I remember that game as if it were yesterday. I was in Tampa, still single with a buddy of mine who was also from Buffalo. We were at the Frat House (wing house and bar with the best looking girls as waitresses).
We were getting so down after the first half accelerating our pitchers of beer. We high fived so many times in the second half, I remember us stating were driving to Pittsburgh the next week for the game. Of course we didn't as that is about an 18 hour drive, but what a game.
Every once in awhile I still go back and watch those highlights.
Thanks for starting the thread. Maybe we can have more of those games with the new regime this year or the next.

I know people continue to compare him to Julio Jones and AJ Green, but he reminds me of Percy Harvin without the injuries, migraines, etc. he's so dynamic and will be excellent on our team.
I can't wait for the season to start.

He would have been a cancer in the locker room, and would have missed at least half the year until he had to get on the field for his pension.
It's not worth it. Graham will probably play just fine as he is a larger corner and has been known to play well against the run in addition to the pass. We drafted two safeties last year, and another CB this year so I'm not worried about our secondary. If you remember, the first few games when he was not on the field, our secondary played fine against some good teams.
The position I'm curious about is the DE. Can Lawson and Hughes really do well this year in a 4-3 defense. They just seem too small. I know we signed that back up from the Cowboys so can he fit the bill?

The radio station in Dallas does a mean Jerry Jones parody:
OMG - that was hilarious. Jerry is such a tool. Somebody else said it well, "just when you think you can dislike someone so much, he continues to prove how much more I can't stand him."
God I hope they keep going 8-8 for the next decade and never make the playoffs. It would be awesome to have him be the impetus to 20 years without a playoff appearance constantly frustrating their fans.
One thing I loved about Mr. Wilson is he always stood up to Jerry in the owners meetings, and garnered more respect from the owners.

Aaron Rodgers....The Best QB in the Game.....Still young enough to produce at a high level for several more seasons.
+1
He's one of the best, and will produce for years.

I'll bet NF. It's the most logical. I grew up in Hamburg so I understand people not wanting to drive farther, but from a business perspective, it makes the most sense.
You can capture the largest footprint of regionalization, and if NYS really ponies up on the new stadium deal, we are set forever of keeping our Bills in Buffalo. The state will fix the road problems, and can turn into something fantastic for years to come. With this new staff, I believe we will once again become significant in the NFL.

Some of these have to be those Henna tattoos, as these people have to be the stupidest people on the planet. I have ink from college, but these are just dumb.
-
Your probably right. That is why I don't criticize everyday on this board of the FO.
BTW- Bench pressing only 15 times of 225 lbs. is pathetic for a TE.
I'm 46 and can still exceed that number. And that is with a press call, which means a 2 second pause. That is not to say I'm strong anymore as I'm getting older, but moreso he should be able to knock up that weight 30 times easily. You have to block in the NFL and there is no way you can hold off a JJ Watt with that type of weakness.
-
i read the article and love this guy. The cool part is he will face in practice Super Mario everyday, and if you can stop him, you can stop most DE. I can't wait to see EJ receive good protection from probably the largest line in football, and a good pass blocker in FJ, to give more than enough time for the WR's routes to develop.
-
Honestly, I don't know enough about him to have an opinion. The twitter comments are moronic. Just b/c he was nabbed in a cocaine possession doesn't mean he is an addict. I'm not saying he's not, just I don't have enough information to have an opinion.
If we interview him, and seems like it was just a couple of stupid decisions, then yes, give him a trial. If the FO feels he's nuts or a drug addict, then of course no.

My dad who is an old timer who loved Van. He hates the newer radio announcers as they are so biased towards the home team. I remember fandemonium like it was yesterday. I was about the 5th guy who made it on the goal post. Then someone ripped me off to try and get up there. It was a great day, almost forgot what it was like to have that kind of excitement about my Bills.
Congratulations Van the Man! It is more than well deserved.
-
I also believe they should have more time. I'm sick of cleaning house so quickly, and what is the point is Marrone banked the farm on EJ. You just hope he progresses and I think he will.
What's more likely is if Marrone has a bad year, he fires special teams or OC.
-
I'm not sure anything dooms this staff. Ownership may not be transferred until a year from now. This staff this get three years minimum. Honestly I think they will get more than that
This is a playoff caliber roster. This staff is also much better than people want to give it credit for
Agreed.
What would sink them is another 6-10 season or worse. They have to show progress. I believe they are better now in the staff and definitely the talent. We are playing some very good teams this year so it won't be easy. Now the flip side if we beat some of those top teams like the Broncos, Packers, Bears, KC, etc. and finish a 10-6 season, these guys will get extended.

Dareus vs. The alarm clock
But he's loving the new Marijuana policy.

The way that Whaley manipulated this draft is a work of art. We got Mike Williams, Bryce Brown, and a whole lot of rookies, including the best WR in the draft, and 3 gargantuan homo sapiens to keep EJ safe and warm.......and to blow holes for Fred, CJ and Bryce. This offense could become a force of nature. Big time. People will fear us. We will crush our enemies, see them driven before us, and we will hear the lamentation of their women.
I love the Viking reference. Get excited. It's May. Why not? As tough as it is, I always want to believe in my team. If they rip my heart out again, well, I'll get frustrated, take an off season to recover and do it all over again. I feel like being a Bills fan is right out of the groundhog day movie. For now, I'm excited and believe this is the most talented team we've put together in a long long time.
I do agree with you Whaley was awesome last week. He also did a great job in free agency. I don't want over the hill overpaid players vs. taking solid value players at a good price and improved our team again.

