For the long term future, renovation and revitalization of the area the stadium should be built in this vicinity, just closer to the water. Buffalo is the waterfront. It is what built the area and made it initially great. It is what makes Buffalo unique. Many examples of how to manage traffic with a W/F stadium- Chicago, San Francisco, etc. You use out lots and shuttles. Soldier Field is a crown jewel of Chicago's lakefront skyline. It helps to show a vital, prosperous image. Nothing advertises a city and region better than an NFL game on national TV. Imagine a lakefront shot, possibly with a western sunset over the water (something few cities in this country have), the shiny new stadium full and illunminated. A Buffalo NY, re-born and vital. DO IT!

According to most hosts / contributors on WGR the sky is falling because EJ continues to struggle in camp. To that I am completely contrary (at this point) and see no reason to throw in the towell. So far- here is what we do know (facts not opinion): *Our defense is pretty good- on both QB hurries and receiver coverage. *EJ has been hurried- often. *The receivers have not shown an ability to get any separation. *EJ has played 5/8 of a regular season and 1/4 of 1 preseason game. *Inadequate time to develop timing relationship with receivers. *Scott Chandler was his favorite target at 6-ft-7. Where are any other taller receivers? Aside from Lee Smith and Chris Summers (6'-5") and Tori Gurley (6'-4") the remaining (9) receivers on the current roster are 6-3 or shorter, 3 of them are 6' or shorter. So we have a QB who has played 5/8 of a season, a second year training camp vs. a very good defense that hurries and covers well, and receivers that are on the short side that haven't been able to separate yet experienced on-air reporters are calling for the hook (along with many impatient fans)?

After one season? Heck no! This would be the most irresponsible move imaginable and would set this team in reverse for another (2) years before they could move forward again. Whaley, Marrone and Hackett have been groomed for their positions and have the pedigree at this point that qualifies them to have the keys to the team for at least the next (4) seasons. Let them keep the keys! Let them drive the course and figure it out even with some speed bumps along the way. Great coaches and GMs take time to develop. Sometimes many, many seasons. There are lots of examples out there. Four more years!

please. hackett is a very impressive adaptable young coach who deserves the keys to the team's offense and to gather experience to become an NFL veteran. in five years he'll eclipse even gailey's best years by miles.

I honestly cannot believe this question was even asked or that anyone would consider it. BASED ON HALF A SEASON, 1/4 of a PS game AND CAMP REPORTS? Please man! Back away from the ledge!

Let me add another (2) qualifiers to the list- *IF the OL can pass protect better. EJ seems to be hurried a lot in camp and during the HOF game. *IF the receivers can get any separation. I saw zero seperation in the HOF game. This was also a problem last season. Don't know about camp though. The combo platter of being hurried and receivers who cannot separate is enough to make any QB look bad.

i'm sorry, this reference is lost on me. care to explain?

more of the same from him. what else would we expect? andre said it best.

Is there a team in the history of sports that has endeared themselves to their fans, so many fans, like what we watched last night? Not in the history of sports.

i remember when i first heard about bon jovi and the toronto group, months ago, and i thought to myself- don't eff with us! you'll be sorry.

that was awesome. i should have made the trip. (i live near chicago). i should be at camp this week though.

my teenage son is somewhat jealous of the bills and never became a fan. maybe some day.

you must not remember hank bulloch and kay stevenson.

they didn't show her. but it sounds like he may have some inside info.

the ESPN wrap up talk muted the pass for me.

yeah but it's good to have lived through them.

best team in the world.

OH YEAH!

way to go andre! about time!

was van the best or what.

gotta love boomer.

i am waiting for the first F-Bon Jovi T-shirt or banner. make that MAN, F-Bon Jovi.

i also detected the classic "hi evah"

his bust is flattering though. not like the telletubbie that one of the earlier dudes had.

ok ray, time to punt.
