What a Tuel

Is this the same "source" that says the Bills are interested in Cutler/Romo? They just make **** up. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000754385/article/tyrod-taylors-contract-gives-bills-options-in-offseason

Watkins explained what happened. He was practicing and running full speed, and a lineman running backwards stepped on his foot and almost broke it again. They determined it wasn't broken when they saw a specialist, but another surgery may be necessary to get rid of the pain. He will be fine next year. Stop exaggerating. As I have said many times before, Julio Jones missed the same amount of time his first 3 years, and had about the same stats as Sammy Watkins.

There is no reason to think it won't get better. Someone will likely sign Robert Woods next year, but Sammy will be fine. I do think we need to draft a starting WR, and pick up a free agent WR though.

Last year it was "The Bills won't be playing the crappy NFC East next year, they've got the tough NFC West" This year it is "The Bills won't be playing the crappy NFC West next year, they've got the tough NFC South"

My team has been tanking lately. Need some help on my lineup, these damn players are alternating 20 point games with 3 point games (I'm looking at you Davante Adams) Really struggling with who to play at the WR and TE positions. My team has been awful lately, so I went for the matchups this week. What would you change:

MG and Karlos had a field day? On their 4 carries each? Mike Gillislee 4 carries 81 yards 1 td 1st Carry - 10 yards 2nd Carry - 2 yards 3rd Carry - 60 yard run TD 4th Carry - 9 yard run Karlos Williams 4 carries 41 yards 1st Carry - 11 yards 2nd Carry - 7 yards 3rd Carry - 7 yards 4th Carry - 16 yards Do you want to know why they were successful? Because we were down by like 3 scores on every single one of their runs. Gillislee's 60 yard run was when we were down 28 to 3. Do you think they may have played a little bit of deep coverage once we took out Shady? They had the lead and time on their side with about a quarter and a half left in the game. They wanted us to run.

Are you really arguing again that a full time Gillislee would put up Shady-like stats given the opportunity? Secondly, if Shady's contract is part of the conversation then Karlos Williams fudging up surely has to be. I mean, say we don't get Shady, and we pick up Gillislee and Karlos like you say. Karlos busts out. So now the Buffalo Bills have Gillislee as their feature back. And you suggest that we would be better off because we wouldn't use the cap on Shady? What?This is nuts.

Turnovers have been noticeably lacking for the Bills right? I mean we don't turn the ball over, but I feel like we don't get a whole lot either.

Trying to watch this game on my phone without using too much data watching the ads is nearly impossible. Everytime I tune back in its a commerical or "we'll be right back"

They have had incredible luck this year. Turnovers have kept them in the playoff race, no doubt about it in my mind. Some would call that good defense, and some of it is, but picking a two point conversion for a 2pt return to win the game? No one would bet on that happening. No one.

No, this is Carr's MO. He sucks for 2.5-3 quarters and then says "oh , we are going to lose. Better step up."

You are projecting a 2,000 yard season off of 111 carries over 2 years? Also, I remember going back and forth about this with you in the offseason. Your point was a mix of "I don't think Shady has it in him to take the opportunities he left on the field this year, and that injuries, and age would nag him into retirement". You were wrong. Now you are shifting it to "well he's doing it because the offense is enabling him". wtf kind of point is that?

Yeah, why bother trying 2 games out of playoff contention with 4 games left! Give up and make it 17! Loser's mentality.

I'm with you. Those people live for the day they can say "if it wasn't for you rooting for our team, we could have a logical discussion about how to rebuild it"

After the 1st Oakland TD I was like - "ok just don't go 3 and out." We bring out the god damn wildcat for two plays in a row. After the punt - "ok just stop them, defense, you've done ok so far" Oakland immediately scores a TD. After the 2nd Oakland TD - I was like "ok... Tyrod work some magic, we are still up by one, just don't go three and out" We go three and out After the punt - "ok defense, for the love of god just stop them" Oakland immediately scores a 3rd TD After the 3rd Oakland TD, "ok.....only one score down, you can't possibly go 3 and out again" WTF After the punt and subsequent defensive stop "ok we got a stop, just get it together guys!" Tyrod throws an interception (off of his arm being hit), Raiders score a 4th td. This is what infuriated me the most. The utter and sudden collapse of what looked like a promising game. How the f does that happen?

Drafted Dareus in 2011, we signed Mario in 2012, drafted EJ and Alonso, and traded for Hughes in 2013. And in 2014 drafted Sammy Watkins. We released Mario after he gave up in 2015. They did exactly what you wanted. It just didn't work out. Unless you mean to tell me signing Mario/Dareus 1-2 years ahead of the QB is what broke it? No it broke because the QB position didn't work out.

My gut is that he wants the weaker teams in the playoffs, and the way they abused us, I believe he considers us a weaker team than Denver (But we shall see) My reasoning is last year the Pats losing to the Jets in week 16 seemed too blatant to me. He'd rather play the Jets than the Steelers in the playoffs.

Curious that the Bills did this with EJ Manuel, traded down and netted Kiko Alonso, and then the next year drafted Sammy Watkins, in the meantime had drafted Dareus, signed Mario Williams in Free agency, traded for Hughes etc, and then you criticize them as if they haven't done it that way....

That means the fanbase would have to tolerate what they interpret as a bad coach. Ruthless freaking out about 17 seasons etc, immense pressure to take the QB, but you say, "all is good get Mack, and just try again" so we are talking about multiple years of sucking. What decent coach/gm will tolerate that? Are we supposed to hire them after? How will these good coaches know we have "the guy"?

Do they fully guarantee 1 year contracts? Doesn't he get paid on a per game basis? I don't know the retiring rules, but I assume he won't get the remaining last 6 game checks right?

Nice, thanks I was thinking along the same lines. Coleman has to get back to BAU stealing from Freeman , although this Gabriel guy seems to be filling in for him with the targets. Nope, no Asiata thank god! I was considering putting him in, but wisely chose not to.

Definitely. Mostly just a joke, and not reality, but if the Pats did drop a lot of their next 5 games, it does kind of open the door for the division and another in for the playoffs. They won't though.

After hearing Brady having knee issues, and Gronk's season being over, I made the same! People's reactions were "in your dreams"

Siemian out this week for Broncos. Lynch to take over. A Broncos loss to the Jaguars would be incredible for us.

That's my biggest gripe with the Watkins complainers is that they become so very bitter at some unlucky injuries and think we are better by getting rid of him. That kind of logic is very frustrating. This guy says trade which is a step above that, but I run into consistent people who say cut him. It's like wtf.