We should have taken Jace Amaro, we could have gotten another tackle latter.
BB - I normally agree with you, but here I see the RT position more important. I know a lot of you guys wanted a TE, and so did I. There's just so many picks. Now if many of these guys end up as good as I think they can be, we can definitely focus on TE next year for the right talent. I'm fine with even going second round next year if there is a stud.
I just didn't think Amaro was as good as a TE, as Kuondjio is as a Tackle. Anyway, no offense to you big guy. I like your posts.

I'm interested on how the LB core works out. We brought in some young talent, some vets, and we have a few returnees. I'm curious to see who lining up with their hand in the dirt in pass rush, who is playing Mike during passing downs, and if any claims the Sam spot.
If Bradham makes the team it's b/c of ST. I like the meanness and beef we brought in at this role. The line will be a nice competition, and where each WR will rank by the end of camp. Who will be #1, #2, and #3. It's not a lock Watkins is at the top. It could be Williams. Will Woods be #2 or 3? I'm assuming Goodwin will be a solid #4.

Yup, right next to the Federal holding center. Prison and football, Goodell will love that.
That was hilarious. I just had a belly laugh on that comment. Now it's unlikely the Bills with a state of the art stadium would ever get a superbowl, but if in Batavia, it would absolutely never have a chance. By Niagara Falls, they could make the argument and a coalition between Ontario and Buffalo could try to make it attractive.
I have nothing against Batavia and it's possible they would draw more fans into the stadium from Yracuse, and definitely Rochester. This would be at the expense of Canadian fans. My guess is the NFL covets Canadian fans more, hence they would influence NYS, and the next owner to place in Niagara Falls.
As far as the lack of infrastructure for roads, etc would be handled by the state funneling more funds for improvements in the infrastructure.
I don't care either way as I live in FL. One town over another will benefit from the stadium. What we really need though is a retractable roof stadium so we can make decisions when we want open and when not. Seattle was smart as they constructed their stadium for the noise benefit. We should do the same and we can choose when to use the elements in our favor. Also to keep December attendance up, we can also use as well.

To the previous comment, your spot on. I've said for quite some time. A new owner to take our Bills to LA would be too costly and risky. What if the Rams move there in two years? This owner is stuck with the Bills in Buffalo for 9-10 years. He also needs 2.5 billion dollars, as they don't have public funds for a stadium. Then there is the fee to move the team.
Too much risk to move in 10 years when someone can beat them to LA. I believe we'll be fine. Besides the NFL owners do not want the mess they had in Cleveland. They also do not want to create enemies with Cuomo, and Schumer. I don't agree with Schumer's politics, but he is one of the most powerful Senators in the US Senate.

It takes a QB usually two to three years to get to their full abilities. Peyton Manning, Eli Manning, Tom Brady, and Ben Rothlesberger made a lot of mistakes their rookie year.
My point is simply, let's see if he develops this year. If he improves to a middle of the pack QB, great running game and defense, we slip into the playoffs, will everyone still complain?
The answer for me simply is I don't have a strong opinion on him yet. I'm in a wait and see mode.

We only had so many draft picks and we went after as many holes in free agency. I'm not going to list all of the acquisitions as everyone knows them. They will have to make due with Chandler and at least one of the other guys. This isn't Madden.
I don't know almost any team in the NFL who has superstars at every position on the offense and defense. It was pointed out there were only 4 TEs in the draft worth it, and who do you want to take away. We need all of the guys we took. Which superstar TEs were on the street in free agency? There weren't any that are in their prime.
Lastly, where we may have a need at TE, we are now pretty stacked at WR. We're also most likely to be more of a power running team, so where we only have Chandler, we support the run through Frank the Tank.

I live in Tampa so I've watched just about every game he's played and yes he's a baller. His leaping ability makes him even taller than 6'2".
You guys will love him on the field and scratch your head on him off the field. Hopefully, Marrone gives him the stern dad talk, and he realizes if he's cut from the Bills, he's out of the NFL. He will be cheap this year, but he'll earn a serious contract next year.
What I love the most is this is the last of Graham on the field as he's pushed down the depth chart. Goodwin showed he's better and more reliable than Graham.
I'm excited for our WR corp, and as long as EJ can develop some synergy with these new players, we should move up in our passing game. My expectation is we just move up to 14-15th I passing so middle of the pack, and with this new beef on the line rank #1 in the run.
With the new LBs, we move up to the top half against the run, and at the top of the league against the pass to be a top 5 defense. That sounds like boring football, but I'd rather be 10-6 in low scoring games.

i dont understand how, 12 years in, there are still people who don't understand how the nfl schedule works.
you play:
4 games against a division from the opposing conference (the nfc north for us this year)
4 games against a division within your conference (the afc west for us this year)
6 games (home and away) against your own division
and the remaining 2 games are played against the teams in your conference who finished in the same place as you in their division the season before, (so both 4th place teams not in the afc west this year)
Thank you.
This has been covered so many times and is not that complicated. This is why we keep playing the Browns every year b/c we continuously keep finishing 4th in our division.

You can just hear Warren Sapp calling Henderson, "man why didn't they do this 15 years ago"

Guys, please keep praying. I'm in medicine and spoke with someone with some info. He's in a tough spot. He really needs our prayers. This is not a football thread for us to debate. Just pray and hopefully he'll be ok.
Thanks all.
