk like a human being. Is it because you are afraid you are going to be on the streets of Miami heading home from work at 7 am. and get hit by Stallworth?

I think every fan would like to see an 18 game regular season with maybe a 2 game preseason. This would allow rookies and journeymen to see time in two full preseason games. Starters would see very limited time in the preseason. But the NFL will have to expand the roster. I believe right now you can have 45 on the side line on game day. And have 53 men on the roster. You would probably need to expand that out to maybe 53 on the sideline and 65 on the team.The other 12 can be practice players and guys that could be used depending on opponent/injuries. You would have to add atleast one more round to the draft. Also could use the UFL as a farm type system. Put the UFL teams in smaller markets. Let them play in college stadiums of division 2 and three teams. What you guys think? Like the idea of an 18 game regular season?

Yeah, but i bet if all of you recieved a couple million each, then you would be much happier and more content with the situation.

Seriously ? So who exactly do you think is/ was the safety for Buffalo. Sorry bud but if you think Scott was the answer then there is a reason you do what you do for a living and the scouts and FO does what it does.

The Judge in the case stated that Stallworth had never committed a serious crime before. The man was not in a crosswalk when he was struck. And Stallworth co operated 100% with the authorties. The second part about why he got off so lightly is that he settled a civil suit with the family already. Terms were not disclosed to my knowledge, but the family told the judge they did not want to prosecute much further. So yes haveing money did help him out. But if the victims family is ok with it then you should be too.

Seen it many times fellas. Still remember going to the movies to see it. So no i am not that young. And no not that old either. But hands down Wedding Crashers and Old School kick its but. But so does Animal House. Revenge of the Nerds was a funny film. Probably one of the funniest of the 80s. But that is not saying all that much.

I think Ryan should have another great season. Honestly Roddy White is a true number one guy. He finally had a real qb throwing to him and he flourished. Harry Douglas is a faster version of Wess Welker. Turner is a beast and Norwood is a great 3rd down/change of pace back. Only thing Ryan was missing was a legitimate pass catching TE. Dimitrof took care of that (and gave up little in return) I like what they did on D for the draft. As long as the Falcons keep Vangorder they will be ok. Never seen a guy do more with less then he did last year.

Ah i hit a nerve. It was just some witty banter like your little qoute. Sorry to offend. And no i am 9 y/o. Thank You

Yeah because you aren't getting any.

Dont play fantasy football at all. And i would probably have called a lot of you guys nerds back in the day. However we are all brothers now in our support for the Bills. Any you guys keeping an eye on Matt Ryan? Just got Gonzolaz, already has Roddy White, Jenkens, and Harry Douglass. Line should hold up pretty good.

That is your way of looking at it. If Scott is so good why did he not stick around on the Falcons? Last time i checked they needed some safety help too. Scott was the best other option before Byrd. Now it is Byrd and Whittner. Oh and Scott was drafted in the secnd round by the Falcons to play CB, he was to slow and never worked out. They cut him and Buffalo picked him up.

Could not agree more with you my friend. Lots of guys here know dates and salaries and stats. But have no clue about the actual game itself.

Never said he wasn't good. Just said he should not be a starter. The Bills must have thought the same thing or they would not have drafted Byrd.

Vick was just released by the Falcons today. His next step is getting Goddell to reinstate him. Then the media hype starts. And then he is back in the league. Jax anyone? Not like anyone goes to their games to protest him there.

Loved that too. McCarver has a great voice, only problem is he knows it.

Deion did have a few good years early on in baseball. I can remember him taking a helicopter from the football game he played in for the Falcons, to Fulton County Stadium to join the Braves for a playoff game. If memory serves me right he homered in the game that night. He was a decent leadoff man his first couple years. He was an incredible cover corner for the begining of his career as well. I think alot of people forget what he did those first 3-5 years out of FSU. Due to the fact that he continued to play football for so long.Bo was good dont get me wrong. But my money is on Deion. Part of being a great athlete is longevity. IMO

The article stated the Bills cut these five guys to get down to 75 players. You can only have 80 players on the team in the offseason. Hopefully this means the Bills will start signing some of their 8 draft picks. Joel Bills is an interesting story. Have a feeling the Bills are maybe trying to sneak him thru waivers and resign him to the practice squad. Bell is a mammoth guy that hasnt played the game long. He is learning and could develope. He will need a few years before any team knows what he has to offer. IMO.

Ok the fact that i have to explain this tells me what i am dealing with. The phrase 'tallest midget' refers to the fact that Scott is the most talented out of a very talentless bunch. KO has never panned out and Wedling is a special teamer. Scott is a back up at best. That is why Russ Brandon and the boys took Byrd. It has nothing to do with height. And i spoke with anoth scout whose exact words were that Byrd will make an 'impact this year'. This scout works for another team that drafted a safety later in that same round. Oh and calling people retard, just makes you look even more ignorant. Damn the arrogance of some people on this board is astonishing. Especially when it is coupled with the ignorance. ans4e64, you my friend, are hopeless.

You like Scott at SS? Or is it that he is the tallest midget at the position? Sorry but i dont like Scott as a every down safety. He is and has always been a back up. In Byrd the Bills got a player that will make an immediate impact this season. He will probably stand out more then any other player the Bills drafted this year. Not saying anything against Brown i hope he does a great job. But lets put the pads on and hit for real before we pass judgement. And he is probably taking first team reps because Peppers is a no show.

I have heard all this talk about Mcnally, and i even bought into it for awhile. Then i started thinking, did the Bills have a dominating offensive line and i missed it? No they did not. He might have been a good instructor, maybe good at teaching individuals the fundementals of the game, but as a unit the Oline was never dominating under him. Then news came out of Philly that they are haveing to coach up Peters. Now is that a product of poor Bills coaching, btw everyone credits McNally as the guy who turned Peters into the LT he is. So i dont think McNally is such a loss as everyone thinks. I would rather watch a young progressing Oline with a lot of potential, then an Oline with a bunch of underachieving vets. To me it seems like the Bills went across the Oline and said keep him and him(Walker and Butler) id like to keep him but cant (Peters) and he is a good swingman/backup guy so keep him(Chambers). Everone else goes pretty much. And to be honest i cant arguee with it one bit. One definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again, and expecting different results. The Bills FO (and most of us) saw the Oline was underachieving and made some bold and drastic moves. I for one give them credit. How long it takes them to come together is the key to this season. If they give Edwards time and open lanes for Lynch and the boys, then this will be a fun ride!!!! Oh and you guys that say it isnt going to happen are just as right as those of us who say it can happen!!!

Exactly. BB i have a feeling you started this thread for attention. You got it. As any guy here that ever played football at any level, pee wee, high school, college, or pro knows nothing is accomplished for real till the pads go on. Once you start putting the shoulder pads on, then the men go to the front and the boys to the back. Honestly do you know the difference between a football and a watermelon?
