Sisyphean Bills

Whoops.

Gil is a genius and has an otherworldly memory and he's a good guy. What's kind of funny is that even though he has slowed down, he can still lap people half his age and do it with class.

I get your point, and it raised a question. Do you think there were players that improved dramatically from Gailey to Marrone? Just curious on your take...

Bet the farm. Time will tell if it is ballsy or career-killing.

Sounds like insurance against Spikes leaving the reservation.

Browns pulled another Julio Jones trade?

You can never have enough corners, said the guy who lived in the dodecahedron.

Does it mean that next year Whaley will have half the roster smoke a field of fake weed to cover his maneuvers?

Is this thread about Tom "Bounced around more than a rubber ball" Savage? http://www.nj.com/rutgersfootball/index.ssf/2014/05/2014_nfl_draft_after_hitting_rock_bottom_former_rutgers_qb_tom_savage_finding_happy_ending.html

Just chilling with Irsay.

Well, you are 100% wrong here. I was never talking about Whaley "giving himself an out". What I was talking about is how other fans will characterize the decision down the road. In fact, I didn't even mention Whaley! With the ownership situation as it is, no one knows what the front office is going to look like down the road. Turn about is fair play. Your condescending attitude has been noted by others as well.

From the link: Well, I knew you'd disagree but here's some assistance. http://www.merriam-w...ary/collaborate Perhaps a take that no one other than Whaley had any role whatsoever is ... wrong.

And you think that will slow people down? PS: I assume you are referring to this: http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap1000000204027/article/new-bills-gm-doug-whaley-integral-in-ej-manuel-pick There is wiggle room there. But, you are entitled to disagree.

It depends on how he turns out. If he wins a Super Bowl, he'll be the choice of the last guys around. If he fails, the selection will be credited to Nix. Enough with this trying to be accurate stuff. It's about fitting the data to the narrative.

Right. Or in other words, trading up in a deep draft or back in a shallow draft are moves that give your competition the advantage.

Just saying. Case anyone wants to make a little box to put their regret in later.

The odds of going 14 years without visiting the playoffs with a 14 / 32 team playoff format are only 0.03%.

Historically, the Bills are more likely to use a #9 on a RB and pick up their TE off some other team's list of cuts.

I didn't read all this thread... Ronnie Harmon should get a mention. http://www.lostlette...he-86-rose-bowl

Well, we have you to make arguments of similarity between EJ and Peyton for starters. PS: I'm fine with enthusiasm, but staying centered is ok in my book too. PPS: I'm in the camp of hopeful but definitely not completely sold fans. HTH.

Assuming that all NFL teams have a equal chance, the odds of missing the playoffs 14 years is 0.1%. Similarly, the odds of winning the Super Bowl are 3.1%. In other words, missing the playoffs 14 times in a row is like winning the Super Bowl if the NFL expanded to 1024 teams.

Consider it a "slow down, kids at play" sign on the road to giddiness and throwing a ticker tape parade. There is nothing wrong with your QB getting more comfortable with his teammates. The only "comparison" my post actually made was the hope that Manuel is better than Sanchez. Is that wrong?
