  1. Last year someone said we should sign a midget running back, give him the ball and then proceed to throw him for first downs. At the time I thought that was the most idiotic thing I'd ever read. I was wrong. Fowler's not great but moving an all-pro LT who is a converted TE to center is just the worst idea ever. Actually signing or drafting someone would be a much better option.
  2. Remember BF's post with the Mac n Cheese recipie? That was classic!
  3. I'm kind of shocked that Chicago didn't sign Carr as soon as he was cut. Carr's like Peyton Freaking Manning next to Grossberger.
  4. Simon, If you spend your time addressing every "mindless observation" on this board or hell even in this thread you're like to either go mad or die of exhaustion. I got a particular giggle of of some of the Turner criticisms from people who clearly don't have a clue about the guy. Keep fighting the good fight.
  5. One dozen chicken wings to anyone that can show me either of the two LB's we lost/traded this offseason anywhere near Turner during those runs!
  6. One thing that we may have forgotten is that we used to have a defensive lineman that was capable of doing both. Although he was a fat tube of goo Sam Adams was able to shoot into the backfield with amazing speed when he wanted to. For reasons that still seem bizarre, neither he nor Pat Williams were instructed penetrate but rather hold the line. I would have loved to seen what those two could do if they were turned loose.
  7. Someone should do an article that points out the "biggest losers" when it comes to sports writers. Clearly if you're working for Yahoo Sports you've got an instant advantage. It's ironic that he said the Bills overpaid for their three linemen but fails to mention the outrageous deal that the Pats gave to We Welker.
  8. Is this the 4th or 5th year in a row where they've had 2 first round draft choices?
  9. Read this, it will make you feel better! http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/17662270/site/newsweek/
  10. You actually used "pwned" on a Bills message board? Um, the Quake 4 forums are that way ==> Seriously though, if you can't appreciate what Jaworski brings to the table then you're clearly not paying attention. Congratulations on going from "new poster" to official rollercoaster rider in 41 posts! You've truly entered into an elite group with that achievement, ironically none of them are around here anymore.....go figure.
  11. Kelly, Your position with regard to Spikes is noble but highly unrealistic. Spikes was brought in at a large cost to do a job. Due to injury he's no longer able to do that job and therefore won't be compensated at the same rate. It's not fair, it's not nice but it's just a reality of the life of a player in the NFL. The players all know that it's business and it's about production. They also know that their career can end with a single injury. In many respects, it's not much different that what happened to Sam Cowart
  12. If an NFL linebacker can't add 6 pounds of muscle in an offseason then I wouldn't have a lot of confidence in our training staff. The bigger question is, how much of a difference does 6 pounds make when the offensive linemen outweigh you by more than 70 lbs?
  13. 4.8 in the 40 isn't that big of a deal, I could do that easily! Oh way, that's 4.8, I thought it said 48......nevermind.
  14. Funny, I didn't realize Brady wanted to be one of the Backstreet Boys?
  15. Anyone know what he ran at the combine. After watching the video I wouldn't be surprised if it was 4.0. He literally looked twice as fast as everyone around him. The dude's part Cheetah!
  16. I keep seeing people saying that the Bills are shopping Takeo. I haven't seen this mentioned anywhere else, can someone provide a link or something that provides some tint of credibility to this.
  17. SDS, There's no need to make a bunch of technical mumbo jumbo excuses. We all know it was Rosen!
  18. Somebody get Corey Moore and Mike Rockwood's agents on the phone asap. We've found them a home!!
  19. Most of the people that are bitching don't have 1/1000th of the football acumen of the Bills current staff. They like to B word because it makes them feel intelligent and this forum gives them a place where they can have their 15 minutes of fame, or so they think. The reality is these toons are no different from trolls like ICE. They're not interested in intelligent discourse, they bring nothing to the table and their posts aren't worth reading.
  20. Wow, you saw him play? I guess we should just take your word for it then because your a keen assesor of talent right? I mean if you saw him play you've obviously done the same amount of work as the Bills coaching staff. You probably saw him play every snap against every opponent last year. That combined with your intrinsic understanding of assignments, blocking schemes and techniques certainly makes you a better judge of this guys ability that any of the current Bills staff. I'll put my faith in someone who actually knows what they're looking at, thanks!
  21. You mean faking injuries when they don't have time outs?
  22. I guess we should just forfiet the 2007-2008 season now OMG THE PATRIOTS SIGNED A LINEBACKER!!! Let's hope they waste all of their cash on one player.
  23. Why isn't "stupid" one of the choices?
  24. I find it interesting that many of the "concerns" here are the exact same arguments that were used when we inked Schoebel to a long term deal. That seems to have worked out ok.
