apples and oranges... the story isn't over on both those two just yet tho. How did Aaron Maybin make that transition from speedy DE to OLB? The Bills need players who can stop the run and not another one trick pony with one move

I suppose the Bills didn't get burned enough with Aaron Maybin, now you want to draft a player that didn't play a down all 2010 due to a suspension, guess that doesn't sound any alarm bells or send any red flags to you guys.... http://nwe.scout.com/2/1027958.html Robert Quinn - North Carolina Quinn could easily and probably will get drafted before Ryan Kerrigan, but without playing in 2010 due to some off-the-field issues, there certainly are some risks. Granted, Quinn has physical talent to spare. That said, it remains to be seen whether he has progressed enough mentally on the football field to be able to transition to a very complicated 3-4 system. "This [former] tarheel might be one of the biggest "boom or bust" guys to come out in a while"

First off, Chan Gailey is nothing more then a Dick Jauron clone in the fact that he only improved one area of the team, the passing offense! The running game with Marshawn Lynch, Fred Jackson and supposed new super star RB CJ Spiller got worse. The defense and special teams also went downhill with new coaches and some new players. Second, Chan Gailey showed that he can't work his magic on every QB when he wasted an entire off season, preseason and 2 regular season games on Trent Edwards, only to cut the guy and get nothing for him. Not to mention that Brian Brohm looked horrid in the only game he started while Fitz was injured. Third, Fitz is an accurate QB most of the time...his problem is that he is a gunslinger like Jay Cutler, Brett Favre, and while he can make big plays he also makes mistakes while trying to make those big plays. Considering the supporting cast surrounding Fitz last season in coaches and players... I'd say his play was remarkable in some games! Fitz does have an accuracy problem tho, he is wildly inconsistent at times...there is no getting around that fact, the Bills have a QB they can utilize while they upgrade other areas of the team. Fitz isn't, nor ever will be a "franchise QB". Sometimes its OK to settle for Trent Dilfer for now! The Bills need to upgrade so much on offense from my view, both tackle positions at the very least. Bell is adequate against average teams but shows he can't do his job when its crunch time against a good opponent. Wood and levrite might make it to starter on some of this years playoff teams, most other Bills players wouldn't even make their rosters. The Bills traded away Marshawn Lynch, guess what....they need a RB! Jackson is older and really not suited to carry a full NFL RB load, neither is the smaller Spiller who fails at blocking. The Bills still don't know if Shawn Nelson can do the job at TE or if they have enough depth at WR Marcus Easley who didn't play at all last season. The Bills should go DE-DT-LB with that #3 overall, I just hope they get lucky and pick a decent player.

Actually as I recall it Farve was going nuts because he wanted Steve Mariucci as HC, then got even more pissed when his OC left GB and went to Minnesota. The final straw for Farve was when Randy Moss went on the open market and the Packers didn't make a move for him. To the OP, it is highly doubtful the Bills would have even considered unknown Mike McCarthy at that time. The guy the Bills did consider and who actually had an interview with GM Marv Levy was Mike Sherman. The guy who was just fired as HC of the Packers before McCarthy, Levy stated after the interview that Sherman "knocked his socks off" with a great interview. My thinking is that Levy wanted the HC gig himself so he nudged owner Ralph Wilson into hiring Dick Jauron. Perhaps Levy thought that Wilson would come begging him to take over the HCing job after a year or so. In any event, Marv screwed his old team while GM with that horrid choice of Dick Jauron for HC. Thanks Marv, Mike Sherman 57-39 and 2-4 in postseason. He was hired in GB in 2000 and took the team to 4 consecutive winning seasons as HC and 3 consecutive NFC north division titles. If he had a flaw at the time, it was that he took over as GM in 2001 and was both GM and HC. In 2004 the team, hired GM Ted Thompson away from Seattle and became the Packers new GM. Sherman remained HC in 05 but the the team went 4-12 due to many injuries and he was fired.

