Your comments about Gilmore are simply a reflection of your bias against first round DBs and not an objective critique of his performance overall. Of course he was rusty today and one could argue he was a bit of a liability with the club on his wrist but your generalizations of him are wrong. RTB

Please tell me this thread is a joke, what a ridiculous idea. Carpenter may steal the job from Hopkins. He's nailed 2 kick from over 50 and can get it through the end zone, and you want a 6th round pick instead??? I'm going to go drink more. RTB

I'm really sick of justifying losses, especially in winnable games, as some sort of moral victory. It's the acceptance of mediocrity at all levels of the franchise that keeps this team in the cellar. RTB

It's a much bigger mistake to not have a legitimate replacement for your QB than it is at LG. Legursky was pegged as the starter and got hurt. Tuel was pegged as the backup and was a colossal, season crushing front office screw up. RTB

Anyone know why we would pick Moorman over Kluwe? My impression was Moormans leg was dying and it was right to release him. Sure it's great from a nostalgic standpoint but I'm not convinced he was the best option out there. RTB

Are you kidding me? There are absolutely no positives to having your rookie hopefully future franchise QB sitting in the booth on game days. None. There is no better experience than being in the game and learning from your mistakes. You can't do that from the booth. We knew playoffs were a pipe dream coming into the season, so all I wanted from this year was to see steady incremental development of our QB. That can't happen on the bench. RTB

He's Lee Evans on the Ravens! Reminds me of one of the all time most pathetic discussions on Evans in Baltimore after he was invisible for half his first season there : that he was having a big impact because he could stretch the field. If TJ isn't catching the ball or being targeted, he's not stretching the field. Running a fast guy deep doesn't fool or get the attention of defenses. Catching the long ball does. I hope he starts catching some soon. Chandler has my vote for biggest disappointment so far. RTB

This is an absolutely ridiculous comment. The Ralph was loud and it was rocking. The fans were outstanding. When EJ was waving his hands to pump up the crowd it was because he was trying to lead his team, and the fans responded loudly to his gestures with a chant of "EJ" reverberating throughout the stadium. I agree with GG's comments about the atmosphere in the stadium, it was great. The best way to counteract the constant media negativity that permeates this franchise is to start winning. W's cure all, and until that happens you can expect more of the same. RTB

With 5 minutes left we had to score points. It didn't matter whether we huddled or not, the fact that we had the ball twice with the lead, once in Pats* territory, and did nothing is what cost us the game. Every person in that stadium knew if Brady got the ball back he was going to march them down the field. The Pats had their timeouts and the 2 minute warning with 5 mins to go. The no huddle didn't cost us the game, lack of execution did. RTB

I'd place him on IR, keep him out of the locker room, and tell him and his agent he's getting the tag next year too. RTB

For the love of God we can't catch a friggin break. I can't believe I have to watch Kolb in the opener. RTB

Not handling adversity was a big knock against Geno. He had a chance to completely blow that impression out of the water and blew it. All he did was re-enforce the idea that he wilts under pressure. RTB

My god the douche is strong in this thread. As shocked as I am that they didn't, there is absolutely NO way you can say the Bills panicked. That's ridiculous. You can argue the pick, but you can't argue that the Bills got the exact player they targeted and picked up additional picks in the process. RTB

Please tell me this is a joke. I'm all for my alma mater lowering academic standards so we can get a few more W's, but for the love of god this Einstein better be the next RG3 to justify going this low. RTB

I can't see any downside to this move. RTB

I'd like to believe that with Marone's emphasis on players and how he wants to run the team, Nelson would be the first person to know he wasn't being tendered. I'm inclined to think this is just speculation. RTB

Super Bowl RTB

Mr. Brandon, my suggestions : 1) Hire Bill Cowher 2) Draft Geno Smith Super Bowl. RTB

The guy who controls the purse strings controls the team, no matter what this press conference suggests. Nothing changes until the team is sold. RTB

If Brandon is in charge of football operations we might as well just suspend the team until it is sold. He has already proven he knows nothing about the football side of things, he needs to stick to the marketing. If this is true it will be the biggest step backward since we lost our last true GM in John Butler. RTB I've got a real bad feeling about all of this

It was my understanding that corporations cannot buy an NFL franchise per NFL rules. RTB

Did anyone take Chan seriously whe he said this about CJ? What Chan should have said is "I'm an idiot. I out think myself, never an opposing coach, by thinking I'm an offensive genius." Chan threw CJ under the bus because he has no clue how to call an offensive game plan. Yeah, it worked for 6 games at the beginning of last season. Since then, ZERO. RTB

I think this lease is excellent. It will likely keep the Bills in town for a couple of years after Ralph dies, which will give the team, city, and state the time to negotiate a new downtown stadium. The has the potential to be very good for Buffalo and the Bills. RTB

Ralph thinks we are going to the playoffs. Brandon and the other cast of idiots just tell him all is good and Fitz might make the pro-bowl. Nothing changes until ownership changes. I guess that's the PC way of talking about an owner who by all public accounts has done zero to ensure the city that made him a rich man retains its pathetic football team. Douche-bags, every one of them. RTB

I cannot for the life of me wrap my brain around the fact that some people still think Fitz is a viable QB. Maybe with a coach who wasn't a douche bag and knew how to call plays he might reach average. That is his ceiling. He is the reason very team stacks the box against the run and we never make them pay. He just can't make the throws or be consistent, except for game ending picks. RTB
