I think you're going to get your wish.

I hope all members of the TBD community have a blessed and relaxing Thanksgiving. Yes, our Bills may frustrate us--and they do bring us some happiness along the way, but given the fact that we can regularly jump on the internet and offer our feelings, good and bad, I would say that relatively speaking, we are all doing quite well. Way too many in this world have far bigger issues than how poorly the Bills Defense is playing. I would say, simply based on the fact we can log on here and do this, that all of us have been blessed and have much to be grateful for. Happy Thanksgiving! And, GO BILLS!!!

We really had no choice, with the condition of this Defense, we had to take Darius--it was the right pick.

I think I need an eye examine.

I said this in another thread and I think it needs repeated here, and in every new thread about the draft: Draft players from big-time, winning programs. No more players from Richmond, James Madison, Bethany, South Dakota State, Troy, etc. Not that any draftee is a guaranteed success, but the likelihood of a player from Alabama, LSU, Texas, SoCal, Michigan, Florida, etc., being successful is higher than small college crap-shoot picks that we seen to be so enamored with. Yes, there will always be exceptions, but overall, and in the longterm success-to-failure ratio, I believe this is a change in draft philosophy that has to happen, and happen now!

Wow! Why all the Darius hate? Look, he's not the league MVP, not even Rookie of the Year, but he has played well, and has all the tools to get better and be a dominant d-lineman for a long time. There are far bigger problems/issues with the Bills then him. He is the one #1 pick over the last few years that was truly worth his pick. Come on, use your energy focusing on real problems with this team . . . . there are many options to choose from, but not him.

I would agree with, and add this other dimension to your perspective about the draft: Draft players from big-time, winning programs. No more players from Richmond, James Madison, Bethany, South Dakota State, Troy, etc. Not that any draftee is a guaranteed success, but the likelihood of a player from Alabama, LSU, Texas, SoCal, Michigan, Florida, etc., being successful is higher than small college crap-shoot picks that we seen to be so enamored with. Yes, there will always be exceptions, but overall, and in the longterm success to failure ratio, I believe this is a change in draft philosophy that has to happen, and happen now!

I had the exact same thoughts/questions? The problem was known. If the job (one of the jobs) of a coach is to put people in a position where they can be successful, what happened here? It's not like this came from no where . . . just hard to fathom how an NFL team, including players and coach in this case, can consistently look so inept without something changing. I think most of the problems on offense yesterday can be directly attributed to this center-to-OB exchange. If a play cannot start right, it certainly will not finish right. Just untenable!

What I would like to see in the next game.... George Edwards in street clothes.

Wow! I was feeling OK today until I just read this thread . . . fortunately my window is sealed shut here on the 4th floor, I don't think I could be anymore depressed after reading these posts. Really people? We're the same ones who couldn't say enough positive things about this club after the first 4-5 games, now we're jumping off the ledge as quickly as we can. My advise: step back, put it all in perspective. I ( and I'm totally honest about this ) believe this team is going to bounce back next week. "You may be right, I may be crazy, but it just may be a lunatic you're looking for."

I've liked him all year, he will go high in the draft, and in the end, I think he will be the best QB of the draft . . . would love to see him in a BIlls uniform.

And we are finally able to determine that CJ Spiller is not an NFL running back: that question answered, now we can move on.

Great 1000th post T Master, thanks. Indeed, keep the faith Bills fans.

Was it Chan's fault when he slowed up at the goal line? - that play right there says all you need to know about CJ Spiller, that play pretty much sums up his short career in Buffalo. He is soft, not very smart (as a player) , and plays with tentativeness and fear. Sorry Bill, this outline is much more reasoned and more accurate than your rant above.

. . . Jokers to the right, here I am, stuck in the middle with you . . http://youtu.be/DohRa9lsx0Q

or David Nelson, or Nick Barnett, or Brad Smith, or CJ Spiller, etc.

So you're saying we should be looking in NFL Europe?

Speaking of Linebackers: Where has Morrison been? He's had great stats the past few years, I thought he'd be a solid addition to this team, is he hurt, or just not that good? He is rarely seen. Any answers?

wow, that's pretty harsh . . . back to the thread, would you rather have Snachez then Fitz? I don't think so?

I think he has really only had one strong performance all year -- unfortunately that was against the Bills. Yes, he has been in the right place at the right time. I have no doubt there are a bunch of other QBs the would make the Jets a better team. Regardless, for the Bills to beat the Jets, Sanchez or not, we have to stop/slow down their running game, force them to throw the ball, and do something with our own offense. if we can do that like the other teams that have beat them this year, we will have success.

" It's the democratic approach when you think about it. " Democrats screw up everything. Time to get a Republican back in the White House! They'll fix the draft, giving the rich a better pick and less taxes (or easier schedule).

I think we could use him as a corner back, there are some obvious needs there. Get him on the roster Buddy!

and that is the point, there's a reason he's not on the field = he's just not that good, #9 pick or not

or back to LG, with Urbik at center and Rhinehart at RG--where he played well earlier--really, any combo of those three will be fine. As long as one of the LT gets back.

it was cute, and if she was my girl, I'd crawl all the way over there. .... just like I would be for honey (in case my wife is reading TBD posts).