The Packers run a brilliantly scripted offense that is far more advanced then anything I've seen from the Bills coaches so far. The same can be said of their defense under Dom Capers, in 2 short years he has managed to take that team to one of the best 3-4 defenses in the league, very comparable to exactly what the Steelers and their HoF DC run! The schemes the Packers run are better, the coaches are far superior, the front office drafts better players, and finds better free agents. Fitz isn't consistently accurate enough to be even be considered as good as Rodgers, Brady, Manning or Brees. Perhaps Chan Gailey can get him to improve on his accuracy by working on his grip, footwork, and release....who knows, this could be the year he really improves under Gailey...or not. So yea, basically everything in every aspect needs to improve on the Buffalo Bills to even to start comparing them to Green Bay. The Packers and Bills were almost even a few short years ago with Farve still at the QB position, Buffalo beat GB in Buffalo 24-10 in 2006 with JP Losman at the helm and Jauron in his first year. Everything LOOKED like it was going in the right direction, but nothing was. New Flash, it still isn't going in the right direction, not with RW as President, not with Buddy Nix as GM, not with Chan Gailey as HC, not with Tom Modrak as head scout. This franchise will most likely remain dysfunctional until the team is sold or the owner grows a brain and decides to fire himself, then hires someone that actually knows what they are doing as president.

One could say that the Packers D had a better series in stopping the Steelers offense to end the game, nothing more, and that the Packers were lucky Big Ben didn't play well the entire game. It might have had something to do with losing their all pro center that helped get them to the SB, but then both teams suffered through injuries all season long. Both Aaron Rodgers and HC Mike McCarthy stated that the stellar play of LT Chad Clifton and RT Brian Bulaga helped keep Rodgers upright and untouched most of that SB. Another note was the fact that the Packers felt their 3 & 4th WR's matched up well against the Steelers 3rd & 4th DB's, and they were right. Mike McCarthy also credited Rodgers with his pin point accuracy, and his ability to run a very well scripted offensive game plan for that MVP performance. Both teams are almost mirror images of themselves in regards to defense and and style of QB play, clearly Rodgers played better then Big Ben in the SB. Remember, it is a team game! Offense, defense and special teams all played an important part of the game for each team. If you could point to one player who's performance stood out above the rest of all the other players... well that guy won the MVP trophy, and a new car.

What gets me is that teams like the Steelers-Patriots-Colts-Ravens are always drafting later in the rounds and yet find quality starters every year, Buffalo drafts in the top 10-15 every year and really struggles to even find starters in rounds one and two. When teams like the Steelers draft a center in the first round the guy makes the pro-bowl his first year, and is worthy of that first round pick. You guys can continue to blame Marv Levy for his 2 years, Jauron for his 4 years, and even blame Modrak for his 8+ years....Like I stated earlier, the man I hold accountable is the president of the team who has had his hands in everything since he fired Tom Donahoe. Just knowing that the status quo remains the same ruins my draft thoughts about the Bills, and even tho Nix is now supposedly calling the shots (something I highly doubt considering the Spiller pick) I just don't see this team drafting itself outta the AFC East basement. Another thought is the Cornell Green selection as a RT free agent for 3 million dollars, and how the franchise pinned their RT hopes to that horrible player is beyond me. So that now can the Bills even be trusted to grade an experienced player at any position? The entire Bills fan base knew Trent Edwards stunk and was shell shocked, and yet this coaching staff and Buddy Nix wasted an entire off season, pre season and 2 games just to cut the guy and get no return for him. Marshawn Lynch was another blunder, they could have traded him on draft day for another pick in last years draft. They could have gotten a higher return for him from the Saints. All I can do as a Bills fan is hope that the proverbial law of averages really swings Buffalo's way and they get really lucky in the draft and free agency this year, even then I still don't give them any chance to make the playoffs with this staff....or even have a winning season. The only real glimmer of hope for me anymore is that TG is able to buy the Bills at some point, and he hires some people that are actually good at their jobs

