dwight in philly

maybe to upgrade our depth?, i think edwards goes down, just depends when. i also didnt mean that the QB added would be another teams "cut". maybe they make a deal, im not convinced this regime is in love with any of the bills QB'S.

i agree with those who said TE and LB, but it would not surprise me if a QB is added. just a hunch..

yes, but if the flag was thrown, was their evidence to overturn the pass being illegal? the official throws the flag, could luckett see enough to say the pass was legal?, but it is moot and your original premise of the official responsible to throw the flag not doing so is correct and i guess luckett is off the hook in my eyes now!

i appreciate your comments. i agree about boston being out of position, but luckett was the referee and i am not sure what the replays rules were back then, as far as overturning a play with no flags, i am quite sure you are right however. the game was just so painful that reality got in the way of emotion and feel we were royally screwed. i am quite sure if it happened today, the result would not change as the officiating seems to have gotten even worse with each year.

i know they are not players, everyone stated good ones, but i hate walt coleman and phil luckett. two officials who really screwed the bills!

i got a blue spiller throwback...

yep, that is exactly what i am hoping for!, it would be a positive step , but we have a long "recovery" after all the suffering we have endured. i do not know if i speak for anybody else on here, but it is all the more agonizing to not only lose the entire decade, but to be ridiculed , labeled "irrelevant" etc , by the media. just hoping beyond hope, that it finally turns our way.

i know it is way too early to even speculate about how the season plays out, but after 2 pre-season wins, i am kind of pumped. (of course anything positive will do that). i am just wondering what all the "experts" , all the "talking heads", ESPN, would do if the bills are very good while the jets sh-t the bed, dallas does not do much, favre sucks, all the usual media favorites just do not do it, at least early. it would be exhilerating to watch all of them squirm.

nice ... what is the purpose of that put- down?, do we have to hear it from people we would assume to be buffalo friendly by the mere fact that they participate on here?.. dont you think we get it enough from everybody?, you must like being miserable.

funny, i just moved here after i retired and feel the same way about philly people as you, after spending the first 55 years of my life in buffalo.

fit where?, in philly, or your mother's basement? please clarify?

i think one could draw those conclusions, the pack looks good, colts just seem be too banged up.

if you say so champ!, why not start a thread yourself, like: " in my opinion, i like to pass judgment from my position in my mother's basement"

dude!.. lighten up!, it is message board. do not particpate if you feel the topic is not up to your "standards"!

i would hope not, but it was the THIRD pre-season game and that is one that teams usually use to very weakly try to assess the REAL team, so my answer is no, with the obvious caveat that the colts were missing some quality starters.

i think it is a tribute to the people of WNY, plain and simple! if all the naysayers want to come forward and offer up the predictable " what else is there to do in buffalo?", or " attendance doesnt mean that it is going be a viable market" , let them come forth. buffalo is a football town, great tradition, great fans. the pub about the team, the region, fans , etc, has stopped because of the p-ss-poor product the last 10 years, but it should just fire up the base even more, we are buffalo bills fans, we take sh-t continuously , but we are here and we wont give in! i defy any player that has played for the bills since the inception of the ralph , to say that there isnt a special feeling when you are coming out of that tunnel before kickoff, that kind of stuff is what built the NFL, just a shame we have to keep defending ourselves, our team, our town.

rex ryan came charging hard last year, backed up his bullsh-t to an extent, ESPN and the NYC media, being what they are, fed into it. i find the revis contract dispute and the jets hype nauseating. i obviously hope they fall on their A$$,nothing would be sweeter. all that being said, i sure wish the bills would have hired rex ryan. i hate saying that, thinking that, and am so jealous i am ashamed of myself!

you are most likely correct, but i guess i am just ticked off that the bills picked him , just wonder what kind of thinking went on there. i also agree that wendling is missed.

i am probably jumping the gun, and i hope i am wrong, but i would cut maybin.

absolutely!i see buddy grabbing a player at an obvious need position, i e: linebacker, tight end, line depth. a surprise may be in a QB.

excellant analysis! i think the bills will add a body here or there , but your point is on the money. i agree, i think "names" will be out there and the urge of us fans will be for the bills to go for some of them. it will be interesting for sure.

i have long espoused the same mantra. the NFL is now "pop culture", not a weekend diversion played by guys who get bloodied and muddied. i am not saying the players arent tough or physically capable, i am saying its a "rap video" mentality. take a look at the pre-game shows, (i think fox's is unwatchable), but ESPN'S has evolved into a combination of access hollywood and TMZ. i used to look forward to it , now i barely pay attention. i guess my point is that unless you are "sexy" like the COWBOYS, or the latest fad, the THE JETS, or have a hotshot rookie, you mean nothing . it is all about appealing to demographics, not necessarily football fans. at the present time the bills have absolutely nothing relevant to offer, hence the ridicule. i hate it, it is painful and other than just winning, it will continue.

i think the chances of edwards getting hurt are very high. i think they keep three, brown to the practice squad, then to the active roster by week 2 r three, can just feel that injury coming. but who knows, sometimes cut day is wild, maybe buddy will surprise us. maybe they dont like any of them. but not many QB'S out there really. maybe they trade for troy brown, nothing in stone, as i see it.

it does explain the lack of a real "buzz" about him though. he didnt seem in the forefront much during his time here

yessirre!, i know, again, sorry.. hope it just fades away.. but i hope nelson isnt a waste also..
