Did you photoshop that Newton picture or find it somewhere?

Someone had posted something racially charged about if Cam Newton was white he would be successful and used Akili Smith and JaMarcus Russell as examples of black QBs not having success in this league. My guess is the post was reported and removed from here. I had seen it yesterday and was quite offended to be honest. I'm pretty sure that's what he was responding to...

I agree with you that a franchise QB is needed to win in this league, I just think he may already be on this roster, and I just don't like the QBs available for the taking this year with a #3 pick. I'm very excited to see what Fitzy does with an entire offseason and preseason to prepare as a starter. So if the FO likes what they see in Stanzi (which I have no opinion of him because I have rarely seen him play) and think he could be "the guy", and could get him in rounds 3 or 4, I say build the defense up (which was our MAJOR problem area last year, especially against the run) with the top 2 picks rather than gamble on a one year sensation who seemed to me to be a more effective running QB than passing one...or on a Big 12 spread QB. Unless the FO is totally sold on either guy I would not take that risk.

I would feel way better if we could get a guy like this in round 3 or 4 and have him learn under Fitzpatrick for a couple of years than to spend the #3 overall on Newton and Gabbert and have it potentially blow up in our faces.

Welcome!! I'm a Bills fan living in Pittsburgh. I am the ULTIMATE Squealer hater and have long enjoyed the Packers, so no question I was thrilled when you guys won it. Sqealer fans seem to enjoy getting their rocks off by saying "Got 6?", so I've been saying that if I were a Pack fan I'd be shooting back "Got 13?". Aaron Rodgers is a stud, the WR corps is tremendous, the defense is fantastic, and if I heard right I think that GB has the 2nd youngest team in the NFL. They should be primed for contention for a few years now. Enjoy that SB winning feeling, it is something us Bills fan will shed tears over when it finally happens!! GO BILLS!!!

Gotta go with my screen name Machine Gun Kelly and one that a friend of mine made up... "Drew Bledsoe much he needed a transfusion"...from when he played for the Patsies* Always liked "Golden Wheels" "the Juice" "Thurmanator" "SpiderMan" This would be the perfect question for Chris Berman to answer.

I was in Pittsburgh for the weekend
machinegun12 replied to Frostbelt City's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I live in the South Hills of Pittsburgh and the entire city was black and gold for much of the playoffs right up to the Super Bowl. The morning after the SB I went to the gym and they had already taken down all of the black and gold balloons and Steeler stuff that had decorated the front desk/entrance area. And while I proudly wore my Bills sweatshirt (as I do virtually every day the weather calls for one) I swear without exaggeration I did not see a SINGLE person with ANY Steeler apparel on whatsoever. Me personally, I would take great pride in the fact that my team had just played for the championship of the NFL and would have whole heartedly worn Buffalo Bill gear the day after the loss (hell...I wear it whole heartedly after ANY loss). It just showed me how fickle the fans here are. With all the "Stairway to Seven" and "Knockin on Seven's Door" crap going on and the way I heard the fans talking, it was a given to them they had it won. I deal with these fans here every day of my life. I know I'm in the minority here, but I hate the Steelers more than the Patsies*, and it is directly attributed to their obnoxious, ignorant fans. So when I stood on the front porch of my house after the game and let out a primal, inhuman roar that lasted an estimated 15-20 seconds (a lifetime in my mind) while the dejected Steeler fans left the SB party a few houses down the street, I thought to myself the only time I'll scream more euphorically is when the Bills finally bring it home. Until then I'll PROUDLY wear my Buffalo Bills gear. -
Cam Newton gets huge endoresement deal
machinegun12 replied to papazoid's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I don't think clothing lines are like indie rock bands. It's sportswear...so yes, you're probably gonna find it at Dick's because the goal of a business is profit. They didn't sellout, they became successful. I really hope you get the help you need and find a way to bury this hatchet with "UA", which I guess was the pet name you gave to your obsession. -
I, for one, would love to see the Bills take this gamble. Likely wouldn't happen but if he could come back at even 80% of what he was he would be an excellent pickup for any team. http://sports.espn.go.com/new-york/nfl/news/story?id=6115965

Grammar police ALERT...Grammar police ALERT!!!! Counterfeit. Sorry, it was bound to happen. Just figured I would beat them to the punch. Oh wait, does that make me one of them? NOOOOO!!!!!!

Are there any power RBs in this draft?
machinegun12 replied to PromoTheRobot's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Funny. -
What I would give to see the Bills passing around that Lombardi trophy. Just one taste of that moment is all I want. Sure hope Merriman returns to form and can help deliver what us Bills fans would treasure forever.

Especially considering Nike won NFL jersey rights in 2012. -
Albert Haynesworth charged w/assault, road rage
machinegun12 replied to Beerball's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
The Redskins must feel wonderful after giving such a fine young man so much money. -
Totally agree with Bruce Smith as our greatest HOFer from that era. To me, it is very simple...he is the only guy on that list that ranks in the top 10 all time at his position (aside from Tasker, but I don't think he'll make it, and I don't think that special-teamer is technically a "position"). My order goes like this... Bruce, Thurman, Jim Kelly, Marv, then Reed.

Curtis Martin had a career 4.0 yards/carry while AVERAGING nearly 21 carries a game. He was a tremendous and productive workhorse who, I think, deserves the Hall tenfold over Bettis.
-
Are you kidding? Deion was one of the all-time great CBs (teams routinely IGNORED the side of the field he covered) and Marshall Faulk is the best all-purpose back the game has seen. Those 2 guys are locks as far as I'm concerned. It seems to me the Hall has a knack for letting one WR in at a time, so if Cris Carter gets in, I certainly don't see Reed getting in this year. And vice versa, if Reed is in, then Carter waits another year. I don't know if I'm in the minority here or not, but I have never really thought of Jerome Bettis as a hall of famer. He was a big, fat battering ram who in 13 pro seasons averaged over 4.0 yards a carry a whooping total of 4 times. The game that defines his career, to me, was the first game in 2004 vs the Raiders...5 carries, 1 yard, 3 TDs. He was a bona-fide FB who was fed the ball in a run first offense for a long period of time.

How do Reed's SB numbers stack up against Cris Carter's?
-
I really think it's gonna come down to Cris Carter or Andre Reed. Whichever doesn't get in this year I think is in next year. I think Shannon Sharpe is the wildcard. I'm not sure if the voters consider WR and TE in the same group, but my theory is they're only going to put in 1 reciver at a time, and Shannon Sharpe was an incredible TE and to me seems like a first ballot player. That may push Reed/Carter off one more year. The Hall would be a joke to me if Jason Peters ever got in. The guy is still making Pro Bowls?! What a flipping joke. Every single game I watch of the Eagles that fat schmuck gets blown by repeatedly. Hate how players continue making Pro Bowls based on their past reputations. I really think Flutie should make it based on his CFL days (it is the Pro Football Hall of Fame, not the NFL Hall of Fame), I think Winfield and Williams are very, very good players, but neither of them seem to shout Hall of Famer in my opinion.

What should we do for the QB position?
machinegun12 replied to The Buffalo Irishman's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I am pretty excited to see what Fitzpatrick can do with an entire offseason and preseason to prep as a starter going into a season. I really think you need a veteran backup (I really like Bruce Gradkowski but he's a RFA) and spend the #3 pick on a D-lineman and try building up our run defense. -
I have a FANTASTIC idea...why don't they make it a flag football game played in the sand. NOBODY would get injured then!! Sorry Robert Edwards.