Yea well, from everything I've read over the years I wouldn't be the least bit surprised to find out that the owner is making these retarded early picks over the last 8 years. The team has utterly failed to find decent O linemen the last 8 years unless they draft guards in the first 2 picks (Wood-Levitre), which is usually reserved for tackles. Guards can be found in later rounds unless they are certifiable all pros. This franchise has made so many bad choices over the last 10 years of drafting and yet they keep the same people in power making these poor decisions. Buddy Nix went into last years draft with stating that the O line was a priority, the Bills came away with a 5th & 7th, not my idea of priority. The 7th was cut in preseason and the 5th never saw a starting role, which is odd considering how many changes were made at RT. Nix came outta that draft stating that things didn't unfold in a way to allow them to take an O linemen early. Spiller was clearly a luxury pick as the Bills already had a brilliant 3rd down back in Fred Jackson and a ":water-bug" type receiver in Roscoe Parrish. Now think about how well that O line would have been this season if the Bills had traded back and taken RT Brian Bulaga or C Maurkice Pouncey. Now Buddy Nix and Chan Gailey are stating that the O line is fine and that the Bills need to address the ILB-OLB position, that isn't what I see when the Bills play a top team. Fitz will still be running for his life and hurrying throws against teams like the Jets-Cowboys-NY Giants-Chargers-Chiefs. That is "IF" Fitz can stay healthy the entire year. Should Fitz go down at any point, then look and see at exactly how flawed that O line really is. The team still fails badly at run blocking, if not for Fred Jackson making yards on his own the Bills running game would be non existent. Now that the Bills traded away the bruising freight train in ML, they have a kid who can't block, and an older RB in Jackson who would be best featured as the 3rd down or pass receiving back, and not the primary back who takes all the punishment of the lead RB. So guess what? The Bills now need another RB to replace ML as the featured power RB. Look for this team to make a reach at 3 like OLB Von Miller from Texas A&M, the smart move would be to take a DE/DT with that #3 overall. Don't look for this franchise to make any smart moves with a 92 year old president / owner who is still calling the shots over the team. Another move that wouldn't surprise me is Cam Newton with that #3 pick. Wilson needs to sell tickets and that kid would certainly get that job done.

The people that do buy tickets when the team is bad can pat themselves on the back for keeping the team in Buffalo .

Cheers I'm never going to support medicore, if that means I'm a bandwagon type of guy....then so be it! I bought season tickets when Marv Levy hired Ted Marchibroda, and kept them all thru the SB years, fun times!

The last bastion of old timers hanging on like grim death itself in Al Davis and Ralph Wilson.... If the Raiders were to ONLY change the OC to HC that might have worked to improve the team, but this new HC went and fired his QB coach Paul Hackett, and passing game coordinator in Ted Tollner. Two men who were most likely the reason that the Raiders played better on offense last season. So now they hire Steve Wisniewski and Al Saunders, somehow I don't see them getting any better then 6-0 in the division. But hey! the owner does what he wants and answers to no one, sound familiar? It should, because the Buffalo Bills are in the same boat, they have an owner who made himself president of the team after he fired Tom Donahoe. The only other president who has been even remotely as bad as Wilson pres was Matt Millen in Detroit. Anyone else here think that if Ralph Wilson wasn't the owner of the team that he would have been fired as president faster then Tom Donahoe was? If only the Buffalo Bills had a president like Ozzie Newsome of the Ravens-or even an exec VP like Mike Tannenbaum of the Jets- You guys can blame Modrak and Jauron, even blame Marv Levy if ya like... the bottom line is that the only one to blame is the guy running the show, the buck stops with owner / president Ralph Wilson!

Although I hold Nix responsible for the Cornell Green RT FA blunder at 3 mill ! I don't hold this pick against Nix, this pick was clearly all Chan Gailey, and his talking about drafting a "waterbug" type player 3 months before the draft. I suppose the thing that bothers me most is the fact that the Bills already had a "waterbug" type receiver in Roscoe Parrish, and a brilliant 3rd down specialist in Fred Jackson, why waste that #9 pick on player that wasn't even needed?

Thank you, good post! In actuality, Levy did some things that he thought would help the team become more competitive... First, he brought in some free agents to bolster the O line in OG Derrick Dockery and RT Langston Walker. Now at first glance you would say these 2 were over paid under achievers while in Buffalo, when in fact Dockery grades out better then any current Bills OG and so does Walker at RT. those two were the result of changing from 20+ year experienced O line coach to a guy who was promoted from within who was lacking coaching experience, the result was the entire O line underachieving, and failing badly. Also, what Marv failed to address was the center position which is STILL a weakness on the team. although, it might not be in 2011 if Wood takes over that position permanently from Hangartner. Second, he hired Steve Fairchild away from the St Louis Rams to be the next OC, at the time this looked like a great move to bring the "greatest show on turf" into Buffalo and give us Bills fans "the greatest show in snow" But in reality Fairchild didn't stay long and Jauron replaced him with a QB coach who had no business as an OC, the guy isn't even in the NFL anymore. If that wasn't bad enough he fires that OC and replaces him with the QB coach again two weeks before the season starts. Its almost as if Jauron was trying to sabotage his own job. The draft choices were Jaurons, the free agents after Levy left were Jaurons and the replacement coaches were Jaurons....looks like Dick Jauron was his own worst enemy! What it all boils down to is the owner / president has to take responsibility for that era, he hired them so its entirely his fault.

