Which goes back to my last paragraph, Bledsoe was good enough to help you win, but if left to his own, he would find a way to cost you the game. Bledsoe did not beat the Patriots. The BILLS beat the Patriots. Any game where Bledsoe was tasked with leading, or where the pressure would be on him to win, he found a way to turn the ball over and lose it. Yeah, and how many Super Bowls did Bledsoe win with all of those passing yards? How many playoff games? Stats are meaningless, amigo.

IS there any chance he would be available at #34? I think taking any QB in this draft at #3 overall would be a huge mistake. I think from an overall team approach we need two things in our defensive front 7: 1.) a mean, stout DT that will push the pocket, free up our LB's, and demand double teams and 2.) pass rushers that will consistently get to the enemy QB. I think the true impact players that can come in and contribute right away will be available at #3 and #34. Fairley, Dareus, and Von Miller all look better to me at #3. Then take that QB at #34.

Whoa! Not so fast, bud. Why does Bledsoe get a pass? He cost us a 1st round pick that was sent to our division rival Pats, and he could never beat them. Sure, when you talk about lack of injuries you could say he was dependable. But maybe we weren't watching the same Bledsoe. The Bledsoe I saw had an amazing first half of the season when he was with us his first season (which he also had his first year w/Dallas), throwing bombs and lighting up defenses with Peerless Price and Eric Moulds. But opposing teams got smarter and better, and that steam started to run out after midseason. We couldn't run very well, and our defense could not stop anyone. We were constantly in shoot-outs. As our defense improved, Bledsoe was exposed for grandpa in the pocket...he had lead feet. If there was a pass rush, he was going down. He also had that tendency Buffalo QB's have had this past decade (Fitz excluded)- which must be a Modrak requirement- of staring down your receiver until you release the ball. Bledsoe, JP, Trent, even SJ were all excellent at this! Oh, and I think JP learned how to hold onto the ball too long from Bledsoe himself, because they both were masters of that craft. Then, you have the amazingly ill-timed turnovers Bledsoe was constantly responsible for. The play that most stands out to me, is a home game against the Pats, the score is something like 14-14, we drive all the way down to near the goalline as time is winding down. We score, and we probably win. What happened? Bruschi busts the blocking, sacks Bledsoe, and he FREAKIN' FUMBLES THE BALL!! Bledsoe was easily as good as JP with throwing the terrible INT, or fumbling the ball that would go to the opponent when we were just starting to build some momentum. My summary of Bledsoe: good enough to HELP you win, but without a strong supporting cast he was bad enough to COST you the game.

What's with all the 'tats, man? I mean, you're a freakin' QB, not a D-lineman or linebacker! Looks ridiculous.

I say Dareus. Fairley sounds like a version of Vince Wilfork and his cheap shot ness with a little Haynesworth slackitude built in. Newton also has had his mix-ups, which I really don't want in the leader of my team. We need a dominant DT, which would demand double teams. This would serve to 1.) free up our LB's to tackle, 2.) make the edge rushers better able to get into the backfield as more blockers are focused on plugging the middle, thus freeing them up for pressures and sacks and 3.) force QB's to throw when they don't want to, which will increase the INT's and amplify the abilities of our DB's. If we can consistently bottle up the run, force other teams to have to pass, and keep scoring...sounds like the recipe for success. We pick high in the second round, so I think a QB will be available early in the 2nd. And if not, we could use a DE or LB or T. I don't think any QB's in this draft will translate well to the NFL. Just because we pick #3 overall, does NOT mean it has to be on a QB, IMO.

He's the Pozluzny of the secondary- made of glass. Or anabolic steroids. I don't think that there have been any legitimate studies to date, but juicers tend to break down much easier. It's a shame, because Sanders was all-world before falling apart.

I watched a few Dolphin games, and Incognito did not get blown up, pushed back, and he seemed atleast servicable in run blocking. There's got to be something else at work here. That's somewhat of a surprise. Jonathan Scott need no fanfare. He barely held his own, had help most of the time, and only saw the field because of the incredible string of injuries to the Pittsburgh tackles. True, he has played in a Super Bowl, but that is more because of his teammates that because of anything that he put together. Next you'll be asking for the return of Langston Walker.

This post can't be serious. Maybin does not have what it takes to get a decent haircut. Bench? You mean CUT into obscurity, right?

Bills Mentioned In CBA - Let The Truth Be Known

I honestly thought Aguilera looked like a bloated has-been and screwing up the Anthem and having the lack of intelligence to not even comment and then to show up at the Grammy's and act like a superstar?!??!? Say what you want about the Black Eyed Peas (Fergy is a freakin' knockout), atleast they knew the lyrics. -
Red: "........."

Well, he's got that "great" quick burst, but then overshot the mark, had no counter move, and actually ran right out the back door.

The joke as I read it is that the ride is worth more (and worth keeping) than the Bills themselves. With the roll-in field, the fans of LA can then play football themselves on a real field. In other words: even though the team would make money, their not worth it. They can have more fun with the field themselves than watching the Bills.

how many of you that don't like us taking a corner at 3...

I thought Jauron left the building? Our run defense was terrible, especially up the gut- and that's no offense to Kyle Williams. We need a much stouter run front on the D Line. Getting a snarling immovable object of a NT/ DT in a Pat Williams mold would make the LB's better by tying up blockers. It would also make blitzes more effective. Which would mean forcing QB's to hurry their passes, which would make our secondary better by being able to capitalize on poorly thrown footballs and create more opportunities for INT's. How does drafting a CB at #3 fix the interior run defense? -
I don't know. This is proverbial Raiders territory. Everybody else's degenerates, trouble makers, and malcontents eventually become Silver and Black. Atleast, that was the legend. Raiders haven't lived up to their own hype in over a decade. Plaxico is like Vick territory for me. If you're stupid enough to do time, then I don't want you on mine. Pass.

But...where's...the...charging...Buffalo?
