Sounds like a cap move, where the guy is getting paid too much for a big man with a potential foot problem. They were kind enough to give him time to sign elsewhere for a more rational salary. I don't think the Bills need to chase after this, but lately McBeane seems to have a thing for good players with injury histories.

Rafael Bush retires; Bills sign Kurt Coleman
skibum replied to CNY315's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Sounds like a win for everyone. Kurt Coleman looks like a very solid pickup, and Bush gets to retire comfortably (I hope) at 32. Can you imagine retiring at 30-freaking-two, with millions in the bank? -
My favorite Fred move ever was against the Giants in 2011, when he was breaking away on an 80 yard TD, and the DB was just about to catch him as both ran full-speed toward the end zone. Out of nowhere and maintaining full forward speed, Fred makes a little shift to the left at a low angle, which is enough to send the DB off into no-man's land while Fred scores an easy TD. Magical old-man powers right there. There's no name for it that I know of, but Fred had that sudden open-field change of direction at full gallop that made it so hard to close on him.

CBS Lists Top 10 Coaches, include McDermott
skibum replied to RochesterLifer's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
The Super Bowl is a pretty big game, so I’m told, and Tomlin has won twice. -
Odds are they will be better than that, but as of right now the offense still sucks until they prove otherwise.

When did Don Beebe become a Bills legend???
skibum replied to Ethan in Cleveland's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
At the time, he was the fastest white guy anyone had ever seen. I think that’s part of the legend, too. -
Who Was Better: Bruce Smith or Reggie White
skibum replied to Phil The Thrill's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Maybe because it's not true? Is there any real data to support that theory, or does everyone just assume that a scheme with 4 down lineman instead of 3 makes it easier for a DE to get sacks? I mean, it sounds logical, but is it actually true, and what's the proof? -

skibum replied to Phil The Thrill's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I've never heard anyone outside the Bills fan universe say that Bruce was better. Reggie just mauled people. He was a scary dude. -
I love how we all know our Super Bowl beatdowns by heart. I have a vintage beer coozy with that XXV logo on it.

Wade Phillips for benching Flutie. -
Who goes up on the Buffalo Bills “Wall of Shame”
skibum replied to BuffaloBill's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Travis Henry should get a dishonorable mention; not for anything specific he did to the team, but that guy royally screwed up a promising career by being a colossal dumbass in life. -
Matt Miller: 2020 draft set to have a "historic group" at WR, RB
skibum replied to Logic's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I think it's also great that they are taking care of the trenches and TE first. Your skill players all look better with good blocking. It generally doesn't work the other way around. -
Matt Miller: 2020 draft set to have a "historic group" at WR, RB
skibum replied to Logic's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Also an historic collection of sweet football names at the WR position. -
As an assistant WR coach, maybe. If he's into that kind of thing, I have no idea. Never met the guy.

Baller. What else can you say? I think it's nice to see some swagger in Cleveland; they may be the only franchise that's suffered more than the Bills.

2015, which was a stacked roster on paper at that time. Mario, Jerry, Richie, McCoy, Cordy Glenn, Aaron WIlliams, Sammy and Robert Woods at WR, a full compliment of solid OL, Kyle, Dareus, GIlmore/Darby, Clay (who was still considered really good at the time). And what happened? Mediocrity. That's why I'm not getting too pumped up about this year. Remember, there are 31 other teams also trying to win.

I had a big man-crush on Butler going into the draft, but I'm not a football expert and those who are apparently didn't think he was all that. I think the current regime drafts really well, so I'm behind their choices 100%.

Steve Tasker belongs in the Hall of Fame
skibum replied to HOUSE's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Can we please stop with this? It's ridiculous. I love the guy, but the Bills' Wall of Fame is as far as it goes for Tasker.
