I disagree. Pears has played well when healthy and was by no means the weak link the past couple of years. He was banged up all last season, hence; his play suffered a great deal.
I would love Cyrus to walk in and take the starting job from him quite quickly, but it hasn't happened yet. He's relatively a newbie when it comes to football, so it really shouldn't come as any surprise he hasn't mastered all the nuances of the position yet. Shame on him, it's only 3-days into his first training camp, right? But then again, if he doesn't beat out Pears, hopefully the Bills will cut his azz...