The thing is, you could have a pro bowler at every position on D...who is going to call plays and set up the defense for the buffalo Bills, a guy still learning his job ....who might be a good DC at some point in the future? What really gets me is all you guys arguing over what position the Bills should select in the upcoming draft, does it really matter? Looking back at the last bunch of drafts and first round busts JP Losman-John McCargo-Aaron Maybin, Lynch is gone- 2nd round James Hardy and all the others that didn't pan out. You guys honestly think this team will select a decent player? Now Looking at Spiller at #9 last season, the supposed super star RB -14 games 17 rushes for 283 yards, pretty meager IMO. The 3 RB's taken after him all did better, plus the fact that the Bills were loaded at RB with Lynch and Jackson. Spiller is in the mold of Reggie Bush, who is mostly a 3rd down back and he never did learn how to block properly. Now that the Bills traded away M Lynch they will need another back to help out Jackson. The Bills went into last years draft stating that the O line was a priority, and came away with a 5th & 7th. The 7th was cut in pre season, and the 5th never saw the starting lineup. I have no faith in this staff to draft anyone who is any good at any position.with that #3 overall.

BLAH BLAH BLAH... You hold Marv Levy accountable, accountable for WHAT EXACTLY? You say the owner favored Sherman, post a link to this complete and utter BS, because it was actually the other way around, Wilson made the choice on Jauron This will be the third time I've asked for proof of your continous acusations about how unqualified Marv Levy was and all the mistakes he made as GM, show me one move he made OTHER then the Jauron hire that was harmful to the orginazition... JUST ONE!

I can disagree, I asked in an earlier post for you to point out exactly what decisions Marv levy made alone that he should be held accountable for (aside from the hiring of Dick Jauron). You never did respond to that question... so I can only think you don't know of any, and just want to bash Marv! I blame the owner / president and his allowing Dick Jauron to be de facto GM during his four years of failure, basically everything Marv Levy did in his 2 years, Jauron tore apart after he left. My opinion is that Marv was asked to join the Bills as GM because the owner wanted some guidance from a trusted source, I also don't believe he had very much power in the 2 years he was GM. Like I stated earlier, that during the drafts while he was in the org as GM he didn't make the draft selections, he just gave his opinion, and allowed Dick Jauron to make them! http://www.nfl.com/n...late=with-video ""Levy's role as GM was relatively undefined, although he provided input on the team's draft and personnel decisions, consulted with Jauron and stayed in close contact with Wilson, who lives in suburban Detroit. He had a mostly hands-off approach in contract talks, leaving that to team vice president Jim Overdorf."" From Ralph Wilson: "I will always be grateful for his service," Wilson said. "When we needed new focus and direction, Marv improved our organization's morale, attitude and environment: All of that, plus the stability we needed to move forward." Furthermore, Dick Vermeil was out of the NFL for a number of (15) years as a broadcaster / announcer, then returned to the sideline as HC for the St Louis Rams, and took them to a super bowl. I don't see how Marv was " so out of touch" with the NFL considering he was doing broadcasting for ESPN in Chicago, covering the Bears before he was hired as GM. PS.I have no deep love for Marv as he made critical mistakes as HC of the Bills and GM, I totally blame Marv for hiring the wrong guy in Dick Jauron, there is no question he royally screwed the pooch with that move. I can also recall Levy stating that when he was interviewing candidates for the HC job that ex-GB Packer HC Mike Sherman had given an interview that "knocked his socks off" Looking at the coaching history between Jauron and Sherman I never did understand the hiring of Jauron

