Wait, when did Quinn beat us? Don't you remember Rian Lindell kicking that 47 yard field goal and then being mobbed by his teammates before we made one last defensive stop to beat the Browns? Yeah, that was the game that got us back on track for making the playoffs. Honestly, I doubt that the Bills would have even won the Superbowl if Lindell misses that kick, seeing as we just barely snuck into the playoffs after the dramatic victory over the Patriots in week 17.

I voted "just ok". Let me explain. It's not because they aren't nice to look at, it's because the pictures are not a rare commodity. You can type "hot girl" into google image search and find the same stuff.

I think 3 years, 18 million is too much for him. If he's honestly looking for more than that, he'll probably be disappointed by the Bengals' offer too.

Do you ever get tired of copy/pasting emails you get from conservative friends?

It's a product of the media. Brady versus Manning, instead of Patriots versus Colts. Romo versus Manning, instead of Cowboys versus Giants.

The only thing Roy Williams has ever contributed is a bad attitude and the Horse Collar rule.

Is this sarcasm?

There's got to be some problem between Cutler and McDaniels. Why are they trying so hard to shop him?

Well, seeing as you don't know EITHER of the guys' names, you're not fit to criticize their signings are you?

Theoretically? Yes. Pragmatically? No. In a small market with just two teams that nearly EVERYBODY in the city cares deeply about, I believe the journalists are intrinsically allowed to take certain emotional liberties that larger market journalists would not. Case in point, Rick Jeanneret. He's the furthest thing away from unbiased, but folks who aren't Sabres fans don't listen to his broadcasts on a consistent basis, so it's not big deal. In New York City, Rangers fans, Islanders fans, and Devils fans all read the same paper. A columnist with an obvious pro-Islanders slant wouldn't be tolerated. At the Buffalo News, such a problem doesn't exist. Bills and Sabres fans take a ride on the emotional roller coaster every time a game is on tv, and when you flip open the News the next morning it's almost comforting to know that the guy talking about the team was on the same ride. Sullivan's usage of vapid pessimism is often distasteful to me, but he cares and I like that. Just my humble opinion.

Which is honestly befitting of the city. When it comes to having Bi-Polar fans, you've got Philadelphia, Buffalo, and then everybody else. Sullivan has his schtick, and he turned that schtick into a popular column. I'm not the hugest fan, but I respect the niche that he's dug out for himself.

Nah, man. This lady had to pound the damn thing at least five times before it broke. For my girl, it only takes one.

I met Alicia when I traveled to Brown about a month ago. She is freakin hot!

I don't disagree that he's done his time in the eyes of the law. But football players are essentially employees of the NFL (and their team of course)...so why should he be hired back? It frustrates me that he gets to go right back to living the high life after a relatively short stint in prison where he was probably more of a celebrity among the inmates than anything. Just my guess.

+1 There are very few things that could prevent me from supporting the Bills, but signing a man who made a habit of intentionally and brutally murdering innocent dogs (seemingly without remorse)...that would be my breaking point. How is Goodell even letting this guy back into the NFL?

Look everybody! It's a new poster who's rational!

Have you watched a Pistons game lately? Puts you right to sleep.

My point was that DTs can still be incredibly crucial to pass rushing, even though they don't pick up as many sacks. I believe the reason for that is that a DT can't blindside a quarterback for the most part. If a DT bursts through the line, makes the QB panic and throw an INT...it's just as valuable as a DE who stealthily running behind the QBs back and stripping the ball.

I wouldn't really say it's "all about sacks". It's all about pressuring the quarterback into making hasty/dumb decisions and getting a few sacks per game while you're at it. DTs don't get as many sacks because they can't approach the QB from the blindside (that's also why left defensive ends get more sacks than right defensive ends), but DTs CAN disrupt the pocket and decrease the amount of time the QB has to release the ball. They are also more important that DEs in a run stuffing capacity. Marcus Stround is good at both of those things, but unfortunately none of his line-mates is anywhere close to his level so he draws the double team almost every single time. That said, I think our talent at DT is better than our talent at DE and that a pass rushing DE is the biggest concern on our D-line.

Yeah, the Norwood thing was clearly a joke. I wonder why Tim would quote him out of context like that...

Yep... Kurt Warner: Worthless Ray Lewis: Worthless Jermaine Phillips: Worthless Phillip Buchanon: Worthless Derrick Ward: Worthless Darren Sharper: Worthless Marvin Harrison: Worthless Should I go on?

Yup, because all the free agents have been signed.

He seems like a smart guy and he isn't half bad as a writer, but he is the biggest know-it-all you'll find.

Has anybody else noticed that all of the geniuses who start these "baaaahhh why don't we sign somebody whose name I recognize?" threads can't spell worth sh*t? There has to be a correlation yes?
