I think Romney is going to have a tough time just getting through the primaries. He may lose two of the first three primary votes.
Regardless of who the GOP puts up there, I think Obama is finished. He's tired of the country and the country is tired of him.
-
They playoffs remain the goal I want however obscenely crazy it'd be to get in this year.
However, a winning record and/or a sweep of NE would be absolutely outstanding.
-
Losing should never be an objective.
I wouldn't want coaches, front office staff, an owner or players committed to losing out.
Glad you are none of the above.
-
Well, to do that, we would need another TE that doesn't suck.
I'd say in the present, let's see what Lee Smith can do.
-
Underutilized? Absolutely.
I wish they'd go crazy and even use a two TE set and working over the linebackers. You manage possessions and wear out the defense.

The season is not over.

Spiller will succeed, and probably be influential in the win over the Jets.
PFT's headline will be in 14 point font: RUNNING BACK CONTROVERSY EMERGES IN BUFFALO
ESPN jumps on the Spiller train.
This board erupts in a Jackson/Spiller debate that eclipses the famed Johnson/Flutie debate.
The injustice of Fred Jackson not getting paid will continue because the cosmic forces really didn't like the cafeteria food at Coe College the one time they were called in for a Kohawks game.

We have one capable of being an all-pro on the roster. You only become an all-pro TE if you are used consistently. If you're in a system, however, that absolutely, must, for some inexplicable reason, use 4 receiver sets constantly, your chances at being an all-pro TE are diminished.

You guys read way too much into press conferences. It's like Philly fans trying to pull relevant facts from an Andy Reid presser.
Professionals don't give up when things get tough, especially when future contracts, playing time and incentives are on the line. If anything, the motivation to do well is greater at this juncture than at any other point so far. Fitzpatrick needs to earn his deal otherwise he could be cut in theory. Spiller needs to avoid bust-ville. Guys like Williams, Searcy, Hairston, Aiken...want to earn their way. If you are Nix and Gailey, you don't want to tank on a team who's owner is 90+ years old, and an ownership change could occur at any moment. Winning is job security. Not player development.
On a practical note, "player development" is a major loss in revenue when selling tickets is already difficult with a team still in the playoff hunt. You want fans buying all the new jerseys and merch, buying tickets and willingly handing money over to your business in support of the team.
The season is not over.

It begs the questions:
If Urbik is a better C, why didn't he play there last week?
How useless is Brown Colin, if he can't be relied upon at all?
I hear you....but it's tough to grab a free agent center off the street and drop him in to the game three days later. Learning line calls, snap counts, just gelling with the quarterback...it'd be the Costa/Roma debacle magnified five times.
-
He won't fail. Probably the opposite.
He runs over the Jets. Propels the Bills into the playoffs while Jackson is sidelined.
This board is daring the football gods to be benevolent this holiday with the CJ>FJ and FJ>CJ watch the board burn debate.
-
It will be our luck that Spiller goes Walter Payton on Sunday and the Monday morning headlines read "Running Back Controversy in Buffalo? Should Jackson Get a New Deal?"
-
I was looking for opinions from folks who own the Beretta PX4 handgun in 9mm. I shoot IDPA with a Glock 34 and at times a Taurus PT99 but was thinking of adding the Beretta to the collection and trying a smaller, but quality, handgun. I'm interested in the PX4 because of the rotating barrel design.
-
Better have a heavy dose of McIntyre and Chandler/and Smith to go along with CJ.
Isn't Lee Smith supposed to be good at run blocking?
-
I watched quite a bit of Aiken in college following a friend's kid who played for Memphis. I'm a fan from what I saw, and I was delighted he fell to the Bills as he was one of the best receivers in the draft. Super strong, great hands.
UCF, and Aiken especially, saw a lot of press coverage and he often beat it.
-
Let's hope Gailey gets this message. I think all of you have relevant points about our stale offense.
-
I think Dareus is this generation's Warren Sapp. Dareus will be an absolutely dominant lineman with reinforcements behind him. I wouldn't change the pick.
-
Beat the Jets, and then I'll believe you, Mr. Mystery Guest.
You and your teammates don't need any more reasons to go out, impose your will, and win this game.
-
The decision to promote Aiken to the 53 man roster is what just won the Jets game.
I feel he's that good. He should have been at WR2 out of camp. He will be the receiver that Fitzpatrick and Johnson need.
-
Draft defense, get your WR help through free agency.
-
I think signing and then turning around and suddenly cutting players isn't going to make Buffalo an attractive place for free agents. While you can do this sort of thing in Madden, it's toxic insofar as business relationships go and the Bills have more than enough challenges landing free agents already.
-
I wouldn't dump Fitz. Upgrade the WRs with proven WR talent as an appropriate investment in your QB and offense.
No rookies or practice squad guys or feel good stories.
2012 will have some very good talent available.
-
The Bills can't go heavy on the shotgun this week. I'm worried when I read Urbik has practiced most of the snaps out of the shotgun formation. The Jets will be able to diagnose the plays almost instantly.
And Spiller without McIntyre isn't going to scare the Jets.
-
I agree. I'd love to know why the Bills continually try to make positions on a football team extinct.
I'd run the Jets to death again like the Broncos did. Run and pound away at them.
Dareus is great but . . .

Dareus has been a great pick for the Bills. I wouldn't change it.