In two sentences you blame both the owner and his choice for GM in Marv Levy, I've watched you condem Marv post after post.... ""There was a reason why Marv became a figurehead. He was simply in over his head. He was totally befuddled. There was no way he could lead the organization because his knowledge base of the league and the players was zilch"" Care to elaborate on exactly how you know Marv was "totally befuddled" and his "knowladge base of the league and the players was zilch" Simply because the man wasn't in the league for 5 years doesn't mean he lost touch with everything,he was doing broadcasting for ESPN radio in Chicago for the Bears before he was hired as GM. First of all, the ONLY decision I know he made was the hiring of the head coach in Dick Jauron (and even then he just offered his opinion and Ralph Wilson made the final choice) other then that I don't know of anything else he can be held accountable for, do you? From what I recall he was told he wouldn't need to be involved in any contract negotioations, and that would be handled by others. In regards to the draft he stated that he would only give his opinion on players and that it would be a combined effort of scouts-head coach-director of player personnel to make the draft choices. So it was in fact Jauron who made the final choice from my view. As I stated in an eariler post, this was probably the main reason as to why the owner trusted Jauron enough to make him de facto GM after Marv left the org. After he left the Buffalo Bills when his contract ended Marv went on to mentor CFL Alouettes head coach Marc Trestmen, who then went on to win 2 Grey Cups like Marv did when he was the HC of the Alouettes. In 2009 he co-wrote a book. The man is in the NFL HoFame and you keep bashing him over and over for all his supposed mistakes while he was GM . Please elaborate on exactly what mistakes he made OTHER then the hiring of Dick Jauron.... as I would really like to know!

I think Marv only came to Buffalo with the thought of returning to the sideline, once he realized that he would have to sit in an office while having no real power, he left. While you paint a picture of Levy looking like a bum trying to do brain sugerey.... Marv Levy had an astute eye for talent and coaches and a hella lot more football acumen then anyone in the Buffalo Bills organization, then and now! This was the HC that hired Ted Marchibroda and Wade Phillips, found players like Steve Tasker off waivers. He helped build one of the best special teams ever in pro football. If Marv had done the drafting during his GM years he probably would have done a better job then the morons who actually did the drafting. You forget that the current president is said to be on the phone to his HC daily, and micro manages the team from his home in Detroit. Everyone wants to blame Levy / Jauron, but the real culprit is the owner who can't stop meddling

While Marv really screwed the pooch in his hiring of Dick Jauron, that was his real fatal flaw. My take is after he realized that he was limited in his power and more of a figurehead he stepped down, I don't blame Levy for all the Jauron blunders, I blame the owner. Marv started the team in the right direction, he hired Jauron who was an Ivy league grad like him and had previous NFL HCing experience. At first glance it seemed like the right move, but little did Marv know that the power in the org would move away from him and toward Jauron. It looked to me like Ralph Wilson started to trust Jauron more then Levy, it explains why when Levy quit that he let Jauon become de facto HC/GM. At first, Levy brought in an understudy of Mike Martz "greatest show on turf" OC in Steve Fairchild ,which was a good move until Fairchild quit for a college HC gig and Jauron promoted QB coach Turk Schonert to replace him. C'mon, that guy had no business being an OC, he isn't even in the NFL anymore. I think he was prompted to promote from within by the owner. Anyway, what Marv may or may not have known is that Fairchild while named OC of the Rams was a figurehead, MM called the offensive plays and set up the game plans. Marv built up the O line with free agents which really was a good move, up until the 20+ year veteran O line coach Jim McNally retired and the O line went to hell. Again, instead of hiring an experienced O line coach, he promotes from within. That new O line coach got Trent Edwards concussed in Arizona. The Bills really lacked a dominate center the entire time Jauron was in Buffalo, they should have passed on Whitner and traded back to draft C Nick Mangold Everything that happened under the Marv Levy / Dick Jauron era falls under the responsibility of the president of the organization, he is the one who gave Jauron the power. PS when an old person no longer has the ability to function safely behind the steering wheel of an automobile he is forced to give up his drivers license. It is time for Ole ralphie to surrender his keys to the Bills, hire a real president like Bill Polian / Ozzie Newsome and sit back and watch them win

