DC Grid

Do they keep stats on individual CBs....specifically to the extent they give up big plays? I don't know what the numbers would be but i've never seen a CB get more often in an entire season than Williams did in the games he played this year. It's hard not to notice how much better the DBs have played as a whole since his departure. I would hate to see him step back into any starting role ever.

Alright the Bills are 5-7 showing signs of life,but banged up and almost guaranteed to finish 7-9 or 8-8....not in the playoffs, and surprise drafting just out of the top 10. So what do you want to see this offseason? I expect that Ralph's status means everyone in the don't office, and also the coaching staff is safe. Drafting at 11 to 16 it seems the Bills could get a falling QB like Geno or Barkley or their choice of whoever else may emerge, barring a completely insane run on reach QBs early. With all that in mind, i'd love to see them spend their money this offseason on Wes Welker. Many were eager to trash the Bills spending spree earlier this year, but it seems clear that while anderson was a disaster Mario looks worth the scratch (relative to how FAs work). Why not follow it up by grabbing a great possession WR who can complete the WR corps, be a great option for Fitz and then a young 1at round QB starting out? Added bonus it hurts the Pats. If the Bills can do that plus resign their key FAs like Byrd, maybe there's reason to think this awful drought might be ending next year....maybe.

Makes sense. Klein is just like Tebow, and he's so good he can't even push a strugling Sanchez.

One thing that stands out in a good way is that the success rate seems to be improving. The past two years we've seen 3 arguably guaranteed franchise QBs taken (Cam, Luck, RG3) Two very possible franchise QBs (Ponder, Tannehill) and Two potentially serviceable QBs (Weeden and Gabbert). I know Gabbert had a horrible first year, but this year he has showed a lot more promise. In all I don't think any of the teams, save the Browns, regret their first round QB picks over the past 2 years....and part of the Browns regret is that they will likely be drafting high enough this year to grab a true franchise QB. That doesn't mean you should always take a QB in the first round, but if it is a guy that has a consensus first round grade there seems to be some strong indicators that his selection will be a great choice.

Trying to appreciate how bad Gilmore is playing on a defense that is also starting Aaron Williams, is like trying to hear a dog whistle while a fog horn is blowing.

The Bills will get between 6-8 wins this year, assuring themselves a mid range draft pick and securing years more of stagnation. You're right that it's not time to panic, it's time to accept that the Bills are a below average team, with extermely poor defensive coaching, that is still a long way from the playoffs.

Mistake. He will make them look really dumb when another team signs him this week.

Newspapers that charge immediately lose my attention, but it makes sense their doing so. Local newspapers are like the NHL, they have a diehard customer base that will walk through hell for them and are casually enjoyed by people like me who occasionally stumble on an article or two that are interesting, but don't give damn about whether they exist or not. This is why, like hockey they can overcharge for their services...in this sense they also are like pay per view events. Unlike PPV and hockey though, the vast majority of newsprint supporters are over the age of fifty and dying off. When the generation that was born in the 60s is gone, local newspapers will be too.

I think as everyone is expecting it, coaches are best off pretending they will do it but not calling a timeout. I keep seeing missed and blocked kicks on first tries before timeouts because the offense is treating it like a dry run.

Spiller must have a broken collar bone....for those who think it could be anything less you obviously have forgotten that God hates the Bills.

How bad is dareus hurt? Looks like he hurt his wrist, then never came back.

Time to pull a skins. Trade everything you have to and get a Franchise QB next draft.

Yes we Chan....awesome shirt..

Wilson had a good first partial game against some second stringers, but while i like the guy and was one of those who wanted the Bills to draft him (no earlier than late 3rd early 4th) I'd say the praise is a little over the top at this point. Watching the game i was surprised how uncomfotable Wilson still looks in the pocket. He was great on the move, but if Tenn had actually game planned for him and forced him to throw from the pocket I think they would have feasted on a QB who looks to have a LONG way to go. If Wilson really is a good as some are saying he'll get a chance to show it soon enough because Flynn also seemed Bradford esqe in his inability to extend beyond a 10 yard range....but perhaps that is a rush to judgement too, just one game into the preseason.

Depends on where you are. That is the comcast sports network for DC so if you arent in Buffalo and you get the channel, you'll be able to watch it live.

Same here. Even worse, for some reason local preseason coverage is almost always cropped or not in HD.

I would watch it alone with my cell phone off because most of the people I know are Pats and Skins fans. Win or lose, I don't think there's a chance I'd go to work the week afterwards. That would either be an awesome week or a really really bad one.

That completely made my day.

A second round pick is FAR to valuable for this guy. That's a Cody Glenn or Rob Gronkowski. Or at least a solid role player if you dont mess up. IF I was one hundred percent sold on Fitz as the franchise, then maybe a 3rd or 4th rounder makes sense, but until then the Bills need to stockpile picks for a potential Redskins esque trade as unlike the Skins, the Bills might truly be only a franchise QB away from the start of another good run.

Zero chance Foles gets put on the PS. Teams would be sprinting to sign him. Hopefully including the Bills.

Sorry for your loss. Those covers were cool. The Oilers one especially.

DTV stinks? Compared to what? I've had Comcast, Timewarner, Cox Cable, they all are so much worse its laughable. The part I found really amazing is that living only 2 miles from where I had Comcast I now have DVT, and while a bad storm distorts the signal 4-5 times a year for a couple of hours a shot, Comcast use to be down at least 15 or so days a year for the same ammount of time. Twice in the 4 years I had comcast the entire neighborhood feed went down for 3 freaking days. And we're not talking about some backwoods locale, this occured in the heart of Arlington.

I was a kid in WI, so I started watching the game at home on tv, but down by 3 scores I headed out to the local rink to play hockey. When I got back home my dad informed me that the Bills had found a way to win, and that I should shovel the damn driveway.
