  1. To answer the question, NO. But it does allow us to pay our stud D-lineman as if they were franchise QBs...
  2. I had tendinitis for a while after my ACL surgery. It's very common at the patellar tendon, where they harvest the material to craft a new ACL. The odd thing is that I thought most pro athletes got cadaver grafts so they can avoid this situation. The graft harvest site is always the worst part of the healing process, and with a cadaver graft you bypass all that. In any case, it never got really bad - I didn't notice it while in the act of skiing, but the tendon would be screaming at me every lift ride up the mountain. It took about three years before it went away. Just in time for me to tear the other ACL! Keep in mind I am not a freakish professional athlete with access to state of the art rehab facilities.
  3. I don't know, maybe it's not so crazy. Special Teams gunner?
  4. Works out great for the Bills - They are the only team in the division that is guaranteed a Brady-free game vs. the Pats**!
  5. It's irrelevant. Brady and the Pats were dominating the NFL well before 2007.
  6. That is, without question, the worst song that I have ever heard. In my life, ever.
  7. Not a sexy pick, but the aggravating truth is that you have to draft a DB somewhere in the first three rounds with regularity. The massive consequences of getting burned by NFL receivers means that you can't afford to skimp on talent there. I will choke this pick down and like it.
  8. Enough with the hate already. Chandler was no All-Pro, but he made a ton of clutch 3rd down grabs over the years, for a team that otherwise made an art form out of going 3 and out. He also missed just three games in the last 4 years.
  9. I don't think inclusion on the Wall is all about stats and league-wide accolades - Phil Hansen is a perfect example. It's all about the players that were the undisputed leaders; the guys who were true Bills to the bone, year in and year out, played the hardest and made plays week after week. That's why Freddie is a shoo-in. He always had a complimentary RB taking touches away from him, but you always know that when Fred gets the ball, great things can happen.
  10. Another amateur opinion piece masquerading as real journalism - but I tend to agree that EJ is not nearly as doomed as he is perceived to be. While he has been less than stellar, you can't say that he has been terrible. He could very well develop into The Guy.
  11. Rex was having a hard time coming up with the words to describe his quarterbacks. He did not sound very confident in any of them. But with the skill players on the team right now, it probably doesn't matter much.
  12. Chandler came through with some big-time catches over the years. Lots of those 3rd-and-impossible kind of plays. I'll miss seeing him on Sundays.
  13. Still better than my job.
  14. He will get a mid-sized contract, wherever he goes. The numbers don't lie - Spiller has had good years and lean years, and he will probably get a small premium for his natural ability and first-rounderness.
  15. Well, he's just about the best option available, and they have to bring in somebody. Might as well be Mark Sanchez. Debate all you want, but there is nobody demonstrably better on the market right now.
  16. If I was getting paid $4 million to do nothing next year, I wouldn't care if I ever had another job interview for the rest of my life. If he invests wisely, he never has to work again.
  17. I'm rolling with it. I can't believe he would just overhaul the D into a 3-4 scheme just because he's Rex Ryan. The Bills had great success and the right personnel for the 4-3. If it ain't broke, I can't see why he would try to fix it. Anyway, if nothing else, it will be nice to have a coach with a personality for once!
  18. If I'm Sammy: I feel young, fit, and wealthy. I feel blessed to make a living as a star athlete. Maybe I feel a little cold, because I live in Buffalo.
  19. Like he initiated a tackle before the ball arrived, and made no effort whatsoever to play said ball or even acknowledge that it existed?
  20. I don't know, lots of mysterious "sources" with vague quotes being used to support a pre-formed opinion. The writer obviously didn't interview anyone who is actually part of the Bills organization. Not saying his premise isn't true, but this is pretty bogus journalism.
  21. The longer they wait, the fewer options will be available.
  22. Come on, OP, is this your first season as a Bills fan?