I just don't get ...WHY YOU GUYS DON"T GET IT!! The history of this franchise has shown that as long as tickets are selling, and seats are filled you can expect a mediocre team! When the team finally becomes bad enough and fan outcry gets loud enough you can then expect some changes. RW doesn't like to hire outsiders or people he doesn't know, and he has a history of promoting from within the org... sometimes with good results and sometimes with bad results...Bill Polian vs QB coach to HC Kay Stephenson and DC to HC Hank Bullough. Understand that this owner also has a history of being notoriously cantankerous and frugal. The ONLY reason Jim Kelly signed was because of Bill Polian, the ONLY reason Bruce Smith stayed in Buffalo after his contract was up, was because of Bill Polian who fought with RW. Anyone else remember the Denver Bronco's offered to pay top dollar and give up 2 first round picks for Bruce, Polian fought to keep Smith in Buffalo and pay him what Denver offered. Look back at what brought Chuck Knox into Buffalo, fan interest in OJ was winding down and the Buffalo Bills couldn't even play pre-season games "IN" Buffalo because they couldn't sell enough tickets. The ENTIRE decade of the 70's, that's right from 1970-1979 the Buffalo Bills didn't win a single game against the Miami Dolphins. Fans were staying away in droves at the end of the 70's and Wilson knew he "HAD" to do something! Chuck Knox might be the greatest Bills head coach ever IMO, he took a bunch of mediocre players and changed their mentality from losers into winners. Before Knox came to Buffalo the Bills had won 5 of 28 games the previous 2 years. He took the Bills to the playoffs in two short years and did this dispite the team having worst GM in the history of the Buffalo Bills in Stew Barber. Knox failed to come to terms with owner Ralph Wilson so he went to Seattle and took them to the playoffs that same year. The Bills got extremely lucky to find and hire Bill Polian, who in my eyes is probably the best ever GM the NFL has seen the last 30 years, for what he did in Buffalo and Indy. The Bills will never see another like him simply because they refuse to hire expensive, known people. Although that doesn't stop RW from trying to find another Polian, he promoted Buddy Nix just like he did with Polian. Huge mistake IMO, even Buddy described himself as NOT "the smartest guy in the room" at his first presser, Cornell Green agrees. The Bills had Bill Polian-A.J.Smith-Chuck Knox-John Butler...some of the best talent evaluators in the NFL and either let them go or fired them. Bottom line: there are men out there who could turn around this team in 2 years or less, but Buffalo has to settle for what they can get because most don't want to become involved in the current situation of the Buffalo Bills...the owner / president, micro managing ...the area, weather,city...the lack of money ....and even if a Head Coach/ GM/ president shows he can build a winner in Buffalo, history has shown he might not be rewarded for his efforts

The thing is. it looks like the best player at #3 will be a defensive linemen, which is good as the Bills need to give Kyle Williams some help in there stopping the run ( too bad moron DJ took Maybin instead of a real DLineman) OTOH, should Chan Gailey think Cam Newton or Jake Locker should be that #3 pick I'd have no problem with it because if anyone can teach that young kid the ropes its Chan Gailey. Fitz is decent for now but he will always throw that INT, plus the guy just isn't a winner. The Bills still need that franchise QB at some point, perhaps Andrew Luck next year

I think you are....a misguided homie that refuses to understand the difference between a winner and loser. Your calling me blind because Fitz in his 6th year finally started playing decently, while Sanchez in only in his second year had a great performance in the playoffs against the team that most had picked to win the SB this year. Yea, I'm blind I know you want to keep this thread alive ... but jeez, just ignore the points about how many games Fitz has won and the teams he HASN"T beaten... you can flap about how good Fitz is when he beats a team with a winning record, or takes a team to the playoffs The Jets D didn't throw 3 TD's against that pro bowl Patriot secondary, they didn't have a 127 passer rating against a good defense on their home turf, Sanchez did! You cry that the Jets have the better team and yet can't acknowledge that the Jets won that game because of superior play from Mark Sanchez.16/25 194 yds 3 TD's NO INT's. When was the last time Fitz put in a performance like that against the Patriots in a playoff game on their home turf...never!. If you think Fitz could switch teams with the Jets and not throw picks you are sadly mistaken, its what he does, its what he will always do. Its why the Bills still don't have their franchise QB.

Stats are for losers and are meaningless fluff, fitz is a good backup who won 4 games this year against bad teams, try comparing QB's again when he LEADS a team to the playoffs or even beats the Patriots once! I made a similar post eariler this year around the time the Bills played the Bears asking who was better Fitz or Cutler, as you can imagine most homies took Fitz. So far Fitz has outright shown he isn't a winner, until the guy can lead a team into a winning season i'd say this thread is moot.

yea well, let me know when Fitz throws 3 TD's and has a 127 passer rating against the Patriots on their home turf... in a playoff game! Get a freaking grip, fitz blows and is nothing more then a good backup. The Buffalo Bills are so far removed from the Patriots and Jets right now its stupid to even compare anything about either team.

Of course most of the homies are going to proclaim Fitz is better then Brady and Manning.... His won / loss record speaks for itself, the Bills are still looking for their "franchise" QB. That said, I'd rather see the Bills build the lines before they draft a "franchise" QB
