Sisyphean Bills

Do you think the Bills will start their HC search after the Super Bowl yet again?

Pure coincidence that the false starts have gone way down since they scrapped the idiotic no-huddle offense.

Some report I read said they had 3 kids.

True, but few people probably even noticed. You don't say. Speaking of which, could they have found a worse fit for the will position in the Tampa 2?

Seems like an appropriate tombstone on the Dick Levy "Rebuilding with Character" era.

He was psycho at Nebraska. Played with a serious mean streak. Probably before that, too.

You are obviously ignorant of 49ers history. Bill Walsh built the 49ers.

He built the Rams like George Seifert built the 49ers.

According to Mel Kiper, Jr. Don't be a knuckle walker. I never said that.

Whoopty do! You failed to register the actual point. Just drafting a QB in the 1st round does NOT mean you have a franchise QB or even a passing game. In fact, drafting JAG that happened to be a college QB can set your franchise back another 7 years. Nice attempt at a sales job. But, I'm not sold. Maybe Bradford is hiring someone as a press agent though.

What would concern me about Bradford is the injuries as well as the way the injuries happened. Your franchise QB is going to get hit when you are a bad team trying to build a better future. Do you really want to risk your future on a kid that you may have to teach basics to on how to protect himself when he goes to the ground? I don't generally like Notre Dame QBs because of the hype factor. Clausen hasn't established himself as a big-time winner, despite playing for Weis; and, I'm not convinced he has the sort of gun that is needed to play well in the Ralph. He may be the most NFL-ready guy out there though. We'll see. Locker hasn't declared yet, has he? My point though was that if the Bills really want to turn this thing around they need to stop bypassing better players at positions were they may have a couple of average players to reach for a guy that fills a dire need. Start by stockpiling talent, regardless of position, and try to accelerate the competition and talent overall in the building. It's a process, not a wave of a magic wand.

So, are you saying that you believe all 3 of these QBs will be Hall-of-Famers, win Super Bowls, or be great long-term franchise QBs?

I thought the pun had something to do with the kid getting his first sleeping bag from Santa Claus.

Well, sort of. They did draft OL and DL, but the situation at OT is a disaster and Wood has a long road of recovery ahead of him. Butler, who is the most experienced, has shown he cannot be depended upon to stay in one piece. On the DL, they chose a small, weak LB/DE hybrid who has a quick first step and nothing else. (Frankly, by the time he has actually matured enough physically, his first contract will likely be up and the Bills could well decide to head in another direction.) The defensive front 7 is 32nd best in the NFL at stopping the run. So clearly, there is a lot of work to do there.

Makes as much sense as trying to continue to fly the b.s. that Trent's only problem is the lingering effects of the concussion he suffered Oct. 5, 2008.

Zip. That was the sound of that joke sailing over your head.

Trade him to a clinic doing studies on concussions for a snow shovel.

Well, the game is tackle football. Having bigger, stronger players that can pancake and blow up the other team's smaller weaklings has only worked, oh, since the 1840s or so.

Go get her, Tiger.

If Maybin is a "pure RDE," why not play him at RDE? I mean WTF? Put him out there at a position he is suited for and see if he can make a freaking play. Or is it really that Schobel, a veteran Pro Bowler, is also a "pure RDE" and totally !@#$ing useless anywhere else? So playing the kid who has been pretty close to useless at LDE in the pass rush with Schobel locked in at the only position he can play is the best they can do? It would've been nice if the Bills brilliant scouting department had figured that one out before the draft. It's hard to connect the dots in the NFL. Having two guys that can only play the same position isn't going to help anyone until one of them (or both) is gone.

What? Nobody on the Packers practice squad?

And yet Ngata has played the 3 and 5-technique in Baltimore at a Pro Bowl level.

So, you don't trust the guys that gave Haloti Ngata and John McCargo the same draft grade?

Stanford to Kansas would be considered a lateral move at best. But, hey, "nobody doesn't like Notre Dame."
