If Bellichick were really a genius, he would have had his CBs drop the interceptions, as well.

They also have Corey Graham listed as a safety.

The Bills website has him listed as DE.

We could just shorten it to DQB.

I assume you're being facetious... but, that notion crossed my mind, as well.

The only advertising that is obvious, is the advertising that is obvious. There is an enormous amount of money spent by advertisers that is far more subtle, from product placement, to "viral" marketing. In this age where people commonly walk around with their faces buried in their cell phones, advertising is more, and more disguised as something else. I wonder what part of the military's budget these events came out of? I would assume it was part of their recruitment budget. But, regardless, I would also assume that the military felt like they were getting something out of this. Time is money, as they say. If an NFL team is using up time to promote the military, be it a recruitment commercial, or an "honoring our troops" event, they are still providing a service. Why shouldn't they be compensated?

Schadenfreude is an enticing addiction.

Certainly. What grabbed my attention about this is that when Taylor was first hired, I feel like all I heard were negatives about everything except his mobility. His college scouting reports were poor, he had barely played in the league, and there was much speculation about his accuracy issues, his height, etc. I believe there was even a poll on this site about who would start that didn't even include him. And so, when Ryan started gushing about Taylor, I found myself thinking about Ryan's judgement concerning QBs. That does seem to be a common concern about Rex. It's comforting to hear other players, and pundits echoing his praise.

Very different situations, though. Ryan has gushed about Taylor, and the major gripe that I kept hearing upon his signing was that he was inaccurate. He does seem to be getting a lot of buzz.

Whoa... "Of the three starting options, Tyrod Taylor showed the best on Wednesday. Although he'll try to escape the pocket a bit more than you would like, his accuracy on deep throws made him stand out from both EJ Manuel and Matt Cassel."

Sorry if this was already posted on this thread (I've been out of the country for a while), but this is hilarious: http://deadspin.com/the-hilarious-brady-bashing-texts-sent-by-the-pats-bal-1702598756

Kujo becomes a reliable starter. Marqueis Gray. Fred, once again, exceeds expectations.

Does such a rule change increase the likelihood that we keep Tyrod on the roster?

It would be crazy for us to only carry two QBs, considering who we have: Matt Cassel, who has had injury issues, EJ, who has had injury issues, and Tyrod, who Rex is touting as being a great running QB. If our O-line is not significantly improved from last year (or even if it is), we could easily burn through all three of them before the end of the season. The position is just too tenuous. The argument could be made that the only reason Orton lasted 12 games is because he was so adept at collapsing into the fetal position.

Were this a civil case, a good defense attorney would settle out of court.

I'm going to cynically agree with this.

It's kinda funny...

Plus, Hogan has developed some great chemistry with EJ, if that ends up mattering.

Hell yeah! Great attitude, great work ethic, GREAT BILL!

I was wondering when the Tuel fans would come out of the woodwork to defend their guy. He certainly hasn't gotten much love lately. MAKE SOME NOISE, TUEL-TIMERS!!!

I hope Kujo will step up. But, unfortunately, that is a big "IF." Who???

Not this thread again...

I have no problem with Cassel here. Zero. BUT: Could someone with too much time on their hands photoshop some swell Derby Bonnets on these guys?

Little early to be hitting the sauce...

I'm pretty hammered right now, and it's not helping...
