Game over.

Cmon you know I meant Marvin lol

Come to think of it where has Jones been?

Wheres the flag?

Exactly. Its football and what he did is called leadership.

Huh? This one is gonna turn into a dogfight. Suggest you stick around.

Interested to see how McCarron makes out. Fell 2-3 rounds in the draft because teams thought he was cocky. Tonight he can shut them up - or not.

What are you talking about? I was responding to a post that claimed FCS (and presumably lower) QBs couldn't cut it in the bigs. See Gonzo's post # 33 for further details. What does having Tyrod Taylor have to do with any of this? Are you suggesting we should forget about grooming a prospect because of Tyrod? Or maybe you think we already have a QB prospect on the roster to develop. In either case you would be mistaken. Consider making a more reasonable argument viz "a team with fewer needs than the Bills can better afford to invest in a player like Wentz" for example. Its a better road to the same place. Tyrod Taylor doesn't need you to defend his interests. He can take care of himself.

Thank you.

Joe Flacco says hello.

Scouts and GMs will be looking closely at his performance against top level competition at the Senior Bowl Jan 30. If he does well you will have to spend a first to land him. I like him a lot and think he would be the ideal 2 year project with definite franchise QB potential. Only question marks are level of competition and, get ready for it, possible "slow eyes". Regardless IMO he has as much upside or possibly more than Goff who will be the first QB off the board. Really there is a lot to like there.

Kudos to Cogs and to the Bills, who went from having no guards to having one of the best in the game. Heck, even if the run game was limited by injury I thought he had a good game against the Jets # 1 rush defence the other day.

His hands may be large but are said also to not be very good. Lots of drops. He's also extremely slow.

Thats pretty good but it has a 200MM price tag.

That is terrible luck. Sorry to see a great player go down like that just when he's about to get his well deserved payday.

For the first 59 minutes Fouts had his nose firmly planted in the Jets rear end. Really enjoyed Boomer too. His pregame call was loud for Jets win. No hedging. As the half time segment was ending he was desperate to jump in to let everyone know how the Jets were going to come back and wrap this thing up. Super smug about it. Super stupid too.

The loss with Bledsoe against the Steeler backups years ago still casts a pall over this team and fanbase. Someone said that even if they lose the Jets will still be 10-6 and will take satisfaction from their season. I disagree and think that a loss to the Bills will curse that team for a decade. Its a huge game for the Jets and not just because it determines their playoff fate this year. They really cannot afford to lose. It will be an unpleasant memory forever.

Thats what the interview and other due diligence procedures are all about. I would make it clear to him straight up that he is in no way ready to start and sits for years in the most likely scenario. If he can't live with that I would pass. You local boys may be closer to the action than us out of towners, but he seems to have turned it around maturation wise and I have to think Jimbo could help mentor him for that.

You are right IMO. He's best served going back to school for another year but if he comes out this year he is an ideal prospect to sit behind Tyrod for a couple of years. If he comes out he will likely cost at least a third. If he waits and has another good season he is a first rounder IMO. He's mobile, has a cannon for an arm and, here's the thing, he is accurate with it. Hes also a red ass competitor. I like that.

I agree. Third round would be great but I think you need to spend a second to get him, especially where we are going to pick. Maybe Jimbo can mentor him on the maturity thingee.

If the Jets can't win this game they will be an even bigger laughing stock than the Bills.

No snark. If you know the player your opinion on whether he was in fact at less than 100% is entirely valid and appreciated.

He said before the game that he was throwing as hard as ever, but you know the player so I'll take your word for it.

Yeah, our STs stunk even with arguably one of the best gunners in the league so somehow I tend to doubt that Boobie was anything of a difference maker in that regard. I think everyone agrees he couldnt hold Fred's jock as a running back. And with respect to age, STs is where you want a younger player who can work on being a useful backup and maybe someday a starter, not exactly something you could hope for from Boobie. Seems like more a Doug Whaley defence argument than a football one. With respect to Gillislee, who I think is a good find, I wonder if he could be serviceable as a return man for kickoffs and maybe for punts. He has excellent vision and a decent burst even if not a real burner.

Fred was'nt good just because he played for a lousy team. Fred would have stood out on lots of teams, especially better one's I would think where Ds wouldn't have keyed on him as much. In the year he broke his leg, he was pretty much top three or so of all purpose backs in the league. Heck of a player. Did everything well. Wishing him well in theplayoffs.
